Except that Crcesus in corsets. the
CHILEAN donna we read about. Mrs.
Meredith. of Cambridge City. Ind, Is
the cattle queen OF the world Mrs. NJ.
is the widow of Gen. McreiitL. Con.
Meredith when he was alive was one Of
the pioneer fine cattle breeders in this
country. He became rich Is the craze
for high priced imported shorthorns grew
until in the ZOOS and the earl, 'sOs lie
was worth probably $500, 900. He had
the Airdries. and paid out $1,000 us
readily for a bull that happened 10 be-
after his own heart a. more conservative
men paid out money for good lands with
houses on them. But the general went
broke when the craze subsidized. His son
failed after him, but the widow. with all
her style and grace. had a better head
for business than either the husband or
son. She took the herds that were left
and managed them and where both men
had failed She succeeded.
Gen. Meredith used to own $4,000
bulls and ran to 81, 1000 calves. His hand
some widow has got over that folly. She
breeds cattle for money, not for glory.
The general was quixotic from the stand
point of cattle men. The widow is prac-
teal. The modern idea in cattle raising
is to raise u herd and to breed il up until
it has certain distinctive characteristics
of fine beef. for instance. or Of great
beauty. Mrs. Meredith would be happy
if she could sell twenty calves a year for
$3.50 apiece. The general was never
satisfied unless he could have a sale once
in two years and could get $1,000 or
500 00 for his COWS and bulls. Cattle
men now are gratitied if they can take
their customers out into their fields and
show them a herd of cattle. each one of
which is SO much alike every other one
that there is no distinguishing them.
This is the latter day theory; the gen
erals was the old fashioned. Men and
women are getting rich now breeding
fine animals. All the old cattle lords
who held the generals views went broke

The edition for 1887 of the sterling
Medical Annual, known as Ilostetter's
Almanac, is now ready, and may be OBJ
tanned, free of cost, of druggists and gen
eral country dealers in all Parts of the
United States, Mexico, and indeed in
every civilized portion Of the Western
Hemisphere. This Almanac has been
issued regularly at the commencement OF
every year for over one-iith of Il century.
1t combines, with the sounGest practical
advice for the preservation and restora-
ton of health. a large amount of interest
ing and amusing light reading, and the
calendar, astronomical calculations, chro-
biological items, etc. are prepared with
great care. and will be found entirely ac-
curatc. The issue of lIostctter's almanac
for 1887 will probably be the largest cdi-
ton of a medical work ever published in
any country. The proprietors, Mcs'rs.
Hostetter q Co., Pittsburg, Pa, on receipt
of n two cent stamp, will forward n copy
by mail to any person who cannot procure
one in his neighborhoOd.

WATCHING THEIR MONEY 1lLLs.

IN--
Methods Taken by New York saloon
keepers to Keep Bartenders Honest.
The trouble saloon keepers are put to
in this city to keep what they get over
their bar is simply amazing. The
mechanical devices for preventing thefts
by %bartenders no longer serve the pur-
pose, though the number of checks of
this sort in use increases every day. In
the busiest places one now sees that an
extra hand is employed to handle the
cash. while the bartenders take the metal
price marks from the registering
machines. hand them to the customer.
and then turn the cash over to the cashier
and drop the price card into the lock
box, whose contents are counted up at
night and must correspond with the
cash.
But it is what one does not see that is
most suggestive of the merciless robbery
to which the proprictors either are, or
think they are, subjected. There is
one large place which has the dwelling
rooms of the proprietor over it. Tiny
holes are cut in the floor over the cash
drawer end, and, day and night, the eyes
of some member of the proprietor's fam
ly are glued to these o~rifices. In another
place the proprietor employs men. who
are unsupported by the bartenders, to
loiter in the barroom and surreptitiously
keep ccoun of every cent taken over
the bar while they are present. When n
second one comes in the first one either
goes away or hangs about to hinder the
bartender from suspecting collision be
tween the two.
There is u large and busy saloon about
which there is only one feature not
noticeable in any Other places of resort.
That is u box like ,rotuhcrance in the
wall parallel with The side street. Cases
of wine and barrels ass piled around this
so rs to make il a. little noticeable Us

