The Tribulations of “Going to Mill” In the Old Fashioned Way. Scraps of History. [Correspondence New York Sun.] Not favoring Mr. Cleveland’s candidate at all, for I believe him to be incompetent for the place and in bad hands, still I regret that this matter about his relations to women has been started, because it seems to me a blow a little “below the belt,” to use a sporting phrase. But it has been started, and now the tone of the papers supporting him, for example that of the Boston Herald, admitting the main facts to be true, and then saying that they are of no consequence, will do him very great harm, especially with the Irish, because chastity in women is peculiarly an Irish virtue. There are hardly any Irish divorces, and they emphasize that virtue by a comparison with English statesmen, where unlawful connection between the sexes is very largely a characteristic, and has been through English history, and a vice only checked by the strong domestic virtue of their Queen. Beaconfield’s freedom from this vice was one of the causes of the almost unchanging affection of the Queen toward him. The late Lord Chief Justice of England notoriously had illegitimate children in his own house, but he was never presented to her Majesty: If I had been conducting a campaign against Cleveland I think I should have made more out of his being a hangman. Far be it from me to say that a man who is a hangman should not do his duty, or that it is any disgrace for him to do his duty as an executioner. Where I should have drawn the line is, What sort of a man is it that chooses to be a hangman? For a lawyer of a respectable law firm, doing a living business even, to desert that high and honorable profession for the purpose of being a public executioner, whatever the temptation of the emoluments of such office might be, is a wonder to me. To illustrate: It is a virtue when a man is a bootblack to have him black boots well. But when a member of the bar, of full age and strength, quits his profession. Anaheim Crist Mill!

The Tribulations of "Going to Mill" In the Old Fashioned Way. [Arkansaw Traveler.] There are few sights more suggestive of hopeful patience than that of a boy sitting on a bag of wheat that has fallen from his horse. He starts to mill joyously. The great event in the life of a young country boy is to be entrusted with a milling expedition. He sleeps very little the night before the journey, so active is his mind concerning the prospective trip. His father helps him on the horse, and he sits on the bag, as proud of his position as a king is of his throne. Every object along the lovely road interests him. He plucks the blooms from the dog-wood, and almost falls off when the horse reaches around to bite himself. He rides into the creek to let the horse drink, and spits at the minnows that swim around. After he goes up the bank on the opposite side of the stream, and pursues his course along the road, he notices with alarm than the bag is slipping to one side. He sits still further over to make the bag balance, but yet he is not satisfied, for it keeps on silling to one side, and at last it falls off. He can not restrain his tears, and though he knows that he cannot lift one end, yet he tags at the bag. The old horse snorts, nibbles the grass and lashes the boy across the eyes with his tail. "Whoo, you old fool!" and the disconsolate little fellow weeps afresh. He cannot leave the bag, fearful that some one will steal it. He must wait the tardy coming of a passer-by. He hears the sound of hoops and he listens intently, while the swelling buds of his hope burst into full bloom. He is doomed to disappointment, for the horse has no rider. Tennier rumbles in the distance and he will get wet. At last he sees an old negro coming along. His heart beats high with hope. The old negro steps aside and takes a by-path. The boy shouts. The old negro does not hear him. Another hour that seems an age, draws itelf along. He hears a wagon. He is almost wild with joy. The driver, though a surly fellow, lifts the bag up, and the boy, happy and thankful, is rescued just at a time when he does not think that he could stand it a moment longer. Believed To Be A Fiction. [Burlington Hawkeye.] Julian Arnold says that "his father, Edwin Arnold, wrote the most of 'Light of Asia' on the cuff of his shirt sleeve, while riding in the cars to and from his office. He says his father went into London every morning, and during the ride would write on his cuff with pencil. In the evening, after his return home, he copied the lines off on paper, and in this way wrote most of the poem." If Julian Arnold really said that, he probably told more lies in those few lines than he ever told in the same space before. This "cuff writing" business, dearly beloved, is beautiful, but rather gauzy fable that exists in the highly imaginative intellects of young journalists, of three or four days' experience in the dog fight and fire department of an able journalist. A cuff is an awkward thing to write on at best, and it is very self-evident. If I had been conducting a campaign against Cleveland I think I should have made more out of his being a hangman. Far be it from me to say that a man who is a hangman should not do his duty, or that it is any disgrace for him to do his duty as an executioner. Where I should have drawn the line is What sort of a man is it that chooses to be a hangman? For a lawyer of a respectable law firm, doing a living business even, to desert high and honorable profession for the purpose of being a public executioner, whatever the temptation of the emoluments of such office might be, is a wonder to me. To illustrate: It is a virtue when a man is a bootblack to have him black boots well. But when a member of the bar, of full age and strength, quits his profession