What Washington Had for Dime,

The following is a verbatim COPY of
an autograph letter, now in possession Of
the New ! ork Historical Society, to
which it was presented by one OF the
heirs of the original recipient:
"WEsT POINT, Aug. 10th, 10.
DEAR DOCT.-l have asked Mrs Cochran
and Mrs Livingston to dine with me to-
morrow, but ought 1 not apprise them of

Some Diplomatic ROmances.

Many diplomats have recently welded
Americans. A few years ago. however,
there was even a greater eagerness to
wed American girls. One Del Campo,
OF the Chilian Legation, angled earnest
ly and widely for an American girl with
a fortune. He was a rogue and kept the
city in an uproar by his sprees. After
an unusually impassioned appeal to a
Washington girl he was recalled, and
returning by the way of Panama he
wrote letter to her, purporting to come
from friend, describing in vivid Ian
guage an account of the re ected Del
Campo's death by the dread fever of the
tropics. His obituary was done up by
himself in good sLape. The girl was
still lamenting her GOODNESS to the sen
sitive Southerner when she heard from
the Chilian who took her lovers plaoe
that the former attsche of the Chilian
Legation was now attache of horse car
in the Chilian capital.
These modern romances of American
girls aud foreign nobiemen cannot match
the alliance Of forty years ago-the IA
nous marriage OF the old Count de Bo-
| .lisco, the Russian Minister, and Miss
Harriet Williams, the Georgetown beau
! .y. He was old and decrepit 1t is said
hat he wore 'plumpers" in his cheeks
and dressed his poor, broken old form

| lfter he saw the beautiful school girl at
Aer fathers house in Georgetown. For
She was schoolgirl-only fourteen
when he married her. He sent her 10
europe to finish her education, and when
she came back she was the most beautl
iul womaG in America. A magnificent.
fair woman, with golden hair and brown
| eyes, was this young wife of the old
cunt de Bodisco. After leaving here
! her husband returned to Russia, and she
became the reigning belle Of St. Peters
burg. - Chicago Tribune.

DehoPning Cattle.

The subject Of dehorning cattle is re-
ceivlng more and more attention, not
only from stockmen, but farmers and
dairymen. The experience of the writer
the present winter has been wholly in
favor of removing the horns from all
kinds of cattle, dairy cows as well as
beeves. h small bunch of feeding steers
have so far by their inveterate quarrel
someness lost fully one-half of the value
OF their food by the constant vicious
fighting and disturbance in the herd.
One heifer has disturbed the peace of
lot OF yearlings, and has so worried
them that no gain of growth has been
made during the past three months,
while many have been damaged by the
bruising and tearing of the sharp horns.
The result has been the total loss of any
profit on the feeding and great deal of
mental worry. To house and tie up these
few cattle would cost much more than
could be made of them where beeves sell
for two and half to three cents per
pound. This experience being general
IN large and small herds, it seems as
though there is no relief but the removal
of the horns, Just as there is no relief
from analogous difficulties except by
emasculation. The only thing to be con
sidered is the best way to perform the
operation.
The horn is a prolongation of the
bones of the skull and a hard covering
which grows from the skin. The central
core is attached but loosely to the cover
ing, which in cases is very easily de-
tached by blow or wrench with little
pam and very small loss of blood. If

ton, which is very much less serious
than emasculation, is followed by much
more rapid healing, and no important
organs are involved as in the latter. A

be purchased for @l.5O or less, and which

How 1t Works.

In answer to many inquiries regarding the
rermanency of cures wrought by st. Jacobs Oil
towh'ch public attention has been specifcal-
ly called in many varied forms, the following
serves as n most exec lent example Of how the
great remedy performs its miracles and what
is meant by n permanent cure. Hundreds
have testified TO the same effect. Mr.. J. T..
Bonsall, Prothonotary, New Bloomfield. Perry
Co., Pa, in 1881 was permanently cured of
rheumatism. From the age of 15 to As, abou
80 years, he had suffered acutely at times from
the dread disease and at the date specified, he
was permanently cured by st. Jacobs Oil. In
proof of this, he wytes in 1886 that he has had
no recurrence of rheumatic pains since h S re
lief in 1881. Again in April, 1883, he writes as
follows: MY health continues good; no re-
turn OF rheuma ism since 1881 whencured by

What an Engine Consumes.

1t will perhaps interest some readers to
know how much fuel locomotive burns.
This, of course, depends upon the quality of
fuel, work done, speed and character of the
road. On freight trains en- average con.
sumption may be taken at about / to "
pounds of coal consumed per car per mile.
With passenger trains, the cars Q which
are heavier and the speed higher, &c coal
consumption is greater. 4 treight rain OF
30 cars at speed Of 60 miles per hour
would therefore burn from 800 TO 1856
pounds Of coal per hour.
