Gentlemen: I have just, .returned from starting the San ders double disk plow at Junction As you well know I, h?ve always thought the Sanders disk plow all right but I must confess ! was somewhat-surprised today when we started It in land that had not been plowed for two years and had been stocked heavy since, it was just as hard as a roadbed. The plow was a' double disk, as the man had four small horses and wanted to plow deep, he concluded to. take one disk off and Use only three horses, which he did. , .We put the p'ow' down 8 Inches (actual measure ment) and to say it did the work, is putting it mildly, and to say, that the farmer as well as Mr. Wiihelm, the agent, were pleased is putting it lightly, they were simply amaz ed as well as myself.- .-,. . . -v .,.. I enclose you ordf-r of Wiihelm & Sons for two more double disk plows. In conclusion I will say the Sanders plow is head and shoulders above anything 1 have seen.

The golden grasshopper on tbe towot of tho ltoyul Exchange has been foi nearly three and u half centuries s London lundmurk as familiar as thf cross on St. I am s or the dragon or 1 Bow church steeple. I Sir Thomas Uresliani, a royal agent I In th"e successive reigns, founded the: exchange In the reign of Elizabeth. He i erected at his own expense n beautiful structure In the Flemish style of archi tecture, with shops on the first floor. A ' bell tower crowned by a huge grasn hopper stood on one side of the chief entrance. The hell In this tower sum-; moned the merchants at 12 o'clock noon and 0 o'clock evening. During the great tire of HSU'S the building was totally de stroyed. The statues of kings and queens which ornamented the corridors were precipitated into the enormous cel lars and with them the tower and grasshopper. Greslinm was loyally loved by the metropolis, and his generous services! were not forgotten. From tbe moun tain of debris the grasshopper was res-1 cued, and it was placed a lofty vane : of gilt brass -above the new dome sup- ported by eight Corinthian columns, and to this hour It swings to the points of the compass, perpetuating the sign and crest of the Gresham family. Tbe old clock In this tower had four dials and chimed four times daily, on Sunday, the One Hundred and Fourth Fsatni; on Monday, "God Save the King;" on Tuesday, "Waterloo March;" on Wed nesday, "There's Nne Luck Aboot the Hoose;" on Thursday, "See, the Con quering lJXomes;on Friday, JXife f - ITY COURlf ,;'aY, sept 9 mi appropriately naftett''Thie' 'Worldls i Fair Route," ."'v.'" r '.

In 1S38 fire again devastated the stately building. beginning soon nfter 10 at night, and by next moruing the clock tower alone was standing. It is significant that the last air played by the chimes before they went crashing through the tower roof, crushing the entrance arch below, was "There's Niie Luck Aboot the Hoose;" then the eight bells ceased their clanging. The grasshopper was unharmed and to this day remains, eleven feet of shimmering metal, looking down from Its perch 108 feet above the busy streets. Julian King Colford In St Nicholas. A WHISTLER PICTURE. ' The Dramatic Manner of Its Finish and an Anticlimax. Whistler was one day visited by a foreign artist an old acquaintance, with whom Whistler had not as yet quarreled. He was received with gen uine cordiality, and, artist-like, he ran round the studio looking at everything. One small picture seemed to charm him especially, and he said, "Now that Is one of your good ones." "Don't look at It dear boy." said Whistler airily, "it's not finished." "Finished!" Bald the visitor. "Why, it is the most carefully j finished picture- of youra that I have! ever seen. uou t look at It: per sisted Whistler. "You are doing in justice to yourself, you nre doing In justice to uiy picture, and you are do ing injustice to me!" The visitor looked bewildered, when WhisTler, la a the atrical tone, cried out: "Stop! I'll finish It now!" Then he procured a very small cauiel'sjiair brush, fixed it pna Special fcxcirslons to SU Louis r Auust 8. 9 and 10.

'mixed a little speck of paint on his palette, dipped tho tip of Lis brush iuto it, and then, standing otV from his picture and with the action of a fencer with his rapier, he lunged forward nnd touched the picture in one spot with his pigment. "Now it's finished." said he. "Now you maj look at it." This was all highly dramatic, and indetd very well acted, but as in the case of tome stage plays, the final act of Whistler's performance proved to be an anticlimax. The for eign artist took his leave, but, finding that he hau left his umbrella behind him, called for it next day. The serv ant recognizing him. told him that Mr. Whistler had gone out for the day. but Invited him to go to the studio and seek his umbrella. H? went there and found it but also took the opportunity of having one more look at the picture which had been "finished" for his spe cial benefit the day before, aud then he saw that the little dab of wet paint which Whistler had so dramatically put on he had afterward scrupulously wiped off hgain!