to be a bootblack, there must be something wrong in his instincts or his capacity or reasoning. We have gone pretty low down sometimes heretofore in selecting Presidents, in matters of statesmanship and proper preparation for that office, but I think we ought to stop somewhere, however difficult it may be to find a line. I am like the barber who, when called upon by the butcher to shave him, said, "Nay, we only shave gentlemen at this shop." "Ah!" said the butcher, "but the baker has just gone out of here after having been shaved." "True," said the barber, "but we have to draw the line somewhere, and we stop at bakers." So I stop at Hayes. Much has been said in the independent papers, such as the Springfield Republican, the Evening Post, and some Democratic papers, in excuse for Mr. Cleveland, citing the conduct of Hamilton, and commending the bravery with which he met a like charge. They mistake history. The charge against Hamilton was that one Barrymore, who was a Treasury official when he was Secretary, was kept in office by Hamilton as a reward for the favors of his wife. A mere charge against Hamilton that he had a mistress would never have been answered by him because, after the manner of that day, he would have felt that it did not touch his honor; but the accusation that he used the public treasury to pay for his amours was one that he would not abide. Therefore he published that famous pamphlet, extracts from which will be found in Hildreth's History of the United States, in which, in short, he admitted that the husband was an officer under him, but declared that that was only because he was a good officer, and that his appointment had nothing to do with Hamilton's relations with his wife, for which he asserted, he paid in good hard cash, and produced the original receipts of Mrs. Barrymore for those payments, so ill composed and badly spelled that they bore evidence of their gentinness on their face. All America commended the bravery of Hamilton's defence, as all England applauded the Prince of Wales when he testified as co-respondent in Lady Mordaunt's divorce case, that his relations with her were merely Platonic. But Mr. Cleveland has not made this brave defence, but perhaps he will in his letter of acceptance. It is to be noted, however, that Mr. Hamilton never offered himself for the suffrages of the people after defiance. Nor is Gen. Jackson's case a parallel; and I am ashamed of Democratic editors defaming Jackson in order to make a defence for Governor Cleveland. Jackson's case, even according to the Federal papers of that day, wherein they called him a bigamist and adulterer, had no element of personal dishonor. The facts were these: Captain and Mrs. Robords had quarrelled and separated, living in Kentucky. Robords went to Virginia, and through one of his relatives, who was a member of the Virginia Legislature, he got an act passed divorcing Eureka! Eureka!

Anaheim Asia' on the cuff of his shirt sleeve, while riding in the cars to and from his office. He says his father went into London every morning, and during the ride would write on his cuff with pencil.

If Julian Arnold really said that, he probably told more lies in those few lines than he ever told in the same space before. This "cuff writing" business, dearly beloved, is a beautiful, but rather gauzy fable that exists in the highly imaginative intellect of young journalists, of some three or four days' experience in the dog fight and fire department of an able journal. A cuff is an awkward thing to write on at best, and it is very seldom that a newspaper man is so reduced for stationery as to be compelled to write poems and leaders on his cuffs. Especially when the "concern" furnishes note books and lap tablets. When you hear a man telling how he took down a three-column speech at midnight, in a polling storm, on his cuff, ask him if he didn't see to write his notes by the jurid glare of his nose. The one is quite as probable as the other. No more of this "cuff" business, Julian. It does not need that any man should come all the way from England to tell us such stuff as that. We have some good old romances right here in America. Honestly, we never knew but one reporter who claimed to take all his notes on his cuffs. And we never saw him but once with cuffs on his wrist. And they were so dirty he couldn't make a legible mark on them with anything except a piece of chalk. Call up the next squash. Curl Your Mustache, [New York Sun.] At a late hour last night a young man left a chair in a fashionable up-town barber shop with his handkerchief to his month. "Cut him!" asked the next customer. "No; he's got his mustache in curlers." "Ehf" "He's got a mustache which naturally droops. He wants the ends to curl up, so we put a couple of these on it." The barber produced two bits of rubber tubing an inch long and a quarter of an inch thick. In one end was a hole with a small rubber ring through it. In the other end was a slit. "We roll the wet mustache around this tube, and after making one turn around all with the ring, slip it into the slit. That holds the hair in the curled position until morning, when he takes off the curler. The hair will stay in shape for a day or two. If applied often enough it makes a permanent cart. We charge twenty-five cents for a pair of earlors and five cents for applying them latest thing for mustaches." You have no right to pick a photographer's pocket, even if he has pictured it. It is to be noted, however, that Mr. Hamilton never offered himself for the suffrages of the people after that defence. Nor is Gen. Jackson's case a parallel; and I am ashamed of Democratic editors defaming Jackson in order to make a defence for Governor Cleveland. Jackson's case, even according to the Federal papers of that day, wherein they