A Famous Fiction Hero Dead. Cartter, the famous Nevada fighter, died the other dav, and Chronicle* recalls the fact that Mark Twain in “Roughln? . tells a story of his prowess. 1 wain s account well illustrates the quiet out deep determination of 'the man. One evening Cartter entered a restaurant and unintentionally sat down on the hat of a tall and athletic .no.-blooded young gentleman, who was with two or three other equally hi"hspirited companions. When Cartter realized what he had cone he apologized, straightened the hat out to the best of his ability, gave On hi 3 honor a gentleman that it was not an intentional affiont, and in a few modest words endeavored to appease the wrath of the young man, who was in fact a worthy C1 ™, en though a trifle inexperienced. •JI , man with the broken hat insisted that it was an outrage that could ^ or ^^ ven : and taking off his coat challenged the stranger to combat. If we must fight, we must, I supprse, said Cartter, slowly, as if unde- £ deu what to do. “I don’t like the ^“ ou ?h, for I don’t believe the w no-e .ot of you would have any chance . 1 P 1 ®- Let me show Von something. Quietly sitting down at the big table he took hold of it with his teeth, and bracing his knees against the lower part of the table, raised it and its contents, a big dinner for four, roast and & his horse load stood erect. .When he put the table to the floor without spilling a drop from the wellnlled glasses there was an oppressive > Hence, which he broke by’ saying: I have already apologized. My name is Cartter. Let’s all take a drink.” Nobody refused. Caught in the Tolls Os that lurking foe, chills and fever, we often struggle vainly to free ourselves from its clutch. Palliatives there are without number, but if you want a real remedy, as of course you do if afflicted with this abominable mal«ady, hesten to procure and persistently useJioetetier's Stomach Bitters. If you follow this suggestion, permanent restoration to heaith will reward you. Every form of malarial disease is permanently eradicated bv the Bisters, which is likewise a reliable safeguard against maladies of this type. Not alone on this continent, but throughout the tropics it is justly regarded as a complete antidote’to miasma poison in air and water. No less effective is it for disorders of the stomach liver and bowels, rheumatism, kidney complaints and nervousness. No one sojourning in a malarious region, or who is subjected to outdoor exposure in rough weather, or to ex^Aesive mental or physical strain, should be without this fine defensive tonic. Absent Minded. Neander, professor of theology in Berlin, was one day’ overtaken by a

thunderstorm. He jumped into a cab, but could not give either the number of his house or the name of the street. The driver thought the man was mad, and was about to tell him to get out, when the professor, espying a student, called out to him and said, “Just tell the man where I live.” Neandor's sister, who kept house for him, took fresh apartments nearer the university, as she thought the distance ioo great for her brother. A few days •after their removal, he complained of tfle long and tiring walk, and it then turned out that he had always gone first to the old lodgingsand so round to the university.—Chronik der Zeit.

. BRAVE BOYS IN BLUE’ I ENCAMPMENT OF THE Q. A. R. AT INDIANAPOLIS. _____ The Old Veterans Entertained In Royal Style at the Hoosier Capital—A Week of Reunions and Parades—Number in Attendance, Etc. Twenty-seventh Annual Meet. Indianapolis correspondence:

) • /*/ I I 1 HE twenty-seventh annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, held at Indianapolis, was the grandest of the series of grand national reunions of old

soldiers. It was in Decatur, 111., on April 6, 1866, that Dr. Stephenson formed the first post of the G. A. R., and for the third time since the birth of the order the Hoosier capital has opened wide its arms in hospitable welcome to the boys who wore the blue.

f — i THE PARADE PASSING THE REVIEWING STAND.

Many causes contributed to the success of the gathering this year, among them the untiring energy and marvelous capacity of the Indianapolis managers, of whom a group is here pictured, the enthusiasm of the Western veterans, particularly those of Indiana and the contiguous belt of States, MiohJwOUb&L ■ TOMLINSON HALL Igan on the north, Ohio on the east, and Illinois, lowa, Missouri, Kansas

ana jNeurasKa on the west, and the associated attraction of the World’s Fair. The West is noted as the land of bi? things, and it is not behind in the size of its Grand Army following. The fraternity originated in the West, and the West started out in the lead in point of influence and has kept its end more than level. At the first encampment in Indianapolis in 1860 the , West naturally had a majority of the j delegates, but at the second encamp--1 ment in Philadelphia it also took the | lead. Indiana, Illinois and Ohio alone i sent one-half the delegates. A Western veteran, John A. Logan, of Illinois, was commander-in-chief and held the. office two terms. The arrangements for entertaining and caring for the thousands present had been committed to a Citizens’ Committee of SOOO persons, including prominent men from other cities and towns. The head of this large body, which was divided into numerous subcommittees, was Colonel Eli Lilly, President of the Commercial Club, in which the scheme for securing the encampment was worked out. There was a large Executive Committee, of which Colonel Lilly was Chairman; D. P. Erwin, Vice Chairman; William Fortune, Executive Director; Allan Hendricks, Secretary; and State Treasurer Albert Gall, ’ Treasurer. The names of such wellk-nown men as Gov. ' ° Mi" n>u««.Mavor

