Result OF The Hard Times.

The striDgency in the money market
and the general financial depression
which is efecting the farmers directly
and through them the railroads and otn-
er businesses, is at last striking at the
head centre of all.
Several times already in mentioning
the bad condition of the railroads, the
fact that the purchase of fertilizers by the
farmers had absolutely ceased had been
referred to.
Last night a well-known phosphate
man, just from the mines, said that near
ly all the large land mining companies
had suspended operations in..this State,
and only those which had Italian miners
employed under contract for specified
time we're still at work. These compa-
MES, be says, have pro6ted by last years
losses, and have decided to reduce the
supply until the demand is equal to it.
One company that mined 10000 tons last
year has taken out but $4,000 this year,
and can find market for only one third
of it. He regards the outlook as very
discouraging, :. Columbia State, February l.

She Did not Sleep There.

Senator Squire recently played sour
W trick on Senator John B. Allen. They
we're travelling from Washington. When
they want to secure sleeping berths there
were only two to be had-one upper and
one lower. The two Senators "tossed up"
for choice and Senator Allen won, TAX
ing the lower berth, of course. During
the night the train stopped at station
in Missouri, where large, heavy woman
entered the sleeper looking for a berth.
Squire yoked his head out between the
curtain, and, seeing the ponderous lady,
said:
"Madam, the berths are ali taken, but
if you wish you can occupy the one just
under me, where my little boy is sleep
ing"
This was satisfactory to the Missouri
amazon, who removed her shoes and then
swung around into the bunk. Just about
this time the disturbed occupant
attempted to rise to see what the intru-
sion meant.
With one fell swoop Of her palm she
clapped it squarely over the gentleman's
mouth, saying: "There, little boy, don't
speak. Your father said l could sleep
here"
Again the little boy attempted to rise,
and this tine he managed to say:
MADAM, I want to tell you that I'm
no boy"
"Who are you, then ?"
"I'm Senator Allen, from the State OF
Washington ?"
"My conscience !" she yelled, and
sprang up and dashed out of the car, ex'
claiming, to the CONSERVATION OF every
one but Squire, "Oh, what would Hiram
say if be knew!"

Mr.. >EDiToR: We, as school girls,
take great pleasure in answering your
questions: The cause of the war of 1872
was that several years before it begun
France, beaded by the great Napoleon,
was at war with England. The United
States said they would be neutral and
would not side with either nation, but
Napoleon would not have American
ships trade with the British. England,
also, was not willing to have American
ships trade with the French. Napoleon
made an order closing British ports
to American vessels, and England did
the same with regard to the French
ports. England pretended that
American vessels were not obeyiug this
order, and so British men of war begun
capturing them. Hundreds of American
ships we're thus taken. Besides this,
England said that she had a right to
search American vessels to see if they
had on board of them any sailors belong
ing to Great Britain. On this pretence
our ships were searched and many seamen
were taken from them and forced to
serve in the British navy. In some
cases the sailors taken had been natural
lied in this country, others were Ameri-
can born citizens. The English naval
officers behaved in very insolent way
At last the American Government would
not put up with this high handed con-
duct any lcDger, and in 1872 declared
war against England. James Madison
the fourth in the list, was then President
We are in the same class and like to
study Geography the best of any study
We have, because we like 10 study of all
human races and their habits, and oi
other climates as well as our own.

swer to your question of last week l send
as follows: Cause of war of 1872 was-
l. England claimed the right of stopping
American vessels on the seas to search
for sesmen of English birth, and press
them into the British navy. 2. The
British emmissaries aroused the Indians
against the Americans. The impressment
of our seamen and the capture Of our
ships continued. The British refused to

Concluded Without Ceremony.

A good story is related of the Hon. B.
Lawless, a former member of the Louis
Vile bar, and who came to this city from
Glaskow, KY, says the Chicago Press.
He was long winded talker, and when
he arose to make an argument he didn't
know when to stop. On one occasion he
was making speech before Judge Bal
lard, in the United States Court. He had
spoken several hours, and the judge and
everybody else were thoroughly tired
out, though they we're helpless. At last
Judge Ballard beckoned his brother,
Jack Ballard to him, and implored him
to stop Lawless if he could.
"Oh, that's easy enough" replied the
brother. "I'll stop him inside of three
minutes"
There was great deal of curiosity to
see how this could be accomplished, as
the orator seemed to be nowhere near the
end of his speech. Jack Ballard
took pencil and sheet of paper and
wrote:
"My Dear Colonel As soon as you
finish your magnificent argument | would
like you to join me in the clerks Office
in bumper of fine old bourbon"
The note was handed to the orator,
who paused at the end of soaring pc.
+ riod, drew his glasses from his pocket
and read the note. He put it in his
pocket and said:
"And, now, if it please your honor,
and gentlemen of the jury, leave the
case with you"
He picked up his hat and was in the
clerks Office in about minute.

along railroads were crowded with peo.

Trains were not loaded with com
merce; they hurried troops to the front
and brought the wounded away. Car
boxes were hacked into holes and split in
splinters to let the air in to the men who
were crowded like cattle into the tight

bridges were down, tracks were danger

People buried their jewels in the
