The general result, while it does not
show flattering increase in the pro-
duction of sugar from cane, shows a
heavy advance in the amount Of beet
sugar manufactured. Whether or not
t! e exI er.ments now Icing made with
sorghum cane prove satisfactory, it is
quite certain that much attention will
be devoted to beet sugar in Kansas.
There is every reason to believe that it
will prove profitable in this state. Ex-
perinents SO far have proven very
satisfactory. Beets grow we'll in our
soil and climate, and are as rich in
saccharine qualities as the product of
California or Germany. The further
experiments of the present season will
be closely watched, and if the results
make as good showing as it is expect
ed they will, a strong impetus will be
given to the building of more factories.

OLD methods of natural gas boom
ing, which produced quite an illumin-
alton for the time being, have had their
sway. Like that which initiates Il
balloon, it loses its bouyancy, and in
fact its existence, and descends to the
earth in collapsed condition. Infla-
ton by gas serves no valuable purpose

days of fieticious values receeding.

GALLANT OLD SHERMAN.
How He Was Interviewed and Kissed by a
Strange Young Woman.

How He Was Interviewed and Kissed by
Strange Young Woman.
Colonel l.. M. Dayton, of Cincinnati,
who recently visited in Detroit was
General Sherman's Adjutant-General
during the Atlanta campaign and on the
famous march to the sea. After the war
he received a commission as Captain
of cavalry in the regular army and was
detailed at General Sherman's headquar-
ters, resigning in 1870.
Colonel Dayton has natural dolicacy
about making the little peculiarities of
the brusque old General, with whom he
was so long associated, subject Of con-
versation, but admitted while here the
authenticity of an incident which is re-
lated as happening the last year of the
war.
General Sherman was travelling to st.
Louis, with Colonel Dayton as his only
companion. The General had drawn
the cape of his big overcoat up over his
head one night and was endeavoring to
catch few winks Of sleep, when the
train stopped for a few moments at a
station. Colonel Dayton had got off the
train to stretch his legs in a little prom
enade when woman approached him on
the platform.
you're military man, aren't you?"
she asked.
"Yes." said the Colonel.
"Please tell me what car General
Sherman is in, will you?"
"The brakeman there will tell you,"
he said, wishing to shift the response
bility for disturbing the General. BY a
sign the brakeman was made to under
stand that it would be all right and he
gave the desired information. The
woman entered the car designated,
walked to where the General was, and
began pulling at the cape over his head.

"Yes, madam" gasped the awakened
warrior.
General Sherman, felt that I must
see you. wanted to look at you and
talk with you. had three brothers in
your army, in the Fifteenth Corps. Two
of them will mover come back"
The General straightened up in a
minute and his eyes got little moist.
He would have done any thing for her
after that. Three brothers in his COM
mand and two killed! He sat there and

WIT AND WISDOM.

Genius is the infinite art of taking
pains.-Carlyle.
Many man knows dollar by sight
who does not know its value.
When keen ear meets a cutting re-
mark it is natural that a sharp encoun-
ter should ensue.
Every man knows how mean he Is
himself, but is not absolutely sure about
his neighbor; hence his fondness for
gossip.
With us, law is nothing unless close
behind it stands a warm, living public
opinion. Let that die or grow indiffer-
ent, and the statutes are waste paper,
lacking all executive force.-Rural New
Yorker.
"A slight divergence at the outstart
carries the arrow far out of the way at
tho end, just as a false step in starting
gives life result that is disastrously
wide of the mark. To begin we'll is to
begin true, and with sure aim.
No enjoyment, however inconsider-
able, is confined to the present moment.
A man is the happier for life from hav-
ing made once an agreeable tour, or liv-
ed for any length of time with pleasant
people, or enjoyed any considerable in
terval of innocent pleasure.-Sidney
Smith.
To mon addicted to delights, busi-
ness is an interru ption; to such as are
cold to delights, business is an enter
tainment. For which reason it was said
to one who commended dull man for
his application, "No thanks to him; if he
had no business he would have nothing
to do."-Steele.
The touch of the lightning on the
top of the mountain is only an instant
long. yet 1t may rend the rocks. and de-
face the cliff and leave fissures that CEN
turtles can not fill up. Let no man say
that he is debarred from usefulness by
the shortness of his touch with the
world.-The Central West.
Under no circumstances should the
expenses exceed the income. 1t is al
ways more profitable to pay "spot cash"
than to contract a debt, which should
not be done unless it is absolutely una
voidable. Never should an indebted
ness be incurred in anticipation Of an
expected gain. Expectations are not
realizations; the debt is certain and
must be met, but the gain-well, "there
is many a slip"
1t is the petty details of life that
prove tiresome and wear us out, rather
than the larger. 1t is the little affairs
that worry and work mischief in the
nervous system. Lives of simplicity
will secure the most freedom from these
details, with consequent case OF mind
that is conducive to health and long life.
Excepting up with the times" is what
makes a good many Of the details Of
these lncdern days.

