PRAYS FOR CLEVELAN:
Remarkable Scene in the Ho
of the Missouri Legislature.
Jefferson City, Mo., March ?
The democratic legislature
Missiouri to-day gave Gre
Cleveland a parting salute on
retirement. The senate chap]
the Rev J. C Given, at the ot
ing of the session prayed :1
"Save the soul of Grover Ch
land, and now that he is o
more in private life, 0 Lord,
rect his footsteps bick to t
straight and narrow path fi
which he has wandered. O Li
keep Grover Cleveland cle
nd when he dies take him u
Thy self in heaven. God Almigi
bless our incoming president, a
may he bring with him that hoi
tiful prosperity we have b<
promised."
The boom of the cannon h
put the house in a flutter of exci
mont, and just at its climax (
Crisp rose and moved the 1
house take a recess to celebr;
the outgoing of Cleveland. "I
this," shouted Col Crisp, "becai
Cleveland has never served 1
j party, his country oi his God.'
"The gentleman from Jacks
moves that the house now take
recess until 2 o'clock to celebn
the retirement to private life

THE SUBJECT, PENSIONS.
A Temperate Appeal I rom ai
Old Soldier.
MR. EDITOR : Please give me
small space in your valuable co
umns for a few words in regard 1
pensioning the old soldiers. A
old soldier myself, I feel that
must express an opinion on tl
subject.
As is the duty of the true pi
triot, when our country called w
responded promptly went forth 1
battle with the foe, We suffere
hunger av.d cold, long, fatiguin
marches, and thousands of thos
who left home hopeful and buoy
ant now slumber on the fields o
Virginia, having given their live
for their country. Those that sui
vive are now old mon, afflictei
with rheumatism or old wounds
and no longer able to work. Thes
survivors Bhould be pensioned
and in my opinion they could bi
pensioned if the State officers' sal
aries were cut. Some are pension
ed, but there are many left oui
who are needy, disabled, and de
serving. Now, Mr. Editor, I think
that the appropriation should be
increased so as to include all, and
that the money of the State now
being wasted in other directions
should be devoted to this more
worthy object. Not long ago I
saw that $700 had betn appropri
ated by the legislature for a barn
at the Governor's mansion, and
many of the other appropriation*
were equally extravagant. Is it a
wonder that nothing is left to aid
the old soldier? When men are
running for office they say much
about the old soldiers, and the ve
terans whoop 'em up and elect
them to office, yet once they get
the office they think no more about
the old soldier but only about put
ting money in tthe.r own pockets.
There are two old soldiers at tho
poor-house-Mr. Coleman and Mr.
Booth. If theso were pensioned
they would not be thrown on the
county but oould havo a quiet,
pleasant home with friends. They
are cared xor at the poor-house, it
is true, and never complain, yet 1
think it a disgrace to the county
and State that they are there.
The survivors of the war are
fast passing away. Geuerals, ma
jors, captains, and the humble
private, are one by one answering
to a higher roll call. Let those
who remain with us a few years
longer receive a pension suTicienl
to give them needed comforts in
their old age, aud let our legisla
tors see to it that ott are remerr
bered.

