he had n distinct recollection OF the
prize Wing banner that came from
Baltimore in ie44. He did not know
how tho banner came into the hands OF
the la,e william II. Naff, but he knew
that II WIS sold after his death at nd
miDiftrator's sale to Joseph Grub,
aud IL was now In tho possession Of the
Union League Club OF philadelphia.
The banner he said waA very larse,
red on one side and blue ON the other,
ann hinged with aold bullion costing

and banner. He sayI: The ball vas

them as can't read inquire at the corner

Fry-Sherman controversy is claimed to
be an outgrowth OF that between Blaine
and Conkling Any connection between
the two misunderstanding is purely
imaginary, and is probably given as an
excuse for rehash of the stale turkey
gobbler story. The hatred of Conkling
for Blaine had its origin in an entirely
different way from that hitherto told.
A friend of Mr.. Blaine and an admireY
of Mr.. Conkling gives me correct ver-
sion of the beginning of their quarrel.
The young congressman had been on
cordial terms until, meeting at a dinner
party one evening, discussion arose as
to the author of certain classical quota
tion. Conkling was SO empnatic that
Blaine did not press the question fur
ther at table, fearing dispute. After
dinner, however, he established before
the whole company the correctness Of
his knowledge by referring to the vol.
ume containing the quotation. Conk.
ling who pridcd himself on superior lear
ming, was mortified and angered. He
seized the first opportunity in congress
to vent his sleen on Mr.. Blaine. This
provoked the retort which made the
final break and which has Hitherto
been supposed to have given rise to their

To Tribune reporter, Mr.. A. s. Cham
berlain, who for 40 years has been the
proprietor of the 'tOld Bulls head
stables" New York City, said: 'T keep
exchange and sale stables for horses,
thousands of which annually come to
my stables from all parts of the country.
I don't deal on my own account to any
extent. The French horses have good
feet. and stand the pavements better
than the Clydesdales, and bring better
price on the market. The Clydesdales
are short-ribbed, slim wasted, and lack
action. Comparatively few of them are
now brought to this market. The de-
mand is largely for French horses. I
would advise the farmers and breeders
who are breeding horses TO sell on the,
New York market, to breed from French
horses in preference to all others.-Chi-
cago Tribune. Percheron stations of

recent thoughtful writer on this subject
says, her land law is made altogether
for landlords and by landlords, without
q single one of its thirty odd clauses that
can be constructed as other than device
to secure that the tenant shall bleed to

over, things are going the same way in
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Kansas and
Missouri" Meanwhile, the public do
main available for tillage is declared to
be practically exhausted" save the
Indian reservations sever at the mercy
of land thieves" It's time for officials
who have influence to rescue such part
of our squandered estate as may be
properly restored, and to put stop to
further rascality and lavish wastefulness.

Why He Left the Hills.

The following, taken from the Black
Hills Times. relates to Jack Baronette, a
well known guide and old-timer of the
Yellowstone country, now an assistant
superintendent of the National Park:
Jack was one of the first to reach the
Hills, and one of the first of the old
Montanians to leave them His depart
uFe was not of his seeking, but matter
of discretion. Our government was
purely provisional at the best, and in
many localities was of still less form. A
lawyer named Trimblin from Nebraska
had smothered the best portion of Battle
Creek, when in February, 1877, great
stampede to that locality occurred Find
ing the ground all staked out but unrep-
resented, the, miners smelled very large
mouse, instituted an investigation, dis
covered the condition of affairs, and de-
prived Trimblin of greater portion of
his ground. Jack Baronette, conspicu-
GUS among the miners, incurred Trimb-
Inns great displeasure, and the latter,
under the influence of liquor, met Baro-
nette at Hayward, and in very coward
ly manner attempted to kill him, firing
two or three shots in rapid succession
Too much alcohol medicine made his
aim erring, and Jack, in self-defense, un-
seated his enemy. It was fatal shot.
Jack was arrested, tried and acquitted, as
he properly should have been, but the
proceedings being informal because not
legally instituted; created apprehensions
in Jacks mind, Of re-arrest, trouble and
expense upon the establishment of
competent government; 50, quietly fold
ing his blankets, he as quietly disap-
peared between two days" returning to
his old Yellowstone haunts, where he
has since remained. He was the first to
discover mica in large quantities In the
hills. Jack has ever been one of Gen.
Sheridan's favorite scouts and mountaiR
guides. He always accompanied the
general when he visited Yellowstone
Park, His recent appointment as an
assistant superintendent was probably
through the influence and recommends
ation4of Gen. Phil Sheridan, who appre-
ciate the man at his worth.

Improving Tour Time.

Dsring the winter months a farmer
should improve a portion of his leisure
hours in deciding what particular crops
be had better plant the coming season,
and what Improvements, if any, are to
be made on his farm or on his buildings.
It is much better to dc this now than to
wait and have to do it after the rush of
spring work commences, because he has
now leisure to carefully examine each
plan of operation, and can better decide
which is best If he can decide now
what crops to plant it win give time to
buy seed and test its terminating quali-
ties and if he can decide what improve
ments are to be made on bis farm he
will have time to purchase at his leisure
whatever materials may be required to
accomplish the work.