called him a bigamist and adulterer, had no element of personal dishonor. The facts were these: Captain and Mrs. Robords had quarrelled and separated, living in Kentucky. Robords went to Virginia, and through one of his relatives, who was a member of the Virginia Legislature, he got an act passed divorcing him from Mrs. Robords. After that divorce Gen. Jackson, not knowing that there was anything wrong about it, married Mrs. Robords, and she made him a good wife and a happy home. Afterward the Supreme Court of Virginia in another case decided that acts of divorce like Capt. Robords' were void because, among other things, the party charged was not, and never had been, a citizen of Virginia, and Virginia could make no law affecting her. Therefore she was still Mr. Robords' wife in law. Jackson was exceedingly distressed at the condition of things, of which he himself and his wife were innocent victims. He then applied for her to the Kentucky Legislature, where the parties resided, for a divorce, which divorce was granted by the Legislature, which had jurisdiction. This would not have been done if the Legislature had believed Mrs. Robords guilty of any wrong with Gen. Jackson. Such conduct would have been a full answer to her application. A divorce being granted, Jackson remarried her, and was her loving and faithful husband until her death, which he mourned through the rest of his life. What must be the stress of weather which will drive Democratic editors to revive this Federal slander against Jackson, without showing its utter groundlessness in fact! If Mr. Cleveland follows the example of Hamilton and "tells the truth," instead of asking other people to tell it for him, the people may pardon him and condone the offense, but I submit, not otherwise. Yours respectfully. A LAWYER, WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. Henry M. Stanley, now in Paris, declares that Congo, as a free State, will soon be recognized by the whole world. The State proposes to give open commerce to all nations, and expects to become a great federation of native chiefs, under control of a European and American Commission. Stanley states that he will shortly visit England and convert the English, who do not stand alone in opposition to his projects. He praised Debrasseau, the French explorer, who, he said, was destined to render great service to France. GAZETTE. AUGUST 23, 1884. Of History.

[Scientific American.] Every child living in the country has stood and watched the curious operation, and wondered what the lump was which he saw come up in the cow's throat, and then go down again after she had chewed it for a certain length of time. And perhaps he may have seen the anxiety and turmoil produced on a farm by the report that some one of the cows had "float her cud," and as the result of this excitement he may have seen the absurd attempt to "make a new cud," in the hope that the cow would by such means be restored to good condition. There is in the minds of a large proportion of readers of the Scientific American (which proportion simply means the community) so little correct understanding of the true nature of "chewing the cud," that a few words concerning it may not be amiss. A very large tribe of animals, of which sheep and cows are the only familiar examples, are called in works of natural history Rumiaantia because they all ruminate, they chew the cud. They do so because their peculiar organs of digestion require it; they can get their nourishment in no other way. They have, it is said in the books, four stomachs, but the statement is not strictly correct, for the entire digestion is done in a single one, that which is called the fourth, the other three being only places for preparatory work. When this unchewed food is swallowed it passes directly into the first stomach, to use the common term; but the drink which the animal takes goes straight past the entrance of the first into the second. These two serve only to soak or soften the coarse food. When the first has done what it can, the food passes out, of it into the second, and then the cow or sheep is ready to "chew the cud." The second stomach while busily at work in soaking the food, keeps it in motion, and gradually rolls it up into masses, so that in the small upper part there is formed an oblong solid lump of the size that we recognize. Everything Mississippi is following Georgia in the development of truck farming. Railroad building this year is only about sixty per cent of that offlast year. Forty-five thousand workers are engaged in the watch-making industry in Switzerland. Coal (size of tons and quality not quoted) is retailing for $3.20 a ton at Columbus, Miss. It is estimated that there are 28,000 locomotives in the United States, of a total value of $400,000. Gas wells are being successfully bored in and about Pittsburg Pa., and supplies obtained sufficient for all wants. The estimated corn crop of Nebraska this year is 120,000,000 bushels nearly 19,000,000 bushels greater than last year. American match manufacture is depressed by foreign competition because of the taking off of the internal revenue tax. Owing to successful fishing, the price of whalebone has declined, but is still at a respectable figure—about $12,500 a ton. Iron mills at Pittsburgh employ at present 7,000 men less than last year, and the depression is greater than for several years. There are much fewer business failures in England this year than last. In this respect America is a season behind the old country. A walnut log valued at $40,000 was recently brought from San Francisco to New Orleans, where it is to be sawed up and shipped North(?). The immense labor involved in the examination of real estate titles in New York has led to the business of insuring titles by a guaranty and trust company.

