Jersey millionaire, died there yesterday
of brain fever brought on by smoking

named after him, and showed him
many pecuniary attentions.
Raining in Kansas.
ARKANSAS CITY, Kan., April 21.—A
heavy raiu has been falling for two
days. Grass needed it, and wheat and
oats would have been a failure if it had
not come soon. The wheat and oats
crops are now safe, and corn stands a
very fair chance. Most uf the peaches
are all right, and there will be a fair
crop. Before the rain water was get
ting scarce for stock in the territory,
and grass was making a very slow
growth. Now every water-hole will be
filled and the creeas running, and grass
will be good enough for stock to gain
on it.
Inside ofa Building Collapses.
PITTSBURG, April 21.—This after
noon a section of the first four floors of
a seven story building on Seventh
street, occupied by Tate & Myers,com
mission merchants, collapsed and was
precipitated into the cellar. Five per
sons were in the building at the time,
but were warned of the danger by the
cracking of the timbers in time to make
their escape. The building was erect
ed less than two years ago. It is sup
posed that th girder ou the fourth
floor supporting the section which fell
was defective. The loss was about
*30,000.
Shenandoah's Postmaster Short.
SHENANDOAH, Pa., April 12— A
postoffice inspector who has been here
during the past week examining the ac
counts of Postmaster Kindt has discov
a shortage of about thirteen hundred
dollars. The postmaster has made good
the deficiency, but in doiDg so he has
bankrupt himself. He is still in charge
of the office and declares that he does
not know what became of the money,
but that his brother and Charles E.
Warley, clerks, are responsible for it.
The latter resigned his position on A
pril 1, a week before the discrepancy
discoyered.
A LEGISLATOR THRASHED.
He Offers to Sell the Votes of Fellow
Members at Ridiculously Low Prices.
LANSING, Mich., April 21.—Repre
sentative Milo H. Dakin, of Saginaw,
found himself in pretty hot water last
evening in the state bouse of represent
atives. Dakin is a shingle inspector
and packer when not helping to run tire
state government, and ranksin tbehouse
as a labor representative. There is a
bill before the bouse to amend the char
ter of Saginaw. Dakin went to the
mayor of Saginaw a day or two ago
with a list of seventeen members of the
legislature who, he told the mayor,
would oppose the bill unless their votes
were bought for it. Opposite the name
of each member was bis alleged price
for his vote. The mayor said: "Ah,
Is that so?" and went back to Saginaw
to raise the money, as Dakin supposed.
Instead, however, he raised a different
kind of breeze about Dakin by inform
ing the members whose names were on
this list. They held an indignation
meeting, and about 5 o'clock last eve
ning Dakio was cornered in one of the
committee rooms and roundly thrashed.
The attention of the house was thus
and brought to Dakin, andlhelwtll proba
bly be expelled. The prices named by
Dakin for various members of bis list
were absurdly small, even if they were
purcbaseable representatives, and it is
claimed that what Dakin wanted was
to get the money from the mayor and
pocket it himself.
NEWSPAPERS IN 1887.
Geo. P. Rowell & Co., of New Y"ork,
will issne on Monday, May 2nd, the
Nineteenth Annual edition of their
standard publication, the "American
Newspaper Directory."
The new volume contains an exhaus
tive list ot all Class Publication so ad
mirably arranged that any one of the
three thousand papers represented there
can be readily referred to and all im
portant facts concerning it together
With its circulation rating, easily ob
tained.
The Newspaper Directory will be us
ed principally by Publishers, Advertis
es and Advertising Agents, but the]
vast fund of lmformation it contains
makes it valuable to persons of almost
every trade and profession. As a Ga
zetteer alone it is well worth the price
charged, 15.00, for it fully describes ev
ery townin which a newspaper is issued,
and few people care to know about any
place where one is not.
The number of newspapers "published
in the United States, Territtories(in
cluding Alaska) and Canada is put at
15,420; an increase of ssl in one year.
The growth of newspat>ers in some of
the Western States would be a matter
of wonder, if it were that this year is
no exception to the rule. In Kansas
the increase is s0 and in Nebraska 01;
while the Keystone State shows a small
er advance of 35 and the Buckeye State
of 30. Pennsylvania exhibits the larg
est in dailies, 17; Kansas in weeklies si,
and New York in monthlies, 42. Seven
States show a decrease, the most prom
inent instances being New Hampshire
and Virginia six each. The whole vol
ume shows that great care lias been tak
en to sustain its reputation as the most
comprehensive work ot the kind yet
published, ai d to insure accuracy in ev
ery detail. Anything less than a com
pendium of American newspapers
and periodicals would surprise those
who are familiar with the former efforts
of this firm, who are so well known as
the oldest, largest and best known of
all the American Advertising Agencies.
