The Telegraph's" Staff Make freseh-
tation to Mr. Durie and Col. Egan.

LAST night about O'Clock Mr.. d. T. Durle was
called into the local department OF the seattle
telegraph. 10 settle some point in the aHalFs OF
the department, as he faneed, when ne was con-
fronted by body OF determined young men,
with Colonel John g. Egan at their head
With Characteristic eloquence, the gallant COZ
onel, on behalf of the local staff, presenter Mr..
Durie with a golden loeket, set IN small dla-
monds, on the inside corner of which was en-
graved: with best wishes, from the local stan
of the Seattle telegraph"
The testimonial was SO unexpected that 1or
moment Mr. Durie was speeches., but recover
ing himself he expressed IN eloquent ana appro-
pirate terms his appreciation OF the delicate
compliment, and assured the young men OF MS
permanent and abiding interest III their future
welfare
Fate had in store q quick revenge upon Col
onel Egan for his part in the pleasantly perpe-
tratad upon Mr.. Durie. The rifle OF excitement
had scarcely subsidized when Mr.. Ricord, who
succeeds Colonel Egan as city editor OF the TEE
graph drew a similar locket on Colonel Egan,
and N a neat speech presented the gilt 10 him,
as expression OF the warm regard with which
his associates on the paper have always and DO
still regard MIN. Colone. Egan expressed great
concern over this mark OF respect, and gave vent
to his gratitude with words prompted only by
deep feeling. The episode was thoroughly en-
j0yed by al the parties concerned.

CANE SUGAR.

In regard to domestic sugars, a
report issued by the International
Revenue Bureau, gives the facts. At
least $9,549,375 will be paid as
bounties on cane sugar. Nearly all
of that amount, goes into the state
of Louisiana, and of that $780,
900 goes into Il parishes, to be
divided among $50 sugar planters,
an average of $4,000 each. 1t is
said an acre Of ground planted in
sugar-cane on average years pro-
duces $500 pounds sugar, valued a t
SIP without bounty. Fifty thou
sand dollars is only a reasonable re-
Enumeration to any man who has to
suffer the excruciating JOY of pro-
curing a bond for a sugar license.
The questions incident to the opera
ton would make a census enumera-
tor gasp.

etc, American Dairyman makes
some sensible remarks After show
ing that in many cases promis-
ing colts became inferior horses,
through ignorant training, it con-
tinues thus:
Too many men do not seem to
understand that three year old
colt cannot endure anything like as
long and hold strain as a nine year
old horse. If the colt wants to go
fast they let him go. If he does not
want to go they crowd him. And in
farm work the same spirit often APP
pears. The colt is worked too hard
and too long. Not infrequently he
is harnessed with a strong and
mature horse and is required to keep
his end up in all places and for long
periods. The hard and long-con-
tinued strain of such driving and
working must have an injurious in
huence upon the animal. If owners
would keep this fact in mind they
would save themselves many disap-
pointments, and would keep many
naturally fine animals from being
brought down to the ordinary or in
ferior classes. The man who tries to
get the speed or the work of a
mature horse from colt is doing
something which will certainly re-
duce the efficiency and value of his
animal and bring disappointment
and loss to himself.
