Exchanges: The tour of the Prince
of Wales through Ireland with his pref
ty Danish wife wearing OF the green,
has demonstrated either that his royal
highness and his consort are brave
and plucky pair, or that the people OF
Ireland are not the cowardly dynamit-
ards and assassins that they are repre-
sented to be by the brutal miscreants
who have been attempting atrocities in
London, and who have perpetrated the
inexcusible murders that have SO often
disgraced the Irish people. 1t was a
bold and wise movement for this heir
to the British throne to make this pill
grimage through the discontented OF his
realm, and thus demonstrate to the
world that he could trust to the honor
and to the manliness of Ireland. He
has done it, and returned safe. and Ire
land is the better for it. We are not
surprised to find that in Ireland assas-
sination and secret murder are not pop
ularly endorsed-such crimes are not
natural to the Irish people-and we may
assume that when committed they are
perpetrated by the most abandoned OF
criminals remaining at home, or the
more desperate who have wandered
abroad.

A Badly BOtChed Mess.

Bad Lands Cowboy: A train load Of
cattle, nine hundred and fifty head, have
been quarantined for several days at
Sentinel Butte. They belong to F. w.
Fry of Arkansas. 1t is impossible to
to learn the cause of the quarantine but
it must be on account Of Montana's
pleuro-pneumonia quarantine law. The
owner maintains that the cattle are free
from disease although they are very
poor. The whole herd was turned loose
at the Butte, orders coming from the
railroad officials to that effect. There
were no horses and only the men on the
train to aid in holding the cattle. They
are now scattered. In whatever light
this affair is viewed it is badly bOtch-
ed mess. If the cattle are free from
disease as the owner claims, and come
from healthy country, it is a great i'm
position on him. The railroad company
had no right to ship the cattle in the
first place if they were diseased and by
their being scattered at Sentinel Butte
endanger other herds There seems to
be no fear of contagion and we are
forced into the belief that the owner has
been treated unjustly. ct might also
be added that as Sentinel Butte marks
the border of Montana It is very likely
that the cattle are within the territory,
so that if the quarantine has any object
beside persecution it has been defeated
this time.-ED ENTERPRISE.)

The Loco Weed.

San Francisco Chronicle: The early
stock raisers of the far western states
and territories were, among other draw
backs, often confronted with peculiar
affection attacking their horses. The
symptoms were general emaciation,
accompanied with glaring eyes and un-
mlstakable indications of dementla.
Animals so afflicted would rush at
man or other object, with mouth wide
open and every appearance OF ungov-
ernable frenzy, rearing upon their hind
feet and striking out wildly with the
forelegs. For long time no satisfac-
tory cause for this affection was discov-
cred. The term '1oco," or crazy, was
applied to it, and an animal so afflicted
was said to be "locoed." At length it
was settled beyond doubt that feeding
upon certain plant peculiar to these
regions was the cause. This plant be-
longs to the order Leguminos;e, Of which
there are several species, all equally del
eterious in their effects. Many analyses
have been made with the view OF ascer-
tanning the active principle possessing
such peculiar powers, but with no sue
cess SO far. This plant, as it's name i'm
plies, belongs to the pea family. 1t usu-
ally has great many stalks proceeding
from strong root stock, and forms a
low bushy plant of pretty, light green.
The stalks are branching at the base
and give rise to numerous leaves and
stems, bearing flowers and pods. The
leaflets are of oval form, from half to
three-quarters of an inch in length, and
are of a shining silvery hue, from being
covered with soft silky hairs. The flow
er is of purplish, sometimes yellow
color, and has the general appearance of
the pea flower. This is succeeded by a
pod about an inch long, very smooth
and having generally two seeds. One
of the most prominent peculiarities OF
this plant is it's hardness, it's delicate
green foliage often being found growing
thriftily on the dry and barren plains
| where but little other vegetation ap-
pears. 1t is from this thriftiness and
tempting appearance that stock are
probaly led to feed upon it in the alb
sence of other grasses.
Many attempts have been made at
discovering some antidote for the poison
GUS effects of the plant, but so far un-
successfully, death generally following
from it's use in longer or shorter time,
according to the amount eaten. In Col
orado so great has been the damage
done to stock that bounty is paid fol
the destruction of the dangerous growth
It has been proved in this state, how
ever. that when an animal has not in
dulged too freely in the weed, by re
moving it at once from the locality and
feeding nothing but cultivated grass OF
hay. the evil effects will in time pass
away to great degree and the anima
may be worked, though care should bt

Cattle From the West.

During the week cattle have been going

which there are many. Every day train

The Prepared Sermon.

