Identical With the Bible.

Expenses OF Travenng statesmen.
The travelling expenses Of the COM
mercial statesmen of the country foot up
over $500, 100000 year, and their to-
tai salaries and commissions probably
amount to about $3.50, 100000. But
these great sums, making together
$3.50, 000,0 900, would not begin to pay
for the cost and loss Of time that would
result were we to return to the old sys->s
tenn of letting the customers do the
travelling and visit the wholesalers in
person. A good deal of pleasure, how
ever, has been lost out of life by the
change of methods. The retailer used
to enjoy his occasional trips to the great
cities to buy goods, while his daily life
on the road is bore to the drummer.

Molasses has been used as stock feed
for distilling purposes, and now it is
being used for the additional purposes
of paving, for mortar and as lining
for furnaces. At recent meeting of the
sugar planters of Louisiana, and report

these uses of molasses were fully
discussed, and the fact was developed
that mixed with clean sand in proper
proportion it made binding material
as adhesive and more elastic than CO.

been made in furnaces by coating COM

PRIVATE TUCKER.

He was {; plain man. with plain
name. Before William Tucker, Esq,
became known to the world of men he
had been plain boy, very good, very
tender hearted and very much i'll earnest
about nothing i'll particular. Smaller
boys checked him with impunity and
made him tag for them; bigger boys
simply ignored HIM. Grown to man.
hood, there was but little change in
him. His Juniors snubbed him and vot
ed him fool; lis seniors for the most
part imposed upon him. He submitted
to it all with the best possible grace,
glad only to be taken notice of in any
way and apparently considering that it
was the only thing he could expect.
Then, as though life itself, as it stood,
did not hold sufficient bitterness for
him, he fell in love.
He must have known from the very
first that it was all hopeless and that it
could at the best only disturb his peace
of mind. But he went OH nevertheless
in his own dull, stupid fashion, content
only to touch her hand occasionally, to
get a sort of second rate smile from her.
It is probable that there was no thought
of any future i'll his mind.
He would turn up quite unexpectedly
at any place to which he knew she would
be going. lie would linger about new
ously and unhappily in corners, SO that
he might have the opportunity OF look
ing at her. He seemed to ask fer moth
ing more.
He would carry parcels and run mes
sages for the pretty child-she was but
little more--and considered himself
we'll paid if he received only smile in
return.
Once she was i'll, and he scarcely left
the house i'll which she lay until she
was we'll again. He haunted it by day.
He fingered about aimlessly at night.
He ruined himself by his lavish pur-
chases of flowers and dollhouse fruit.
When at last one summer day he was
told that she was convalescent, and that
she would see him, he felt that heaven
was within sight.
He was shown out into a garden;
where she was seated in a great chair,
with all her delicate beauty thrown into
stronger relief by the white bearskin rug
against which she leaned.
She looked SO pale and weak that, if
anything could have increased his love
for her, her appearance alone would
have done it.
"You have been very kind, Mr.. Tuck
en-" she said in low voice, "and am
very grateful. You have done SO much

THE POET TO HIS CAT.

Tuck in thy toes, prick up thine ears,
Assume listening attitude,
And will tell thee, happy cat,
The tale of thy beatitude,
And when I've told thee ell the truth
Just rub my hand III gratitude.
What hast thou to he thankful for
Besides thy far famed latitude?
Thou roamest free, W It'll ample room,
Not housed in cramping latitude,
And thou lest bees luxurious
On couch and chair and Multitude
Beds which but for thy hairs would be
Adorned with neatcst Multitude.
Thy days are passed in quietnesS,
Unteased by braWling Gratitude,
Nor even are thy nerves outworn
By steady stream OF Gratitude.
Simple thy clothing, happy cat,
UnveXed by styles in latitude.
Well mayst thou pity other cats,
Harried and worn by scatitude,
For friendly hands are stroking thee
With touch Of gentle patitude,
And never once has cruelty
Stirred thee to pitapatitude.
Noble cat pleasures fill thy life
And swell to high ecstatitude.
Thou mectest eft thy catfish kind
And join st in feline spatitude,
And when the fulines go for thee
Thou Civ st them titfortatitude,
And in the house thou max st thy boast
OF cellars cleared Of ratitude.
Let other cats their homes desert
In folly LIND as latitude.
Thou 1t never seek divorce from thine
On grounds of inconpatitude.
Now, cat I've told thee all thy lot
OF happy this and thatitude,
And | expect 10 see i'll thee
Appreci&tive c;ltitude.

Superiority of Glover.

The superiority Of clover over timothy
never perhaps was more apparent III
Ohio than during the present season.
The former stood the May freezes and
the severe drought following better and
has yielded double the amount Of feed
that timothy does Another very ima.
portant item in it's favor is it's fertiliz-
ing property At least ten bushels more
of corn per acre can be raised with less
work for man and beast on clover than
on a timothy sod. Its freedom from the
ravages of worms is another strong
point. -American Agriculturist

A CORRECTION.

Editor of the Evening Star.
In your report of Mr.. Ander-
sons speech in yesterday after
moons paper you say His oppo-
nent and champion for the gold
standard, Mr.. Pope, of Jackson
ville was not present" etc. This
statement | know was uninten-
tionally made and PLACES Mr.. Pope
in false hight before our people.
1t affords me great pleasure to say
that he is one of the original free
silver men of this state. He is
one of the few who attended the
first free silver conference and is
one of the most effective, ipflu-
entail, eloquent and powerful ad-
vocates of this policy that we
have in the state. Logical sim
cere and earnest, those who have
heard him will agree with me in
saying that our peop'e missed a
rare trsst in his not being with Us
last Monday night. But heprom-
Uses to be with US before the cam
paign is ended and after hearing
him you will be convinced that he
is the last man in Florida to b..
put down as the champion of the
single gold standard"
Very truly,
T. +. HARRIS.
The article referred to the above
was written by our reporter who
had been misinformed in regard
to Mr.. Pope's political faith and
we are glad the correction was
sent in as we desire to place Mr..
Pope in the proper light before
our readers. As our cerrespon-
dent has said, Mr.. Pope is one of
the strongest advocates Of silver
and is ready at all times to pro-
duce convincing arguments in its
favor.
