dustry and Bad Eggs.


dustry and Bad Eggs.
New York Journal,
''Farmer" Hayes, as his neighbors in FIRE.
mont O., call ex-President Rutherford
Burchard Hayes came to town and put up
at the Fifth Avenue tavern on Broadway,
opposite Madison Square.
Not many farmers stop at the Fifth Ave-
nue. hotel, but Farmer Hayes is trustee of
the John F. Slater fund for the education
of the freedmen, and the annual meeting
took place at that hotel.
''What is your opinion, Mr.. Hayes, Of the
efforts now being made to introduce civil
service reform into the federal administra-
tion?"
Il was very much afraid at one time last
fall that politics were going to interfere with
the business interests of the American
farmers, but. happily, the danger was
averted."
''Do you refer to business In general or
any special Industry"
81 refer more particularly to the poultry
business, in which so many people in the
western reserve are largely Interested"
II have the finest old hens,' continued
Farmer Hayes, growing enthusiastic over
the remembrance which the subject sug-
gested, Gin Western Ohio, and they are all
good layers, too.'
81 suppose, Mr.. Hayes, that you are an
expert in handling eggs?"
'sAh, yes; nobody can fool me with a bad
egg Sometimes a smart stOrekeeper tries
to get two or three ahead of me OH the
count, by claiming them to be bad eggs, but
it is very difficult to get ahead of me. In
deed, l may say that when it comes down
to question Of counting I never get left. :"
''HOw does the price of spring chickens
in Fremont compare with New York;"
Il regret to say that we are obliged to
part with our fine birds for sixteenth of a
cent less on the pound"
''HOw do they compare as to their eating
qualities?"
''Well, I can't answer as to the quality
OF Fremont spring chickens, as us farmers
can't afford to eat such expensive food. We
are only plain people, you know.
''But took advantage of the opportunity
afforded by thai benevolent man, Mr..
Slater, to fill up on spring chickens at the
Fifth Avenue, and must admit that they
are toothsome and juicy morsel."
(Which way do you prefer spring chicken,
Mr. Hayes?"
"Oh, fried, fried, of course. Every
-AicHu VI tllo IIe0ullldI IOfoo LIEU CulChell,
and [ am told that even the peor freedman
himself is not averse to bite Of fried
chicken"
''How long do you intend to remain in
New YOrk?"
LAS long as the fried chickens hold out,
Or rather the Slater fund for fried chicken,
at the Fifth Avenue hotel.''
At this point the conversation was inter-
rupted by the approach of tall, hungry
looking man, with a lOng-tailed coat and
white necktie, who told AIr. Hayes that
dinner was ready, when the latter hastily
bid the reporter good-day and disappeared
through the dining-room door.

Never!

Never make tea in tin pot. The tan
min, which is acid, attacks the tin and pro-
duces poison,
Never use water which has stood in a
cad pipe over night. Not less than a
wooden bucketful should be allowed to
ruin.
Never use water from a stone reservoir
for cooking purposes.
Never allow fresh meat to remain in pa
per; it absorbs the juices.

Crank Epistles to the Seed Bureau.

Special 10 Ine OlODe.
WASHINGTON, June S.-''Please send
me game rooster and two hens," wrote a
Texas correspondent Of the department Of
agriculture few days ago. This letter is
fair sample of large numbers which
are received at the department. They
come with addresses fully as queer
as their contents. ''TO the boss
agriculturist" and ''to the boss seed man, )"
are favorite superscriptions. They are for
all sorts of things, hardly excepting canary
birds and woolen blankets. Still some of
them are sharp and Quickwitted. One man
wrote laconically for an annual report.
The clerk who answered the letter
having more leisure than sense
replied at some length. He
stated the number Of years which the de-
partment had been organized, the reports
which had been issued, their characteristics
and concluded with an inquiry as to what
report was meant Back came the answer:
II don't care a damn what year.
I want it for scrap book"
1t will be news to some that
400, 900 copies of the agricultural re-
port are printed annually. Nine
tenths are distributed to senators
and representatives and One-tenth
remains in the department.. One congress-
man is known to have sold half of his
quota, 80, 600 copies, for cents volume
to secondhand dealer.

