STRANGE TO SAY, AN F.X UNION SOLDIER EUTLT THE B NFIRE. Ph i 1 ad el ph i a E n q u i r er , It was a fieak of fate, a bit of iroiiy in bis'torical circumstancet5, t'lHt made an ex. Union eldier the destrojer of secret docuraents of the Ci t federacy. Not ojly &n ex-Uoiou so'd er. but an Eik county Pennr)!-v-iuian, cavalryman, who to dy is a resident of the South. Adjoining the Bouvier estate of JnVrson Davis is one belonging to a Ntw Olans rrercbant narjed Hovvdl. The property is not at ell prrfitalle, and so the tenant farmer lives on the place rent free. The name cf this man is J. B. Lewis for merly of Denizette, Eik county, Pennsylvania, and a member of Gompany A, Twenty- first Regiment, Pennsylvania Cavalry. Since the war Mr. Lewis has lived in the South, the climate being adapted to his health, for he is predisposed to pul monary eompliints. As the nearest neighbor rf JtiTersou Davie, it was the fate of Mr. Lewis to be brought into frt-nunt contact with him. The Lewis boys were favorites of the ex Confederate President, and frequent ly performed messenger Bervice for him to and from New Oilenns. In personal appearance, Mr. Lewis is tall and klecderly built, with a heavy mustache, turning gray rapidly. His dark complexion, broad-brimmed hat and butternut colored clothes would give a 6tranger the impression that he was a native Southerner. His broad and clear pronunciation is un mistakably Pennsylvanian. "I suppose there was at least a ton of letters and miscellaneous papers burned by me under Mr. Dayis'd di rection," said Mr. Lewis, during a drive over the shell road from Bou vier to Bdoxi, "i. was thrown into the society of Mr. Davis in a neigb bo.ly way. He W8S engaged in writing his book, and during part of this titno Mr. Ridpatb, the historian was at Bouvier. When the docu ments were destroyed there were several large boxfs of them. Mr. Davie, after keeping ell letterf, doc uments and papers of an historical character, ordered all of his private corretpondence to be destroyed. He furnished Mrs. Davis with a list of the contents of the various boxes, some of which had not been opened for twnty years. I went over this mass of correspoidence with her thousands and thousands of letters It was necessary for us to read a great many of them, so that nothing that was not strictly personal should be destroyed. Thete were letters from every prominent man and officer in the South during the Rebellion, and a go d many from men in the North, and net a few from some Pennsylvanian?," said Mr. Lewis with a laugh, "but every vestige of them was destroyed and evtn the names are forgotten." "The letters and papers of Mr. Davis made a pretty bonfire cn the lawn out in front of his library There was a big lot of private his tory wentup in smoke then that would hava brightened general history had it been preserved Armful after ormful of material that no doubt would have been worth a geld mine to an historian was burned, and -1 stood by and poked up the fire so that not a scrap should bepreserfed. I would have liked to preserve something, an unimportant note or raemoiandum, as a memento of the man una the evunt. but Mr. Davis imposed a trust in me that nothing would have induced me to break ; he desired that everything be destryed, and tverything was destroyed.

MECCA S FAMOUS ZEMZEM, THE 8CURCES CF CHOLERA AND THE WORLD'S FAIR. New Tork Herald. The Herald baa already adverted to the danger of cbclera in Mecca, and shown that the ci y is a menace to the whole woill. The inhabitants of Mecca I've crowded together, and surround their homes with refuse and filth and foul the water supply. Among the religious ordinances, which are to the Mohammedans com mands, is that of pilgrimage to Mecca. From Turkey, from a belt of country extending eastward across Am.i to the farthest confines of Malay, and from the whole of Africa, pilgrims set out every year, turning their steps toward Mecca in obedi ence to this command. Some fall Bick by the way, many die; from from about 60,000 to over J 00,000 each year attain their end; months and sometimes years have been de voted to the task, and sufferings and hardships undergone which it would b6 difficult to describe. While Mecca may be well enough suited to the inhabitants in ordinary times, it is not in any way prepared for the strain which comes upon it during the annual pilgrimage, and if a disease such as cholera be then in troduced it straightway spreads like wildfire. The constant cause is the drinking of cholera polluted water. Not long ago a cable dispatch told of a pdgrimage of ten thousand persons, of whom more than one half never returned, having died by the way of cholera. The proceedings of the pilgrims and the way they live also tend to the spread of the disea?e. The march to Ararat, the night spent there in devotion oi in the crowded coffee booths, the stand by the Hill of Mercy, the rush to Mina, the sacrifices, the fearful stench frcm the thousands of slaught ered ai-imsl, the tawaf or seven fold circuit of the sanctuary, each of the many thousand pilgrims kissing the black stone as he passes, the blazing beat, the intolerable thirst, the re ligious fervor which leads tbem to accept everything as holy which be longs to Mecca, all drive the unfor tunate pilgrims to the consumption of the vilest fluids under, the name of water. The famous Zemzem is the reput ed "Hagar's "Well" of Mec.-a, where it is supposed she drew water for her son Isbmael. At the best of times there is but little ater in the well and the pilgrims sarra around it. Every one wishes to drink of and to bathe id these reputed miraculous waters. Each pilgrim, in turn, stripped to the waist, stands beside the wtll while a ducket of the water is poured over him ; of this he eagerly drinks as it flows from the bucket, the rest flowing over his naked body, soaking through his loin cloth and streaming back into the well to bp used again. His place is immedi ately taken by another and another, and so on, each drinking the wash ing of the rest. One dav this year there were 999 deaths in Mecca, andjrom June 8th to June 23th there were 2,201 deaths, that is in 17 days. When we consider what ib done at thin well elone these figurts are noi to be wondered at When the pilgrimage is over, the roadside for a dozen miles is stewn with the dead bodies of the faithful, killed by a draught of dirty water after all the difficulties and dangers the unfortunate people bad over come. Color painting requires the clese observation of fixed rules. The painter becomes an artist, else a daub, and benca tbere is a lack of harmony in his color.

