"You see," said the chaperon of a -piartette of lively girls at Long Branch, says the Chicago Inter Ocean, there are now three kinds of court- g the antique, he progressive and ue ephemeral. Odd, isn t it, where ihe heart is concerned?- Both the an- ique and - the ephemeral kind art i'ound among the old girls and boys and ihe debutantes, while the progressive sort is confined mostly to those win. liave been m society a half dozen sea sons or less. "The antique is the kind which has Cor its password one life, one love. The ephemeral lends to the fancy of the hour without further reflection. The progressive is one with which we have to deal in answering the query: 'Where arc the old favorities, and why are the younger set so popular?' It is most natural that the matured bachelor and the rosebud should enjoy ieh others society. Tins is epheme ral, no responsibility, no care; but the rosebud has a decided advantage over !ier courtly gallant; for, while she is becoming skillful in the use of Cupid's weapons, he is losing time and ground ani some day will awaken to the truth that he is growing old, bald and ridic ulous. "What does the young girl see in her old escort? Mostly attention. which is very flattering to her in her first season out. And the bachelor what does he see in her? lie is lonely. The women of his set have disappeared somewhere, and ho is willing to buy candy, kiss lap (logs, do anything to be entertained and entertaining. In this capacity the bachelor is a most useful member of society. lie has even been known to walk around with grandmamma and to carry the mar ried sister's baby and luggage to the train. "Progressive courtship is curious. When a young woman begins to enter tain serious thoughts of her future, I- ! . ' . wneuier in cnoosing a prolossion, a business or a husband, she rises above driftwood and marks a tree that will shelter her. Her time, also, is a con sideration. She cannot waste years dallying with an old beau, a perennial. these perennials are many of them good souls, nice for escorts, but not up to date enough for ideal husbands. So the marriageable women, those who can preside with dignity over neat homes the belles, in short, of past seasons leave the ranks and form new ties. When a young woman becomes in different ' to parties, likes distant friends, protracted visits and can't be loeuted, keep a sharp lookout among the marriage notices. The out-of-town men secure most of the home prizes. The only chance for homo bachelors la to emulate the example of the girl that is, to go out of town, too, where they are not known as everlastings. "Suppose, however, that they call' not give up the old favorites suppose that there is a great tugging at the heart when they think of losing them In such cases, if the men value their happiness and wish to wager on their chances, they must become socialists in love aud ply their skill lucre a iingly a me summer reason apprcacheH.

By the public money of the United States we mean that which is not in circulation, and is therefore not a part of individual possessions, but is held by the government itself for the pur poses of the nation. This fund is a fluctuating quantity. It amounted, nominally, ut the last report of the sec retary of the tretisury, to about $G0O,- 000,000; but only a comparatively small proportion of it was really disposable money, in the strict sense of the term, for any public purpose. : The government carries on all its op erations, involving the actual use of money, through three channels first, the treasury of the United States at Washington, which is under the charge of the custodian called the treasurer, not the secretary of the treasury ; sec ond, through nine subtreasury oflices, in aa many leading cities of the coun try, which are brandies of the treasury tit Washington, and are in charge of ofli eers called subtreasurers; and third, through a large number of national banks called depositary banks, which hold government money subject to the draft of the treasurer. The greater port of the vast amounts of money held by the treasurer and sub treasurers at any given moment is gold or silver, kept there for the purpose of redeeming or securing the paper notes issued by the government. Hut there are at nil times large sums of money in -o'tn or in legal-tender paper, which may be said to be merely passing through the government's hands. There are many millions coming in as receipts from cus toms and taxea, and many millions more being paid out for expenses; for the yearly expenses of the government of the United States approach very nearly half n billion dollars, aud at present ex ceed the receipts. To fucilitnte these passing transac' tions, the government has for ninny 4ars kept a constantly-varying amount of ready money in the bands of the de- iiositary nntional banks. For the Inst ten years the amount of public money held by these banks has averaged about 133,000,000; though at one date It rose to about $5,000,000, and at another fell to $10,000,000. With respect to this money, the gov' eminent is in a much better position, na to security, than other depositors in he bank. For although it receives no utcrest on Its money, it holds a certain amount of its own bonds, owned by the ank, ss security for the deposits. A recent general return of the national banks showed that there were more than $28,ooo,niio, pur value, of govern ment bonds held by the treusury as se' curity for such lexnit. There were, ot the latest date, 1SS of lio (lenHitnry banks, out of about .I.koo natioiuil bnnks in the country. I'lielr custody of large sums of govern' nieut money is to them, of course, source of profit; end slthougli the tie- Knitsof the government nn-Httill tunes Mibjcrt to the treasurer's ilruft. It Is well known that the government could not, in practice, withdraw these Urios- Its without causing panic or at least rrratlng a stringency lu the money mar ket. Vsrlous projects have lieen put for ward to enabl the govern nic nt U reap the benefit which go to the banks with these funds; but no scheme of the kind has Wen adopted by ningnna riiere is no law which riiublcs the gov ernment to collect interest on IU funds which may Im In privnte hand. It is very seldom Indeed that no much ns a dollar of public money I I net. All officers through Vilioae lunula It tie give bonds fur a greater itiitnunt limn the sum that they hold, nnd if they prove dlshonet, which Is tcry tsn-ly the caw, thrlr Imndhmen are held.

