VIII Shut Or Credit.

QUINCY, Mass, Aug. 3O.-An arrange
ment.went into effect yesterday by which
the terms of credit to the locked-out
granite cutters will be limited to thirty
days by all members OF the Quincy Grocer's
association. The movement has frequent
ly been urged by the granite manufacture
ers who are now satisfied that the men
will be speedily starved into subsection.
AS the grocers are dependent upon the
workingmen for support and the working
men are strongly united through the CEN
tral labor union, it is:.not improbable that
the union may establish cooperative
stores.

A Strict Watch Necessary.
Health Officer Jenkins said he would
continue the quarantine regulations rs at
present enforced for at least year and
perhaps for. two years. "Even if cholera
does not come to this country soon," he
said, "it will be necessary to keep strict
watch. If it keeps away for months there
may be a relaxation of vigilance in other
ports, both in this country and abroad,
which will render it all the more ne cessary
to be vigilant here. In any case, l don't
think we should consider ourselves safe
for at least two years"

physicians were unable to determine

severe attack of cholera morbus-but to

for typhus patients. He will be kept
there until the nature of his affliction is
accurately known.

BUFFALO, Aug S0.-The troops have all
been withdrawn and their places been
taken by a comparatively small force of
deputy sheriffs and police at those
points in the railway yards where
trouble is most likely to occur. Five men
were arrested yesterday for interfering
with switchmen at work, and some stone
throwing is reported. This causes the
men at work TO be always on the qui vive
and many are reluctant to stay at work.

"A Modern Instance.
FROM JUDGE ENocH KIGHT.

Los ANGELES, Cal, July 80, 1892.
My Dear Mr.. Lewis My disappointment at
not going east this summer has its sharpest pang
in the realization that l must miss the Frye
burg Academy Centennial. Notonly did have
familiar knowledge of the old school from the
earliest period of my remembrance but ever
since my first connection with it, precisely forty
years ago, when its sessions were held Tin
the old vestry,I have kept a fond outlook upon
it. But Fryeburg is dearer to me than merely
the old school associations. 1t was the home OF
all my race. and especially now that | have no
longer an abiding place in all the east does the
home Of my people seem more , nearly my own Na
home than ever before recall the the, peace ana ana
blessed old household, where was earnestness
and providence and thrift, and where old
home-bred virtues hold their not un-honored
place." and they seem like shrines and
alterfames whittier it were sweet and saving
for all us wanderers to turn fol. inspiration and
help, even like the young prophet who called
to service with new king in the new land
kept his windows ever open towards Jerusalem.
Yours in the old faith,

den resulted in Is soldiers and IS guards
surrendering to tho miners without fir
ing a shot. The miners at once ran the
convicts to the railroad, loaded them on
the train with guards and started
them for Knoxville. The guards were
sore over it. They say they were
talked into surrendering to few men
whom they could have held at bay until
reinforcements came. At last advices 65
men who went from here are still at Har-

have gone in the direction of Coal Creek

An enthusiast on the subject states
that each head of clover is composed
of about sixty distinct flower tubes,
and each of these contains sugar not
to exceed the five hundredth part of
a grain. The proboscis of the honey
bee must therefore be inserted into
500 clover tubes before one grain of
sugar can be obtained. There are
1000 grains in pound, and as honey
contains three.fourths of its weight
of dry sugar, each pound of clover
honey would represent the insertion
of the proboscis into 100000 clover
heads.

GOULD BUYING AT PUEBLO.

From an authentic source it was
learned that the survey and right of
way privileges of the Pueblo, Gun
nison & Pacific railway have been
transferred to the Missouri Pacific
railway company. This proposed
route was surveyed and its feasibility
demonstrated by a local company,
which has laid the proposition before
Mr.. Jay Gould,with the result stated.
Nothing definite is known publicly
as to what the Missouri Pacific will
do this year with the proposed line.
While Mr.. George Gould was in Pu-
eblo to visit his father he visited the
Bessemer Steel works and some of
the coal lands owned by that compa-
ny.
Appraisers are now at work upon
the coal lands of the Colorado Fuel
company and the Colorado Iron COM
pany, and upon their report the con-
solidation of these two companies will
be effected and Mr.. George Gould
will come into control Of the consol-
idated concern. Such a combination
will have no trouble in controlling
