Some Unnecessary ImpOrtations.

1t certainly seems strange that this
agricultural country, full not only of
farmers but of villagers who rejoice
in the presence of the festive hen in
gardening time, should import eggs.
But it is a fact that it does. The
fiscal year which has just ended saw
nearly 100000 dozen eggs i'm
ported into the United States, and
between 80, 100000 and 100000
sent out of the country to buy eggs
alone. Since 1880 there has not
been a year in which there has not
been over 81 100000 sent abroad to
buy eggs for the market of this coun-
try, and in the last decade the sum
so sent out of the country was about
$4,000, 900. But the Importation
of eggs is not the only curious feature
of the craze for going abroad for
what might be had at home. There
is the article ofpotatoes, for instance.
Although there is no end to the pos
sibilities and probabilities ofpro-
duction in this country the importa-
tions of potatoes in the last year
have amounted to about 81, 900, 900
in value. There is barley, which it
seems as though the farming COM
munity might supply. There was
over So, 900, 900 worth of itimported
in the fiscal year just ended. There
is cotton goods. The East and South
are alive with cotton factories, yet
the importations in the year were
nearly $50, 200, O00.-Milwaukee Sen
tinel.

,xaer.ns. k.r, Him raon..s.

A story Is told of postmaster whose
lack of knowledge OF working his own
''nest" lost him an increase OF 500 on
his salary next year. When he sent his
returns in he lacked 81 cents Of the
amount called for by the law to permit
an adjustment of his salary. His reports
showed the yearly receipts Of his office
to be s., 09920. As the department al
lows fraction over Q half dollar to be
counted as q dollar, the postmaster
would have beer 800 more in his pocket
if he had had shrewdness enough to buy
81 cents worth of stamps out of his own
pocket. Since he sent his report he has
learned his mistake, and everybody in
the county now can kick him. His was
the only case of the kind in the 2,5o0.
It caused much merriment among the
clerks at the postofice department.

Sold the Wood and Himself Too.

said young farmer. "When boy

with my father upon farm near Col

the city and sell it for him. One day
had entered town with my GUS

head partly out of a window and
asked If the wood was for SALE I
replied in the affirmative. well, throw
it over the fence, came from the up

"The house was surrounded by a
high wall, but l managed to pitch it
over and then went around to the

get in; l hammered and called in

by my frantic efforts to gain an en-
trance, inquired what was the matter,

not get my money or the wood back,

Materialism In America.
LYMAN Abbott in the Century.

DR.. Lyman Abbott in the century.
I do not ask that men of wealth
shall give more money to the church,
which is often stronger when it is
poor than when it is rich; nor to the
poor and thriftless, whom unearned
money only keep in poverty. urge
that the power to make money, like
any other power, is a trust bestowed
on the possessor for humanity. The
preacher who breaches for his salary,
not for the spiritual well-being of his
parishioners, is a mercenary; the
physician who practices for his fees,
not to cure the sick, is a mercenary;
the lawyer who pleads for his honor
arium. not for justice, is mercenary;
the politician who enacts laws for
what he can make, not for the COM
munity, is a mercenary; no less the
manufacturer, the merchant, the
trader, the man on change, who
transacts his business to make money,
but to give the community it's meat
in due season, is mercenary. In the
history of the nineteenth century, the
doctrine that wealth is a trust must
stand by the side ofthe doctrine that
labor is an honor and liberty is an
obedience. The materialism that
threatens the American Church is not
the materialism of Herbert Spencer.
1t is the materialism of the railroad,
the factory, the shop-the material
ism that puts thinghood above man.
hood; that does not know that things
were made for man, not man for
things-that God gives us, not Irish
men to build our railroads, but rail-
roads to build Irishmen; not Hungari-
ans to dig our mines, but mines to
develop manhood in Hungarians.

Tha 0ueen,a Cats.

