The "Beautiful Word" Lady.

From Good Housekeeping.
There is a good English word which for

which we tave nearly lost the use of these
latter days-"lady." Its downward course
may have been traced for nearly twenty
years by newspaper jokes too familiar TO
bear repetition. We thought we had reach
ed the bottom, when, some time ago, a wilt
ness in a divorce case testified of the de-
PENDANT that She was very much of a lady
when she va sn't drunk" But since then
even lower depths have been in evidence
1t is such PITY l think we should at
least bemOan its loss decently and pass
some resolution of coincidence. 1t was such
a beautiful word. and we do miss it SO.

the Influence of the church against the

The decision of the papal delegate cannot
fail TO give additional authority to the
recommendation OF the court of Baltimore
that all Catholic saloon-keepers abandon as
soon as they can the dangerous traffic and
a living. The decision will serve as a re-
newal OF the invitation which our holy
father, Leo XIII. has already addressed 10

work OF temperance reform. And with The

A GREENSBORO INCIDENT.
The Queer Material That Built
Bridge for the Passage of Troops.

From the St. Louis Republic.
The prospect of war between China
and Japan reminds ME Of n very grewsome
incident which occurred on the occasion of
the taking of Pekin by the British ever
thirty years ago." said Clement Bazante,
who at one time an officer in the
British army. but who is now residing in
New York and was at the Southern yester-
day. The troops had little opposition, and
were marching rapidly onto the Chinese
capital, when their march was stopped by
a river too deep to be forded. No provision
had been made for crossing 1t because in
ordinary weather it is mere brook. For
a long time 1t looked as if the army would
have to wait until the rush of water caused
by recent rains had exhausted itself A
way out of the dilemma was, however,
found. In China it is customary for people
to purchase their collins and store them in
readiness for being needed. Chinese collins
are thoroughly air tight and the joints are
sealed up as to protect them against the
influence of drying out. 1t was decided to
make raid on all houses within reach and
secure enough collins to make a bridge.
Scouting parties went out in all directions
and brought in a great many more collins
than were needed These were chained and
spliced together and formed an excellent
pontoon bridge, with three or four thick
nesses of coffin lids the top for a road
way. The bridge answered all right, but a
good joke in connection with 1t cropped up.

has been acquired in the drill room and In
occasional sojourn In camp.
But there has yet to be reported an In
stance In which one Of these citizen soldiers
failed to do. his duty uniiinchingly or &c
conduct himself with soldierly frmness and
resolution. There were times. no doubt
when In the presence Of surly crowds, the
insults and stone throwing Of the rioters
tempers. That they acted SO cool-headedly
and with such strict obedience to orders is
hattering sign of their discipline and their
fitness for military tasks.
One Of the lessons which the peace-loving
citizens Of the state have thus learned from
the recent disturbances is that they may
in time OF need place perfect reliance upon
the members Of the National Guard In the
fine Chicago regiments-the first, the second
and the seventh--and in the well-drilled de-
tachments from other portions of the state
the public has a protecting agency amply
deserving of trust and confidence. II is but
fair that these soldiers on returning to their
usual civic pursuits should understand that
their service has won them the public's
hearty appreciation.
In the face of these facts II seems fncom-
prehensible that any employer who may
happen to have a member of a militia regi-
ment in his employ should so far forget his
own possible needs in future time of danger
as to discharge the man who has been obey
ing the orders Of his officers and has taken
an enforced leave Of absence. There are
cases. and, IL so. the responsible parties
must expect to receive from the public an
emphatic and just rebuke.

on a short crop of wheat in $780, which
was just about equal to the crop of last
year, wheat sold at nearly :. cents in 1880
compared with 81 cents in 1873 and % cents
in 1894. In 1891. on the largest wheat crop
ever grown in the United States. and larger
by nearly 1Oo,0oo,Oo0 bushels than the phe-
nomenally large crop of 1884, the cereal
sold at nearly IS cents, while yesterday the
wheat grown in the 1898 crop. which was
over a third less in quantity than the 1891
crop, sold at over a third less money a
bushel. The 1892 crop. while not as large
as that of 1871, was next to It, exceeding
even the figures of 1854.
Nevertheless, wheat in 1892. although the
crop OF that year was considerably over a
quarter larger than the crop Of last year.
sold nearly % cents a bushel higher than in
1894, and nearly Is cents a bushel higher
than in 1888. 1t has been the coincidence Of
small wheat crop in 1893, and low prices
extending into 1894, for the cereal which
has robbed the granger section Of the pros
perity which ii enjoyed in 1891 and 1892.
In those years the coincidence was of
enormous crops and relatively high prices.
In 1880 there was depression throughout
the west because the crops were short and
prices were considered low. In 1873 came
another year Of short crops. But prices
which were considered low in 1890 looked
high last year by comparison.
What is true of wheat applies with more
or less force to all other crops. Fat years
and lean years have been experienced in
the past, but high prices have characterized
lean years, and fair prices fat years When
the enormous wheat crop of 1884 caused
wheat to TALL below 40 cents a bushel the
price was without parallel since the war
But think of the difference between that
low price of December, 1881, and ~ cents
in July, 1874, after a short crop in 1893 and
with prospect Of only an average crop this
year,
A coincidence ot short crops and low
prices which 1898 Brought, means ruin to
agricultural interests. The farmers cannot
buy anything but the bare necessaries of
life; cannot replenish their farm imple-
ments; cannot paint their buildings; cannot
tuy all those varied articles which bring
freight traffic TO the railroads and employ-
n'ent to labor and capital in the various in

When agriculture suffers all other indus

and we have never had a scene upon
any English athletic ground to equal
that which was witnessed on Monday,
the occasion of the oxford and Yale
sports at Queens Club. The stand where
the American visitors had chosen to
muster had strange aspect: IL was
filled with people more or less smart,
but all intensely patriotic.
The outward symbols which marked
the partlsans of Yale were blue silk
cloths embroidered with the name OF
the American university: these the
ladies hung over the front of the stands
or caught up TO wave when occasion re-
quired. Cornnowers In huge market
punches were hung about the persons
OF the "Yaleites," regardless OF effect or
expense. The men presented most
