2j0 feet above the falls. Brodie itr:pped
and had his body padded with cotton bat

was inflated to the size of fiftv-two inches
around the waist and seventy-five inches
around the chest, the head gear being also
inflated, while two steel bands protected
his body.

his paddle to Gerold and McCarthv and ! Htttd- The average product per acre for
few seconds later was shot over the center
of the Horseshoe falls. Luckily he went
over the outside of one of the falling vol

the mist and foam.
Ee was buried from view for nearly two
minutes, when, a black speck, covered
with a thick white coating, was seen bob
bing aad jumping to and fro in the boil
ing oaldroa of rushing, gurgling waters.
In a short time Brodie was caught in the
rushing waters and carried at a brisk
pace toward the American shore; aad
then all of a sudden he was hur
ried toward the Canadian shore where
John Ledger had ropas ready to
drag hiss, from the water. Ledger was
stripped and swam out 300 feet with a
rope fastened to his waist, while W. E.
Harding held the other end on shore.
Ledger, after several attemota, reached
Brodie, fastened the rope to the iron bands
around his waist and then swam ashore
and assisted in pulling the daring swim
mer ashore.
Brodie was at one? stripped. Brandy was
poured in small quantities on bis temples,
and be was rubbed and chafed. He was
insensible and blood oozed from his mouth,
nose and ears, probably from the can
cussion. For twenty minutes Brodie lav uncon
scious. Then ammonia was applied to his
nostrils, and he began to shiver and ges
ticulate with his hands. He gradually re
covered consciousness and it was then
found that his injaries were not serious, j
He expects to be able to go to Xw York
to-day.
Brodie says that after he entered the '
river he weakened and would have given
any thing in the world if he could have
reached solid ground once more. He at
tempted to get ashore by using his paddle,
when the switt current swept him back i
and turned his feet towards the brink of
the cataract When he saw that it was im- ,
possible to get out, he felt the same as a
man who was about to meet death, and
prayed for dear life. Just as he came to
the brink of the falls be became uncon-
scious through fright and remained so un- '
til he struck the water. Then he again j
lost consciousness and knew no more until

that Brodie successfully went over the

BRODIE ARRESTED.
Niagara Falls, . Y., Sept 9. Steve J
Brodie was arrested here when about to
take the four o'clock train for New York,
charged with attempting suicide, by go
ing ovor the falls Saturday morning. He
was tken before Police Magistrate Hall
and the charge rad to him. Brodie said
he did not attempt to commit suicide by
going over the falls, but to show the
world that the trip could be made, and
alo the usefulness of his rubber suit for
life saving. The magistrate said he did
not believe Brodie went over, and the j
story was a humbug. He told Brodie that
if he did not go over to say so, and he
would discharge him. or if he persisted in
saying he went over, he would go on with
the ca-e against him of attempted suicide. )
"If I tell tou I did not zo
over,'
said
Broiie, "wlil you let me go?"
Justice Hill said "Yes."
Brodie -aid: "Well, then, I did not ge
over, and I am off."
"Hold on," said the magistrate; I'm not
through with you yet"
Then he wrote the following declaration
and aked Brodie to sign it:
L Stephen Brodie, hereby declare I did
not go over Niagara Falls, and the story
of having gone over was all f jr the pur
pee of a -peculation, and untrue."
Brodie asked if that was an oath.
'Yes," said the justice.
I can not perjure myself." said Steve.
"I am a Catholic and can not sign that" j
The magistrate then told him he would
have to commence prosecution.
Brodie asked for coucsei and Alex Fraser
was summoned to watch his case. After
testimony by Police Superintendent He
Dougall and others that Brodie had told
them he had gone over the falls Louis
Ledger, who was said to have rescued
Brodie, was put oa the stand. He said he
was not at the falls with Brodie and the
newspaper men. They told him the story
about going over at the hotel. No one' could
Le found who saw Brodie go over the falls
and tin magistrate bound him over in
$500 bonds to keep the laws of the Domin
ion, especially that of not attempting to
go over the falls for one year.
Brodie furnished bail and left for the
American sid. Harding, Jerold and Mc
Carthy, of New York, who accompanied
Brodie. escaped to the American side
when they heard of Brodie's arrest and
were not present at the examination.

