A Bulgarian HercuIes.

In the Bulgarian village of Ostrova,
correspondent of the Freie PreSSe
witnessed the exploits of q rustic ath-
lete who could make his fortune in
any North American circus. He snap
ped an inch tow by passing one loop
over his neck and shoulders, and the
other around his bended knee, and
then Strengthening out with an effort
that turned his forehead into clump
of wrinkles. With an end of the same
tow he then got hitch around sixty
pound chunk of limestone, and, after
giving it few pendulum swings, whirl-
ed it around his head like q slungshot.
a boy attendant then handed him
stone Jug of the heaviest caliber, which
he wrapped up in shawl, and chuck
ed between his crossed arms and his
chest.
will you pay for it if 1 break it?"
he asked, after giving the bundle a
preliminary hug.
Coppers dropped N from all sides,
and under the next hug the massive
stoneware collapsed like an egg-shell.
Samson next seized wheelbarrow by
the end of the handles.
VINO Will give me norm IL l. let
him sit in here and lift this thing the
way hold it?"
No one seeming disposed to volun-
teer, Samson made his boy get aboard
and hold the limestone rock between
his knees. Seizing the barrow at the
very extremity of the handles, he rails
ed it clean off the ground, held it out
at arms length for at least five sec
ands, and then lowered it without al
lowing the front end to tip single
inch. He then produced y large grain
sack, and offered to bag any fellow
man in less than ten minutes for a bet
of five against two florins. A broad
shouldered raftsman accepted the
challenge on condition that the mata-
dor should refrain from using his
clenched fists. A ring was formed,
and the raftsman proved tough Gus
TONER but in spite of all his kicking
aud bracing the champion finally got
a lock-grip around his arms, and in
the next moment ensacked his person
from head to heels, amidst the thun-
dering plaudits of the rustic specta-
tors,

Americas Billions.

The total wealth OF this country, now
the richest in the world, is reported at
$43, 500, 900, 900, in population of 50,-
100000, with total Of II, 500, 900 pro-
ducers, says Rev. DR.. Behrends. An
enormous sum in the aggregate, repre-
senting, however, the accumulations of
$50 years, much of it in land, build
ings, and machinery.
An equal division would give to each
man, woman, and child capital OF
only $50, much of it relatively worth
less TO the individual owner, or 81, 500
to each producer. The latter sum
represents the limit of average wealth
attainable. There is no more to be
had.
The same result is emphasized in
analyzing the annual production. The
most careful estimates place this at
so, 100000, 600 annually. From this
must be deducted $700, 900, 600 paid in
taxes, 81, 300, 900, 900 to make good the
annual wear and tear of the means of
production, leaving $1,000, 900, 900 to
be divided among 50,000,000 consum-
ers, without allowing anything for in
terest or invested capital or for its
increase. Allowing five per cent. for
these, the net production is reduced to
So, 725, ,000,000
Throwing capital out of the account,
there is only $160 year for each in
habitaLt, or $l15 if capital is entitled
to dividend-an average of thirty-one
to forty-four cents day.
Forty cents day must suffice, on
the average, to feed, clothe and shelter
the people of this country. Or, di-
viding the actual production among
the actual workers, the average in
come will be between 1927 and $475 q
year.
Three hundred and fifty dollars
year must buy bread, raiment, pay
house rent, and provide margin for
saving in every family of three per-
sons; 50 day is far above the average
income that the productive energy of
the country can pay. He who secures
it belongs to the privileged classes,
with many, perhaps, above him, but
many more below him; and every man
belongs to the bloated plutocracy,
against whom socialism urges its cru
sade, who owns 80, 500 worth of proper
ty, or who receives more than $400 year
for his work.

Tho Agricultural College.

