CLEVELAND’S LETTER.

The Indianapolis News, a prominent republican fpaper, refers to Mr. Cleveland’s recent letter to General Bragg, and which appeared in the Sentinel las* week, in the follow ing truthful and complimentary style: “In answer to a suggestion of General Bragg’s, Of Wisconsin— the man who made the famous phrase concerning Cleveland, “We love hits for the enemies he has made"—Mr. Cleveland has written a letter in which he defines himself with regard to the presidency. It was such a definition as is to be eipected from him. It pats him in an attitude to be looked for from him. "I oan not bring myself,” he writes “to regard a candidacy for the place as something to be won by personal strife and aotive self-assertion. e He places him self as amenable to the obligations and duties of citizenship which he has inculcated upon all;as he puts it: “lhave beet, sincere in my constant advocacy of effective participation in political affairs on the part of all out citizens.” .Recognizing this, recognizing that “the Presidency is pre-eminently the people’s office, ” he simply rests himself as one of the people to be called upon ip this place by the people. He Idoes not dose, however, without a warning to his foliow-Democrats that “this is a time for thoughtfulness and deliberation, not only is to candidates, but concerning party action upon questions of immenae intere* to tbe patriotic aud intelligent voters oi the land, who watch tor an assurance of safety as the price of their confidence! and support. ” A letter in better taste could hardly be written. It leaves Mr Clemund aud his party alike unhampered; above all, leaves him his selfrespect unspotted, his dignity untouched, whether he be party’s candidate or not. It shows him to be greater than the office.

A MONSTER EVERGREEN NURSERY

The annual catalogue of the Evergreen Nurseries, of Evergreen, Wisconsin, has been issued, and this office has been favored with a copy. They now list fully three hundred varieties of coniferous evergreens. Some of them are very strange and unique in form and habit of growth. They have been to great pains and expense to secure seeds and plants of evergreei s so nd native in all parts of the earth. If a man wants evergreens cheap but good, for screens, groves, wind-breaks or hedges, there is no better place to go in America. If a man is fond of themarvelous, strange, and curious forms in nature, there is no other place in this country where his fancy can be satisfied with rare and be lUtiful evergreens. These nurseries are growing the plant. in immense numbers, plantin the se< ds by the ton. They imported from one seed house in Germany last season 2300 lbs., besides all they gathered in this country, getting large quantities from Colorado, California, Washington and all the western states and territories. It is well worth ny man’s while to send for theiiy lists.

A GOLDEN NUGGET.

A strange novelty is this golden tnble corn, with its beautiful rich cream color. It is claimed by those who know it that’t is very sweet, early and ‘ender.ianua su perior corn. We notice Viok recom mends it very highly. The Floral Guide, which comes to ns bringing boqu tof Carnations on the front cover, with n splendid bunch of Brilliant Toppies on the back, gives full description of this new corn, which is only 15'cents a packet Vick’s Floral Guide is worthy a place in the home of anvone who expects to make a garden the coming spring. By all means send ten cents to James Vick’s Sou’s Rochester, N. Y.. for the Guide, and you can deduct this amount from your first order. It will pay you well.

AFFECTION OF THE SEAL.

One that Refused to Be Returned to Its Native Element. I once heard of a boy who had a pet teal given to him when it was quite young, says a writer in the Illustrated American. It became very tame, and ased to cuddle up beside the dogs to Sleep in front of the fire, and learned to perform very many tricks. One winter the storms were very severe, and the fishermen were at times quite unable to venture to sea to set their nets. As a matter of course, Ssh were scarce, and the seal’s food having been of fish alone, milk had to be substituted; but It consumed such vast quantities of the latter that, for purposes of economy, after a family council, it was decided to dispose of the beloved pet as soon as possible. The boy and a clergyman friend who had always taken a lively interest In the pet started off in a boat with the precious victim, and when far enongh out for safety threw the seal Into the water Little did they expect the result, for the creature, feeling Itself very much abused, fushed after the boat with all Its might, uttering such fearful and heartrending tries of .rrief that it was at last taken Sack into the boat, where it lay exhausted, sobbing and wailing like a child When the familiar home was reached It soon regained, Its former gavety and health, and lived to a good old ago, little the worse for its adventure.

PHI Box Statistics.

Did you know that styles In pill boxes change almost as often as modes for women’s gowns? Well, they do, and the maker of pill boxes has got to keep moving to be up with the times, says a pillbox maker. Otherwise he will lose Custom. Druggists and musicians are crank* people anyway, but in the matter of pill boxes the former are really exasperating in their demands. You would naturally think that It wouldn’ make any difference just how a box was shaped or what color of paper was used so long as a box was neat, would you? But it does. Some druggists won’t use round boxes at all, others won’t buy squares ones, and some want theirs red-cob red, or blue, or green, or white. It Isn’t so much the fault of the druggist as of his customers. Druggists tell me that their customers are as cranky about pill boxes as thej are about corn cure They want on)? one sort, aud won’t buy from any place where they can t get it. About 250,00 pill boxes are used in this country ever, day. These cover at least 8?, 500 worth 9f pills. Oyer ten big firms manufacture them.

