Gkasd Junction. Colo.. March 10. 1830.
Editor Orange Jndd Former :
Sinco writing my letter of Jan 31. from
Grand Valley, many letters of inquiry have
been sent by your readors to the Grand
Junction Board of Trade, asking whether
the statements therein set forth were reli
able. I now wish to reiterate every statement
made in my former letter, the main points
being that Grand Junction Valley. Colo.,
has an all-year-round climate unsurpassed
in the world; that it ha no extremes of
heat or cold, no cyclones or blizzards, very
few cloudy days, nearly perpetual sunshine:
is especially adaptou for thoso suffering
from pulmonary tiouble. and for invalid!
o! all classes; is ono of the 11 nest fruit pro
ducing valleys of the world, and offers
grand opportunities for invalids with a
biiiall capital to make an easy and safe
competence in raising fruit; that ten acres
of laud set out in fruit will yield more net
cah per year than the average 300-acre
iarin of tho Western States, and that, too,
with less than one-tenth of the capital or
labor.
In my last I spoke principally of fruit
raising. Now I wish to call attention to the
fact that vegetables of all kind3 yield
abundantly, and that vkli3 tho (ruit trees
are growing sufficient vegetables and small
fruits can oo Tailed between the fruit trees
to more- than pay all expenses of taking
euro of an orchard. A large cannery will
IjO built in Grand Junction, ready for next
summer's crop of vegetables, and tho
mountain towns of adjacent minim; sec
tions furnish ample markets at good profits.
Sweet potatoes of a fine quality grow
abundantly in the sandy land, and sell
readily in tho adjoining towns at from one
dollar and fifty conts to two dollars pa
bushel. I think that if tho people who con
template a ehungo would pool together and
send out small committees from among
ti:oir number to. look ovor the advantages
offered by this favored locality. It would
bpeed'ly result in turning what i now prac
tically a dosert Into ono of the most famous
fmit valleys of the world. The Grand
Junction Iloaru of Trade havo recently
issued a circular that covers nearly all tho
points of interest here, and their Secretary
will gladlv send a freo copy to any ons
feeling sufficient interest to write for it.

As old Jack surrendered the star he
remarked that "he-was done with it."

somebody would have died."
"Well, I guess you know who would

Big Sam was taken to the scene of

arguments or shooting scrapes. Toter
lorie a town or a neighborhood was
their delight. These were the "bullies,"
the "desperadoes," tho "terrors," as
they wore variously characterized. It
was one of these pests of good society
that has prompted the penning of this
little sketch.
Shortly after the admission of the

TIE INTELLIGENT COMPOSITOR.
The Mach Blamed Individual Find a De-
reader at Lant.
The "intelligent compositor" is the
man who is supposed to make all the
mistakes which occur in the printing of
a newspaper. Everv newspaper has
one. He i3 the scapegoat of the estab- i
Jisiiment. He is cursed alike by the
publisher, editor, contributor and
reader. He does not appear to have
any friends; therefore it is safo to blame
him for auy blunder that may be made,
ana tney alt do it with wonderful una
nimity. With all of these gentlemen, save one,
the compositor has no relations. Thev
are at liberty to abuse him all they like, j
tie uoe3 not care; lie knows them not.
The one exception is the proof-reader.
With him the compositor is at war a
never-ending, irrepressible conllict,
which began with the first proof leader
and will continue until the la?t news
paper has gone to press.
Bat the conflict; is one sidedx The
proof reader has it all his own way. He

public, and be abuses the compositor to

seems to believe linn. There are two
sides to every question, however, and
because the compositor meekly accepts
all the blame it does not follow that it
is always bis due.
1 well remember the night I set up a
review in which occmred the quotation
from Gray'n Elegy: "Far from the
madding crowd.""' The proof-reader
marked it "maddening." I went to see
himabontit. He laughed at me in a
superior sort of way and said their was

me li j. wanted ins situation. 1 beat an
ignominious retreat and went out and
btiuyed my head against the wall sev
eral times to cool off, one of my fellow
compositors remarking with hypocrit
ical sympathy: "You ought to know
better than to talk Choctaw to a Chiua
inau." An amusing blunder, for which the
compositor received the entire blame
happened on The Philadelphia Press
several pears ago, in an editorial by Col.
Forney. "Like shaking a red rag

