4 Man Bound to succeed.

We know of at least one man that is
destined, if he lives few years, to have
a bank account. He is apparently an
Immigrant, and probably arrived here
last evening. This morning he was met
on one of our principal streets, a sturdy
looking, we'll knit foreigner, wearing a
wrinkled but clean blouse and armed
with brand new saw and sawbuck, the
latter being evidently of his own manu-
facture. He was Just striking out to
find something to do. His bright, manly
face told of the faith that was in him
faith in the success of industry and So
briefly. This man is not of the kind that
cone to the Pacific Coast wsth the ex-
pectation of finding gold mine or taking
up fine ranch within week after their
arrival, nor of that other class that
lounge about waiting for something to
turn up. He realized the fact that he
was among strangers, and that II he
would thrive he must work. The cold
weather Is coming on and people must
have their wood cut. A small outlay
would procure q saw, and piece of
scantling might soon be fashioned into
! the other necessary part of the woodsaw-
| er's outfit. A few dollars sutficed to fit
him out, and inside of fifteen hours after
his arrival he was ready for business.
That man will succeed where thousands
would fail-he will grow rich while some
of his fellow adventures will be "beat-
ing" their way over the country, looking
for work and praying that they may not
find it, We admire pluck of this sort,
and trust that our hero of the blouse and
sawbuck is by this time ''up to his eyes"
in somebody's woodpile.- Sacramento

Cause OF SlOVenliness.

Undou btedly many women who are not
slatternly by nature become so on ac-
count of the unvarying routine of domes-
tic life. They lose interest in acts con-
tinually repeated and slight small duties.
Perhaps the housewife does not sweep
her rooms so thoroughly to-day because
the operation must be repeated to-mor-
row, nor dust so particularly, since dust,
unlike her coffee, has trick of settling
often. Why should she take unspairing
pains with food which is to be eaten as
soon as it is out of the oven and not by
visitors, who would credit her with skill?
Or why be ''fussy" about the beds that
are to be tumbled in very few hours?
At the same time. what is worth doing
at all, is worth doing we'll, they tell us.
Why did she undertake business for
which she had no talent. and in which
she finds nothing congenial? For whom
does she seek to make home attractive?
1t is not worth while to persevere in her
irksOme routine for the sake of those she
loves? For that matter, is not life itself
monotonous? A certain suicide made
the excuse that the routine of sleeping,
dressing and eating-indeed, of life in
general-was too wearisome for endur-
ance, and so quilted it.

A private letter from Canton, Van
Zandt county, gives an account of a
shuddering accident that happened there
one day last week. Mrs. Hollomon is
the mother of twins just three years old.
One day last week Mrs. Hollomon con.
cluded to do some scrubbing. So, while
she was taking off the water, which was
boiling hot, she told the twin girls to
bring some shucks. The little things
ran to the shuck pen and one of them
thrust in dimpled hand after shucks,
when something bit the hand. The other
put IN her hand aud was also bitten. The
mother heard the cries of pain and ran
out to see what was the matter. Failing
to understand the cause of the wound,
she turned to the shuck pen for an ex-
PLANTATION and there found q deadly
copper-mouthed snake. the author of the
mischief. The little girls were suffering
much pain when the mother returned to
the house, to meet new horror which
almost made her blood run cold. The
kettle had turned over on the grandchild
and scalded it to death. Before medical
aid could be summoned the snake bites
had done their deadly work, and the
three little children, hale aid hearty but
two or three hours before, lay cold in
death in the presence of broken heart.

She Went to The Ball.

A Richmond Va correspondent SAYS:
] saw one striking example of the self
assurance OF the American girl who, this
morning, Is the envy of all her fair COM
panions at this hotel. She was bright
and handsome girl from some neighbor-
ing city and sat with some friends in the
parlor of the Exchange Hotel, where the
officers were lettering about for an hour
or moro previous to their departure for
the ballroom. Miss Columbia, with all
the ambition of her sex, sew the hand
some figures and glittering costumes of
the French officers and longed to know
something more of them. Wont you
point out to me the Count De Grasse?"
she asked of an American newspaper cor
respondent of the party. Ger
tainly,' was the reply. II will point all
these gentlemen ont to you" "Oh, my,
how handsome" she exclaimed, as one
by one the officers entered the parlors.
tHow sorry L am not to be able to go to
the ball. And she gave her walking
suit little twist as though, like Cinder-
ella, she could transform it into q ball
room costume. The little .'godmother"
Of the story book did not appear, how
ever, but in her stead the magnificent
form of Colonel Hippolyte William Bos-
san, of the Twentieth Dragon, a gentle
man whose resemblance to General Han
cock has been so often remarked since
his arrival. The Colonel bowed to the
Journalist and stopped Immediately be-
fore him. Nothing was left but to pre-
sent Miss Columbia, who could speak no
word OF French to the superb French
man, who spoke no English. The young
lady, by no means abashed, NUT
tered her regrets at not being
able to attend the festivities, and the
Frenchman, through an interpreter,
begged the young lady to go with him.
The color flew to her cheeks, her eyes
sparkled with delight, she hesitated a
moment, and then, being an American
girl, she went. How her lady compan-
ions were terrified.
"Will she go with the fellowi" they
exclaimed, in chorus, as the girl took the
arm of her escort, who was delighted at
the prospect of SO beautiful q companion.
"She will, ;" said the journalist, land if 1
could | would like to supply you all with
handsome French escorts" / saw them
later, arm in arm, as silent as twin
sphinxes. They danced early and often,
however, and despite the mutterings of
disapprobation that are being whispered
about the ladies' parlors this morning,
Miss Columbia is the happiest girl in
Richmond.

A Husband Who Laughed.

Several men were making purchases in
Seventh street store last week, says the
Washington Capitol, when man who
had been looking out of window for
some time turned and said:
well, that's bad case"
What is it?" inquired two or three at
once.
"Well, don't know who is the hus-
band of this woman out here in the
wagon, but if were he I'd go across the
street and smash that fellows head"
"Why?"
why, because he has been working
like beaver for the last half hour to get
up Irritation with her"
At this one of the men began to
chuckle. Then the chuckle ran into a
laugh, and finally he had to sit down.
Whats the matter with you?"
"Why, I'm-I'm that woman's hus-
band"
''Are you? And you're laughing over
the fiirtation?'
II can't help it," he said. as he
went off into another fit. ''Just think of
him flirting and strutting up and
down and doing his prettiest when my
old woman has been stone blind for sew
eral years. Ha! ha! ha!'
A friend, wrIung from San Leandro,
California, tells the following: A cute
little tive-year old, whose parents were
connected with the Presbyterian church,
said: Mamma was Christ a Jew 2"
"Yes, DEAR" replied the mother. ''Well,
that is strange, now, isn't it, mamma,
when his father, God, was Presby-
terian."
