John M'Cullough's Wife.

One Of John McCullough's supports.
the man who was with him during his
last stage act, tells me that he is gettin g
better, and that his wife IL waiting on
him. SAYS this man: 1t is a mistake
to suppose that John Mccullough has
had so much trouble with his wife. She
loves him dsvotsdly, and he has support
cd her and visited her now and then for
years. when the world thought the two
saw nothing OF one another. when Nc
Cullough and his wife were married
they were nearer par intellectually
than they are now. But Mccullough
kept rising, and his wife stood still I'M
til at last John grew far away from her
He went to see her however, all the
time, and she continued to leve him. One
day busybody among the women OF
her acquaintance called upon Mrs. Me-
CullOugh, and straightway began to
abuse John Said she: They say John
never comes to see you. have no use
for such men that treat their wives in
shat wayl l think they ought to bt

Here Mrs. Mccullough, who had
grown red in the face, and was leaning
over looking up The street., SAID: MADAM
do you see that man walking there
several blocks away?"
1.-THE woman said she did.
"'WelP continued Mrs. MeCulloug. :

The Convict Question.

The convict question assumes as many
different phases as there are systems
in vogue. In the United states it is
being discussed with reference to the
effect Of convict labor on the wages OF
free wOrkingmen, and there is also much
agitation IN some sections about the al
legeG abuse Of the cOnvicts. There seems
to be a strong public sentiment in many
parts Of the country in favor OF so chang
ing the convict systems Of the different
States that the cOnvicts shall not perform
any labor that will tend even indirectly
to reduce the wages of free laborers and
artisans. or to lessen the demand for free
labor. How they shall be disposed of to
satisfy this sentiment it is by no means an
easy matter 10 determine.
II the sentiment in favor OF the kid
glove policy of treating cOnYicts with
great gentleness is TO be satisfied, as well
as that above alluded to, it viii be neces-
sarv TO devise some kind of model hotel in
connection with the penitentiarles OF the
| different States. The walls should be
covered with vines and flowers, the cells
provided with Eastlake or some other
/ fashionable furniture, and brlc-a-orac,
| parlors established, and reading rooms,
\ billiard halls, skating Kinks, croquet
! grounds. etc, fitted up. French cooks
/ should Of course be employed, and the
| comfort OF the prisoners looked after IN
! every conceivable manner. Every pre-
/ caution should be taken to prevent the
| c0nvicts from performing any useful
/ labor. and they should not be allowed
] even to enter on the study Of the profess
| sions or of art. lest they should compete
to some extent with honest persons in
those departments Of employment.
! Before the schemes sre put into opera
| ton 1t may be we'll for the people OF the
| United States to consider how they work
in Europe. An item is going the rounds
which saws: ssPrisons in Luxembourg
| have become such popular resorts that
many persons have committed petty Of
| lenses merely TO qualify for admission.
! The authorities have therefore found 1t
/ necessary to diminish the attractlVeness
/ Of the prison-hOuses. and have ordered that
/ all habitual drunkards and other petty
| offenders shall henceforth be strictly kept
/ on bread and water" This seems TO in
dictate that it is not good policy to make
! prison life too attractive. 1t has long been
/ a study in many sections to keep the aims
/ houses in such manner as not TO give
/ any special announcement to pauperism.
/ Prison reformers may, perhaps, learn
! some useful lessons from the success of
! the Luxembourg prisons and the prac-
] tice in different almshOUses.

No Cremation Craze.

There were indications year ago that
a cremation craze was about 20 sweep
over the country. The subject was dis
cussed in almost every city, town and
village. and il seemed that large num-
her Of crematOries would soon be erected.
So far as the question was treated in the
public prints the weight of argument
seemed TO be decidedly in favor oil the
cremationists-in fact few journals ear
nesuy opposed them. II appears, how
ever, that comparatively few converts
were made among the masses OF the peo-
pie. and though there are quite a number
of cremation societies the incineratiOn Of
dead bodies is still looked upon as beyond
the ordinary course Of affairs. and regard
ed bv thousands with feelings akin TO
horror.
While the LeMOyne CrematOry at
Washington. Pa, has been closed, only
one public establishment OF the kind has
vet been opened in the United States
that at Lancaster, Pa. Very few bodies
have been reduced TO ashes in the latter,
although it has been ready for use for
several weeks. This is more remarkable
from the fact that there were claimed to
be p large number of subjects in different
parts OF the country awaiting its compile
ton. New York, Chicago, New Orleans,
Boston, and perhaps some other cities,
will have crematories within the next two
or three years, but there seems no reason
to believe that the investments VIII De

M Newmanite Chmrch.

