PITIsBuEG, which city used to be the
very paradise Of dram drinkers, has just
had an election, the result of which is
very decided vote in favor of strict
prohibition. The dense clouds of
sin which erstwhile did lower about
the darkened Pittsburgian intellect
are now about to give way to the res
plendent sunlight of total abstinence:
and the Mononahela shall henceforth
make sand bars and tow-heads where
formerly surplusage of venomous high

because Pittsburg is virtuo,,s there shall
be 10 more cakes and ale.

Robert D. Bogart, reporter OF the Chrosicte
was arrested yesterday morning by the naval au
thorities to be taken to Washington on some
charge, the precise nature Of which has not been
made public. 1t is stated that be was tried for
embezzling $50 go while he held the position
of paymasters clerk in the navy, but he es-
capped punishment. II is thought the present
arrest has some reference to that matter Bog
art was the Chronicles war correspondent in the
Nodoc country. The arrest was known to but
few persons. A body of marines took him into
custody and delivered him at Mare Island.-San
Francisco Telegram.
In the Fall of 1871. during the time
OF holding the Northwestern Far at
Minneapolis, Horace Greeley came there
and delivered an address before the Ag-
ricultural Society; and this fellow Bog
art, then travelling correspondent OF
the New York San, was there also, he
having followed in Greeleys wake with
the deliberate purpose of casting ridi-
cule upon him by means of burlesque
reports of his speeches telegraphed in
full to the San. A more shameless and
puppyish errani WAS never performed
by 4 vain and supercillious coxcomb-

him to be. We were then informed, by
one who knew about it, of this charge
of ENLIGHTENMENT; and we shared in our

THE AMERICAN FLAG IN RIO JANEIRo.

A few days later most ridiculous af-
fair happened in the harbor. An ice
ship from Boston entered the bay, COM
manded by Captain Green, in the
South America trade Fort Santa Cruz,
not recognizing his house flag, hailed
him and ordered him to "heave to. )"
But the worthy skipper didn't speak
Portuguese, and the simple statement
of the name of his vessel, which he
hurled at the fort, was not at all salts
factory so blank shot was fired as q
mild suggestion for him to stop. But
he called for his revolver, and pointing
it skyward, fred six successive shots.
Then solid shot from the fort skip.
ped across his bow, and another, better
aimed, passed through his fore sail.
The fort and two shore batteries open
ed fire upon him, and several of his
light spars were cut away. But he held
on his course rejoicing, loading and
firing his revolver. He finally reached
Quarantine, and came to anchor Just as
his flying jib boom went by the board
He was then so near the other shipping
that they dared fire on him no longer,
and the police boat, the Custom house
boat, and the health boat all boarded
him, together with the Captain of the
Pert, who, with more vigor than polite
ness, wanted to know "Why in - he
didn't heave to ~. Heave-to y eiaenlat.
ed the astounded skipper, "Was that
what you wanted Good Lord L
thought you was salutiu' the American

in chorus, and set the case down as adj
ditional evidence of the lunacy which
they regarded as necessary ingredient
of the American character.

WASTE NO TIME.

After allowing yourself proper time
for rest, don't live single hour of your
life without doing exactly what is to be
done in it, and going straight through
it from beginning to end. Work, play,
study-whatever it is, take hold at once
ard finish it up squarely and clearly
then do the next thing, without letting
any moment drop out between. 1t is
wonderful to see how many hours these
prompt people contrive to make day
it is as if they picked up the moments
that the dawdlers lost. And if ever you
find yourself where you have so many
things pressing upon you that you hard
ly know how to begin, let us tell you a
secret Take hold of the very first
one that comes to hand, and you will
find the rest all fall into file, and follow
after like company of well drilled sol
diers and though work may be hard to
meet when it charges in squad, it is
easily vanquished if you can bring it in
to line.

sNIpE ON TOAST SIXTY CENTS. +"

A sojourner in large city, who is at
the mercy of restaurants where you are
treated with big bill OF fare, and very
little food on your plate, thus hits it off;
Snipe on toast would be almost too
hearty food to feed people on who had
been floating on raft three weeks feed
ing on old bootlegs.
Saws to thu head waiter, "Give me
snipe on toast.
BY and by he came and put down
some toast, and L kept on reading about
what great donkey Grant was, and
what ridiculous set every one is who
is running for office and I sat there for
an hour. Then rang the gong. The
waiter entered, and says l, Where in
thunder is my meat %
Says he, :" They've been on the table
an hour"
Says I, 81 didn't order plain toast 1
want snipe on it. -
Says he, There is a snipe on it.
Then drew close up to the table,
and saw little black speck on the
toast.
Says I, "You'll swear that's n
snipe ?"
says ne, Les.
Says I, "You'd make good linen
buyer, you would"
Says he, cts snipe on toast, any
how"
Says I, elbow did it get on ?"
Says he, THAT snipe is all right. It's
a full-sized one, too"
Says I, "I'm glad of it. I'm glad
YOU told me that's full-sized snipe ; for
do you know, young man, when l sat
out there reading l saw black speck
on that toast, but took it for fly, and
I'm glad to be informed it's a snipe-a
full sized snipe. Now you can take
that snipe away and bring me turkey
on toast. / want full-sized turkey,
too"
I amt hankering after snipe since
that episode. could have blown that
snipe through putty blower without
hurting the snipe or the putty blower
either. Snipe on toast may be game,
but it's mean game.
