TnE DECLINE IN THE CUSI on foOD.
Rio coffee has become the standard article
in the trade, and has averaged II II cents a
pound for the year. Pork has averaged sl4.5o
a barrel. Flour has averaged si25 a barrel
for Minnesota straight winter wheat, which
is the lowest price known The average
wholesale price of peaches by the can has
been 5 IL cents during 1887, as against IA
cents in 1885. Sugar has also declined, the
average price for graduated being about Z
cents a pound.
On the whole, as can be seen by a glance at
the chart, the tendency has been toward
lower and lower prices for food, until now 1t
is scarcely possible to 60 lower without the
danger Of adulteration, which has already
ACCOMPANIED the decline in prices to an
alarming degree.
To combat this evil Of adulteration the
National Board Of Trade has drafted "a bill
to prevent the adulteration OF food and
drugs" To aid in the pushing of this bill
through congress a National Pure o con
vention will assembled in Wizards hall, Wash
ington, on Jan, 10, when 1t Is expected all the
health authorities Of the country, as well as
the honest producers Of food and drugs, Will
be represented. 1t is claimed that the object
Of legislation upon this subject is not only to
prevent deception, but to furnish authoIltlve
information TO the public so as TO nullify the
operations Of ignorant and sensational alarm
lists, who damage the bu9;naSs interests OF TIE
country as much as do tho evils Of which
they complain.

PETROLEUM.

Petroleum continues 10 be one OF the chief
speculative feature Of the markets. From
- cents a barrel in January il dropped to 81
cents in July, which was the lowest 1t ever
reached on the New York Exchange. From
the upward tendency which it showed during
tie last half OF the year it may be considered
probable that it viii reach a higher figure in
the spring than ii has for many years.
The following chart shows the changes In
the prices OF the principal articles OF food
during the last seventeen years, at intervals
Of two years. As there's no standard article
among the different food products, the en-
deayor has been TO show the Wholesale price
Of the same quantity Of a hike grade during
the different years. The pound prices OF
butter, tea, sugar and coffee arc gwen ana
the can prices OF peaches. Western creamery
butter has averaged 2i cents n pound; owing
20 tho prohibitory law on oleomargarlne
more milk has been turned into the cream
cries 70 be made into butter than has been
forwarded 10 the factories for the manufact-
ure Of cheese, consequently the price OF the
latter has been higher than it will DO next
year. when the factories will likely get more
than their proportion OF milk. The relations
OF milk. butter and cheese 10 one another are
fixed as follows: 100 pounds Of milk equal
a pounds OF butter, or ~ pounds OF cheese.
As a consequence Of the enforcement OF the
Federal legislation against oieomargariae,

Vigiantes Put an End to the Crimes of
Several Western Ruffians.
WOODWARD, Ind. T., May 19-Four men
were lynched Thursday night near the
western border Of the Cherokee strip
by vigilantes. Among them was one
of the notorious Chitwood boys, who
have been robbing, thieving and muir,
dering for years in the neutral strip
and in Southern Kansas. It is doubtful if
even the Benders were more cold blooded
or their crimes greater. One of the others
lynched was notorious criminal for whom,
it is said, numerous rewards had been Of
fered by Kansas authorities. He went I'M
der the name of 'Dandy'' Hook, but had
a score of aliases. The other two were
strangers in the strip and declined to give
their names. They protested their inno-
cence to the last, and there is no reasona-
BILE certainty that they were guilty. Stolen
horses were found in their possession, but
they claimed to have got them honestly.
All were hanged on the charge Of horse

It is said the opening of the great Sioux
Reservation will be no special advantage
to the people at large for several years. 1t
will require the remainder of this year to
secure the necessary number Of signatures
by the Indians. All Of 1889 will be required
to survey it; most of 1890 will be used in
having these surveys put through the
United States Land Office. Not until the
end of that year can settlers occupy the
land, and then only homesteaders can take
it, They must live on it four years and
then pay fifty cents an acre for it

RESERVED RIGHTS.
Or Joe Brown and the Ferryman-
An Unpublished Incident.

From the Macon (Gd.) Telegraph.
No man, in all Georgia, has been more
pronounced in his views on the reserved
Brown. Born near the home of John c.
Calhoun, he stood erect in the States Rights
doctrine "as one Of the straightest of the
Sect
But how it so happened that while a
mere youth, he impressed the people of
North Georgia with his restrictive views, is
illustrated in the following story, told on
the distinguished Senator by Col. I. j.
Boyd, of Barlow county:
The Browns were moving from South
Carolina into Georgia. AT that time they
were very humble in circumstances, and
while poor were regarded as good, honest
folks-such a peasantry as Georgia would
now gladly welcome to rebuild her waste
places.
The Browns were moving then to Haber-
sham county They reached Tugaloo river
at CARROTS ferry. Mackey Brown, the
paterfamilias, with the family, had crossed
over. The ferryman returned for the lad
Joseph and his team, which was the bull,
afterward so famous on the hillsides Of
Gaddistown, hitched to a two-wheel cart.
The ferryman demanded more toll than
Young Brown thought right. colloquy
ensued, whereupon the plucky young
emigrant from the land OF the Null
fiers walked deliberately up to the
sign post on which the schedule of rates
was fastened, and read aloud the formal
list. Turning resoluteiy to the ferryman,
be said "You cannot charge me a cent
for my bull and cart. Ny team is not
mentioned in your schedule. You can only
charge for teams included in the list.
Charters are to be construed strictly. Privi-
leges not granted are reserved. l stand
upon my reserved rights, and dare you to
violate your charter and receive toll for
teams not specified" And the historic
team passed over on to Georgia soil free OF
tariff.
The ferryman was struck with the pre-
cocity of the new conner, talked OF him to
his neighbors-and thus it was. III early
life. at the very threshold of his entrance
into Georgia, Gov Brown became famous
as n shrewd man in O trade.

Letter Boxes on Street Cars.

Letter boxes on the street car lines will

branch of the mail system in this country.
When box is placed ON the outer side OF
each street cur, mail dropped into it at any
time Of the day or night when tho car is
travelling to the centre of the city will DO
collected st the nearest point to the post
Office touched by the line of cars AS the
street car lines branch out into all sections
of the city and reach suburban localities
many miles from the central post office,
the system will be- Of general convenience.
The storekeeper in a suburban village i've
or ten miles from the city, as well as the
business man of Baltimore remote from
the centre Of the metropolis, will be enabled
TO reach city deliveries and outgoing or for
eign mails almost as promptly as mer-
chant located in the same block with the
Post Office. Collections from the street
boxes along the business thoroughfares
where cars travel will, of course, be no
longer necessary, and collections from boxes
on streets where the cars do not run can be
done conveniently by either foot or wagon
collectors now assigned TO work regular dis
tricts. The new service necessary to effect
the transfer of the mail from the street
cars al the points of collection to the FoSt
Office can be recruited from among the
collectors, many of whom would no longer
be needed In the Off districts, The non
central lines Of cars can DO utilized as well
as the central lines.
