Big Sale of Tennessee Land.

The Chicago Tribune, of q recent
date, says negotiations are about con-
Guided for the purchase, by Chicago
parties, of 100, 900 acres oftimber, coal,
iron and farm lands on the Cincinnati
Southern railroad, in the state of
Tennessee, and the trade isnow about
to- be consummated. The price Of
the property is So per acre, making
total of $4S0,0OO. The land in ques-
ton is in Cumberland, Bledsoe and
Putnam counties, Tennessee, 1876
miles east Of Nashville, fifty miles
west of Knoxville and 20 north of
Chattanooga. 1t is in the middle
part of East Tennessee, on the famous
Cumberland table-land.
The land has been out of the mark
ct heretofore on account of Indifferent
transportation facilities, and evident
ly one of the main reasons for the
present purchase is that the Tennessee
Midland and the Memphis & Charles
ton are soon to be extended through
the tract. This will bring it $50
miles nearer New York. The proper
ty was owned for forty years by Cice-
70 b. Duncan, who died while the ne
gotiations for the sale were in progress.
H. N. Dale, the principal heir and
the executor of the will, is now in the
city to close up the transaction. The
buyers are F. E. Hinckley, who will
be remembered as figuring in another
large southern deal not long ago, A.
j. Cooper, William Armstrong, Capt
Coffee of Memphis, Gen. Whitthorne
of Columbia, Tenn, and others
Noble B. Judah has examined the ii.
ties and is supposed to be interested
in the deal. 1t is proposed to organ
ize a company, plat the land and
market it in tracts of moderate size
1t will be offered in the European
market, and Mr.. Cooper will g
abroad for the purpose.

AUSTRIA'S DIPLOMACY.
How 1t Has Frequently Managed to Tri-
umph Over War.

How 1t Has Frequently Managed to Tri-
umph Over War.
There is no Story in the history of
the world more remarkable than that
of Austria. 1t is the history of the tri-
umph of diplomacy over war and yet
of diplomacy dependent always for
its power on certain kind of military
strength. To us it seems that though
undoubtedly the heterogeneous char
acter of the monarchy, which has al
ways weakened its armies, is
more apparent on the sur
face than ever yet that, in a contest
with Russia which should take place q
yeT or two hence, Austria would be
practically stronger than she has been
at any time in her history. The Aus
trian armies have probably sustained
more defeats than any other troops in
Europe, yet over and again she has
become the decisive power, whose in
fuence, thrown into the scale, has de-
termined the issue of victorious war.
1t was her union with the allies that
proved fatal to Napoleon in 1918. Her
unions with us during the campaigns
of Marlborough is connected with
some of the most glorious periods OF
our own military history, The power
of recuperation which she has again
and again shown after defeat has been
marvellous. Its no doubt due to the fac
that her population, almost entirely
agricultural, has always furnished {
vast supply of hardy, healthy soldiers;
while the masses of her rural folI
have, despite the socialism of thu
towns, been less disposed toward rev.
dictionary changes than any others in
Europe. Patriotism, except in Hun
gary, is no doubt difficult for the in.
habitants of the agglomerated empire
1t is hard TO know toward what ma
ton their patriotism should be felt
Nevertheless, the loyal of many race
the Tyrolese for instance-and gen
orally an attachment to the roya
house, if it docs not supply all tn
motive power which armies need, save
Austria from many of the risks whicl
some of her neighbors run. BLACK

Resuscitating the. Frozen.

Some recent experiments on the re-
suscitation of the frozen upset the pop
ular theory and practice of treatment.
Even the medical profession, as a rule.
teaches that frozen persons should be
restored very gradually, and that the
temperature of the room and applica-
tions should be quite low at first.
Prof Laptschinski froze sixty dogs
into condition of completely sus-
pended animation; twenty of these
were treated by the usual method OF
gradual resuscitation in cold room,
and of these fourteen persisted; twenty
were treated in a warm apartment
and eight of these died; while of the
remaining twenty, which were put at
once in hot bath. all recovered. -

MApIsoN.s OPINION.
An Incident Which Is of Interest to All
Historical Students.

Historical Students.
DR.. Alfred Elwyn, q venerable
Philadelphian, whose high position
had brought him into contact with
many men famous in our early his
tory, used to relate circumstance
which is of singular historic interest
in the light of events which followed
it. After Dr. Elwyn had left col
lege he was sent by his father to pay
his respects to his old friends, John
Randolph and Mr.. Madison. in Vir-
ginia, and to form their acquaintance.
The young man found his way on
horseback over the corduroy roads in
Virginia, through driving storm, to
the plantation of Mr.. Madison, whom
he described as u man of comm on
place appearance except for his great
earnestness and sincerity of manner.
Mrs. Dolly Madison was as en-
ergetic and charming hostess in her
own plain dwelling as in the White
House. Mr.. Madison had been ill,
and received his young guest in
bed. Once or twice during
the evening tall, handsome,
mulatto womdn entered to room to
perform some mental service. Her
eyes were full of misery, and there
was about her the look of one playing
n silent part in some terrible tragedy.
The young mans eyes followed her
curiously, and his host observed it.
You are looking at that poor
womanP" he said
Eyes. Slavery is thing unknown
to me, and, naturally, interesting"
explained the visitor.
THAT woman's husband belongs to
n neighboring planter, who is going 10
Louisiana. ] am not able to buy him,
and hence they will be separated to-
day for life.
Mr.. Madison spoke with much feel
ing. He was silent for few minutes,
and then, raising himself in the bed,
said vehemently: Il am slave
holder. l do not know that slavery is
wrong, but it is an evil TO both white
and black; and believe, young man,
that you will live to see the day when
that question will tear this republic
into fragments"
The incident, repeated by DR..
Elwyn frequently before the civil war,
is of interest to all historical students.

