Terror Snwber Oim.
Every Jay the bull trains, male team,
And stage, roll into the Black Hills with
their loads of "fresh fish," a the vet
erans call the new arrivals from the East.
Theae fresh fish" rush for hotels, boarding-nooses
and saloons, get a meal or a
lnneh, and are presently eeu walking np
and down the streets of the frontier city
or collecting on the corners to hear the
latest news from the diggings and the
prospects of striking job.
The other day, when a wagon load of
boll-heads was damped oat in Custer
City, as wagon loads had been dumped
out every day before since grass sUrted, I
the first man to welcome them to the m-
fant city was a chap five feet high, and
weighing accordingly. There was a
blood-stain on his left cheek, a scar on
bis right, and he had fierce eyes, a voice
like a roaring lion, and a bad limp in one
of his-legs. He was whittling out a ten
pin with a big bowie-knife as the wagon
drove up, and pushing the knife down
the back of his neck he lifted up a Henry
rine, ran his eye over the crowd, and,
called out in an'awful voice: -
"Is there anybody in that crowd look
ing for Terror No. I? Kane if there is,
here I am ; and I'm just aching to be shot
full of bullets weighing about a pound
piece I". . .'
No one was looking for him. Some
looked at him, and some looked across
the street on purpose not to see him,
while there was a uniform movement
toward hip pockets.
"I didn't know but that some of you
might have come out here from New
York or Boston to plant me under the
sweet jessamine or the climbing morn
ing glory," chuckled the terror, as he
rested the butt of his riile ou the ground
and flirted up a six-shooter from his boot-
leg-' i , ; . -
There were men from New York and
Boston nn the party, "but they didn't
want to bury anybody just then.
"I don't own this town," continued
the Terror, as he laid his infant armory
across the head of a barrel. "I don't
own a foot of ground or a share in any
of the public buildings erected at the ex
pense of taxpayers, but when I stand on
Washington square and utter one yell
this whole town quakes. I'm Terror
No. 1. There's one or two other Terrors
around here, but I'm the boas I'm the
reg'lar death's head and cross bones of
the Black Hills region 1"
. Before he had ceased speaking most of
the new oomers had disappeared, some
looking pale and anxious, and others
feeling shivers race up and down their
backs.
An hour later, when party of five
strangers from 'ew England were mak
ing the acquaintance of the infernal bev
erages on sale in one of the shanty
saloons, and at the same time pumping
the proprietor about prospects, : in
walked the Terror. He looked as fierce
as a catamount cheated ont of her des
sert, and there was an awful growl in his
voice as he called ont:
"Five o'clock by Omaha time, and I
ftWkXkiHed or been killed this whole
day longi urn loose your pet grizzlies,
unhitch vour whirlwinds, and let a dozea
wild lion's come for me at once!
"Take something to drink, my good
friend," mildly replied the saloon int.
, "You are always welcome here, but you
' don't drop in half Often enough. Don't
be afraid to pour out all you want."
"To tell the honest truth, Steve," said
the Terror, as he poured out nearly half
a pint of the meanest whixky ever made,
"1 came jn here to kill some one; but
you are a white man clear down to your
toe nails, and ;I won't raise no row.
That's good whisky, that is, and if you
want any one in Custer City put under
ground, just give me his name. Can you
think of any one?"
Thealoon keeper reflected for a mo
ment, as he. slowly wiped off his bar
rith an old calico apron, and finally he
, replied: . v
'.'No; I don't think of any one just now,
but something will probably turn up in
day or two. Any time you feel thirsty
come in and help yourself."
One of the five men had formerly been
a moulder in Troy stove foundry, and
be had been closely watching the Terror.
All of a sudden he held ont his hand for-;
shake, cheerfully observing:
"I'll bet one hundred to one that we
used to work, board and room together."
The Terror reached ont his hand,
. olosely scanned the moulder's face, aud
after moment he said to the whole five:
"Gentlemen, come out doors and take
seats on the bench. I begin to know
' this man, and I don't want to answer
any questions in here."
"Well, but I am surprised to find
you out here and rigged up in this
style," remarked the moulder as the
men found scats.
"So yon may be,'. slowly replied the
Terror. "When I worked in Troy
there wasn't a man or boy about the shop
who couldn't make me eat dirt. I was
one of the biggest eowards "east of Chi
cago, and now I'm one of the biggest
west of that town. I own right up, be
cause I know you won't go back on me.
I might fight if I was cornered, bnt if
there was chance to run or crawl out I
wouldn't strike a blow.?
"But yon talk very 1 brave," said one.
"And it's all tolk." replied the Terror,
M be picked liis teeth with his bowie
knife. "1 floated out here from Chicago,
- poor as a rat, and the biggest coward in
the whole train. If luck hadn't favored
me I should have been under the sod
long ago. I've got an awful voice, and I
an look as ugly as a bear in a trap; but
oomehow or other the story got afloat that
I killed two men in Chicago, was rescued
from the gallows by a mob, and that I
- had come out here to. escape justice.
Men gTew afraid of me, and I soon got
. the cue. : I determined to become a Ter
ror in order to' make an honest living,
and I've got the tiling right down fine."
"Are yon not a fighter and a shooter
and slasher?"
. "Gentlemen, it's kind o' mean for a
mau to run his own character down, but
to b honest about it, I dou't suppose
there is man in Custer City who
couldn't wollop ma inside of fifteen min
ute by the watch. I go around simply
to make a show. If that saloon keeper
bad reached out for me you'd have seen
me dig out mighty lively. But these
weapous, the name I've got, and my anx
ious look for gore frightened him half to
death." ,
"es, everyboSy seems afraid of yon,"
observed the man from Troy.
"Afraid? I guess they are! When I
. walk into a place everybody begins to
quake and shiver, though I have never
' drawn blood in this town. There comes
the chap who acts as Marshal, Sheriff,
Chief of Police, or whatever you may
call him. He's six feet high and weigh
over two hundred pounds, and yet see
how I can bluff him."
The official referred to was coming up
the street at leisurely gait, and when
' be came along epposite the group the
Terror leaped out with a wild yell and
shouted; V
"Jjookwg for me. are youl Want to
aee me bad, lo yon!"
"i'or ito jtmM doa't raise row