Robords and through one of his a member of the Virginia act passed divorcing them. English Railways. [Boston Herald.] In England—and the same is true of Continental railways—no freight car has more than four wheels to each track. Many of the passenger cars for suburban service on French roads are two-story affairs, the second floor seating as many passengers as the first, or perhaps, like Paris omnibus, the roof is designed to bear the largest traffic. Much more care is taken and attention given to the freight brakemen than on United States railroads, and on many lines these have little hoods, or elevated constructions like watch boxes, on the end of the freight car, from which the train may be braked and a good lookout kept, while the occupant is sheltered from the weather. In England the freight—or "goods"—vans are nearly all open, or platform-cars; with high soundings and end board, and each provided with a waterproof covering of large proportions, to be drawn over-in case of rough weather, the latter being the rule in that climate. On passenger trains the last car of the train is for the guard, and this is furnished with a brake, a primitive affair, working inside the car, requiring the strength of a young elephant to handle it successfully. The air brake is in use, worked from the locomotive, and also under the control of the guard from his van. The "guard" is conductor, brakeman and on ordinary trains sole train hand, the work at stations being done by a small army of "examiners," assistants, etc. The guard, as conductor, has nothing to do with the tickets of his passengers, although he is omnipotent in their seating, and belongs to the classes of EngThere are much fewer business failures in England this year than last.

There are seventeen quinine factories in the world— six in Germany, four in America, three in France two in Italy, and two in England. The annual production amounts to about 4,250,000 ounces. President Lincoln once listened patiently while a friend read a long manuscript to him, and who then asked: "What do you think of it? How will it take?" The President reflected a little while, and then answerd: "Well, for people who like that kind of thing I think that is just the Kind of thing they'd like." More than 100 tons of human hair are annually bought and sold. Four ounces is an average clipping from a human head; so that 100 tons represent the product of from 800,-000 to 1,000,000 heads. In Europe the heads of female criminals are shorn, and they supply a large market, but the greater part is bought by traveling peddlers. Between the ages of 15 and 40 a woman can grow about seven crops of hair. The Two Republics, printed in the City of Mexico, gives the following statistics regarding Mexico as approximately correct: The population of Mexico is 10,000,000, and there are 146 cities, 372 towns, 4,466 villages, 5 missions, 5,680 haciendas and 14,-605 ranches; besides 2,213 collections or groups of houses denominated "congregations," "barrios," "rancherias," etc. Value of private real estate: Rural,$773,000,000; private real estate in cities,$5,668,036,000; cattle of all kinds belonging to individuals,$126,000,000; property belonging to the nation,$40,000,000; total real estate, not including mines, coasts,bays,rivers,ect.,$3,549,660,000; agricultural products,$177,454,086; industrial products,$14,000,- The Mosquito. [London Sportsman.] We have long held the opinion that the mosquito is an unmitigated scoundrel who could give our own lively flea six stones and a beating over a long course; but we are now convinced. A gentleman has examined Mr. Mosquito under a microscope,and his description is to say the least,sstarting. It appears that in the "bill" of the little beast alone there are no fewer than five distinct surgical instruments. These are described as a lance,two meat saws,a shotton pump and a small Corliss steam engine. It appears that when a "sketeer" settles down to his work upon a nice tender portion of the human frame the lance is first pushed into the flesh,the two saws placed back to back,begin to work up and down to enlarge the hole,the pump is inserted and the victim's blood isiphoned up to the reservoirs carried behind,and finally,the complete cruelty of the performance,the Jackson's case a parallel; and Democratic editors defamate to make a defence for it.

