The general fall in prices Of all kinds
Of commodities in this country between
1878 and 1894 was 43 per cent. It is in
teresting to note that wheat fell 60 per
cent, nearly 20 per cent more than the
general average, showing how the sud-
den opening up Of the great wheatfelds
Of the northwest for time glutted the
world s markets and drove prices down.
Meat foods, on the other hand, fell off
during the periods named only 81 per
sent, Indicating, if meat producers had
had the intuition to discern it, that the
population was increasing faster than
the beef, mutton and pork supply. The
fact that for a year or two beef cattle
were: very low in price does not alter
the general conclusion. The demand fo1
animal food Of all kinds, both meat and
dairy products, is still. crowding the
supply very close. Next to animal pro
ducts the articles that fell off least il
the general decline were tea, coffee anC
sugar, SO per cent. Textile fabrics de-
elined, nearly half, while: metals ane
minerals in general, owing to the UMPIRE
oedented discoveries Of rich silver anG
other mines in the west, declined Sc pc,
cent, nearly as much as wheat.

A GrewsOme Night Ride.

The approach of the thirty first ami
yersary Of General James, B. McPher.
son s. death, recalls with, melancholy in
serest an incident narrated by the late
Secretary Gresham General Gresham:
told. the story: the evening before he was
stricken: with his last illness, then little
thinking that he himself was soon to
join the choir invisible. ..
! Mcpherson was killed July %, 1864,
near Atlanta, it will be recalled. Gen.
sral Gresham commanded a division in
the Army Of the Tennessee. Gresham
was badly wounded. Mcpherson helped
to lift him. upon a stretcher with his
own hands and sent his staff surgeon to
attend the case. With good wishes for
Greshan's speedy recovery he babe him
goodby. 81 ''~..' -
!: Gresham was carried to a little rail
way station to wait the coming Of a
train. He lay meanwhile upon the
stretcher in the broiling sun, suffering
terrible: pain. After he had been there
several hours he observed that wooden
coffin was brought and placed beside
him. He observed too, rather strangely,
that member Of Mcpherson sstaff was
in charge Of the men that guarded it. =
! "Whose coffin is that?" asked Gresh-
