Girard, the famous French painter,
when young, called on Ian Juinais,
then Of Napoleon's council. The
young artist was poorly dressed and
met a cold reception, but Ian Juinais
discovered such proofs of talent and
good sense hat he arose with the
greatest courtesy and respect and nc
%companied his visitor to the ante
chamber when he took his leave.
The change of manner was so marked
that Girard looked his surprise, but
Ian Juinais anticipated his inquiry by
saying; My young friend, we receive
an unknown person according to his
dress; we take leave of him according
u his merits. Dry Goods Chronicle.

''Why does thunder sour sweet milk ~
Milk is peculiar, inasmuch as it is very
sensitive TO atmospheric changes.
Electricity, the cause of thunder, pro
duces, or, If it does not produce, fol
lows great and rapid changes in at
mospheric conditions. Lightning is
the discharge which comes of e%lectri-
cal inequalities, producing chemical
changes in the air. Thunder storms
represent the greatest activity Of cleo
trical phenomenon, and the best au-
thorities give it as their opinion that
the electricity in the atmosphere is the
prime cause OF milk souring during the
prevalence Of such storms. st. Louis

Recently | had a talk with an expe-
ricnced builder. Houses in New York
city said he, ''are built as badly as
ever. The men employed by the build,
ing department are undergrad. They
should be paid the present salary, plus
what they now get from builders to
close their eyes to defective work.
You see, "A speculative builder wants
10 put up his house as cheaply as pos
siblc, so he slips five, ten or twenty
dollars in the hand Of a city inspector.
Why, there r today houses uptown
that would tumble down if they were
built separately. Standing one next
to the other is the only thing that
keeps them up."-Epoch.

There is a passenger on the trains be
tween Wilmington and Philadelphia
whose eccentric conduct is beginning to
cause the conductors to wonder who she
is and what her business may be. She
is quite a handsome young person, GER
tainly not more than % years of age,
well dressed and perfectly proper in her
demeanor. For the past six or eve
months she has come to the city four or
five times a week, usually ON the Penn
sylvania railroad, but occasionally on the
Baltimore and Ohio. She is always alone
at the Wilmington depots, takes what
ever seat may be most convenient in the
car, and, so far as the trainmen have OBJ
served, has never spoken to anybody.
On arriving in the city, whether it be
at Broad street station or the Baltimore
and Ohio depot, she goes into the ladies'
waiting room, sits there perhaps an hour
or two, but sometimes half the day, and
her takes a return train to Wilmington.
She never seems to be looking for any
or to have gon outside the station
during the time between air s.-Phila-
delphia Inquirer.

SPRING JOY,


The wet red gIebe shines in the April light
The gray hills deepen into green again;
The rainbow hangs in heaven; thin vapors white
Drift DER the blue. and freckle hill and plain
With many moving shades; the air Is strong
with earth's rich exhAlations after rain.
Like a new note breaks forth the ancient song
OF springtide birds, with fresh hope. fresh de
light.
Low DER the fields the marsh hawk sails along;
Aloft small hOcks OF pigeons wing their flight;
Alive with sound and movement is the air;
The short young grass with sunlight rain Is
bright;
The cherry trees their snow white garlAnds wear;
The garden pranks itself with leaf and flower;
Quick with live seeds the patient earth lies bare.

THE publishers of the Des Moines
criminal libel on the charge of Frank
Pierce, a constable, and well-known pro-
hibition spy of Iowa. According to Bro.
Murphy,of the Dubuque Telegraph. there
can be no foundation In the charge, as he
thinks it is impossible to perpetrate a Ii
bel on Pierce. The Telegraph takes up
the cudgel in defense of its Des Moines
contemporary in the following pointed
manner:
The alleged libel ia embodied in an edi.
torial published in the Leader on the 4th
inst, headed, pierce as Reformer, "and
also in an article clipped from the Cres-
ton Gazette. What these articles say OF
Pierce we do not know, but whatever
their severity they have failed to ade-
quately depict his meanness and infamy
The English vocabulary, cOpious as it is,
is scarcely vOluminous and flexible enough
to fifty describe his character and conduct
1t follows. no matter what he may charge
that the Leader has not libeled him, for
neither our Des Moines contemporary
nor any other journal can perform the
impossible. Iowa has produced many
debased, INSCRIPTIONS wretches, but Of
whom Pierce is the most contemplate
1t is creditable to the Leader that 1t has
incurred his displeasure. THE Williams
censure is extorted praise"
Editor Murphy ought to come to Rocl
Island and spend few weeks bracing W
the backbone of the Union. in ordel
that it may not run away entirely the mex
time libel suit is brought against it.

Congress Not Appropriatiug Money This
Session for private Claims.
WASHINGTON CITY, July 15.-This SEES
sion of congress has been an exceedingly
poor one for claimants Speaker Reed
early in the winter disclosed the fact that
he was not disposed to encourage legisla-
ton looking to disbursements of public
money for claims against the government,
private or otherwise, and he has been sus-
tanned by large contingent in the house,
embracing the conservatives In each OF
the political parties. There are many just
claims that have been pending for years,
but they are so commingled with the jobs
that they suffer the fate of the latter.
No Show for the Direct Tax Bill.
The proper claims, the justice of W hich
can be established, in the majority of
cases have been assigned and re-assigned
so often that the original claimant has
been totally obliterated in the operation.
Consequently they are now looked upon In
the light of speculation, where outsiders
have invested time and money in them for
purely speculative purposes. The direct
tax bill, which is simply great mass of
small claims aggregating $23. 900 600,
passed the senate early in the session, but
no pressure which its friends have been
able to bring to bear has been sufficient to
get it consideration in the house

four hundred acre improved farm in jack
son county, Iowa, where he has hogs and
cattle by the hundred being fed on grass
end grain grown on his farm. He also is
president OF TIC Burlington wheel factory
at Burlington which takes a great deal of
his time. Mr.. Vinton will prove valu-
able acquisition to the next legislature / I