DOGS OF INTELLIGENCE.
A Strict Sal>bats:r.<an and a Traveler Ia
HanxoiiiH.
The Ladies* Kennel Journal consists
of a number of dog anecdotes select
ed from many sources, new and old.
The stories ure arranged to illustrate
different features of the dog's character.
Here is an example of what is called a
dog's "tenacity of impression, " vouched
for by an Edinburgh minister:
"One sacrament Sunday the minister
if t his house to the care of the servants,
;rho thought it a good opportunity to
give a party. During the day the dog
(a Newfoundland) accompanied them
through the garden, and indeed wher
ever they went, in the most attentive
manner and seemed well pleased. In
the evening, when the time arrived that
the party meant to separate, they pro
ceeded to do so, but the dog, the instant
they went to the door, interposed, and,
placing himself before it, would not al
low one of them to touch the handle.
On their persisting and attempting 1
use force, he became furious and in a
menacing manner drove V. ::i back into
the kitchen, where ho kept ;hcm until
the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Simpson."
, From which it would appear that
some dogs are Sabbatarians. At all
events, he seems to have been of opinion
that revelers in a manse on sacrament
Sunday were out of place.
Another story, illustrating the reason
of a dog, is quoted as having been told
by William Robson of Penshaw, the
owner of the animal. The dog was in
the habit of going about in hansom cabs
with his master. One day, after being
lost, he went home by hinioclf in a
hansom.
"The cabman rang for his fare, and,
thinking he had somehow captured the
runaway, I inquired how and where he
found him. 'Oh, sir,' said cabby, 'I
didn't hail him at all; he hailed me. I
was standing close by St. Janies' church
looking out for a fare, when in jumps
the dog. I shouts through the winder.
He wouldn't stir. So I gets down and
tries to pull him cut and shows him my
whip, but he sits still and barks as
much os to say, "Go on, old man." As
I seizes him by the collar I reads his
name and address. My fine gentleman
settles himself with?his head just a-look
ing out, and I drives on till I stop? nt
this gate. Then ont jumps my passen
ger, a-clearing the doors, and walks in
os though he'd been a regular fare.1 "
The driving in cabs dog is by no
means a rare variety. It is told of Lady
Ashburnham's collie that, af ter jumping
into a handsoni, he so piainly intimates
that he wants his collai- read (hut, as
one cabman said, "Blowed if he didn't
ask me to. "-AYcstiniuster Budget
AS AN ARMY RATION.
Beans Briefly Countered by on Old Army
Veteran.
"Take it altogether, " said the old
soldier, "I think 1 liked beans the best
of the anny rations. Hard bread, of
course, was essential, and wo expected
to get that anyway, but I am speaking
now of the comparative luxuries on the
army bill of fare. I should prefer corned
beef, if that issued in the army had been
uniformly of a desirable quality. But
often it was of a hardness more like
that of quartz and of a saltiness pasijia
-?mhtydfcT?r i?Cd, and-we got DJT
sale pork than any other meat, andifL
was most always not of the best In
fact, no old soldier will ever forget the
salt pork of the army. But his recollec
tions of it will not be surrounded by an
aurora borealis of delight.
"Not everybody liked beans, but ac
cording to my notion they were the best
of the army rations, all ihings consid
ered. If we had a piece of pork to put
in the kettle, so much the better. But
wo had 6alt anyway, and bean soup,
with hard bread to break into it, and a
cup of coffee made a meal that had de
cided elements of hopefulness in it.
"It is true that sometimes when we
had beans day after day for days together
some of the men would get tired of
them. But you would grow tired ol
ortolans, wouldn't you, if you had tex)
many of them?
"I always used to be glad when we
had beans, and to this day I Uko no%v
and then a dish of beun soup, and 1
never eat it without pleasant recollec
tions of the army.1 '-New York Sun.
A Poet's Chivalry.
The poetry of Longfellow reveals its
author's sensitive, chivalrous spirit, sc
that those familiar with his verses will
read without surprise this story told by
Mrs. Phelps-Ward in her "Chapters
From a Life:"
Longfellow was reading aloud a poem
one day to Mme. Modjeska, whose eyes
filled with tears as the reading pro
ceeded.
"I shall never forget," observes Mrs.
Phelps-Ward, "the tone and manuel
with which he turned toward her. ' Oh,1
he cried, 'I meant to give you happi
ness 1 And I have given you pain.1
"His accent on the word 'pain' was
like the smart of a wound. "
Nerve Strain.
"It must be a good deal of a strain to
run a trolley car,1 ' said the talkative
man on the platform.
"You bet it is," said tho motorman.
"W'y, when I go along fer two or free
weeks without runnin over anybody I
git so nervous I can't eat nor sleep. "
Cincinnati Enquirer.
Perhaps no country in the world is
better suited for the cyclist than Hol
land, where you may run for miles
without meeting with an incline that
even suggests a hill. In The Hague
cycling is a universal amusement, horse
exercise for ladies being the occasional
exception. _