The annual report of the State Board of
Agriculture for 1885 has just been issued
from the State printing office, and is ready
for distribution. It contains the accounts
of the Agricultural College for the fiscal
year ending September 80, 1885, together
with the reports of the President and other
officers of the college. The papers that
have been issued as bulletins during the
year also appear in the report, as expert
ments on ensilage and the ripening of
wheat have been reprinted from former
reports. These papers, with the report of
the State Agricultural Society, make avol-
ume of nearly 300 pages.
Owing to delay in printing reports the
papers read ut the Farmers Institutes of
any year have appeared the following sum-
mer in the report bearing the date of the
preceding year. In order to bring better
adjustment between title and contents, as
well as to better carry out the law regard
ing the reports, the papers read at the in
stitutes last winter are omitted from the
report, and will appear in the next one,
which it is expected will be ready for dis
tribution in December next
The tables show the following facts con-
cerning the financial condition of the col
lege: BY inventory at the close of the last
fiscal year the property at the college il
valued at $382, ,422.48. The fund held in
trust by the State now amounts to
1884, ,7SS.27, and there is still due
S1l2, ,999.G2 on purchase money tor land.
SO that the interest bearing endowment
amounts TO 1927, ,7S7.89. This fund is de-
rived from the sale of land given by Con-
gress in 1882 for agricultural and me-
chlnical colleges. OF the 235,000 acres
given by Congress there still remain unsold
l25,000 acres, so that in course Of
time the endowment may equal or
exceed a million of dollars. Michigan
has shown much more wisdom in the
management of her trust, and is one Of the
few that have any land left. Most of the
ates Immediately realized on their land.
but at such low rates that the total amount
was small. No income was received from
this source until 1860, and since then it has
mounted up from $50 to $4,000. BY the
terms of the trust the principal can never
be diminished, and neither the principal
nor interest used for the purchase or repair
of any real estate or building.
The lands still belonging to the college
are distributed In the several counties as

A NIGHT IN A CAVERN.
BY WALTER CLARENCE.
CHAPTER L

CHAPIER l.
once found myself in that wretched posi-
ton 30 humorously and pathetically described
by Washington Irving in his sketch Book,
viz, confined by stress of weather at coun-
try inn. Fortunately, my rainy day at an
inn" was shared by haf dozen other travel
ers; and misfortune, when shared by others,
loses half its sting
II was in the days of travelling by stage, and
the rain had fallen 80 heavily, and for 80 long
a time, that the rivers and streams were swol-
len. bridges we're washed away, and the coach
roads rendered in many places impossible.
There was no help for 1t, 30 we philosophical
ly resolved to make ourselves as comfortable
as possible under the circumstances. My
companions i'll misfortune were, / believe,
without exception, Of the class known as COM
mercial travellers, OF, to give them their more
vulgar appellation, ~bagmen," class of men
used to the vicissitudes OF the Groad," and
from the very nature Of their occupation,
courteous, accommodating, and genial in their
habits and manners.
When the day closed in we seated ourselves
before the ample fireplace, and having called
for the best cheer the house could afford, soon
became 80 social and cheerful that we forgot
all about the weather, and ceased to vex our
minds uselessly, in consequence OF the un-
avoidable delay.
The song and Jest we're passed around, and
as these men generally contrive to collect
fund of anecdotes in the course of their various
poregrlnations the evening passed rapidly and
pleasantly away We sat up late and pre-
sumo il was the approach of midnight which
led some one of the party TO turn the converse
ton upon the subject of ghosts Several re-
lated stories about tho appearance of ghosts
which they had hard from others, but no one
present asserted that he had seen ghost him
SELF, and all ridiculed the idea of the reality Of
supernatural appearances; all but one elderly
man, who had remained silent while the con-
versation was going forward At length he
spoke.
Gentlemen" said he, Il once, Ike your
selves, ridiculed the idea of the appearance OF
ghosts. Almost everybody docs, though, at
the same time, many who are most persistent
in ridicule would shrink from passing through
a lonely churchyard at midnight, or from pat g.
ing the night alone in the vaulted chambers of
a ruined or deserted castle; in fact from voluD-
tarily placing themselves in a position where,
according TO tradition, apparitions are most
likely TO be met with.
IL said once ridiculed the idea Of the ap-
pearance of ghosts. do not mean to infer by
this that am now perfectly satisfied OF their
ex stence; but, il you please, will relate an
adventure which befeil ma many years ago,
and what followed II, p e1ging my word that
will tell you nothing but the truth, and then
leave il to yourselves TO say whether or not
am justified in at least doubling, if there be
not more things III heaven and earth than are
known TO our philosophy.
old gentleman's story, and, after sitting silent
for some moments, as IL to collect his thoughts,
he commenced as follows:
