0 THE TURK AS A FIGHTER. J lie Will Ron "When He Think Ho la ( Getting Whipped. Col. Francis V. Greene, U. S. A., re tired, who was sent by this government to Russia during the last Turkish war to represent the war department at Washington, lately told of his observa tions of the Turkish army while in bat tle. "The Turks are individually good fighters," said Col. Greene. "They are fine soldiers, very obedient, fanatic in their religion and fatalists. The Turks fights up to a certain point and when he thinks matters are going against him, he will run. Not for any lack of courage, but because he thinks fate is against him. The Turkish sol diers are well armed. During the Russo Turkish war, the Turks were better armed than the Russians. They are well clothed, but the commissary and transportation systems were fatally de iective. "In numlers the peace strength is 125,000 Greeks and 150,000 Turks, and these can probably be increased to three times as many on each side. In 1877, the Turk put over 300,000 men in the field in Europe and over 100,000 in Asia, and they made a very much stronger resistance than the Russians anticipated. I think Russia put nearly half a million men in the field before the war was over. "Turkey is bankrupt, but so she wai in 1877, and that won't stop her from fighting. They will probably manage to Ixirrow enough money to buy guns und ammunition, and they will get fowl nut, nf their own country. The Turks 20 years ago fought an entirely defen sive campaign. No reason why they should not do so now. Their plan was to seize some important point and throw up fortifications which they con structed with remarkable skill, and then wait to be attacked behind their breastworks. They collected large amounts of ammunition and provisions in their forts and awaited attack. Some times their positions were burned. They were compelled to retreat, and then they would abandon all their am munitions and stores and fall back on Another line of fortifications, 20 or 50 miles in the rear." Col. Greene was asked his opinion m to the relative strength of the armies of Greece and Turkey. "There is no ques tion," he said, "that the Turks are more than a match for the Greeks. Hut the whole question is, what stand the great jwwers will take. Theyareall extremely nnxious to keep peace, because if the war is once started among the great powers it. is impossible to Bay when it will end." Detroit Free Press.

Turned I.onne In an Orchard to Save It from InvadlnK Graaahoppers, W. R. Birmingham, of Oakland, a few years ago purchased a large tract of land in the river bottom below l'ollas ky, aud has siuce put out over 18,00(1 fruit trees. There was a small orchard on the place when he purchased it, and these older trees are in full bearing, while pench trees but three and four years old have borne large crops. The soil is deep silt, and very fertile. Mr, Birmingham put in a large gasoline en gine and pump, nnil pumps water from the Sun Joaquin river to irrigate with. The orchard presents a very thrifty ajv pearnnec, and all the trees that are old enough are loaded with fruit. The other day an army of grasshop pers came down (from the hills to the southeast and invaded one corner of th. orchard. They were too young to fly much and could only hop and crawl, but they hud a voracious appetite, and within a few hours had eaten every lenf from every tree over an area of five acres. There was in tle garden tract nearly everything In the vegetable line, but the hoppers showed no preference what ever, eating everything clean as they went. SquiiNh vines that were very tunny, eacii of winch covered a space of perhaps six feet square, were eaten off clean. Strawberries were eaten without cream, and every berry and vegetable in the garden went to fatten grasshoppers. And there were mil lions; upon millions of hoppers und hop pers. They nre not of the 17-year va riety either, but just common, every day foothill grasshoppers with amouu lain appetite. As their wings nre not large enough to enable them to Indulge the disposition so prevalent in both man and animal to hurry yi to other lo calities In search of greener or better pastures, they just hop and crawl upon the trees and vines, and eat. and eat. and eat. It does seem as if they cau fat for 2 hours without a rest. Mr. llirmingham at once put an ndV vertisement in the Republican that he wanted a thousand turkeys. A wagon load of turkeys passed through Fresno recently en route for l'ollasky, but he wants all he can get. As an experiment Mr. llirmingham mixed with a quart of middlings and a quart of bran one pound of arsenic and set the mixture before the invading army. They ntt with a relish and marched onward, right on. Ho says lie didn't find a dead grasshopper. Two years ago the hoppers invaded the name orchard. Mr. llirmingham found a J'ortugueKe who had a band o' 700 turkeys, aud ut once made arranp ments with him to bring his turkey down to the orchard and camp there The owner of the turkeys had several well-trained shepherd dogs, and with their aid 25 turkeys were allotted to each row of trees, and herded slowly along, eating hoppers, as they went. Men were sent in advance to slinke the hoppers from the trees, and the tur keys did the reBt, The honners were totally destroyed and the orchard reuo (Cal ) Republican.

