An Editors Dream.

HE fell asleep after time, and To- he
dreamed again. And it seemed to him
in vision that, having armed himself
with certain papers and books, he turned
his steps once more toward the place
and knocked at the gate.
"Hello, is that you againP" said Pc
ter. "What do you wishP"
"Let these persons again come FORTH"
replied the editor, and Peter this time
made them all pass through the gate
and stand outside.
They came as before and uttered the
same cries as before.
"Why didn't you notice that big egg
I sent youP" yelled the first.
"It was rotten" replied the editor.
"Why didn't you write up my soda
fountainPn cried the druggist.
"You had your tickets printed at the
other Office" calmly replied the local
man.
"Why did you write about old Tom
linson's hens and never speak of my
new gatep" shouted the third.
"Old Tomlinson paid for his adver-
tising and you didn't. Here's the bill, ~
said the editor.
"Why did you spell my name wrong
in the programmePh groaned the local
talent.
"Take look at this manuscript OF
yours and see for YOURSELF" said the ed.
itor, with grim smile.
The rest of the company yelled their
complaints in unison, and the editor
calmly sorted out series of bills fol
unpaid subscriptions, and presented
each with one; and il was SO that
when they had received them, they al
tore their hair and rushed violently
down steep place into the sea, ant
st. Peter, taking the editor calmly by
the hand, led him within the gate anC
said:
"Come, friend; these chaps managed
to slip through here in spite of us, but
thanks to the press, we now know wha
sort of fellows they are. Come in ant
stay; we need a few such men as you il
| here. ~ EIchdnqe.

A MllliOnaire's Career.

MILLIONAIRE BoRLAND landed in this
country from Ireland when boy and
worked on farm up the Hudson for $40
a month. In 1852 he went to San Fran
cisco and soon afterward began work in
the mines for 81 day. Since that time
he has made and lost fortunes. He is
represented by the Daily Mining NetCs
as saying: "fn 1872 Thought 500 shares
of Central for less than $4,000. This
mine was soon afterward cut up and put
into California, and the redistribution
give me 1850 shares. never paid an
assessment on it, for none was ever called
for, and in no time the stock went up TO
$40 a share, when l sold. That paid
pretty well. Let me see; paid $4,000
and sold for S925,0 That left me a
profit of $920,000. That was one of the
best speculations, but not quite as good
as another one that was in almost at
the same time. bought 500 shares of
Consolidated Virginia for $50 a share
and paid two assessments on it, which
brought up the price to $50 a share.
This mine was also " cut up Just about
this time, and my 500 shares spread ont
| into 1850 shares. 1 held this stock for
| two wears, when it went up like flash.
| l sold out in 1874 for $3.50 a share. 1t
cost S2S, 900 for my stock, and l sold it
for S2,O62,50 That was pretty good
interest on the money. One Saturday
the stock was selling for $3.50 share,
but held on. The following Monday it
was $500 a share. tell you it took a
pretty strong head to stand that. l was
getting rich not at the rate of million a
minute, as they say, but 100000 day
or so; but that was fast enough. No
body ever knew anything about this till
it was all over. l never told my wife
and family any of my business affairs,
and never kept any books. The only
book that I kept was little pass-book
that carried in my inside coat pocket,
with record of all that l bought and
sold, and the price. never let any one
see this, and never brought it out except
sometimes on Sunday afternoon, OIL
whenI was alone. My heavy losses in
1873 were on Sierra Nevada and Union.
Host 81, 100000 then inside of ten days

stock. The veins were not so wide as
was expected. IN Y. Tribune.

A ChiId's Cry That Lost Half a Million
Dollars.


THE following incident is told in Mrs.
Brassey's new book, "Sunshine and
Storm in the East"
We went down as far as the French
bridge, over which the contractor lost
an immense sum of money in the fol
lowing manner: The bridge was to
have been finished on particular day,
but the contractor found that this would
be impossible with Turkish workmen,
unless he worked day and night. This
he obtained permission to do, and the
necessary lights and torches were sup
piled at the Sultan's expense. All went
well for time, till the unfortunate con-
tractor was told that he must open the
bridge to let ship from the dockyard
pass through some time before the
bridge was finished. He said it was
| impossible, as he would have to pull
every thing down, and it would take
two or three months to replace the scat
folding and pile-driving machines. He
went 10 the Ministers OF Marine and FL
nance. They only said eff the Sultan
says it must be done, it must, or we
shall lose our places il not our heads, "
So the ship came out, at a cost of q
/ llItlb over GlOpiOVO anu u utldy VI luloe
months in the completion of the bridge,
all because the Sultan found his small
son crying in the harem one day, tho
child's grief being that, though he had
Just been promised TO be made an adj
miral, he could not see his flag hoisted
from his own particular ship from tho
nursery windows. So large iron-clad
was brought out from the dockyard and
moored in front of Dolmabagtcheh to
crafty his infant mind, thus causing
enormous inconvenience to the whole
town for months, to say nothing of the
waste of money, of which the Sultan
paid very little, and for the loss of which
/ might Imagine he cared still less.
