some or Won Mo,tke.. Wars.

The seven weeks war between
Prussia and Austria was planned by
Moltke, and the operations which cul-
minated at Kpniggratz were his. Tho
movements of three army corps, which
were to converge,at u given time upon
the enemy and crush him, were all
directed by this master mind. But
his brain was versatile as well as far
seeing. On the very eve of the battlc
dispatches were received which COM
PEELED radical changes in the plans.
but Moltke was not embarrassed in
the least by the event, as this posi-.
bility had heen foreseen by him.
When the battle was raging, when
the non-arrival OF the Crown Prince
seemed liable to Illustrate the
Prussian combinations and the
King and Bismarck were becoming
nervous, the Chief of Staff was cool
and free from anxiety. At this SUI
preme moment Bismarck offered
Moltke cigar, which he carefully
selected from a number of others.
Bismarck has since said, when /
saw that he was cool enough to choose
n cigar felt cOmforted and assured
that things could not be going wrong
with US after ALL" In few moments
the expected army corps was seen ap-
preaching, the united Prussian armies
closed in crushing grip upon the
Austrians, and the battle of Epnig-
gratz was won. For this campaign
Moltke was decorated, and received n
donation of 200. 600 thalers.
From 1866 to 1870 Moltke was pre-
pairing for the war with France,
which had become inevitable. When
the bolt fell in 1870 no man was prob
ably less moved than he. Nothin :
more wonderful than the swift mobil!-
zation of the German armies in 1870
has ever been seen, unless it be the
skill and persistence with which the
march through France was conducted,
and the successive victories at Sedan,
Metz and Paris were achieved.
Moltke conducted or. designed all
these operations. Neither the extent
of the field occupied. the magnitude
and wide distribution of the forces
engaged. nor the plans of the enemy,
could confuse or EN- barass him. With
his maps and colored pins he followed
the march of the troops. decided on
points to be occupied. grasped the in
tentions of the enemy, and nine times
out of ten carrie d out his purposes
triumphantly despite all obstacles.
For his services in this war he was
made Count and General Field-Mar-
shall. His constitution was of iron.
| Throughout the war with France he
worked necessarily. taking little sleep
and no diversion. but he returned TO
Berlin with health unbroken. All
| the old German cities conferred hon
orary citizenship upon him, and he
was given large donation. After
the war he settled down to routine
life, spending part of his time on his
estate at Kreislu, attending to his
army duties, and occupying his seat in
the Reichstag, of which body he was
made life member.

The General showed HI. order..

Baron kruedner, the well-llnown
Russian General, who was defeat d
by Osman Pacha at Plevna, died Ie-
Gently in Russia at the age of 81 years.
Kruedner, say Russian papers, was
Commander of the Ninth Army Corps
Grand Duke Nicholas, Comm tuder-
in-Chief Of the forces, ordered him to
take Plevna by storm. Kruedner,
however, paid no attention to the
command of his superior, as he was
certain that his forces were too weak
to cope with those OF the enemy. A
second time the Grand Duke gave the
command for Kruedner to begin the
attack. The General told the
courier, however, to say TO His
I'm perial Highness that he
would not take responsibility Of
stormiug Pievna without written or
der from the Grand Duke. The writ
ten order came, and Kruedner at once
began the attack. As was expected,
he suffered an ignominious defeat
Shortly after the battle, Kruedner
met the Gar. Alexander II. What
hast thou done with my soldiersan
cried the Emperor. Give them back
TO me- Without utteripg word in
reply, Kruedner drew from his pocket
the written order of the Grand Duke
and handed 1t to His Majesty. The
Gar read it. bowed to Kruedner aud
excused him without Saying IA word.

The farmers of the country realize
to-day that it is useless 10 raise big
crops unless they have their share of
legislative representatives to see that
laws protecting their interests are en-
acted. 1t is not a fact that failure of
crops, or poor crops is the cause of
hard times; for Kansas farmers raise
corn TO burn and yet remain hard
pressed. The people do not believe in
those days that ''over-productiou" or
big crops necessarily makes hard times
and that failure in crops produces
the same result. The masses have
taken the hint, and are not to be hood
winked along thnt line any longer.
They see that this deplorable condi-
iion OF affairs was brought about by
iniquitous legislation, which distributes
the burdens unequatly. They must
turn their attention to politics and
shape Legislation so they may be en-
abled To sec and enjoy the fruits OF
their labor
We wish to suggest, however that
congress and the legislature have both
adjourned. and rs there IS time for a
little thought on other subjects. Il

Quality of ra,tnrn.

Very early pasture is only good as
its roots get light and warmth near the
surface. Clover Is deep rooted, and its
quality does not improve until about
the time it gets into blossom. Early
in the season cows will gnaw June
grass down TO the ground, rather than
touch the clover that may be five or
six inches high, and apparently good
bite. Analysis Of the clover Mt this
period shows that the cows instinct is
right. After summer droughts come
on. timothy and June grass grow
poorer; they become dry and woody.
while the clover improves all through
the season. The second growth Of
clover makes richer better hay than
the first though owing to fall rains it
is sometimes hard to cure 1t in good
condition.

COLUMBUS, Ind May I2.-For some
time past the freight trains on the Louis
vile division OF the Pennsylvania lines
have been used by tram s between Indian
apohs and Louisville, greatly to the an
noyance of train men. Early this morn
ing as No. 3, north bound, reached this
city. a brakeman observed seven tramps
standing zeal a box car on a side track
and noticed them enter a stock car. With
a club he went to the car and drove the
entire party out. They scattered along
the track and climbed upon the cars.
The brakeman secured help and drove
them away again. Presently they rallied
and stampeded the train crew, throwing
stones at the two brakemen. A moment
later there was a pistol shot and a man
fell upon the platform. He was taken to
the city hospital, where he now is In a
dying condition, the ball striking him on
the chin and ranging downward into his
throat. His name is John Easton. and he
is a shi~p-carpenter by occupation and
English by birth. At Franklin, twenty
miles north of this city. five of the tramps
who had rode to that place, when the
train stopped attacked the two brakemen
with knives, inficting wounds upon A.
Yates that will probably pove fatal. j..
Gore, the other brakeman, escaped with
two scalp wounds. But for the assistance
of officers the train could not have been
moved.