looked atcttf J f oi ootsr. "I don't Want
yon, you don . want luel' " T . '
' "Yon see how it works,'' continued the
little man as the official moved on. "That
man eonld make my heels break my
neck, and yet he is afraid of me. Here
are some drizzly bear claws which I
bought in Omaha for two dollars. Every?
body around here thinks I pulled the
beast ont of a hole in the bill, held him
by the ears with one hand, and cut theae
claws off with the other. There are
twenty notches in the stock of this rifle.
These folks around here have got an idea
that I hare killed twenty men in rows or
fair fights, but I never even shot at one."
There was a period of silence, and then
the Terror continued: .
"There, money in it, and it's rather
pleasant to be top of the heap, but this
thing can't last Ion a;. Home day before
long I shall light down on the wrong
man and he'll dress me down and drive
me to the hills. I hope you- boys will
have lots of lnck. I've been square and
honest with you, and now don't give me
away." . ?.?:' - .
At that moment three men on horse
back came down the street, and the Ter
ror jumped out with a screech and
shouted: ,. '
"Here's the holyhock you are looking
for. Here's the modest violet who wants
to be carved up and fed to the wolves!"
They weren t looking for him, and '
they got away on a gallop. The party I
from the East went ont among the dig
gings and were absent a whole week.
When they returned to Custer City, they
inquired for the Terror, and a hotel
keeper replied: F
"Yes; they did use to call him the
Terror, I believe, but they didn't know
him. He was whooping around here in

