The PlfllcaltleN Encountered by A Mlrbl
igander in Search of a Wife.
The other morning a man with gray
linirH and many wrinkles stood around
one of the stands in the Central Market
for ii time and finally offered the
keeper a cigar and made some observa
tions about the weather. This broke
the ibe, and by and by tlie stranger
said;
"I want to ask your advice. I lire
in orje of the northern counties. Have
been a widower six years. I want to
gel married again. I came down here
to buy some machinery and I've con
cluded to kill two birds witli one stone
and take a wife back witli the ma

find one to-day?"
"It's pretty short notice," replied
the stand-keeper.
"I know, but I can't waste much
timej I'm worth seven thousand dol
lars, have a mild disposition, and will
give some woman a good home."
"Are you very particular as to

"Not very."
"It you could get a woman with a

"I think I would. Mv last wife wa*

The stand-keeper looked around for
a miiiute and then snapped his fingers
at a girl twenty-three years of age, who
came from a fish-stand.
"Katie, come here> This man wants
a wife."
"Yes, sir."
"Worth seven thousand dollars, good

"ilsee, sir."
"Will you have him!"
"I can't, sir. I just engaged myself

"Can't you find him some one?"
"Yes, sir. If he will kindly wait

Ft»« Exlent io Which It Has Grown hi This
Country.
Since the formation of oar Govern
ment the impression lias been given at
home and abroad that the farmers in
this country owned the lands they
tilled. We have taken pride in point
ing to our vast National domain, and
have shown our unselfish spirit in in
viting poor people in every part of the
world to come aud settle on it. During
many years the price of public land
was $1.25. Some twenty-five years ago
Congress offered a homestead of 160
acres to any citizen or to any alien
who had declared his intention to be
come naturalized on the payment of a
sum about equal to the cost of making
the survey. Duriug the last few years
any person has had tho privilege of ob
taining 160 acres of land by agreeing
to plant forest trees on one-fourth part
of it. By virtue of the Homestead,
Pre emption and Timber-culture acts
one person has been able to obtain title
to three-quarter sections of land aggre
gating 480 acres for a trifle over $200.
The land thus open to settlement was
generally within easy reach of rail
roads, and the fare from the more
densely settled portions of the country
was low. The railroads, desiring to
have the country improved so as to pro
duce crops for transportation, offered
favorable terms to settlers. Under
these circumstances it was generally
presumed that persons who wanted
farms would go and take them. Rail
roads having land grants offered to
dispose of land for farms on very long
time and at low rates of interest.
As it was thought that nearly every
farmer owned the land he occupied we
have expressed a great deal of sympa
thy for the poor farmers of Ireland,
England, Scotland and Germany, who
were obliged to pay an annual rent to
grasping landlords. It was not till the
census of 1880 was compiled and pub
lished that we learned that there were
1,024,001 farms in the United States
occupied by tenants. But "the
wonder grew" when people read that
there were 80,244 farms in Illinois
worked by parties who had no title to
the soil. Still greater surprise was ex
pressed that there were 44,174 rented
farms in Iowa, 38,892 in Missouri, 22,
651 in Kansas and 11,419 in Nebraska.
Persons who have taken pains to col
lect information on the subject («press
the opinion that the number of tenant
farmers in the country has increased
at least twenty per cent, since the last
census was taken. If this is the case
there are now in this country about
250,000 more tenant farmers than
in Great Britain and Ireland. Many
extensive land owners have laid ont
farms of eighty acres each, broke half
of the land, erected cheap buildings
and rented them. Persons who have
taken up tree claims have had a part
of the land plowed and leased the land
to tenants who were too poor to make
improvements for themselves. In the
alder of all the Western States thou
sands of wealthy farmers have leased
their land and moved to towns to live,
where they think they can enjoy life to
better advantage. Others continue to
occupy the farm-house, tend the garden,
and keep some stock, while tbeir ten
ants supply them with food and
money.
When money could be let out for ten
per cent, on good securitv capitalists
did not desire to invest their money in
farming land, either for occupancy or
for the purpose of renting. But at a
low rate of interest they find farming
land to be a good investment. The de
cline in the price of farm products has
apparently had no effect on the rent of
farms, fhe number desiring to rent
farms is increasing in all the Western
States and Territories. Men who
worked as hired laborers while they
were single desire to rent farms as
soon as they are married. Our wealthy
farmers have not adopted the plan,
which is pursued by most European
countries, of employing married men,
who can live in cottages, to work on
their places. They prefer to hire
single men who can board in their
families. Farm hands who marry be
come tenant farmers or move farther
West where they can obtain land of
their own. They have the means to«
make the journey and to acquire a
homestead right, but they have not
the means to enable them to break
prairie sod, build fences, erect build
ings, buy teams, implements and seed,
and to pay the expense of living until
a crop is raised. They therefore com
mence married life as tenant farmers,
of instances re
e number of ten
ant farmers will increase from year to
year seems probable. In five years'
time it will be very dificult to obtain
public land that is of much value for
agricultural purposes. During this
period the price of land owned by in
dividuals will become so high as to be
out of the reach ot men . of small
means .— San Francisco Chronicle.

