An Ingenious Device.

A capillary correspondence was recently at
tempted between notorious Partisan thief in
durance vile and his comrades outside. The
prisoner was sent a letter from his .dancee,
containing merely lock of hair wrapped in
the leaf Of book. The jailor did not con-
slider the souvenir important enough to be
delivered, but in few days came similar en-
closure, and yet another. This aroused sus-
picion, and the governor took the matter in
hand. He examined the leaf of the book; it
was that of common novel, twenty-six lines
on page Then he studied the hair, and
noticed the small quantity of the gift. Count
ing the hairs he found them of unequal
length, and twenty-six in number, the same
as the lines of the page. Struck with the
coincidence, he laid the hairs along the line
of the page which they respectively reached,
beginning at the top with the smallest hair.
After some trouble be found that the end of
each hair pointed to 3 different letter, and
that these letters combined formed slang
sentence, which informed the prisoner that
his friends were ON the watch, and the next
time he LETT the prison, to be examined, an
attempt would be made to rescue him. The
governor laid his plans accordingly; the at
tempt was made, but the rescuers fell into
their own trap. ...--., . .. +

Phiadelphia to secure the Southern trade;
we hear of the enterprise of Baltimore, Win
her system of railroads and her proposals to
Atlantic steam lines and endeavOrS even 10
compete with New York city for Western
trade. We are not unmindful of the enter
prise of the Chicago merchant. st. Louis
rivals Chicago, and Omaha is ambitious to
rival St. Louis. We read of their public
meetings, the resolutions Of their Chambers
of Commerce; we have received delegates
from several Western cities, coming here 10
spy out our land and set its milk and money
flowing their way. But we never hear OF
San Francisco Board Of Commerce dong
ANYTHING in the direction Of encouraging trade
or drawing it to this city; with one or two
exceptions we have no men among Us who
should be disnitied with the name Of mer-
chants With splendid forests of timber
available, we build very few ships in the
vcinagc of India, China and Japan: our trade
with these countries is but limited, and to the
uncxplorcd islands of the Pacific we have
scarce sent venture except for pirate treas
ure supposed to be buried upon Cocos island.
We venture our money in mines and in stocks
and in real estate, but we trust rs we grow
older we shall find developing among us busi-
ness men of wider grasp-mcrchants of a
more comprehensive libcrality-wealthy men
who build ships and railroads and look to the
future for the rewards of their enterprise.
This northeastern trade with Idaho and
Montana, and the southeastern trade with
Arizona and Southern Nevada, is worth every
exertion to secure. We say to the people Of
Lewis and Clarke county. and to the delegates
assembled in Territorial Convention, that we
desire this connection: we arc in earnest
about it; our intentions are honorable, and
our purpose marriage; and we beg OF you
ern people Be patient and above all things
be prudent; only wait little longer, and we
shall be prancing through your canyons, gal
Looping across your valleys and over your hills
upon our iron horse. We are two-thirds of
the way there already; and in the meantime,
if you can come down little way upon q
narrow-gauge we will not regard you as too
forward or charge you with lack of modesty.

NOT E0Sily Discouraged.

Conductors of trains on the Central and
Union Pacific trains are often annoyed by the
presence in the cars of individuals possessed
neither Of tickets nor money, and who have
to be put ashore at the earliest opportunity.
A few days since, says the Record Union, the
conductor of an eastward bound train on the
other side of the ''hilI' found that he had a
''dead-heGd'' of this class among his passen-
gers, and three different times stopped the
train and put him off, each time giving en-
phasis to the matter by the application of his
boot, but it invariably happened that the un,
desirable passenger managed to get on board
about as soon as the conductor. The third
time, the conductor remained ashore watch
ing the chap until the train had attained such
headway that he felt confident the dead-head
could not get on-in fact, he had to spring in
a lively manner to accomplish it himself-but
as socn as he got Strengthened upon his feet
he found the impecunious riding along with
the rest Somewhat discouraged, the con-
ductor turned to him and inquired, Where
in blazes are you going, any wayf" ''Well,"
said not-to-be- -got-rid-of, I'm going to Chi
cago, if my pants hold out, but If I'm going
to be kicked every FIVE minutes | don't be-
lieve I'll make the trip" The conductor let
him ride little ways.

IT is thought that the subscriptions for the
Agassiz Museum at Harvard will soon reach
the desired amount of $3.50, 600, thus making
it possible to draw the $50,0OO appropriated
by Massachusetts. With this $3.50, 600 new
halls are to be built, new facilities for instruc-
ton are to be provided, and the classification
and arrangement Of the museum is to be car
ried forward much further than it was at
Agassiz' death. Eventually all the branches
of natural history are to have their museums
and lecture-rooms on the square near Divinity
Hall, where the museum stands, and the Pea
body Ethnological Museum is to be built in
the same locality.

The executors of the John Hopkins estate
have Just handed in their first account to the
Orphans Court of Baltimore county. The
total value of the estate, as appraised, is
about s., $50, 900. Of this, the John Hopkins
University has received So, $50, 600, the John
Hopkins Hospital upwards of $3,076, 900:
and the relatives and other devisees and
legatees the balance, except $102, 1922 yet
to be divided between the hospital and the
university. The executors have, in compli-
ance with the will, renounced the 1927, 900
of commissions fixed by law, and allowed
them to the Orphans Court. The total cost
of settling up the estate has been less than
three-quarters of one per cent. upon its value,
which wise economy reflects great credit upon
its executors.

The Hunny Bee.
BY JOSH BILLINGS.

