the evening star. He still holds the highest
rank among his brethren, and win be fair
to see during August in the early evening
1t may be called his last appearance on
the evening stage, for when September
makes it's advent he will be so near the sun
that it will take bright eye to pick him
up in the twilight. The little drama play.
ed by Jupiter, Mars and Uranus for
several months past meets with
several changes and will soon close. The
three planets will have no more meetings
and partings on the celestial road for a
long time; the space between them widen
ing, and the actors taking part innew com.
binations as they pursue their paths
around the sun, or as we view them from
our moving observatory, the earth. Jupi
ter is in aphelion on the 23d at o'clock
in the afternoon. He is then as, 600, 900
miles further from the sun than he
was when in perihelion in 1880. Those
who have faith in the theory that the
planets have an agency in the production
OF the sun spot cycle believe that the pres
ent lessening OF sun spots is partly due to
the greater distance of this gigantic planet
from the sun. The most reliable astrono
mers reject this view OF the case, but many
years must pass before any theory con-
corning the sun may be considered as es-
tablished.
Uranus is evening star. The noteworthy
event in his course is his conjunction with
Jupiter, which has been described. After
that takes place, he will be left TO move
on alone in his slow course. As the three
planets who have been close companions
for several months are all moving east.
ward, he will be west of his brethren will
be nearest the sun and the first to
reach conjunction. Uranus is still
visible to sharp-sighted observers
about 2 degrees southeast OF Jupi-
ter on the 1st, and may be easily found with
the aid of marine glass
Mars is evening star. He is travelling
eastward at rapid pace, and increasing
his distance from Jupiter. On the first OF
the month no is 13 degrees east OF Jupiter,
at the close OF the month the distance be-
tween them has increased TO % degrees.
Mercury is evening star until the 10Th.
On that date he reaches inferior conjunc-
tion at clock in the afternoon. He is
then between the earth and the sun, the
Mercury passing to the suns western side
and making his advent as morning star.
Venus is moraing star. She makes very
close conjunction with Saturn on the 8th at
10 o clock in the morning. when she is only
one minute south Of her brother planet.
One minute OF space is very small piece
Of blue sky, and il we could see the planets
at their nearest point OF approach their
rays would be so blended that they would
seem to touch each other. Ii their paths
touched little more closely we could
witness rare phenomenon.

The New oleomargarine Law.

Senator Miller OF New York, the father OF
the oleomargarlne bill, lately passed by
congress, says:
The notion that the oleomargarine bill
was emasculated in the senate or material
ly weakened in any way is without fOunda-
tion. While the farmers had fixed upon q
per cent. tax, and while he worked to Sc
cure it, still the rate of tax was not the inn
portant feature of the bill. The evil sought
to be cured was the putting ON the market,
under the guise and In the name oi
butter, variety of fraudulent imitatio ms.
Machinery devised to prevent this is re-
tanned in all it's vigor in the bill as it be-
came q law. OleOmargarine and all imi-
tations of butter must henceforth be put
up in stamped and branded packages and
stand on their own merits. The penalties
for violation are severe, and the machin-
erv for the detection of evasion and for the
enforcement OF the law is as near perfection
as the experience ofthe internal revenue de-
partment couldinvent. One incidental, but
very important, result of the passage OF
5he act will be the aid it will furnish the
state authorities to carry out their own
laws on the subject Heretofore, howe yer
stringent the state law may have been, it
has been extremely difficult, often impossi-
BILE, to execute it by reason ofthe fact that
limitations of butter made in neighboring
states could come across the border un-
challenged, and there was no way except
by chemical analysis, both expensive and
slow, to detect fraud.

Condensed General News.
Desires of Gen. Grant.

An article has recently appeared in sever
al papers to the effect that Gen. Grant de-
sired to be buried On Mount McGregor and
that he lett letter expressing this wish in
plain terms. This statement was shown
to his son, Col. Grant. He said, with en-
phasis:
There is no foundation fol odch story. Ny
father never wrote such \ letter, never made
such a request orally. My father
never gave any definite eXpressi on about
his place OF burial until after he lost his
voice. Then, shortly before his death, he
wrote me a note on the matter. In this
he mentioned New York Galena and st.
Louis, as places Tor his interment. | read
the note over, and then told him that |
wanted to have him buried at Washington.
When he heard this he took the pa.
per and tore it up. Perhaps" he
added My funeral may take a public
form; if it does, you must see wherever
am buried your mother will have place
beside me at her death" This was the
substance OF all he said or wrote about his
place of burial. We are well satisfied now
with the choice that was made. II we
should have another war and Washington
be sacked as was done once before by an
invading army, don't think it would ever
be rebuilt as the capital"

The southwest and northwest have
had the affection of drouth this year.
The northwest has suffered to some
extent, but not much in comparison
with the southwest. In Texas, New
Mexico and other states and territor-
les cattle have died by thousands, as
the water has dried up, and the grass
has in numerous places entirely disap-
peared. This has caused ranchmen
to hurry their stock to market, and
the worst specimens of Texas cattle
ever seen in the stock yarc.4are now
coming forward.
