The New York Press has the following:
"Chaurcey NJ. Depew, who has been down
south on a business tour, talked to the
Union league members at the monthly
meeting Thursday night about the negro
question. He said he found the southern
white mon sensible, sober, conservative.

and reason on every other subject but that
Of the black man." Mr.. Depew need not
ba surprised that the southern people re-
fused to accept his view with regard to the
race question in this section. 1t is possible
that they even laughed at him. They had
perfect right TO do 50. MIR. Depew has
lived in the north all of his life. He has no
practical knowledge of the race question,

Another American girl has married a
titled foreigner. The other day Miss Eliza
beth Thompson, a daughter of an ex-mayor
Of Detroit, was married to Count Won
Klsist. Of Germany. In this instance, the
peculiar feature OF the marriage was that
TIE count is wealthy. If the young lady
had only been poor, the couple would have
given the public something to talk about
for many days. The fact is, however, that
her father is q Standard Oil man, and
everybody understands that that signifies
great wealth.

Mark Twain may have to look to his lau-

laugh about as much as any other humorous
writer, but a rival is about to step to the
front, in the person of his wife. A book,
entitled "a Prince in Petticoats, or Kings
Folly" written by Mrs. Clemens, is about
to be issued. 1t recounts the exploits of a
young man in female attire at the courts of
Russia, Austria and other European coun-
tries. Mrs. Clemens writes under the no N,
de plume of ''Olive Laugford."

It is said that ex-senator Thomas C.
Platt wants to be President. Now, there
are very few men who would not like to b.
President, but what is moro to the point
with regard to Mr.. Platt is that he is set
ting up his pins to capture the republican
presidential nomination. Mr.. Plat seems
TO be much bigger man, so far as controll-
irg patronage is concerned, than he was
when he said "Me, too" and tried to imi-
tate the late Roscoe Conkling's strut as he
followed that gentleman out of the United
States Senate, but he will have to grow
nnarvelously in other respects befors he be-.
comes big enough for the presidency.

The Liquor Wolves.

How eloquent the wolves are when
pleading with the lambs to deliver up
the watch dogs of the flock in order
to aid the defeat of prohibition in
Pennsylvania, an association of liquor
dealers has been formed to correct
the abuses and raise the standard of
the trade. 1t argues that the liquor
dealers are good and greatly abused
citizens, who desire, above all things,
the enforcement of the laws regulat-
ing and restricting the traffic. They
regard the prohibition dog as a libel
on their good character and inten-
tons and want him killed off, SO that
they can go on with their patriotic
work of restriction without having to
carry their injured feelings in a sling.
They desire it to be distinctly under
stood that they are devoting their en-
tire time to the restricting business,
and if prohibition should leave them
nothing to restrict they would be out
of a chance to save the lambs and
raise the standard of the trade

Unhealthy Farm Houses.

In a recent lecture at the Cooper
Union, New York, DR.. Lucy NJ. Hall
described a typical country house,
surrounded with dense shade trees
that produce gloom and mould with
the best parlor always shut up close
ly lest the carpet should be faded by
the sunshine with small, ill-ventilat-
ed bedrooms, either in the middle of
the house or on the cold and dark
northern exposure !; with the we'll in
the house or near it the outhouses
joining the main building; q cellar
uncemented, and often wet with the
kitchen garbage thrown near the one
Widowed bedroom, in which the
father, mother and the small children
slept. The occupants were all ailing
and yet it eve occurred to them to
make a change or that their discom-
fort or illness were due to the construc-
ton and surroundings of their habi-
tations. They were ignorant of the
rudiments of sanitation, and sacrifice
ed their health to save their carpets.
The lecturer had personally visited
and inspected sixty-fve farm houses
in New England, the Middle States
and the Western States, and had
collected data from 100 more domi-
Giles in the same localities. From
the statistics thus CLEANED she had
prepared an instructive table from
which we select a few specimens /;
but cannot, for want of room, give
the relative percentages in different
sections. Many were built Oh wet,
clay soil, a larger portion were dense
ly shaded. Wells were close to
stables or to closets. Three-fourths
of the New England houses were
without any ventilating shaft. OF
the diseases existing in these abodes
rheumatism is most prevalent, lung
affections Especially phthisis) next,
diphtheria third, typhoid fever fourth
and bowel troubles fifth. Besides
these diseases there is maleria in all
the various forms of melancholia,
heart diseases, debility,
kidney troubles, throat affections,
etc.
The average country housewife is
afflicted with q mania to keep out
sunlight. The pale and ailing wo-
men among the well-to-do country
people exceed in proportion those of
any other class. These women take
no outdoor exercise of any kind, and
the result is an appalling array of
pallid daughters and narrow-chested
sons. The vine-clad, shade-embower-
ed houses sang of by poets and raved
about by artists are really the most
unhygienic in e%xistance.
Country houses should be built
with large and sunny living rooms,
with shade trees at a respectful dis
lance ; with well safe from the drain
age of earth closets and stables with
outbuildings remotely situated with
bedrooms on the second floor with
cellars cemented and extending I'M
der the entire house with temporary
awnings instead of permanent pro-
jecting porches, and everything about
the place constructed on principles Of
hygiene and common sense.-Trdn-