I have run abont the Uni restates a
good ?cal fer the last 30 yearad havo
made memory notes of suchiimatic
peculiarities as have comeruidmy ob
servr.ticn.
The place having the widesungc of
teniporuturo of any with wh* I am
familiar is Fort Keogh, in thetellow
stoue valley. Kot infrequent] in the
winter the mercury tumbles den to 50
degrees below zero, and it e been
known in summer to climb 1 to 120
degrees above. Here is an extree range
of 170 degrees, and yet peoplenanage
to live very comfortably there je year
round. In tho early summer fe grass
on the plains and hills turns btvn and
yellow, and all green vanishes om the
wide landscape except where fringe
of cottonwood trees skirts a watccourse.
It is a peculiarity, of the extrae high
temperature in the arid regionsaat you
do not perspire at all-that isyou do
s.ot sensibly perspire. The nisturo is
all evaporated from your kin t fast as
it is formed by the extreme dmess of
the air. The heat is not neai7 BO op
pressive, however, as it is at a anpera
turo of 80 or 90 degrees alongthe At
lantic seaboard. If you are irioors or
under tho shade of a tree, yon re quite
comfortable.
Anything that will break te. fierce
rays of the sun is sufficient t Believe
you from all oppression from he high
temperature. Traveling some jars ago
across thc hot, billowy plain of he great
basin of the Columbia with a amping
party looking up a route for a ailroad,
we came to a huge columnarrock of
black basalt. The day was inteeely hot.
We stepped the teams, and, browing
ourselves down cn tho shady sdo of thc
rock, wc recalled the phrase imho Bible
about "the shadow of a greatrock in a
weary laud" and realized tint a little
shade meant aa much to the people cf
arid Palestine as lo aa tired tnvckrs ?A
arid America.
The hottest place in the fJuitid States
is unqat'S.ionab'y D.-ath vflley, in
southern California, It is abou;200feet
below the sea levsl and is rimmed
around with black, bare mtWtuiiis.

iug of the deadly heat, and who pre
served their lives by lying all day in Iho
water of a little siveamihai came oct c
the mountains and vus Keon* dried v?p iu
the fierce rays ol the sun. They were
glad to escape nuder the cooling diuuts

The rainiest place in the C;nti"l Stutts
is Noah bay, ou the strati o? Enea, in
tho stare cf Washington. It actually
rains every day in thc year, r?nd the
total annual p.-. v. imitation is nearly 100
inches. There : ; un lucian reservation
on the bay. Thc natives have a ve ry
pretty knack of making ornamental
basins and carving wooden bowls, which
they decorate with high colors.
The mest rem ar killie climatic barrier
in the United State.'; is that of , tho Cas
cade mountains, in Washington] In win

you, and, whirling down thc western
slope of thc mountains, in lessjthan an
hour you meet the full spring. Tlhe grasp
is green, waterfowl swim on tifie rivera
and bays, the crows- are hold?g their
annual conventions in the tree tc ps with
much oratorical clamor, and wt eu you
arrive at Tacoma you find the flowers
blooming in thc dooryards. The change
seems magical and :.s as great asl if }-ou
should start from Chicago in January
and travel io th^ gulf of Mexico, yet the
whole distance you have traveled to
bring about this wonderful transforma
tion is les3 lhau 1U0 miles.
Thc mest peculiar climatic region
with which I am familiar is thelPuget
sound basin, in the state of Washington.
It is separated from the ocean on tho
west by I he rugged snow clad raige of
the Olympic mountains, and its eistern
boundary is the still loftier range it tho
Cascades. The sound is connected with
the Pacific by the broad strait of ?Juan
de Fuca, and up this strait pours agreat
volume of moist air, brought b. the
Japan current from far out to sea- The
mountains of Vancouver island < 1 one

of the strait au enormous fuune and
the moisture laden winds aro cone used
against tho coid, snowy ranges on ?(her
hand and are precipitated in fit uent
showers upon the shores of the scud.
It rarely snows there, but it rains ; lit
tle almost every day from Octotfr to
June. Thc result is to produce a
vegetable growth in the forest cons:
of immense trees-firs, hemlocks, sphcea
and cedars-and cf nndergrowl BO

force your way through it without ard