Great cities, small c J towns, little hamlets, and .solitary farmI ' houses sent their quotas, greater or i smaller, and the result was an attendance that no man could closely esti-

mate, and one certainly surpassing any ’ ever before seen in Indianapolis. The trains, in this city surrounded by a network of railroads, arrived in 80 many sections as to constitute an intricate problem in railroad management, and every train~“WW laden with comrades and their wives and sons and daughters. Besides, i there were thousands of sightseers not • in any way connected with the Grand Army. The old soldiers were accompanied by their wives and children to an extent, it is said, never noticed at any previous national encampment. The spectacle presented as the veterans arrived and marched up Illinois street and around the monument ir the circle, and this seemed to be the favorite tactics of nearly all the arrivals, was novel even to those who had attended encampments on former occasions. All of these people were taken care of as they arrived by the members of the Reception Committee or their corps of numerous assistants. The programme for the week’s doings began Monday. Most of the day was taken up by the arrival of veterans and other visitors. In tho evening a grand reception was given to the national and department officers and delegates at Tomlinson Hall. The hall will accommodate 3,200 people and there were thousands ' name to gain admission. A chorus of <%'O voices and an orchestra of forty pieces rendered music appropriate to the occasion. Gen. Harrison delivered the address of welcome and Cc mmandei'-imthief Weissert made response.

To the National Association of Naval Veterans was accorded the honor of inaugurating the business features of the week, and the hall of the Masonic Temple was comfortably filled with gray-haired salts when, at ten o'clock Monday, the eighth annual convention was called to order by Rear Admiral B. S. Osborn, of New York. Rear Admiral Osborn was chosen to succeed himself by a vote of 33 to 27 over Francis B. Allen, of Hartford. Conn., the present Commodore. This convention was a close to their events which began the previous Friday. The Great Parade. The grand parade took place on Tuesday, and lasted from ten o’clock a. m. until six o’clock in the evening. It is estimated that there were about 23,000 men in line, the number failing short of expectations on account of tho delay of trains in bringing the veterans into the city. From noon until five o’clock the trains brought in thousands of the old soldiers, too late, however, for them to take part in the

review. Furthermore, half those that

In addition to the main reviewing stand occupied by Commander V «jissert, the line of march passed stallids erected for disabled veterans, fojr a chorus of school children, who si ing patriotic songs, and for thousands i vho willingly paid 81.50 each for seats. A feature of the parade surpassing all previous ones was the number of ho rses lin line. Decorations of the _ J nost elaborate kind marked the lin<) of march, and the whole spectacle was one not often se m in times of peace. Indiana alone had at least fifteen thousand old soldiers in line in addition to the militia of the State, and these survivors of 154 war regiments, while passing in review before Com-mander-in-chief Weissert and an array of distinguished guests, reformed the old ranks and unfurled the battered battle flags they carried on the field. The parade * ignored the splendid shaft erected in Circle Park in memory of soldiers and sailors. This was . premeditated on the part of the Veter- I ans. For a year or more there has j

Lecturer to a Prince. After the numerous uncomplimentary remarks about Pr’nce Henry of Battenberg, the husband of Princess Beatrice, it will perhaps be refreshing to hear a story like the following: Doctor Z- , a German physician and surgeon in Prince Henry's regirsant, came home one afternoon very tired, and directed his servant Anna not to allow him to be disturbed until 5 o'clock. A few minutes afterward the bell was ! run^, and Mrs. Z - - , who was making : a salad in the dining-room, caught a

glimpse of an officer's uniform, and heard with dismay the following conversation: “Is your master in?” “Yes, but you can't see him. He's i very tired, and is sleeping.” “Won’t you give him my card?” “No, not before 5 o’clock. You can sit down here and wait till then. I shan't disturb him now for anybody.” The visitor, who was Prince Henry, persuaded the servant to take his card to her mistress, who upbraided her for her stupidity and sent her to the doctor. He, too. vented his anger on her. “Haven't you been here long enough. Anna," said he, “to know the difference between a prince and a private soldier? Go and apologize to the prince, and say that I will come to him at once.” Anna returned to the door. “My master is very angry with me," she began, “and he wishes me to apologize to you for not knowing you were an officer. But there's nothing about you to show that you are different from ' other j>eople, and in my part of the | country a man is esteemed for his worth j

and not for his titles.” “You are perfectly’ right,” said the prince. “If you always live up to that principle, you’ll have no trouble in the world.” Several times after this, when Prince Henry had occasion to call at the doctor's, he inquired for Anna, and seemed to enjoy talking with her. When he was about to marry the Princess, and to make England his home, the Prince called to say good-by to Doctor Z ’s family, and, as usual, asked to see Anna. ” “Good-by, Anna,” said he. “I want to thank you for several wholesome lectures you have given me. If ever you leave Dr. Z and wish a new situation. come to me. There will always be a place for you in my household.” The Modern Beauty Thrives on good food and sunshine, with plenty of exercise in the open air.

The Buffalo Bug. The destructive bug which does so much damage in many sections of the country is the grub of the buffalo beettie. It is a minute hairy creature that largely devours wool, and is said to eat cotton, pawrs, or anything in its wey. It generally is found in dark cornefi or cracks. It always appears the next season, if the eggs and grubs have not been destroyed, in exactly the same place it did before. The beetle emerges from the pupa state in April, flies out the window, but soon returns to lay its I eggs, which soon hatch into the little

pest that feeds upon your carpets. The beetle is a strict vegetarian, and feeds on the spired or other plants. It only feeds on wool while it is a grub. Prof. Lintner, our State entomologist, has found benzine more effective ia destroying this grub than anything else. Treat all parts of the carpet where the bug has appeared before thoroughly with benzine early in April, and again in July and August if there are any signs of its reappearonce. It is without doubt the most difficult of all household pests to get rid of, because it entirely disappears from the i house while it is a beetle, and one can never feel whether it has gone forever or only for the season. Value of Fann Lands. The value of farming land in this country is greatest in New Jersey. In 1890 it averaged: New Jersey, 565; Massachusetts.
