whoat Does Not Grow wild.

The existence of names for wheat III
the most ancient languages confirms the
evidence of its great antiquity and of its
cultivation in the more temperate parts
Of Europe, Asia and Africa. From the
evidence adduced by botanists of high
standing. it seems highly, improbable
that wheat has never been found grow
ing persistently in wild state, although
it has often been asserted by poets. tray-
clers and historians.
In the Odyssey. for example, we are
told that wheat formerly grew in Sicily
without the aid of man. Diodorus re-
peats the tradition that Osiris found
wheat and barley growing promiscu-
ously in Palestine, but neither this nor
other reputed discoveries of wheat
growing wild seem at all credible, see
ing that it does not appear to be endow-
ed with the power of persistency, ex-
cept under continued culture. Louis

Egypt, says Herodotus. is gift Of the
Nile. A truer or more pregnant word
was never spoken. Of course it Is just
equally true, in a way, that Bengal is a
gift of the Ganges. and that Louisiana
and Arkansas are u gift of the Missis-
sippi, but with this difference, that in
the case of the Nile the dependence is
far more obvious. far freer from disturb
ing or distracting details. For that rea-
son, and also because the Nile Is so much
more familiar to most English speaking
folk than the American rivers. 1 choose
Egypt as my type of a regular midland.
But In order to understand 1t fully you
mustn't stop all your time in Cairo and
the Delta; you mustn't view it only from
the terrace of Shepheard's hotel or the
rocky platform Of the Great Pyramid at
Gizeh; you must push up country early
to Luxor and the First Cataract. It is
up country that Egypt unrolls itself Wis

of making. 1t is there that the full I'M

pieken. a. an Art Critic.

The son of neighbor of Dickens, then
very young artist-indeed, quite a boy
had painted his first picture, the sub
ject being az aged knight in fun armor,
apparently having recently returned
from the wars, and overcome with fa-
tigue. Finding himself unable to reach
his ancestral castle, he sinks exhausted
ON a fallen tree in sort of orchard, and
some cottage children bring him some
fruit to recruit his exhausted strength.
Dickens took great interest in the young
artist-who. by the way. is now very

knight; but. My dear fellow" he said

The quickest Way co cure a Cold.

The quickest Way co Cure Cold.
Do YOU wish to know the quickest way
to cure cold? We will tell you. To
cure cold quickly, it must be treated
before the cold has become settled in the
system. The first symptoms of a cold
is dry, loud cough and sneezing. The
cough is soon followed by watery ex-
pectoration and the sneezing by a pro-
fuse watery discharge from the nose. In
severe cases there is thin white coating
on the tongue. What to do? 1t is only
necessary to take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in double does every hour.
That will greatly lessen the severity of
the cold and in many cases will effectu-
ally counteract it, and cure what would
have been q severe cold within one or
two days time. Try it and be convinced

FAS COME OFF THE ROOF.
Custodian Griffin's Great Job of Re-
covering the "StatehOuse.

Timothy Griffin, the custodian of the
Statehouse, has come down off the roof
of that building at last to stay. He has
virtually made his home up there for the
last thirteen weeks. OF course, people
missed him, and he was often inquired
about, but there were those who had no
doubt that Mr.. Griffin was with the rest
of the gang over at Washington looking
up a commission, and were delicate enough
not to ask after him. All this while, how
ever, Mr.. Griffin was away up on the roof
Of the Statehouse seeing to the re-roofing
of the building, and he did not bulge from
the place until the last sheet of copper had
been placed. This may seem a small mat
ter compared with the rest of the active
world, but it is not. To the State of Indi-
ana Mr.. Grifin's stay upon the roof of
the Statehouse means a great deal.
The last Legislature appropriated $4,000
with which to roof the building, and the
State officers, or at least some of them,
laughed at the idea of Mr.. Griffin roofing
the building with Sterling copper for that
AMOUNT, and so Ii was, under such dis
couraging circumstances, that Tim went
to the task. ON probing into the roof he
found it absolutely rotten in places, and
says that had the work not been done the
building would have been ruined in an
other year from the leaks. He put 1900
pounds of copper on the roof and took down
los. 600 pounds of rubbish. The last sheet
Of copper has, under his direction. been
laid, the roof has been painted, or will be,

spouts have been inserted, and of the $751;
coo Mr.. Griffin has money left. not TO throw
to the birds perhaps, but the marvel is no
less on that account. Contractor William
Workman has done an elegant piece OF
work. and Mr.. Griffin says he now has a
roof that will compare favorably with any
roof in the world-it is absolutely water
proof and will last; according TO Mr.. Crit

sCHMIDT's COMMISSIONS.
Monument Board Finds It's Agreement
a Rather Expensive One.

