Mr. Schumaker, an Ohio Prohibition candi¬ 
date, employs no one in his mills who uses 
liquor or tobacco. 
Mrs. David Davis sends word from her home 
in Illinois to her people in North Carolina 
that her married life is extremely happy. 
Mr. Storey, the editor and proprietor of the 
Chicago Times, is nearly seventy years old, 
and is living quietly while ho is building one 
of the largest private residences in the coun¬ 
try. 
C. P. Huntington, the great railroad mag¬ 
nate, was a poor boy and a hard-working 
young man. He did not begin to accumu¬ 
late his immense fortune until he was past 
forty, when he staked all his savings on the 
the scheme of the Pacific Railroad. 
Miss Lydia Poet, having gone through a 
regular examination, has been admitted as a 
lawyer to the bar of Torino, Italy, with eight 
votes against four. After her admission to 
the bar two members of the Council, Mr. 
Spantigati, M. P., and Mr. Chiaves, resigned. 
The Abbe Franz Liszt, who has been stay¬ 
ing for some time in Weimar, is giving the 
finishing touches to his great oratorio, “ Stan¬ 
islaus. 1 ’ He occupies his spare moments in 
writing valses and every alternate day he re¬ 
ceives his numerous pupils. He intends to 
prolong his stay at Weimar till the end of 
October. 
Sitting Bull who is visiting Bismarck, Dak., 
to be present at the ceremonies of laying the 
foundation stone of the Capitol there, abso¬ 
lutely refuses to attend the Iowa Agricultural 
Fair atDes Molues, though a Director went to 
Fort Yates to escort him thither. He says he 
fears that he might be killed at Des Moines; 
but his fears might be removed by a liberal 
offer of money for being put on exhibition. 
Senator Don Cameron, who is driving 
through England, writes to his father that his 
health is improving. He says: ‘‘This is a 
great apple country, and the trees are loaded 
dowu with fruit. They make great quanti¬ 
ties of cider, and the orchards arc profitable. 
Cultivating hops is a profitable business. It 
seems to me that we ought to raise them with 
equal profit in our country. I am sure that 
if we had persons who thoroughly understood 
takiug care of sheep we could make it pay, 
and at the same time improve our lands. I 
intend to hunt up a shepherd in Scotland and 
try it at Hummelstown.”