GEoRGlA'S BOY SOLDIER.
The Most Youthful Upholder of the Con
federate Cause.

The Most youthful Upholder of the Con-
federate Cause.
Macon can very readily lay claim to
the most youthful upholder OF the honor
of the Confederate cause in the person
of Mr.. Ben Goodyear, who, scarcely in his
fourteenth year, was found in tho front
rank of company from this city that
joined the SiXty-fourth Georgia regi-
ment, and who clung to it from the day
it left the Central City for st. Simond's
Island to the sad hour of Appomattox,
where he, with the handful that were
left, surrendered to the overwhelming
legions of Grant. At this surrender,
the colors of the regiment, by that timere-
duced in size to the dimensions of a nick
ell pocket handkerchief, were entrusted to
him, and he at once concealed them in
his bosom under his gray jacket. That
night the camp where the worn-out Con-
federates tried to secure the rest so
much needed from the excitement and
fatigue Of that fatal day was raided by the
Federal soldiers who were near, and Ben,
in the arms of Morpheus and no doubt
dreaming of home and mother, knew
not the hour when the camp maraudors,
rapacious for loot, stopped over his re-
cumbent form and cut the precious BAN
ner from its repository upon his faithful
heart. AT the same time he was reliev-
ed of his knapsack, haversack and every
other available aricle. "Uncle Ben"

and considered it the highest honor of
all that was conferred on him through

AN OLD WAR HORSE.
A Confederate Charger That Reached
the Ago of Thlrty-Three Years.

A Confederate Charger That Reached
the Age of Thirty-Three Years.
There recently died on the farm of
Colonel Craighill, near the City of
Lynchburg, Va, a horse that enjoyed
the supposed distinction OF being the
only survivor in the South of the cavalry
steeds of the civil war. He had reached
the age of thirty-three years, but almost
up to his last hour, at the very time that
he had fallen into extreme decrepitude,
it is said that his spirit would at once
revive at the sound of cannon or mus
kerry, or the strains of martial music,
although so long a period had passed
since he had gone into battle. His
original owner, having been a member
of the famous Stonewall Brigade, had
christened him "Old Jack" after the
immortal Stonewall, and the old horse
seems to have been worthy of the name
he bore, which was the familiar title
that the soldiers of jackson gave to
their great commander. "Old Jack" re-
ceived two wounds in the various
charges in which he took part but
neither could have been very severe, as
he had vigor enough left to live to a
very advanced age for a horse. From
the hour that the war ended, he had
been required to perform only very
light service, it being very properly
thought that no heavy burdens should
be imposed on an animal that had so
distinguished history. Upon his death
his owner gave him honorable burial,
and we understand proposes erecting a
suitable monument over his grave

NON SINE LACRYMlS.

1t was that hour when vernal Earth
And stormy March prepare
To greet the day of April's fearful birth
That i, o'crcomc with care,
Rose with the twilight from ilrolcss hearth
To take the fresh first air
And smile OF mornings mrth.
Tired with old grief's self-pitying moan,
mile had not struyed
Erc my dim path grew dark with double zone
OF men full fair arrayed,
While blent with sound of battle-trumpets
blown
Came, as through light comes shade,
Cries like an undertonc.
Plumcd with torn cloud, March led the way,
With spearpoint keen for thrust,
And eager eyes, and harnessed form swathed
' gray
with drifts OF windblown dust.
Round his bruised bucliler in bright letters lay
This scroll which toilors trust:
Non sine putUere.
Wet rs from weterng showers and seas,
April came after him.

Though sorrow-staincd and dim:
Non sine iGcrymis. H.
Those passed like regal spirits crowned,
Strong March and April fair;
And then n sphcre-made music slow unwound
Its soul upon the air,
And soft as exhnlations from the ground,
FOrspring flowers here and there,
These words rose through the sound:
Man needs these two in this worlds moil,
Barths drought and dew OF spheres,
Griefs freshcning rain to lay the dust of toll,
Tolls dust to dry the tears.
To all who rise MS wrostlers in life's coil
Time gives. with days and years.
The wrestler's sand and OIL"
Toll in vain without surceasel
o Grief no hand can stay
Think on these words when work or woes in
crease:

Grows to full stature and Gods perfect peace,