The commissioner were in ses-
sion again yesterday afternoon, but the
volume of business to be dispatched is con-
tracted from the fact that a question has
arisen which must be decided before the
burrs will move rapidly, and that is one of
commissions, purely, between Supervising
Architect Bruno Schmidt and the board.
The following agreement was made between
AIR. Schmidt and the board:
1T is agreed that the said party of the
second part shall receive, in consideration
OF and as compensation for his plans, draw
tngS, specifications, estimates, and all his
services as architect and supervising archi-
tect, inclusive OF compensation of his dep
ut architect, a sum equal TO five CO.. per
centum or the actual cost of the whole
work. including every kind of additional
work done under his supervision and in ac-
cordance with his plans. The sum Of [ snty-
three hundred dollars G2.30O of such said
compensation shall be paid as soon as work
ing drawings for all mechanical work and
specifications for foundations are substan-
TALLY completed; a further sum of fifteen
hundred dollars G1, 500 shall be paid on Jan.
1. 1859. after completion of the mechanical
v ork to be done during the coming season,
and after every specification and drawing
for mechanical work will be fully COM
pleted; and fifteen hundred dollars (1, 50e)

sum equal 10 ga per cent. Of the actual
cost of work done during coming seasons

close or each season, until the work comes

full settlement will be had, all the de-
ferred payments for the present and future
seasons TO be paid by the party of the first
part with vouchers upon the State for the
sums named in favor Of the party of the
second part"
At the time the board contemplated that
this per cent. should be on $22l 900. which
was the estimated cost OF the pile, but as
time goes on that amount has reached
the neighborhood OF $500, 900, and Mr.. En-
glish objects to paying that per cent. on
that amount. The Attorney-general viii be
called upon for an opinion in the matter
before the board will pay orders in full.

INDIANA BUILDING.
The Highest Bid the Commissioners
Have Received Thus Far Is $500.

The executive board of the Worlds Fair
Commission viii meet in Chicago to-day to
received bids for the sale and removal of
the Indiana State building. The advertised
sale on Oct. 10 did not bring a bidder, but
now the committee has found a willing pur-
chaser from Ohio who offers 5000 for II.
In order 10 save itself from IN expense ex-
ceeding the value OF the glass, the COM
mittee had to buy the glass. paying the
manufacturers who loaned il 10 the State
less than il would have cost to pack ii up
and send il back TO them. The sum OF $500
does not purchase the mantels, stone arches
and several other OF the more costly fur
nishings, which will be returned 10 the
donors. The committe hopes that the
building will remain in Indiana, and has in
mind a probable purchaser in South Bend
where the building is wanted for school pur-
poses. The plans OF the building at the ordi-
mary rates charged by architects would

FUTURE OF
Col. Jay G.. Kelley Talks of the In
creased Production of Gold.

Col. Jay G.. Kelley, of Denver. COX, an
old-time mine manager, is a guest at the
Bates. He says that the repeal of the
silver purchasing clause Of the Sherman
bill. at the time of its passage, seemed to
be a death blow TO Colorado and the West
generally, but may prove a blessing in dis
guise. The miners and prU+oectors have
turned thir attention to the search for
gold, and the product Of gold day is
greater in Colorado than ever he - Grip
pie Creek district alone, L.c.gn scarcely
two years old, is producing at the rate of
s. ,OO0.OO a year, and will next year pros
duce $1e,O10,0 600. Many Of the old friends of
ex-senator Stephen w. Dorsey will be
pleased TO know that he is the owner of
some Of the best mines in this famous dis
trict, and is fairly on the road to become
a multi-millionaire again in a short time.
Colonel Kelley says that Colorado always
was and always will be Republican in
politics, and that the blood TO the Bride
business is only the u~tterance of an excita-
BILE old man who was accidently made Gov
eruOr.

DITCH SEWERS
Board of Works Goes Over Route
of the North InterceptOr.
Work on 1t Will Probably Not Be Or
dered This Winter-BOard
of Works.

The Board of Works, with the Mayor,
drove over the territory recently annexed
TO the northeastern portion of the city yes
terday afternoon and saw the proposed
route Of the main i~ntercepting sewer that
is proposed for that section of the city.
For many years the ground which the pro-
posed sewer would drain was subject to
i~nundation, but Of recent years 1t has been
built up considerably, and with the intro
duction of small drains much of the damp
ness has been removed, although a heavy
rain will make the territory marshy for
several days. A great deal of the ground
lies north of the Atlas works and to the
south of 1t. Houses nave been springing
up in that marshy strip that was known as
SCOUT America" by the small boys of a
dozen years ago. Robert Martindale has
been one Of those most actively engaged
in urging the city to drain the territory.
Much of the land, however, was not in the
city limits, but the recent ordinance passed
by the Council takes it in. The Mayor has
signed the ordinance, and in a short time it
will become effective.
The proposed intercepter, which engineer
Herrick included in the State ditch system.
is to empty in Fall creek at Twentieth and
Bell streets, if built. At this point there
is a steep bluff of the creek, and it would
be very expensive to make the cut in the
banks, although the necessary fall may be
obtained without making this deep cut, so
assistant Jeup. who accompanied the board
yesterday, declares. From the mouth the
sewer route runs down Bell street to Shell
don, thence along Sheldon to Brinkman,
thence east to Harrison, south to Harlem
and then TO Baltimore. 1t would have 3
part I'm the doing way of the State ditch.
the abandonment of which has been a prob
lem for many years in municipal affairs.
The total length of this sewer would be
1000 feet and the cost in the neighborhood
of $135,000. Mr.. Herrick thought this inter-
ceptor ought TO be completed before the
main sewer that is now building and the
lateral sewers emptying into it are COM
pleted. Ii would relieve the waters from
the north end Of the ditch. and if not con-
structed the main sewer might be over
taxed. The board does not seem to be
o~verenthusiatic in ordering the papers pre-
pared for this interceptor. as it would bur-
den the property owners in the extreme
northeastern section of the city with a very
heavy tax. No action will be taken for sew
eral days at the least.
