Singing Cattle to Sleep,

It is interesting to watch trained men deal with great herds of cattle which you notice on the plains Per haps there is no animal so timid as the COW. You will see numbers of them huddle themselves together by a tree or some other object whenever there is thunder and lightning. If left to themselves at night, too, they will take fright at the least sound, if it were but the flying of a sparrow. that Is, when they are not asleep.
 What the cowboys have to do, then, every night is to collect them together and drive them into their pens. Then three of them, perhaps, will ride around the ring, each following the other, and all singing. They must sing or keep up some kind of noise, or otherwise the whole herd would go on a stampede, and perhaps it would take a ride of thirty miles to get them back. But while the sing ing goes on you will see first one and then the other lie down to sleep, all coming as close together as it is pos sible. The riders keep on till the last has followed the example of the others and then the cowboys are done with their days labor.
 When stampede does take place the only remedy is for a rider to go ahead of the cattle. There would be no use in attempting to check it otherwise. Gradually, by turning this way and that, he gets the herd to make a circle, and when that is done the cattle will stand and can be led anywhere. But the singing seems to have as soporific an effect on the cattle as the speeches of certain poll ticians have upon an audience.-ln- terview in St. Louis Globe Democrat

THINKS HE WAS RIGHT.

Cleveland Stands by His Veto of the Des
Moines Land settlers Biil.
Fr DODGE, la, August 3-John F.
Duncombe, who nominated Boies at Chi
cago, wrote to Mr. Cleveland in relation to
his veto Of what was known as the Des
Moines river and settlers bill, and has re-
ceived the following reply:
BUzzARp's BAY, MASS. August 26.
Hon. John f. Duncombe.
MY DEAR SIR-Your letter of July 13 is at
hand, and thank you for the friendly senti-
ments which it contains remember very
well the perplexities involved in my action
upon the Des Moines river land grant My
memory is entirely clear upon two points
which largely entered into my considera-
tion. After reading the decisions Of the
courts upon the questions involved in the
bill which was before me for my action,
1t was entirely clear that the only result OF
the unfortunate settlers in litigation and
further load them with exposure, to no pur-
pose. The events seem to have proved that
l was right in this.
mind, and which was distinctly and en-
phatically declared in my veto, was to the
effect that If any settler had been induced
to go upon the lands and expend money in
improvements on the faith of some ruling of
the Land Department, such settler should
be fairly and justly remunerated for his out
lay. l should have been glad any time to
have relieved such settlers if 1t had been
possible to do 30. and no one can accuse me
of acting in the matter in any other spirit
than that of extreme kindness and tender
ness to ward those who had been injured bv
the vacillation of Government officials. This
matter can be made so plain by reference to
the laws and to my veto and the judicial
decisions bearing upon the questions that
do not see how it is possible Tor any person
to misrepresent or misunderstood the true
condition. Very truly yours,
GROVER CLEVELAND

will; but to make sure, I'd better write you
letter, like you wrote to me to show
Delbec. 1t makes it look genuine"
Mr.. wilkins called for pen and ink and
sheet of paper, and wrote as follows:
''SIR-I am anxious to obtain all the in.
formation can with regard to lady call
ing herself Mrs. Delbec, who is living at
-, Brussels Can you have her kept un-
der observation for a week, and also find
out for me the particulars of her past life?
If you can undertake the case call here, and
L will give you what information we have
about her,"
The letter written, he carefully cut off
the top corner where the address would
have been and the bottom corner where the
signature would have been, and then handed
it to his partner, who put it in his pocket
and went off to his suburban residence to
pack his bag and prepare for his trip to the
continent.
Three days afterward Mr.. wilkins re-
paired to his partners residence to hear the
result of the journey.
Mr.. Spvers was jubilant
The lady had received him, had listened
to his story, had read the letter, had be-
tray ed considerable agitation, had thanked
Mr. Spyers for his information, and en-
listed his services on her behalf The COM
edy had been played with her as it had been
with Mr.. Delbec. and she had confded to
Mr.. Spyers certain details invaluable to the
other side.

said Mr. Spyers, ''and it's evident she don't

you what, thinkw can do ourselves

tThe great question that Is to be de-
termined is whether the planet is inhabit-
ed like the earth. It has been shown be-
yond doubt that the planet is possessed of
vegetable matter Mountains and rivers
can plainly be discerned. The presence of
the vapors indicate very clearly that the
planet is surrounded by the same atmos-
phere as the earth This is a matter of
great Importance, and 1 can assure you that,
judging from the rapid strides made in the
scientific world, it will soon be known"
Mars named after the Roman god of war,
is the fourth planet in order of distance
from the sun, and the nearest to us of those
superior planets whose orbits lie outside of
the earth's.
Much Smaller Thar the Earth.
Its diameter is supposed to be 4, 900 miles
1t travels around the sun in a mean sidereal
period of6S6 81 days, at mean distance of
IA, 800, 900 miles, and returns to opposition
at intervals separated by mean period of
T99.33 days The eccentricity of the
orbit is very much greater than
that of the earth, so that while
its greatest distance from the sun
is 152, ,304, 900 miles, its least is 1876 SIS, 900
miles. The earth's mean distance from the
sun is 81, 430, 900 miles, SO that when the two
planets are in conjunction the mean dis
from the earth to Mars is about As, 200, 900.
But when they are in conjunction, or when
Mars is nearest the sun in its progress round
its orbit although the earth at that time Is
considerably further from the sun than her
mean distance, the distance between the
two is about 81, 900, 900 miles.
In 1877 it was discovered that Mars has
two moons. They are the smallest planets
ever discovered by scientists. They are
inner and outer planets; the inner is about
eight miles and the outer 20 miles in d.
ameter. The first is estimated about 1000
miles from Mars and the latter IL, 600 miles.

Of course, it did not exactly clear him of
his liability in the event of her making
further demands upon him. She was his
wife. But it was solution of the difficulty,
and Mr.. Delbec believed that he would be
troubled no further. He had had enough
of matrimony, and wasn't likely to want to
try the experiment again. and at any rate
it gave him peace for time and settled the
divorce proceedings.