Warning the Clergy.
Paris, Sept 8. The Minister of Justice
has sent a circular to the Bishops of
France reminding them that the clergy
are prohibited br law from taking part in
the elections. The circular says the Gov
ern meat will unhesitatingly and vigor
ously proceed against ecclesiastics who
may overstep the lines enjoined under all
Governments since the Concordat It was
Vthe violation of thi.tw which caused the
difficulties between the civil power and

sion by the clergy of eff nses against the

KANSAS AND MISSOURI CROPS.
OaU Somewhat Damaged Bat Wheat aa
Cera Good la Kansas A Good Showiag
la Missouri -Stock Report.
Topxka. Kan., 8ept 7 Secretary Mob
ler, of the Agricultural Department, baa
isaaed the following croo renort: From
"e rJPrt of 600 correspondents of this
more or less damaged by rust and ex
posure in the shock, the damage to the
crop varying in the different counties
from 5 to 40 per cent, making the percent
age of area on which the wheat was thus
damaged 12 per cent of the total wheat
area of those counties. The previously
estimated average product per acre is
thereby reduced 11 per cent as reports
show. This reduces the previeusly esti
mated average per acre from twenty-two
to twenty bushels per acre for these
counties, and the average yield per
acre for the balance of wheat area
the 8tate now is twenty-one bushels. The
acreage of winter wheat as shown by as
sessors' returns now ail in, is 1.K0.74S
acres, which yielding twenty-one bushels
per acre gives a total product of winter
wheat for the State of 32,500. "f-S bushels.
The area of spring wheat is to S3S acres.
The average yield per acre is estimated at
sixteen bushels, making a total spring
wheat product cf 1,413.4 8 bushels aad a
grand total of winter aad spring wheat of
S3. 689,116 bushels.
OaU Our correspondents say that in
seventy-five ef the 193 counties reporting
a portion of the oats crop has been en
tirely lost by wet weather, the percentage
of loss ranging in different counties from
5 to 75 per cent, making an average per
centage ef loss in these counties of Si 5
percent This loss reduces the acreage
from which a product is obtained from
1. 69, S01 to 1.309. 69r acres. The average
product per acre as estimated by our cor
respondents is thirty bushels, which gives
a total oats product for the State of 40,
307,667 bushels.
Corn With the exception of a number
ef counties in the western portion of the
State (seventeen in all) in which the corn
acreage is very small, our correspondents
report the corn crop in very good condi
tion. Their estimated average yield per
acre range from 3 to 55 bushels. The
estimated average yield per acre for the
State is 39.4 bushels. The total corn area
for the State which heretofore has been
estimated in round numbers at 7,000,000
acres, is found to be 0,820.693 acres, as
shown by the assessors' returns, now in
for the entire State. This acreage, with
an average product of 39 2 bushels per
acre, gives a total corn product of 207.391,
165 bushels. This aggregate product is
liable to be varied during the month of
September, since the late corn is not yet
fully ma !& In a number of counties in
Southeastern and also in Central Kansas
correspondents already report damage to
the crop from continued dry weather, and
if this weather continues the total prod
uct for the State may be somewhat re
duced. THE MISSOURI RETORT.
Columbia, Ma, Sept. 7. The report of
the Missouri State Board of Agriculture
up to September 1 is as follows: Full
returns show that during the last week or
two of August a drought prevailed
throughout the State. In the northeast
ern, central and eastern central portion of
the State but little rain fell during the
month of August, only occasional light
local showers.
Corn Notwithstanding the drought,
which has seriously affected the corn
crop, especially the late planting in por
tions of the State, the outlook is now
promising for a good yield. Favorable
conditions have prevailed in the sections
of the State most largely devoted to this
crop. A large part of the early planting
is sufficiently mature to be safe.
Buckwheat The time for sowing buck
wheat is so late that it is apt to be badly
affected by the droughts so likely to occur
at this season. Such has been the case
with the present crop. I: is reported from
but fifty-one counties in the State.
Potatoes An excellent crop of early
potatoes has been secured, but those
planted late are suffering for lack of rain.
Sorghum and tobacco have improved in
condition since the last report
Broom corn is reported from sixty-five
counties, and excepting in N ortheast and
Central Missouri the condition of the crop
is excellent
Fruits The condition of the apple crop
has not changed materially from what it
was at the time of the last report The
general crop will be light, but there seems
to be a wide difference in the quality and
prospective yield even in neighboring or-
cbards.
Hogs The returns indicate a marked
decrease in the number of bogs on band
for feeding purposes and a low condition
as to weight and size. Losses by cholera
and other swine diseases have been heavy,
and this fact in addition to the good
prices for hogs wh'ch have prevailed dur
ing the past year, causing tne farmers to
sell as soon as their hogs were sufficiently
mature, has reduced the number and sise
of those on hand.
Cattle It is evidently the prevailing
impression among the correspondents that
the number of beef cattle for feeding pur
poses is les than lastyear, but oaly a slight
falling off in young cattle is indicated.
The only apparent cause for tbe decrease
in the number of beef cattle is tbe very
low price thts class of stock has been
bringing for a number of years.
Animal Diseases Tbe State Veterinar
ian's circular respecting contagious ani
mal diseases, sent to correspondents with
the crop report circular, brought re
sponses from all but six counties in the
State. Cases of some one or more of the
diseases named in tbe circular glanders
or farcy. Texas fever, black leg big jaw,
swine plague and mad itch were reported
from all but eight of the counties heard
from. The eye disease in cattle, called by
many "pinkeye," is very widespread
throughout the State and numerous in
quiries in regard to it are be iag received
by Dr. Paquiu.

