The Newsboy's Mistake.

A NEwspoY leaned against a lamp
post, shivering. The stump of cigar
smoldercd in his mouth, and bundle
of afternoon papers hung over his arm.
His flat stomach was bursting with
emptiness. His prototype can be found
on any corner, or lodging behind al
most any ash-barrel. He was DELHI
Grating over the Chances of q gallery
seat in the Bowery, when a kindly old
gentleman approached and bought q
paper. The kindly old gentleman had
nothing smaller than five-cent piece;
and when lie handed over the cash, the
newsboy, instead of lodging. around
the corner, deliberately offered him the
change. This act of honesty touched
the old gentleman's heart, and, with
fearful eyes, he refused to take the
change, and told the newsboy to call
upon him next day. Overlooking the
fact that the kindly old gentleman's of
flee was something more than two
miles down Broadway, the newsboy
called next day, and was duly present
ed with eight dollars ''for his honesty"
The question of theater-tickets, cigars,
cakes and knicknacks on the one side,
and good warm coat on the other
side, was decided in favor of the coat,
and in lightning-express time the eight
dollars was transformed into stylish
ulster. Again the newsboy leaned
against the lamp-post, but again no
plcthoric philanthropist came to his
rescue. A newsboy in an ulster was
"too thin" His business was ruined.
The principal facts in this brief biog-
raphy were furnished to the Times by
the newsboy himself, and they are thus
beyond contradiction; and the story is
n warning to all Woodworking news
boys not to be deluded into stylish
listers by generous old capitalists, to
the ruination of their business.-M T.

an ordinary observer, and even or close
one, the ear Of an alligator would not
be discovered. By taking . knife and
experimenting . little, the flesh will
be found to lit up on the point Of the
knife at the place above mentioned,
and one can see the ear, quite capa-
cious, Of q beautiful pearly color, with
9 transparent membrane, very tough,
stretched over large tunnel leading
directly to TIE brain. Their sense q
hearing is very acute. Alligators can
be made to rise from q rivers bottom
by slight noises, like the squeaking Of
pig or a low whistle. The creatures
seem to have no little curiosity, and
take considerable risks to satisfy it,
though they are not conscious Of the
dangers they court.
The alligator's mouth opens quite
the whole length Of his head; both
jaws move; bony arrangement at the
sides of the mouth limits the extent to
which it can be opened. When opened,
there is much inside to excite cu-
riosity. In the first place, the tongue
is mainly adhesive to the lower part Of
the mouth; the back part Of the
tongue has very marked and curious
semi-circular ridge, very well defined,
that serves, with slight muscular
contraction, to completely close the en-
trance to the gullet. An alligator can
rush around in the water with his
mouth wide open and not swallow q
drop. The teeth are Of different sizes,
large and small at intervals, those Of
the upper jaw shutting outside the un-
der, and those below fitting in cavities
above; the large, lower, forward teeth
in very old alligators perforate the
bones of the upper jaw on each side of
the nostrils, making holes that one can
push a finger through. The mouth Of
an alligator IS singularly clean, Of .
pearly pink color, and the teeth, when
they are new, are very beautiful, and
have also pinkish cast.
The average alligator is longer from
the tip of his tail to q point on his
back between the juncture of the
hind legs than he is from that point
forward to his nose. His tail is his
great engine of locomotion, and his
main reliance in offensive and defen-
sive war. 1 was told by one, long ia
miliar with his habits, that, with f1irt
of his tail, he struck his prey toward
his mouth, which opens at the time
and closes with snap on whatever is
thrown into it. My informant went so
far as to say that the alligator some
times in this way bit off the end of his
own tail. Many are found with part
of the tail gone; these may be lost in
mutual fights, or perhaps by the nip of
shark, yetfrom what I have seen of
the lightnipg-like lateral blows given
by these reptiles with the tail, I am
prepared to believe the story of their
self-maiming.-Cor. Boston CONNER

An Ancient Duel In France.

