His honor, the Mayor, to the new finance committee: That last blunder of tlie Gazette was inexcusable. Thepaper should have known that the. political capital we were to make out of onr perfunctory part in the bond letting was to be maue quietly by oursehe

The complaints from a long suffering public of extortion by hackmen make it necessary that an ordinance be passed and the police given instructions to enforce it. The outrages that have been practiced are nothing short of highway robbery. The Express proposes to make itself a medium of complaint in this matter, and keep up the agitation until relief i9 furnished.

The many admiring friends of Mayor Kolsem will be glad to know that the fore fi jger and thumb of bis right hand are rapidly recovering from the strain put upon them iu negotiating the $30,000 of school bonds. A subsequent examination of the ends of the envelopes, which contained the bids, shows that the prtssure of the handles of the shears on his honor's thumb and forefinger was such as would have broken thotc valuable mem bers upon any hand but-his.

is said Mayor Kolsem has received a letter from Vanderbilt's private secretary from which the following is an extract "I can sympathyze with you and the Gazette in the matter of the credit for negotiating those bonds. It is among my duties to clip the coupons on Mr. Vanderbilt's bonds. Of course there is popular impression that I did not make the money with which these bonds were purchased, just as there is an impression in Terre Haute that your predecessors, who ordered the bonds issued and who advertised for the bids which you opened are the ones who deserve the credit for the excellent terms on which the bonds were placed.

Mr. Kolsem, that your lot is a liappie one than mine. You have a champion I can get no newspaper to help me into my rightful position before the public as the courageous and fearless Gazette laboring to do for you."

The Washington correspondent of the Louisville Courier-Journal says Mr. liunna's commission is being held back !n-cause charges have been preferred against hint. He is accused of takin SI,000 from a citizen of Crawfordsville for his influence in getting this particular citizen appointed postmaster. He is also accused of taking $600 front Mr. John Regan, the new postmaster of Terre Haute, for like services. Mr. Regati'i denial of the truth of the charge so far as lie is'concerned was hardly necessary to establish its falsity in this community Everyone knows that Mr. Kegan's case was in the hands of more influential dent ocrat« than Maun a and thfitffis a matter of fact Regan himself, in his relations with Voorliees and others, was about as big a man in "influence" as Mr. TIanna But the correspondent says the president likes to. investigate all these "little things."

In this statement perhaps there may be found an explanation of the serious blun dors the president has made in many of the important appointments in the diplo matic service. Perkaps his liking for "little tilings" prevented him readin Keiley's speecli made after the war and repeated after Mr. Cleveland named him for a mission* wherein he declared the war for the Union "a bloody viola tion of rights." It may also have prevented his reading Keiley's book, published in 1860—"In Vinculis, or the Prisoner of War, Being the Experience of a Rebel in Two Federal Pens," etc., "by A. M. Keiley, a Virginia Confederate." This book was written a year after the war. It is filled with hate and venom he "abhors the Union" (but takes a $12,500 position un der it), and in one place refers to his joy at seeing a "Yankee" soldier meet with a serious accident just after this same Yankee soldier refused to take his (Keiley's) life, but made him prisoner. Referring to the charge of inhuman treatment of Union prisoners in southern prisons, he admits the truth of it in this manner:

Its [the confederacy I failure was the crushing by brute force of the aspirations of eight millions of people for liberty, and history will

record it. It is not much wonder, then, that there was no individual sympathy for those who were captive among us, and that when the government issued rations to them, such as it had to give, they were dependent on that alone for subsistence.

He sa vs the crime of Wirz, of Andersonville, was the same as that of himself oi any confederate.

In the heat of the war Blackburn, of Kentucky, wrote a letter to his wife in which he said he wanted to swim his horse in yankee blood. The production of this letter was sufficient cause with the president to revoke Blackburn's apjmintmeut as a revenue collector. Keiley's expressions of ferocity and hatred for tjie union have no excuse, as possibly could lie offered for Blackburn, who was in the field, because the Virginian never entered the service except when impressed in the defense of Petersburg, where he was captured. And wrote his sentiments a year after the war had closed.

