A Possible Prlitrlpial,
Yeiterday there came to this ofBce the
Public School Journal, published at Cin
cinnati, Ohio. On the first page is a
woodcut of L. D. Brown, the present
Democratic nominee for State School Com
missioeer of Ohio, aud also a brief sketch
of his life. Some mouths ago his name
was prominently mentioned before the
Board for the position of Principal of our
public school. From a letter received
from him yesterday by a friend in this city
it is not improbable that his name will
again come before the Board of School
Trustees as a candidate for the principal
ihip. In speaking of the vacancy here he
•aye: “if I wore foot-loose you would sue
me alter that *1.800 position. My party
ta id the minority in Ohio, hot even if
defeated, my lag will not go down in dis
honor. And, besides, I am like Antonio in
the Merchant of Venice,’ My ventures are
not in one bottom trusted; nor to one
place; nor it my whole estate upon the
fortunes of the present year.' " As a boy,
Mr. Brown left school to eutcr the Union
army, in which be served till the close of
the war. to many battles he proved him
self an intrepid aoldier. As an educator
he has occupied some of the most prom
inent school positions in Ohio, aud at
present is the Ohio editor of the Now
England Journal of Education and Super
intendent of the city public schools of
Hamilton.

This failing results in many of them be

small sum—say $3 or $4—with which to
try his luck at the gaming table. He loses
and is uuable to repay the money. He is
arraigned, the debt is proved, and he is
acuteuced to work for the lender till the
amount of his obligation is paid. By the
time be has liquidated the original debt
he has contracted three or four others, and
be belongs to his oreditor almost as much
as the creditor’s horse or oow. His death
does not oanoel his debts; his wife or his
children must labor until the money is
returned. This is said to be the reason
why peons do not run away after contract
ing debts.

NEVADA FfdT.

