wheat II America.

Concerning the introduction Of wheat
into America, reliable information Ii OBJ
tainable. It may be difficult ia the present
day to realize the fact that wheat was at
one time unknown IN America. Yet prior
to the discovery OF this continent BY Co
lunbus there was no cereal in America
approaching Ia nature to the wheat plant.
It was not until 1880 that wheat found
its way into Mexico, and then only by
chance. 4 slave Of C0rtaz found a few
grains of wheat in o parcel Of rice, and
showed them to his master, who ordered
them TO be planted. The result showed
that wheat would thrive well on Mexican
soil, aud today one OF the finest wleat
valleys III the world il near the Mexican
capital. From Mexico tl,e cereal found

entire product being used for seed for

dor, a monk Of the order Of St. Francis,
named Fra Jodosl Bixi, introduced d new
cereal; and it IS said that The Jar which
contained the seed is still preserved BY the
monks Of Quito. Wheat was introduced
into the present limits Of the United
states contemp0raneously with the settle-
nest of the country by tho English and
other European settlers -Chicago Times.

the Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, March 19.-The decision
in the telephone css was read by Justice
Blatchford in the Unitsd States supreme
court today. Il comprised a very elab-
crate review of all the inventions of the
telephone which have come up TO claim
priority to the discoveries Of Bell and the
suits which have been conducted in the
courts to set aside the Bell patent. Judge
Blatchford said: There is nothing requir-
ing the operation Of his instrument before
patent issues. It IS the practicability of
the process that is to be shown. II is
true that when Bell got his patents he
thought the magnetic process best, but
that does not prevent him from using the
electrical process and attaining the same
results. Bell discovered the way to attain
the same results we have now in trans
hitting ~articulate sounds by electricity

The New Chinese Treaty Is Sent to the
Senate by the President.
WASHINGTON, March 18.-The presi-
dent today sent the new Chinese treaty to
the senate, but it has not yet been laid
before that body, as no session has been
held since its arrival. The treaty by its
terms runs twenty years. A Chinese
laborer who has 81, 600 worth Of property
here or that amount due him or who has
a lawful husband or wife or a child here
may, If absent, return within one year, or
If detained by illness the time may be ex-
tended TO two years. No other Chinese
laborers may come here on any terms.
Chinese merchants, scholars and students
may come only when provided with cer-
tificates by an American consul. The
treaty binds this country to pay to the
Chinese minister $276, 900 within one
year, which sum shall be accented as a
full settlement Of the claims against the
United States for injury suffered by Chi
nsmen here.
