' The Unit month of the California Midwsnter International Exposition has closed in n bize of glory, and with a record of nearly half a million visitor ince the gates were opened. With the ingle exception of the Rnssian display, which is not yet mite complete, the ex position ia all in apple-pie order, ond it challenges the criticism of Its patrons. An interesting fact has thus far been developed in connection with the patron age that hits been given the exposition. ibe proportion of railway coupon ad missions is much larger than hail gener ally been anticipated. It was noticed particularly on Washington's birthday, when 35,000 people panged the turnstiles, that nearly one-eighth of this number came to Bun Francisco by mil, and panged in on the admission coupons which they had purchased at the rail way ticket office. It had been thought that the great bulk of outside putronugo would come later In the season, and if a proportionate increase ia developed here, a wag the case in Chicago, the later attendance at the exposition will exceed every extKition. The TM-oplo of Ran Francisco, antl a great many residents here of remote parts of the great empire state fi tho Pacific, say to themselves thu ' .re ia plenty of time foJjrWa"T,tn'-b fair, and that they will vft"! monopy pos. sihle attraction huf T "ilrep.-ired. Jleanwhilu, however, Sun Fraiicincans turn out on Niicciul ocensions just for the fun of the thing, though they are postponing their careful inspection of the exhibits until another timo. Ilenco it Is that the rxiectutiou of the manng. ment that the retieated visits of people within the radius of a few miles of .Sun Francisco may Iw reliod on to swell tho guto receipts in sure to bo realized, and buy continues to bo made on the sunny midwinter days by making special gala occasions of holidays and of other days Where clrciiiiiHtunceg wurrnnt the effort. Washington's birthday proved to be M pe.fect a day us one could wish to ee. it was clear and mild as the H7tli of Jnit:i;, when the exposition was loruiully opened. I here wag a general rnsh to the exposition grounds, uud everybody seemed to bo delighted.

Another attraction is tube added for a perioil of five wccliii, coiiiniencing on March M, in the engagement of S push's famous band.

OLD WORLD CABLES. SALISBURY'S AMENDMENTS TO PARISH COUNCILS BILL. The Ituaalan-Geriaan Allianre Debate 1'pon Its Approval Opened In the German Reichstag, and Much Oppo sition Develops Gladstone. Beklix. In the Reichstag debate on the KuHi-o-Gennan commercial treaty was opened. Von Mirbach on behalf of the Conservatives gave an explanation of the reasons w hich had decided the party not to suptxirt the government, contending the treaty would prove an injury to German husbandry greater than the advantages which could possi bly follow its passage. Von liibiestein declared German manufacturers and merchants secured under the treaty an estimable boon. Husbandry profited nothing by the present customs tariff, and agrarians should direct their efforts toward influencing federal governments in favor of practical solicitude for Ger man husbandry. The government could not surrender at discretion to the de mands of the agrarians. Count von Moltke opposed the treaty in the name of the Iiiiiteriulists. Kickart urged the adoption of the treaty, saying the .en trance of Itussia into the F.uropean com mercial community would have impor tant consequences. OOII HAVK lltKI.A.NK.

Underdraining may be mentioned as one of the most beneficial improvements on a farm. Low, level and heavy lands, or land that is cut up with swamps and marshes, also rolling land with streaks or hollows between the ridges, should be nnderdrained. Money expended in ditching such lands (if the work be prop erly done) will be tpeedily repaid with interest. In ditching the first thing to look alter is a good outlet, for no matter how wed the rest of the work be done, if there is not a good outlet, it is all a failure. When buying tile one should first consider bow many branches on his farm will enter into the main diUh and then buy tile large enough to carry all the water as fast as it gets to it. When planning fur underdraining a farm ar range the main ditch so as to take in the lowest hollows and where the lay of the land will take the longest string of tile. Try and have the main ditch about three feet deep in the shallowest places; this will give a good fall to the branches. The object in underdraining is to loosen heavy, loggy soil and to remove surface water as soon as possible. To do this care should be taken to get the ditch about the right depth. For branch drains 1 think from two to three feet is the proper depth. In any ditch the fall should lie evenly distributed throughout its entire length; it should not have more fall than necessary part of the way and the rest be on a level, neither should part of the tile be full of water and the rest empty. In case of quicksand in the bottom boards should be placed under the tiles to prevent their settling, for, if the tiles are not kept even, a large per centage of their capacity will be lost. In making turns never turn square, but al- wa) un a circle luige enougli mat you can use common tile for making the turn; for large tile use a larger circle than for small. Never have a branch form a right angle with the main ditch, but let it curve or angle toward the out let. In running a ditch to a low sag 1 think it does better work to go through the sag and end in the opKsite hank. Now alxiut the timo to ditch, I w ill give my way. I put in the main ditch when ever 1 can best spare tune and w hen it digs easiest. Alter this is done I choose a field of sod nearest the outlet of the main ditch, from which I am going to take a succession of crops, and drain the field in the fall, ditching it so that the low and high ground w ill be ready to work at the same time in the spring." By doing it in the fall the freezing and thaw ing of winter nud spring loosens the soil and opens the poies through the ground ; consequently the ditch is in better work ing older unit the ground in bettor shape for use in the spring than if I waited until spring before ditching. Of the many advantages obtained by under draining I will inetition but u few: 1. What is more unsightly than what might bo a nice field or farm, that is all cut up with water holes? Underdraining re moves these. 2.

It is very important to those having fruit trees to U'gin early the light against the pests which are sure to be with us the coming sea on. The eggs of the leaf roller are laid very plentifully on the trees, and nro most of them found on the trunk and large limbs. It is but a few minutes' work to destroy these eggs on a tree by simply drawing' the buck of n knife or something similar over the egg clusters and crushing them. As each cluster represents from twenty to fortv future worms, in this case surely a stitch in time saves nine.