THK MINISTERIAL ( AMUDATK.
What lie Would l>o and Say in the
Pulpit.
I was traveling up the Ohio Kiver
one day last fall on the packet Fairy.
The day was very cold, A paity of us
were sitting around the stove in the
lower cabin, while the boat landed at
some little way-side stopping place to
take on freight and passengers.
Presently a tall, gaunt old man, evi
dently a new arrival, came up, with his
carpet bag in hand, which he deposited
between his knees a lie sat down and
spread out his long knotty lingers be
fore the door of the stove to warm
them.
Casting his keen, gray eyes around
him as he did so,he suddenly espied the
thin, cadaverous-looking young fellow,
dressed all in black broadcloth, who
was sitting next to me iu the circle
around the stove.
'Why, howdy, LemmelV the old man
said in the heartiest way. ' I hardly
know yer. How's the folks V
'F-pr-pr-pretty w-w-w-well, M-M-Mr.
J-J-Joln:sou,' replied the young man,
stuttering miserably, as lie submitted
to the hearty hand-shaking which the
old man had reached across several of
us to effect.
'Fiuished your schooliu'yet V inquir
ed he.
'Y-y-yes s-s-s-sir,' replied the young
man, with difficulty.
'Waal, what bizness air ye in now
asked the old fellow, eying the dress of
h>s young friend curiously.
•I-I-I'm st-st-st-studyieg for t-the
m-ni-miuistry.'
'Phctc— a !' exclaimed the old man,
in a low whistle of intense surprise.
'Waal, now, Lemtnel,' he said after a
while, 'that's about the last line uv biz
ness I'd a ever thought of attempting
to tackle ef I'd a-been in vore ulace.
What ever put it into yore head ?'
'I-I-I had a v-ve-very st-st-strong ca
ca-call, Mr. Jo-Jo-Jo-Jolinson,' explain
ed the young man, with a slight flush
on his pale, weak face.
'You migtta-hada dozen calls,' re
turned the old man, dryly, 'but ef I'd
a-been you I'd be switch'.>:d ef I'd a-come.
An "audible smile" ran around the
circle at the old man's wit, which lie,
however, never noticed. His young
friend made no response to his last sug
gestion, while he contiuued in a dry,
anxious tone :
'lt beats coe, Lemrael, to know how
you 'loir, even coucedin' the call, tc get
through with the rest of the bizness.'
' Th-tfu L-fjrd will p-p-put the w-words
inio m-my m-m-mouth,' gasped the
poor young fellow, stuttering worse
than ever under the keen gray eyes of
the old man.
'He'll have to do more 'an that, son
ny,' said the old man pityingly. 'After
He's put 'em tliar, blamed if He won't
hec to send somebody else eilowj tj pull
'em out.'
The ministerial candidate retired to
his state-room, and was seen 110 more.
Working the Highways.
In many sections of the East, there is
growing dissatisfaction with the old
method of working roads, 1. e., where
each resident along a certain "beat,
or road-section, works out his assessed
time thereon. The general result of
such labor is poor ioads. People now
adays want something better than is
furnished by the old road system, and
the advent of improved road-working
implements shows that better roads are
easily obtainable.
The prevailing arguments against the
contract system are that persons not
owning real estate or personal property
are, of course, exempt from taxation,
and consequently from road-working ;
under the old system they are assessed
one day at least,and must work or com
mute. And taxpayers, already burden
ed, it may be, object to the payment in
cash for labor which they can perform
themselves without great inconven
ience. Here the objection to the old
system may be mentioned, viz., that
labor on the highway is one thing, on
the farm another. Everyone knows
that, as a rule, the day's work on the
road is "cut short at both ends that
boy's labor often counts as man's labor;
that the roads are worked once in the
spring for all the year, and at a time
when snch work may not be .nost need
ed ; that the day is often nothing more
nor less than a holiday. Jf perfect
roads are the desideratum, the old sys
tem fails to furnish them, or only in
exceptional cases. The contract sys
tem is more expensive until the road
beds are once put in good order, then
less money need bo expended upon
them. And yet, if a man values his
time and labor at the low price of one
dollar per day, the expense
largely overcome. When the contract
system is adopted and oncefaiily tried
it is not often rejected. -—American Ag
riculturist/or May.