tloua from fiuekwuier.
I We do not believe that the capabilities
of Nevada for agriculture are half appre
ciated. Had what it now accomplished in
this State in farming been talked of as pos
sible only a few years ago the proposition
would have been considered nearly-absurd.
Notwithstanding all the disadvantages
with which our farming people have to
contend, we are satisfied that in the lapse
of time this sagebrush country will be
made to blossom as the rose. From sev
eral parts of the State, notably along the
Humboldt, Truckee and Carson Rivers,
where the soil is alluvial and the tempera
ture less rigorous, the fruit products, to
say nothing of the cereals, are remarkable
for their kind and variety. But the most
satisfactory evidence of what can be done
iu Nevada in the cultivation of fruit is
some samples of apples, grapes, plums and
peaches that we have before us on the ed
itorial table, brought to Eureka by ’Squire
Irwin from bis ranch in Nye County. The
plums, yellow and purple, are large, firm,
sweet, and very juicy. The grapes are of
three sorts, the Muscat, Black Hamburg
and Mission. They grow in large bunches,
close together. They are firm, juicy and
sweet, and we do not hesitate to sav that
they are superior to similar grapes raised
in California. Mr. Irwin raised three
tons of grapes this season. He says they
can be raised anywhere else in Nevada as
well as in Duckwater. The peaches are fine
and superior to those of California. As a
rule larger and finer looking fruit is grown
in California than in Nevada, but it is the
rule, also, that fruit matured in Nevada is
more substantial and juicy, and of better
flavor than that produced in California.
’Squire Irwin has been experimenting in
fruit raising on his ranch for the last seven
or eight years. At first he was not success
ful—he allowed his trees to attain their
normal growth. The wind, which is vio
lent in his vicinity, as generally, at times,
throughout Nevada, blow the blossoms off,
or if the blossoms escaped the ravages of
the wind, the young fruit would fall a vic
tim to it and be blown from the stems to
the ground. He looked about him and
took a lesson from nature. He saw the
runty cedars how they grew on the hills,
close to the ground, with low trunks and
the limbs spread out nearly on a line with
the ground. He went to work and pre
pared his fruit trees to make them grow
in the same way. He planted young trees
and cut them off just above the first limb,
and never allowed any tree to grow higher
than his head. He thus saved them from
the violence of the wind. The branches
spread out, and as the fruit grew and
matured it rested on the /round. His beat
fruit, he says, is that which rests on the
ground,covered over with straw. He makes
a great abundance of gooseberries, cur
rants and other berries every year. Nor
do the frosts ever kill the more tender
fruits ou his place, except the grape vines,
of which nearly one-half are Winter-killed
every year. Hereafter bo will save all
these vines by bending them down and
covering them over with straw and earth,
after harvest, until Spring. This year Mr.
Irwin will sell to his neighbors iu Dnck
Valley between four and five tons of fruit.
From his remarkable success, attained by
industry and thoughtful labor, it is plain
that others may go and do likewise any
where else almost on the slope. He says
he feels as though ho had just started iu to
find out a few of the many things about
fruit raising that be knows he will come
upon by experience. From year to year he
will improve his fruit by purchase and
selection of the best stock, and we feel
sure that within the next five or six years
his 4;»-acre orchard will be one which not
only Nevada, but almost any State might
be proud of.
THE AMERICAN CULLKUE.
CrlilrUm of Cliai. Francis Adams
Jr. Answcml by Nlallatles.
We give place with pleasure to the fol
lowing communication, which is an inter
esting collection of statistical facts with
regard to the effects and value of collegiate
edacation:
Eubeka, Sept. 8, 1883.
En. Sentikel: The unfavorable criti
cism on the American College as expressed
by Charles Francis Adams Jr. at the last
Harvard College commencement have
awakened pretty general discussion of the
subject among educators throughout the
United States. In connection with the
apparent advantages of a college education
some interesting facts have in consequence
come to light. From Harvard College his
great grand father, John Adams, gradu
ated in 1755; his grand father, John Q.
Adams, in 1788; his father, Charles Francis
Adams, in 1825; and he graduated from
the same “poor old college" in 1856. In
speaking of Harvard and of his meager
school opportunities, he says: “The poor
old college prepared us to play our parts
in the world by compelling us, diroctly or
indirectly, to devote the best part of our
school lives to acquiring a confessedly
superficial knowledge of two dead lan
guages."
Of the 17 different men elected Presi
dent of the United States, 15 have been
college men and two aelf educated. Of
the 21 Vice Prosidenta, 14 have been col
lege men and seven self-educated. Of all
the officers in the United States, that of
Secretary of the Treasury would seem to
require the most comprehensive knowledge
of business. If a oollege education unfit
one for business, as is claimed, it is a pe
culiar faot that of the 35 men who have
filled this position 31 of them were
college educated and but four self
educated. About 70 per cent of all the
men in this country who have held Cabinet
offices have reoeived a thorough college
education. Of the 86 signers of the
Declaration of Independence, 41 were edu
oated, au or mem regular college grsuuavss,
and but 15 self-educated. Seven of the
eight Chief Justices of the United States,
and 70 pir ceut of the Associate Justices,
have been college graduates. In the late
civil war the self-educated soldh r fared
slini iu the strife for prominenoe compared
with those who received a special education
in the tactics of scientific warfare. Of the
latter who were educated at our West
Point Military Academy may be meutioned
Grant, Sherman, McClellan, Sheridan,
Meade, Ilaucock, Thomas, Hooker. Joseph
E. Johnston, A. S. Johnston, Robert E.
Lee. Longstreet, Beauregard and Stonewall
Jackson.
In 1870 investigations made by the
Bureau of Education at Washington de
veloped the fact that not ouly GG'a per cent
of the nation's law-makers, but the same
per cent of all the prominent office-holders
of the United States received the advan
tages of a college education. From the
same authentic source conics the statement
that, iu the accumulation of wealth, an
education strengthens a hoy's ability from
25 to 50 per cent. This conclusion was
reached through statistics taken from the
history of the leading business firms of the
United States.
The time that a boy spends .either in
gaining information or in disciplining the
mind is never wasted. The great trouble
is that our 11 Young America,” at the age
of 15, with a cane in his hand and a cigar
In one corner of his mouth, thinks him
self bigger than bis daddy, and doesn't
caro whether school keeps or not.
This bull against the higher education
comes with ill grace from the leading rep
resentative of the Adams family. In the
light of the facts showing the real worth
of the American college, the only plausi
ble explanation of the course taken by
Charles Franois Adams Jr. during the
past five years, in reference to our public
schools and colleges, is his inordinate de
sire to keep his name before the people.
His attitude towards colleges, too, Is iu
striking contrast with that of bis illus
trious sneestry, whoso names are recorded
in history as champions of the higher ed
ucation. _

A NEW SCHEME.
Somethin* to Hwk« the •• Nice Old
Mon” Heatllse Ills Yonth A*ntn.
The old man ia full of memories of the
distant past. What happens to him to-day
be forgets to-morrow. The present does
nfit interest him, and its affairs impress
him only for a moment. His mind is ever
running back to the days when he was
young. He dwells npon the pleasures of
his youth and of his vigorous manhood.
Borne of his memories are pleasant. Ashe
sits and ponders, the panorama of years
passes by and he smiles; or, perhaps, a
shadow falls npon bis brow. The inevita
bly dead past be may shed a tear upon or
chuckle over. Bat in the old man’s
memory lies his chief disturber. Reason
and the testimony of his wornont
frame tell him that his day is
over—his race is run. Recollection
disquiets him. In his mind he is himself
again. Bweet, delusive fancy. Propelled
by bis imagination be seeks the fruition of
his vigorous days, but wbtn in contact
with the reality fruition is as far from
him as before he first became conaoious of
bis manly powers. He is wrecked upon
the quicksands of his own memory. 01
for the bright elixir of yonth; for just one
moment to enjoy the ecstacy the recollec
tion so sweetly paints, bnt which cold rea
son tells me shall never be mine again.
Is there nothing to restore worn out na
ture? This is a marvelous age. The in
genuity of man puts a temporary check at
least upon the ordinations of Providence.
Perpetual motion is not yet discovered;
the “fountain of youth” is no more bunt
ed for; the “elixir of life” enters
now into the thoughts of the de
mented only. But this Yankee nation
which solves any problem possible of solu
tion has found a means of holding the
vital spark to the last—a means of
concentrating the scattered forces of the
old man a few more times before his
memory quits taunting him with the dis
tractions of bis prime. The books of tbe
medicos are filled with expedients common
and rare. The most recent and perfect
scheme, however, for giving a fresh glow to
old blood has been reserved for invention by
the present rash and headlong generation.
Wo take pleasure in advising our ancient
friends, that little army of “nice old
men,” to visit W. H. Btoweil and inspect
the darling remedy for their especial
rejuvenation. The telephone, the ande
pbone, the Keeley motor are nothing in
comparison with it. Go and see it and be
convinced that you may yet fill your cup
of joy to the brim once more.