A Shadow that Would Sot Out.
. When, in the early days of July, John
Abbott was brought from the steaming
depths of the Union, his head crushed by
falling wall plate, he was laid on the.
floor of the office and medical aid sum
moned to minister to his wants, although
it was plain that he must die.
Next morning Superintendent Rooney
noticed whore the clvinir man had been
placed that his outline lay like a shadow
on the floor. He ordered the janitor to
clean the boards whioh was done. Before
Roooov went to dinner the shadow rear
peared. He ordered the floor thoroughly
scrubbed and went to bis family.
The next morning the floor showed
that vigorous application of soap and
brush had been made and the floor was
white aud clean. But during the day
that shadow returned and at night there
it lay as though the man was still waiting
death on that floor.
Next day Rooney ordered tho floor
painted. With the coming of the paint
pot the Bhadow vanished, but after a day
or two returned and once more limned
itself on that office floor. Rooney then
again sent for the painter and had a
second and a heavy coat of paint put on,
not only where the shadow lay but over
we enure noor.
This was his last command of "Out,
damned spot;" bnt it wonld not out. In
a few days there it was again, and with
each day it grew more and more distinct.
Even strangers at lemrth began to notice
it and to comment on its resemblance to
human form. ' .
Its presence at length became intolera
ble and Rooney had all the boards of the
floor on which this heavy and terrible
shadow rested, taken out and replaced
- with new. The paint brush then follow
ed, and now that outlined figure from the
floor has disappeared. Qold Hill News.
How She Kept an Expense Acconnt.
"My dear fellow," said Lavender, "it's
all very nioe about economizing, and
keeping a right rigid account of expenses
and all that sort of thing, but I've tried
it. Two weeks ago I stopped on my way
home, Saturday night, and I bought just
the gayest little Russia-leather, cream
laid paper account book you ever saw,
and a silver pencil to match it. I said to
my wife,' after supper: 'My dear, it
seems to me that it costs us lot of
money to keep honne.'
"She sighed and Baid: 'I know it
does, Ldtvvy, but I'm sure I can't help it.
I'm just an economical as I can be. I
don't spend half as much money for
candy a you do for cigars.'
"I never take any notice of personali
ties, so I sailed right ahead. I believe,
my dear, that if we were to keep a strict
account of everything we spend we could
tell just whoro to cut down. I've bought
yon a little account book, and every
Monday morning I'll give you some
money, and you can set it down on one
side, and then, during the week, you can
set down on the other side everything
yon spend; and then, on Saturday night,
we can go over it and see just where the
money goes, and how we can boil things
down a little.' t
"Well, sir, she was just delighted
thought it was a first rate plan, and the
pocket account book was lovely. Well,
the next Saturday night we got through
supper, and she brought out the account
book as proud as possible, and handed it
over for inspection. On one side was,
'Received from Larry $20.' That was
all right. Then I looked on the other
page, and what do you think was there?
'Spent it all!' Then I laughed, and, of
course, we gave np the account book on
the spot, by mutual consent.' Yes, sir,
I've been there, and I know what domes
tic economy means, I tell you.'f

' " The W. Ultm; w
-' On s hot day in July, 1850, A nerihv
man was moving bis cattle to ranch
farther north, near Helena, Texas, audi
while passing ' down the banks of a
stream, other cattle that were grazing in
the valley became mixed with his herd,
and some of them failed to be separated.
The next day about noon band of
mounted "rangers" overtook the herds
man and demanded their cattle, whioh
they said had been stolen. It was before
the day of law and courthouses in Texas,
and one had better kill five men than
steal a mule worth five dollars, and the
herdsman knew it. He tried to explain,
bnt they told him to "cut it short.'1 He
offered to turn over all the cattle not his
own, but they laughed at the proposi
tion, and hinted that they usually confis
cated, the whole herd, and left the thief
hanging on a tree as warning to others
. in like oases. The poor fellow was com
pletely overcome. The Texans consulted
apart for a few moments, and then told
him if he hod any explanations to make,
or business matters to attend to, they
wonld allow him ten minutes time. He
turned to the rough faces and com
menced: i "How many of you have wives?"
Two or three nodded.
"How many of you have children?"
They nodded again.
"Then I know who I am talking to.
and you'll hear me;'' and he continued:
"I never stole any cattle. I have
lived in these parts about three years. I j

customer; bnt this is a hard oountry.
Days seem like months to me, and
months like years. Married men, you

(here he pulled out handful of well
worn envelopes and letters from his

and go home in November. Here is my

; "Now, men, if you have decided to kill
me for what I am innocent of, send these
home, and send as much as you can from

send half the value? My family will
need it."