You're A LAWYER. Key, now in Paris, destroys State, will soon be recog- nized a New York bank cashier. "Is that you, Mr. Richardson?" said the Frisco man, Richardson, somewhat startled, replied "that's my name, but I don't know you." "You are cashier of —— Bank New York?" said the Frisco man. "Yes, air." The Frisco man had nothing more to say, but followed the bank cashier up the street until he met an officer to whom he said,"officer, there goes a New York bank cashier. You better get onto him, he is a good ways from home, and you know bank cashiers are looked for by the police." The officer being up to arrested the progress of the cashier with "You are the cashier of a New York bank, I will have to take you in on suspicion." He was about to start for the lock-up with his man when the latter pulled on him the following credential: New York, August 5, 1894. Mr. Richardson, cashier of —— Bank New York, is hereby granted six weeks leave of absence. The banks of the bank have been examined and found correct." Signed by President and Board of Directors. On passenger trains the last car of the train is for the guard, and this is furnished with a brake, a primitive affair, working inside the car, requiring the strength of a young elephant to handle it successfully. The air brake is in use, worked from the locomotive, and also under the control of the guard from his van. The "guard" is conductor, brakeman and on ordinary trains sole train hand, the work at stations being done by a small army of "examiners," assistants, etc. The guard, as conductor, has nothing to do with the tickets of his passengers, although he is omnipotent in their seating, and belongs to the classes of English officials coming in contact with the public with whom a shilling goes a great way. When a passenger train arrives at a station all baggage marked for that station is hauled off the train upon the platform. There is no system on the part of the railway companies of checking or marking baggage to denote ownership, or to insure its falling into right hands eventually. As it lies in heaps upon the platform the individual pieces belong presumptively to the first claimants, and it is a somewhat singular fact that usually its claimants are the real owners, though there is no reason in the nature of the case why constant frauds should not be practiced in this connection. Possibly this result obtains because, like other classes on the "right little," tight little island, English thieves are "conservative," and have no notion of stealing out of the beaten tracks worn by their ancestors. A San Francisco recently from New York while on Montgomery street, recognized a New York bank cashier. "Is that you, Mr. Richardson?" said the Frisco man, Richardson, somewhat startled, replied "that's my name, but I don't know you." "You are cashier of —— Bank New York?" said the Frisco man. "Yes, air." The Frisco man had nothing more to say, but followed the bank cashier up the street until he met an officer to whom he said,"officer, there goes a New York bank cashier. You better get onto him, he is a good ways from home, and you know bank cashiers are looked for by the police."

A gentleman has examined Mr. Mosquito under a microscope, and his description is to say the least, startling. It appears that in the "bill" of the little beast alone there are no fewer than five distinct surgical instruments. These are described as a lance, two meat saws, a suction pump and a small Corliss steam engine. It appears that when a "skeeter" settles down to his work upon a nice tender portion of the human frame the lance is first pushed into the flesh, then the two saws placed back to back. begin to work up and down to enlarge the hole, then the pump is inserted and the victim's blood is siphoned up to the reservoirs carried behind, and finally, to complete the cruelty of the performance,the wretch drops a quantity of poison into the wound to keep if irritated. Then the diminutive blend takes a fly around to digest your gore,and makes tracks for a fresh victim, or, if the first one has been of unusually good quality, he returns to the same happy hunting ground. The mosquito's marvelous energy combined with his portable operating chest,make him at once a terror and a pest. How to Handle a Gum. [From the Burlington Hawkeye.] "The first thing you do when you go hunting with another boy is to guard yourself against accident: The best way to do this is to shoot the other boy before he has time to load his gun. Then take both guns to the nearest creek and throw them in. Throw the powder and shot in after them. If you have any matches about your clothes, throw them in also. Then start at once and go home as fast as you can. And if you are under eighteen years young,the chances are even with these precautions that you will get both legs at a section of your bank filled to the brim with bird shut before you reach home." How? Goodness only knows my son, I don't. I have often wondered how it did happen,但 I never could ascertain.I am not here to advance ingenious theories,bbut merely to state gold facts,and I know it to be a solemn truth,that a boy.with a single-barrel-gun twice as long as himself,can manage somehow to shoot himself in more places at once than a man can do with a seven-shooter revolver.And am I going to buy you a gun? Yes; am sometime in the long vacation when time hangs heavily on my hands,and I think I would enjoy entertaining you by picking shot out of your legs with a nut pick." But you will be very careful with it? So is a woman very careful with an umbrella,your son,and yet science is unable to account for the startling increase of one eyed man every summer."