WIXDQU'l 8TATEMCST.
Kccwc. N. H., Sept 0 -Secretary TTin
dom, who has been in this city for several
days with his family, being seen in rela
tion to tbe reported retaliation on live
stock and meat products by the Mexican
Government on account of tbe rulings of
the Treasury Department on tbe imposi
tion of duties on Mexican vessels and lead
ore, said that in regard to lead ore this
Government had not recently entered
upon any policy shutting out tbe products
of Mexico. No 'ruling had been lately
made on the subject except certain In
structions to the collectors of customs on
the border to prevent tbe fraudulent im
portation of Mexicaa lead oras
A question as to the classification of
lead ores bad been for some time pending
in the department, but no decision ia re
gard to the matter had yet been reached,
Iu regard to imposing duties on Mexican
vessels the law imposed a discriminating
duty of 10 per cent on goods imported in
foreign vessels, except tbe vessels of na
tions with which the United States had
treaties on the subject Tbe President
was authorised to relieve the vessels of
other nations from that discriminating
duty upon satisfactory proof that such
countries did not levy such duties on
United States vesse's. As Mexico did
levy such a discriminating duty upon
goods imported in American sailing ves
sels, there was no power to relieve her
vessels from such duty.
KEYSTONE DEMOCRATS.
The Pennsylvania Democrats Xomiuate a
Ticket The Platform.
Harris bcro. Pa., Sept C Hon. Samue
W. Wherry, of Cumberland, was chosen
temporary chairman of the Democratic
8 rate convention. His speech was not
very long. He arraigned tbe Republican
party for its misdeeds and closed with a
eulogy of the Democratic party, mention
ing tho name of Cleveland, when the con
vention soon rbeered itself hoarse.
It was about one'o'clock when J. B. Wat
son, chairman of tho committee on perma
nent organisation, reported the name of
Congressman J. It Riley, of Schuylkill,
tor permanent chairman. Tbe selection
was indorsed by the convention and Mr.
Riley was conducted to the chair. In tak
ing tbe reins of the day be made a speech,
which was principally a eulogy of the
purpose for which the convention was as
sembled. M. H. Connelly, of Northampton, read
tbe platform, the different planks of which
were greeted with hearty cheers. It ap
plauded the words of President Cleveland
looking toward tariff reform; reaffirms the
declarations of principles made by tbe
Democracy at St Louis in lSSS. especially
that demanding a reform and reduction
of tariff taxes; favors tbe admission free
of duty of all raw material hen it will
enlarge American productions and in
crease the demand for labor; denounces
trnsts; accepts the decision of the people
of Pennsylvania on the prohibition amend
ment declaring in favor of reasonable,
just and effective regulation of the traffic
in ardent spirits; favors the Australian
ballot system; and advocates a liberal
pension law, in order to have justice done
honorably discharged soldiers who by
reason of their work and other infirmities
are prevented from performing manual
labor, but denounces tbe giving of pensions
to other people as an injustice to those en
titled to this recognition.
It was announced at this point that tbe
nomination of a candidate for State Treas
urer was in order and the following names
were presented in eulogistic speeches:
Edward Bigler and Homer J. Humes, of
Crawford; Captain A. A. Clay and Isaac
Wilde, of Philadelphia. Considerable
time was consumed in calling tbe roll.
Tbe first ballot resulted: Bigler, 207;
Humes. 77; Clay, 21; Wilde, 49. Mr. Big
ler's nomination was made unanimous on
motion of the friends of the other candi
dates. Tbe convention then adjourned.

