AGRLCZL TIRE.

While this is a timber country it must
not be supposed that agriculture is ne
elected; on the contrary, along the rivers
and streams many good farms have been
cleared off that produce the finest vege-
tables in the world, grass in immense
quantities and most excellent fruit Many
varieties of apples, pears, plums, prunes,
cherries and small fruits are grown III
profusion and great perfection.
The best grain crop in this section il
oats, after which wheat, rye, and barley
Corn does not do well, nor any crop re-
quiring hot days and nights, as these we
do not have. Beside the home market,
we have all the world easy of access, but
the home demand is SO great for all the
products of the country that there is at
present no need Of shipping abroad.
For dairying there is no country on
earth superior to this With abundance
of pure water, no hot weather and unex-
celled pasturage, there is at present every
condition for successful and profitable
dairying.

His Wife Produces Them in Court by Or
der of the Chancellor.
A handsome woman with three pretty
little girls attracted considerable atten-
tod in the Court of Chancery yes
terday. They were Mrs. Maria G
Kukuck, and the children were
her daughters. The mother had
brought the children to Court

In 1889, Mr.. kukuck begun n suit
against his wife in New York city for
divorce. naming Albert Mitchell
as correspondent. H, secured the
divorce and was awarded the custody az
his children, but When he tried to secure
possession of them, he found that his
wife had taken them and left for parts
unknown.
The father lost all trace of them until
recently. when he fonnd that they were
living in HoboKen. He Their secured the
writ commanding the mother to
produce the children in Jul IL show
why she retained possession of them con-
trary to the final decree of the New York
courts.
Mrs. Kukuck, in her own behalf. de-
clared that she had never seen the de-
cree giving her husband the custody of
the children and she wanted the matter
adorned. The Chancellor let the case go
over upon bonds being given that she
would produce the children on the day
named.

costing a little over a million dollars.
The talk soon died out and nothing
more was said of it until a few days ago,
when a gang of surveyors began surveying
the property on Cedar street. When
Questioned the surveyors refused to say
anything about the matter.
1t is remarked That the railroad
employs body or men who
are continually doing something,
yet who do not know what they
are doing. That the railroad will begin
operations in a few weeks is certain. how
ever. Mr.. Pfeffer of Cedar street. whose
residence is on the line of the railroad,
has been notified to remove his house.
The railroad authorities refuse to say
what they intend to do in this section.
In answer to inquiries they simply say,

Elkins and Harrison.

The Philadelphia Press, which is
a representative Republican news
paper, says that the appointment of
Steve Elkins as Secretary OF War is
generally satisfactory" This must
be understood, of course, as applying
to the Republican party-the good
old party, the grand old party of
fraud, huinbug, trickery, corruption
and theft, for no other party could
possibly be satisfied to see a man of
the political reputation OF Stephen Is.
Elkins acting as Secretary of War.
The ~intimation of the Press that the
appointment of Elkins sis in some

nomination. was not necessary.

absurd Presidential Talk.

The Sun quotes Senator Vest as
saying that ex-President Cleveland's
personal influence had waned, and
ssthe hands of Hill and German were
so strong within the party that one of
them must perforce be the stronger
candidate before the Democratic Con-
vention."
We assume Senator Vest said all
this. The Sun has gone very far in
its hatred of Cleveland, but it has
hardly got down to taking interviews.
II Mr.. Vest said it, however, it is hard
TO credit him with any honesty
or sincerity. II the remark had
been confined to Hill, the case
might be different; but Vest must
know very well that the cleo
ton of Senator German would be
an impossibility. Any republican
who might be named would beat him
in every State north of Mason and
Dixon's line, except perhaps New
Jersey.
What does Senator Vest mean by
saying Senator German would be
strong before the Conventions How
can any candidate be strong, whose
ultimate defeat is a foregone conclu-
sion?

trict. Mr.. Dallas is u Democrat, and

named. 1t pronounces the Presi-
dents action ''untimely and ill-ad-

cause the supply of Federal pap will
so soon be cut off from the faithful;
ill-advised because it will sour all the
would-be and make it harder for
General Sewell to whip them into
line at Minneapolis.
We find it hard to understand, our
selves, how Nj. Harrison came to do
anything SO honest. To be sure he
filled four out of the six new Judge
ships with Republicans, but still there
is an effort at non-partisan dealing
which is strange in a mar like Harri-
ION. The only thing we can think of
is that it is an effort to delude the pub

pretence of fair play.