I do not know what I waa playing. Or what I was dreaming then; But I struck one chord of music Like a sound of a great Amen. It flooded the crimson twilight, Like the close of an angel's psalm, And it lay on my fevered spirit With a touch of infinite calm. It quieted pain and sorrow, Like love overcoming strife; It seemed the harmonious echo From out discordant life. It linked all perplexed meanings Into one perfect peace, And trembled away into silence As if It were loth to cease. I have sought, but seek it vainly, That one lost chord divine, That came from the soul of the organ, And entered into mine. It may be that death's bright angel Will speak in that chord again; It may be that only in heaven I shall hear that grand Amen! A. A. Proctor. HOW TO GO IT ALONE. After Ella Wheeler Wilcox's "Laugh and the World Laughs with You." Drink and the gang will drink with you ; Swear oft' and you'll go it alone; For the jolly bum who drinks your rum Has a quenchless thirst of his own. Feast, and your friends are many; Fast, and they eut you dead; They'll not get mad if you treat them bad, So long as their stomachs are fed. Steal, it you gobble a million; For then you can furnish ball; It's the genteel thief who gets out on leave While the needy one goes to jail. The Theatre From the Inside. Tbat there are five thousand theatres in America, and that one million and a half people attend them each week-day night, spending seventy milliona of dol lars a ear on the tb atre going, are the surprising facts with whiob Mr. Frank lin Fyles, tbe dramatio editor of the New York Sun, will open an important series in the next issue of Tbe Ladies Home Journal. Tbe series will be oalled 'The Theatre and its people," and will run through seven numbers of the mag azine, lavishly illustrated with pictures made by twelve different artists. Tba artioles will treat of every phase of tbe theatre, the play and tbe actor, from the inside, and will tell bow a theatre ii managed ; tbe actual money which playa have made; bow an actor is trained and what tbe actors are actually paid ; bow a play is written and what tbe antbora re ceive; bow a play ia rehearsed; tbe first nigbt of a play , bow tbe actress "make up" and wbat tbey use; and in a minute way tbe two last artioles will abow wbat goes on behind the eoenea on tbe stage during a performance. It ia a curious faot tbat tbia will be the first time that the theatre and tbe aotor have ever been so exhaustively treated in a magazine, and that there ia no book on tbe subject in existence. RemarkabU Rescue. Mrs, Michael Curtain, Plainfield, III., makes the statement that sbe caught oold, whiob settled on her lungs; she was treated fur a month by her family physician, but grew worse.

Mount in which the former called the attention of the latter to the neglected grave of Nancy Hanks, mother of Abraham Lin coln, hiis nttracted attention from all over the country to the grave. It ia located on a hill ot gradual ascent and ia right in the middle of the woods, about a mile from Lincoln City, a little station on the Air Line rond in Spencer county, I ml. It is inclosed by an iron fence, which separates it from a num ber of other graves around it, and lias a neat hendstone which gives the name, nge, etc., of tbe occAipant. An inscrip tion abo says: "Erected by a Friend of Her Martyred Son, 1879." It ia com paratively isolated, and any Improve ment made in its surroundings would not prove of any great value. In order to fittingly honor tbe dend tbe people of that vicinity suggest that the remains be taken up by the state and relnterred at Indianapolis, or that the United States reinter them in some national cemetery. A tt.OOO phaf t could be placed over it where it now stands and ten persons in a year would not see it unless they made a apecir.1 trip there. NEW WESTERN IDEA.

Without it, wedlock ia a summer field that never blooms, a flower that never bulls, a night without stars, a sermon without a ben ediction, a prayer without au Amen. There never was a husband worthy of the name, who did not aspire to be the father and the grandfather of healthy, capable children to hand down his name and the fortune accumulated by the sweat of his brow, from generation to generation. There never was a wife fit to bear that noble title, who did not wish to wear womanhood's most glorious crown, the sceptre of motherhood. Thousands of wedded couples, otherwise happy, fall thort of wedlock's greatest happiness lie cause they are childless. In the majority of cases, this is because the wife, through ignorance or neglect, suffers from weak ness and disease of the organs distinctly feminine. For women who suffer in this way there ia one great medicine that does hot fail to accomplish its purpose. It is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts directly on the delicate organ concerned and makes them strong, healthy, vigorous, virile and elastic. It allays inflammation, heals ulceration, soothes pain and tones the shattered nerves. It fits for wifehood and motherhood. It quickerw and vitalizes the distinctly feminine organism. It ban ishes the maladies of the expectant months and makes tiahy's inluxluotioii to the world easv and almost painless. It iiuuirs the little new-comet's health and nourishment in plenty It is the best supportive tome foi tuustug niotheis. Mrs. Jennie Parks, of Marshall. S(oWe Co .

This novel performance consisted In first measuring the trousers and then his own body from the waist-line upward, adding the results. By this mathematical process, indeed, Steve had been known to gain as many as 18 inches but then he had cheated. The chalk line he drew upon his own body indicated a waist un duly long, while the trousers, descending from a corpulent first wearer, were deep in the crotch and aspired nearly to his armpits, so that the space of several inches was thus twice reckoned. Another advantage Steve always claimed was that his bushv hair should not be pushed down. My hair i. myself," he would protest, "des as much as any yether part o' me. How can any man be counted tall when he's cheated at bofe ends dat-away?" And so Steve tried to "get even" by cheating in the middle. When questioned in regard to his height, as he constantly was, he would reply, "Well, range various, 'cordin' to fairness an' ca'oulation. When I gits my rights, I'm 'long about llx foot."