What the Future Will he lo those who
Refuse to Relieve.
Is this country unconsciously tinder
going a wonderful change,is the change
to take place before we are aware of the
fact, and when it has taken place will
we wonder why wo did not see it before
it was too late V
Those that see the changes early a
vail themselves early, and thereby re
ceive benetlt.
The shrewd iron man sees the iron
interest transferred from Pittsburg
and Pennsylvania to Birmingham, Ala
bama, and in his far-sightedness sees
the furnaces in Pennsylvania torn down
and deserted for this new and prolitle
Held. It is claimed by the iron men of
Alabama that the low price at which
iron can be produced there will revelu
tionizo the iron interests of the world.
We have seen the grain growing
centres of this country shifted to the
West. We have seen the pork-packing
industry tlit from Cinciunatti to Chica
go, and fjom thence to Kansas City and
Omaha. Southern cotton mills under
sell New England and American mark
ets, and challenge the woral.
We have seen and are seeing all this
take place before our eyes, and know
that other changes are taking place
equally as prominent, and we wonder
as we behold them. Ten years ago the
insurance companies only required an
analysis ot the tlutds when thev were
taking insurance for very large a
mounts. To-d.iv no tlrst-class compa
ny will insure any amount unless they
have a rigid analysis of the tluids pass
ed, and if any traces of certain disord
ers are apparent, the application is re
jected. In their reports they show that
the death of sixty out of every 100 peo
pie in this country, is due either direct
ly or indirectly to such disorders. The
Brompton Hospital for Consumptives,
London, England, reports that sixty
of every 100 victims of consumption al
so have serious disorders of the kid
neys.
Among scientists for the treatment
of this dread malady the question is
being discussed :
"Is not this disorder the real cause
of consumption ?"
Ten years ago the microscope was
something seldom found 111 a physi
cian's otlice ; now every physician of
standing has one, and seldom visits his
patients without calling for a sample
of tluids for examination.
Why is all this V Is it possible that
we of the present generation are to die
of diseases caused by kidney disorders,
or shall we master the cause by Warn
er's safe cure, the only recognized
specific, and thus remove the effects ?
All dealers keep it. It is within the
reach of all. It is established beyond a
doubt that a very large percentage ot
deaths in this country are traceable to
diseased kidneys. For years the pro
prietors of Warner's safe cure have
been insisting that there is no sound
health where the kidneys are diseased,
and they enthusiastically press their
specific for this terrible disorder upon
public attention. We are continually
hearing its praises sounded.
This means wonders !
Cannot the proprietors of this great
remedy, who have been warning us of
the danger, tell us how to avoid a dis
ease that at first is so unimportant,and
is so fatal in its termination ? Are we
to hope against hope, and wait without
our reward ?
The most of all changes,
however, that we of to-day can note in
this radica' change of view to which
the public has been educated : It was
formerly thought that the kidneys were
or very small importance; to-day,we b* -
lieve, it is generally admitted that there
can bt 110 such thing as sound health
in any organ it they are in the least de
gree deranged.
Economic Way of Raiding Potatoes.
A most successful way of raising po
tatoes in the South, the America! Agri
culturist says, is by planting tliera in
what is called a "lazy bed," which is
done by applying manure very heavily
in the rows and then covering the whole
bed with straw, leaves, corn-stalks, or
any coarse litter. By this plan, no
working or weeding is required and the
growth is not stopped by the first hot,
d:y weather, as the ground is kept cool
and moist, which gieatiy increases the
3 ield of the potatoes and makes them of
much better quality.
A good plan, by which several objects
are combined, is to select a field which
i 3 to be sown to wheat next fall, and
fence in as much as will make a good
siled feeding lot for cows and sheep.
In this enclosure feed all the corn
stalks. The following spring take the
adjoining land for potatoes; plow well ;
then lav off three or four rows at a time
0.1 the side furtherest from the cow
prn. Make tne furrows deep; drop the
potatoes at good distances apart, and
fill the furrows entirely up with coarse
manure, keeping 011 in this way until
all are planted. The object in planting
only a few rows at a time is to avoid
running the manure wagon over the
furrows, as this would destroy them.
After the field is all planted, rake with
a hay or stalk-rake the stalks from the
cow-pen 011 the pot ito plot, so that the
covering will be a foot thick after set
tling. 1 his is all that is needed until
harvest, when the st alks are raked frooi
the potatoes and thinly spread oyer the
wheat field, to be plowed under. The
potatoes can be gathered without dig
ging, as they will either be 011 the top
of the ground or in the loose manure.
