Abuses of Crop Reports.

The agricultural department of the
government now boasts OF very per-
feet organization for obtaining reports
upon the condition of the crops, GER
eals in store, etc. Agencies have
been established in most of the coun-
ties, so that any change in the crop
prospect throughout the entire coun-
try could be quite accurately reported
to Washington in a few hours. Are
the farmers benefited by this splen-
did system of reporting? Is it not
possible that it may do them more
harm than good? Who uses reports
to the greatest advantages? Not the
farmer, but the grain speculator.
Dealers in options bull or bear the
markets upon the strength of these
reports. The agricultural department
was intended to beneicially serve the
farmers. but the initial uses of these
reports fleece them rather than bene.
fit them.

The Philosophy of Etiquette.

The secret of good manners IS good
taste: the art of knowing how 10
smooth out the rough places and
make boorishness appear angellc'
The trifing amenities of everyday
life 20 long way toward making eS-
istence endurable. Books may direct
you in the proper channel to acquire
these but cannot teach them; they
must be attained through careful
nurture, or by the exercise OF the
good taste and intuition consequent
upon close observation and proper as
sociation. To know howto accord due
courtesy to ones fellows upon any
and every occasion, Is among the SIM
plest and cheapest of life's lessons
but how few have learned this lesson
we'll
1t is useless to point out set line
of etiquette when good taste regulates
everything. Most rules Of this KIND
are made to be broken. What may
be suitable upon one occasion is n'ne
times in ten out of place upon anoth-
er. The simplest way to decide such
questions where there is possibility
of doubt, is to accord to Others the
same consideration we demand OF
them for ourselves. By pursuing
this course no one is offended, the
wrinkles of life become rs velvet to
the touch and the darkest frown Is
transformed into the sunniest smile.
Should your friend or acquaintance
deny you this necessary essential Of
the humblest breeding, do not upbralo
him and say unkind things of him
Just feel sorry for him; he is unworth
Y of your scorn, but deserves you
pity.

A CRAZY MAN.
Tries to Murder his Family with
HGtchet.

j. ID. Potter, L. $. mail carrier on
the south stage route, reports that
last Thursday night one Johnston,
a farmer living just over the county
line in Buffalo county, became VIC
lently crazy. He was at his home,
together with his wife and his
girls, Johnston became raving and
tried to kill his wife and children
with IL Ratchet. They escaped by
running into their cellar, closing and
fastening the door. Johnston then
went out in the cold in his night
clothes and bare footed. He made
his way over the ice and snow ever
al miles to Mr.. Parmeley's house in
this county. No one was home at
the time, but when thefamily arrived
the unfortunate man had his frozen
and bloody feet in a bucket OF cold
water. He was cared for as we'll us
could be, and the Buffalo county Of
fcers notified of his condition.
The unfortunate man has since
died. He was subject to commissions.
and during one OF these he died. The
remains were buried yesterday in the
south Hand cemetery.

As a matter of fact, our sovereigns
have rarely taken any active part in
politics since George Ills time, but
they could still do some very astonish-
ing things if they chose. The queen
could dismiss every Tommy Atkins in
our army, from the commander III chief
to the youngest drummer boy. She
could disband the navy III the same way,
and cell all our ships, stores and arse
mails to the first customer that came
along. Acting entirely on her own re-
sponsibility, she could declare war
against any foreign coanhy, or make a
present to any foreign power of any
part of the empire She could make ev-
cry man, woman and child in the coun-
try a peer of the realm, with the right,
in the case of males who are Of age, to
a seat in the house of lords.
With single word she could dismiss
any government that happened to be in
power, and could, it is believed, pardon
and liberate all the criminals i'll our
jails. These are few of tine things the
queen could do if she liked, but it is
not necessary to Say that her majesty
never acts In matters of state except on
the advice of the government for the
time being. London Bits

HERE'S 4 NUT TO CRACK.
A Puzzle That May give Leisure Mind

problem-who robbed an orchard, car
ried away the apples in a sack, laid
them up in barn for the night and
went to bed One of them woke up be-
fore dawn, and, being distrustful OF
his friends, thought he would make
sure of his share at once. He therefore
went TO the barn. divided the apples in
to three equal heaps-there was one
over, which he threw away-and car
Tied of his share. Another niger then
woke up with the same nneasiness and
the same resolution. He, too, divided
the apples into three heaps-thero was
one over, which he threw away-took
his share, and carried it OF. And then
the third Niger woke up with the same
emotions. lie, too, divided the remain
ing apples into thee portions-there
was one over, which he threw away
took his share and departed
In the morning every one preserved
silence over his doings Of the night;

into three heaps-ene was over, which
they threw away--and so took each his
share How many apples were there in
the sack? There are many possible an

niggers, apart from the problem Of their
apples.

Tn. GlowwOrm Cavern.

The greatest wonder of the antipodes
is the celebrated glowworm cavern,
discovered in 1891 in the heart of the
Tasmanian wilderness. The cavern or
caverns (there appears to be series of
such caverns in the vicinity, each sepa-
rate and distinct) are situated near the
town Of Southport, Tasmania, in lime
stone bluff. about four miles from Ida
bay. The appearance Of the main cav
srn is that of an underground river, the
entire floor Of the subterranean passage
being covered with water about a foot
and half in depth. These wonderful
Tasmanian caves are similar to all cav
ems found in limestone formation, with
the exception that their roofs and sides
literally shine with the light emitted
by the millions Of glowworms which in
habit them. st. Louis Republic.