Netilv ba'f a million copier- i f speeches on I he silver question have beri dislribu ted or tre beii ' distributed lbioupb out the country l tie uprnsp of i; cl vidual Srii aors. The cost of tbis distribution oi lI be a serious item if each .v tnat r footed Lis own bin, but the eustoui am ng tbem is to subscribe for ench others' speech es. It Jrequeiit y appenp, Lc wever, among the nior Sibertl SfEstors that by the tiuue a Senator Las -oce the rounds of til tte speeches de livtred on a particular question it is about as expensive for him as if be bad footed the bid for the circal. tion cf Lis own speech in the first mslaiice. The comile'.e list of Sen ators who have contributed to tht literature tf tLe day on the silver question in the shape of speeches issued as pamjbts is as fo'lyws; Messrs. Ailen, Al ison, Btes, Berry, Blackburn, But er, Caffery, Camden, Cmercn, Chandler, Coke, Cullom, Daiiiel, Dolph, Dubois, Faulkner, G-i.liL&er, George, Gordon, Gray, Hansborougb, Liarrip, Hitginp, Hid, Hoar, Jones of Arkansas, Lii d- siy McMiI.in, Mils, Mitchell, of Oregon, (2), Mcrnb.

Te;ler (2), f urpie (2), Vance, Vest, Voorheep, Walthall, Washburn- White of Ct-lrfortia, and Wolcolt, Of tbee speeches, twenty five have been agaiLSl repeal and twenty-four for it. Other speeches have, Low vtr, been made which do not figure in this li&t. The most expensive speech is that of Mr. Daniel, of Vir ginis, the Government Printing Oii'ice charge being 18 a thousand for it. This was due to its length. SLermau's speech cot SIC a thou sand: Alison's $12. The average spetch in length, like that cf Voor -bee?, cost $10 a thousand, these figures being tho actual crat of priiting. The greatest demand has been for the speeches of Messrs. Sher man, Allison and Mills on the re pea! side cf the question and of Messrs. Daniel, of Virginia, and Carj.eron, of Pennsylvania, in advo cacy of silver. By individual de mand is meant the lequesta of peo ple who apply for eingls copies for their own reading. Other speeches, when it come to general circula tion, have beeu printer in pamphlet form. The largest issue cf anv one speech was that of Mr. Vest, of Mis souri, against repeal, which ran up to 100,000, and is being used largely by tho PopuIUts in their campaign Next to this will probably be tbe speech of Mr. Cameron, of Pennsyl vania, which be is circulating him self and wLich is expected to ap proach close to th 100,000 mark Mr Cameron leads a personal letter. to every person asking him for a copy cf his speech as there is heavy de mand for it from the West. It is impossible to approximate eveu the Lumber of copies of the speech of Mr. Dani-1 that have been nut in circulation, for thd reason that it haB been reprinted and cir cuiated in exctediugiy large num btrs for distribution throughout Virginia in the campaign. At the government printing effice an edi tiou of 30,000 has been run off, and a similar number has been printed of tLe key-note speech of Mr. Voor bees early in Ine debate. J.ne num ber printed cf other speeches is about as follows: Allinson, 20,000; Sherman, 15,000 ; Vance 12,000 ; Faultier, 15,000; Hill, 20,000; Hoar. 10.000. Many of the more recent spetcLes have not yet ap peared in pamphlet form, although they will soon be scattered through out the country. CLEAN THE WAGONS FRE QUENTLY. Anv vehicle that is allowed to re main apatlered with mod for weeks and tnontLs is wrongly treated. The luster of the varnish rapidly deadens the od is absorbed from the paint aLd when tht dirt is removed by washing, the vehicle presents a grimy appearance, uriving a wagon covered with mud when the reads are in good condition presents to tbe observer that jou either are shiftless or extremely busy. How ever, if you are busy with your work, and, of course, attending to it, for the money or benefit to be gained thertby,you would find it a paying investment to spend an hour's time in removing tbe mud, also proptrly oiling the axles of both heavy and light vehicles. In washing a wagon it is best to apply water