A Live Bolster.
Derrick Dodd in Frisco Post.

The other morning about 2 o'clock
the night clerk at the Palace was
aroused from a sweet dream Of q
diamond as big as cocoanut by
loud calls from somewhere in the
Handicapped upper regions Of the
tavern. After listening for fifteen a
twenty minutes to be sure there was
no mistake, he crawled leisurcly
over the counter, and gazing up into
the dim altitude Of the court, he be
held a white robed figure of gnesi
who was gestulating wildly over the
sixth floor Of the balcony, and yell,
ing: '''' ~
Il say, down there send some
body up here, will you? There is
something moving my bolster"
Aiming himself with the usual
halfgallon Of insect powder and the
distributor used in such cases, the
clerk proceeded to the room, No.
90O6, accompanied by several por-
tiers. .....
ooh, it isn't bugs" said the board
er, who was skating along the hall
carpet SO as to keep his feet warm.
1t was something large, kinder like
burglar with a cold or something.
Hello! why, it's gone!' he continued
as the gas was lit in the room.
They searched everywhere-un-
der the bed, in the closets, and even
up the chimney, but the bolster
could not be fond. Presently one of
the porters looked out ofthe window.
There on the little balcony outside
stood the bolster ON one end.
Its a ghost" exclaimed the guest.
''Fo, it isn't" said the night clerk ,
pointing to pair of huge brogans
that protruded from the, bottom of
the bolster dts only one of those
Chronical reporters. He took YOU
for a distinguished arrival and
crawled into your bolster to jot
down anything you might say in
your sleep"
lets 60 fer him." said the room
er, and they made a rush for the
unfortunate journalist, and despite
his frantic efforts to escape from his
bag they dropped him over the rail.
is he struck the street a couple of
hundred feet below, two terrible
shrieks arose.
Thank heaven said the guest, as
he peered down into the abyss, I'VE
have also killed San Francisco
hickman" CHORD by the orches-
ira.

A Good Little Boy Story.

A little boy wanted drum. His
mother, wishing to give him an i'm
pressive lesson, suggested that if he
should pray for it, he might receive
one. So at night, when ready for
bed. he knelt down and prayed as
fellows:
"Now | lay me down to sleep,
Ct want drum
| pray the Lord my soul to keep,
| want a drum,)
If l should die before | wake,
q want a drum
| pray the Lord my soul to take,
| want a drum
His father, who had been let into
the secret, had meanwhile quietly
placed drum on the bed. As til.
youpgster rose and his eyes fell OF
the drum, he exclaimed in an EN-
phatic manner that hanished all ser
ious thoughts from the minds Of hi
listeners: "Where the devil 1it
that drum come from ?" The MOI
al of that lesson may probably b
considered as lost.

HANDS UP.
How circumstances Have Effect Oh
Mems Nlais.

How circumstances Have Effect Oh
Mems NIais.
Catch q rat in q trap and he will
fight. Trap man, and well, you
can't depend on him. 1t ie accord
ing to the trap. In the heavy stage
coach, as We roll out of Leadville,
says frontier letter, are seyen men.
One is an army officer, who has
dozen scars to prove his bravery,
cut off from his command on the
plains last summer by score of In
dams, he entrenched himself and
fought the band off until help ar
rived Two of the others were des-
peradoes who have killed their men.
Three of the others are stalwart
miners, each armed with two
revolvers, and they look as though
they would prove ugly customers in
| fight.
The seventh man might do some
shooting on pinch, but he hopes
there will be no pinch. In the
crowd there are ten revolvers,
two derringers, three repeating rifles,
and four or five bowie knives, and
there is perfect good feeling as the
stage rolls along. 1t is tacitly un-
| derstood that the army captain is to
assume command in case the coach
is attacked, AMI that all arc to keep
cool and fire to kill.
| 1t is ten o'clock in the morning
The windows are down and the pas
sengers are smoking and talking and
seeking for comfortable positions
Coach has just reached the top o
a hill, when every horse is sudden
ly pulled up.
"If it's a bar we'll have some fun
growlcd one Of the miners as he pu
his head out of the window.
"If it's robber give me the frs
pop at him" whispered one Of tn
despcradoes.
- No one could say what the trou
bic was, when wiry little chap
about five foot six inches tall, witt
black eyes and hair, clean face AM
thin lips, appeared at the left han'
door with cooked revolver in eithe
hand and said:
Scents, I'm sorry to disturb yor
but I've got to make u raise thi
morning. Please leave your shoe,
! ers and come down here, one at 4
: time"
, 1t was sudden. 1t was SO suddel
that it took ten seconds to under
stand the drift Of his remarks
Then every eye turned toward tn
, right hand door; and the two re
) volvers held by a second robbie
/ were seen at the open window.

and would they fight?