A san Francisco special to the New
York Herald tells of another new depart
ure OF the Rev. DIR. J. p. Newman, who
recently went to the former city to preach
the $4,000 funeral sermon Of the son OF
Leland Stanford. 1t is stated that he Will
soon found a new church, for the use Of
which body $4,000 tabernacle viii be
erected. The building is to be model OF
architectural beauty, and the best musI-
cal talent that can be procured will be
EMPLOYED. 1t is the intention to spare no
pains OF. expense or device TO make the
church and the services attractive, ana
every means will be used to entice sin
ners from the paths Of vice, not to ''fright-
en- them into repentance and salyatlon,'
according to the orthodox methods.
The patron saints of the church, says
the telegram, will be Mrs. Leland STAN
ford and Mrs. Charles Croker, and its
snecial mission is to be the easy saliva
ton of the poor. The seats are to be free.
1t is to have no synod, or conference, or
creed, but it is to be nOn-sectarian, liberal,
free, and spiritualism is to be practiced as
we'll as taught.
Nfl course the Kew III. new man 10 ~ "
the high priest, the law-giver and the
chief medium. He will doubtless be pro-
vided with an almost palatial residence,
and while he ministers in spiritual
things" will be ministered to in temporal
things-in other words, he will be enabled
by a magnificent salary to live in style
the very opposite of that in which the
Saviour of men lived when he was IN the
flesh upon the earth and went about doing
good.
1t canuot be doubted that this new
church Will become immensely popular
in san Francisco, which place has never
heretofore taken much stock in religion
as commonly promulgated. OF course the
Rev. Doctor will soon have a large fol
lowing, but it is doubtful whether his
church will greatly benefit the poor. His
doctrines and services will probably be so
liberal and attractive that his tabernacle
will soon become the resort Ofthe rich and
fashionable. and there Will be little room
for those who cannot afford to wear rings
and fine apparel to church. 1t would
come awkward, perhaps, for the Rev. Dr..
Newman to preach to the poor, and II Will
be as we'll for them and better for him
that they give place TO the butterflies VINO
are always attracted by glitter and glare.

rbe Truth About the Murdered ST.
crobes


DR.. Duggan, of the Johns Hopkins Uni
versity, and DR.. Sternberg, OF the United
States army, says the Baltimore Sun,
have for some time been experimenting
at the Johns Hopkins University for the
American Health ASSOCIATION IN COM
mercial disinfectants and other sub
stances that may be used as disinfecting
agents. All the principal disinfectants
in the market have been submitted 70
trial and their value as germicides de-
termIned. Corrosive sublimate IN the
proportion of one part to 1.OOO parts OF
water is found to destroy all known germs.
A solution of chloride of lime in the pro-
portion of one part to 100 parts OF water
is equally effective. Many of the COM
mercial disiufectants in common use were
found to be Enthusiastically.
DIR. SternbeTg recently visited Brook
lyn, at the request of the Health Othcer
of New York, to make experiments IN the
disinfectiOn of rags in bales. The New
York Times of Feb. 9 states that these
experiments We're made upon cholera and
smallpox germs. This is a mistake. The
object of the experiment was to prevent
the introduction of cholera germs into
this country. 1t would be entirely I'M
iustifiable to import cholera germs even
TOR experimental purposes, and it is
hoped that there are no living cholera
germs in this country to-day. Certainly
DIR. Sternberg has none in his possession.
The New York experiments were made
upon the germs of anthrax, an infectious
disease of the lower animals, and upon
certain other harmless bacteria. The re-
suit of the experiment was entirely IN
favor of dislnfecting by superheated
steam, and showed that sulphurous acid
gas was entirely unreliable for the dIsin-
fection OF RAGS in bales.

High Caste in Germany


The parents OF Prince Henry of Batten-
berg were great losers by the death of the
late Empress of Russia, who used to
minister to their wants. Their marriage
was a morganatic one, the lady having
had something to do with Poland; and it
is to be assumed that the politics of her
family were sound, as l believe that her
brother was executed for having taken
part in an instruction in that country.
These morganatic marriages are perfectly
valid, and are the outgrOwth of the caste
distinctions which prevail in Germany.
They simply mean that if man marries a
woman of inferior caste to himself the
children belong to the caste of the mother
and not to that of the father. Thus the
father of Prince Henry being royal and
the mother noble, the children are noble
and not royal. Prince Henry and his
elder brother, Prince Louis, were Counts,
and they were created Princes. The lat
ter title, however, does not alter their
caste; indeed, both in Germany and in
France, Duke has the pas over Prince
who is not member Of a royal family.
In Germany royal families come first,
then reigning families who are not royal,
then mediatized families, then the no
bilitv. Those who belong to neither of
these castles are termed mot born" being
supposed to be Of such inferior clay that,
like TOpsy they grew.

proat IN rohneco Culture.

The attention OF farmers in this and al
domino states is being turned to some
axtent IN tobacco culture. Very lew,
however raise any tobacco for the mar
ket. but it is probable that many expert
ments for the purpose of determining
whether the crop is q profitable one OF
not will be instituted this year.
1t is stated that the progress OF tobacco
culture in North Carolina has been
marked by a steady improvement IN the
financial condition Of the farmers, whose
profits are said to range from $1eO to S4OV
per acre. The figures look unreasonable,
but there is not much doubt that tobacco
is one of the most profitable crops tha'
can be raised by Southern farmers. Inc
prosperity Of the tobacco planters oil VIZ
ginia. kentucky and Tennessee Is pro
verbal. though it seems that the psrllai
exhaustion of the lands OF the FORMER
State has considerably reduced the
proftabIeness Of the crop there. Nesi
Virginia is now producing eohsluer Ao-e
quantities Of tobacco.
Tobacco has been raised on a small
scale with profit in South Carolina
Patches OF the weed have been cultivated
for home consumption in Georgia almost
ever since the first settlement of the coun
try. and in parts Of Florida it has Ions
been successfully grown.
A tobacco crop is an expensive one
1t requires heavy fertilization, thorough
preparation OF the soil, almost constan
''worming," and careful cultivation
while the harvesting and curing Of th'
crop requires experience ana watchful
ness. The yield is usually from 500 Il
700 pounds per acre, while 1000 pounds
and over are frequently produced. Lea
tobacco is quoted in Richmond at from
s. per hundred and upwards according t
classification, fancy wrappers beini
worth $50.
1t would doubtless pay farmers in thi
section Of the Union to plant each al
| acre or two Of tobacco in order to INT
out something about the crop from actua
experience.
