A FEW WASHINGTON TYPES.
Impressions That Are First Made
Upon Visitors.

The first note that strikes a visitor to
Washington-that is, visitor from the
according to Leslie's Weekly. Evidence Of
this is present every side. and it continues
to accumulate SO long as the visit lasts. At
the railway station, in the street cars, in
the hotels, even the houses to which one
goes, this note Of the sunny South. with its
polite and amtabie people, and most Of ALL
with it's children Of a former slavery. is ever
present That this should strike one on
first coming Is not strange, but that the
observant person who thinks about what is
seen should have this note always present in
his mind, it matters not how frequent may
be the visits, shows that IL sounds true and
has a certain kind of abiding melody.
1t must not be understood that all that one
sees In Washington is of the South. Fifth
avenue, Chestnut street, Piccadilly and the
Rue de la PaiX have sent many Of theih best
fashions to the American capitol for the
benefit of the people OF wealth and fashion
there. But these carefully clad people when
they promenade keep themselvs tiresomely
near to Connecticut avenue and Scott circle
The others. the men with the wide brimmed.
soft-crowned hats the men who punctuate
their politeness with many graceful "sirs,
they are everywhere. And glad are those
who like an old-time gallantry to see them,
too.
But there are others besides. For them we
choose another paragraph, for fear Of offense
to those we admire most heartily. These
others are the darkies. They, too, are every
where. Always smiling, nearly alwE6eR polite,
they give the bit of color to the street
scenes without which no town can be pictur-
eSque none cosmopolitan. They are the
household servants of the city, and in great
measure the laborers well. They are
property owners, too, and the chances are
nine in ten when a tuInble-down rookery Is
found staggering in a goodly company OF
mansions that the owner Of It is a negro-a
negro OF abnormal independence and fore
sight or an unfortunate lame duck with a
title that will not pass scrutiny. les, the
first note and the abiding note of Washington
is that it is the very South, with all that
the South implies.

DISEASES OF GRAIN.
They Are Interestingly Discussed by
j. ZiIma.

A subject Of interest famous at all
seasons of the year is that relating TO
the diseases of grain. Speaking of this
j. ZiIma, who has given much study
to the subject said yesterday
Blight originates in cold and frosty
winds, and is often occasioned by the
cold and eaSterly winds Of spring. 1t
generally assumes the appearance of a
ruSty-loOhng powder that soils the
fingers when touched. Some blades Of
wheat with this specie of blight were
found to have these spots or patches
dispersed over the surface of the leaf
exactly like that of the seeds on ferns.
On closer inspection they were found to
consist of thousands of small globuleS
collected in groups beneath the epider-
mis-, which they raised in a sort of Bills
ter and at last burst Some of these
giobules seemed as if imbedded in the
longitudinal We ssels Of the blade. They
are yelloWish or rust brown and some
what transparent, but these have been
found to be patches of a minute fungus
entering either from the air or via the
pores in the roots. It is known among
farmers as red rust. There is another
form Of fungus, known as red gum
which attacks the ear only, the glob-
ules of which are filled with a red
powder which eXplodes when they are
put into water. 1t is generally accom-
panied by a maggot of yellowish color
which preys upon the grain and in
cTeases the amount of the injury
Smut is disease incidental to Guilt
waited corn, by which the farina Of the
grain, together with its proper integu-
ments and even part of the husk, is
converted into a black soot-like pow
der. If the injured ear can be struck
with the fingers. the powder will be dis
persed like a cloud of black smoke, and
if a portion of the powder be wet
with a dTOn Of wafer and examined
under the microscope, there will be
found millions of minute, transparent
glObules, which seem to be composed Of
a clear and gluey fluid body. There is
doubt as to the origin of smut. Some
attribute it to the soil, others to the
seed, holding that smutted seed will
produce a smutted crop. Some farm
ers say that it originates in a small
fungus, which multiplies and extends
until it occupies the whole ear, but it
seems to be merely a morbid swelling
of the ear, and not at all connected
with the growth of a fungus 1t is
said to be prevented by sleeping the
grain before sowing.
Besides the disease called smut, there
is also a disease similar to it, or a dit
ferent stage of the disease, known to
the farmers by the name of bags or
smut balls, in which the nuclus Of the
seed only is converted into a black
powder, whilst the ovary as we'll as
the huSk remains sound The ear is
not much altered in it's external an
pearance, and the diseased grain con-
tanned in it will even bear the opera
ton of threshing, and consequently
mingle with the bulk, but it is always
readily detected by the experienced
buyer, and is fatal to the character of

MEXICO WILL RiETAILATE.
Tariff on American Imports a La
DinEley.

