Il. Scott of Pennsylvania is the

pant OF the white house is @ cold blood
ed, calculating schemer, whose equal
has never held public office ia this coun
try. Mr.. Scott made q speech to-day
upon the retaliation bill, which deserves
to go down in history beside that of
some congressman ! n years past upon
most shoulders rested the attempted
disintegration of the union. Represent
ing the thoughts of the administration,
he spent several hours in allowing pre-
cisely what the views, of the administra-
ton were in relation to this retaliation
measure. He stated positively that the
president had always been III favor of
retaliation, end that it was at his sug-
gestion that the extreme retaliation
measure OF the house in the forty-nlnth
congress- was formulated. This was the
measure that Cleveland wanted, but the

stated:
Is was the presidents purpose to out

Yankees employed on these Canadian

the fisheries. Let the men who were
employed upon the roads fail to get their

with vehemence upon the fishermen
who had made all this trouble and the
matter would become 8 mere local issue.
This is the presidents method of settling

The Secretary of the State Board of Agri-
culture Makes o Report.
TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. S.-The Hon.
Martin Mohler, secretary of the state
board OF agriculture submitted his re-
port for the month of August. The
total area planted to corn in the spring,
as shown by assessors returns, is
$4,000 acres; "a per cent of this, OF
o, 1857, $50 acres, is reported az worth
harvesting. The estimated average
yields per acre on this gives a total corr
product for the state of 144, 427, $40 bush
els, which is almost double the product
of last year, and 5,417, 900 bushels more
than the product of 1856, but is less by
40, 452, $40 bushels than the product of
1884, which was the greatest in the
history of Kansas. Many, however,
have had an excellent crop of wheat and
. fair crop of oats, and all will have an
abundance of feed for stock in corn fod-
der, millet, sorghum, and hay, SO that
the situation is an improvement on that
of last year.

st. The DAILY NEWS
Is a daily paper for busy people.

OF all mankind the people of Chicago and the busy north
west are the busiest. And yet perhaps no equal number of peo-
pie are to be found who appreciate SO keenly the necessity of an
intelligent knowledge of the worlds daily dongs. They recog-
nize that they, more than anyone else, are the worlds providers
in many of the most important necessaries of life. How i'm
portant, then, that they should have their daily intelligence of
every event, the world over, which by any possibility can affect
their diversified commercial holdings. And in all the higher
interests of life where can be found a like number of people
more keenly appreciaiye of all that contributes to progress in
art, literature, science, religion, politics, and the thousand and
one things which make up modern civilization.
And yet, strange to say, right here in this great, busy north
west, in its busy metropolis Chicago, there has taken place the
creation and development of that most %cumbrous, unserviceable,
tmedestroying thing, the "blanketshcet newspaper. With the
blindness of very faulty this monstosty of journalism, this breeder
of mental dyspepsia, has ~steadfastly imposed its mountain of I'M
threshed straw to the demand of the people for the winnowed grain
of fact. 1t was out of the very incongruousness of such a condition
of things that THE DAILY News had its birth. People wanted the
News,-all the news--but they demanded it apart from the over
powering mass of the trivial and inconsequental. 1t is because
THE DAILY News satisfactorily meets that demand that its circula-
ton is over " amilion a-week."
r. N. LAWRENCE, Williamsvlle, ILL.,, says: "The sbg daily is
too much for me. Not that a person is obliged to read every
thing printed in the 'banketsheets,' but one having anything
else to do doesn't have time to hunt through the long drawn
twaddle for a few grains of digesible food"

REMARKABLE HONESTY.

Debt of Honor Repaid with Interest
 After Twenty Five Years.
 The payment to citizen of New Haven of more than half q million of dollars un- der remarkable circumstances is reported in the New Haven Regixter, which vouches for the truth of the story. That journal says that at the beginning of the civil war wealty Southern grocer, who had recently taken his young bool-keeper into partnership, fearing that his property would be coniis cated, decided to go North. He told the book keeper to use the property, valued at about S400 900, as he thought best, and that he would reply upon the book keepers honor for settlement at some future time The merchant then went North and settled in New Haven He en- gagged in business and prospercd. There seemed but ittle probability of the property he had left behind him in the South surviving the convulsion of the war, and he made no inquiry about it for some years after peace was pro- claimed. Ultimately, however, friend, we'll known lawyer in New Haven, was going South, and the merchant requested him to inves stigatc, and collect if there was any thing to collect.
 A correspondence rith the book-kecpcr at the s1::ssts,. V as thus opened up, and the is.tssgr forwarded an acknowledgment of the claim. and an inventory showing his indebtedness to his former employer to be s64S, 0)0, and expressed his desire to re- turn the property, but requested time to perfect his arrangements. He began re- hitting several years ago, and recently forwarded Iae last payment, including interest, thus wiping out debt of honor.