COLUMBUS CENTENARY.
i Mighty Contest Over the Great Navi
ffator'a Birthplace.
Seven cities contended for the honor
< i having given birth to Homer. There
»re as many claimants for the glory
of Christopher Colnmbus—Genoa,
Oneglia, Boggiasco, Savona and sev
eral others. Posterity, however, has
not as yet granted definite possession
to any of them; but in presence of the
discovery of very recent and very au
thentic titles, it inclines more" and
more to admit the claim of a new
comer for the inheritance of honor.
This new pretender is none other than
the town of Calvi, Corsica, Christo
pher Columbus was not then a Genoese,
but a Corsican, It is to the Abbe Casa
nova, a learned investigator, that the
honor is due of having called a liait to
what threatened to soon become the
prescription of the ages. This nine
teenth century Benedictine has con
secrated his whole life to the accom
plishment of this great work; the old
archives of the Italian republics, the
dusty registers of the libraries of the
Renaissance have at last yielded up the
secret that race spirit has kept hidden
so long. Even the Italian historians,
staggered and convinced in spite of
themselves, now only ask for a brief
delay of grace to make the amende hon
orable to the little country so long
robbed of her great son. The origin of
this historical error is easily found.
Corsica, subjected or rather in a state
of rebellion against Genoese domina
tion before, during and after the fif
teenth century, sought no other glory
than to be found on the battle-field,
under its heroes, the Ornanos and
Sampieros,while Abbe Casanovas of the
day taught their countrymen that their
highest good was to die'bravely. These
poor people lived lighting, and so could
give no attention to the glory of dis
covery.
The most serene republic, always on
the lookout for gain, appropriated
Christopher Columbus. This jewel
was an ample compensation for the
tribute which little Corsica stoutly re
fused to pay. The piece of robïiery
passed unobserved, all the more easily
as the town of Calvi, to which Genoa
had left its magistrates, its customs
and a certain autonomy, had ended by
contentedly accepting Genoese domi
nation. Whence the famous inscrip
tion still carved over its gate, "Civitas
Calvi semper fidelis." A citizen of
Calvi, especially if he brought any
prestige to the republic, was appropri
ated without ceremony, and the confis
cation of the great sailor, by letters
patent so to speak, chimed in harmo
niously with the character of that com
mercial and speculative people.
The little town of Calvi, now making
preparations for the celebration of this
great centenary, will at last see ils
name redeemed from an unjust ob
livion. Perched on a rock, on the west
coast of the island, Calvi was long
deemed impregnable. Nelson thought
it worth his while to come and attack
it in person, and lost an eye for his
pains. The English succeeded in cap
turing it, but the Corsicans beat them
out of it again. In the clear autumn
evenings one can see from the summit
of its citadel the dim outlines of the
shore of the continent and the spurs of
the Maritime Alps.-—Paris Figaro.

KIT CARSON.
Governor Stoneman's Recollection, of th
Famous Old Ncout.
In conversation the other (lay with
some gentlemen in the Governor's of
fice, the name of Kit Carson was men
tioned. The Governor said: "Poor
Kit is dead. He was a broad-shoul
dered, open-hearted, brave fellow. I
remember his spending a few weeks in
our camp in Southern California in
1847. The only way we could commu
nicate with the National capital was by
messengers on horseback. It was a
long, dreary, lonesome ride of three
thousand miles, fraught with many
dangers. Kit was one of those scouts
Y.'ho thought nothing of making such a
trip. I taught him to write his name
while he was in camp. Having been
elected a Lieutenant, it was necessary
for him occasionally to sign papers. I
remember he would insist upon writing
it in full—Christopher Columbus Car
son-taking up a whole sheet of paper
in doing so. Kit was genial, jovial
and a most interesting companion.
While in camp we have often played
seven-up, and practiced shooting the
rifle together. Kit could beat me at
both, being an adept at cards and a
crack shot. When wo played it was
for a picayune, and we shot for the
same stake. When Carson was ready
to leave for the East with his messages,
I cast up accounts, and discovered that
he was about five dollars ahead of me.
Our target was a small silver coin
placed in a split in a limb,
up to Kit and said:
let's have one last shot,
five dollars that I can hit the picayune
at the first shot.' 'Agreed,' said Kit,
and the money was put up. I walked
deliberately up to the coin, put the
muzzle of the gun against it and blew
it to atoms. Kit was the maddest man
I ever saw for a few moments. He
walked about the camp in quite a rage,
and denounced my act as a 'damned
mean Yankee trick.' He soon, how
ever, got over his pet, and seemed to
enjoy the laugh as much as any one,
and we parted, as we had always lived,
friends. ' '—Sacramento Record- Union.