Liberal Changes in The Land Laws.

A measure of great importance to settlers on lands in the Western States has passed the House of Representa- tives. The Senate bill provided for an allowance of homestead entry of 160 acres of public land to any person who has heretofore filed pre-emption de- claratory statement or made a home stead entry, but has not perfected title under said former filing or en- try. To this Turner of Kansas offered an amendment providing that any set tier who is unable byreason of drought, destruction of crops, sickness or other unavoidable casualty to secure sup port, may be allowed leave of absence from his claim not exceeding one year at any one time, the same not to be deducted from the time of actual resi- dence required by law.
 Hermann of Oregon offered an amendment providing that all lands heretofore designated as double min imum under the Homestead and Pre- emption law shall be reduced to the uniform price of $1 9 per acre.
 Peel of Arkansas offered an amend ment providing that any settler who has entered less than one-quarter section of land may enter other and additional land lying contiguous to the original entry, which, with the land first entered, shall not exceed 160 acres in the aggregate.
 These amendments were adopted separately, and as amended the bill passed.

Warning to Would Be Blondes.

Recent analyses are said to have shown that the various nostrums used for inn parting a golden shade to the hair all depend for their action upon the decol- orizing and corrosive influence of nascent oxygen or nascent chlorine, the bases em- ployed being peroxide of hydrogen, aqua regia, and bronzers acid The first of the bases is the least harmful, but this pro- duces scalp sores and skin affections, and in time turns the hair an unnatural gray. The two acids powerfully attack both hair and skin, bleaching and burning the for mer to a gold color. staining the latter like iodine, and giving rise to unpleasant diseases of both. The preparations all lead to premature badness. Traveller.

 cated the throne. He has relinquished his title of king, and Is known only as the Duke of Aosta This title he gets from town of Piedmont, in the province of Turin, on the Dora Baltea, at the foot of the Great St. Bernard. The duke has been married before, his beautiful wife Marie dying in 1876.
 Princess Clotilde of Savoy. daughter of Victor Emanuel, married Prince Jerome Bonaparte, who is 0 son of the brother of the great Napoleon. Princess Letitia Bonaparte is their daughter. and it is she who is to be married to Amadeus. The princess is not quite % years of age. She inherits Napoleonic cast of countenance. Her grandfather, the brother of Napoleon, had the kingdom of Westphalia created for him when he married the princess royal of Wurtemberg.
 This marriage will do much, 1t Is thought, to help the Napoleons. Their humble origin is never forgotten by the royalty of Europe, and every time they ally themselves to throne they step up higher in the scale. The marriage of the Princess Letitia Bonaparte and her uncle is looked upon as important. Her aunt Is queen consort of Portugal, and her brother is Prince Victor, pretender to tie French empire.
 King Humbert, her future brother-in- law. has one child by his marriage with his cousin, the Princess Marguerite of Savoy, daughter of the Duke Ferdinand of Genoa, brother of King Victor Eman- uel. Tho Duke Amadeus has also three sons by his former wife. So there Is not remote possibility of any child of the Princess Letitiaevcr inheriting the throne of Italy.

THE BOT MAaGor.

Farmers have often noticed on the breasts and forelegs of horses minute yell low specks. These are the eggs of the horse bot fly. These eggs are licked off where laid from irritation and, passing through the stomach, hatch, and the larva, then pass their lives until ready again to transform, when they are ex- truded with the feces. The attachment to the stomach, is by means of the hooks, where it sucks liquid nourishment from the food of the horse. They do not eat through the stomach, as often supposed, having no means for so doing; neither do they cause serious disability, unless in such quantity as to take the nourishment so indispensable to the we'll being of the horse, or in case they accumulate in such quantities in the stomach and bowels as to considerably interfere with the process of digestion.
 The maggot, being mature, lets go it's head to the coat of the stomach, passes out of the intestinal canal, falls to the earth with the excrement, makes it's way to the earth, whence it, in about six weeks, transforms and issues as the per feet fly, lays its eggs upon the ends of the hairs of the horse and dies.
 Once the insect is lodged in the stom- ach, little can be done. When they exist in large quantities, strong purgatives may possibly dislodge them. They never eat through the coats of the stomach. | Tho hole sometimes found in the stomach of the horse infested with bots is caused by the action of the gastric juice of the animal acting upon inhamed and suppu. rating surfaces. The preventive is to carefully clip off all eggs found. Watch for hon,

A Desnerado Captured.

Deputy Sheriff Speedy, of Nogales, has arrested on telegraphic order from Ramon Corral, Governor of So- nora, a desperado named Jesus Mo reno who is wanted at number of places for different crimes, among others the brutal murder five years ago of the president of the city of Cabocca, Soon after this murder he escaped to Arizona where he has been for years committing all sorts of crimes on the border. The Governor of Sonora is endeavoring to have the prisoner ex- tradited. It has been only a few days since the Mexican government refused to turn over Verdugo who about a month ago brutally murdered Lewis Cohn, merchant in this city and against whom there was very strong evidence.
