AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

Senator Hale has been distributing among his constituents in Maine ccp- ies of al agricultural department pub GcatiOn called "The Diseases of Cat tle." The book has been very popular with the farming population of the Pine Tree State, and letters came in large numbers to the senator, asking for more copies. MT. Hale was glad to supply all the inquiring farmers.
 The other day, however, there came a letter which capped the climax It was from constituent who evidently does not keep himself posted on the duties of a law maker at Washington. Complimenting Senator Hale ca his authorship of such an admirable book as that on "The Diseases of Cattle" he continued to state that he had a very sick bossy and, describing the ailment, begged the senator to pre- scribe treatment
 Herbert M. Heath of Augusta, the quickest man at repartee before the Maine bar, has been at the capitol for two days. He is here in the interest Of a romantic old war claim of about $77,00O held by an aged man of Gar diner, Me, on account of the destruc- tion of 8 wagon train of supplies in Texas at the outbreak of civil strife.
 Just before Mr. Heath came to Washington he betook himself to the headwaters of the Kennetec river, where he met some guests from Hal lowell, city near Augusta. To one of the ladies in the party he declared that he was there entirely for rest. Later in the day the Hallowell people observed a man returning from a climb up the mountain side, and show ing unmistakable signs of fatigue He was dressed in cap pulled well over his face and genuine woodman's garb As he came nearer the gentleman was recognized as Mir. Heath.
 Why" exclaimed the lady, "c3n this really be you? I thought you came here to rest.''
 "So did" was the quick response. 'I've rested twenty times.''
 The Texas republicans are now ac- quainted with the distributor of pat ronage in the Lone Star state, after the nomination of George Lewis Lie bricht as United States marshal for the western district. He is no other than State Chairman Green, the son of Hetty Green, known far and wide for his great riches. State Chairman Green and National Committeeman Grant have been in a continual clash as to who should be the patronage dictator. State Chairman Green offer ed the olive branch, but National Com mitteeman Grant continually replied nay" The factions refused to agree, even at the request of the president, and the refusal ended in the, over throw of the national committeeman.
 Out of the vast store of experience which has come to Representative Grow in his long life there can aI- ways be drafted a bit of interesting history. For instance, it may not be sensTally known Lhat President Lin coin always carried his memorandum papers in his hat.

NOTES

To those unacquainted with it, irri- gatiOn seems a difficult science to master. With the aid of books now published it is made very simple, so that little practice may get all the knowledge necessary. As matter of fact there are now cheap text books for almost every special line of horti- culture and any one who sets out as a specialist in this or that line of work should secure these books and study them during the winter time when other duties are not so pressing.
 At the recent Ohio state horticul- tural meeting Professor Green urged the planting of York Imperial and Jonathan apples for dessert purposes. more than other varieties in the Cleveland market this winter. In stead of planting so many Ben Davis with which to surfeit the market fif- teen or twenty years hence we believe the man who has a good commercial orchard of York Imperial will make the most mo-ey.
 The agricultural department of the government has decided to try the ex- pertinent of planting large quantities of young evergreens in the arid re- gions and deserts of the southwest, notably in Texas, Arizona and Okla homh, and the Douglass nursery com pany of Waukegan, Illinois, has been given three years contract to fur nish thousands of young trees. Much of this confer stock origina ed, in Colorado ard was gathered there years ago by old man Douglass, now dead and gone. From the parentage stock thus secured he was enabled to raise seed with which to propagate millions of seedlings which Uncle Sam now wants.

FALSE ENTRIES IN THE BOOKS
Peculiar Methods Were in Vogue in a
 Defunct New Hampshire Bank.

Manchester, N. H., Jan. 13.-As the result of hearing in suit brought by Receiver Arthur M. Heard of the National Bank of the Commonwealth against the bondsmen of the former president, J. c. Moore, to recover $10, GOO, the amount of their bond, it de- velops that remarkable methods of doing business existed in that institu- tion prior to it's failure in 1893. The evidence shows that fraudulent entries were made in the books of the Com monwealth bank and Derryfeld Saw ings bank, now insolveat. Although the finance committee of the directors approved of many loans made to President Moore and concerns with which he was connected, on worthless notes, it has been shown that they were not aware of the methods in vogue.
 Dr. Moore is now in the state pris on and ex-Cashier Merrill of the Com monwealth bank died in Buenos Ayres a fugitive from justice. Receiver Heard claims that Dr. Moore owes the latter bank $75,00O.

