The Revival Collections and Expenses

A report of the collections at the Jones Small
revival meetings shows that the aggregate
amount received was $1,000, of which 81, ops was
paid to the revivalists, in addition to the board
of themselves and associates at the Bates House.
The remainder was required for hall rent,

like to have you understand, Stanton,
that I am the governor Of the state o.
Illinois, and as such am entitled to be
respected. I'd like to know what would
become OF you or this war but for the
support Of the loyal governors OF the
free states. I did not como here to beg
for anything, but to inform you, a. the
head Of the var Office OF the government.

I looked blue for minute, but there
was Lo further trouble with Stanton. He
apologized to the governor, and explain
ed that there had been an unusual
amout of friction in his Office that morn
ing, and that the governor must overlook
his abruptness and apparent want OF
courtesy. Before they parted, Yates and
the secretary were on very friendly terms,
understanding each other all the bettcr on
account of the little disturbance at the
lightning of their interview.

to rob you" The man then told his wife
that he was going to get the dog to fol
low him to remote part OF the city and
then lose him. The animal followed,
and when the gentleman had walked
about two miles he coDtrived to cut loose
from the liver -colored visitor, and took a
street car for. home. When he opened
the front gate the visiting dog came
down of from the stoop and wagged his
tail and looked happy and contented.
He visited there continuously for several
days, and then gathered himself up and
went away to make some other family
miserable.
It is impossible to understand how the
visiting dog lives. His meals must be
exceedingly irregular. It he gets q
mouthful once in two weeks he is in luck.
To be sure he can eat snow, but at the
best this is only a cold bite, and not by
any means square meal. By referring
to any reliable table showing the nourish-
ing properties of different kinds Of food,
it viii be seen that snow is at the bottom
of the list. How does the visiting dog
subsist? The problem is an intricate
and difficult one, and is worthy Of the
attention of all students of natural his
tory.

ANTHONY, Kas., April 2O:-This morning
the city of Anthony was the sceue of amost
tragic affair. About two months ago 12ht
occurred in the village Of Danville, near
this place between three brothers named
Weaver and Adei Shearer was fatally
wounded, and the Weaver boys were ar
rested and hurried away to avoid mob
violence. Last week they were returned for
trial, but the cases we're continued for term
with bail feed at 81 600 each. At o'clock
this morning mob of forty or more armed
men surrounded the residence Of the
sheriff where the prisoners were under
guard. The guard hearing them, rushed
the prisoners out the back door into the
basement of a new school building. The
sheriff was taken prisoner by the mob and
guarded. The deputies finding it useless to
resist 81 rendered. The Weaver brothers
defended themselves in their struggle for
life with a revolver they had taken from .
deputy, but were finally overpowered by tho
mob and disarmed. Ropes were placed
about their necks and preparations made -
hang them to the rafters, but the trample Of
approaching feet frightened the mob ard
they fired fifteen or twenty shots into each
man, literally shooting them to pieces.
Mounting horses they rode rapidly away.
No one knows who they were. The mother
of the boys and the wife of one of them
witnessed the entire tragedy.

Detroit Free Press.
The other day farmef-looking man
entered Griswold street bank with q
check which he handed to the paving
teller, and which was at once returned to
him with the remark:
mo money here"
what! Are you out of money ~
asked the caller.
'tOh, no. I mean that the man whose
name is signed there has no money on
deposit here"
els that so? Why, he's one of the
incest men ever met"
''That may be, but his check isn't
worth anything here"
"Im't en-? Why, he boarded with me
a whole month, and we think everything
of him. Maybe he's got money here and
it's misIaid somewhere"
s'The check is worthless, sir. He never
had dollar on deposit here"
'Never did, Ell? I don't see how it
comes about. When asked him for his
board money he wrote this check out as
quick as wink. You couldn't pay it and
trust him for the money, eh?"
The teller looked at him in sorrowful
way for moment, and the man con-
tinued:
"You'd better do that way. I hate to
hurt his feelings, You known
"Say, that check is worthless, and
dont't want you to bother mer' >xclaim-
ed the teller.
''You don't Ell? Well I won't; but I
think it's mean sort of trick on your
part. When man goes and writes a
check right off like he did, it ought to be
paid. When I go home and he asks me
if got the money do you 'spose I'm
going to tell him what you've saidf Not
much! Don't hurt nobody's feelings, if
can help it."

The Visiting Dog.
Rochester Herald.

hOcheSCer Herald.
The most interesting and least ap-
preciated of dogs is the dog that visits.
He is usually iver-colored animal, two
hands high and about twenty -six inches
long, with pink spot on his nose. His
ears droop and his tail almost drags on
the ground, and his whole makeup is
admirably suited to the requirements Of
his occupation. He appears to have been
gotten up expressly for purposes of visit
ing. He is not like other dogs. He is
a sort of special dog, as it were, being
of an odd pattern throughout, and if any
part of him should break it would be
impossible to replace it. This dog has no
calling list. He never makes calls. He
has neither the time nor inclination to
practice cold formalities. As an iuustra-
ton of manner in which he goes visit
ing we may refer to the experience which
Caledonia avenue man had with him last
week. The dog went and sat down on
the mans front stoop about the middle
Of the afternoon. He did not know any
body in that family, but the wanted to
get acquainted The lady of the house
opened the door and told him to go
away, but he only wagged his tail, as
much as to say, I'VE will geton nicely
together when we cone to an under
standing" The man of the house came
home at 6 o'clock and kicked the dog
into the middle of the street. After sup
per he went out and tried to repeat the OPP
Grafton but only succeeded, in kicking thin
air until his leg was lame. The visiting
canine was just out OF range every time.
The gentleman then went into the house
and kicked a rocking chair and dis
charged theservant ON suspicion of hav-
ing fed the dog, after which, with the
assistance OF two other members Of the
household, he caught the visitor, ON the
stoop and threw him over the fence. The
dog then ran around the house and sat
ON the hack doorsteps and wagged his
tail in the pleasant and good -natured
manner. He had come visiting. The
man than offered to give the dog 10 .

