In speaking of the soldiers in the

Horne Throws Up His lob.

j. y. F. HUrne OF South Haven,
deputy state grain inspector, has re-
signed, and John Stetler has been ap-
pointed to succeed him. The change
went into effect yesterday. State
Grain Inspector Mckenzie Of Kansas
City, Kas., will be in Wellington to.
morrow, and will formally install Mr..
Stetle..
Horne's resignation is the result OF
the boycott OF the Wellington grain
dealers and millers. His appointment
was not satisfactory to the local grain
dealers, and they bought and shipped
their grain on outside inspection. As
the pay Of the inspector is guaged by
the amount Of business done, Horne's
salary did not justify him in remain
ing in Wellington all the time, and he
spent large portion Of his time at
South Haven. The grain men then
complained because Horne was not on
duty when needed. This had the
effect OF producing an order from the
state grain inspector directing that
Horne stay at his post Of duty In Wei
llngton, and resulted In his resigna-
tion, aslt was out Of the question for

the guests were assembling the Italian

choice selections. After short ad-

felicity. Not only Is the common look

wearing clothing of any other kind, and
centuries Of experiment have taught
them how best to make up the costly

none of the sheen usually associated

suited in the erroneous ideas as to their
composition. All the garments are
made in China and are only exported
for the personal use of Celestlals in

Owing TO their cost, however, they
are only purchased at long intervals,
each garment being of SO durable a
character that they are handed down

lieved, found II first In Mexico, and II
was introduced into France as well as
England.
A few daring Adventures appear to
have made trial OF II as an edible root
but II Is never an easy matter TO popu
larize new article of food, and the
tuber of the dahlla did not take ON. II
II had done so, the probability is that
we should never have troubled much
about its cultivation as a flower. We
