Mrs. James K. Polk.

Nashville American, Sept. 4th.
Today the venerable widow of ex-
President Polk completes her eighty,
seventh year-a serene and peaceful
old age, with faculties unimpaired
and strength marvelously preserved,
with happy surroundings and hosts of
loving friends. She has grown old
gracefully and with dignity, and her
added years have been added honors,
her white hair a crown of glory. Her
life is patient, cheerful waiting upon
the shore of the great ocean which we
all must sail. May a complete cen
fury still leave her to receive the re-
newed and multiplied offerings of her
peoples devotion, and may the end
be as gentle as her life has been.

Yeast for House Plants.
Philadelphia Inquirer.

Philadelphia Inquirer.
"Teil me, please, what spells you
cast about your plants hatthey -four
ish so vigorously?" 1 asked lady
friend as l examined the lovely
blooms which fairly captured the big
bay window. One miniature tree of
heliotrope flooded the room with its
sweet perfume. Now this plant, she
said, is considered by some extremely
fragile, but it in reality only requires
plenty Of sun and water to grow most
luxuriantly. They are thirsty things,
and are often allowed to die for want
of sufficient moisture. An English
recipe has, however, furnished me
with the secret by which I may enjoy
all the season through a succession of
lovely blossoms. Delicate plants
water occasionally with yeast. This
seems to strengthen them in a wonl
derful manner. Then 1 have found
that seeds which absolutely refuse tC
sprout in the ground may be coaxed
into a vigorous existence by giving
them a bath Of camphor and water
putting them in the sun, and letting
them remain until they burst, wher
they are placed in the earth.

DEs MONIES, April 5.-The battle for
the repeal of the prohibitory law ended
disastrously in the house today.
The measure had been under discus
sion for several days, but by agreement
it was decided to end the discussion and
reach vote on the question before the
noon adjournment
This morning was occupied with
speeches by Smith, of Wapello, Russell
and Briggs in support Of the local op-
tion bill and by Head and Chase in sup
port of the present law.
Finally at 12 o'clock Richman arose
to close the debate. His speech was
short out it covered the ground in ad-
mirable form.
: AT its conclusion vote was taken on
Luke's motion to indefinitely postpone,
which was carried by vote of 81 to 40,
every democrat opposing and all the re-
publicaRs favoring it, along with Ewart,
the union labor prohibitionist, voting
with them.
AS these proceedings were had in
committee Of the whole the committee
then arose and reported the bill back to
the house for indefinite postponement.
The democrats then desired an ad-
6ournment, but the republicans opposed
and the motion was lost by tie vote.
The republicans insisted upon i'm
mediate action on the report Of the COM
mitee, but the speaker ruled that it
must be treated as reports of other COM
mittees and ii could not be taken up out
of its order without two-thirds vote.
The action of the house today is con.
sidered as a practical settlement of the
question and indicates beyond doubt
that the present law will not be
changed.

Halstead Laid On the Shelf.

CIScINNArI, April 4.-Quite a sensa-
ton was created in this city when
it was announced that Murat Halstead
had retired from the editorship of the
Commercial Gazette. Two weeks ago
Halstead left for New York, and sin .e
his arrival in that city reports have
been sent out that he will make New
York his home and edit the paper from
there. But there is another side to the
story. During tho last campaign Hal
stead made several mistakes that were
costly to the republican party. and the
stockholders of the paper, which has
been losing money ever since the last
campaign, at the annual election, two
weeks ago, kicked upa row over Hal
stead's management of the paper. The
result was the board of directors
politely told Mr.. Halstead that if he
was anxious to go to New York he could
do SO. He went TO the big city where
he now resides, and the only thing
heard from him is a column of matter
that appears in the paper every day.
The managing editor is Richard Smith,
but the real man is a. Howard Hinkle,
who in the future viii dictate the policy
Of the paper.

but the final declaration of thh policy

thought that the masters would give in,
This supPosit!on, erroneous as it proved
TO be, was based ON the fact that a few
more of the lesser contractors had
granted tho demand and asked that
their men be sent back to work. These
men who have given in, however, are
rot members of the Master Plumbers

at all they must come on exactly the old
terms.

Before this strike some of the best
plumbers were making and receiving 81

come down to the average Just for the
sake of bringing the others up Some
of the bosses ARE charging Sc a day for

that the men who Go this work should
get at least S3.75 out of the amount.
Four years ago there weie 800 plumbers

the bosses have reduced the wages so
much that there are not more than

Greeley homestead, built by Horace
Greeley in 1851, was destroyed by fire
this morning Since Mr.. Greeley's

Miss Gabrielle Greeley, his only sur
viving child. Miss Greeley was in
Pleasantville attending church at the
time. The fire made rapid progress,
and the servants we're compelled to
leave tho house without saving much
property. 1t is believed $4,000 will
cover the loss.