HANDLE WITH CARE.
Why We Should Always Be Careful of the
 Feelings of Friends.


 sHandle with care" Thus we label glass; china and other articles of value, whose delicacy make it essential that they be not roughly dealt with One careless jar may dash the beautiful vase or other delicate treasured heirloom to ruins. Once shat tered, 1t can never be mended. It can never again possess either usefulness or beauty If the treatment be little less se- we're, it may not be shattered to atoms and yet may sustain an injury almost as hope less The ugly crack nick in it's fair, smooth surface must always be q grievous and unsightly object Toward it onS can never cast his eyes without feeling of pitt iful repulsion. There is something of far greater value than glass or china which, for the same reasons. should be handled with care. It is the feelings of our friends But, oh! how careless we are of them! How we ride rough-shod over the heart-strings and tender sensibilities more subtle, tine and sensitive than tue veins in the mimosa leaf We crack joke and then laugh so loudly that we do not hear the cracking of this fine spun-glass, deep down in the bosom of our friend. We ridicule the sub- feet most dear to his heart We trample on the tender buds that were just putting forth perhaps for our own benefit and which later might have become garden of perfumes for us We e" free our minds" and let the arrow hit where it will; and, perhaps. live on for long years without even knowing where it hit We may never see the hicks and cracks and breaks we have made in our choice friendships; and oh, sadder still, saddest of all, if we see we can never, never mend theml friendship once broken can never be wholly restored in all its purity and beauty. The broken china can never again be perfect A patched-up friendship will always show the seam It may not be the fault of either friend Tho smitten one would gladly be healed The smiter may pour out half his soul in penl- tence and longing to undo the mischief HI can not change the inevitable There is no remedy
 Alleviations are possible. Comfort to the patient may be secured The friendship may rise up again and walk; but there is that wooden legl
 Beneath the mutual smile of understand ing there turks the memory of that past doubt, that mistrust; and time can not ob- literate that gap which once yawned.
 Oh, let us then touch tenderly the feelings of our friends, our choicest goods. Let us label them in large letters. Trust. Faith, Confidence. Then this precious china closet, in still larger capitals, write: Frail, Perishable, Handle With Care "-Ohristian at Work.

PURSUED BY BIRDS.
Spirited Fight Between Five Robins, Tivs
 sparrows and a Squirrel

sparrows and a Squirrel
 According to correspondent of the New York Times an odd com bat was witnessed on the corner of Hone and Picrpont streets, Rondout few days ago between five robins, about an equal number of spar rows and squirrel. The birds were all arrayed against the squirrel The fight lasted over an hour. When first discov- cred the birds were chasing the nimble. footed animal from branch to branch of a large tree. The birds swooped down on the squirrel and pecked it with their sharp bills In vain the littio animal tried to catch it's enemies and defend itself from their repeated attacks It ran from tree to tree it in it's efforts to escape. Its feathered antagonists were always on hand and bounced on it unmercifully. Then the squirrel tried a new means of escape. It ran down the tree, crossed the road, and a moment later was seen on the roof of a neighboring house. The birds espicd it and once moro renewed the battle. Down the leader of the house slipped the risky little animal, the birds all the while utter ing shrill cries. Across the street it darted back again and up the tree where the fight first began. Attack after attack was made by the robbins and sparrows, In among the leafy branches and crotches of the tree ran the squirrel, seeking hiding place. The birds gave it no rest but kept continually darting and pecking at it. Finally it ran to the top of tree, crawied out on a slender limb, and dropped on the roof of Mrs Barher's house. It clam bered over the roof, pursued by the birds. Down the leader it slid rapidly, and, running across the yard, disappeared from view and from further pursuit Probably the squirrel had been after eggs and was caught in the act

MANS CAPABILITIES.
How Nicely They Are Proportionod t

How Nicely They Are Proportioned to His Capacity.
 Our capacity is our power of receiving and containing; our capability is our power of out-putting. In the root both words arc one, as in the source both powers are one. Our capabilities are proportioned to our capacity; for what we do not hold in store we can not draw upon for out-giving. But while our capabilities are proportioned to our capacity, 1t does not follow that our producing will show itself in the direction of our receiving. What we have most capacity for, we may be least capable of !; what we arc most capable of, we may have least capacity for. The scientest sometimes gathers his best strength from reading poetry, the poet from reading science. To
 one who has a work to do, most serious
 mistake in confusing his capacity with his
 capabilities. To be fond of poetry is no
 sign of a mission to write poetry. Ono
 may be poetical in his taste without being
 poet, scientific without being a scientist,
 scholarly without being scholar, artistic
 without being an artist But he who fills
 his heart with the truths of the poets may
 work them out in heroic deeds; he who
 fills his mind with the laws of science may
 work them out in the mechanic arts; he
 who familiariEes himself with the achieve
 ments of scholarship may work out the ap-
 plication of the scholars methods to tho
 everyday business of hfe--to exactness
 and thoroughncss. So, too, if you have
 capacity for suffering your capability is
 not to make others suffer, but to sympa-
 thize, and to mitigate tho sunasinSs a etheEss--&. $. UnssA