CHICAGO, June s. A party consisting
of Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen B. Elkins OF New
York, Mr.. and Mrs. J. S. Clarkson OF Des
Moines, Ia.; Col r. G. Kerans and Col. J.
C. Normal of ST. Louis arrived at the
Grand Pacific hotel yesterday and left
in the evening for st. Louis. MIR.
Ellzins met Mr.. Clarkson at Des Molnes
and the trio took trip TO the Northwest,
coming from Minneapolis to-day. ''Ihere
is no politics in this trip" said Mr.. Clark
son, in conversation with reporter
for the GLOBE. There is nothing
new in Iowa politics. Gen.
Larrabee is at present ahead in the guber-
material race, although there are good
many in the field. Col. Wolf is developing
considerable strength. The liquor question
will enter to considerable extent in the
contest this fall. Republicans are in favor
of giving the liquor law
A FAIR TRIAL,
while the Democrats are in favor of repeal
ing it at once I do not think there will be
any Prohibition ticket in the field unless st.
John goes up there in the interest of the
Democrats" Mr.. Clarkson was ques-
toned concerning the dispatch sent from
Des Moines to President Cleveland saying
that Logan would defeat MIN in 1888 and of
which Mr.. Clarkson was charged with be-
ing the author. He emphatically denied
any connection with the matter, and said
that he was not in the state at the time it
was sent. II think the Republicans viii
carry New York this fall, =" said Mr.. Elkins,
''but the fight will be very hard one. The
whole state ticket is to be elected and a
successor chosen to Senator Miller. There
are several candidates for the Republican
nomination
FOR GOVERNOR,
among them Frank Hiscock and Secretary
of State Carr" 'sDoes Roswell P.
Flower stand any chance for the Democratic
nomination." 'sI do not think so. [ un-
derstand that Cleveland favors Erastus
Corning Of Albany, and believe he will get
the nomination." ''What about the state
ments that you will endeavor to run Blaine
again in 1882" ''There is moth
ing in them whatever. They came
from Washington, believe, and as
matter of fact 1 have not been in Washing
ton for two months. No. there is too wide
a chasm in American politics between now
and 1883 to be talking of any presidential
candidates. Two many things are liable to
happen between now and then.

A Scamp by Profession.

DETROIT, June S.-Narsailus Edison,
aged 60, claiming relationship to the fa-
NOUS inventor of that name and claiming
to own cattle ranch at Independence,
Mo-, spent the month of March in Wind
sor, Detroit's Canadian suburb. He became
engaged to widow, Mrs. Mary Burton,
the time for the wedding being set at June
1. He induced Mrs. Burton to sell her
property so that they could Immediately go
West. Edison took trip West, keeping
up close correspondence with his affianced
from Kansas City. While there he asked
for 81, 900, having lost $780, The re-
quest caused suspicion and Mrs. Burton
began an investigation which resulted in
the discovery Of another prospective
bride at Simcoe, Ont. Further investiga-
ton brought letter and photograph of
Edison from Port Burwell, Ont. The
writer said she was the wife of Marsalms
Edison and that they had eight children,
nearly all now grown. She had not seen
her husband for four years. He had made
her sign over to him all her property and
then deserted his family. Another COM
municatiOn from Trenton, ILL.,, was appar-
emily written by young wife and the con-
tents were most touching. 'YOur loving
little one, Lou Edison," was the signature,
and he was imDlored to come home, as she
was in destitute circumstances. Edison re-
turned to Windsor, Saturday, and was az
rested, but these later facts not then being
known he was released and left immedi-
ately for parts unknown. Mrs. Burton loses
ST, 900 by the episode.