Tho sh n3l v.'os ffiven him and away hesturtjl. Uo dime back sometime after ati.l :;jU ho ha.l buried the car cass som'j .vlx f 2t ivj .ler the ground. It was cojsllersJ strangtf at the time, as no ov:c hero ever thinks of burying an animal. Tho dry air desicates the body as cotnplotjly as if it had been subjaatoJ to tho heat of an oven. He huntr about t'.w.ceetija house for a few hours an. I thou bft f ir Burmid, where he mcntione.I his loss. There he staved. refusinif r.U olTirs of food, but picking up his Ruboistenee from such food as he could find about tho place dry bits of bread, which even a coyote would have scorned, he ate greedily. Then he rushed for a shovel and announced his intention to dig up hia donkey, as he had found n sovereign remedy against death. The shovel was (riven him. and. mougi? tno boast had been interred three or four days, the crazy man dis interred tnc remains. lie came, back. saying that the donkey refused to get up ana live, 'ihe section men sent word that they had an insane man on their hands and feared he would die, as he refused food. Tha conductor of a freight train was ordered to take him into Yuma, and essayed the task, The wretched man would run like a deer from his captors, offering violence to anyone who came near him. Finally one man more astute than the rest said: "Look here, the superintendent wants to see you in Los Angeles and pay you lor the donkey you lost." II that is whatyou want me for I'll come," he answered, "and if you prora- 1K-5 not to tie me up 1 11 be quiet." Ho was taken into Yuma, but all ef forts to discover his identity proved un availing. A short time previously another man came into lhirmid raving mad. His tongue was black, his eyes rolled and glittered and he was in the direst extremity. Water and food ju diciously aamlnistered saved his life. Though his new found friends begged him not to follow tho fascinations of gold hunting he refused to listen to reason, scorned the kindness of section men, upbraided them for being slaves and working for wages, and continued his hopeless quest of illusive gold fields. mm i mxmm t I.Mogb trains lb 0.

"One of my most exciting adven tures," said Mr. Strakosh to a Washing' ton Post reporter, "was an Incident which happened when I was managing the (South American tour of Mme ,8arah Bernhardt. We were on the British steamer Cotopaxi and a good stout vessel she was but somehow or other, as we were panning through the Straits of Magellan we ran Into a sand bank. The steamer drew eighteen feet nf water, and had, unfortunately, en tcred the straits at low water. Every one believed that we were shipwrecked, that our engagement at Chili would never be lumilcd. and that we were doomed to stay where wa were for three weeks fur you must know that It is only usual for the steamers of this line to pass there every three weeks. Surah was distracted. Hlie tore her hair, she beat her breast in her Inlmit, able manner, and she used the well, elaasioal language for which she is noted. There we were and there wsa no prospect of relief. This was about nine o'clock In tha morning. Tha scene can better he imagined titan dcucrllw'l. The ladles were In tears and frightened out of their boots, and even the men of the company leu uncomfortable.

VARIATIONS IN LITERATURE. Present Day Literary Imitations of Musics Compositions Common Years Ago. Some twenty-five years ago there was ' a style of musioal composition much in vogue known as "variations," savs a ' writer in the Atlantic Monthly. It ap-' peared in dozen page sheets entitled Home, Sweet Home with varUMons;" "Coming Through the Rye with vaca tions;" "Let Me Kiss' Him for Ills Mother" (also with variations). The distinctive plan of these compositions anil, whatever their individual char acteristic, they were, as a whole, with out variation consisted, first, in a brace or two of banging prelude, close ly followed by a simple little air that : somebody else had written. Thia definitely announced the theme to b "variated," which was next heard be- -hind a thin screen of artfully arranged arpeggios. Thou it donned a deep dis guise in the bass, to become barely recognizable in the treble with trills, ditto in bass, in the treble with runs. ditto in bass, and finally lost itself in a company of crashing chords so over powering that one could not be oertain whether the original air had beer. "Coming Through the Rye" or "Let Me Kiss Him for His Mother." A similar sort of treatment has now invaded the art of letters; that is to say, it has affected the entire twenty- six, as well as the select seven to be found upon the piano keyboard. It doesn't nowadays satisfy a' writer to say, merely: "One summer morning, fine and early, I was walking through the woculs." He Immediately goes on (taking the word "early" as his key note): "The sun had not been long above the horizon ami the air was yet iragrant wltft last night s dew." Then, with "fine" and "summer" as texts, he tells us: "Everywhere were the green aud luxuriant footprints of light-stepping summer." Starting next from (1) "I," Vi) "walking" umi (8) "woods." ho informs us: "As my feet pressed the soft moss faint forest odors filled the air, the crackle ot a dry stick waa heard and a startled gray squirrel scampered up the giant oak on my left." Da ctipo: "On suh a glorious morning 1 was glad simply to he alive, as were we all young-risen sun, trees, flowers, inoKsatid little grsy squirrel." Ami so, diluting and further diluting an idea, it is hunt to tell just what degree of strength It may originally have posfcesHcd. The slremrth of the writer, it is, however, more easy to de termine.
