WASHINGTON’S BURIAL.

Scene at the Last Ke <ting Place at Mount Vernon. On Dec. 20, 1799, George Washington laid in his final resting place, and the Utetcr County G<tec.tte, published atKiqgstot, cN. Y., did honor to the great Chief in a write-up of which q, copy 4« gl ven below.

STATUE OF WASHINGTON AT THE CENTENNIAL EXPOSITION.

An English E-tbnnto of Washington. No nobler figure over stood in the forefront of a nation s life. Washington was grave and courteous' in address; his manners were simple and unpretending: his silence and the , serene calmness of hi’s temper spoke of a perfect self-mas-tery; but there was little in his outer bearing to reveal the grandeur of soul which lifts his figure, with all'the simple majesty of an ancient statue, out of the smaller passions, the meaner impulses of

His bootblack had a similar experience. It was his duty to polish the General’s huge boots all the way ud to the legs every morning and place them ,in front of the chamber door at a certain hour. “What did he do if they were nol shined to suit him?” asked Wise. ** “He lammed me over de hade wid ’er all through de hall,” was Yet his negroes were devoted to him. It was not ouly his slaves who suffered when he was angry, but any one else, regardless of color, wlio offended him. When asked if the report was true that one of his slaves had run away, taking with him certain important papers. “Sir,” said he, sternly? “I never had a slave to run away, ” Though a devout churchman and a genuine Christian, he could not always keep his powerful passions under control. While riding from church in his coach one hot day one of the young bloods of the county on horseback rode rapidly by him and’filled the air with clouds of dust Washingion, it is said, put .his head out of the window, and the young man'declared he “never got such a cursing in his life.”

The Death of Washington.

CONDITION OF WHEAT.

HOWJT 'LObKS IN DIFFERENT STATES. Prospects °ln Kansas Are Flattering, While Illinois and Indiana Give Evidence of a Condition Fully Up to the Average. [Special dispatches.] Springfield, Ill..: Reports received at the department of agriculture relative to the condition of winter wheat are by no means full, but so far as they go they indicate a seasonable average. There ;has been plenty of rain in the southern portion of the State and no disastrous freezing. In the central portion there Is a severe drought, but so far It has had no appreciable effect on the growing plant, which got a good start and has not been injured by freezing. Samples of the plant taken from the fields in Sangamon, Christian, and Macoupin and sent to the department were found to be full of flies, in the embryonic state. What effect they will have the future must determine. At present there' is nothing to indicate that the crop will not be an average one, but the condition may be very different a month hence. Indianapolis, Ind.: The latest advices from different parts of the State to the Board of Agriculture regarding the growing wheat indicate a very healthy condition, and the prospect is even bettor than it was at a corresponding time one year ago. In many parts of the State the growth is very rank, and in all the grain has rooted well and the sproyis are above the average in size and healthy iu appearance. While there lias been a good deal of wet weather throughout the State there have been but few washing rains, and the roots have been but little exposed. In some sections there has been some spewing owing to the recent heavy freeze, but as a general thing the earth was tolerably dry when the mercury fell to zero and the bad effects of the freeze were confined to a few sections, and in none was it so disastrous as was the cold weather of a later period last year. Columbus, Ohio: The Ohio Agricultural Bureau has issued no bulletin of crops since December. That bulletin showed as to wheat that the acreage sown last fall, as compared with the acreage of the year before stood 100 per cent. As to the condition of the soil at the time of seeding, fifty-four counties report it good, twenty-four counties fair, anu but ten counties bad. Topeka, Kan.: Reports received at the Agricultural Department from ninety as the 106 counties in the State, bring encouraging news regarding the wheat outlook. In four-fifths of the counties reporting the crop is in fine condition, better than ever reported before in the history of the State. The open winter and the frequent rains and snows have put the ground in splendid condition, and the growing wheat everywhere is advanced beyond the condition of any previous year at this time. The acreage is very large. Lincoln, Neb.: But very little winter wheat is raised in Nebraska. It is a little too far north, and as a rule the winters are a little too decided for the successful culture of this cerea'. The continued dry weather of last season, and even until late fall, was unfavorab'e to the seeding of this crop, and a less an a was sown than usual. The winter has been remarkably open, however, and the crop is reported to be looking well, better than the average at this season of the year, though the acreage is very short. Very little winter wheat is raised outside the counties of Cass, Otoe, Nemaha, Johnson, Richardson, Pawnee, Gage and Jefferson, and there only by a few farmsrs whose farms seem particularly adapted to the cereal.

Inexpensive Displays.

