HOW TO ROLL AN UMBRELLA. Almost Everybody Uoos It Wrong;, Al though tliu llight Way Is Simple. "Xo, not that way I never knew one man In a hundred to do it right," said the clerk in the umbrella store. Ilis remarks were directed at a cus tomer who had proceeded to roll up a recently purchased umbrella to return it to its ease, says the New York Sun. lie had done what ninety-nino pel cent, of persons who handle umbrellas do when they attempt to gather the folds of eloth in a neat roll around the stick. He had grasped the handle with his right hand and was twisting the silk through with his left bund. "That will spoil that umbrella when you have repented the operntion half a dozen times," 1 ho clerk continued, "and then you will lie coming here and com plaining that that six dollar umbrella wasn't worth II fly cents. "Now, see what you were doing! Yon were making a pretty roll, but did you notice Unit you were twisting the ribs and braces in a spiral around that stick as well as the eloth? You may have noticed that your umbrella sticks and catches when you try to raise it "That's because you don't know how to roll it. You twist the joints of the ribs and braces all out. of shape. There, yon see, yon have twisted the ends of those ribs all around in a bunch on one side of the handle. Now, let me show you how an umbrella should be rolled." The clerk took the maltreated article, shook out the folds of silk and worked the spiral out of the ribs and proceeded 1o demonstrate thu proper methods of umbrella rolling. Grasping the bundle in his right hand, he encircled the silk at the tip with his left, which he slipped down about half-wayof theeloth, press lug I'.ie ribs mid braces lirmly against the stick. The rigid lian.l was then shifted to the tips of the ribs, which were held ' lirmly ngaim.t the slick, while the left hand niljusw I 1.1 roll of cloth, around them.

"It is remarkable what little incl lenls will change the course of a man's life," said the v.-teran huvter.

"Now, If it had nt,t been tor a little mistake I should probably a&re been a country storekeeper 1b atoad of a lawyer." "How was that?" inquired the listen- IT. "Well, when I was a young fellow," oid the lawyer, "my father placed me with Andrew Provottt, an old French merchant, at Frenchtown, N. J., to learn the business. IYovost kept a lit tle of everything in the store, which was In charge of John Jones, who now keeps a store of his own somewhere in Jersey. I hadn't been there long when one day an old farmer came in with a half-gallon jug after giu. lones Bent me down the cellar with the old farmei to draw it. As I was not familiar with the numerous barrels in the cellar and didn't know much about gin, I conclud ed to let the farmer try a drink from the different barrels until he struck the right one. This pleased him. lie took the tumbler and turned the spigot of the first barrel. 'Struck it first time,' said lie, as he straightened up and drank. Then he thicw himself down on the cellar floor and veiled like a fiend. He had struck the turpentine barrel. They took liiiu over to the doc tor's to have him pintp-d out, while I, thinking the farmer was a dead man sure, ran up to the Provost mansion and hid in my room. I lay low all night till four o'clock in the morning, when I Bkipped out and drove to the turnpike, where I knew the stage was coming along at that early hour. I got to Philadelphia by easy stages and soon afterward found out that the farmei who drank the turpentine, was still alive. I entered Theodore Cuyler's Of fice and studied law. If it had not been for that turpentine I might have been a Jerseyman yet." WOMEN ON DUTCH RAILWAYS. Long Hours and Small Pay ror Uolna Comparatively Light Work. The British consul at The Hague says that, as regards the employment of women and children on railways, it is stated that the lat tor are mostly made use of at the several railway works, their parents being glad of the one or two florins they are able to earn for comparatively light work. They art occasionally put to similar work on the permanent way, being paid at the rate of 75 or 80 cents. The women are chiefly employed in cleaning the car riages, working on an average eight hours a day on the state railway, with light work on alternate Sundays, and getting 14 florins 25 cents wages pel fortnight; on the Holland railway ten hours a day without Sunday work, with a daily wage of 1 florin 30 cents, or else watching the lines, turn about with their husbands, the "wegwach- ters" or cantonuiers On the state railway their work averages twelve