a rough ranger. "Now, I say, boys," he

The Theory of Daltonism.
The diHchromia theory renders it easy
to state what the sensations of color
blindness are, although it is not easy for
a normal-eyed person to imagine the appearance-
and impressions so utterly
strange to him which they lead to. The
color-blind person has only two sensa'
tions of color. One of them is excited
most strongly by rays which the world
call yellow, the other by rays which the
world call blue; and hence all color-blind
persons concur in giving these names re
spectively to their two visible colors.
Bnt their power of vision do not end
here; they receive a vast number of
sensations differing materially from pure
yellow and pure blue, and which give
great variety to their impressions of ma
terial objects. In the first place, they
have great varieties in the intensity or
degree of saturation of the two colors
themselves. In some cases the yellow is
intense and full, as if the buttercup or
tho pigment chromo yellow, at other
bmes it is weak and palo as in the prim
rose. And similarly in some cases the
blue is very full and intense, as the color
of the sky. But further, independently
of these two colors, they have a white
and a black prominent and as distinot to
them as the normal-eyed. Whether the
sensations correspond in the two cases is
a matter of controversy; but this much is
certain namely, that all objects which
convey to the normal-eyed sensations of
white and block, also convey to the
color-blind person his sensations of white
and black, for which reason he is per
fectly justified in using, for such sensa
tions, the same terms. Further, the
color-blind person is quite incapable of
appreciating the immense varieties of
shade caused by the mixture of white
and black in different proportions, form
ing an almost infinite series of shades of
gray. Then, lastly, all these varieties of
gray may be combined with the various
intensities of either of their two colors,
forming different nuances of them, and
so, still further, vastly increasing the
varieties of sensation. Contemporary

i Oatmeal as an Article of Diet.
i It is surprising how enormously the
consumption of oatmeal has increased in
our cities within the past few years; bnt
we suspect that its merits as a cheap and
highly nutritious food are not so gener
ally appreciated in the country. Every
one knows how generally it is eaten in
Scotland, and in some parts of England
it is equally popular as an article of diet.
A correspondent of an English exchange
says: In West Cumberland, Westmore
land and North Lancashire, especially in
the rural parts, it forms the staple of our
food, not only amongst the laboring
classes, but also in the families of trades
men and the well-to-do; the children of
most of them have porridge at least once
a day. For the past forty years 1 have
made my breakfast of a pint of oatmeal
porridge, with very rare exceptions, and
and nothing else, fasting for hours after
ward. If, however, I take any other
form of breakfast, I find myself very
hungry before the . next meal, which is
never the case when I have hod my por
ridge. I feel assured that if the laborers
of the southern counties, with their chil
dren, would but take a basin of oatmeal
and mild porridge night and morning,
with such other food as they can procure
in the interval, we should have a much
stronger and healthier race of men and
women than now exist. A few years ago
I had a Devonshire girl living with me
as a servant. The girl was willing enough
to work, but had not the stamina to per
form it. This, I found, on questioning
her, arose from the deficient and ill-advised
diet on which she had been reared.
She shortly began to take her porridge
night and morning, and this, with a daily
mid-day meal of meat, enabled her to
perform her duties with ease.
Gratitude of Elephants. A story
comes from Tenbnry, England, where a
menagerie has been paying a visit, which
illustrates the well Known character of
the elephant for humane feelings in a re
markable degree. Among the animals
was a fine female elephant, called Lizzie,
which was attacked with a violent fit of
colic and suffered intensely. A local
chemist, whose success as an animal doc
tor is well known, treated Lizzie and
saved the animal's life. On the proces
sion passing the chemists' shop on Fri
day, the elephant immediately recognized
her benefactor, who was standing at the
door of his shop, and on going to him,
gracefully placed (her trunk in his hand.
The chemist visited the exhibition at
night and met with an unexpected re
ception from bis former patient. Gently
seizing the "doctor" with her trunk, the
elephant encircled him with it to the
terror of the audience, who expected to,
see him crushed to death ; but Lizzie had
no such intention, and after having thus
demonstrated her gratitude by acts more
eloquent than words, she released the
doctor from her embrace and proceeded
with her appointed tank. - That elephant
seems to possess a holier sense - of grati
tude than some people do. . .

