How n fhiaadeipssianN VIII Help New

a large excursion barge lying in the Erie

cites boatmcn's curiosity. The decks are
being cut away and what is left of the up

is to give Il variety show Of the common
sort during the hot months, when the city
theatres are uncomfortable. The ch: re-
lance OF the floating theatre for prof. will
he in a safe evasion OF the Sunday iaw.
Performances are to be given every eve
ming. but it is calculated that on Sundays.
when the law forbids the opening of shows
in the city. an especially remuneratiye bnsi-
ness will be done. The barge will take in
its Sunday audiences from some convent
ent wharf. and be towed beyond the city
limits before the performances are begun,
so that the law would not be intringed
within the jurisdiction of the city authori-
ties. As no landings would be made dur
ing the trips. it is not regarded as likely
that the officials along shore would take
any action. and the route could be changed
at will. A bar and eating room is to be a
feature.

Evils Among Young Men.

OF all the evils prevalent among young
men, we know OF none more blighting in
its moral effects than to speak lightly of
the virtues Of a woman. Nor is there any
thing in which young men are so thor
oughly mistaken ss the low estimate they
iorn as to the integrity Of woman. Not
of their own mothers and sisters, bnt of
others who, they forget, are somebody
else's mothers and sisters. As a rule, no
person who surrenders to this dehasing
habit is to he trusted with any enterprise
requiring integrity Of character. Plain
words should be spoken on this subject,
tor the evil is a general one and ,leer root
ed. Ii young men are sometime. thrown
into the society OF thonghtless and de-
prsved women. they have no more right to
measure all other women by what they see
OF these, than they have to estimate the
character Of honest and respectable citi-
Zens by the developments of crime in our
police courts. Let our young men remem-

Washingt N Letter to Philadelphia Times.
Senator Jones, of Nevada, having re-
plenished his depleted exclequer by for
tunate rise in Sierra Nevada stock. comes
back with his beautiful young wife and
maiden sister to occupy his half of the
Butler block on Cspitol hill. lie left here
i've months ago for his home at Gold Hill
dead broke, " in vulgar parlance. or ''bust-
ed" as the miners term it. Foreseeing the
rise in mining stocks, he Invested all he
could raise or borrow in Sierra Nevada,
and reaped rich return. Still, he had not
enough to I'LL the measure of his oppor-
tuni,y. His wife had a splendid diamond
necklace, for which he paid in opulent
days the sum OF $4,000. and which she,
being retiring little body, not given to
display, had never worn but once.
"My DEAR said he to her one day. ''if
you will let me invest your diamonds in
Sierra Nevada you shall have the proceeds
for pin money
LAS you please said the dutiful little
woman. .'You know never wear them" {"
Senator Jones is not the man to go
hawking his wife's jewels about tine streets,
so he offered them to the first jew he met.
and realized $4,000 for them, which he
invested on margin in her name. and to-
day she is worth $4,000 in registered
bonds. He paid his debts, cancelled the
mortgage on his 100000 worth of fi,rni-
ture, which Butler held as collateral for
three years rent, and in less than half
year returns with several millions to spare.
And that is the way they do things ''out
west" The Jones family will give several
grand entertainments during the winter

The time has passed when woman
must be pale. delicate, to be interesting
when she must be totally ignorant Of all
practical knowledge to be called high-bred
when she must know nothing of the cur
rent political news of the day, or be called
masculine and strOng-minded. 1t is not 3
sign of high birth or refinement to be
sickly and ignorant. Those who affecs
anything of the kind are behind the times.
and must shake and air themselves, mer,-
tally, physically, or drop under the firm
strides OF cOmDiOnsense ideas, and be
crushed into utter insignificance. In these
days an active, rosy-faced girl, with brain
quick and clear, warm, light heart, tenn
per quickly heated at intended insult or in
jury. and just as quick to forgive; whose
feet can run as fast as her tongue. and not
put her out of breath; who is not afraid Of
freckles, or to breathe the pure air Of
heaven, unrestrained by the drawn curtains
Of close carriage. and, above all, who can
speak her mind and give her opinion on
important topics which interest intelligent
peoples the true girl who will make .
good woman. Even fops and dandies.
who strongly oppose woman's rights, like
a woman who can talk well, even if she's
not handsome.-St. Louis Republican.

The De0eOn's MiAtake.

A good deacon In Davenport, Iowa, saw
a drunken man whom he knew driving
aimlessly about the steets one dark night.
The deacon kindly got into his sleigh and
took the reins. intending to take the drunk
ard to his hOnse. which was two miles
away; bat thsliNng the idea of walking
back, he stopped at tavern to find some
body who could more conveniently do the
job. While he was in the tavern, tho
drunkard drove eff by himself, and
young fellow arrived with his girl in u
sleigh. The young fellow entered the tav-
ern, leaving his girl, mutfied in a blanket
to wait while he got drink. The deacon
found 4 volunteer to take his place as guide
to the drunkard; hut the volunteer, ON 60
ing to the sleigh that stood in front Of the
tavern, discovered that the occupant was
not the dr,,nkartl' and said to the deacon.
"It's girl out there" 'No, 'taint," re-
Piled the deacon. who thought she WAS
the drunkartl. He put one arm around
her, and roughly pulled away the blanket.
She screamed for help. Her lover ran out
and gave the deacon a severe W tipping.
Then they took tile good deacon INTO the
tavern. washed the blood from his ace,
the girl kissed him, and all was forgiven.
