The WnoI-Growers.

ST. LOUIS, May 2S.-The convention
of the Wool:Growers National Aesso-
citation, adjourned sine die. A resolu-
ton reported demands the restoration
of the wool tariff of 1867. Resolutions
recite that since the alteration was made
in the import duty in 1888. 1000, 900
has been lost TO the wool growers of
America in lower prices alone, saying
nothing of the depreciation in the value
of fiocks. These figuressare based on
comparison with the prices of 1882. 1t
is announced that if the tariff is not re-
stored the sheep husbandry of the
country must be abandoned. The ac-
ton of the Golden Club is severely crit
icized. A confederation among Amer
lean producers is recommended to work
together to educate the people to the
necessity of procuring suitable pro-
tective legislation. The association de-
clares it will support only such men and
parties as favor protection. The execu--
tive committee has been ordered to meet
in Washington during the next session
of Congress.

The Apache Revolt.

WASHINGTON. May 2S.-Indian Agent
Llewellyn, of Mescalero agency, New
Mexico, telegraphed the Indian Bureau
as follows: THE Apaches under Zero
nimo are now depredating west of the
Rio Grande. Two women of Geronimo
camp came in here to-day. l have con-
fined them in the guard-heuse. Major
Vanbor II, commanding at Fort Stanton
is here to-day. The Mescaleros have
rendered him $50 men to accompany
his troops, should the hostiles come
within striking distance. There are twen-
ty-fye bucks of Victoria's band who
lived here at Mescalero three years. If
necessary. will arrest and hold them
until the trouble is over. The Mescale-
ros can be depended upon and will not
join the hostiles."
The agent has been instructed not to
arrest the Victoria Indians as long as
they are peaceable, but to keep them
under surveillance.

Many of the popular and proverbial
locutions preserved in the Talmud are
among the best and most expressive of
their kind. Vinegar, the son of wine, "
for instance, described the unpopular
son of popular father; "a box full OF
books" learned man from whose
learning the world has derived no adj
vantage; "Grapes with grape sauce, >
a discourse where the matter was neither
much nor to the point; He has words
in his backbone applied to laxative
bore; He scalds himself with luke
warm water" to the man who made a
muddle of the simplest matter intrust-
ed to his management; and "will make
the ocean sweet" to one whose preten-
sious we're as extravaganza as ill-founded.
He loses what he has and what he has
not" was said of an unfortunate man; ;
He puts his money on the horns OF a
deer" of an imprudent one; aud His
cheeks grow grass" of cunning and
impudent fellow. Exaggeration, for
which the Medians seem to have been
notorious, was referred to as making
camels dance in half-pint pot" and
plausible dexterity of argument as
"drawing a column through the eye OF
a needle"
A few miscellaneous maxims will
perhaps, fttingly conclude the present
article; "Wisdom needs no herald, F"
reminds us that a good proverb should
speak for itself; and the following selec-
ton, while fulfilling this necessary cen
dition, will probably contain something
to suit all palates: The pig grows fat
where the lamb starves;" "Spare your
salt and give your meat to the dogs -
HE who owns the balcony supports it
most" "If you follow my calling you
must wear my clothes;" when clouds
are heavy, blessings Gomez 1.-The sot
looks at the cup, the host at the money

LONDON. May 2s.-The Baptist mis-
sionary society gave breakfast to-day
to Stanley, African explorer. In an
address, Stanley was thanked for open
ing up the way to the Christianization
OF Africa, and for helping missionaries
to secure stations and TO extend the
Influence of their teachings. Stanley, in
his reply, said he was glad to have had
an opportunity of helping missionaries
and OF obtaining in return their help to
teach the natives. Formerly he i'll I'M
derstood the missionaries, however,
since that he had seen Livingstone; he
recognized in him the type of a roble
and spiritual manhood. The real work
OF the missionary was hard, his priva-
tons great, his worldly reward small
In conclusion, Stanley expressed the
hope that the Congo country would
soon be well supplied with missionaries
and urged the society to be very care
full about the kind of men they sent out
as missionaries to Africa "Donot," he
said, send young men without first
having taught them the practical life
necessary to success, the same as YOU
teach children you wish to live long;
dead missionaries are of no more value
than other dead men. Gordon dead is
valueless. If he had lived, the civiliza-
ton of the Soudan. which received its
death blow in Gordon's murder, would
have been dawning, and would have
seen the summer of civilization dawning

BosTox, May 2s.-The suit against
John L. Sullivan, brought by his wife
for divorce, attracted an immense audi
ence OF the pugillst's admirers. The
testimony given by Mrs. Sullivan and
other witnesses for the plaintiff went to
show that Sullivan was abusive and adj
dicted to the excessive use OF liquor and
that he had beaten his wife on several
occasions. Sullivan testified thathe had
never been drunk, though often full. !"
He swore that he had never struck his
wife. and the latter was in the habit OF
drinking whenever he did. She left him
on December 9th, 1884, and he hadnever
seen her since. till he met her in court,
When asked if he had any trouble ABOUT
her relations, he made the following re,
ply, which made general laugh, and
even caused the judge to smile several
times Il had no objection to supporting
two or three of her relatives, but did
not propose to support the whole State