Raikes remarks that the utility of the
Sunday school work was first suggested
to him "by a group of miserable little
wretches whom I observed one day in
the streets where many people employed
in the pin manufactory reside." He was
told that if he were to pass through that
street on a bnnday it would shock him
indeed "to see the crowds of children
who were spending that sacred day in
noise and riot, to the extreme annoyance
of all decent people." He immediately
determined to make some little effort to
remedy the evil. "Having found four
persons," he says, "who had been accus
tomed to instruct children in reading, I
engaged to wav the sum reouired for re
ceiving and instructing such children as
I should send to them every Sunday. The
children were to come soon after lu in
the morning and stay till 12 they were
then to go home and return at 1, and after
reading a lesson they were to be con
ducted to church. After church thev
were to be employed in repeating the
catechism until half after 6, and then to
be dismissed with an injunction to go
home without making a noise, and by no
means to play in the streets." The tisrt
school was opened at Gloucester in July
1780

"I must tell you," said a skipper, as he
took a fresh cigar, "about Stues, ship
mate of mine on one of my early voy
ages. Stiles was a . simple-hearted,
transparent young fellow, and, when we
sailed, had been 'payin' attention' to a
young lady, whom he had reason to think
did not fully reciprocate his ardent feel
ings. At all events, the parting on her
side was not so affectionate as he could
wish, and he was impressed with the lie
lief that she only kept him as a standby,
in default of a better offer.
'I don't believe,' Stiles would say
with a despondent shake of his head.

monologue changed to "Well, I don'no

" With a thousand barrels under hatches
he became still more hopeful. 'Chance
is pretty good for Ann Jones," he would
say. 'Pretty good now.' " -
"At fifteen hundred barrels, he had
assumed a self-satisfied manner, and thus
soliloquized, 'I guess there's no danger
but what Ann Jones U have me now.
"At two thousand barrels 'Ann Jones