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE Times-Her-
AIDS Washington special says: The
trainers of the Dingley bill are much
interested in semi-off1cial report from
the City of Mexico, to the effect that
retaliatory tariff bill is to be intro
duCed in the Mexican congress this
week. 1t is stated that in view of the
practically prohibitive duty on Mexican
cattle, provided by the Dingley bill, the
Mexicans will place a prohibitive duty
on American hogs and packing house
products, which comprise one # our
most important articles of export to
Mexico.
Last year II, $50 hogs, valued at $685.
S07, were sent from the United States
to Mexico and this number comprised
almost all of our live hog expectations.
The total number exported to all cOun-
tries was 1,046, and their total value
was 1927, 297. Our expectations Of lard
to Mexico are also large, having
amounted last year to 3,440,157 pounds,
valued at $209,727. The other articles
which the Mexicans propose to tax to
prohibitory point, are canned beef,
picked and sailed beef, cured beef,
tallow, bacon, hams, picked pork, NUT
ton, imitation butter, cleo oil. poultry
and game, and other provisions.

matter. The majority reported to in
definitely postpone the measure.
The house members who recalled the
sensational scenes at the last session
incident to the attempt to secure legfs-
lation on the matter Of taxing sleeping
car, express, telephone and telegraph
companies, forestalled any repetition
at this session by punching the five or
six bills on these subjects, and making
them the subject of a special order,
which was taken up and disposed OF
Wednesday.
With only nine legislative working days
remaining, a glance at the docket Of the two
houses shows that If the lack Of time does
not deprive citizens of the state of much
worthy legislation it will be because a rare
discrimination is shown by the law-making
bodies in sitting the deserving bills from
the hodge-podge Of miscellany which is
piling up on it.
The house has had introduced this session
1,O2l bills Of which 400 have been postponed
indefinitely, approximately leaving $50 bills
alive. OF these it has passed 209 and the
senate has Endorsed 50 OF these, all but two
Of which have either been signed or are wait
ing signature. In the 40 odd house bills
which are pending in the senate are a num-
Der Of measures OF vital importance to the
people of the state. among them a number
OF bills for the taxation Of various prop
critics of great value.
not yet passed that house, it will take a rare
wedding process to get any Of them through
both houses now.
The senate, while II has had few bills
originating within its chamber has scarcely
gotten nearer the close Of its work. It has
killed 131 bills, leaving 5SS extant, 100 OF
which have passed and are out of the way.
The house has deliberately, IL not always
| tudiciously, slaughtered 20 of this senate
selection and has as yet only honored Is Of
them with its formal approval.
The total number of laws created by
the legislature so far Is 139.

has given rise to some question to the
wisdom of comforting such plenary powers

RICCIOTTI GARIBALDI.
Career of the Man who Is Raising
an Italian Legion.

