Mother Goose.

Mother Goose was a real character, and was not an imaginary parsonage, IS we used to suppose. Her maiden name was Elizabeth Foster, and she was born in 1865. She married Isaac Goose in 1893, and few years after ward became a member of the Old South church. She died in 1757, aged ninety-two years. The first edition of her songs was published in Boston G716) by her son-in-law, Thomas Fleet. The house in which great part of her life was spent was a low, one-story building with dormer windows and a red tiled roof, looking something like an old English country cottage.

THE AGRICULTURAL EXHIBIT.

Secretary Rusk of the government
department of agriculture, is preparing
what is certain to be pronounced a
marvellous agricultural exhibit at the
Worlds Fair. 1t will he at once strik-
ing demonstration of the broad scope
and efficient work of the department
of which he is the head, and school
of instruction for all who are interested
in agricultural matters. 1t will include
full illustrations of various in sect depre-
dators, mammoth globe representing
graphically the history of pleuro-
pneumonia and its remarkable ex-
termination In America; model of
the famous Death Valley, with its
strange fauna and fora and a working
set of modern weather stations out
fit. Under the immediate supervision
of Expert Hubbard the most complete
and comprehensive collection of grains
ever made is being prepared, with
the cooperation of the farmers in this
country and in foreign parts. Samples
of wheat grown in every county in the
United States will be shown. Grains
from Peace river in northern Canada,
to Patagonia, from Russia to India, will
be i'll collection; every seed collected by
hand and the varieties arranged in taste
full glass compartments with labels in
dicating the name, place, weight and
effects of the soil and climatic conditions.
There arc now collected 1900 samples of
wheat, 1000 of oats, 5000 of rye, 5000
of barley, 300 of buckwheat, 1900 of
of corn besides the exhibit of corn in the
earl and proportionate numbers of the
various other grains and garden products.
An effort is being made to secure from
Egypt one of the original father wheat

The disasters by the recent floods in
Mississippi and Alabama appear, from
later reports, 10 have been more wide
spread and fatal than at first represented
Scores Of lives were lost and hundreds of
poor colored people lost their all, which
consisted of few fowls and domestic
animals, some of them, and handful of
chattles. Added to this immediate loss
their humble abodes were swept away,
thus leaving them in large numbers
utterly destitute with no place of pro-
lection from the weather. The war de-
partment of the government has ordered
to be sent into the flooded district all the
available tents not in use, for the use of
the homeless and distressed settlers. This
will afford them partial relief, but this
only temporarily, and there is almost
sure to be considerable suffering. The
poor creatures have no money and moth
ing with which to procure necessary
supplies, nor can they get away to where
they can be supplied, for they have no
means of getting away. Their condition
is indeed pitiable.

The state of siege proclaimed for the
Argentine Republic, ostensibly as a
measure of defense against conspirators
opposed to the existing government, was
suspended for the election throughout
that country which took place Monday.
The fact denotes a measure of respect
for the ballot which is significant of the
evolution of republican ideas in the vast
confederation; yet if the state of siege
may safely be suspended on election
day, outsiders at a distance will be
puzzled to understand what urgency for
its maintenance could exist at less
critical time.