"When we cut the last whale that was
to fill the Rose, and squared away for

with a yell of triumph 'I'll be blowed if

---vv A Costs triaiiallofl. ,
A young lady moving fa tha Wsi ex
alted social circles of Galveston, after
much toil and practice at. the piano
learned to play with considerable dexter
ity a piece entitled 'Pi6nio , Polka.. It
is something after the style of the cele-
brated "Battle of Prague." In "Which tha i
listener can readily distinguish' the roar
of artillery, the rattle of musketry, the
shouts of the soldiers and the groans of
the dying. In the "Picnic Polka" the
noise of the wind among the trees and
the joyous carols of the "birds are repro
duced, the finale being a thunder shower
which disturbed the svlvan revellers. - It
happens that a country . cousin is in towni
jus now, ana the young lady tnougm
bus wouia . piay the piece to mm ana
hear his comment. He is a plain, Sim
ple minded youth, and although he u
not very bright.-is very appreciative.
She told him what the piece was and
then proceeded to give him the "Pionio
Polka." The first notes are rather slow
and hesitating, the idea Sought to be
conveyed being tha solemn- solitude of
the forest, through which" the gentle
zephyr (not heifer) sighs. After she got
through with this preface, she asked him
if he did not almost imagine himself in a
lodge in some vast wilderness." He re
plied that he thought all that slowness
meant the delay in getting off. Said he,
"mere is always: some darned fellow
that oversleeps himself and keeps every
body else. waiting." , , .
She did not care to discuss the point
with the ignorant fellow, so to conceal
her emotions, she once more let herself
out on the piano. The bird whistled as
if his throat would split, the cuckoo filled
the sylvan bowers with bis repeated cry,
while eyer and anon the mournful cooing
of the dove interrupted the matin song
of the lark. -
"There, now, I guess you know what
that sounds like," she said as she
paused.
"You mean that "'tootle, tootle, tootle,
chug, chug, chug?' You just bet I un
derstand that. . Many , is the time at a
picnic I've heard it from the mouth of a
demijohn or the bunghole of a beer
keg." - -:'- -;
Her first impulse was to hurl the piano
stool at him, but it passed off, and once
more she wont for the piano as if it was
the young man's head and was insured
for double its value. The thunder
growled, the lightning flashed (from her
eyes), and the first heavy drops are
heard upon the leaves. She banged and
mauled the keys at a fearful rate; peal
after peal of deafening thunder perturbed
the atmosphere and' re-echoed iu still
louder reverbations until it wound up in
one appalling clap as a grand finale.
Then turning to the awe struck youth,
she said:
"I suppose you have heard something
like that before?"
"Yes, that's what the fellow with the
linen pants said when he sat down on the
custard pie."
The audience found himself alone, but
he picked up his hat aud sauntered out
into the street, densely unconscious that
be had said anything ont of the way.
Galveston News.
A Trlbste to Woman.
The following beautiful tribute to
woman was written several years ago. It
occurs in a tale of touching interest en
titled "Broken Heart" its author Dr. F.
J. Stratton: : :
Oh, the priceless value of the love of a
pure woman! Gold can not purchase a
gem so precious! Titles and honor con
fer upon the heart no such serene haopi
ness. In our darkest moments, when
disappointment and ingratitude, with
corroding care gathering thick around,
and even the gaunt form of poverty men
aces with his skeleton fingers, it gleams
around the soul with an angel's smile.
Time cannot mar its brilliancy; distance
but strengthens its influence; bolts and
bars cannot limit its progress; it fellows
the prisoner into his dark cell, and
sweetens the home morsel that appeases
his hunger, and in the silence of mid
night it plays around his heart, and in
his dreams he folds to his bosom the
form Of her who loves on still, though
the world has turned coldly from him.
The couch made by the hand of the
loved one is soft to the weary limbs of
the sick sufferer, and the potion admin
istered by the same hand loses half its
bitterness. The pillow carefully adjusted
by her brings repose to the fevered brain
and her words of kind encouragement
survive the sinking spirit. It would al
most seem that God, compassionating
woman's first great frailty, had planted
this jewel in her breast, whose heaven
like influence should cast into forgetful -ness
man's remembrance of the fall, by
building up in his heart another Eden
where perennial flowers forever bloom
and crystal waters gush from exhaustless
fountains.
Gould's Stabt n Life. The million
aire started as a self-made surveyor. He
put his few rude instrument in a wheel
barrow, and trundled it from point to
point, very much as Fisk peddled alout
the country in a wagon. One of the best
maps of Delaware county has on the
margin, "Surveyed by Jay Gould.", He
had quite a nack for trading, was very
sharp as a cattle dealer, and one time he
got a lesson that lasted for a life. A far
mer had a herd of cattle, and Jay went
to look at them. In the midst of the
bartering a woman apxeared who had a
talk with the old farmer, and Jay catch
ing a word or two, heard her imploring
him not to sell her cow. "I shall die if
you do," she cried. "What's the matter
with that woman ?" asked Gould in his
?uietway. "Oh, nothing ; she's afraid
am going to sell her favorite cow, old
Pailful." Gould thought ho bad found a
prize: Ho demanded that- the cow le
brought out, and insisted when he saw
her that she must go with the lot. The
cattle were driven home, and Jay's father
sent him to see what kind of a milker old
Pailful was. Jay had hardly seated him
self before the cow kicked him, pail and
stool sky high, tore around tho pasture,
leaped the fence, and started toward
home. Jay has neyer bought anything
from that day to this that a woman
wanted to keep.
South American Glacikbs. By let
ters recently received in England from
Mr. Whymper, we learn that his last as
cents in Ecuador have been those of
Cayambe, Saraurcu and Cotocaohi. . He
has found very extensive glaciers on all
these mountains, besides having previ
ously discovored others on Chimborazo,
Sinc'holagua, Antiaana, Cotopaxi, Illin
iza, Barahuairazo and Qnilindana. How
little is at present known of the" Andes of
Ecuador may be judged from the fact
that in the edition of "Encyclopaedia
Britannica" now appearing, in the article
on Ecuador it is stated that the crater of
the mountain Altar is remarkable as con
taining "the bed of the only real glacier
known to exist in the Ecuadorian Andes."
Mr. Whymper says that there are no gla
ciers upon Corazon, Imbabura, or Pin
chincha, but that among those upon the
mountains which , we have enumerated
above there are many glaciers which are
as large as the largest Alpine ones, and
that the upper 4,000 feet of Cayambe,
Aatisana and Chimborazo are almost
oompletelv enveloped by them. f Pall

The Rioht Kind of Pbide. The
Giboa (New York) Monitor makes the
following sensible remarks for the bene
fit of young people; who are working
their way. A young man "that works
for his board," no matter- what honest
work he does, has no reason for shame.
A young man who eats the bread of idle
ness,, no matter how much he has, is dis
graced. All men starting in life ought
to aim, first of all to find a place where
they can earn their bread and nutter,
with hoe, axe, spade, wheelbarrow, curry
comb, blacking brushno matter how.
Independence first. The bread and but,
ter settled, let the young man perform
bis duty so faithfully as to attract
attention, and let him constantly keep
his eye open for a chance to do better.
About half the poor, proud young men,
and two-thirds of the poor discouraged
young men, are always out of work. The
young man who pockets -his pride, and
carries a stiff upper-lip, need not starve,
and he stands a chance to become rich.