One of the features of social practice in London for many years has been the ihow which can be made on fictitious capital If, for instance, the Fitzjhams desire to give a big dinner party, »nd have no special provisions of their >wn for an imposing display, they can lire all the requisites. They can rent sheir silver and porcelain from one man, iheir tapestries from another, their plants from a third tradesman, and jarnish the dinner table with the pineapple of the hot-house—strictly sacred 'rom the knife, be it understood. Such ceremonies of a society that keeps up large appearances on small means are probably not suspected in the United States, but they exist all the same, and it Newport, too. The story is told of a Philadelphia society personage who held forth in great state at Newport until she married her daughter to an Englishman with a name as aristocratically hyphenated as her own, that she jave a garden party on this hiring principle with almost perfect eclat. She rented a furnished cottage with ample lawn space. The day before the festival she made a tour of the Newport shops. From one she ordered Oriental rugs to be sent her on approval. From another she had a large marquee dispatched to be set up so that she might see how she liked a tent on her terrace. And in ;his way she converted her lawns into i picnic ground at not even the expense >f renting the accessories. There was t rather embarrassing interruption to ;he fete in the shape of a personal demand on the part of the unsympathetic •ug-vender for his money or the return >f the goods, but the hostess overawed rim before he could bring things to a serious climax, and the Japanese lanterns glowed upon a scene of successful eleemosynary splendor after a day of nexpensive display.

EXCITEMENT IN ROCHESTER.

The Cominot'on Caused by the Statement of a Physician. An unusual article from the Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat and Chronicle was recently republished in this paper and was a subject of much comment. That the article caused even more commotion in Rochester the following from the same paper shows: Dr. J. B..Henion, who is well known not only in Rochester but in nearly every part of America, tent an extended article to Jhis paper ay few days since, which was duly published, detailing bis remarkable experience and rescue from what seemed to be certain death. It would be impossible to enumerate the personal inquiries which have' been made at our office is to the validity of the article, but they have been so numerous* that further investigation of the subjectwas deemed necessary, With this end in view a representative of this paper called on Dr. Hen ion at his sesidence. when the following interview occurred: “That article of yours. Doctor, has created quite a whirlwind. Are the statements about the terrible condition you were in, and the way you were rescued, such as you can sustain?” “Every.one of them and many additional ones. I was brought so low by neglecting the first and most simple symptoms. I did not think I was sick. It is 'truer I had frequent headaches; felt tired most of the time; could eat.nothing one day and was rayenous the next; felt dull pains and my stomach was out of border, but I did not think It meant anything serious. “The medical profession has been treating symptoms instead of diseases for years, and it is high time •it ceased. The symptoms I have just mentioned or any unusual action or irritation of the water channels indicate the approach'of kidney disease more than a cough announces the coming of consumption. We do not treat the cough, but try to help the lungs. We should not waste our time trying to relieve the headache, pains about the body or other go directly to the kidneys, the source of most of these ailments. ” • “This, then, is what you meant when you said that more than one-half the deaths which occur arise from Bright’s disease, is It, Doctor?” “Precisely. Thousands of diseases are torturing people to-day, which in reality are Bright’s disease in some of its many forms. It is a hydra-headed monster, and the slightest symptoms should strike terror to every one who has them. I can look back and recall hundreds of jvhich physicians declared at the time were caused by paralysis, apoplexy, heart disease, pneumonia, malarial fever and other common complaints, which I see uow were caused by Bright’s disease.” , “And did all these cases have simple symptoms at first?” “Every one of them, and might have been cured as I was by the timely use of the same remedy. I am getting my' eyes thoroughly opened in this matter and think I am helping others to see the facts and their possible danger also.” Mr. Warner, who was visited at his estab- I lishment on North St. Paul street, spoke 1 very earnestly: “It is true that Bright’s disease had in- I creased wonderfully, and we find, by reli- i able statistics, that from ’7O to ’BO its growth j was over 250 per cent. Look at the prom- j inent men it has carried off, and is taking ' off every year, for while many are dying apparently of paralysis and apoplexy, they are really victims of kidney disorder, which causes heart disease, paralysis, apoplexy, etc. Nearly every week the papers record the death of some prominent man from this scourge. Recently, however, the increase has been checked and I attribute this to the general'use of my remedy.” “Do you think many people are afflicted I with it to-day who do not realize it, Mr. I Warner?”

