MADE KAISER INDIGNANT.

There is a curious reason for the
order which the kaiser has just is
sued to the effect that the colors of
regiments are to be taken from their
cases only when on the most impor-
tant occasions. The flags of the
German army are in a deplorable
condition, even the new ones, for the
colonies of regiments which have
had new colors given them of late
years to replace the old ones which
went through the Franco-Prussian
war hated parading with brand-new
colors, as if the regiment had never
been in action. They winked at the
subalterns who slit the new flags
and gave them the dilapidatted air
of the old colors. But the emperor
was furious at this imitation, and so
he has had the sham glories put back
into the cases.

Social Unrest.

Hon. j. W. Wadsworth, Jr.,
speaker of the New York General
Assembly, seems too recognize our
national mania of unrest and eX-
claims, "lt is terrible death to
be governed to DEATH" and un-
doubtedly sees to many laws and a
consequent national discomfort.
When we study carefully this
social unrest, we find that it is an
inherited disease. The spirit and
psychic unrest of the American
nation, relative to the living prin-
ciples of man, is partly due to our
migratory and almost instructive
habit of discomfort. A habit once
formed, nursed and cherished be-
comes the second nature of man,
and only manly resolution and
firm self control can subdue it.
The elements causing this nation
al social unrest are not due to use
less legislation and dead letter
laws only. The true cause of con-
ten,, satisfaction and success lies,
as Cardinal Gibbon recently re-
marked, in the fulfiIlment of duty,
hence, as His Eminence further
stated, "No citizen Of the United
States should be drone in the
social hive"

There ls no material difference
in the wheat prospect from that
reported by the official spond.
ents one month ago, the prospect
tor the state as d whole being now
estimated at 80 per cent compared
with average, a gain of one point
over the estimate of July 1st.
This is far below the excellent
prospect of one year ago, but,
in computing the general average
prospect for the state as u whole,
consideration must be given the
very low prospect reported from
some northwestern counties,
which tends to reduce the general
average for the state. AT this
date last year there was marked
uniformity in the percentage esti-
mates on wheat--not a country In
the state reporting the prospect
at less than 80 per cent,-while in
this report the estimates range
from 28 per cent. in Auglalze
county to 81 per cent. in Madison
county.
The harvest has been unusually
late, the report showing that in
comparison with last year it has
been retarded about two weeks.
Where threshing has been com
pleted the correspondents general.
ly report the yield and quality of
the grain as satisfactory. In
many sections heavy rainfalIs
have followed cutting, and there
is some complaint of damage to
wheat in shock. Threshing will
soon be completed, when the act
ual product of this years. harvest
can be estimated with approxi-
mate correctness.
Oats show further decline from
last month 8 estimate, the pros
pect being now reported at II per
cent. compared with an average.
The prospect for the potato crop
is estimated at 81 per cent. com
pared with an average. There is
some complaint of blight, also
damage by rot.
The past month was very favor
able to the growing corn and the
crop is greatly improved over
one month ago.
Fruit prospects are very dis
couraging, being estimated as
follows; Apples % per cent.
peaches 23 per cent. pears 2 per

ANIMALS THAT SLEEP STANDING

Among the animals that we know
do not lie down to sleep are the ass,
the mule, the elephant, and most
other thick-skinned animals, such as
the rhinoceros, the hippopotamus,
etc. Most birds sleep standing ON
one foot with the head tucked under
the wing. Toads sleep sitting.
Monkeys, apes and chimpanEees
