a CALCULATING BOOSTER
Which Opposes Any Increase in the
Chicken Yard Family.
ICineinnati Enquirer.l

Charlie Farrel, who is bag
gage-master on the Cincinnati,
indianapolis, St. Louis and Chi
cago Railroad, and who lives at
at No. 766 West Sixth street,
this city, is the proud owner of
a big red rooster which is dead
set against hen set and a con-
sequcnt increase to the poultry
family as was ever Reynard
or sneaking canine egg-sucker.
The big red rooster early last
spring became enamored of one
of Farrell's hens, and to this
particular hen his roostership
gave undivided attention, never
losing sight of her by day and
roostlng and growing alongside
of her by night. One day the
ROSTERS sweetheart took it into
her head that She would like to
become the parent Of a brood
Of chicks and to this end began
clucking and setting. Encour-
aging her in her commendable
ambition Mr.. Farrell furnished
her nest with fifteen eggs. In
less than an hour from the time
biddy began setting the big red
rooster had seized her by her
red comb, had pulled her uncer-
enormously from the nest, and
then one by one had rolled out
the eggs and broken them open
with his strong bill. A few
days ago the same hen, to which
the rooster was still attentive,
again began setting, and i'll the
same place.. Incubation had
not progressed but a few min
utes before his roostership again
started to overthrow all pros
poets of a family. He again
seized the little hen by the
comb, again yanked her from
the nest, and had succeeded in
smashing one of the eggs, when
Mrs. Farrell came to the rescue,
canght the destroyer and tied

Why Uncle Phil Broke the
if Sabbath.

There are a great many peo-
pie, in irreligion, that remind
me of Uncle Phil pious old
darkey Of the old times in Texas.
Well, Phil was a feryent
Christian, with great gift of
prayer. He attended all the
Saturday night prayer-meetings
on the neighboring plantations,
and could pray louder and long
er than any of the brethren.
But Phil had one weakness, be
dearly loved money, and differ
ent from the negro generally,
loved to hoard it.
Near by us lived a man who,
not troubled by any scruples.
would pay Phil dollar to work
in his fields on Sunday. One
Sunday night Phil came home
after dark. l accosted him with:
"Where have you been, PHIL?
'Oh, jest knocking about,
massa."
You have been working for
Miller
"Well, you see, massa, the old
fellow is in weeds, and he jest
showed me silver dollar and !
Jest couldn't stand it."
"Ain't you afraid the devil
will get you for breaking the
Sabbath?''
Phil scratched his head a
minute, and said:
al guess the Lord'll 'scuse
me. massa." "
"No. lie says remember the
Sabbath day and keep it holy y
Phil went off looking pretty
sober, and it was not long be-
for [ heard his voice in fervent
prayer back of the barn, SO |
thought | would slip down near
enough to hear.
"Oh3 Lordw | heard him say,
''I have this day ripped and
feared, cussed and sweared
at them confounded oxen of
Millerps and jest broke the Sab
bath day. Oh, Lord, please for
give me; please forgive me, for
You knows T'se nothing but a
miserable heathen anyhow. If
you'll jest forgive me this time
I'll never do it again as long as
| live, 'cepten he gives me $3.50

At this point I was obliged
to beat a hasty retreat, but l am
thinking that poor Phil isn't
the only $3.50 Christian in this
world.

MAMMA'S SURPRISE.

Two little heads together met,
Two little faces sweet and fair
Pressed side by side, while softly twine
The curls of brown and golden hair;
Two pairs Of busy whispering lips,
Which have so much 10 plan and say;
Two little hearts so full of joy
And sunshine through the happy day!
One secret shared between the two,
What can ii be? Does mamma know?
Not she, indeedI Then who can guess
The secret they are plotting so?
But see! they're Off the merry rogues,
With scampering feet and joyous shout,
And backward glances at mamma,
Who wonders what they are about
So, ting -lins-a- ling ling,
And in comes Bridget. @Sure and true
An lis yourself, na'am, some ones been
And left this yalyiine for you!"
SO mamma reads the printed words
(Mlsspelled and crooked though they are
Which somebody has sent to her
eve luv yu, deer, dear, s,cete mammal
Was ever nicer valentine I'll
Than this, wonder? Mammals eyes
Hold two big tears. And maybe she
Can guess who sent it, if she tries;
But lest she should not really know,
Comes shyly forward little Leu;
While Oracle, following, helps her lisp,
"Mamnia, are wfited that for you!''

half the victims body still being
visible, and then suddenly dis
appearing in the frightful jaws
of the monster, whose tremen.