In the South, potatoes raised in this
way may be left in the ground all win
ter and gathered in perfect condition in
the spring.
The conditions of success with pietli
od are, to use plenty of manure and to
have the mulch at least a foot thick.
Nothing is so good for a mulch as corn
stalks, and in raising potatoes in a gar
den, the stalks may be piled on the edge
of the patch in gathering, and may be
used for several years.

Wt quote the following anecdote from
••ltecolieetions of Secretary Stantoii,"
by a clerk of the War Department, in
the Century : "When Mr. Stanley, of
North Carolina,was appointed Military
(inventor of Ids State, ihe Secretary of
Wat caused to he llilcd out one of the
blank forms used for notifying military
nominees of their appointment toofllce
by the President,and when lie had sign
ed il and caused the seal of the Depart
ment of War to lie attached to it. he
concluded that it would be well to have
the sign manual of the President altlxed
to the instrument, lie sent the coin
mission to the White House, with the
requert that the President would sign
and return it immediately. Mr. Lin
coln took the document and read it
carefully, and then began turning aud
twisting it about, its though. In search
of something. At last lie handed it to
the hearer and said, Ironically :
"Did Mr.Stanton say where 1 was to
put my signature V'
"No sir,'' replied the astonished
clei k.
"Can you tell me," asked the Presi
dent, "whereabouts on this piper I am
to put my signature V"
The clerk looked at the commission
and saw the ample signature of Mr.
Stanton immediately at the foot of the
Ik.dy of the instrument, with the coun
ter-signature of the Adjutant-General
to the left. lie also saw a neat, snug
looking white space beneath the sign
manual of the Secretary of War which
Mr. Lincoln might have occupied to
advantage had he seen tit, hut the cleik
was politic and replied : '1 don't *ee
any place provided for your signatuie,
Mr. President,' and was proceeding to
explain how the omission obviously
came about when the President inter
rupted him and said in a dignilied tone:
'Take the paper hack to the Secretaiy
of war, with my compliments, and say
that the President will promptly sign
any proper commission that may lo
sent to him for Governor Stanley or
anybody else.''
(■uiiiiug Our Children's Confidence.
Few mothers really think what a
grave error they are committing in re
pelling '.he confidence of their little
ones. The time may come, all too soon,
when the children who are thus repell
ed, will refuse to have conlldenee in
mama, when she would give all she
holds dear in the world to gain it. Chil
dren must hive somebody to talk to
and conti )c in, and if mother does not
have time to listen to them, is it any
more than natural that they will seek a
contidant elsewhere ? And who knows
what wrong and harmful counsel and
advice that person may give your boy
or girl ? You may say jierhaps, that
your hoy or girl never cared to confide
in you; they always preferred out
side confidants. If so, mother?, whose
fault is it ? A mother is her natural
coufidaut, just as much as [she is ):<r
child's natural protector. And if her
child turns from her to seek counsel
from others, then in nine cases out of
ten, the mother must have wo.fully
failed in her duty.
In their baby days mama is always
ready with her sympathy, when they
come to her with little grievances or
troubles. If she is always ready to
point out the right way to the small
lads and lassies, to listen to the why
and wherefore of each mistake, failure
or success, if she is always a ready and
willing sharer of all their little secrets,
then her children will a'way consider
her w hat she should t>e, t tie very best
confidant they could have in all the
world. And the child that confides in
mother all his or her secrets, whether
they be great or small, is safe. For
what hoy or girl can go astray when
they have nothing hid from mama ?

Smoking Under Water.
Says an expert swimmer in the New
York Sun : "It looks very strange to
see a man go under water with a light
ed cigar in his mouth, smoke calmly at
the bottom, and come to the surface
with the cigar burning as nicely as ir
lie were smoking in his easy chair. Ap
parently lie defies all natural laws, but
of course, he dosen't. It is a simple
trick, hut it requires practice. Justus
I throw myself backward to go down, i
llip the cigar end for end with my
tongue and upper lip, and get the light
ed end in my mouth, closing my lips
water tight around it. A little slip
pery elm juice gargled before going in
prevents any accidental burning of the
mouth. Going slowly down backward,
I 'ie at full length on the bottom of the
tank and hloiv smoke through tip? cut
end of my cigar. Just as I reach tlio
surface again, another flip reverses the
cigar, and there 1 am smoking calmly.
The reversing is done so quickly that
nobody notices it."