were honest plainsmen, liig Sam was
a ruflian of the most pronounced type,
and was never so well satisfied as when
bullying some inoffensive stranger.
His latest victim had been a young
man from Oliio but lately arrived in
the country. Refusing to dance in a
saloon for Big Sam's amusement, and
calling him a cowardly ruffian when
the bully threatened him, was sufli
cicnt to raise Big Sam's anger to the
killing point, and he shot the young
man dead on the spot.
Realizing that for once ho had car
ried things too far, and that vengeance
was about to be visited on him by
a neighboring vigilance committee,
Big Sam fled to the then strag
gling village of Council Bluffs.
The news of his crime soon followed
him, and also the announcement that
the Governor had offered a reward of
$300 for his arrest.
Several local officers attempted his
arrest without success, for he was very
watchful and suspicious of all who ap
proached him. Besides, he had badly
wounded ono officer who bad attempted
his arrest. The desperado was dis
turbed no more after this third attempt,
and he became quite bold and full of
swagger.
Stopping at the De Kovon House in
Council Bluffs at the time was a man
who, like Big Sam, wintered in the
settlements and summered in the
mountains.
Unlike Big Sam, Old Jack was no
desperado. He was nervy and giit
clear through, and he would go two or
three miles any night to spin a mar
velous yarn of border adventure, to
some company of westward-bound emi
grants, or do them a kindness.
Old Jack was seated in the bar-room
of the hotel one morning when a couple
of oflicers came in. As they stepped
up to the bar one of them remarked:
"I wish we could take that fellow.
It would be a pile in our pockets if wo
did, but it's most too iiky a job for
me.
"Yes," remarked his companion, "a
fellow might get him, and again ho
might not; but I would like to see him
punished for so cowardly and unpro-
Ufc.fU u U11UUCI o lll 3.
"Who is it you are talking about?"
asked Old .Jack, rising and walking
toward a window looking out on the
street.
-Why, Big Sam, of conrae," was tha
reply. "There he goes, now, into that
mloou over across the street."
Old Jack glanced across the street
and s"aw the burly figure of Big Sam
enter the saloon and pass toward the
bar.
"Well, he don't look like such an cw--f
til bad man; what has he done?" asked
Jack.
Thereupon one of the oflicers briefly
outlined the crime for which Big Sam
was wanted.
"Well, a fellow that would kill an
other that way ain't fit to run loose.
Just yon deputize me, and if I don't
get him for you just see that I get a
decent plantin'; that's all I ask," said
Jack.
"Agreed," said one of the men, "but
just remember the risk yon run, and
yon are under no obligations to do it."
"Never mind that, only give me the
papers," replied old Jack.
He was forthwith deputized, and pin
ning a star on his vest underneath his
coat, he crossed the street and walked
into the saloon which Big Sam had
entered a while before. Stepping to
the bar, he called for the drinks, then
remarking in casual way that he did
not like to drink alone, he turned
toward the man seated at the stove
and said: "Come up, stranger, and
drink with me."
"I don't care if I do," responded Big
Sam, as he arose and swaggered np to
the bar.
They both drained their glasses. As
old Jack put his hand down to return
to Ids pocket the change he had re
ceived from the bartender, he let the
money fall to the floor, and, dexterous
ly whipping out his pistol, he had Big
Sam, who was leaning back against
the bar watching him closely, covered
before he realized what was'coming.
"Throw up your hands, and be quick
about it," commanded Jack; "you're
my man now," and he pushed aside the
lapel of his coat and showed his star.
"Don't!" he exclaimed, as Sam's
hand started to drop, "don't, or 111
kill you."
Up went the hands, for big Sam saw
he had met more than his match.
"Here, barkeeper, just step around
here and pnt these bracelets I have in
.my pocket on the gentleman's wrists,

presence on these occasions appears lim
ited, for it seems he does nothing but
balance himself on the edgo of chairs,
adjust his tie in every availiblo mirror,
and occasionally make mildly facetious
and more frequently impoitinent com
ments on tho goods. At the restaurants
ho secures luncheon, and being well-drilled
in Madam's likes aud dislikes, he thus
saves her the trouble of choosing her own
fare, and the infliction of getting what
sho detests. He is nseful, too. in find
ing tho carriage after the theater .or after

viceable, if not exactly intellectual quali
ties, are the advantages that he can bo
snubbed at will, that he never dare grum
ble like husbands, and that he never
bores with the wearisome attentions of
older men. To what end do these per
fumed dandyettes run errands and act ai
footmen lo other men's wives if not to
play at being gaylotharios? Their reward
is thnt they get taken everywhere, and
everybody has to treat them with somo
degree of civility. Then they aro in the
train of a pretty, or, at least, a popular
woman, a distinction which all youths
envy. They live on tho metaphorical
milk and honoy of tho lnnd; they basic
in luxnry aud revel in all the best enter
tainments, pick up "good tips," and event
ually, if they are smart, secure a rich