The steamship Victoria, Cas-

of Icebergs on the trip.
"Icebergs you are inquirine

to a reporter. ''Thc middle of

We are thinking Of cabling the
capstans Of our steamers now
on the other side to tow in lot
of them on their next trips.
They could be hauled up and
down the North and East Riv-
ers these hot afternoons and keep
the city cool. Capital idea, isn't

The reporter next started in
quest of the steamship Victoria.
There was three-quarters of an

and longest of West street side
walks to accomplish the task.

my ocean experiece | never saw
so many. At five o'clock on
the morning of June 81, we first
sighted them. We were then
about one hundred and eighty
miles southeast of Cape Race.
At first there seemed to be three
of them. As we drew near the
number marvelously increased.
BY seven o'clock we were in
the midst of crowd Of them. "
"Did you count them?"

they soon grew too numerous. 3"

there were?"
"There might have been one
hundred of them"
"Was there much stir among
the passergers?"
"1'hey were nearly all up and
stirring, each with a glass in
hand, and all trying to count the
bergs. There was great excite
ment on board"
"What were their dimensions
and appearance2'
''They were OF all sizes and
shapes. Many rose over five
hundred feet above the water,
and the forms Of some were very
pretty and fantastic. One had
two pinuacles, and from the cen
ter of another there rose a high
steeple. They looked like VII
Iages. The most singular feat
ure of the whole thing Is that
there were two lines of them,
and our steamer passed through
the intervening channel, a wall
of ice rising on either side. We
did not have to move the helm
but once on account OF them.
This was to avoid the last one

dangerous to have encountered
them in a dense fog o: on dark

the result of the breaking up of

CALIFORNIA DRIVERS.
How They Go Tearing Down The
Mountain Side.

San Francisco Argus.
The California ranchmen have
Iwonderful aptitude for driving,
and one sees some pretty good
examples among the hills. The
lroad down the mountain sides is
extremely unguarded on the out
er edge, and the descent in most
places is precipitous. A balky
horse or a fractured wheel, or a
slight carelessness iii handling
the reins, might easily send u
cariage-load Of people to des-
truction, and an awful destruc-
ton, too.
The path is wide enough for
only one pair Of wheels, but
at intervals it broadens so that
teams may pass each other.
The huge lumber teams which
carry wood from mills in the
mountain to the yards in the
valleys are especially hard to
manage. Yet the drivers always
seems easy and nonchalant.
First, there is a large four-wheel-
ed oaken truck with a seat in
front ten feet above the ground;
behind it is another truck, some
what shorter, but still enormous
ly stout. These are fastened
together and loaded with from
ten to fifteen tons of freshly
sawed lumber-boards and joists.
This mass is drawn by six or
eight mules or horses, guided by
reins and a prodigious longwhip.
The first wagon has powerful
brake, worked by a long iron
lever by the driver upon his seat.
The driver is a man of nerve
and courage. 1t will not do for
him to take fright, even if in
imminent danger, and he must
know to a hairs breadth where
he can go and where he can not.
But a beholder, ignorant of
the danger that constantly sur
rounds him, would say that his
work was simple, and that he
managed matters with ease.
True, it seems SO. With his
sinewy hands holding the reins
with carelessness, his legs out
stretched, with one foot feeling
the all important brake, he jogs
onward with his monster charge
without trouble or concern; the
bells upon the horses breasts
jingle a little tune; the great
wheels crush the stones in the
path ;the load creaks like a ships
hull in o sudden gust; wild birds
sweep down into the hazy, sun
ny depths below; yet the driver
seems to take no heed.
But let "a "scare" take place;
let herd of runaway cattle APP
pear at u bend and set the hors-
es wild, and then see what will.
happen. The day dreamer will
instantly become giant of
strength; he is up i'll flash; he
shortens his hold upon the reins;
and, feeling his wagon start up
beneath him, places foot Of
iron on the brake. The horses
snort, and rear, and surge; the
harness rattles, the dust arises,
the load shrieks again, and the
huge wheels turn faster and fast
er. An instant may hUrl the
wagon down into the valley with
its struggling train; a mad rush
to the other side Of the way may
end all in one horrible plunge.
eye, brain, skill are then
brought to work SO splendidiy
together that the peril is ayerted;
and the looker-on, who knows
not the lay Of the land, regards
the teamster with profound res
pect thereafter.