At one time, when the writer was
pastor of the Symmetrical Church,
the Rev. Herman Bangs was the pre-
siding elder. His appointment to
preach was for Easter Sunday. He
came and preached an admirable and
appropriate discourse on the resur-
rection OF Christ. At the close Mrs.
Anna Knapp, widow OF fourscore
years and daughter OF the Rev. Smith
Arnold, one CT the pioneers, came to
the altar, and in the hearing of the
writer thus addressed '.Uncle Heman,'
as the venerable preacher was atfec-
tionately called by those who had
known him long. .'Brother Bangs,
enjoyed your sermon very much. 1
heard you preach it forty years ago.
| liked 1t then. / heard you preach
it again about twenty-three years
ago, and it was good then, and to-day
it was as good as ever.'' ..Uncle He
man, with a look which those
who saw it will never forget-of
mingled good humor and qulzzical
spirit replied: 9Well. Sister Knapp,
has there been any change in the facts
about the resurrection of our Lord in
the last forty years? If it was good
the first time you heard it, why should
it not be just as good now?" Said the
old lady: well, Brother Bangs, we
shall soon be where you won't have
to make an argument to prove it, as
you did to day" Neither their piety
nor the inlirmlty of old age had dulled

One of those Queer ..Creeters..

Winchester, Va, Special:-In the Hugh
Merritt habeas corpus case here, for the
recovery Of his thirteen-year-old daughter
it became necessary for the physician to
give evidence as to the masculinity OF Miss
Leila Payne, sister OF Lawrence Register
Payne, the man-woman Of Virginia. The
judge decided that the examination
should be made with closed doors. It
rs reported that the physician testified
that he found Leila to be of masculine gen.
der. Mr.. Merritt, who lives at Bellaire,
Ohio, claims that Leila is not a proper
person to care for Bessie. his thirteen-, ear
old daughter. Mr.. Merritt's first wife was
a Mi IS Payne. The argument will be com
Gnued. Two years ago the story OF Vir-
ginia's man-woman was first published
and caused much gossip. The Payne fami-
~ is one OF the oldest i'm the Shcnan-
doah valley, and when the parents
died, Leila, because OF her mascu-
line proclivities, assumed charge OF
affairs. She induced the government to
make the hamlet a postottice, and she was
appointed postnistress. She opened q
grocery and hired Miss Sarah Hintr to
rum it, and Miss Payne slept with her.
One day Lydia proposed marriage to Miss
Hinton. A physician confirmed Lydia's
suspicion that she was a man. They were
married. The young lady involved in the
present case is Il sister of this man. The
change began in both when they entered
their teens, and has been gradual trans

The President and tn, Indians.

a committee waited upon the president
the other day and was addressed on the
subject OF Indian affairs. The president lis
tened attentively to the speakers, and as
>sured them OF the deep interest he had in
the Indian question.
He reviewed briefly the many difficulties
encountered in dealing with the question,
which he acknowledged was most import
ant one, and said that the great trou-
Bile in his mind, was the first prac-
teal step to be taken in improving
the condition of the Indian. Shall we give
them more schools and churches, and agri-
cultural implements for use on the res. rva-
tons, or shall we deed them lands in sever
atty. and leave them to their own resourc-
es? One trouble he found awas to get rid
OF the in luences OF the old chiefs. Then,
again, il we leave the Indians to themselves,
and one becomes angry, a loud cry goes all
over the country that we are starving the
Indians. How are we to get the Indians to
mingle with the whites? Wecertainly cannot
drive them Off their reservations. Is it better
to keep them under tutelage where they
are, or weSlld their civilization be better
accomplished i'll some other May2 The
question is surrounded with difficulties,
and the most important consideration, to
my mind, at present is, what is the most
useful thing to be done? While it might
lot be we'll for the cause to disturb the In
clans in their present homes, he believed
that the reservations would ultimately be
given to them inseveralty, and the Indians
thrown on Them own resources.

Kiss Me Goodbye. Dear.

That is the phrase heard in the hall
way of many home as the man of the
house is hurting away to exchange
daily labor for daily bread in the mart
of commerce. Sometimes 1t is the
wife who says it, sometimes infant lips
prattle the caressing word, holding up
a sweet flower face for the kiss that is
its warm sunshine of life, and the
strong man waits a moment to clasp
his treasure, and is gone; and all day
he wonders at the peace of his heart;
ct the nerve with which he meets
business losses, or bears business
crosses. The wife's kiss did it, and
he realizes that it is not wealth, or
position, or luck, that makes our happi-
ness, but the influence we bear with
us from the presence of those we love.
Kiss me goodbye! U lips that have
said it for the last time! would you
ever ask again in those pleading tones
for the kiss so tardily given? Would
we not remember that the relation the
flower bears to the universe is as care
fully provided for as that of the bright
est star; that the little action of low
ing heart goes side by side with the
deed OF heroic worth; that love is the
dew Of life; that the parting of day
may be the parting of a lifetime.
'sHow many go forth in thu morning
That never come home night!

For kind words spoken
That sorrow can ue'er set right"