The recent grotesque duel between
Gambetta and Fourtou has brought to
mind other queer duels fought by
Frenchmen, some of which are re-
hearsed in the Paris journals. One of
the queerest was fought in 1890, be
tween Cazales and Barnave. In the
Assembly the former, in an eloquent
speech, called the Left brigands.''
The latter replied that he could take no
notice of a collective insult, but if it
were personally applied he would feel
bound to notice it. OF course Cazales
gratitied Barnave; but the matter was
arranged by common friends. The
next morning, however, Cazales called
with Saint Simon upon Barnaye, say
ing: Il am very sorry, bnt the ladies
are unwilling we should be at peace.''
II had expected as much,' was the
laconic reply. when, where and md
hov?' AT the Bots, in an hour, with
pistols" Cazales insisted that his an
tagonist should fire first. Barnave re-
fused, because the provocation men,
toned by Cazales had not been inten.
tional. They threw dice, at which
Cazales said he had no luck. Barnaye
won, fired at thirteen PAGES, and missed.
Twice Cazalcs' pistol missed fire.
" Pardon ME for keeping you waiting"
he said, and his adversary reioined.
!" I am here to watt When he had
missed his man the third time, his Sec
pnd, Charles de Lambeth, wanted the
affair stopped, but Saint Simon was nm
willing. Meanwhile the combatants
were walking about arm in-arm, talk
ing pleasantly together. ST should be
very sorry to kill you," remarked
Cazales; :" but you are greatly in my
way in the Assembly. Let me disable
you from debating for the present. !"
/" You are more generous than I am"
responded BarnaVe, .. in wishing to let
me off easily. You are the main sup
port OF your party; my party would
hardly feel my loss. Again Barnave
won the toss, and his adversary fell,
shot in the forehead, with the words,
!" This is what I came here for.,'' His
cocked-hat had, however, broken the
force Of the bullet; the surgeon soon
pronounced the wound not serious,
which Cazales corrob orated, adding:
:: And 10, the ass opened his mouth and
spake.' = He went home In Lambeth's
carriage, profered Is more comfortable
than Saint Simon's, and in = few weeks
the combatants dined together, and
spoke Of their duel as 8 delightful little
recreation. IN. 7. Times.

TEXTBOOKS AND AGENTS

We learn through Mr.. Hosea Barns
that the agent to whom we referred
last week is employed by him for a
short time, as sickness in his family
prevents him from canyassing the
county himself. Mr.. Barns represents
the firm Of Van Antwerp, Bragg s. Co.,
Of Cincinnati, "a reliable firm and one
which publishes good books. Our
reason for speaking of the matter was
this: A year ago last fall, man went
through the county and succeeded in
palming off some books which are not
worth the paper upon which they are
printed; in fact they were positive in
jury to the schools into which thew
were introduced. Fearing that some
thing OF the same kind was being again
attempted, we thought it our duty to
speak as we did.
In justice to Mr.. Barns and the firm
which he represents, we gladly make
this correction.

WRITING MATERIALS.


1t is very desirable that pupils be
supplied with the best writing mate
rails. especially pens, imk and paper
~ copy books. Ink should be black
when applied to the paper, Acid inks
Ind writing fluids are net adapted to
school use. Gillot's pens are the best
f0r general use. Each pupil should be
supplied with practice paper, or al ex-
orcis9 book, besides the copy book;
also with a piece Of blotting paper.
This can generally he obtained at the
torres: the insurance companies gen.
rally distributing an abundance Of
bl0tters. For pen-wiper a piece o.
ordinary brown paper will answer.
CLASSIFICATION.
A proper classification will save
much time to the teacher. All the
pupils OF an udgraded school may be
placed in two divisions or classes. In
order to make this separation for the
BEST interests Of the whole school, re-
quire each pupil who can write, to
write his name and residence on a
Slip of paper as an evidence of pen
manship.