The Astors and the Yanderbilts, or at
least the more socially consequential ones
among them, will sail away for Europe
next week; but in the meantime I hey aro
giving dinners, receptions, and balls at a
furious rate. Chauncey M. Dcpew, you
know, is not only a business associate of
the Yanderbilts in railroading, but ho
mixes familiarly with them in society.
At the opera, the other night, I heard ,
Mrs. William Astor remark: "I do bo- ;
lieve, Mr. Depow, that you have boon
helping Mrs. Cornelius Yanderbilt to
make out a time-table. Surelv, sho
crowds in more entertainments without
collision than I can succeed in doing."
"Did you ever see a man making a
railway time-table?" Mr. llepow jocosely
responded. "Well, this is tho way he
does it: A throad of a certain color rep.
resents every train that is run over the
line close to others. With two or throe
of these different colored threads
stretched along the ronte, and by means
of markings of their running time, he
lays out the new schednle. Wherever the
threads have to cross, owing to the com
parative slowness or swiftness of the
traius and their relative times of inter
fering with each other, tho layout of
threads enables him to fix the figures ex
actly and successfully. Now. this is a
secret," and he glanced with twinkling
eyes at the group of a dozen hearers. "I
spent two days laying out a time-table in
that manner for Mrs. Yanderbilt, and if
any of her entertainmonts should come
into collision sua would hold me response
ble." A"ew York letter to Chicayo Led

Many anecdotes are related about
the droll sayjngs of the late Jonas Hill
of Fayette. He had a peculiar way of
speaking, which those who heard him
will never forget, but bis pronunciation
can hardly be represented in print.
He was at one time a suitor for the
hand of a young lady whose parents
did not favor him. Her father did not
think that the social standing of Jonas
was such as to render him a fit match
for his daughter, but he told the young
man that if ho would bring him 'high
toned references he wonld consider his
claim. Jones said nothing, but felt in
dignant, and resolved to have his re
venge. So he procured the best of
recommendations as to his character
and standing in society. The old man
examined the credentials and was sat
isfied. "All right," said he, "you are
welcome; walk into my parlor, and
yonr horse shall be stabled and fed.r
"Not bv anv means," replied Jones,
-my (th) horse is neither hungry nor
(th) dry, and I shall never (th) darken
your (th) doors any more. Good-day,
sir." And putting the whip to his

Smitn and damn the conmositor. Or
yon chronicle the death of a Bucks
County statesman, aud wake up in the
morning to find that he was from Berks.
Whose fault was that? The composi
tor's? By no means.
These are just a few instances which re
enr to memory at the moment. In each
of them the compositor, while not
blameless, was much less at fault than
tho proof-reader. This is very often the
case.
The proof-readingis rarely revised. In
the hurry of preparing for the press
tims is everything. Consequently,
while the writer of an article gets a
"first proof," he seldom gets-a "revise."
And right here is where the proof
reader gets iu ins most deadly work.
To err is human. Compositors are
very human and err nioro or less. But
proof-readers ate not divine by a long
ways. If they were, the casus belli
would, to a great extent, be removed;
but a "machine" proof-readsr angels
and ministers of grace, dofond xrn I is
auswerauie lor many an ungracious
blunder for which the compositor is
blamed.
There are a great many machine coni-
I positors, of course; but the machine
, proof-reader is the dandy. I have run
across him so often that I have come to
1 the conclusion that his species will never
J become extinct, and, realizing this, I
now act on the "similia similibus cu
rantnr" principle. In other words, I
meet machino proof reading with ma
chine composition, and, while the rosult
in the next daj-'s paper may not always
be gratifying to the editor and pub
lisher, it causes mo less trouble.
In writing this my object is not to nt
tack the proof-reader, bnt to defend tho
compositor, who has never yet, at least
to my knowledge, had an open defender;
and also to remove the prevalent im
pression that ho is an unmitigated
scoundrel, who will do nothing right
that he can possibly do wrong, Domi

Turkish Slaves.
There aro actually at Stamboul about
ninety regular slave dealers who buy
and sell slaves, or who are tho medium
of buying or selling. The slaves are
lodged in house3 known by the public,
just as they know the dealers in any
sort of merchandise. The principal
slave houses are about thirty.
An Abyssinian maiden from 14 to 17
is worth from (10 to 120 liras (a lira is
worth about $4.50, but a handsome
one is sure to bring 300 liras (about
$1,350.) Whiteslaves (Toherke3) are
more abundant. Maidens from 12 to
15 aro quoted from 00 to 300 liras, and
those from 1C to 20 from GO to 1,000
liras. The price ,varies according to
beauty, size, complexion, and accom
plishments. Singers and musicians
generally bring a good price. In the
days of Ismail Pasha the price of slaves
was double what it is to-day. It should
be noted here that the slaves exported
to Egypt greatly improved the breed of
the Egyptians," One can immediately
distinguish an Egyptian who has hud
for a mother and father a Circassian
slave from the Egyptian pur sang.
Many people here buy slaves for legal
marriages, preferring them to Turks.
The reason is that a slave has no re
lations (mother-in-law especially), and
therefore no visitors or callers. She
endeavors to please her husband. She
is obedient and economieal.and very af
fectionate even, if well treated. Lon

