THE BEEF RING,

AAA nAGE xkANGs
 The growing of cattle for beef on; the vest srn ranges was once very profitable, but things have changed so that now but few of the cattle raisers make much, and many of them lose. The cattle growers of Texas have been talking the matter over and they think that when it is considered that the value of their product has declined over sixty per cent, and that consumers of meat throughout the United States are compelled to pay the same price for meat, and, in some instances, higher prices for their daily supplies, as they did when the cattle growers received a nor. mai price for cattle, it will convey some idea of the magnitude Of the wrongs we are suffer- ing and the great importance the matter bears to the commercial welfare of our com mon country. They further say: Estimate the annual consumption of meat at 10, 900 ,00O head, which is equivalent to one animal for every six and q half of our population, ,and, in the absence of any correct statlsti cal infor- nation on the subject, this is believed to be . very conservative estimate, we are losing the enormous sum of two hundred millions of dollars per annum, and this fabulous sum, reaching almost to the value of the entire cotton crop of the United States, goes into the hands of a comparatively few butchers. and, to large extent, into the hands of four mon in Chicago, commonly known as the "Big Four"
 It has been evident for a long time that the Chicago ring was making more money;than anybody ought to make out of other people, but all attempts to defeat their well laid schemes have been flat failures. It is heavy tax which they levy on the people.

ONLY WAITING.

All things come round to him who will but wait, that is, all things but the payment of the French spolistion clsims. The justice of these claims has been asserted by every con- gressional committee which has inquired into the matter since the publication of the diplo- matic correspondence relating thereto and by the greatest of OUT statesmen throughout the century; Marshall, Madison. Pickering, Clin- ton, Webster, Everett, Clayton, Livingston, Cushing, Choate and Sumnsr-these are some of the men who have formally declared the justice of the French claims and besought the nation to right a great wrong. But though the validity of the debt could hardly be questioned, and though the nation has even been urged to remove the stain upon its name by every one of the original thirteen States, the claims still stand. When bill for the payment of the claims has passed the senate 1t has been thrown out by the house; when it has passed the house it has been thrown out by the senste. When the house has failed to pass the bill the senate is always sorry; when the senate fails to pass it the house is grieved; and when, as has happened twice, the President has vetoed the measure, both house and senate deplore the result. Nearly fifty times congressional committes have made reports favorable to the demands of the claimants; eight times the senate has passed bills looking toward the payment of the claims, and three times tho house has taken similar action; but 80 far as anyone can see, the claimants are no nearer than ever to the prize.
 This condition of things it outrageous. A government which can't be honest and just with its own people isn't worthy of George Washington and the country of which he Xaa the father

 I own one of these intelligent horses my self I have never noticed him "politely passing hsyn to the other horses in the stable, but possibly it Is because there are no other horses. I have frequently observed him dividing his oats with tho hens, which is much the same thing. The fact is, the peo- pie who sheer at these stories of the remark able intelligence of animals are coarse and unintelligent people, who know nothing about animals. The moro people study their brute companions, the more clearly and cor- reetly do they understand, neigh comprehend them. Look at the wilk Indian; what he doesn't know about horses isn't worth know ing. And he believes his horse will go to heaven with him. Whether the horse be- lieves that the Indian will go to heaven or not, we have no means as yet of ascertaining. This horse of mine, am confident, has opinions on the subject, because one of his favorite books is "Barns'n' Oats on Timothy. , He is, however, I grieve to say, heartlesa sort of brute; the sound of whoa never moves him. Like all we'll bred horses, he has . certain sense of humor, and one day, when my little boy quoted, in his presence, the line.