Monte Remarkable Bolngs or Tbla
Notorious I’erson.
Bennett is now abroad in his steam
yacht Namonau. His extraordinary per
formances of late have prodnced a sensa
tion, and have been facetiously ascribed to
the exhilarating qualities of French air.
He has recently been trying to entertain
his friends by playing on them with a fire
hose. On more than one occasion he has
insisted on the whole crew getting roaring
drunk or else suffer instant dismissal. On
a certain New Year’s night in New York
City, Bennett arrived at the Union Club,
after having made many calls. As he
threw himself into a chair he observed
that the members were presenting Peter,
the venerable porter of the club, with $5
bills as New Year’s presents. He called
Peter over to him, then fishing out a bill
and without looking at it said: “Peter,
my friend, take that.” “Thank yon,” said
Peter as he saw it was a $20 bill. After
gazing dreamily at the porter a minute he
brought forth another bill, saving "Take
that, Peter.” This went on for about ten
minutes, when the astonished Peter at
tempted to retire. Bennett called him
back. He was presented with every kind
of a bill from $1 to $50. Finally Bennett
stopped, and Peter, with his hat full of
money, retired. He was advised to ask
Bennett the next time he came to the club
if he hadn't given him by mistake more
than he had intended. 8o next day Peter
said to him, “Mr. Bennett, I think you
gave me more of a New Year's present than
you intended last night.” Bennett looked
at him for a few seoonds. He had no
recolleotion of having given him anything.
“How much did I give you, Peter?”
“About $1,800.” The position, though a
delicate one, was not serious to a man
with an income of a million a year. “That
was theamount X intended for you. Peter,”
replied Bennett, without a sign of annoy
ance.
Hard Linn,
Tbe prisoners in tbe Hungarian murder
trial were defended by five lawyers, three
of whom were, like the prisoners, Jews.
But the leading counsel for tbe defence
was Baron Eotvos, a Christian nobleman
of an old Magyar family, who is distin
guished in his country not only as an ad
vocate and orator, but also as a journalist,
publicist and poet. He is between 1U and
45 years of age, and a speaker ol much
power. Iu undertaking tbe defence of the
aocused Jews, he exposed himself to as
much opprobrium and danger of violence
at the hands of the populace as an aboli
tionist would have incurred in undertak
ing the cause of the slave before the war in
a Southern State. The rage of the mob
was directed particularly against him of
all tbe oounsel for the defense, and on one
occasion he was attacked in the street after
leaving the Courthouse, and bsrely escaped
with his life. He sought refuge with his
friends in a house that was stoned by tbe
mob and had every window facing tbe
street demolished. Kossuth's letter con
gratulating him upon his conduot of the
defense made an impression that was all
tbe deeper for these circumstances.

They played euchre, five points, f-*r clg >ra.
The carda ran along pretty evenly, too,
Till the Judge turned a moment his head.
When the Colonel, in shuffling, slipped the
d- ck through.
And the Judge cut a cold one instead.
’Twas euchre, of course; but the Judge waa
amazed
When he lifted four king* in a lump;
Bi t the Colonel, not seemiug a panicle dazed,
Turned up a red queen for a trump.
• You aay, do you pass, Judge?" the Colonel
called out;
••Look here," said the limb of the law,
••I’ve mighty queer c rds; if you’re in for a
bout.
We'll play this one hand out at draw."
The Colonel considered, and wriggled his
neck—
“I, too, have a very odd hand;
If you’ll give me that queen from the top of
the deck.
We’ll play out the cards aa they stand."
••Agreed," said the Judge, for hesaw at a glance
The Colonel had one of two things—
A full, or four quoens. and he hadn’t a chance
To rake down the pot from four kings.
The Judge cLlpped with ilfiy; the Colonel
came back;
The Judge answered him with a raise;
Of the beta the two made I could never get
track,
But tLey piled up like gala in a chalae.
At last saya the Judge, "Here, I’m hunting no
more—
Four kings; reach ua over that pot"—
"Hold on," saya the Colonel, "I, too, have
found four,
And they’re four little sees I’ve got.”
The Judge took the carda and looked over them
well.
Fetched a breath from his trouser’s waist
band—
••Well, what I’d like to know is, what in h- l
The queen had to do with that band." •
