DUNES AND DUCHESS BREED.


me faiue oil Careful STOCK breeding
shown in the Following Interesting
Notes.
The current number of the HumaRi
tartan in discussing the subject of good
blood in cattle breeding says; A his
tory of the celebrated Dukes and
Duchess cattle. bred by Thomas Bates
of England, will show what good blood
will produce when used judiciously.
In September, 1878, Messrs. Wolcott
g. Campbell of New York Mills, near
Utica, N. ", had sale of high-bred
Duchess cattle. This sale was adver-
tised all over England and America,
and gathered together the best breeders
of cattle from England, the United
States and Canada. Amongst the cele-
brated breeders of England were Lord
Skelmersdale and r. PAWN Davis and
others, who were represented by their
agents TO purchase cows and bulls, de-
scendants from tho herd bred by Thomas
Bates of England, who was celebrated
breeder, and who had taken more pains
to breed cattle than any man in Eng
land or America. His celebrated cattle
were known by the name of the Dukes
and Duchesses; their pedigrees ran back
over 100 years to the celebrated bulls
Comet, Favorite, Daisy Bull, bred by
@. Collins; Hubback, bred by j. Hunter,
and j. Brown Red Bull, bred by j.
Thompson; Mr.. Thomas Bates valued
blood so highly that he pursued the
policy Of what is known in breeders
parlanco as "prepotency," or, in-and-in
breeding. In this was he bred up the
celebrated Dukes and Duchesses family
~ hp shaw, rxtnial, xxtau x.nl,1nh n
1873 more highly than any cattle in
England or America, as the sale at New
York Mills showed.
One Duchess COW was sold to II
PAWN Davis of England, for $40,600.
The same ccw was afterwards sold to
Robert Morris, noted breeder of cattle,
near New York city. for $4,000,
Another Duchess COW was sold to Lord
Skelmersdalc of England, for $4,000,
who shipped this Duchess COW to Eng
land, and, am credibly informed,
made large profit on his investment.
A Duchess hcifer was sold to Mr.. Alex
ander of Kentucky, for $4,000. The
Duke bull was sold for $4,000. A Mr..
Murray of Racine, Wis, purchased of
Mr.. Alexander of Kentucky, Duchess
heifer for $4,000, about the year 1870,
Mr.. Murray left this Duchess l.eifer at
Mr.. Alexander farm in Kentucky to
breed to Duke bull, until she had pro-
duced two or three heifer calves. Mr..
Murray sold this Duchess COW and her
calves to Mr.. Cochrane of Canada, for
$4,000.
Mr. Cochrane, understand, sold this
COW and her calves for over 100000.
This episode in the history of cattle
breeding, serves to show the value of
good blood, as estimated by the best
breeders of both England and America.

EMIN PASHA NOT DEAD.


lie Entirely Recovered From the Attack
OF Smallpox and is Enjoying Good
Health.
BERLIN, June ia dispatch re-
celved here to-day from Zanzibar show
the rumors TO the effect that Emin Pasha
WAS dead are untrue.
The dispatch says that Emin has
arrived at Bukoba, at which place his
companion, DIR. Stuhlman, arrived with
the greater part of the Emin expedition,
some time ago, thus carrying out the
plan originally decided upon, when it
was found that owing to the want of
provisions and the impossibilty of Oh
tanning carriers the expedition could not
proceed further into the interior.
Emin Pasha, according to the latest
advices, has entirely recovered from the
attack of smallpox that prevented his
returning TO BulSoba with DIR. Stuhl-
man. and is now said to be enjoying
good health.

A cHIN4MAN's oUEUE.
Its Loss Does Not Mean Forfeiture OF
Any Rights

Lee Hung, Chinaman en- route to
the East stopped off here to visit some
friends for few days, and while here
decided to dispense with the dress of his
native land and his hothersome queue,
says the St. Louis Globc-Democrat. A.
neat-fitting, hand-me-down suit was
purchased with few dollars, and then
the process of cutting off the pig-tail
began. The hair.cutting was done in
the rear of Laundry somewhere on
Oliver street by Lee lungs friends and
countrymen, and was very interesting
ceremony, taken altogether, and at
| iracted several neighborlng laundry
| men. The little Celestial was firm in
| his determination TO dispense with his
| superfluous hair until he saw the scis-
sors, and then he began to weaken. He
| was finally prevailed upon to sit still
| for moment and to release his hold on
the long black plat, which was neatly
coiled on the top of his head, and an in
slant later the slender, snake-like thing
was lying on the floor. Then his hair
was neatly trimmed, and in few min
utes he was told that the job was
finished. When he saw his face in the
mirror he danced for glee and contin-
ued rubbing his head with his hands.
He was mot used to Mclean mans
clothes" and his "head felt so funny"
The antics of the little Chinaman were
ludicrous in the extreme and furnished
amusement for large crowd of people
who collected to ascertain what was
going on in the laundry. Lee Hung
proceed on his way east rejoicing.
sun Yah Sue, the Chinese grocer at
Tenth and Locust streets, was asked
concerning the ceremony by Globe
Democrat reporter. He said it was very
simple and consisted only Of cutting Off
the hair, the same as should be done
with anybody else whose hair is deer..ed
| too long He had not seen the haircut
ting. but explained that sometimes
Cinnamon have the barber cut their
hair and sometimes one of their coun-
trymen does it. The popular belief
that u Chinaman forfeits his right to
burial in China when he loses his pig
tail Sun Yah Sue says is an error. In
China long hair is the custom, and only
tho priests, or Wah Yung, as they arc
called, wear their hair cropped short,
after the fashion of Christian nations.
"Only ting is" said Sun Yah Sue,
"when we go back China hair cut short
like curiosity, and everybody say, Wah
Yung." Except for the annoyance
caused by the curiosity short hair
excites among the natives when they
return to China, there is nothing to drc-
vent Cinnamon having his hair cut IL
he so elects.

MORE POLICE OFFICERS.

sioners NIondlnY EYeninr.

'fph@th mummy A1fthtuEs
At the regular meeting of the Board of
Police Commissioners, on Monday, the
ACCESSIBILITY of adding IL men to the police
force was considered. Mayor Wiley
thought the officers were needed and Com
missioner Lawson favored the addition if
the city could afford the increase. Mr..
lester moved that the increase be made, to
go into effect on July LIST. The motion was
adopted.
Mr.. Lawson expressed himself in favor
of the officers reporting all bad pavements,
SO that the Board Of Street and Sewer
Directors could be notified and have the
matter attended to. Captain Francis said
the officers were accustomed to make such
reports.
The board deprecated the action of police
officers in leaving their posts in the morn
ing before their hours of duty had ex-
PRED, to go home and get their meals, and
held that the officers had no right to leave
the beats unprotected. They resolved TO
put stop to the practice. The board also
discussed the ACCESSIBILITY of allowing the
sergeants TO remain in the police station
or TO instruct them to patrol their districts
and watch their men. 1t was decided that
the place for the sergeants was on the
street, watching their men.
