LIVELY TUSSLE
Between Two knights of the Green
Cloth.

There was a lively little fight on the
corner Of Monroe and Main late YES
terday evening, in which two knights
of the green cloth, stirred up by an old
grudge, tried to settls it with their
fists. They were standing in the
entrance t. Luehrmann's when the
quarrel began, and foFght for some
time before the police, who were over
on the Peabody corner, were able to
stop them. They we're both in earnest,
and rolled, bit and scratched like a
pair of tigers for several MINUTES ,
their hold upon each other being bro
ken with extreme difficulty. They
put up f~oIieits at the S aiol-House,
where they gave their names as Ieb
Nolan and A. Tresdweu.

Lolita

The ssle Of seats for Lolita opens to-
day, the prices for the matinee being
the same as at night. A recent issue
Of the Toronto Mail says: In Nile.
NitOuche Lo ia has found a role that
suits Admiralty her talents, and her
impersonation was characterized by
wonderful vivacity and chic. The de-
lighted audience we're kept ccDvulsed
with laughter whenever she held the
stage. Her by.play, facial ex-
preston, and gestures were intensely
iudicIous, although through all the
absurdity was manifest the art OF the
actress. Lolita has undoubtedly
achieved a genuine triumph in her
new role. Her "Nitouche" almost de-
fies analysis, and theater.goers who
neglect to see her in this character
will miss a treat. The company was
unusually good, every part being e.
fectively taken.

WESTERN FARMERS.
Some Pertinent Facts Worthy of Calm
and Early Consideration.

Some Pertinent Facts Worthy of Calm
and Early Consideration.
There is no denying the fact that, I'M
der the influence of depressed prices, a
large proportion of the farmers of the
country have been exceedingly FESTIVE.
But this is what all men are who are
making no money: Wheat, at the
prices that prevail in the inter.o Or, that
is, in the States west of the Mississippi
river, is grown ut loss; certainly Il
loss, if due account S taken of the wear
and tear of machinery, and of the mus
Gle and frame of man and beast. He
is wise farmer who is able to settle
the question as to what he can grow
upon the farm that will, without any
question, bring him profit as the
times now are. Certainly it is not
wheat, nor corn, nor oats, for ship
ment. Then. will it pay to feed corn
and oats and sell well-bred cattle and
hogs at $40 or so per hundred, after
paying well toward 81 per hundred
pounds, as is done in many Localities,
for freight to get them to market9
Discomfort, however strong the will
may fight against it, can not be kept
possible to settle the question: lis
there any thing that we can do on the
farm that will yield profit?'' Expert
ments do not ALWAYS seem to satisfy
Especially do they not when they seem
to prove different from what is desired
When they often show TO an Eastern
farmer, that in feeding a lot of cattle,
his expenses for feed, sh piping and care
exactly balance with the total returns
when sold, how does he reason in such
case, but to say, ''the manure left on
the land is my profit" and tbs covers
all the processes of growth and feeding.
A forced conclusion of this kind is poor
comfort indeed to Western man. He
is not ready to believe that
his land needs any manure He
will very likely think differently
some day. put that prospect
keeps out no portion of a growing dis
content now. Too many Western farm
ers are fretted by being the owners of
too much land. Very few so situated
ever acknowledge this, vet the burden
of taxes they are required to meet pre-
vents their doing the one thing most
needful, or at any rate, is one of the
hindrances. The one thing needful is
simply doing what all successful mer-
camille men do, once a year, take an ac-
count of stock, marking down a shade
on out-of-date things. filling up with
modern improvements, those things
only that are wanted at top-paying
prices. The merchant pays no more for
rent and help with these than he does
when he has the cuttings. and the same
rule applies to the farmer.-Ndtionak

NAPoLEON'S HOME.
The House In which the CASTOR Empress
Josephine Expired.
Edward King, in Boston Journal