to the mud dy suiface several moments before the sponge is used. If a force pump or hose can be used most of the dirt1 can be thus removed, and will not scratch the surface, as tbe saud on a sponge or rag will do. A SPIDER FA KM. A New Industry Which has Taken Ro t in Chattanooga. Many will be inclined to dU- i credit tbe stitement that spider j rai-ing la an ebtablisned industry in Cbattauooga, and is being suc cessfully coi ducted by Earurst Rey ber, the proprietor of tbe Enterprise battling work on Uowart street. Mr Reyber estimates that between 5,000 and 6,000 of tbee insects make their home in this bottling depirt- ment, which occupies a large room probably 60 feet square. Tbe ceiling is firly covered with thousands upon thousands cf little patches of fibery material within which the insects nest and lay their e ga. At this seaet n they spend little time in their nests, but in the daytime bids in dark, out of-ibe-way cracks and corners, but in easy command of their woven snares. Spider weba are everywhere, spaning the space between floor and ceiling or spread about the machin ery, in front of the window every where in fact, the bus-y weavers can find a t lace from which to bang their network. A big corner of the room is be sides given up to the insects, which hava apparently divided the space iu'.o many four-walied apartmests. Mr. Reyber is a pleasant and in telligent talker and a shrewd ob serve. Said he: "Those creaturers know more than a great many peo ple. 1 keep them because they wage such constant war on flies, cock roaches and other " such vermin which are vary troublesome to me and wh:ch are attracted by the sirups, suar, etc, used in the bot tlir g business. "A spider never cares for sweet things nor pops into my vats or bottles Flies and cockroaches are nature's scavenger?, but those spi ders watch evry one that ap proaches like hawks and soon lure him into their tiieshea. I neyer dis turb them when I can hep it, ex cept to feed tbem occasionally. "They appear to know my call and will come when cabed and crawl upoa my hand or take a fly from my fingers. They are tame and Lave never bitten me, though I couldn't promise as much to a stran ger. 'This spider is a hibernating nni mal and shuts him.elf up during most e f the' winter in those little nests you see stuck like mud doubs i ou tbe ceiling. When winter comes I brush away ail these webs, for the spiders prefer to weave new webs every spring.7' As a cow must be milked every day, ibis wary end provident little creature must unravel each sprin tbe silken fabric that is stored in its bedy. He does not make hi appearance till May, when tbe flies have laid their eggs and hatched their fiist voung, eUe ine lly crop wculd soon give out. Meantime the hundreds or eggs wbieh each female spider laid dur ing tbe previous Summer and Full have been going tnrougb a process of incubation, and now tnrn out with tb6 elder one3 to seek a Lying for themselves. Mr. Reyber has encouraged the insects to harbor in his establish ment for two years pa-t, and fiids the spider of such practical udlity as to be almost indispensable. Chattanooga Times. MITES IN A POULTRY HOUSE Turn out the fowls some coel or damn dav. and then close all the a ' cracks in the house excopt the door. Then take a kettle of live coals and place on the ground in the centre, but if there is a wood floor lay a flat stone in. on which set; the kettle. Throw a half pound of enlpbur upon tbe coals and abut the door, and leave tbe Louse elosed for a few hours, and we wili venture no more lice or mites wid b found in it for weeks thereafter. If the house is not tight enough to admit of through fumigation in the manner described, then clean as li as you can, and whitewash with fresh lime, mixing in a liberal quantity of sulphur into all the cracks, and apply kerosene oil to the roosts. The house should be well aired before tbe fowls are admitted, and well ventilated at night. We have never known the sulphur "cure" to fail if properly- applied. Poultry Whrld.