ardette tells about bis trip oh the
sound, on the way to Nantucket. Says
he: It is summer time: and the stars, the
eternal, changeless, beautiful stars, just
sit down a minute and let me tell you
about those stars. : Very near us sat two
young people. They sat up and looked
at the stars, and they didn't care for any
solitary thing, any nearer to this earth.
."Mortimer," she murmured softly,
"Mortimer" hia name appeared to be
Mortimer, , though I couldn't learn
whether it was his front name or his after

we could only live apart- from this busy
and sordid, unsympathetic world, in one
of yon glittering orbs of golden radiance.
living apart from all else, only for each
other, forgetting the base things of
earthly life, the coarse greed of the
world and its animal inBtincts, that would
be our heaven, would it not, dear?"
And Mortimer he said that it would.
"There, heart of my own," he said, and
his voice trembled with earnestness,
"my own darling Ethel, through all the
soft radiance of the day and all the
shimmering tenderness of night, our
lives would pas away iu an exalted at
mosphere, above the base-born wants of
earthly mortals, and far beyond the
chattering crowd that lives but for to

at the back of Ethel's hand and plunged

Lady Smokers.
That a great many ladies in New York
City indulge in the fragrant cigarette is
an open secret. Indeed, the custom has
become so universal that it can hardly
oe caiiett a secret at all.
It used to be very common for girls.
when a party of them met in some quiet
place, where there were no men, to take
a few puffs at a cigarette for the sake of
the forbidden fruit sensation. But now
they are more bold about it, and I will
venture to say that the majority of New
York girls smoke cigarettes. A number
of gentlemen have told me that their
wives would take a cigarette after dinner
when they took their cigar, and they ap
proved of the custom. I knew one lady.
one of the highest born in the land, who
was an inveterate smoker until forbidden
by her physician. , -'
Spanish, Russian and Polish ladies
smoke, almost as much as the men, arid
no one thinks the worse of them for it.
I should not like to see ladies smoke ci
gars or pipes, bnt I see no impropriety
in an occasional cigarette. mere is
greas ninerence in tue way they are
smoked. I have seen some women
smoke a eigrrette so daintily that it was
a beautiful sight to wateh tho delicate
smoke curling np from their rosy lips.
while others puff away in such a mascu
line manner that one becomes thoroughly
uisgusieu. a nave been at a. number of
(tinner parties wuere cigarettes were
paused around to the ladies when cigars
were brought to the gentlemen. I am
talking about the best people now, not
.Bonemians.
If the waiters of Delmonico's or the
Brunswick would tell you, you would be
surprised at the number of private par.
ties where cigarettes are smoked by la
dies. If you ask a lady plump out
whether she smokes, she will evade the
question until she has sounded your
opinions, and it they are favorable, she
will generally confess in the affirmative.
I have heard some people say that they
would ratuer see a woman drink than
smoke; that they thought thelatter more
masculine. I do not think so, and the
cnects of a cigarette are certainly more
innocent than of. champagne or whisky.

