A Public Donation Suggested.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal
The reference made in to-day's Journal by
Rev. Oscar c. McColloch, relative to supplying
the wants of the destitute in our city, calls to
mind the method successfully carried out by
Toledo and some other cities to raise contribu-
tons for the needy, which l had hoped some one
else would propose. but as no one has, to my
knowledge, / will make the suggestion; and
that is to get up public donation. party, to be
held in some suitable hail. and arrange to have
an entertainment in the way of good speakers,
music, etc. Let every one who can bring some

The Cincinnati Post states an impor-
tant truth, by remarking that the agree
ment of England and Russia, refer
ring their disputes to arbitration was
the most important act of European
diplomacy for a generation. 1t would
have been impossible thirty years ago.
1t was unheard of until America and
England set the example at Geneva in
1872. The United States is peaceful
nation; the European coutries are
essentially quarrelsome, and what SEEM
ed easy and natural for us has been
hard and unusual there, so that the
victory of this western gospel of peace
is all the more remarkable. Now that
the fashion has been set by the Lion
and the Bear there should be no diff
Guilty in following it by the others and
though it is too much to expect that
war will be done away in Europe, it
surely ought to be less common, and,
their great standing armies ought to
be reduced and burden lifted off the
people.

ARTEMUS WARD.
How the HumOrist Relieved Some
Printers in Trouble.
TPpolasido

lEngesluc.I
1t was back in the fifties; we were all
rooming in 'old d." our bachelor bar
racks, in the upper story of business
block on Superior street, in Cleveland.
A gay party we were-Sam and George,
Alf and Harry-and our third-story
den became headquarters for lots of
witty and jovial boys, who made it al
most club-room in their nightly visits.
Among the most welcome was Charley
Brown, "Artemus Ward,n as he was
then just earning the sobriquet from his
quaint series of humorous articles in
the Pain Dealer, on which he was To-
cal editor. Brown, or Artemus, as we
already began to call him, was excess
sively fond of practical jokes, and the
fun made among the circle of his friends
will long be remembered.
One night, among the small hours,
Artemus burst into our rOom-the door
was always on the latchLrushed to the
window, threw it up, and, leaning out,
screamed in the shrillest of feminine
voices:
"Help! help. Murder! Help. Muir
derw
A rush up the staircase followed,
Wnile Artemus slipped into the nearest
bed, and half score of police dashed
into the room and summoned us to ac-
count for the screams.
Artemus sleepily assured the blue
coated gentry that no born woman was
secreted in our premises, and so well
enacted the sleepy astonishment of
awakened virtue that, after prowling
in vain about the room, the guardians
of the peace withdrew, and we heard
them ransacking the building for quite
a while seeking for the cause of the
alarm.
When all was quiet, Artemus ex-
planned the rumpus he had made.
Some three or four printers, who worked
on the Plain Dealer, had been imbib-
ing too freely, and Charley Brown COM
ing up found them in the hands of the
police, being conducted to the calaboose.
Anxious to rescue them, he conceived
and executed the ruse. The piercing
screams of the female in distress, and
the eager hope of unearthing tragedy,
drew away the attention of the night
hawks, and they let the birds in the
hard loose to pursue the one in the
bush.
The liberated printers made their
shortest way home, while we denizens
of Room q enjoyed the joke as Arte-
mus's last.

Very Remarkable Recovery.

Mr.. Geo. V. Willing, of Manchester,
Mich, writes: any wife has been al
most helpless for five years, so helpless
that she could not turn over in bed
alone. She used two bottles of Electric
Bitters, and is so much improved, that
she is able now to do her work"
Electric Btters will do all that is
claimed for them. Hundreds of testi-
monials attest their great curative
powers. Only fifty cents bottle at

In keeping horse fat, there is as
much in the driver as in the feed. "A
horse we'll curried and rubbed with a
wooden rag afterwards, is sure to make
IL sleek-coated horse, and when we'll
groomed is, we may say, half fed. A
cross and nervous driver will fill the
horse with fear and dread, and will
rapidly run his horse down. Use any
animal kindly. Always be firm and
make it mind, but tnever get excited. A
coll-headed driver makes long-headed
horse.

Eggs will bear transportation almost
any distance if well packed. They have
been sent repeatedly all the way from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, and have
been shipped from England to America
and Matched well. The packing mater
ial may consist of oat chaff, coarse dry
wheat bran or the sweepings of barn
floors consisting of clover leaves and
grass seed with the hulls on. Fine soft
hay, cut very short in the hay-cutter,
answers good purpose. Screw the lid
upon the box; do not nail it on. An
upright handle on the box is a good
thing, for it serves to keep the express
men from piling other boxes upon it.

In brief, some of the principal mis-
takes made by those who attempt to
grow fruit are:
l. A lack ofpractical knowledge.
2. Devoting too much land to one
fruit.
3. Setting more trees and plants
than circumstances will allow proper
care for.
4. Neglect in cultivation.
5. Ignorance of the value of ma
nures and how to use them.
6. Selecting varieties which are not
adapted to the locality.
I. Purchasing inferior plants to save
few dollars. which will surely be lost
in the end.