FARMING ON SHAREs.-There is
much divergence of practice in fixing
the rates for share farming. A great
many conditions are to be consider
ed. AS a rule, the best land is not
to be rented, as it's owner can make
more money by working it himself.
Anyway, he will not wish to have
strangers decreasing by their care
lessness the value of what his pains
taking care has made. This must
always place the man seeking a farm
to rent at a disadvantage. 1t is one
among the many incidents which al
ways tend to make the poor still
poorer. Another is that the man
who works the land on shares knows
that he cannot get much of an adj
vantage from any improvements he
may make. Hence, in most cases he
will not make any. A long-rented
farm thus, in the natural order of
things, becomes run down and I'M
profitable. In England, land is
scarce enough to enable the landlord
to impose onerous conditions, and
prevent the destruction of value of
his property. Here no such conditi-
on would be allowed. Land is cheap at
the West, and the renter in the East,
after a very short trial, is apt to pull
up stakes and move westward.

police are enforcing the decree.
Thaddeus b. Wakeman, of the
New York bar, has a decided opinion
on the temperance question. He
says "There are but two consistent
positions on the subject free trade

alcohol Except as a poison) if it is a
poison. Science has rendered her
verdict on the facts: 1t is a poison,

Texas has 100000 less people than
Kansas, and the liquor traffic. Texas
has two large penitentiaries, with 81
600 convicts. The spring court will
send about 500 more. Don't you
think prohibition a necessity?

Making Manures Available.

AS it is usually scattered over
barnyards during the winter, the
freshly made manure drawn out on
the land in the Spring cannot be ex-
pected to do much good the fore part
Of the season. Later on drought
is quite apt to make it work harm.
In a very cold Summer manure buried
six or seven inches below the surface
ferments slowly. 1t is found prac-
tically better to put a little concen-
trated fertilizer in the hill with the
seed, than to rely on the much larger
amounts of coarse plowed
manure will make a vigorous growth
of corn toward the latter end. But
what is wanted with corn is an early
and vigorous growth at the start. If
farmers could compost a part of the
Winter-made manures, mixing the
different kinds and adding some COM
mercial concentrated fertilizer, it
would probably be more Immediately
effective for corn than twice the
amount as usually applied in its un-
fermented state. 1t is quite common
in many places to use hen manure in
this way. We have known it to be
done with horse droppings freed from
straw and composted with German
potash salts, which help to keep the
mass moist while f~ermenting, and
prevent fi~re-fanging. If manure is
made fine enough it may be put
through force seed drills, and thus
covered with the grain seed as it is
put in the ground. This kind of
management makes some extra labor,
but the composing should be mainly
done under cover in Winter, or on
stormy days in Spring, when outdoor
work is not possible.

I0Mth's Column.
The Power of Voice.

A peaceful army of young readers
have fallen into line since the close
of the Civil War, yet the youngest of
them are familiar with many of the
details of that war, and no doubt
know of the noble Christian Commits
sion which supplemented the Sanitary
Commission, but had for its larger
care the moral and religious needs of
the soldiers.
Perhaps they know that its worthy
president was Mr.. George H. Stuart
of Philadelphia. Perhaps they do
not know that Mr.. Stuart still lives,
and that though burdened with the
weight of illness and advanced age
his eyes kindle over the memories of
the past, and he delights to recall the
varied incidents of that exciting Pc
Rod.
l have often heard him tell story
after story of the war, and one has
especially impressed me, as showing
the influence of a voice on the men,
Dry, and also what apparently slight
means Providence may use to preserve
a life from peril. 1 would like to tell
it to the boys and girls of to-day.
Mr.. Stuart was visiting a camp a
few miles below Washington, and in
the evening in company with two or
three other gentlemen-one of whom
was the late Mr.. William E. Dodge
of New York-held a prayer meeting
among the soldiers. Nine o'clock
was the regulation hour for closing,
but the interest was so deep that the
Colonel of the regiment said eco
on" and the meeting was prolonged
for half an hour or more. At least,
ten o'clock had come when the gen.
tlemen prepared to return to Wash
ington by carriage. But the Colonel
said, "You can't go to Washington
tonight the guard is posted already
Gas nine was the hour for guard
mounting), "and an order has been
issued that no civilian shall have the
counterslgn."
Imperative business required the
presence of Mr.. Dodge, and he said
he must be in Washington before
morning.
The Colonel said he would see
what could be done-perhaps the
magic "word'' would be given to Mr..
Stuart on account of his position. He
went to the headquarters, and return
ing soon, whispered the ''word" in
Mr.. Stuart's ear. Then he gave these
minute directions
