"living in glass houses should never

proper that those working in glass houses
should say a "good word" for anything

When one breaks camp in the morn
ing, he turns back again and again to
see what he has left. Surely he feels
that he has forgotten something. What
is it? It is only his own thoughts and
musings he has left, the fragment of his
life he has lived there. Where he hung
his coat on a tree, where he slept on the
boughs, where he made his coffee or
broiled his trout over the Goals, where
he drank at the little brown pool in the
spring run, where he looked long and
long into the whispering branches over
head ; he has left what he cannot bring
away with him-the flame and the ashes
of himself.

Put Your Shoulders Back.

Much of the proverbial ~slenderness
and physical frailty of our girls, as COM
pared with those Of other countries, has
been charged to intellectual habits and
overwork in study. It is inquest enable
that they need outdoor life and more
education in development. Many Amer
lean girls, through inattention to the
way. of carrying themselves, uncon-
sciously contract the habit of bringing
the shoulders forward and STOPPING.
This position not only detracts greatly
from their appearance, butt is also very
pernicious in point of health. The cele-
brated Aaron Burr, in a letter to his
daughter Theodosia, afterward the wife
of Gov. Aston, of South Carolina, wrote
as follows on this subject:
"Your habit of STOPPING and bringing
your shoulders forward upon your breast
not only disfigures you, but is alarming
on account of your health. The contin-
of this vile habit will certainly
produce consumption. Then farewell
pleasure, farewell life! This is no ex-
aggeration, no fiction to excite your ap-
prehensions. And, setting aside this
distressing consideration, I am aston
ished that you have no more pride in
your appearance; you will certainly
stint your growth and disfigure your
person"
There is reason to believe that Miss
Burr gave heed to this admonition of her
father, for she afterward became re-
nowned for her beauty as well as for su-
perior mental endowments and accom-
MISUNDERSTANDING.

LIEUTENANT FLIPPER.
Further Testimony In HIS Trial at
Fort Davis.

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, November 49,
Lieutenant Wilhelm was sgain cross-exam-
ined Yesterday morning. He said he was
present when Fnpper's quarters were
searched first, and that other persons were
present. one of them Mexican, but he did
not know them. Flipper addressed them in
Spanish. Did not know what he said. The
parties disturbed nothing in the room
and took nothing away. Placed Flip
per under arrest, and ordered a
Sergeant with carbiDes and cartridge 8
to guard him. Did this on his own respon-
sibility as officer of the day, and not on the
express orders of Colonel shafter. The
first time he saw Flipper was at West Point
in 1873. Was In his class. Witness resigned,
and had no acquaintance with him subse-
quentfy. Was appointed to the army from
civil life in 1875, and met Flipper here. He
had never been on sociable terms, but had
had official intercourse, with him, and they
had always been friends aud agreeable.
On his redirect examination the witness
stated that he visited the defendant at the
guardhouse. Had rendered him his servi-
ces, and had done several errands for him.
Flipper had told him he had money coming
to him for services, and wOud meet last
years deficit. He said; "You know how
the Colonel is. He is an erratic man, and l
told him had forwarded the money, and
he so reported to the Chief CommissarY.
He had no deposit in New York. My
publishers owed me some 81, 500
on my book" He said he could have made
things come out all right IL he had not been
compelled to turn things over so soon.
Witness told the accused that his shortage
amounted to 81, 40. He answered that the
81, ,440 check was good, and that his New
York bslauce would more than make that
good.

CARRYING A BROKER.
Wreck of the Pacific Bank of Boston.

Boston, November 19-The Pacific Ma
tional Bank closed its doors yesterday.
From its inception 1t has lsbored under dis
advantages. 1t has never been a member of
the clearing house. The catastrophe has
been impending since January, when the
bank began to carry Theo. q. Weeks, stock
broker, who became heavily indebted to the
bank.
Theodore G. Weeks, advances to whom
are said to have caused the failure Of the
Pacific National Bank, is we'll known upon
the street as shrewd and heavy operator in
stocks, but being unable to procure
funds to secure himself against
the unexpected decline in stocks,
Of which he was large holder,
he has suffered financial defeat. A few
months ago he was placed in similar posi-
ton by the collapse of Boston, Hartford and
Erie bonds, in which he was largely interest
ed but, after making satisfactory arrange
ments with his creditors, he again appeared
on the street, and 1t is understood that his
losses were made good by a subsequent
advance of the bonds.
At 11:30 a. m. the Central National Bank
stopped paying checks. They do not wish
it to be understood as a permanent suspen-
slOn, Dut temporary sbOppage TOT the pur-
pose of consultation among the directors as
to the proper course to pursue. At the
clearing house to dav the Central Bank was
compelled TO pay $4OO, 900. There was great
apprehension or State street this morning
until after the clearing house meeting an
nouncement, that all loans between the
banks had been promptly paid, and that the
rate had not materially advanced, which
greatly allayed the general anxiety.
The Central National Bank, which stopped
payment at 11:30 a. m, at 1:30 p. m. re-
sumed payment. The resumption sf pay
ment by the Central Bank has inspired q
marked feeling Of confidence, and there is a
generally expressed opinion that the worst

The New YORK stock Market.

NEW YORK, November 19.-The stock
market was irregular at the opening, and
the early dealings were characterized by a
feverish tone, the general tendency being
towards lower prices. Quite a sharp de-
cline occurred at the first board, from which
there wss a partial recovery, butaowing to
the uncertainty which prevailed as
to the condition of the Boston banks, and to
the hardening tendency of the monetary
situation, there was heavy pressure to sell
during the afternoon, and prices fell off
steadily The lowest quotations were
touched after the second call. The decline
ranged from Il to per cent, the latter for
