No PRESIDENT has ever been more
highly regarded in military circles than
Mr.. Cleveland and officers of the army
and navy who are non-part,san will vel
come his return to the Office. The Army
and Navy Journal thus mmen on
the result of the election: "Groyer
Cleveland, who on the fourth Of next
March assumes for the second time the
office of president of the United States,
is no stranger to the army and navy or
to the country, Alone of all men IN our
history he has thrice received the honor
of a nomination to the presidency, and
he will enter for q second time upon the
discharge of this high office with the
cordial confidence and good will of the
great majority of his countrymen. The
very general belief in his executive abil.
ity, his independence OF character, his
high conception of the responsibilities
OF public office, and his patriotic zeal in
the service of his country, have been i'm
portant factors in carrying the demo.

cratic party on the high tide OF victory
to the goal it has struggled toward
through a long career Of disappointment
or but partial success. II Mr.. Cleveland
ave us a good administration in 1868
there is every reason to hope for an even
better one during the four years to
come. lie is still in the prime OF life;
his experience has been enlarged by the
responsibilities of executive administra-
ton and his mind broadened by a very
exceptional intercourse during the past
eight years with the ablest representa-
tives of public opinion and by a close
study Of our national necessities"

NOT A WESTERN POLICY,

The action Of the trustees of Chicago
university in excluding Greek letter So
cleties from its environments seems to
us a mistake, though it cannot be
termed an innovation. Princeton uni
versity, under the administration of DR..
McCook, barred the secret fraternities
many years ago and there are still sew
eral small and unknown colleges with
narrow religious prejudices which have
followed the same course. Princeton,
however, IS the only one of prominence.
College ~fraternities work untold bene-
fits to both college and individual. They
breed friendships, they sustain loyalty
to the institution, they give that atmos-
phere which breathes life to an associa-
ton, and, indeed, what else is q college
but an association of men. The secrecy
signifies nothing harmful, but is a sem
timent necessary as a cohesive element.
We venture to say that out of the thous-
ands of fraternity men in this country
the proportion of those who have re-
signed would not ratio one to 1000.
Moreover. it is owing largely to the
attachments of fraternity life that COL
leges have received their greatest finan-
cial assistance. The average fraternity
alumnus goes first to his chapter home
at commencement and then to the col
lege. He returns to meet his best
friends and he finds them in his frater-
nifty.
President White, of Cornell u%niver-
slty, one of the broad minded educa-
tors in this country, is a prominent
member of the Sigma Phi fraternity.
One of the first acts of his administra-
ton was the offer OF a lot on the campus
to every fraternity for a building. The
result is found in a dozen or more beau
tiful homes built by contributions and
furnishing accommodations to the boys
fortunate enough to belong to the diff
ferent fraternities. 1t was part of the
wise policy that has made Cornell SO
strong among liberal institutions.
The trustees of Chicago university
should do likewise. A policy Of exclu-
sion is positively injurious to the insti-
tuition and savors too much of Salem
P~uritanism, an element to be decidedly
avoided in the broad horlzoned west.

to-day going into NOR mining camps than any other mill. It's
simplicity, cheapness, high saving powers o n base cores fills a long
needed want, and hundreds OF low grade base mines heretofore

1t VIII Drive q Kitten Mad and Charm

Street peddlers have a new catch
penny device on their trucks that is
quite an amusing thing for old Us we'll
as young folks, says the New York
Herald. They call it the crazy ball"
and it is we'll named. For ten cents
you can buy one of these things, and
see the laws of gravity dcfed. It
looks like an ordinary wooden bali,
about the size of a tennis ball, but you
can't roll it in a straight line to save
you. Of course, the secret of the things
queer actions lies in the fact that it is
loaded on one side. This makes every
movement of the ball eccentric 1t
will roll up hill of it's own accord, and
it will refuse to roll down hill. If you
try to roll it from you it will perhaps
start out all right and then turn around
and roll back, and maybe it will go off
sidewise and describe a wobbly circle
around you. All it's movements are
jerky and spasmodic. Give it to kit
ten to play with, and the chances are
that the kitten will go mad, while the
baby will cry with veXation over its &c
centric;ties. A grown person who is
not up in spherical geometry will as
sure you that it is wonderful. 1t is not.
1t is only some sharp fellows way of
gathering in the dimes. Nevertheless,
ere long the city will be flooded with

perfect fort in miniature, and instead
of a bell and striking hammer the
hours are announced by a bugler, who
energies from door at one side of the
fort and blows the call to assemble and
march Almost instantly doors open
on all sides and regiment of auto
matte soldiers, six abreast, march out,
wheel to the left, stop few seconds to
mark time and then march through
another part Of the fortress to the bar
racks. These marches and counter
marches occur each hour. II they come
out to announce the hour of one o'clock
one soldier fires his tiny gun, at two
o'clock two soldiers fire their pieces,
increasing with the hour until the
twelve leaders fire their guns, the rear
ranks bowling their heads and pointing
with their bayonets toward the dial of

They were large enough TO yield sd

he figures in TINS way: Ii be hao
q thousand trees it would cost him

labor at 81 per day, or $40 st -
per dag. He has hut few culls a.
mnng his apples, and the select i
crop will easily bring him ten cents
per buskel more than the fruit from

which at six bushels to the tree
would increase hls sales by $500.
Az gain be claims still another great
advantage. 1t is not the growth u
the fruit that exhausts the tree 80
much as the formation of the set d,
and by reducing the number OF
seeds grown by picking off one-hait

he relieves the tree SO that it Can

has not had failure Of the trees to