hours (the men taking the night duty) and they are paid at the rate of 25 cents a day, being lodged besides; the husbands earning 90 cents a day. On the Holland railway the average hours of work are about the same, the woman receiving pay at the rate of 55 cents a day, 1 florin 65 cents a week being, however, deducted for the lodging al lowed them. For women with families the work is considered trying, especially when they are kept on duty as long as sixteen hours, as is the case at certain points, where the traffic happens to be very heavy. As regards the general condi tions under which the persons in the employ of the great Dutch railway companies carry on their work, the tes timony of the numerous witnesses ex amined by the commission, with a few exceptions, went to show that they are well satisfied both as to the wages they receive and as to the treatment awarded them. One witness was of the opinion that the wages of railway servants compared favorably with those of most factory hands. DAVY CROCKETT'S GUN. It Was Old-Fashloned, Hot the Man Be hind It Was Up to Date. "I once baw Davy Crockett clean up a crowd of crack shots," said Judge Asa Musgrove, ono of the early "pathfind ers," to a New York Journal reporter who found him en route to his home in northern Indiana. "It was in 18114, shortly before the outbreak of the war between Texas and Mexico. I was in Santa Fe, N. M. A party of a dozen or more were shooting at a target with rides, when a stranger rode up, threw his leg across the pom mel of his saddle and watched the sport. He had a long rifle strapped across the back of his saddle, one of those old fashioned affairs heavily ornamented with silver. lie was inclined to criticise the shooting, and was invited to set the pace. He replied that he never throwed away any ammunition, but that if they w vuld put up their crack shot he would shoot with him for ten Mexican dollars. "The crowd agreed and the stranger unslung his 'gingerbread gun,' as his opponent dubbed it. 'Perhaps y'd like t' raise the bet?' said the stranger, as he ambled up to the crowd. It was doubled, then trebled. He then offered to bet his gun against that of his oppo nent. The wager was accepted, and the stranger brought his rille to his shoul der. "The muzzle 'wobbled' badly, and some one cried out that he was going to shoot a circle around the target. The stranger lowered his gun and offered to wager his horse against forty Mexican dollars on the result. His proposition was promptly accepted and he once more brought his 'gingerbread gun' to his shoulder. But it did not 'wobble' this time. He put n bullet in the exact center of the target, then shot two more through the same hole, winning easily. As he rode off with the spoils some one cried out, asking his name. 'Davy Crockett,' came the reply, and the party adjourned to tho nearest saloon with out another word." How Different Animals Eat.

MOKE UP HIS OWN FUNERAL. A TeUow Fever Incident la a Utile Towo In Teas. 'I had the pleasure of reading my own obituary notice," said a western man to a New Yrk Tribuue reporter the other day. "I was so sick tnat it was thought I would surely die one tuight, and the doctors ;-uve up all hop! of ma a little after tnidim;ht. T he re porters who came up to see how 1 was made up their minds that I would be dead about the time their papers went to press. They did not say Mr. II. died early this morning, but they said the doctors had given up all hope at mid night, and they penned a fifty-line sketch of my important career, never thinking that 1 would !e in position to point out a few trilling errors in it. r ou will never know, though, how queer it see ras to read what people say of you iter you are dead till you've tri-.l it." "I suppose not," replied a southerner, "but I had a curious experience with death myself in Texas some years ago. Yellow fever had got into our town, and was playing havoc with us almost before we realized it. As usual a panic set in, and almost all those who were able to aiove away without sacri ficing everything they had I'id so. I de cided to stay, and we set to work to rig up a temporary hospital for the victims. Before long yellow fuck struck me, too, and I lay in a cot in the hospital 1 had helped to build. I was pretty bad. but not too bad to feel worse when a rough coffin was brought in and put under my cot to be handy for me. We lost no time in burying the dead, that was dangerous. "Pretty soon I became unconscious I learned this afterwards and being taken for dead was rolled into my handy coffin and put into