After the (all wheat i s wn, on most f-rrms one team will do all of the work rt qjfi ed during tLe f 1 aud j winter. It is not bt-st to seil oil the; fcVlro Ifiuriu i l . flic fo'.l on 1 hnv .'rain ' in the spring. It is better t win ter the idl- horses as eonom'ctl y a possible, taking care if course to keep them in ood conditicn. With all kinds of stock it :a poor economy to allow tLem to run down at any time and then attempt to feed up la ter on. And wLila witL the teams it is an item to feed as economically' as possible, this should not be done at tbe expense of tbeir condition, Select one team to do tbe necessa ry hauling during the winter and feed them graiu in connection with their roughness to keep them thrifty. In this way a smaller ration or, ai least, a cheaper one can be supplied to the rest and yet they be kept thrifty. it is always best to let the id'e horses run in the pastures every day that the weather will permit. They will keep healthier and thriftier on less food than if they are kept close ly confined- It is important, how ever, to provide comfortable shelter, as it will cost less to maintain ani mal beat with good shelter than to do so by feeding grain. As the pastures fail it will be a goo i plan gradually to increase the ration so as to keep thrifty. One of the best and most economical rations to give during the winter is un threshed oata run through a catting box, adding a smad quantity of bran. If tbghtiy wetted in mixing it will be more platable. One advantage iu this is that there is little or no waste, while the ration is one that supplies grain and roughness, and is one of the best to produce a good development of bone and muscle. Another good ration can be made by cutting hay and adding a small quantity of wheat bran and oilmeal. It is not always neccessary to cut all the hay, bat enough to mix with the bran and oilmeal. Better result can nearly always be obtained in this way than by fetding the material seper ately. It is usually best to give all the roughness that they will eat upcleao, but no more, as it is neither condu- cive to good health nor economical to have any kind cf feed before the stock sll the time; and yet, of rough ness at least, they should have ail that they can eat When the winter is severely ccli cornmeal can be used instead of btan. Corn, or cornmeaL is one of the best materials to feed to stock to promote warmth, and during the winter in many cases more or liS3 can be fed to a good advantage. By feeding regularly, supplying with water, and using all reasonabla care to keep them comfortable, the horses can be wintered at compara tively sma 1 cost, aai then at any time that they are wasted they wLl be ready for service. The Repnb lic. THE PEANUT INDUSTRY. New York Independent. The "goober" industry of Norfolk is unique. Here i a litils city in Virginia that has become the great est distributing center of peanuts in the world- A peanut is a pretty small item, but an annual crop of somethhg like 5,000,000 bushels, worth millions of dollars, makes a pretty big item. The demand for goobers has dcubled within the last five years, and the supply does not yet fill the growing demand. Few people know the curious uses to which the goober has been put in trade quite of late years. No other single plant raised in this country is used in so many different wajs. The Chinese say the cocoanut palm has as many use ful DiObertiee as there are days in A. a- the year. The goober is not so uni versal a? that, but it has as many valuable qualities as tbere are days in the week.

Latest U. S. Gov't Report. ABSQUUTEUV PURE A NORTH CAROLINIAN IN THE SHERMAN ACT AND PRO TROUBLE IN MEXICO. TECTION. The MooresTille Register last week ; Baltimore Sun. contained an article, copied from the 1 Senator Cameron's speech in oppo DaUs(Tex) New?, giving an ac- eition to the repeal of the Sherman, count e.f the arrest and imprisonment, act presents the history and charac at Monterey, Mexico, of Ed. Correll, ter of that act in a clear light The on the charge of murderously as- Sherman act, he shows, was a part of saulting one Bernhard Buckner, a the. gi eat system of protection inaug Polish Jew.

The former made a market Correll, who was formerly in charge (with high prices) for Eastern mann of a schocl at Tayloreville, He went i facturers, and the latter did the saras to Texas several years ago and from there to Mexico. He was manager of the Hotel de la Pliza at Monterey and also a member of the firm of Geo. Pearson & Co. It seems that be and the bar tender at the hotel, Bob Belc! . had been dickering with the i Jew, Buckner, for the purchase of a valuable diamond ring They had the price, been unable to agree on and on tLe day the trouble occurred they again went into the Jew's place to examine the ring. Shortly after- fending an essential part of the pro ward serf ams and yells were herd tectioniat scheme of 1890.

A Chicago paper observes that tbe World's fair medals are now being dealt out by the cart load- It says; The exhibitor who quits the fair with lgs than a dozen of John Boyd Thacher's brass tokens will not be in it with the generality of peotle who are showing goods at the fair. Yea- terday the jurors announced awards in parts cf three departments hor- ticultural, transportation and agri- cultural. In the horticultural de- partment tbere are nearly 600 medals given fpr fruits and berries alone, Iowa exhibitors get just forty seven medals for gooseberries, and Iowa is not much of a gooseberry State eith er. Other States have nearly a3 big a lief, and when it comes to straw berries, cherries, currants, blackber ries and small fruits it is just as bad. Medals are scattered with a prodigal hand. In the transportation depart n ent the partial list cf winners an nounced is included in group eigLty, which runs all the way from railroad tickets to a model of the new Mem pbi4 bridge. There are many Chica go winners in this list, all the locai manufacturers of cars, car-appliances, gates, switches, frogs, car wheels and the like being remembered. In tbe agricultural department awards are announced for preserved meats, sausages, meat extract?, etc. Don't commit suicide on account of your "incurable" blood disease.