ana would they fight?
Gents, I'm growing a leetle impa-
tient,' continued the first robber
"and | want to see the procession
begin to move"
Let's see. The captain was to
lead us, and we were to be cool, and
fire to kill. But the captain was
growing white around the mouth,
and nobody had a weapon in hand.
The rats were not going to fight.
One Of the miners opened the door
apd descended, and the other six
humbly followed. The seven were
drawn up-in line across the road,
And while the robber held his shoot
'sfs on sshc line, Aeeealy observed t.
his partner:
"Now, William, you remove the
weapons from the coach, and then
search these gentlemen"
AS William obeyed, every victim
was ordered to hold his hands above
his head, and whatever plumber was
taken from his pockets was dropped
into Williams hat. Four gold
watches, two diamond pins, tele-
scope, diamond ring, gold badge
and twelve hundred dollars in cash
changed hands in ten minutes.
Not man had a word to say. The
driver of the coach did not leave his
seat, and was not intertered with.
when the last man had been plum
dered, the gcnteel Dick Turpin kind
ly observed:
"You are the most decent set of
men | ever robbed. and if times
weren't so blasted hard, I'd make
each of you Il present of ten dollars.
Now, then, climb back to your plac-
es and the coach will 80 on"
The crowd ''ciumb," and the We
hicle resumed its journey. Not a
weapon, or a time piece, or a dollar
had been saved. Seven well armed
men had been cleaned out by two,
and not shot fired or wound CIV
en-. Each man took his seat with
out a word. Mile after mile was
passed in silence, and finally the
seventh man-the man who might
fight on pinch, but didn't-plaint-
lively suggested:
Can't some of you gentlemen
think of Il few remarks which would
be appropos to the OCCASION Z"
No one could, and the silence was
renewed

Art Of Printing.

Mayence was the cradle of the art
of printing, and the birthplace and
residence of John Gensiieisch, called
Gutenberg, the discover and invent
or of movable types. In 1887 a
bronze statute of Gutenberg, model
ed by Thorwaldsen and cast III Paris,
was erected in the open space oppo-
site the theater. The expenses were
betrayed by subscription from all
parts of Europe. Gensheisch, Git

and his first printing office, from
1443 to 1450, is still pointed out to

iookeu-Ior message was coming.
AT last, when three years had pass
| ed, little Meta-who was a babe
just born when he went away on a
dark, stormy night, and, having
kissed it and the lips that were
above it, said: "Wife, it is possible
that / may never know these joys
| again"-was able to talk, and she
expressed the thoughts of all four
when one day she said, Mamma,
think papa must he Dead" but they
never took down from the nail the
hat which he hung up when he
changed it for his naval cap, and
his favorite cup and saucer were new
er stirred from their place in the
cupboard. There was JOY in the
household when some friend sent
the newspaper containing the tele-
gram signed with her husbands
name, giving the first news of the
safe arrived of himself and crew, and
the joy was not lessened by reading
after the name "in command" Ev
cry telegram since signed melville"
has been meat and drink to the
news-famished little household, and
although the mother kept telling
the children continually that it was
duty, and duty to God and country
must always go ahead of duty to
family" tho little folks could not
understand ''why papa did not send
some message home" Yesterday,
Maud, a beautiful child about tif-
teen years of age, went, as she had a
thousand times in over three years,
to the post-ottice to know if there
was Il letter. Mrs. Melville was
seated at home sewing listlessly, and
the other two little girls were play
ing with their dolls. Suddenly one
OF the little ones said: why. ma,
something's the matter with Maud.
| actually believe there is letter
from papa Maud's feet did not
appear to touch the ground, She
ran through the gate. With tears
of JOY streaming down her face, and
choking with sobs. she threw her
self at her mothers feet, dropping
the letter and crying out: "Oh, ma
ma, at last! 1t is from papa!' The
mother tore it open, read it at
glance, and read it several times
over. All the afternoon, and up to
going to bed last night, the children
were doing nothing else but reading
over papa's letter. With the intel
ligence that it contained of the fate
Of others, and the knowledge that
just now he himself, with the search
party, is facing similar dangers,
there was little hope of the return
Of the husband and father. Writ
ten on singlc sheet of tough, heavy
note paper, the letter read as follows:
"IRKouTzk, Russian Siberia,

The Magnetic Needle.

A condensed explanation III re-
gard to the needle pointing to the
northward and southwark is as fol-
lows: The magnetic poles of the
earth do not coincide with the geo.
graphical poles. The axis of rota-
ton makes an angle of about % de-
grees with line joining the former.
The northern magnetic pole is at
present near the Arctic circle, on the
meridian of Omaha. Hence
the needle docs not everywhere
point to the astronomical north, and
is constantly variable within certain
limits. At San Francisco it points
about seventeen degrees to the east
of north, and at Calais, Me-, az
much to the west. At the northern
magnetic pole, balanced needle
points with its north end downward
in a plumb line. At San Francisco
it dips about sixty-three degrees
and at the southern magnetic pole
the south end points directly down
the attraction of the earth on a mag
| netic needle at its surface is abou
the same force as that of a hare
steel magnet, forty inches long
strongly magetized, at distance 0
one foot. The foregoing is the &C
cepted explanation of the fact tina
the needle points to the northwart
and to the southwark. OF course
no ultimate reason can be given TO
this natural fact, any more than 70
any other observed fact in nature.
