CORN BREAD ABROAD.

Minister Phelps seems to have done
the proper thing when he gave his
corn bread dinner to officials and no.
tables at the German capital. These
people were much delighted with the
various dishes made from corn meal,
and the new dishes are now all the
rage in high places, and being thus
in fashion is followed everywhere by
the middle classes. 1t is reported
that in many Of the large cities the
bakeries are oyerrun with orders for
the new food. When we take into
consideration the fact that Europe
ans have always looked eoldly upon
corn in every shape, the success fol-
lowing Minister Phelps introduction
is something remarkable. But there
is good deal, in fact all, in its man
ner Of introduction. Never before
has it been attempted through diplo-
matte circles and hence had the
weight of fashion in its favor.
That it viii prove boon to the
German people there can be no doubt.
1t viii give them q cheap food and
at the same time d healthy one, and
in the face Of short crops. a way out Of
suffering from d scarcity of food is
opened Up,
II the meantime the American
farmer can look upon the new fashion
with considerable satisfaction. Its
spread means a great deal to him. 1t
gives him an entirely new market for
an important product Of the farm,
and ought in time to have an impor-
tant influence upon its price.
A few days ago, Chief Yates re-
ceived a telegram to arrest certain
runaway couple from Window. 1t
now turns out that the couple were
married, and returned to their home
as Mr.. and Mrs. J. w. Jenness. 1t
was their intention TO have remained.
but they learned that they were
to be arrested, or even meet with
a still warmer reception, and thought
safety required absence. The parents
desire the newspapers to say that nc
legal steps will be taken, and if the
romantic couple viii quickly return
they will be received with open arms
and viii relieve some aching hearts.

A Passing Relic Of Barbarism.
Washington Post.l

Kentucky, the last refuge If the duel in
America has discredited and will outlaw that
barbarous institution. The Constitutional
Convention now sitting recommends this as a
part Of kentucky's new Constitution.
Any person being a citizen Of this state
who shall. after the adoption Of this Constitu-
ton. either directly or indirectly. give, nc
cept. OF knowingly carry a challenge 20 any
person 10 fight in single combat with any
deadly weapon with q citizen OF this state.
either in OF out Of the State, shall be deprived
of the right TO hold any Office Of honor or
profit in this Commonwealth, and shall be
punished otherwise in such manner as the
General Assembly may prescribe by law.
The recommendation was not made without
opposition. one vigorous defender of the duel
describing it asst the cornerstone of our civil
lization." without which we could not have
emerged from the dark ages"
Happily, the enlightened spirit Of Kentucky,
as of mankind, repudiates such civilized bar
barism.
The incident is Q distinct triumph, as it is
largely the result Of the yalorous and incessant
warfare on the duel by the gifted editor Of
the Courier-Journal. For quarter Of u CEN
fury Mr. Watterson has preached civilization
as against the barbarity Of the code In his
signal triumph there is cause for general
graduation.
Kentucky has done itself proud. 1t has
shown itself worthy Of one Of its greatest
citizens

The Marble Industry.
Iphfladelphia Iedger.l

A special census office report on the marble
ouarrying industry of the United States
gives some interesting facts and figures
in relation thereto. As building stone
is found almost everywhere II Is not generally
recognized or known that quarries Of good
marble are relatively scarce. Thus it hap
pens that marble il obtained from only twelve
States. and Of these Vermont has yielded
moro in value than all the others together.
The values given in the report are what the
quarrymen or producers receive for the stone.
whether rough OF finished. and they are not
as great as one would expect. the total
value Of the marble product in the United
States for the year 1899 being only
So 4s3. 10. By the time this marble has reach
ed the consumer in a finished form. however.
its value has been greatly multiplied by
freight charges and the cost Of finishing. Ot
this product Vermont furnishes p l69,j50, or
about two-thirds of the whole amount: Ten
nessee. :4l9. 467: New York. 1854 1877: Georgia
sl96. $50: Maryland @l39,sl6; California, Ss7,-
08O. and other States and Territories Sl2l, $50.
The superiority Of Vermont marble Is indl-
Gated by the fact that. although New York
produced rather more cubic feet Of marble
than Vermont. the value of the latter's product
was more than six times as great. A part this
difference is due t. quality and part % the
greater amount Of work put upon the stone by
the Vermont quarrymen before 1t Is sold.

NmrmoHY OF GENERAL JOHNSTON.

Every Confederate veteran in the United
States will most heartily endorse the move
ment lust inaugurated by the Confederates
in Washington for raising monument TO the
late General Joseph T.. Johnston. IL VIII be
remembered that soon after General Lees
death. steps were taken which resulted in the
organization of the Lee Monument Associa-
ton. through whose labors the magnificent
statue 10 that peerless OF men and military
chieftains, now standing at the head of Frank
lin street was reared. No doubt similar
organization can easily be formed to raise
funds for a statue to General Johnston, and
that their efforts in that direction will be met
with hearty and ready response.
Prompt steps in this direction are all the
more appropriate because of the entire alb
sence of all demonstration at the funeral Of
the distinguished dead. Whether this was due
10 General Johnston's own wishes. or that
those who had charge of the obsequies thought
it;might be "impolitic" 10 permit anything
like an imposing pageant, has not yet been
stated. Only one thing is known, and that is
that one of the central figures in the
war between the States, and one OF
the most conspicuous Of the Southern
leaders was permitted 10 die and be
laid in his grave with scarcely an expression
of sorrow over his loss. and certainly none
commensurate with the exalted position he
had held. II is. therefore, not only appropri-
ate. but the duty Of the ex-Confederates and
Of the Southern people 10 hold memorial
meetings and pass appropriate resolutions OF
respect 10 the dead soldier. This course of
action was suggested by THE TINES the day
after General Johnstons funeral, and we are
glad to see that it has been 50 spontaneously
taken up both by the press and the veterans.
The North can vote away hundreds OF mil
lions Of dollars year in the way OF pensions
TO her ex-solders and leaders. The South can
do little besides expressions Of love and admira-
ton TO those who gave their lives and talents
10 her defense. BY all means let these be shown
towards General Johnston in a manner so I'M
mistakable that the world may see that even
If the South is unable 10 pension her heroes,
she at least is not behind the North in appre-
citation Of their splendid services IN her be-
half. Let there. then. be held throughout this
section memorial meetings, which will impress
tho name and fame Of General Johnston upon
our children and children's children for gene
ratons yet unborn. And let, at the same time,
steps be taken for the erection Of n monument
worthy of the man. which. like that 10 Lee,
will be a work of beauty and mute evidence
for all time of the reverence and esteem in
which the Southern heroes of the war are
| held by the Southern people.