“A prominent professor in a New Orleans medical college was lecturing before his 1 class on the subject of Bright’s disease. He *■ had various fluids under microscopic analy- I sis and was showing the students what the I Indications of this terrible malady were. | ‘And now, gentlemen.’ he said, ‘as we have seen the unhealthy indications, I will show i you how.it appears in a state of perfect | health,* and he submitted his own fluid to I the usual test. As he watched the results | his countenance suddenly changed—his ' color and command both left him, and in a trembling voice he said: ‘Gentlemen, I have made a painful discovery; 1 have Bright’s disease of the kidneys;’ and in less than a year he was dead. The slightest indications of any kidney difficulty should be enough to strike terror to any one.” “You know of Dr. Henion's case?” “Yes, I have both and heard of it.” “It is very wonderful, is it not?” “No more so than a great many others that have come to my notice as having been cured by the same means'” “You believe then that Bright’s disease j can be cured?” “I know it can. I know it from my own and the experience of thousands of prom- I inent persons who were given up to die by ' both their physicians and friends.” “You speak of your own experience, what was it?” “A fearful one. I bad felt lanquid and unfitted for business for years. But I did • not know what ailed me. When, however, I I found it was kidney difficulty I thought , there was little hope and so did the doctors. I have since learned that one of the physicians of this city pointed me out to a gentleman on the street one day, saying: ‘There goes a man who will be dead'within a year.’ I beliuve his words would have proved<true if I had not fortunately used the remedy now known as Warner's Safe Cure.” “Did you make a chemical analysis of the case of Mr. H. H. Warner some three years i agoz Doctor?” was asked Dr. S. A. Lattimore, j one of the analysts of the State Board of ' Health. “Yes, sir.” “What did this analysis show you?” “A serious disease of the kidneys,” “Did you think Mr. Warner could recover?” “No, sir, I did pot think it possible.” “Do you.know anything about the remedy which cured him?” .“I have chemically analyzed it, and find ' It pure and harmless.” The standing of Dr. Henion, Mr. Warner, I and Dr. Lattimore in the community is be- > ypnd question, and the statements they ■ make cannot 'for a moment be doubted. Dr. I Henion's experience shows that Bright’S ' disease of the kidneys Is one of' the most* deceptive and dangerous of all. diseases, | that it is exceedingly common, but that it , can be cured if taken In time.

Another World's Fair Novelty.

I Among the novelties proposed for the' World’s Fair is a grgantic water tower, i the design being that of W. F. Smith, of Chicago. He. proposes a circular building, with a dome 250 feet above the floor, the rotunda to be just 250 feet in diameter Up the center is an enormous l shaft, in which is a standpipe for pure water and around it elevators. The water rises to the apex of the dome and flows down over it equally on every part; but on the apex stand models of the three I vessels used by Columbus, large enough to hold three hundred spectators at one ' time. - I The dome is to be of clear glass, with steel ribs; these break the flowing water i into ripples and' produce the illusion of a greatly agitated ocean surface. By : an inner arrangement the whole dome I surface of rippling water can ba illuminI ated at night by variously colored lights, i The water is caught in a moat around the base of the dome, and flowing thence through pipes supplies the head for many cascades and fountains upon the grounds. In the base of the structure is to be an immense aquarium, and there will be spacefenough for 12,000 persons, to view the interior.

Changes of Climate

Kill more people than is generally known. Par- . ticularly is this ,the case in instances where the constitution is delicate, and among our immigrant population seeking new homes in those portions of the West, and where malarial and typhoid fevers prevail at certain seasons of the year. The best for a change of climate, or of diet and~water which that change necessitates, is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters,* which not only fortifies the system against malaria, a variable temperature, damp, and the debilitating effects of tropical heat, but it is also the leading remedy for constipation, dyspepsia, liver complaint, bodily troubles specially apt to attack emigrants and visitors to regions near the equator, mariners and'touriats. Whether used as a safeguard by sea voyagers, travelers by land, miners, or by agriculturists in newly populated districts, this fine specific has elicited the most favorable testimony.

The Elder’s Silence.

A story is told of a Scotch elder which illustrates the fact, already too well known, that ingenuity is much stronger in some m?n than conscience. In Scotland it is the custom to stand in public prayer: One Sunday a worthy elder happened to fall asleep while standing at the head of his seat during prayer, and Unfortunately he made a further slip. by.falling all his length along the passage. Instead, however, of making any fuss about it and exposing himself to the charge of sleeping in church, he lay still as if in a fit and allowed himself to be carried into the vestry, while the doctor felt his pulse and pronounced it a decided case of falling sickness. After the patient had recovered, by the application of cold water to his temples, the doctor sagely advised him to eat' only the most laxative food and drink nothing stronger than table beer by way of preventing a recurrence of the sickness.

A Kiss from Sitting Bull.

Regard for my set should, I suppose, writes a Western lady, induce me to refrain from recording the fact, but it is true that I saw a New York belle in the throng around Sitting Bull who, not content with the autograph, aspired to bear away some more novel memento, and mincing up to him whispered something in his ear. The old chief grinned and shook his head, then something heavy passed from her hand to him, and with another grin to 1 the crowd the grimy, dirty, smoke-scented old heathen bent his head down and kissed her. Doubtless that specimen of dainty young womanhood boasts to day of the salute given her by Sitting Bull, the famous warrior, the grand old chieftain of the great Sioux tribe.
