LAST:OE-THE BARONS.5

Psculiarities OF SLY Henry Hawkins
Recently Retired From the Bench.
Sir Henry Hawkins, the English Judge
who recently resigned at the age of 81,
was the last of the barons, although no
only held the title for one day. In 1876
Mr.. Hawkins was appointed by the
crown as successor to Baron Blackburn
and the court circular named him
Baron Hawkins, but the next dav
this was corrected, on the ground that
the law barons had been extinguished
by the Judicature act Accordingly Jus
tlce Hawkins became, by the usual cere-
mony of knighthood, Sir Henry Haw-
kins.
The former judge had no sympathy
with offenders, and if ever he allowed
mitigating circumstances to influence
him he invariably apologized for his
lenity. In the great Tichborne trial he
was retained for the prosecution, and it
has been said that he was rewarded for
his conduct Of that case, and that he
would never have been a Judge had it not
been for the strange influence the oppo-
nents of the claimant possessed over the
government. Sir Henry's tastes were
plebeian, his companions men who fire.

COLUMBUS DUST HERE.
EOwan Makes Startling Claim About
the DiscOverer's Ashes.

J. S. Browning of Sioux City, Ia,
claims to have positive evidence that
Columbus remains are in the United
Estates.
Mr.. Browning was a member of the
bureau of awards at the Worlds fair
and says he learned the particulars dur
ing the exposition of the deal by which
the explorer s dust passed into the hands
of one of the best known collectors in
America. He declines to give the lat
ter's name, but says a Spaniard offered
him the remains for So, 900 while with
the fair. The proposition was accepted,
and the collector now has the dust either
in New York or Washington.
He did not buy the relics, however,
which were inclosed in Christopher s
casket when he was buried. Mr. Brown
ing thinks the purchaser will soon make
public the fact of his possession of the
dust. He says there is no doubt concern
ing the genuineness Of the remains. -

A Forerunner of the Most
Fatal Disease.


Though its offensive features
are sometimes almost unbearable,
few people are aware of the danger
of which Catarrh is the forerun-
ner. Catarrh invariably leads to
Consumption, Growing worse and
worse each winter, those who RELY
upon the usual treatment of
sprays, washes and inhaling mix
lures find that it is impossible to
check the disease with these local
applications which only reach the
surface. The offensive discharge
increases all the while, causing a
feeling of personal defilement, and
gets deeper and deeper until it is
onlyE question of short time
until the lungs are affected.
The Importance of the proper
treatment can therefore be readily
appreciated. But no good what
ever can be expected from local
applications, as such treatment
never did cure Catarrh, and never
will.

BIG WHEAT FIELD,
COYerse 20, 900 Acres. and 1t Required Six
Months to Plant 1t.

Months to Plant 1t.
There Is a wheat field in California
containing 5000 acres, near Clovis,
that state. The planting of this i'm.
mense tract began the middle of last
July, and was completed by the first
of January. To do the work 200 men
and more than 1000 horses and several
tons Of big machinery were necessary.
An idea of the immensely of the field
may be obtained from an article in the
San Francisco Call, which says:
"SuppOse the field was one mile wide
and forty miles long, and the one man
had a double gang plough cutting a
furrOw tWenty-fOur inches wide. He
would start at corner of the field in
San Francisco and plough south to-
ward San Jose, distance of forty
miles. Then he would come back and
cut another turrOw to San Francisco,
making eighty miles for the round
trip. This amount of work would only
be tiny scratch four feet wide along
one side Of the 40-mile field, and the
process would have to be repeated at
least l, 300 times, making total dis.
lance of about 105 900 miles. Suppose
that the ploughman worked at the rate
of twenty miles a day. To get over
the los, 900 miles would take ,25O days.
TO plant would take about the same
time, making totas of 1O,5OO days, or
nearly thirty years. 1t would be like
spending lifetime, and the distance
travelled would be equivalent to going
around the world four times. And all
