Growth Of Cereals.

IATkHISHW ITHVtIef,J
From careful researches in Russia, Kowa-
lewsld has found that cereals grow faster In
the north than in the south For instance,
oats and spring wheat take 1913 days and
barley 10 days to ripen about the southern
province OF kherson, and only 90 ss and 9s
days at Arkhangelsk in the north. The in
termediate regions show intermediate diff
ferences The cause is the greater length OF
the daily exposure to sunlight in the high
latitudes. which more than compensates for
the difference in temperature In favor of
the southern regions In each latitude the
growth OF cereals 10 more rapid In the east

Disorder in Public Places.

To the Editor OF the indianapolis Journal
A casual visit to one of the principal theaters
on Saturday evening last was a very disagree
able surprise to many who have heretofore felt
legitimate pride in the order and decency of
your city. The first balcony was quite well
filled. tho majority being boys and men, with
quite fair sprinkling of ladies' however Not
a policeman or official appeared there to keep
order, and the result was pandemonium-yells,
cat-calls stamping of feet, whisting as an ac-
compartment to the orchestral efforts,
interlarded not infrequently with vile and
indecent remarks we'll as slang
phraseology. These causes of complaint
were more than sufficient to lead a number of
people TO withdraw nor was it until a few min
utes to ten that supposed official came in and
shouted out, Stop that stamping" | was with
party of four or FIVE ladies, several of whom
were from a Southern city, and to say that we
retired with poor opinion of your city disci-
pine and ideas of propriety hardly expresses it.
have never known such an exhibition even in
Ihe old Bowery, Of New York DIsaUsT.

A Study in Circles.

70 the Editor of the Indianapolis journal:
Numbers Of indianapolis people have attended
the worlds fair at New Orleans the past winter
and this spring, and have returned laden with
the unanimous opinion that the Crescent City, if
not the very ilthiest is of the ithiest places
they ever encountered. In the light of this
wholesale depreciation of New Orleans, would
like to ask these returned tourists whether they
saw anything there which could, in common par
lance, ''hold candle to our own Circle Park as
an exponent of dirt and disorder. 1t is true New
Orleans is not above reproach as house
keeper. She has way of singing tin-cans, dead
chickens, and departed goats into her cutters
which fastidious people cannot entirely approve;
yet her public parks, compared with those &C our
own city. under northern skies and amid more
stimulating surroundngs-are things of beauty
and joys forever. Stroll through Lafayette Park
or jackson Square in New Orleans, any pleasant
morning. The grass is clipped closely and
kept neatly trimmed along the walks; respect
able-looking people are basking in the sunshine
on the benches, and paper or trash
is anywhere to be seen Tivoi Circle,
in which the beautiful Lee statue stands.
kept Clean asphaltum walks run around the
circle. and up to the base of the shaft The
grass is beyond criticsm-nature's own velvet
Tidy nurse maids with pretty babies iE their
charge, are on the DencneS, older children are
playing about. and the stately statue of Lee pre-
sides with manly grace over an attractive spot
which is credit to New Orleans. By way of
contrast, investigate our own Circle Park Look
at its horrid and disreputable halo of express
wagons; it's rugged grass plats and misersbly
kept walks; its litter of paper and sticks and in
the center, decorated with tobacco streams and
rejected guilds, the statue OF Morton, which was
presumably erected to honor one of Indiana's
greatest men. The condition in which this park
is kept, or, rather, not kept, is a
shame and disgrace not only
to the city, but to the State, beside
being daily insult to Governor Morton's statue
and those whose money erected tt. For decen
cy's sake alone the horrible express wagon stand
should be removed to some part of the city
which does not pretend to be ornamental, and
the park should be kept in a tidy state, which
would encourage better class of idlers than now
lounge about its much be whitfield benches. The
press of this city has, IN many instances, brought
about valuable reforms in municipal affairs by
prolonged and patient reteraton of unpalatabIe
facts, and this is written in the fervent hope
of stimulating lively public row in regard to
the disgusting and discredtable appearance of
our most central park When our own door yard
has been cleaned up. we can afford to remark
that New Orleans is very dirty city Until
that time, however, a discreet silence best be-
comes us. PUBLIC SPIRIT.