Is there any consistency in this way of doing? What silly stuff it is to praise the .president for his desire to "investigate little things?" Withholding Bayless Hanna's commission on a transparentfoolish charge and forcing Keiley into a mission, when every loyal man in the country sent up a protest that even the man of "small things" might have heard is but another iustauee of the ridiculous attempt of the administration to be»eonsistent.

SECRETS OF THBf TEA 1rRA$fe.

No Belianee to be Placed In a Na»e— How to Prepare and Drtnlc Tea^y "Americans and Europeans mate a great mistake in buying tea," said an educated Chinese merchant ^"They :invariably rely upon the name instead of judging of the quality of the tea by its appearance. The Chinese never do tW, for they are aware that no other people under the sun are so adroit in the adulteration of goods as their own nation

No dependence can be placed on a mere name in the tea trade. Chinese people judge of tea jus't as Americans do of butter, by its looks and smell. To determine this is a matter of education in the same way that judging butter is. Tea of good quality, unadulterated, is almost in odorous and diffuses little aroma when placed in boiling water. The Chinese invariably use black tea at home and al most exclusively here also. This is both from preference for its trade and because it is considered healthier. The best tea brought to this country is the black, the finer grades of green tea being all consumed in China. Gieen tea, too, is subject to more forms of adulteration, over 200 methods being employed to that end.. Besides it is cured in copper pans and always more or less impregnated with copper dust. These pans are none too clean, either, as the growers care" nothing for what kind of stuff they pal® off on people so unfortunate as to have been born outside of the flowery kingdom. They term all other races 'barbarians. Green tea is dried by the sun black, by artificial heat. "More tea is consumed per head in America than in China. It is frequently spoiled here by boiling. Tea should never be boiled. The water should be boiling when turned over it, and it should then be allowed to infuse. It should always be made in eartben pots. One and a half teaspoonfuls of good, strong'tea is a sufficient quantity for two cups of water. If the tea is poor and weak use more. Let it stand five or six minutes before using. 'The best tea obtained in this country is that imported by Chinese dealers. They get it from some one they know in the old country at less price than it will be sold to foreigners. They can secure a better grade than other buyers, too, because they know what they are buying and it is useless for their countrymen to try to iiftpose upon them. "The" Chinese laugh at other people for putting cream and sugar in tea. They always drink it clear. They consider that it destroys the boquet entirely to mix it with anything else. The American tea traders pever put in sugar or milk, and epicures in Europe' seldom drink their tea other than plain. "In- the interior of both China and

Japan there are tea houses every little distance. Sugar, except in the raw state is seldom seen except along the coast, you should ask for sugar for your tea at one of these little refreshment houses the attendants would not know what you meant. If you made them understand, girl would probably run to the nearest shop and return with a little unrefined sugar in the palm of her hand. "The tea leaves are picked by men, women, and children, who get from ten to fifteen cents per day for their labor. The owner of the plantation, also, furnishes their board while working. The most ex pensive tea at home, which is never al lowed to go out of the country, is picked with the greatest care to keep the leaves intact and unbruised. This tea sells in China for $20 and more per pound There is tea, too, that sells tor less than five cents a pound there. "American people have three things to learn before thty will have good tea. How to buy it, how to make it, and how to drink it."