The other day MT. Grow related a story about Lincoln. which illustrated two phases of the martyr presidents character. MT. Grow, then speaker of the house, had gone to the president to ask the appointment of friend as a judge in one of the territories. The president made a note of the request A few days later, when MT. Grow called at the White house, not about the judgeships, but upon another mat ter, MT. Lincoln at once began to apol- ogize. 'Mr. Speaker" said he, 'I meant to appoint your friend to that judgeship, but a woman came in here with nine small children and one at the breast, and pleaded me out of it. :"
 ''The family to which MT. Lincoln referred,' said MT. Grow, had been driven from their home in the south because of their Union sentiments, and this incident illustrates the kindly character of Lincoln's heart. While we were talking, however, MT. Lin coln said that he would still attend to my matter, and started to put down my friends name. He went to his hat, which was filled with papers, and after remarking that he had a queer way of doing things, began fumbling until he found blank sheet. l told the president that if his hat should blow off a lot of state secrets would be scattered, but he only smiled, wrote down the name, and said that he knew where to find it when the time to consider the matter came around"
 The tall and lean Johnson of Indi- ana can say sharp and cutting things as easy as canary bird can sing.
 In the house the other day MT. John son wanted to engage in controversy with MT. Landis, who had the floor. Mr. Landis, however, declined to be interrupted on the ground that he could not occupy more time.
 'But your time has been extended" said Johnson.
 "Yes,' admitted Landis, tThe house has been too kind to me-"
 'I think it has," instantly respond ed Johnson, with such evident sheer ity that even Landis joined in the laughter.

Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has
been twitted and berated unmeri-
fully by a number of newspapers
and notably so by the News and
Courier for his outspoken advocacy
of the Nicaragua canal project.
They have made faces at him and
called him names and held him
up as little short of crazy. And
yet what incalculable value that
canal would be to US in a naval
and military point of view if we
had built it some years ago. How
easily and quickly the Oregon
could have been transferred from
the Pacific to the Gulf. How
easily an expedition could be sent
through it from New Orleans or
some other Gulf port to the relief
of our Asiatlc squadron under
Admiral Dewey. All these things
come home to US in time OF war,
and it is likely that we will profit
by the lesson when peace returns.
1t shows, too, that Senator Morgan
has more farseeing craftsmanship,
not only about this but some other
questions as we'll, wrapped up in
his cranium than ali the little
scribblers combined who deride
him.-Anderson Advocate.

Terrific Hail Storm.

The most terrific hail storm ever
seen by our oldest people fell in
Elberton Wednesday evening about
s O'Clock. Many of the stones
were as large as lemonr, and they
fell fast and furious for 40
minutes. Trees were stripped OF
their leaves and fruit, flower yards
and gardens and orchards were
ruined and hundreds of chickens
were killed. There was not a
piece of glass left in the skylights
of Orr's photograph gallery, and
he was badly damaged. The
skylighrs of the Gholston Inns
sample rooms Jared no better.
Longs conservatory was badly
damaged by the large stones, and
we don't believe there is a single
glass covered flower pit in The town.
Hard rain fell all the while and
the streets were literally flooded,
as the water came too fast to bs
conveyed away through the cul-
verts. We are glad to learn that
it did not extend over an area
more that two miles square, and in
some places was not so severe.
All vegetation is damaged badly
within the territory of the storm,
and nature will have to assert all
of her recuperative powers to
bring forth a crop of any con-
siderable proportions.-Elberton
(Ga. Tribune, May 20.

General Butler s Appointment.

The appointment of ex-senator
Butler to be a major general in the
volunteer army is the best military
appointment that the president
has made. General Butler is by
nature soldier; he was one of
the best sent by the South to the
late war and he is better fitted to
command a division than any liv-
ing x-Confederate general.
In war times men of M. G.
Buffers military genius are in

army and the country who are
lucky in the appointment of
M. c. Butler. His new honors
do not make him a greater soldier
than he was already conceded to
lie by veterans, North and South