The hunny bee is about 10 times the size
of the house fly never measured them
they won't stand still long cnff, but i think
have got their dimensions about right.
If have made blunder in this matter, i
am ready to repent and be forgiven for it.
don't kno as we kan blame them for this,
for if beefsteak lay hot and we'll buttered by
the roadside all the time, and the bivalves
were running around on the half shell, pep
pered and salted and crying, "Who will eat
me:" would like to see the man you could
hire to thrash out rye that was wet in the
bundle for 10 shillings day.
Hunny bees are built with sting, which is
quicker than ghost when good biziness
chance offers; but never knu one to use it
just for the deviltry of the thing.
These little workers travel about . miles a
day during the sweet season, and bring the
hunny home stuck onto their legs Ii there
is a lazy one in the hive he gets lynched at
once. Lynch law is the hunny bee justiss.
Man stole this code from the hunny bees,
just as he haz stole pretty much everything
else he haz got.
Killing oph the lazy may look a little tuff,
but. after all, there's sumthing like mercy in
it, for it is the only way known az yet to put
an end to their torments.
Hunny bees have a queen, but never q
king; this is a great kompliment to the sex,
and is an argument for ''Wimmin's Right,
which the belcavers in this docktering arc
welkum to use without giving me kredit fol
it.
The hunny bees are the only nation kno
ov who have always had queen for ruler,
and who have been more prosperous and
have existed longer than any people we kno
ov.
luy the hunny bees because they are al
ways bizzy, and have stinger always hot
and reddy for the lazy, and for those who
poke their nose into their biZZness.

A Western traveller says: owe crossed the
sand hills near the scene of the Indian mail
robbery and massacre of 1856, wherein the
driver and conductor perished, and also all
the passengers but one, it was supposed; but
this must have been a mistake, for at differ
ent times afterward, on the Pacific coast, |
was personally acquainted with 1873 or 134
persons who were wounded during that mas
sacre and barely escaped with their lives:
There was no doubt of the truth of i'll had
it from their OWL lips. One of these parties
told me that he kept coming across arrow
heads in his system for nearly seven years
after the massacre"

Men of Letters.

Tasso's conversation was neither gay nor
brilliant Dante was either taciturn or satir-
ical Butler was sullen or biting. Gray sell
dom talked or smiled. Hogarth and Smith
were very absent minded in company. Milton
was very unsociable, and even irritable when
pressed into conversation. Kirwin, though
copious and eloquent in public addresses, was
meagre and dull in colloquial discourse.
Virgil was heavy in conversation. LaFOntaine
appeared heavy, coarse and stupid; he could
not speak and describe what he had just
seen; but then he was the model of poetry.
Chaucer's silence was more agreeable than
his conversation. Dryden's conversation was
dry and dull, his humor saturnine and re-
served. Corneille, in conversation, was so
insipid that he never failed in wearying; he
did not even speak correctly that language of
which he was master. Ben johnson nsed
to sit silent in company, and suck his wines
and their humors. Southey was stiff, sedate,
and wrapped up in ascetism. Addison was
good company with his intimate friends, but
in mixed company he preserved his dignity
by stiff and reserved silence. Fox, in con-
versation, never tagged; his animation and
variety were inexhaustible. DR.. Bentley was
loquacious, so also was Grotius Goldsmith
''wrote like an angel and talked like poor
Poll" Burke was entertaining, enthusiastic
and interesting in conversation. Curran was
a convivial deity. Leigh Hunt was ''like a
pleasant stream" in conversation. Carlyle
doubts, objects, and constantly demurs.

The civil Rights BiIl-A Catholic View

From tie Roman Catholic Universe, of Cleveland
Bishop Gilmour's paper]
The Civil Rights bill has ceased to be
party measure, and has become a national
law. We cannot see therein any cause for
the lamentations which escape the conserva-
tive Republican and the entire Democratic
press. The effects Of the bill will be harm
less to the white race, and only just to the
blacks. The cry raised against it-that 1t is
a political interference with social atfal1s-
indicates that those who make the cry have
not read the provisions OF the bill. 1t prOhlb-
it's discrimination Oh account OF color IN pub
lic conveyances, hotels and theatres; that is
all. Murderers, thieves, gamblers, confidence
men, ruffians and villains of every type may
enter railroad cars, steamboats, and stages,
and nobody says them nay. They will be
entertained in the theatres and at the hotels
provided they pay tor the entertainment. No.
body thinks of excluding them SO long as
they behave themselves decen,ly. Nobody
thinks that the presence of thieves. gamblers
and Villains in public conveyances, hotels and
theatres establishes a social equality between
them and people who are not thieves, gam
blers and villains.
Color is no more to. he rcckOned among
crimes in the United States. A man Is not
virtuOus because he is white, nor vicious be-
cause he is black. 4 woman who is white is
not for that reason pure, and she whom God
made darker is not tor that reason to be treat
ed worse than the brute which the white lady
nay carry in the first-class car in her lap.
Dogs may travel in comfortable coaches
may occupy the hotels. Shall w"men-
though they be dark-bavc less considera-
tioni The white scoundrel may smoke bis
cigar on the deck of steamer, seeking VIC
tim. The black woman, though her heart be
white as an angels, though her heart be as
dear to God as that of the daintiest Cau-
casian's in the land, is brutally showed down
from the deck to the hole, to be the compan-
ion of indecent dock-rats, to be exposed to
rank insult, and to be subjected to whatever
forms of outrage and infamy the brutes,
white and black, around her may invent
As for Catholics, they cannot be divided
on such question. All men and women are
equal before God and in the church.. The
accident of color does not alter the fact OF
humanity; men are men, women are women,
I've they black, yellow, white or red. The
same obligations of virtue rest upon them
equally, They are sons of the same first
mother. children of the same God, and the
same heaven will finally contain us all.