 N. Vile, professor of chemistry at Paris, announces that he has discovered new com pound, consisting of mixture of phosphate of chalk carbonate of refined potash and sulphate of chalk, which, placed around the roots of the vines, will defy the attacks of tho phylloxera, and will at the same time greatly increase the abundance of the crop. It is officially computed that during the last year 10, 900 persons have emigrated from the government of Wilma, Russia, chiefly to America. This wholesale emigration has had an unsettling effect upon the Russian psas- ants of the same province, who, without the necessary means, are emulating the example of their richer neighbors. The authorities are interfering to stop the emigration. No wonder people want to get away fromRussia. In the list of the January matriculation examination at the London university just issued the noticeable fact is the small pro- portion of women who have been successful. | Out of 175 women who were candidates tho names of 47 appear in the list, as compared with 30 last year out of a slightly smaller number of candidates. Another remarkable feature in the list is the snallnsss of the total number of candidates who go out with honors. In January, 1889, there were but 47. Now, however, the number has fallen to 19. Tho failures generally are exceptional, though most marked in the case of tho wo- man candidates.

 By comparing the list of books publishsd
 in this country in 1Sso with the list for 1888
 1t is found that there has bssn great falling
 of in poetry. tho drama and literary history,
 600 fewer volumes having been issued last
 year than during the year before. The de-
 crsass in England for the same time is 60O The whole number publishsd in this country
 was 4,014, the lowest total that has been
 reached for number of years. In England the whole number was c. .067. The falling of in England is in the same departments where the lists are smaller in America. The showing is that fiction gains constantly, while books of higher order are read less and less.
 Victer Poissant, young electrician Of Omaha, has very ingenious way of killing

 ordinary oval trap, the bottom of which
 is covered with tin. MT. Poissant has a
 small dynamo of his own manufacture. One wire connecting with the dynamo is fastened
 to the tin lining of the trap, and another Is
 thrust into the prisoners cell. The we'll known propensity of oaged rat to do battle asserts itself, and he seizes the wire between his teeth. In 50 doing he makes the mistake of his life. The circuit is complete, his jaws close on the wire with death grip, and without . squeak and almost without a culver he passes into a state of eternal desuetude.
 
 Swedish colonization will soon be an ac- oomplished fact in Vermont. MT. Valentine, the commissioner of agricultural and msnu- featuring interests, is just completing ar- engagements for settling dozen families from Sweden in Vershire, a town about thirty
 miles from the capital,of the State. The people of the town are said to be "thorough- ly in earnest regarding the proposed coloni-
 zation scheme, ," and the citizens' committee 1 seventy-fve to 100 acres each at prices rang. ing from 8 to $5 per acre, and "also agree 1 to loan $25 in cash and furnish COW for [ stipulated period to each family" It is sx.
 pected that about thirty Swedish families, numbering 150 persons, will be established in Vermont the coming spring.
 It iz pleasing to read that the late MT. Big gar has left considerable property. In addi- tion to his own income derived from large ] and prosperous business, he inherited lega- cy of $200,000 from his father few years ago. The latter was strict Presbyterian and heard with horror of his sons conversion to the Roman Catholic church. The oorrespon. dence between the two was characteristically
 laconic MT. Biggar, senior, cut out from a newspaper tho paragraph announcing his | sons admission to the Church of Rome, and | inclosed it with the following note: "Dear ! Joseph: Ia this true! Yours, J. B." MT. Biggar, MP, replied on the fly sheet: "Dear father: It is. Yours truly, J. G. B." Afte, this the father threatened to disinherit the
 son, but relented before he died, and did
 nothing worse than to cut him of with the trihe of $200. .00O mentioned above.

 At a musicale few days ago happened to notice that in roomful Of ladies to whom light wines were offered there was not one who refused. At a crowded evening recep- ton 1t was the men who fingered about the punch bowl after supper, but this might eas. fly have been because they were so busy ser wing the ladies in the earlier stages of the proceedings. In the confectionery establish ment patronized by the fashionable where 8 woman can order anything from g mint julep to sherry cobler, it excites no surprise to see @ lady weary with shopping take clear brandy or whiskey straight as an- other woman would take beef tea. It would excite much surprise to see any woman show the slightest evidence of intoxication. A Pretty Western Preacher. | From the Pittsburg Leaders New York Letter. l l The Rev.

She is young and more than common | ly attractive with an oval face, regular feat. ures and large soft eyes. Her hair is blown and curls about her face. It is gathered in 6 soft knot at the nspe of the neck behind. Her voice is pleasantly modulated, but the great charm of her presence lies in the ex- pressive face, which is at once sensitive and I reposeful.