the hearse. The driver was a negro who had been con demned to be hanged and was taken out of jail and put at the job of burying the dead under promise of pardon if he survived. There were no mourners to follow the body to the grave. The mourners were busy trying their best to keep out of the graveyard. "The jolting brought me back to consciousness, and your feelings at reading your own obituary were noth ing, I take it, to mine when I realized that I was going to my own funeral. The coffin had been made in such a hur ry of rough boards that the cracks were wide enough for me to see through, and one nail at the foot and another at the head were all that held the lid down. A couple of kicks sent the lid up and I got out of my coffin without much trouble, the excitement of the occasion lending me strength. Another kick threw the doors of the hearse open, and I stuck out my head and yelled to the driver to stop. "With a yell of terror and horror tho negro leaped from the hearse and start ed to run away. The mule that was pulling us stopped gladly enough, and I got out as best I could and started after the driver. We were a long way out of town, and I felt my strength giving out. When the negro saw me following him he fell to his knees, paralyzed with fear, and began to pray to God, the devil and my ghost for mercy. I soon reassured him that I was real flesh and blood, and persuaded him to drive me back to town. The coffin we took out of the hearse and put it up on top, as I might want it yet, I argued, and I lay down inside with the negro's coat for a pillow, and we drove slowly baek to the hospital in that style. "You may imagine the stir we created there, but it was only one little incident of the plague and it was soon forgot ten. I recovered after awhile, but I shall never forget my sensations when I woke up to find myself nailed in a coffin." . QUEER VOTING. Original Methods or Voting Employed by the Uninitiated. In many of the provinces of aid Japan it was the custom to elect the chiefs of the village by ballot. Certain of the large landholders were privileged to choose, and when positions became va cant they assembled on a certain day and handed in their votes, written on a paper and placed in a sealed envelope. "But if the ballot of those days was something like our own," says a writer in Scribner's Magazine, "the times are changed, and the new ideas are none the less strange to old heads. "Even at the election of last year, we saw one good old soul for whom the ballet seemed to have many mysteries. After a series of interviews with vari ous election officials in which the mu tual politeness was at once painful and delightful to behold he was finally guided to the ballot box, and there, in spired by what associations it is impos sible to tell, he carefully reached under the table on which the box stood, and dropped his ballot on the floor. The unbroken soberness with which both he and the officials regarded his blunder was characteristically Japanese. "The incident need not be taken, however, as indicating any peculiarly Japanese rusticity; a year or two ago, in a New England town well known as a seat of learning, an election was held, at which many women voted for the first time. One lady, painfully conscious of the newness of her privilege, ap proached the ballot box and proceeded to insert her ballot with its face upward and open to the sight, contrary to the law of the state. But the vigilant official prevented her, and said, firmly: " 'Face down, madam, face down;' whereupon the inexperienced elector, in simplicity, bowed her head reverent ly, and continued to fumble blindly at the box with the ballot still facing up ward." $50 A YEAR FOR LIFE Substantial Rewards for Those Whose Answers are Correct A man once itml t condemned criminal. prison wher. was eonflnac' On makius . nation to b xmductt-d inlo Ul Drejenc. of the doomi mdm man, tat 'i,itor va. itifonotHl that none but ralaliva, wer. permit led to ae. tha prieonar.

The committee nat urally respected this sentiment of the president-elect and so Mr. CLn-elaiid took the oath on his mother's i;iblc It was a small book, morocco bound and ?ilt-edged. So far as is known here, Mr. Cleveland still has the book, and in the belief that it will be used at the coming ceremony the clerk of the su preme court has not purchased a Bible to be used on that occasion. It was planned four years ago to use the Bible purchased in 1885 at tho ceremony Df 18S9; but after considering the mat ter the clerk determined to purchase mother Bible for Mr. Harrison.
