GENERAL ITEMS.

The mother of Gen. Phil. Sheridan, who is
SO years old, resides at Somerset, Ohio. The
General visited her few days ago. accompanied
by his brother, Col. Mike Sheridan.
The Hostein COW Clothide, owned in SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, closed her six ear old record Mon
day. She has given during that time little more
than $4,000 pounds of milk, or about 70 pounds
day.
"A fund of over $4,000 has been raised at
Mortified Seminary, Mass, for an aid society
which proposes to make loans to young women
for the expenses of their education, the money to
to be repaid without interest.
The Mayor of Philadelphia has determined
to buy no more benefit tickets to picnics and en-
tertainments generally. He complains that his
cts sent to him from all sorts of clubs and organi-
cations.
divers in thirty feet of water at Holyoke dam,
near Hartford, have kept up communication with
the men at the pumps by means of telephones.
The wire runs down and through the helmet to a
small telephone, so that the diver can direct the
work of the hosting engines more directly than
by the old system of signals by jerking life line.
William Jones, of Philadelphia. has presented
to the South Atlantic and Ohio Railroad Company
a natural tunnel in Scott county, Virginia. The
tunnel is 933 feet long, through solid limestone.
1t is about lie feet high and of the same width,
and was worn through by the action of the Stock
creek. 1t is on a slight curve and the floor is so
level that little work will be required before the
track can be laid.
They tell this story in Boston of Gilbert Stu
art, the great painter. He was once met by a
lady on the streets of that city, who said to him
that she had just seen his likeness and had kissed
it, because it was so much like him. "And did it
kiss you in return p he asked. "Why, no." was
the somewhat startled answer. "Then it was not
like me-" was Mr. Stuarts answer, but the lady
didn't venture to try again.
"A st. Louis harness dealer has on exhibition
a horseshoe of English design, which is simply a
cushion pad of vulcanized rubber covering the
frog of the hoof and held in place by the horseshoe
in an ingenious manner. In cities where there is
any great quantity of asphalt pavement this in
vention will become invaluable, as it will prevent
slipping and reduces to the minimum the concus-
sion that soon "staves" horse up when driven
on such pavements.
High license has succeeded in Savannah.
The Council of that city increased the liquor Ii
cense from Sis to $500, great mistake, many
people thought, as it would so reduce the number
of saloons as to cause great deficiency in the
city's revenues, and, at the same time, have the
effect of increasing the number of illicit dealers.
The experience of year has proved the wisdom
of the Council and has benefited Savannah in
every way. The number of liquor licenses has
fallen off, it is true, some fifty odd, but only the
worst and viest saloons have disappeared. The
city's revenues from the sale of liquors have in
creased from S31,l12 to $4,000, or more than
donhIa

Heredity of Disease.

A. B. Allen, in American Agriculturist.
1t is the general belief, if either male or female
animal has met with an injury on any part of its
body or limbs during the pregnancy Of the female,
this injury will never be shown by the offspring.
But we have lately heard of several instances to
to the contrary of injuries being fully transmitted,
more particularly, however, from the female; so
that they ought to be guarded against in breed
ing, as we'll as against disease in the parents
The latter is so generally certain to be developed
in the offspring, all sensible persons agree that
neither male nor female should ever be permitted
to breed when diseased in the slightest degree
There are immense losses annually suffered in
rearing young animals born of such parents
Heaves, curb, SPAWN, side bone, and ring bone,
are the most ordinary ailments that are shown in
horses, while scrofula develops most surely and
disastrously in cattle. Parent animals of every
kind should be in perfect health and condition at
the time Of breeding, and the young should be Ju-
diciously fed and attended to until full grown,
and then they will be fit for the best of service
through an extra length of life. Our farmers
would add millions of dollars annually to their
incomes if they would persistently adopt the above
suggestion in breeding and rearing their domestic
animals

Against the Knights of Labor.
DuJ.:x,o.a o.,

Cardinal Taschereau, of Quebec, Canada, has
written a letter to the bishops of the Catholic
Church in his jurisdiction announcing the receipt
by him of letter from Cardinal Simeoni inform
ing him that on June 81 last the Sacred Congre-
CATION of the Propaganda, after determination
of the principles of the Knights of Labor main
tanned its former judgment that, considering the
principles, organization and rules of the Society
of the Knights of Labor, as they set forth,
this society must be classed among those which
have been condemned according to the instruc-
tons of this supreme congregation on May 10,
1884, that the bishops be enjoined to proceed as
well against this society as against Others of the
same kind, and to employ the remedies ordered or
advised in said instructions" Cardinal Tascher-
explains that the present decision is in reply
to printed appeal forwarded by him without
comment to the Holy See, accompanied by au-
thentic copy of the constitution of the order, and
a prayer to examine it all the more carefully be-
cause the society seemed to embrace all branches
of work and workers, as its name clearly indca-
ted. Cardinal Taschereau adds: 81 cannot see
that there can any longer be any doubt as to the
rule to be followed by the Catholics of the whole
world, over whom the jurisdiction of that sacred
congregation extends"

DR.. Shaw ON the Situation.

In a recent interview with representative of
the Baltimore Sun Congressman Shaw, of this
district, is represented as saying "The prospect
for my denomination, think, is encouraging
The Democratic practice of returning man for q
second term has almost universally prevailed in
the State, and has never been violated in this
Congressional district. I certainly have never
heard any reason assigned why it should not be
observed in my case. In fact, know of no one
who is opposing my denomination but Mr.. Talbot,
who has had three terms in Congress, and who, I
trust of fair play will yet prompt to with
draw from the contest. have labored diligently
to serve my people, and to care for such OF their
interests as were committed to my charge. 1t is
true 1 did not formulate any measure of national
Importance, and even if had possessed the ability
and experience necessary to do SO, did not have
the time, for the committee on claims, to which L
was assigned, imposed upon me duties that were
exacting, and which kept me constantly employ
ed. am encouraged to believe my constituents
appreciate my efforts in their behalf, and that
they will not treat me unjustly."