Popular Ideas op the Cross. In
the west of England there is a tradition
that the cross was formed of the mistle
toe, which before that event used to be a
fine forest tree, but has since been
doomed to lead a parasitical existence.
The gypsies believe that it was made of
the ash tree. The nails used at the cru
cifixion, said to have been found by
Helena, are reported to liave worked
many miracles. One of them was thrown
by her into the Adriatio during a storm,
and produced a perfect calm. Another.
placed in the crown or helm of Constan
tino, was found in a mutilated state in
the church of Santa Crooe. The third is
said to be in the possession of the Duemo
of Milan, while that of Treves claims
the fourth. In the time of Charlemange
a new relic was discovered in the shapo
of a sponge soaked in the blood of
Christ. In Cheshire the Arum macula
tum is called "Gethsemane," because it
is said to have been growing at the foot
of the cross, and to have received some
drops of blood on its petals. "Christ's
thorn" is a very common plant in Pales
tine. -In Scotland it was formerly be
lieved that the dwarf birch is stunted in
growth because the rods with which
Christ was sorourged were made from it.
These are the popular ideas of the ma
terial of tho cross, some of which will,
perhaps, never be entirely obliterated
until the last great day, when "all
things shall be mode plain.'
HOW THE PlUTES PUNISH THE Un-
FArrHFun. From a party just in from
Prospect mountain we learn that one
week ago last Saturday, late at night,
there was a terrible din in the vicinity of
the Idaho mine, occasioned by whoop
ing, yelling, daring savages. Mr.
Thomas, foreman at the Idaho, con
cluded it was a fandango, as did others
who heard the racket and saw the flames.
The other day Mr. Thomas happened to
pass the spot where the remnants Of the
fire were still smoking and fragments of
the barbecue were scattered around. A
close inspection showed that the fire had
been built to wipe out a aqnaw. The
skull, fragments of bones and a brass
finger-ring were picked up. M. H.
Joseph now has the ring, a cheap affair,
such as is often worn by the squaws
about these parts. It is smoked up and
bears the evidence of having been sub
jected to great heat. It is getting to be
a serious matter for dusky maidens in
these parts to flirt with white trash, and
the Shoshone lords propose to squelch
that business as in days gone by by
cremating them on. the spot. Efureki

Margaret is in Naples at the palaic of

a sort of cake beaten flat in round
form, and seasoned with various condi
ments. The Queen sent for apizzainolo,
who isiamoos for his skill in making
these cakes, as she said "she wanted to
eat like the poor people." ; The man
went to the palace, was receive, and
having shown a list of thirty-five varie
ties of pizza, was sent to the royal
kitchen to' make the kind which the
Queen had selected. He made eight,

the little Prince and his mother found
them excellent, but to eat as the poor
people in Naples eat that is often not

Curability of Consuufptlon.
The best physicians are coming more
to acknowledge that tubercular consump
tion can be cured.
Dr. Carl Booth of New York, a man
eminent in the regular profession, claims
that he is able to cure sixty per cent, of
consumptives at all stages; and that it is
easy to arrest the disease in its early
stages. His aim is to secure live points:
1. To get the muscles which control
the action of the lungs into such a con
dition that they can draw the air forcibly
into the finest passages, thus clearing
the lungs of all phlegm and pus, and re
establishing capillary circulation and res
piration in the activity of the air-cells
generally.
2. To establish perfect digestion, as
similation and excretion. In this he
does not seek what to people generally
is the most nutritious and most easily-
digested food, but such as the particular
patient can most readily digt st and as
similate.
3. To heal the tubercles by transform
ing them into a cretaceous (chalk-like)
mass. He secures this (1) with food
rich in salts of lime; (2) certain miner
als, such as lime and silica; (3) certain
acids, such as citric, which promote the
oxidation of effete matter.
4. To increase the activity of the air
cells. This is accomplished by bringing
the patients under the influence, as much
as possible, of sunlight, ozone, fresh air,
and bodily exercise. He says: "They
sleep with open windows iu summer and
winter, and go out every day. So im
portant is out-door exerciMO that I insiat
that my patients go out in the rtin, snow,
dampness, and even in night air aud dew.
I have had no instance for twenty years
where a patient caught cold from such
exposure. I only guard against strong
head winds and extreme hot weather."
5. To prevent all unnecessary waste of
the nervous force, and to employ the lat
ter, as far as possible, in promoting tho
nutrition of the system. Youth Com

Unwritten History. In the life of
every one there is an unwritten history.
It may be better that this book is a book
sealed to the world, and open to him
only whose experiences are recorded
therein. But sometimes a glimpse is had
of the contents of this volume. The rec
ord is of life experiences of the aspira
tions of youth and their subsequent
destruction, of the selfish friendships of
the world and of the ultimate overthrow
of all the early plans of life. Somehow
or other, we seldom if ever attain the
ends and purpose we desire, but after a
struggle we drift helpless upon life's
treacherous ocean. We pass away, and
the little grave-mounds beneath which
we slumber are oblitered by the tread of
untold millions. After all we are not so
important to this world as we sometimes
imagine.