and is produced from toluene, one OF the
constituents of coal tar, first by sulphon-
alton, whereby the toluene is converted
into nonsulphonic acids. Then by means
of phosphorus penta-chloride the cores
ponding sulphonic chlorides are pro-
duced, and the so-oalled orts body thus
formed after being treated with ammo

with the science we presume the above
data are quite sufficient to commit to

Aside from being sweet, however, sac
charine, or sacky (and we announce our
selves as guilty of the blame for this cor
ruption) is said to be quite harmless to
the human system. Indeed, dogs have
been given as much as five grammes

Now, in stating the facts concerning
this strange substance. we do not desire
to mamtsin that $50 times as sweet as the
best cane sugar is the maximum degree
of sweetness that can be attained by any
thing upon the face of this sphere. We
are all well aware that such charge of
subordination against all sweet things
would subject one to grave counter
chares on the part of the true apprecia-
tors of such reservoirs of sweetness, yet
we do maintain that, provided the reports
concerning DR.. Fahlberg's discovery are
true, the specific sweetness demanded in

Narrowing Wheat.
The Journal of Agriculture.

A good many farmers have not the
nerve to harrow their wheat in the spring
any more then they have to harrow broad.
cast over the corn-field after the corn is
up. This spring is a good time for those
who are timid on this point to gain some
wisdom by personal experience. If you
have never tried narrowing your wheat,
try some of it this spring and institute a
comparison by comparing results of one
kind of treatment with the other.
With hardly an exception in the whole
line of agricultural products, universal ez-
perience has proven that cultivation is
essential to the best possible results
General analogy would be sufficient Of
itself to suggest that beneficial results OF
tillage applied to wheat. but the matter
has not been left to analogical inference
Many experiments have been made by
thoroughly cultivating the crop, when SO
planted, as to make it possible and with
wonderful results as to increase of prod
uct; but in addition to that the practice
of giving wheat thorough narrowing
in the spring has come to be quite gen.
eral in many localities. The best harrow
for the purpose will probably be a
smoothing one, but any harrow not
having too large teeth will answer.
OF course few plants will be jerked
out by the roots, but the smallness of the
number of such will be remarkable. The
loss by this will not begin to Offset the
gain made by loosening the soil, so as to
give the roots chance to penetrate the
greatest possible distance. Then, too,
the benefit from preserving moisture in
the soil, by this loosening of the surface,
may be great in case of drouth about
the time the grain begins to fill. The
packing process by the continual fall of
rains for seven months makes the wheat
field pretty solid surface by the time
the plant begins fairly to grow in the
spring. In addition to the good it does
the wheat, this narrowing also very
greatly aids in getting good catch OF
clover or grass seed. Where the fields
are seeded down narrowing for this pur-
pose alone more than pays for the trou-
BILE. It is always best, if possible, to
time the narrowing just before rain,
and the ground should be just right
when it is done.

A Material $50 Sweeter than the Usua

Commodity-A New Discovery.
New York Mail and Express.
Coal tar has furnished another import
ant compound to the long list of pro-
ducts derived from it, but this time it is
not new dye, outstripping others in
brilliancy of color nor does it possess as
! a characteristic any new odor, as is pecu-
liar to great many of its predecessors
derived from this source. It is interest
ing, first, because it is probably destined
to become an article Of diet, or rather an
adjunct of food. 1t seems as though the
eyes of the world would never be per-
mitted to assume their normal condition
on account of the continued demands for
establishment and wonder that this peren-
NAL substance, coal tar, makes. The first
instance of the wonders of chemistry that
the pedagogue cites is almost invariably
the most brilliant colors, and thousand
other things. The patent-medicine man,
not to be outdone by the advance of
science, offers us tar for everything, from
tar soap to tar salvation-at any rate from
disease. But here is another thing which,
aside from being neither fish, fowl nor
flesh, is neither dye nor medi-
cine, nor does its virtue consist
in it's long name, and the number
of letters of the Greek alphabet con-
tanned in the chemical expression which
heralds it's existence is matter which
need not trouble those who may be most
generally interested in it. Its virtue is
its sweetness, and if the reports of DR..
Fahlberg's discovery are que, then su-
gar must retire to literary position and
figure only as factor in the ballads of
a bygone age. OF course, if the prohi-
bitionists do not gain their point, sugar
will still live as the father of alcohol,
and beer and whiskey and wine in gen
eral, such beverages as are not "temper-
ance drinks" but the immediate contact
with mankind on the part of sugar seems
to be under the sentence Of death. The
name of this material here is, properly
speaking, Benzoyl Sulphonic Imids
(Which we give with capital letters as
betting the dignity of SO important an
Individual constituent of our welfare).
Its discoverer, DR.. Fahlberg, has been
thoughtful enough to give due regard to
the exertion requisite to its call, and has
rechristened it Saccharine. Let us hope
that he will not object to further short
ening of the name to "Sacchy," which,
although it may be become corrupt into
"Sacky," will certainly add to the COM
fort of the tongues of the present gener-
alton.

whose roads wholly, or in part, make up the

Southern Pacific road. That company had
long held a monopoly of the California busi

their property, who had no business there.

OF all freight interchanged with us was MUGS