Neither f them was a cherub. Mr. Greeley, good man! said "damn" more than once as we regret to remember, and when be called Raymond "the little villain" that cool headed man retorted in language j which many people have forgotten. The two did not get along very well together when one was editor of The Tribune and the other among his assistants, nor after-: ward when they were editors of rival . papers, though both were of the same party. -Neither of them was an "ideal editor," or a very deep thinker, or a first class statesman or a notable scholar. Greeley was a stronger and more stirring writer than Raymond, but Ray mond was a far more skillful editor than Greelev. Greeley was more fervent in mind than Raymond; Raymond was more judicious and nimble than Greeley. Raymond, when he was a member of the legislature, and the speaker of the as sembly, and the lieutenant governor of the state, and a member of congress, and a delegate to state or national conven tions, gave evidence that he was greatly more ingenious in politics than Greeley, who, indeed, during the brief period of his service in congress, did not win dis tinction. Raymond always kept up a close intimaoy with those astute political managers. Tliurlow Weed and William U. Seward, while Greeley was enable to stay long in the "political firm of Sew ard, Weed & Greeley," in which, as he said when he left the concern, he had been a junior partner."' Greeley was more of a philosopher than Raymond, who, in turn, was more of a man of affairs than Greeley. Greeley was often compared with Benjamin Franklin, though he did not possess Franklin's scientific quality; Raymond might be compared, in many respects, with Franklin Pierce, though he was not of Pierce's politics. Greeley had certain eccentricities of manner and action; Ray mond was always regarded as a very level headed man. Both of them be longed to the antislavery school in poli tic; but Greeley's fervor in the cause fur surpassed Raymond's. Greeley had iu his earlier years been a champion of "sociul reforms" which were bitterly denounced by Raymond, who, however, iu the latter years of his life, began to look with favor upon certuin theories of socialism. Greeley was negligent in his dress; Raymond was natty. Both Gree ley and Ruymond were founders of New York daily papers which still exist, but neither of which is now characterized by the traits of its founder. We agree with The Kansas Commoner that none of the New York papers now possesses the individuality of Greeley's Tribune or Raymond's Times, and no one of them can possess it, for both of these memorable individuals long ago departed for "the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns" after it had been their lot "to grunt and sweat ,nnder a weary life," but that is not a reuson why we should despair ol the Americau press.

A ROYAL LOVE STORY.. VERIFICATION OF THE SAYING THA? LOVE LEVELS ALL RANKS. V Extract. From tlie Diary of Prlncei. Eliia both or C-ivaria Describing the Coarse ot Her Affection Fur the Handsome but Humble Lieutenant Seefrled. Probably no event of recent times has done to much to revive the ancient tradi tion that "love levels all ranks," and tocoo vince a cynical world of the power of tras affection to surmount the barriers of pride, precedent and prejudice that divide royally from the people, as the union of Princes. Elizabeth of Bavaria with Baron Seefried von Buttenheim, a humble lieutenant In the Bavarian footguards. Princess Elizabeth is the granddaughter of the emperor of Austria, and as isthe case with most princesses a royal marriaae was planned for her. Accordingly she was no tified in due season that an alliance had been arranged for her with the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir presumptive to the Austrian throne. But the young princess demurred. She had met at a court ball in Munich six years ago Lieutenant von See-fricd-Buttenheim, the handsomest man and one of the poorest men in the German army, for whom she conceived a sudden and ar dent affection. Indeed the veracious court gossipers declare that it was a case of "love at first sight." Of course F.lizabeth, being remarkably unworldly for a princess, desired to marry her "squire of low de gree," and of course the match was violently op posed by her royal rela tives. The faithful priu cess fiually appealed to SEEFRIED. the emperor, and the doting grandfa ther interfered in her favor, with the result that the lov iniicounle were mar ried at Genoa and are now on their honey moon. That is one story. Now we receive from Vienna sundry sin ister rumors to the effect that the wedding was not regularly celebrated, as aforesaid, but that the couple eloped mid thus forced the reluctant recognition of the royal fum ily. At any rate it is certain that, however it was accomplished, the princess is in posses sion of her handsome lieutenant, and a sym pathetic world will unite in the sincere wish that he may make her happy. It is believed that Emperor Francis Jo seph will give a large Tyrolean estate to Baron Seefried and raise him to the dignity of count after he has left the German army and joined that of Austria. The linron is the son of Huron Ludwig von Seefried-Biit-tenheim, chamberlain to the Bavarian court. The family is ancient and honor able, but is now very poor. Seefried is 34 years old, and Princess Elizabeth is 20. A Berlin newspaperwhicb claims to have private sources of information published the other day some "leaves from the diary of Princess Elizabeth of Bavaria," vhi9b""" shed some light on the unsophisticated character of that young woman. Her con fessions possess the peculiar frankness which characterized the diary of Varie Bushkirtsi ff. Here are some passic s 1 hut give her love story in her own won : Munich, Jan. 8, IRP8.

Well, I must content myself wiih embracing my dear grandfather iu my dreams. Ah, I wish ho were herd Feb. 14, 18SS-I danced last night with real gentlemen, though none of them had a mus tache.

They are uniting fun of us of me at least, March ID, 1S8S-I wonder what his majesty, my dear grandfather, at Vienna, would say If he knew that there Is somebody in the world I love as much as himself. If anybody had told me a year ago that such a thing could happen, I would have laughed at the very thought.

And while all this ceremony was be. lug enacted I trembled inwardly. I felt as If I were going to cry. A wondrous feeling over came me when I saw lilm appear before me ulm whom I thought lost. Uod.