Thunder is caused by reason of hot
and dry civilizations shut within the
cloud, which. seeking to get out, with
great violence do knock and reno the
cload." The hot and dry exhalations in
escaping is set on fire by the violence
and becomes lightning, when ii often
continues burning until it falls to the
ground. And oftentims a great stone
is blown out of the cloud with it; whose
cause is also natural" For, when the
cxhl.ation is drawn up from the earth,
it sometimes takes earthly matter like
unto the finest sand" with it, and this,
through the moisture which it getteth
in the air" "clottereth together" and
'by the excessive heat which it findeth
in the general matter of the exhalation,"
becomes hard like n brick. Sometimes
the exhalations not only carry up earthly
matter with them but also frogs. fishes
and grain, and this accounts for showers
of frogs, ctc.-Saturday Review.

The average japanese man will weigh
125 pounds. One of the wrestlers viii
weigh from 200 to $50 pounds, and is
head and shoulders above the othei
people, So marked is the difference
that you see them several blocks away
as they tower above the crowds in the
streets. The women of this class are
fine physical specimens also. This is
probably the only instance in the world
where only the best physical specimens
OF men and women intermarry, and the
result il si, il as to deserve attention.
These Wrrstlrrs form troupes of fifteen
or twenty each and travel from town to
town. where they always meet a rival
troupe and the two companies give ex-
hibition-. by these means there are no
%hippodromcs hut genuine exhibitions of
strength. skill and activity.
These exhibitions are generally held
in large buildings %improviscd from bam-
boo poles for the purpose. They will ac-
commodatc thousands Of people and
thousands are always there. The rival
troupes are seated on opposite sides of
the house and the managers arrange the
matches. When it comes to the meet
ing of the champions of the respective
troupes the interest is intense and large
amounts are staked on the result. The
favorites are stimulated by the offer of
large sums of money from their friends
in ease they win. These entertainments
last a whole afternoon. and in the large
towns extend through n week or two.
These athletic sports are popular and so
well p%atronized that wrestlers of any
considerable note accumulate small for

The Sons of Our Statesmen Have, In Al
most all Cases, Indicated no Inheritance
of Their Fathers intellectual Abilities.
illustrations.
Take, for instance, our presidents.
Washington, jefferson, Madison, Monroe,
jackson hay no male descendants. Presi-
dent Van Buren's son John was u man OF
extraordinary quick wit, keen intellect
md brilliancy as a lawyer. He was
known as Prime John, but he was not n
man of steady purpose or of such charac-
ter as makes ability tell for its best.
President Harrison's son was u man in
no special way conspicuous, though the
grandson, the present Senator Harrison,
is thought by many to be a mar OF excep-
tional ability. Yet there is no lesson Of
hcredity to be learned from Senator Har-
rison's career, inasmuch as William
Henry Harrison was very far from being
IA great man, and was elected to the presi-
dency for reasons with which his mental
character had very little to do. John
Tyler was an accidental president, and
no. n man Of commanding ability. One
Of his som Is a struggling physician in
Washington and another has held minor
positions under the government. Polk
and Taylor had, we believe, no sons.
Franklin Pierce lost his son by n rail
road accident soon after Mr.. Pierce's
election. The youth was regarded rs Civ
ing promise of great ability. Buchanan
was II bachelor. Lincoln's son Robert in
no way whatever, physically or mentally.
suggests his paternity. He seems to have
inherited physically the short, stocky
build Of the Todds from his mother, and
their rather phlegmatic mental constitu-
ton. 1t was thought by many that one
of Mr.. Lincoln's sons, Willie, who died
Young, gave promise of inheriting some
of his fathers remarkable traits of mind
Andrew Johnson's son was n man of only
average capacity, while Gen. Grants three
boys are certainly not distinguished above
their fellows. Fred leads n ~listless, UNI
ambitious life; Ulysses Is IA sort of amateur
farmer in Westchester county, while
Jesse is following II quiet business career.
Gen. Garfield has one boy, Irwin, who is
thought to have inherited some of his
fathers literary ability, but James and
Henry Garfield, though young men Of
fair uttainments, have not discovered
such mental strength rs their father had.
Gen. Arthur's son, Alan, is II student in
the Columbia law shool. Possibly lie
may develop into II strong man by and
by.