asking, who can tell what a right angle

Grass and Wheat at RothamstedV
At the famous experimental farm at
Bothamsted, one field of sevon acres
now divided into twenty plots is sup
posed to have been in grass for some
centuries, and it is certain that no fre3h
seed has been artificially sown for fifty
years. Since 185G, when the herbage
was uniform, each plot has received
different treatment, one remaining un
mannred and the other receiving vari
ous fertilizers. Among results reported
by Sir Johu Lawes is that on one plot
the fertilizers have fed only one kind of
grass, which has killed off all the rest;
on another, the grass is so hard and
wirvastobe hardly fit for food; and
on a third, the land has become littlp
better than a bog. It thus appears that
the food received by plants determines
their nature as much as in the care of
animals. In one of the wheat fields,
in which the grain has been grown con
tinuously for forty-five years, a section
which has received no manure yielded
last vear a crop equal to the average in
the earlv vears of the experiments Hi
bushels'per acre. One end of this field
was left uncropped five years ago, the
ripened wheat being allowed to fall. In
three vears there was scarcely an ear
left, anil now there is not one a dem
onstration of the artificial character of
our food producers, which, when ua-
ah I beg pardou."

How Lee Was Caught.
A story interesting to students of
American history is preserved in some
old private memoirs of the circum
stances attending the capture of Gen.
Charles Lee by the British in 1770.
Lee, as those who are familiar with
the events of the American Revolu
tionary struggle will remember, had
been summoned by Washington to join
him with his troops; but as he was jeal
ous oi me supremacy ot the commander-in-chief,
he disregarded tho
order and left his forces, while he rode
up to n place called Basking Ridge, in
New Jersey, with his staff.
He put up at a little tavern kept by
a Mrs. Wright, and spent the day in
writing letters to Gen. Gates denounc
ing Washington. The next morning
Major James Wilkinson, then aged ID,
arrived at 4 o'clock with a warning from
Washington that tho British wero in
New Jersey. Lee sent down word to
the impatient young ollicer that he
"was in bed, but would attend to the
matter after breakfast."
After 10 o'clock tiie General appeared
m a gorgeous red dressing gown and
slippers, and, while the messenger
angrily tramped to and fro outside, re
fusing to enter the honse, sat down
leisurely to finish his letter to Gates.
"I must return with your reply to
Gou. AYashington," said Wilkinson".
"You will wait until vou receive it."
calmly answered Lee, nibbling at his
pen.
At noon the situation was still un
changed. Lee wrote and smoked
within, and Wilkinson waited, fuming
without.
As the clock struck one the clatter
of approaching cavalry was heard, and
the British were uion them. A brief
defence was made by the stall", bnt Lee
soon 'appeared on tho balcony, shouting
out, "Here is Gen. Lee! lie surren
ders!" He was forced to ride bareheaded, in
his dressing gown and slippers, to
New Brunswick. Wilkinson sprang
upon his fcorse. escaped, and returned
to Washington. Youth's Companion.
A Press Reformed Female.
Do you want to know how to sot to
work to make a dress-reformed or Del
sartean female of yourself ? asks Clara
Belle. Well, then, listen. First you
must begin at yonr skin. Take" off
your dainty silken undershirt, your
pins satin corsots, your saucy short
underskirt with some appropriate
motto embroidered on its back
breadths, your lace-frilled bifurcated
garments all these fripperies and
flummeries must go. In their places
pnt on a high-necked and long-sleeved
garment which doesn't stop at your
hips, but continues to your heels. Then
don an affair called a chemilelto a
combined low-necked and short-sleeve
garment reaching from cho5t to knee.
Look at yourself at this stage of the
game, rind if you havp the courago to
go on, you are indeed a brave woman.
Now comes the hideous divided skirt.
Mind yon, the divided skirt of the opera
girls are one thing and the divided
skirts of the aesthetic woman are
another. No billows of lace to wave
and glance as you pick yonr way across
a street, bnt two plain silk "leglets."
Was there ever so horrible a word ?
Y'ou are ready now for your gown. What!
no corsets nor whaleboned waists
even? No, no; if there is one. tiring
that all these new-fangled dress re
formers insist on it is the banishment of
your stays. Now, then, your froek. Get
the limpsiest-looking material possible.
Twist and swathe it around yourself.
The best way is to pin it on for then
you can get a more artistic effect. Cut
a towsledBurne-Jones bang from your
ears straight around. Pnt on a crushed
strawberry straw bonnet, without any
trimming, and a cloak with angel
sleeves and bagged in at the waist
and there ydu are! No matter if 3011
do look like a rag doll or the "Witch of
Endor," you are artistic, aesthetic, Dol
sartean. Now if yon can "decompose"
yourself properly, and lop and sprawl
and attitudinize "your success is assured.
