which is anything but flattering to
the Republicans and what gives it
the stamp of authenticity is that it
is taken from official records. After
reading it carefully thus far, we are
constrained to say that our convic-
tions are that when all the misdeeds
are Strengthened out, there will loom
up a steal that, in comparison, the
one Just now convulsing the world
will dwindle into insignifieance.
No business man, in his same mo-
ments, would attempt to carry on a
business without system of checks
to ten him just how his business
stood, at any moment. Our author
tiles at Washington do not know
how many millions Of unregistered
bonds have been issued-so the ex-
pert clerks testify. The revelations
which are near at hand will give
some of the brigands trouble to ex-
plain. q

Ex-kayor T. n. Kleinschmidt, president
Of the Board of Trade. proposes to call to
the attention Of that organization the prac-
ttoability Of appointing . committee to
gather and disseminate statistics Of the
state. His idea 10 TO have the committee
prepare blanks containing a series Of ques-
tons for farmers, mine owners, clerks OF
counties, etc. These blanks will DO sent
and returned. The farmer can tell how
msny acres he has under cultivation. what
varieties and quantities of grain, vegetables
and fruits he grows. how much
of his farm is under irrigation
and how much is soapab!e OF be-
ing irrigated, and any other inform alton
may auQRsst itself ~ being Of inter-
est. Tho mining man could tell the loca-
tion and amount Of workings on his prop
erty, the kinds and quantities of ores p.o-
duosd; tie returns from sale Of ores, the
expense of production. net profit. etc.
From clerks Of counties other information
could be had, such - the assessabls value
OF farm. mining and other property, tnx
levy. expenses of county government and
the like. These etatistics. onoe secured.
would be compiled in proper shape. 20 that

EXPERIMENTS WITH LAYING HENS.

Belief in the necessity Of keeping a
male bird with laying hens is still
quite common. In order to settle this
point series of experiments was I'M
dertaken by the Geneva n. " Sta
ton. The trial was made with four
pens, two of which contained cocker
els, while the other two were without
any The result showed that q pen of
pullets kept without male produced
eggs Mt about thirty per cent. less cost
than an exactly similar pen with which
q Cockerel was kept.
Another pen without q male gave
during the first three months about
the same propOrtiOnate excess of prod
uCt over IN exactly similar pen with
which cockerel was kept After the
development Of the feather eating
habit the egg product diminished, but
during eight months the total egg
yield for each pen were very nearly
alike
In each of the two pens without male
birds some pullets had begun to lay
from one to two months earlier than
any III the corresponding pens i'll which
male birds were kept
While eating" usually APP
pears after feeding for any length of
time an UNMARRIED ration deficient in
some constituents, more especially nj
trOgenOus matter, the habit has devel-
oped from idleness or some unknown
cause among fowls having ration
which gave satisfactory results with
other similar pens of fowls fed at the
same time.

Military Bullies.

Austrian officers have an evil repu-
tation for heartless treatment OF in
ferior, in the army. A colonel, while
inspecting a regiment of Hussars on
the parade ground in Vienna, was ir-
ritated by the awkwark appearance Of
a subaltern. He angrIiy called the Of
fender to his side and cuffed his ears.
The officer was cut to the quick by
an insult which degraded him to the
level of a lackey. He returned to his
place with flushed face and tears in his
ewes. Ashamed to meet the con-
temptuous chances of the soldiers and
half-insane from modification, he shot
himself in the head and died almost
instantly.
This tragic incident produced al
most as marked an effect upon the
Vienna garrison rs was caused by n
similar affront, which was followed Ivy
a decline of duelling in the French
army.
A lieutenant serving in a regiment
of lancers was Systematically Perse-
cuted by a captain, who was an incor-
rigible bully. One day the captain
lost his temper at dinner, and cutfed
the lieutenant's ears.
Army etiquette required challenge
from the insulted officer. The lieu
tenant had been under fire IN battle
and was not Il coward, but he would
not consent to send challenge. His
friends expostulated with him in vain.
They could not remove his consCien-
tious scruples against duelllng.
His refusal caused n scandal which
touched the honor of the officers of
his regiment. His colonel finally askel
him to choose between fighting the
duel and resigning his commission.
He sent the challenge and named the
conditions. The antagonists were to
choose pistols by lot, one being loaded
and tho other not, and were to fire
over a handkerchief.
The duel was fought at dawn. The
men stood face to face, holding n
handkerchief with their left hands
The bullying captain snapped the trig
ger of his pistol. There was no sound.
The empty weapon had fallen to him
by lot.
The seconds thought that the in
suited lieutenant, being opposed to
duelling, would fire in the air. In
stead of this he aimed his pistol re-
morselessly ut the captain and killed
him. Then dipping his hands in his
victims blood and turning to those
who had forced him to fight the duel,
he shouted:
els it enough? Is honor now safe?"
Returning to the officers quarters,
he resigned his commission in the
army. Not long afterward he disap-
peared from the world, and entered
monastery to spend the remainder Of
his life as n religious recluse.
This duel produced marked inn
preston upon the officers of the French
army. 1t was n warming against bully
ism in the treatment of subordinatcs.
The suicide in front of the Vienna
barracks teaches the same moral with
equal impressiveness. Youths Com
panion.
