A RemnrkabIe Crclone Relic.

f.. S. Wilson, a blacksmith of Ozark,
Mo-, has a relic of the MarshGeld cyclone,
which occurred ON Sunday, April IS,
1880, that is very remarkable curiosity.
The witness of one of the freaks of the
great storm is a black quart bottle, bent
by some mysterious force into an ellipse
without a crack or break in the glass
that the closest scrutiny can discover
The neck of the bottle actually touches
the edge of the bottom, and the fact that
the glass was not broken in any way by
the strange force of the storm is shown
by the test of its holding water or any
other fluid. By gradually turning the
bottle as the water is poured in, it can be
nearly filled to its full capacity, so as tc
show the perfect soundness of the mate.
rial. This bottle was found by Mr.. Will
son the day after the Marshfield disaster
and examined by Prof. Tice, who soon
came to the scene Of destruction to study
the phenomena of the cyclone from Q
scientific standpoint. The famous mete.
orologist attributed the bending of the
bottle to the force of electricity. The
bottle was found in the wreck of one of the
Marshfeld drug-stores. Mr.. Wilson has
been offered extravagant prices for the
curiosity, but declines to part with the
relic,-St. Louis Giobe- Democrat.

Wholesale DasertiOn.

In the United States Army there are
about %, 900 enlisted men, but since 1873
there have been over 10000 desertions.
In point of numbers the entire army de-
serts in about eight years. This startling
fact makes it self-evident that there is
something radically wrong with the SER
vice. As to what it is there is not much
room for doubt.
To illustrate, Captain of cavalry re-
Gently wrote to a Western paper advo-
eating the branding of all army men with
a hot-iron so as to make less difficult to ar
rest the delinquents. The man advocat-
ing this barbarous practice commands q
post. What kind of treatment would the
soldiers get who are at the mercy of this
brutel And he is fair specimen of a
good many of the commanding officers.
Let any person go to West Point and
take observations on the graduating class
there and tell how many of them are fit
to be entrusted with the control of en-
listed men. But these young Lieutenants
are put in positions which enable them to
tyrannize over the privates.
Drunkenness among army officers on
frontier posts is a common thing, as the
records of the service show. Privates are
apt to have hard time under such men,
and it is at these posts that desertions are
so common. Privates are obliged to
polish shoes, do chores about officers
houses, wait on their families and do all
kinds of disagreeable work. That is
where the trouble arises. An army board
recognized this fact some years ago and
recommended that privates be paid extra
for work done outside of their regular
duties. To some extent this recon-
mendation was carried out, and just to
that extent was desertion lessened.
There is need of further reform in that
direction and also greater need of reform.

to understand that they are mortals and

FRUITS INJURED ny BLEACHING.

Bleaching dried fruits has become
quite common, but no good reason can be
given for the practice, They look whittier
if bleached-so does the farmers hay
but the quality or natural fruit flavor is
always injured by the process. 1t is
done chiefly in evaporators, by adding
sulphur or birthstone when the fruit is
partly dried. The history of its origin
is uncertain. Some one began it, and as
it pleased those commission dealers and
cooks who prefer whiteness to quality,
bleached fruit had boom in price, and
other evaporator owners felt obliged to
follow. In some places there is already
a reaction. The quality of the green fruit
can be told pretty well if it is of the natu-
raj color, but not if it is bleached. Eva
porated fruit is preferable to most sun OF
slow dried, as it is cleaner and, in damp
weather, much less likely to injury in
drying. In future, intelligent and OBJ
serving consumers will patronize evapora-
tor owners who do not bleach their fruit

A SONG OF THE ROAD.

Come, comrades, since the way is long
Let's liven 1t by tune and song,
And greeting give 70 all we pass;
To white-of-head, to light-of-head,
To matron grave and laughing lass.
Hurrah for lane and by-way,
For distant path and nigh way, -~
For friends we greet, for foes we meet,
Along the worlds broad highway
Tis morning-brealS; 1.-THE limbs are strong; :,
Who dreams Of crime and guilt and wrong9
1on youngling and his violet eyesP
Nay, light-of-mind and love-so-blnd
Are wisdom-proof and folly wise.
Hurrah for lane and by-way,
For distant path and nigh way,
For friends we greet, for foes we meet
Along the worlds broad highway
Tis noontide; let us spend an hour
Dream drinking ere we lose the power,
And all our pleasure disappears,
Since slight-of heart and blight-of-heart
Have sworn the goblet smacks Of tears.
Hurrah for lane and by-way,
For distant path and nigh way,
b For friends we greet, for foes we meet,
Along the worlds broad highwayl
Tis night and low; foul thieves have mobbed
The weak ones here and left them robbed
Of hope, and faith, and love, and rest:
But sure-of-soul and pure-of-soul
Still fold their treasures to their breast.
Hurrah for lane and by-way,
For distant path and nigh way,
For every one whose journeys done,
Who's gained the distant sly-way
