Venezuelan Cattle in Foreign La

Venezuelan Cattle in Foreign Lands.
The cattle industry of Venezuela is
one that may become of enough i'm
portance at any time to constitute
menace to the American cattle trade in
various foreign markets. In 1894 the
number of cattle in Venezuela was esti-
mated at 5000, 900 head, while today
the total number is not fewer than 10,-
600, 900 head and it is expected the
number will be doubled in the next
four years. There is excellent reason
to think that this trade is capable OF
enormous development. The lands
capable of furnishing good grazing are
vast in extent.

MISS ANDERSON TO RETIRE.
For Thirty-Five Years Teacher in
the Public Schools.

Miss Fideia Anderson, one of the best
known and loved of the teachers in the
public schools, will close her thirty-five
years of such service to-day and will re-
tire from the work. Miss Anderson has
been lame for a number of years, and she
has found difficulty in pursuing her work.
For some time she has been compelled to
ride the two squares from her home to the
school. She has given faithful service in
her position in the schools, and her days
of absence have been rare. She has been
the instructor of Thousands during her ca
reer and there is many a family in the
city where some member has been guided by
her wisdom. She went to school in Gran
vile, o., and later at school in Crawfords-
VILE She has not only been the teacher,
but friend, and her many l1indnesses are
remembered by scores who have accepted
her help. She has taken interest in her pupils
outside of their education and cultivated
them, and in return has their gratitude and
appreciation. She has seen the public
schools broaden and grow, and she has kept
pace with new methods and progressive
ideas. Miss Anderson was one of the found
ers Of the free kindergarten; she has insti-
tuted classes and studies and been the prime
mover in many educational lines. She owns
comfortable double house on North Della
ware street just above North, bought with
her own earnings.

FLORISTS OF THE STATE.
Annual Convention at the StatehOuse
banquet Last Evening.

The horticultural room at the Statehouse
yesterday was filled with the finest speci-
mems of roses, carnations and other flowers
that are grown in the State. 1t was the
occasion of the annual meeting of the State
Florists Association, and the exhibit was a
competitive one, certificates of merit being
awarded to the best blooms and plants.
About twenty-five florists of the State were
in attendance, and the day was spent in an
unusually profitable and pleasant manner.
Beside the exhibit the regular business ses-
sion was held, and late in the evening came
banquet at the Commercial Club.
The most important discussion of the day
was relative to the holding of the fall
chrysanthemum show. The association has
reaped only encouragement from their
shows of the past, and it has become a Sc
rious question whether they should not be
discontinued. j. S. Stuart, president of
the association. opened the question in his
annual address He said that the florists
have placed the State in an enviable posi-
ton as to her ability to plan and carry out
a flower show of great magnitude. Now"
said he. when prosperity is increasing all
over the country and the pulse of the busi-
ness world is being filled with renewed
force and energy, when contentment and
domestic happiness abounds to larger ex-

Lord and Lady Sykes in 1875.

The affairs OF Lord and Lady Tatton
Sykes are matters of common discussion
these days. In the spring of 1875 party
from Indianapolis found itself on coast
steamer bound for Jaffa by way of Port
Said. Among the passengers were man
of nifty years, stupid and dull of manner.
and an unconventional young woman of
twenty. These two were attended by
courier and maid, who were apparently on
footing of intimacy with their master
and mistress. In fact, the mistress and
maid dressed alike, in gray gowns, with
bright Roman sashes about their waists.
The homogeneous party was the subject of
much interest On consulting the ships
list it was found to consist of Lord and
Lady Tatton Sykes and courier and maid.
One remark about them led to another
until it was rumored that his lordship had
recently married enc of the maids
at his English country seat. This
rumor was no doubt founded upon
her laGyship's lack of manner and
compcsuIe, which makes ii difficult TO
believe that she is of noble birth. During
a severe storm she had Mysteries. screaming
at the top of her voice and rousing every
body in the first cabin. But there was an
other side to her character. On arrival at
Jerusalem 1t was learned that an English
clergyman, one of the Cooks tourists, had
suddenly died, leaving his daughter alone.
Lady Tatton Sykes assisted her in every
way and arranged for her immediate re-
turn to England. She and her husband
seemed an il-assorted pair.

Mr.. McCuIIoch,s Emcient work.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
The announcement by Hon. George r.
McCulloch of his retirement as chairman
of the Republican state central commit
tee in the near future by reason of the
condition of his health, should be received
with genuine regret by the party through
out the State. Mr.. McCulloch not only pos
sesses the capacity of handling large en-
terprises of a business or political nature
to a marked degree, but he demonstrated
during the last campaign an ability to har-
monte political differences naturally aris-
ing in the party that few men possess. He
knew how to look after both the front
and the rear. His services as a member of
the committee during the late presidential
campaign were invaluable to the party, and
his promise of usefulness as a chairman
were no less flattering had he consented
to continue in that capacity, which seemed
to be the party wish.
