John Morley is fond OF dogs, espe-

is frequantly seen at his heels on the

"All about Friedrichsruh you see evil

George w. SmalleT. the famous cor
respondent, on Tile Personal Side Of
Bismarck" in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal. There come, of course, multi
tudes who care first of all to see the
great man. They come from all over
Germany, and not a few from other
parts OF the world, the United States
included. 1t Is an event to witness
his reception of them, the homage they
oner him, which Is SO evidently in great
part personal. for 1t Is no longer as II
he were the all-powerful minister and
ruler of Germany. These pilgrimages
are honorable to human nature and
especially to German human nature.
But what struck me especially in such
OF these demonstrations as l have seen
was the mood in which Prince Bis
marck received them. To him they
were tokens Of Friendships: he clearly
liked to think of these strangers. as
friends. Some Of them had been his
comrades in the battlefield. or the
senate house. You saw how fraternal
was the feeling with which he grasped
their hands. The light came into his
eyes, and have seen tears come into
theirs. There was between them q tie
which both recognized. and it was be-
cause the Princes recognition OF 1t was
SO heartfelt, so human and tender, that
the hearts Of these veterans of war and
peace overlooked"

On the birthday Of Kansas.

The proposal to make Jan 80, the
birthday of Kansas, a holiday i'll that
state seems to receive, and deserves TO
receive, passionate approval among Kan
sans. On that day not only will hymns
be sung in honor of the sons OF the sun
flower State, but contemptuous stare,
bitterer than the blizzard, will be hurled
at the cormorants of the east. Hurled Is
the proper word, and oormorants know
what to expect. Our esteemed contem-
porary, the Topeka State Journal pre-
fers to fling. 1t says that kansas Gay
should be used to glorify our state ana
fling back in the faces OF the eastern
detractors our defiance OF their aouse
and malignant misrepresentation
That is the talk.
Again to the battle, ye Kansans.

TALLYlNG PlNEAPPLES.
Quick Work Done In Handling the Fruit
on the New York Wharf

The pineapple season lasts from ABOUT
March / to about Aug. l. New York
gets pineapples from the Florida keys,
from the West Indies and from the Ba-
hamas. Some come i'll steamers, some
in sailing vessels. Pineapples from Ha-
yana by steamer are brought in barrels
and crates. Pineapples brought in sail
ing vessels are brought mostly in bulk
mot thrown in loosely, however, but
snugly slowed, so that as many as pos
sible may be got into vessel.
On the wharfs here pineapples
brought in bulk are handled with great
celebrity. Men in the hold of the vessel
fill bushel baskets with them and hand
the baskets up on deck, where they are
passed along and set up on the string
piece of the wharf. The trucks In which
they are to be carted away are backed
down handy. A box of suitable height,
and which is as long as the truck is
wide, is placed at the end OF the truck
A man standing near ON the wharf lifts
the baskets from the stringpiece and
sets them up ON this box. Two men
stand at the box, each with basket OF
pineapples in front of him, to count the
mines and throw them into the truck,
which has racks at the sides; lengths OF
board are placed across the end as the
load rises. Two men stand in the truck
to level the fruit as it comes to them.
The two counters are experts, and they
work with great rapidity and steadiness,
keeping pineapples going all the time
Each man picks up two pineapples at
time. one with each hand, and gives
them toss into the truck, both men
counting as they go along, one after an
other, zone, A" 1.-TWO, three, -four,
five" and so on up, each count mean
ing two pineapples. When they strike
zone hundred" the tallyman makes 9
straight chalk mark on the end OF the
truck; that stands for 200 pineapples.
While he is making the chalk mark the
other counter keeps right Oh. and he may
have got up to 1.-TWO" or three again,
for it takes second or two to make the
chalk mark, but by that time the tally
man is at it again Ginning i'll witt
"four," and away they go togethel
again. counting up rapidly toward an
other hundred. IL man on the loat
finds a specked pine, he drops 1T owe

WHAT THEY WILL DO.
Future Plans of the Retiring Presidents
and His Cabinet.

The out Of Office programme or the
president and his cabinet is almost set
tied. Cleveland after the 4tb of March
will take up the handling of the fortune
he has accumulated in and out of office,
and his secretary Of war will be with
him, as heretofore, in all his deals, hav-
ing his eyes politically cast toward gu
bernatorial honors.
Both Secretary Olney and Attorney
General Harmon will return to the law
practices they have kept tethered safely
during their time of service with Cleve-
land. Secretary Herbert is said to be
slated for good thing in connection
with the Cramps projected ordnance
plant.
Carlisle is certain of the future. as
dozen threads are in his hands, and any
one will lead to comfortable berth Tor
life. 1t is thought he will become gen
eral counsel for the Equitable Life As
surance company at $40, 900 a year.
Morton need have no cares for the fu-
ture. He was very wealthy before he
entered Cleveland's cabinet, and, while
he has added nothing to his fortune dur
ing his four years in the agricultural
department., he still has money enough
to keep him comfortable for many times
his natural term of years. He will 90
back to his farming in Nebraska.
Francis of the interior department
will return to the st. Louis wheat pit.
Postmaster General Wilson, practical
ly without a fortune, will be deprived
utterly of the support he has derived
from his place in the house, and, having
been so long divorced from the active
practice of law, will be in the worst po
sition of any of the cabinet people
Cleveland would like to do something
for Wilson in a judicial way, but op
portunity lacks. He may accept an oifel
he now has under consideration to be
come president of the Washington ant

learning in the south. IT'D

TO MAKE OATMEAL DEAR.
Cereal MiIlers' Association Is Formed to
Rule the Market.

Nearly every oatmeal and cereal mill
in the United States hasjust entered into
an agreement that amounts to power
full trust TO regulate the output and
price; of oatmeal, rolled oats and other
breakfast cereals.
The new trust that threatens TO
squeeze cut of existence the smaller
mills of the country and make big ad-
vance in prices as soon az the CONDITION
of the trade will allow it is called the
Cereal Millers' association.
The general manager of the associa-
tion is George W. Brown Of Sioux City,
Ia, who gets $3.50 month for his serv-
ices. Most of the mills that compose
the trust are located in Iowa and IN
Ohio. The trust already is Responsible
it is said, for the big jump OF vi a
barrel which rolled oats took III Novem-
her and the decline Of 10 cents barrel
in December, which was almost lnde-
pendent of the price OF oats ut that
, time.
Every mill that is taken into the
combination signs an ironclad agree
ment. the written object of which is the
securing of "better business methods by
the members thereof" but the real OBJ
iect of which is said to be the freezing
ont of the smaller millers for the bene
ft of the big ones.
The general manager Of the associa
tion is the absolute monarch OF TIT
trust. In other words, the general man
aver is the "whole thing" If there ar
any other officers the constitution ant
bylaws of the association say nothing
about them, and most of the small mill
ers that are not in the trust konw moth
inc about them. Chicago Tribune.

difference between the two countries.
Tho nay of the French infantry officers,

difference between the two countries.
The pay of the French infantry officers
according to the war budget, is nearly
$43, 900, 900, but that Of the officers OF
the German infantry is not less than
$4S, 900, 900.
In time of peace our soldiers are kept
on two meals day, costing $50, 600, 600,
while the soldiers on the other side OF
the Rhine are kept and fed on one meal
day by means of an appropriation OF
$50, 900, 900.
Does not this comparison justify the
law creating fourth battalion in each
one of the 145 army corps regiments
named?
1t is believed that the appropriation
which will be asked for on the opening
of the session of the chamber Will be ior
30 additional battalions for 1897.