www Captain Clarence E. Dutton, of the ordnance department of the army, who has been engaged for ten years in the study of the geology of the great plateau region of the west, started last week for California under-instructions from Major Powell, director of the geological survey^ to make a study of the geological phenomena presented by the Cascade mountains, the greatest volcanic range upon the globe. Before his departure Captain Dutton finished the man uscript of his contribution to the next annual publication of the geological survey. The paper is entitled "Mount Taylor and the Zuni'Plateaus," but, although it treats in detail of only two plateaus of the plateau region, the conclusions which these are made to illustrate embody in part the result of years of study extending over, a very wide area. The author traces the geological history of the region down to its present condition, finding evidences of alternating periods of mois ture and dryness, of great and sudden uplifts of great areas, and of slow and long continued rising in others, and of the denudation of immense tracts aild the cutting of canons by tlje waters. In the study of the Zuni mountains he finds reason for the conclusion that the mountains of the west have not been produced by horizontal compression, but by the action of some unknown forces beneath which have lifted them up. Upon the extensive plateau of which Mount Taylor is the centre he finds ample confirmation of the theory that the volcanic cap which once covered so large a portion of the region, and which still tops many extensive means, had its origin not in discharges from immense volcanic moun tains like Mount Taylor itself, but through innumerable vents through the sedimentary strain. These evidences consist largely in the numeroushuge "necks" of pure lava from the vicinity of which the sedimentary deposits have been eroded. These necks are the contents of once-existing funnels through which the molten lava was forced to spread itself in a thin cap over the level country above. iThey explain the existence of lava beds at the present time so far dis tant from the nearest volcanic mountain as to preclude the supposition that the two ever had any connection.

perry Darls, the Originator of the Celebrated "Pain-Killer," Found in an Alius House. Pittsburg Special.

It is just discovered that Perry Davis, the originator of the ceh brated "Painkiller," has for the past fifteen years been an inmate of the Mercer county alms house. A correspondent to-nisht sends the following: Davis is a Frenchman, and came from his native country to the United States years ago, and at once embarked in the business of manufacturing

selling his medicine, which he

generally disposed of himself by traveling around the country with a team and a two-wheeled cart, stopping wherever be thought there was a prospect of a sale and selling to country stores of every kind. Old merchants still remember the small, dark, keen-eved stranger who would visit them periodically and leave a few bottles of liniment These trips were not confined to any territory in particular, but were extended tr limited at the pleasure of himself. By these process-• he had accumulated considerable money, which he invested in property in the northern portion of MerceV county, near Sheakleyville. Although he had no'Sittled home, he seemed to prefer this place, and when not on the road, spent a great deal of time there. Just how he lost the title to. the nostrum is not and nev«r will be known, as Davis, after eii tering the Almshouse, was very taciturn concerning his business and wotild ne cr mention any facts of the case. It is supposed, however, that he gave the receii to other parties with the understanding that he was to have an interest in the business. As he began to dabble in financial speculations on a large scale and failed, his affairs became very much mixed up and the sheriff finally sold his goods for debt. Davis disappeared, aud was found several days afterward roaming through the woods a lunatic. A large gash across his throat seemed to imply that he had attempted suicide, and his clothes and boots were in a very bad con dition. After his capture he became morose and sullen, rarely speaking, and moping around. For a period of two months at a time he would not speak a word, and then would talk only of his early history or of trifling affairs. He is a well educated man, and is said to speak seven languages. He is also an excellent penman, as samples written during his confinement will show. One of his peculiarities is that he will never take medicine under any circumstances.

General Grant and Prince Bismarck Berlin Letter to Boston Herald. I asked the crown prince if lie saw much-of Grant when in Berlin, and his reply was: "Yes and no and then he added that, while he saw hiin several times, he did not see him often enough. "It was difficult to find him at his hotel," said Fritz, "aS .he was always out sight-seeing when not attending receptions or returning official calls."

I remember quite a military scandal that occurred while he was here The officers and men on duty at the different places had strict orders to treat him with all'possible honors, iu the way of salutes, turning out the guard, etc. But the sentries got it into their heads that the ex-president of the United States would go about in great style, in an open coach, like a sovereign, whereis he was always on foot, and seldom accompanied by more than one or two persons. Well, the day he first came to see me he sauntered along Unter den Linden in a nonchalent way, and was past the sentries at the palace door before they saw him. Even then they did not know him, and, perhaps, would not have haluted him at all had it not been for die sudden opening of the doors by the valets who had been watching for his coming. Then the two soldiers came to a present. General Grant threw away his cigar lifted his hat to them and passed indoors. The poor captain of the guard, when he heard of this incident, was wild with rage and chagrin. He went so far as to punish one of the sentries, and for this was reprimanded in general orders. What most struck me was Grant's utter disregard for all things pertaining to the army. I had some trouble in inducing him to permit me to give him a review of some of the garrison troops."