Edward King, in Boston Journal
Invent the other day to Malmaison, the
old home of Napoleon and Josephine, and
the quiet old-fashioned mansion in which
Josephine died. / had not been there since
1867, at which time the Imperial Govern
ment had organized complete Napoleonic
museum in the old place The library,
where Napoleon had worked out his CAM
paigns, the boudoirs, the salons, were all
fitted with the furniture which had done
duty in the early days of the first empire,
aud one would almost imagine, while
strolling from room to room, that the Lit
tie Corporal would suddenly appear and in
curt tones inquire to what the intrusion
was due. The small bedroom in which
Napoleon slept on an ordinary camp bed
stead was filed with his old clothes and
cooked hats; and his favorite books were
thrown down as if they had just quilted the
impatient imperial hand which they some
times did in a great hurry, as Napoleon
would pitch book even out of a travelling
carriage if he happened to find any thing
which was not in harmony with his own
notions. During his Austrian and Rus
sian campaigns he had light carriage fit
ted up with a compact library, and it is
said that one of the duties of the aide-de-
camp who followed this camp was the res
cuing from the mud of the war-worn roads
of the time the books which Napoleon SHE'D
into the air when he disliked them.
Malmaison was dreadfully cut up during
the Franco-German war, and to-day there
is but little left of the old-fashioned coun-
try house. Some of the rooms are so I'M
safe that visitors are requested not to ven
ture on their shaky floors or under their
ancient ceilings. The library is especially
dilapidated. Not a book remains in it, and
the concierge who shows visitors over the
house dwells with a kind of ferocous en-
phasis upon the mischief which the Prus-
sian headquarters officers did during their
long sojourn there. The beautiful park
into which Napoleon used to pass from a
little draw bridge rugged over a moat di-
rectly from his private bedroom is being
parceled out and sold to the rich landlords
of the neighborhood. The magnificent al
ley of sycamore which leads to the chateau
is now unkempt and somewhat desolate,
and there is none of the old time life or
gaiety at Malmaison save when a joyous
party of htterateurs or painters penetrate
the old domain on their capricious way to
Bougival for rowing or driving parties.
1 went into the little room in which Jo-
sephine brcathcd her last. 1t was as des-
olate and fororn as that of some old col
onial mansion ON the Eastern coast of
America Life and thought had gone
away. lit seemed impossible to believe
that in the suite of rooms adjoining were
once assembled the most brilliant collec-
ton of French poets that has been known
in the last two centuries.

SIZE OF THE EARTH.
A French Doctors Crude Method of Meas
uring the Earths Surface.

"A French Doctors Crude Method of Meas
uring the Earth's Surface.
The earlier attempts at calculating
the size of the globe were based on
astronomical observations. 1t would
be difficult to-day to say within what
degree of accuracy the figures then OBJ
tanned could have been relied upon, as
the units of measurement used by those
pioneers have been lost and could not
be compared with the units now in
use.
One of the earlier attempts at OBJ
tanning the actual length of the earth s
meridian by direct measurement of a
portion of the same was made in the
sixteenth century by a French doctor.
The means employed, although very
ingenious, would be considered per-
fectly clumsy and inadequate by the
modern scientist. There was IN this
early measurement no attempt at math-
ematicaI prec sion as understood in the
present century, and, considering the
Simplicity of the method employed by
the doctor, it is only to be wondered
that no greater error was obtained in
it's final result. The measurement con-
ssted simply in driving from Paris to
Amiens, and counting the revolutions of
the wheels of the carriage, and from the
number of revolutions of the wheels OBJ
tain the distance between the two cities,
which could serve as basis for cal
culating the length of the meridian. OF
course, this calculation could not hy any
means be considered accurate, but, TAX
inc into account the means employed,
the result obtained has been subsequent
" found to be wonderfully precise.
The most curious thing about it is, that
what would now be considered grave
errors and inexactitudes, were so dis
tributed that they almost compensated
each other, and the dimensions then OBJ
tanned Show only slight differences with
the dimension given by the most recent
measures. Thus chance (and no better
name could be found) permitted
of the same results, with only small
final error being obtained with that
crude method, that are now obtained
with the most precise instruments and
with the most complicated calculations