DCIENTIFLC MISCELLANY.

1 L Tousbant finds that the virus of tuberculosis retains its power under conlitions which completely destroy th« germs of other contagious maladies. In experiments with the electric light in night military operations, made at Chatham, England, bodies of fnen were discovered at a distance of more than 1,000 yards. The horn of a rhinoceros, when cut through the middle, is said to exhibit on each side ths Pads figure of a man, the outlines being marked by small white strokes. Various eases of poisoning from the use of perfumes have been reported. In one instanoe some heliotrope perfume applied to the faee of a little girl produced an erysipelas which lasted for a long time. It was found on investigation that the scent was not made with tht odoriferous principles of plants, but wifit some of the products of coal-tar. Thomas and Lugel recently exhibitef an apparatus for measuring the rapidity of growth of a plant. The plant itsew is connected with an index which ad vances visibly and constantly, exhibiting growth on a scale fifty times magnified When the index is connected with an electrio hammer, the current of whioh is interrupted as the index passes over the divisions of the circle, the growth of the plant becomes not only visible, but also audible to the ear. In this way it is now possible, literally, to “hear tho grass grow.” Mr. Muybridge, the eminent San Francisco photographer, has exhibited his photographic marvels of Prof. Marej in Paris. He is now able to take a photo graph in the hundreth part of a second During a clown’s leap he obtained sis photographs, showing different positions. By means of an improved zoetrope, hf projects such figures on a screen, thus exhibiting the motions of a down in his somersaults, t\ horse at gallop, a hare coursing and even birds at flight, etc.— the pictures of the various positions as they pass in rapid succession across the screen, uniting to form living figures. M. Plant* has succeeded in engraving on glass by means of electricity. Tbs process is as follows: The glass it laid in a horizontal position, and covered with a concentrated solution of nitrate of potash, the liquid being retained by a ■hallow vessel in whioh the glass is placed. A platinum wire is dipped in a horizontal position in the solution along tile edges of the glass. The wire is at ♦ached to one of the poles of a secondary battery of fifty to sixty elements. The lines are traced by hand with the point of an insolated platinum wire, connected with the other pole of the battery. The parts of the glass covered with the alkaline solution become engraved wheD touched with the end of the platinum wire, however rapidly this is moved, the thickness of the lines varying with the thickness of the wire. The current from either pole may be used in thwriting wire.. “It is a marvelous circumstanos,' says Dr. Brancroft, “ that the black mas oi Australia should have dropped ’ upon the same narcotic principle (nico tine) as the red man of America. ” Pitari is a yi.znt <jt Central Australia, not fai ;?mcved from the tobacco plant. Theleaves of the plant are chewed by tht aborigines, who trade with it extensively Chemical analysis show that the alkaloid in which th- peculiar poisonous properties depend is. nicotine, the same substance to whioh tobacco owes its effects. Priori is eagerly sought by the native Australians, nut for the purpose of ex citing their courage or combativenesv but to produce a dreamy, voluptuous een.'-.uion, each as is experienced by the opium ef.rir. It is often taken by the "latives on their long marches to deaden - craving of hunger and to > iappo*' t - under eicossive faUgua.

Thebe is one factory in the State of 'Connecticut which turns out daily 20,000 jiounds of oleomargarine.

•‘A FIRM ADHERENCE TO CORRECT PRINCIPLES.”

WOLF LAKE IMPROVEMENT.

CONGRESSMAN PATTON OP THE TENTH district hard at work. Logansport Reporter. Repr< gentative Patton from the Tenth district is laboring hard with the committee of Congret-s on rivers and harbors for au improvement of Wolf Lake, in Lake county, whioh occupies the northwest corner of the state. The improvement, as proposed, includes the deepening and widening of W olf river, which is only one mile long and connects the lake with Lake Mioh It would give Indiana a deepwater harbor, opening up avast and profitable commerce for the State. In all the river and harbor appropriations, amounting in the aggregate to hundreds of millions of dollars, Indiana has received, greatly to her detriment, soaroely anything. This harbor could be secured for less than a quarter of a million of uollars. It would admit all kinds of vessels. The outlet of the lake is only six miles from the Ohioago river, whose capacity is greatly over-taxed. The shipping of Chicago is suffering, owini; to the gigantio demands made upon its harbors. The commeroe of that city is greater than all tbe ocean coast trade of the country aud ie constantly growing. The near approach of s he world’ fair, with its additional business, makin the development of Wolf river and Wo 1 lake harbor es much a necessity o Chioag as it will be a benefit io Indioli . In th petition before Congress whioh is signed by hundreds of prominent citizens, county officials, business officials, etc., and also by Governor Chase an.t all the other state officers, it is recounted that the government has long had the impiovement under consideration. Government engineers have reported that Wolf lake would make a fine harbor us far back as 1875. The petition show that the work d'ne to this date at WoP lake cut on Lake M iohigan is: One nundred feet inside sh< e work well built and substantial to previ t Lake Michigan from cutting behind t e pier, six hundred feet pier built from vater’s edge six hundred feet out into Ls e Michigan on northwest side of the, arbor, of Destqualit. white oat, etc., au worth, acoordtng to the above enginee >’ estimates reported to Congress, upwards of SIO,OOO. Upwards of 75,000 yards of dredging were done on Wolf river during 1890, worth $15,000, according to the . same estimate; sems was also done in ! 1781. i heie are on hand in Wolf river, I one steamboat and two dredges and tend - ers, ready to piocoed with the work as soon as the government surveAs and locate s the lines of the river and harbor. It is thus easy t > eee that the harbor can be dev.-looed with very moderate cost, bringing millions of wealth to the State in si ipping intmests. Had tbe improvement been re de in 1875 Indiana would now Lrv. immense tra te on the lakes. The owners < the laud needed for the ! uprov Trier t h ive deeded a strip 300 feet , wide for a h rbor. A. pier 2,400 feet long: would give depth of water of twenty-| four feot, sufficient to accommodate the largest vessels.