The big houses in London have lots of
eats about, which grow fat while folks
are in town and starve when they go out
to the country. This has caused much
distress to members of the animals in
stitute, particularly as even the queens
cats were subjected to the same difficult
ty. But this year it was humbly and
Loyalty pointed out to the queen that her
Windsor cats would starve while she was
away, whereupon her majesty was graci-
ously pleased to order them all put in
baskets and taken along to Osborne with
the rest of the court, which was done.
This has become fashionable. Soclety
papers solemnly inform us that prettily
decorated cat baskets are in great de-
mand, and the happy pussies may be
seen by dozens at the railway stations
going to mountain or seashore Just like
anybody else.-London Letter.

Four Lucky Men.

syracuse IN, - Herald, July II.
The United States Express company
yesterday brought just $40, 900 in cur
rency to the four lucky winners in the
Louisiana State Lottery and who are at
w. B. Soper & Co. g store in North Sa-
lima street. The book-keeper, Charles
Fl. Gaffey, receives $3.50; Albert L.
Ven Antwerp, one of the firm, $4,000;
Alexander Harrison, salesman, $4,000,
and Caleb Morgan, the former butcher
for the firm but now with Mahar &
Huntly, $3.50. The ticket that won
this sum, which was one-tenth of the
second capital prize of 800, 900, was No.
SO, 469, and it cost these four men just
two dollars, although they had more in
the pool. They are in the habit of pool
ing fifteen dollars month. Mr.. Gaffey
seemed very jubilant and justly so,
when called upon by reporter OF the
Herald to-day. He thought that the
Louisiana State Lottery was one Of the
squarest institutions he had ever seen,
and was earnest in his praise of the
promptness and exactitude of all its
dealings. He and his three compan-
ions have frequently been winners of
smaller amounts which have been
promptly paid. The last drawing took
place on the 10th instant and the mo-
ment the prize was drawn the result was
telegraphed to this city. The winning
ticket was then sent on, and in about
two weeks the solid cash came. Mr..
Gaffey said that there was not the least
trouble or inconvenience in getting the
money. His club will continue invest
ing in the lottery. This is the second
time that one-tenth of the capital prize
has been captured by investors in this
city. Clubs have been organized in all
parts of the city, but especially is the
rage the strongest in the Second ward,

The New style OF Fiction

The school of erotic fiction, of which
Miss Rives is regarded as the head and
inspiration, is growing fast, according
to the 'Lounger" of the Critic and that
contributor adds: 81 have in my mind
now three young girls, none of them
out of their teens, who have this sum-
mer given birth to imaginative ro-
mances the motive and treatment Of
which would have staggered George
Sands in her most 'emancipated' mo-
ments. OF course, the reviewers pounce
upon them, and then the unhappy young
women burst into tears, and declare
that they are the most miserable and
misunderstood of human beings One
of these overweight misses-with re-
membrance, perhaps, of her predeces-
sor's experience-is thrown by the crit
les structures into state OF nervous
prostration."

TIE LAND OF THE BEAUTIFUL DEAD.
John JEROME ROONEY:

/.
By the hut of the peasant where poverty
weeps
And nigh to the tower of the king,
Close, close to the cradle where infancy sleeps
And Joy loves to hnger and sing,
Lies garden of lightfu ofheaven's perfume,
Where never tear drop is shed
And the rose and the lily are in bloom
It's the land of the beautiful dead.
Each moment. of life a messenger comes
And beckons man over the way;
Through the heart sobs of women and rolling
Of drums,
The army of mortals obey.
Few lips that have kissed not motionless
brow,
A face from each fireside has fed,
But we know that our loved ones are watch
ing us now
In the land of the beautiful dead.
Not charm that we knew ere the bound'ry
was crossed,
And we stood in the valley alone,
Not a trait that we priced in our darlings is
lost;
They have fairer and lovelier grown.
As the lilies burst forth when the shadows
of night
Into bondage at dawn break are led.
So they bask in the glow by the Pillar
Light,
OF the dead, our dead, our beautiful dead,
Are close to the heart of Eternity wed.
When the last deed is done and the last word
is said
We will meet the in beautiful land of the deadl