and he says that not more than 50 per J

utilized for agriculture. Ho doos not
think, however, that these Indians can be
made self-supporting unless by tbe com
pulsory process and withholding their
rations unless each male ot twenty years
or over shall plant and cultivate ten acres
of corn, wheat or oats. The total number
of Indians is 4.0a The school interests
have been advanced, but much room ex
ists for improvement. There is a hopeful
field for missionary work, the Methodist
Church (South), the Informed and Old
School Presbyterians and the Baptist
Churches maintaining earnest mission
aries. Agent Myers farther states that these
Indians all oppose allotment of their land
in severalty, claiming that tbey are not
yet ready for the change. He therefore
believes that tbey should not now be
forced to accept the measure. They
realize, however, that it must come soon
and they are preparing for the new order.

SOCIAL GIFTS AND GRACES.
The Happiness aad Cosafort or Others De
pend oa Oar Good Coadaet.
It requires social gifts and graces,
natural and acquired, to be a pleasant
i traveling companion. It requires the
obliteration of personal dislikes, and
the acceptation o the inevitable with
out comment The moment that com-
; plaints about environment are heard.
or the absence of material comforts is
commented upon,, that moment the
subtle quality which we call.social at-
i mosphere is disturbed. There is sure
to be some sympathetic person who
will feel distressed because every one
is not comfortable; there will be the
weak one who would never have com
plained without a leader, or the ag
gressive one who will feel called upon
to attempt to improve matters, but
who will instead cause disturbance.
When people are joined together for
the purpose of adding to each other's
pleasure, it is net wise to begin sub
tracting; the only way to maintain the
right atmosphere is for each to main
tain silence as to the disagreeable that
must be endured, and unite in find
ing sources for congratulation. Find
pleasure, interest at least, in that
which interests the others; treat
the pleasure of the party as a
bank to which all must contrib
ute funds. Those possessed of special
gifts 6hould give freely of them to the
others. Personal weaknesses, preju
dices, whims, should be carefully hid
den. For this reason persons of weak
will or uncontrollable feelings should
never form members, of a traveling
party; it is the one condition that
calls for constant watchfulness over
self, constant 6pur to keep one at one's
highest leveL Moods are the bane of
social atmosphere, and never more
baneful than when a small number of
persons are thrown together depend
ent on each other -for social life. How
often you hear it said, "he" or "she"
was the life of the party! No one
knows how often this motive force
was maintained at the expenditure of
nervous strength, and by complete
self-sacrifice to prevent dullness or
antagonism.
It is said that it is a rare thing for
a party to return home with the same
regard and respect for each other with
which they left home. This is admit
ting that one or more members of the
party were natural, and, because nat
ural, ill-mannered and selfish. The
one place where so-called company
manners need constant airing is when
I traveling in a party. Nervousness
is entirely out of place, and
destroys comfort The best traveling
companion is the one who possesses
the greatest powers of adaptability;
the one who can eat bread and butter
if personal dislike makes the other
food unattractive; the one who can
find pleasure in that which' gives
pleasure to the rest; the one who has
no personal prejudices that can not be
forgotten when the occasion arises.
Each member of a party traveling
together is bound to find a balance in
favor of the advantages offered by the
route, the hotel chosen, the people
met The easiest thing in the world
is to find fault: and it is like the spread
of an epidemic having gained a slight
foothold, no one can prophesy where
it will end.
See only that which is best in each;
give only that which is best in your
self; and rememberthat in a traveling
party each individual is but a part of
a whole, whose happiness and comfort
as well as development, depend on
how faithfully each has contributed
his share toward accomplishing the
ends for which the whole was formed.
Christion Union.
A pair of knitted socks at least
3.000 years old have been found in an
Egyptian tomb. They are loosely knit
of fine sheep's wool, the foot being'
finished in two parte, so aa to admit
of a sandal strap passing1 between. A
pair of knitted socks on a modern
Egyptian would be as much of a curi
osity as an Iceberg1 in India. Who
knows but that the climate was differ
ent in those days?