New York Letter. Speaking of George Gould, it was he who first introduced Freddy Gebbard to Mrs. Langtry. Apropos of the introduction, George tells the following story: "Not long after the introduction there was a coolness betweee jbhard and my self, the reason of which it is not necessary to explain now. One evening I was a.t the Brunswick, when Freddy accosted me. I saw there was something strange in his manner, but I took no notice of it. '"I hear,' said Freddy, 'you told a reporter that yon considered me a fool. Is that true?'

Everybody has a right to his own opinion, Mr. Gebbard,' I replied. 'Possibly I may have said so.' "'Then, sir, I shall take satisfaction.' 'Go ahead, Mr. Gebhard, and we'll have Billy Edwards as referee. When shall it be?' I asked smilingly. "Freddy noticed my amused manner and there was a general laugh. 'Oh, if you only said it in fun, I'll say no more about it, you know, only I thought these newspaper fellows were lying." "That's the last I heard of Frddy's intentions, and as we usually salute each other when we meet, nothing came of it Still one must be responsible tor bis opinion, mustn't he?'

Sam Fullen, one of the coal oil Ohio democracy—The understanding here was that Senator Payne was to go into Cleveland's Cabinet, and that the legislature would then elect Johnny McLean senator, but you see Payne didn't go into the cabinet

A Place Where a Newspaper is Needed. ,, St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

It will be along time, we think, before another meeting of the Presbyterian general assembly is held in Cincinnati. The newspapers of that city have almost ignored the session the amplest and best reports given being flimsy, incomplete and unsatisfactory. One of those days somebody will print a newspaper in Cin cinnati not wholly devoted to politics and crime—not entirely given up to the idea that all that interests the public is to be found either in the brothels or in the ward meetings—and that newspaper will be a success.^ The idea that there is no interest taken in the debates of men like those who compose he. general assembly, and that the world is frei zing to death to know all about the mugtv iimps and the democrats and the republioa-is, is a great mistake. The Cincinnati papers spend most of the time hamnn-ring cold iron with hot sledges^— they*an: howling politics when there is no politics-.

"An American Bible."

New York Special. One of the largest publishers of cheap books has sent a proposal to each mem ber of the American company of Bible revisers contemplating the issueof an American Bible. The idea is to embody in the text the changes which the American experts recommend and which the Englishmen excluded. It is not expected that the gentlemen will agree to any such enterprise—not for the present, at least—although there is a feeling among them that their opinions were not as freely accepted as they ought to have been. But the publisher means to get up the American Bible, taking advantage of the fact that the rejected readings of the American scholars are given in an appendix to the revised scriptures. These are unpro tected by copyright, and therefore are available for the purpose. He is unde cided whether to incorporate further de viations than these. "Anyhow," he says, "I shall boom this- Bible for all it is worth, and I guess American patriotism can be depended on to bring success."

.: A Child Killed by a Fowl. Liverpool Courier. A remarkable fatality to a child 1 year and 9 months old has just been investigated at Little Hempston. On Friday the deceased was taken out by a neigh bor's child, and almost immediately was heard to crv, as if in great pain. The mother rushed out, and observed a large game fowl standing upon the head of the child, who was lying upon its back in the road. It seems that the child had pulled the tail of the bird, which had immediately turned upon it, knocked it down and struck it savagely three or four times with his spur. The post-mortem examination showed that the spur of the fowl, which was two inches in length, had penetrated the child's skull behind the left ear, and all efforts to save its life were unavailing.