THE PRESIDENT’S TAXATION OF COFFEE.

National Democrat. We impo t >i large quantity of c. ll'ee fro a. Venezuela. Un this coliee, the President, in the exercise of rtvo utionary and uncoustit'ition i power conferred upon him by a Republican Congress control'ed by Mr. Reed, nd bent pon centralization aud plunder, has levied a duty of 3 cents a pound. Certainh tbe prices cf tbe same grades of coffee are not going to according as they come from one country or nolher. Coffee of the si.me gr ide will oommand a certain price irrespective of the source of supply If Brazil can readily supply alone the coffee weave now getting from Brazil and Venezuela together, then there will be no Venezuela coffee importod, but the inoreased deman 1 for coffee from Brazil will iucreas the price there, and the Americanconsumerv.il pay all, or a part, of the 3 cents lax, only instead of paying it to his own government, he will pay it in increased prices to the Brazilian planters. But if Brazil cannot supply a’ 1 the coffee we have been getting from the two countries, then we shall have to go on importing coffee from Venezuela, and on such coffee we will pay an import duty of 3 cents a pound wh'ch will go ipto our Treasury. American coffee drinkers will j be permitted to-pay more for their coffee [ in order to punish Venezuela, and in the ) meanwhile the Venezuelan planters w.ll be getting substantially tie same for their product that they are now, for in the case supposed we cannot get all the coliee we need elsewhere.

Bat besides seeking to punish Venezu ela for her obsti acy by taxing ourselves on oar coffee anotlmr and more interesting thing will occur, ft, as we have assumed, our demand continues, as it will probably, to take pretty much the whole surplus coffee product of the two countries, and prices in oar market are th< same for a given quality, irrespective of the country of origin, then the increase of 2 or 3 ots a pound in the price of Venezuela coffee resulting from the levying of a duty will increase in like ratio the prioe of Brazilian coffee, but as we levy no duty on the latter the increase will all go to th Brazilian producer or to the middlemen. As tße amount of corfee we import from Brazil is five or six times as great us that we import from Venezuela, the increased price we shall pay for Brazilian coffee, which will go to foreign planters and ealers, will be five or six times as much as the increased price we shall pay for Venezuelan cofiee which will go to our own Government This is a typical Republican tax; one of wh ch a small part goes to the Government and far the gi eater part goes to individuals. Gen. Rosec ans, the register of the treasury, come .nded the Army of th Cumberland and won, among other bard fought battles, that of Stone river. Col. D. H. Patt-jn commanded an Indiana regiment in the Arm of the Cumberland, and during all the vsars since the war ha never met b)9 old ommander until he was sent to congress from the Tenth Indiana district. Of course the general and colonel were pleaded to meet again, and ex. changed Grand Army buttons, each wearing the other’s nr.tton as a tort of souvenir of the meeting after so many long years.

« ini Tench the White 7Yla.fi* J. D Bradford, connected with the hoctaw Railway Company, Indian Territory, says tho < hoctaw Indians have no equals in practical politics in any land in the world Last winter when Gov Jones, a young half-breed, was elected Governor, wc witnessed one of the great ost campaigns ever fought When our railroad pierced the coal mines of the bo taw Nation, several of the old red men attempted to get possession of mosl of the mines and make us pay dearly for the coal. They failed and have cried -corporation” ever since. So when th« gubernatorial candidates began to show their hands, Jones took the high moral ground that he was against our railroad and a 1 those who lavored it. He went :n the fight with this <entlment as a watchword and was elected, but it was an exciting fight. During the campaign if Jones wanted to communicate with a o. n iifty miles away he would send a man with verbal messages. The other candidates followed this example and no ritteu .otters figured in the campaign, ho day before the voting a messiah siorv was turned loose in the sections of the nation wher.e Jones was not popular .ir.d the people left to see the messiah, bus losing thsir votes. On this same lay a number of leading Indians, who were working against the election of .lines, were summoned to Washington u> bogtt« telegrams to talk with the rest father.
