The Indian question will not down. Sec
retary Teller came before the House of Rep
resentatives on Tuesday requesting that the
Cheyennes and 4>rappahoes he disarmed.
He says that the government spends annu-
ally ON them $4,000 that might as well be
thrown into u bottomloss pit, for all the good
II does. They number G,300, have Il reservn-
ton embracing 4,297,7Ti acres of land well
adapted to grazing, and yet they show no
disposition to engage in civilized pursuits
On the contrary they can at few hours no
tice muster l,20o or 1900 fighting men with
tho best of breech-loaders and an abundance
of ammunition. To disarm them would
only postpone the real issue. Their present
condition argues that they must be treated
to more vigorous doses of the civilization
elixir.

CAMERON regns and the government ut
Harrisburg still lives.

OTTO MULLER, Of Brooklyn, gave a curl
ous reason for his breach of promise to marry
Miss Caroline Lion to the Brooklyn jury
who were trying the amount of damages the
plaintiff was entitled TO in consequence of
his violated faith. He declared on the stand
that she was not old enough, her age being
81, whereas she claimed to be 10 years older.
Otto Is manifestly of tho opinion that
woman's charms like wine, increase with
age. But those who profess to know have
never included in this commendation the
spinster class, although the reasons therefor
are by no means plain. Perhaps Otto was
trying To throw dust into the eyes of the
jury. At any rate they assessed him $500
for playing the part of gay Lothario.

can Senate does itself no credit in refusing

House dispensed with, and which it was

Republicans derisively snapped their fin
gers at the suggestion, and one of them
impudently gave notice that no reform
measures would be suggested from their
side this winter. None are expected.
Meantime the Legislature has adjourned
until next Wednesday evening; and it is
very freely given out that the committees
will be held back until after the election OF
a United States senator. The friends ol
Cameron are in complete control of the
organization, and they propose to use it tC

TO punish those who don't. The commit
tees will be framed according to the vote

embarked in this sort of business have
found in il profit, pleasure and personal
improvement.
With the increase of population in and
about the great cities of the East, and the
constant increase in the value and in price
of land within hundred on two hundred
miles of these markets, new uses must be
found for our soil, and smaller tracts
must be made to yield greater profits than
under the old system of cultivation. Such
purposes are aided and strengthened by the
experience and intelligent report of the
comparatively few and rarely unselfsh men
who form the organizations which promote
such interests.
A community is better in every way for
the culture and use of fruit and flowers.

tions should encourage the aims of the