Ricciott Garibaldi Who,7E according to re-
cent reports from Rome has organized three
regiments of volunteers for service in the
Greek army in Crete is no stranger on the
battle field, and won his spurs more than
thirty years ago. He is the eldest son Of the
Italian patriot, Giuseppi Garibaidi, was born
in 1S47, and was consequently only about two
years old when his father gained fame in the
defense of Rome against the French, says a
New York Tribune writer.
When the war for the liberation of Venice
broke out in 1866 GaribaIdi recruited and
commanded a body of volunteers, and Ricciotti
held a minor commission! Il He was with the
volunteers when they advanced into the Tren-
tino, and the command of which he was a
member gained the only victory for the Ital-
ians in the inglorious campaign. When the
elder Garibaldi advanced against the Papal
troops a year later and tried to liberate Rome,
his son was again one of his officers, and
among those who defeated the papal forces
near Monterotonde on Oct. %, 1867. He fol-
lowed his father toward the papal stronghold,
and was in the battle near Montana when the
French and the papal army defeated the vol
unteers 1t was in this battle that the then
recently invented Chassepot rife was used with
murderous effect against Garibaldfs troops.
Garibaldi and his Ricciotti were captured
and held as prisoners in the fortress OF Vari-
gnano, near SpeZZia, for some time, and
were finally allowed to return TO the Garibal di
home in Capreara- In 1S70, in answer to the
appeal of Gambetta, Garibaldi and his son
went to France and offered their services to
the republic in the war against Germany.
Ricciotti received a commission in his faith
er's corps which was called 'the Volun-
teers of the Vosges," and his services in that
command are still referred to with pride by
the French and Italians. On Oct. 8, in the en-
gagement near DIXON, he gained a small vic
tory over the Germans and personally cap
tured the only German flag which fell into
the hands of the French soldiers during the
campaign. One historian of the battle said
that the failure of the German forces to adj
vance further in the direction chosen by their
dIra f1ra nan pS
by Garibaldi.
When the Franco-German war was over the
younger Garibaldi went to South America and
to Australia on a business tour, and on his
return to Italy he made his home in Rome,
where he went into business. In 1887 he was
elected a member of the italian parliament,
but gained no prominence there and was not
reelected. He is a man Of moderate means,
and like the other members Of the Garibaldi
family, he receives 10000 francs year from
the Italian government, which, together with
the revenue derived from the family estate
on the island of Capreara, gives him modest

ELUDED THE POLICE
Fistic Stars Contest Across the Da-
kota Line.

A select party of $50 sports witnessed
a lively finish prize fight yesterday
afternoon, which was pulled off at a
road house. just over the Dakota coun-
ty line. The fight was between Al Roy,
Of st. Paul, and George Smith, of Du-
luth, light weights, who. had each add
ed $25 to a purse for the winner, and
it was fast and furious from start to
finish, ending in a victory for Roy in
the fifth round, when he scored a clean
decision. A knowledge of the fight
reached the police yesterday morning,
and they were apprehensive that an
attempt might be made to bring it off
within the city limits. AS one of the
spectators expressed it, ''It came

The men got together in a barn on

spectators were crowded about the

came together, every one could see fun
ahead, as both men were active and
aggressive. Roy knocked his opponent
down in the first round, and Smith, re-
turning the compliment, did the same
thing for him with a savage upper cut.
Each man scored another knOckdOWn

round the spectators threatened to take
a hand in the game when it was claim

thousand people and over sat in the
stand and shivered this afternoon at
League park but what was lacking in
the warmth of atmosphere was made
up in the sensation given the enthusi-
asts by Comiskey's team
Tony Mullane, who has so often
pitched the Colonies to defeat, was
pitted against them today, and had he
remained in the box a victory would
have gone to ST. Paul. He pitched six
innings, and, not wishing to give him
too much work Munich was substi-
tIrted. While possessing speed and
good curves, Munich had no control, and
his advent in the box was the turning
point in the Kentuckians' favor.
He first hit Dexter and then sent
Clingman and Magee to bases on balls
when he was taken out, Phyle going in.
Two balls had already been pitched to
Holmes and Phyle finished out the
four, forcing Dexter across the plate.
The work Of the visitors was on the
whole superior to that Of the home
team, and but for the unfortunate sew
enth when Munich went in the result
would have been otherwise.
O'Rourke first got his base on balls
after Louisville had been retired in the
first, and two outs from the pitcher to
Werden sent him to third, a passed
ball enabling him to score. st. Paul
added two more in the fourth on hits
of Preston, George, Glasscock and Shu-
CART and another passed ball Nc
Creery's base on balls, Pickering 9
single and a force out enabled Louis
Vile to score its first In the sixth.
Singles of George, Glasscock and Shu-
CART, chickering's error and a wild pitch
gave st. Paul two in it's half. Werden
and Rogers assisted Louisville in scor-
ing its six runs in the seventh. Phyles
triple and Hollingsworth's long fly
scored one for st. Paul in their half of
the seventh. Manager Comiskey de-
cided tonight that he would not sign

man in view. The score:
