Mr. Lorillard, the tobacco manufacturer, 
has bought an interist in the Frewen cattle 
herds in Wyoming. 
Hiram Sibley, the wealthy seedsman of 
Rochester, has sent $5,000 worth of seeds to 
the sufferers by the Mississippi floods. 
Mrs. Vanderbilt, the wife of the late Com¬ 
modore’s heir, pays her chief cook $7,000 a 
year, or more than the annual compensation 
of a United States Senator. 
Senor Sagast.a, the Prime Minister of Spain, 
is a vigorous and energetic speaker, and when 
he makes a long speech iu the Cortes he rare¬ 
ly fails to raise a tempest. He has a dark and 
wrinkled face, and small bright eyes. 
Monroe H Rosen field, alias El, C. Hurst, 
alias Laving, alias Einstein, alias II. L. Weir, 
was sentence! to two years’ imprisonment 
last week in Indianapolis for passing forged 
money orders, This melancholy termination 
of an active career will aid new pathos to the 
song “See that my graves’s kept green,” of 
which the convict, is said to be the author. 
M. Verestcbnkin, the distinguished painter 
of battle pictures, has recently had two 
singular compliments paid him by Continental 
Governments. So vividly has he depicted the 
horrors of the battle field that iu Russia the 
public exhibition of his paintings was alto¬ 
gether interdicted, while at Berlin the military 
authorities forbade soldiers to pay them a 
visit. 
B. H. Hill, Jr., telegraphs from Eureka 
Springs under date of May 13: “ Father’s 
wound is apparently healthy and healing 
slowly. His appetite is good, but an injury 
to his left jaw-bone preveuts him from chew¬ 
ing any solid food. His pulse, temperature, 
digestion and general condition is normal; bis 
own spirits are bright aud hopeful. Dr. 
Wright, who has been with him siuce the first 
operation, expressed himstdf as encouraged.” 
Mr. Charles W. Knight, of Delaware, who 
is f>7 years old and has been quite deaf from 
childhood, discovered that his hearing had 
returned to him during sleep ou the night of 
May 9 He says that on awaking Wednesday 
morning he heard a confusion of sounds below 
and on going down found it was produced 
by the movement of the lids upoa the top of 
the stove (n the preparation of the breakfast. 
George W. Cable, the New Orleans novelist, 
is hard at work upon a romance dealing with 
American types in that city.

*** “ Every truth has two sides; look at 
both before committing yourself to either.” 
Kidney-Wort challenges the closest scrutiny 
of its ingredients and its grand results. It 
has nothing to fear from truth. Doctors may 
disagree as to the best methods and remedies, 
for the cure of constipation and disordered 
liver and kidneys But those that have used 
Kidney-Wort, agree that it is by far the best 
mediciue known. Its action is prompt, thor¬ 
ough and lasting.—Ada.
