Ii, Got the Desired Information

Il was in the smoking car on the
New York Central. There was one

dea and telling of how many duels
he had fought, and behind sat q
small man reading a magazine.

wheeled around, what would you

When the little man let go of the
big mans nose, the man with the
white hat on began to crouch down
TO get away from bullets, but there
was no shooting. The big man turn

The New Warren Wells.

BRADFORD, June "A report was
received from Cherry Grove, Warren
county, late tonight saying that j.
A. Cadwallader's well, on lot 6S5,
Cherry Grove, in close proximity to
that big gusher, GAG, had been open
ed up and was flowing at the rate of
300 barrels per day This report
is probably exaggerated, but it is
safe to say that this is to-day the
largest oil well in the world. Oper-
ations at the Murphy and Mahoop-
any wells are shut down, although
the Murphy is estimated as good for
600 barrels per diem. tits expect

An Angels Touch.

One evening not long ago a little
girl Of nine or ten entered a place
in which are a bakery, grocery and
saloon in one, and asked for five
cents worth of tea. ''HoW's your
mother ?" asked the boy who came
forward to wait on her. Awful
sick, and amt had nothing to eat
all day" The boy was Just then
called to wait upon some men who
entered the saloon, and the girl sal
down. In five minutes she was
nodding, and in seven she was sound
asleep and leaning her head upon q
barrel, while she held the poor old
nickel in a tight grip between her
thumb and finger. One OF the men
saw her as he came to the bar, and
after asking who she was, said:
Say, you drunkards, see here.
Here we've been pouring down
whisky when this poor child and
her mother want bread. Here's a
two-dollar bill that says I've got
some feeling left"
And can add dollar, observ-
ed one

They made up a purse of even 50,
and the spokesman carefully put
the bill between two of the sleeper's
fingers, drew the nickel away, and
whispered to his comrades

Influence of Newspapers.

a school teacher, who had been q
long time in his profession, and wit
messed the influence of a newspaper
upon the minds of q family of chill.
dren, writes as follows:
| have found it to be universal
fact, without exception. that those
scholars Of both sexes and of all
ages who have access to newspapers
at home, when compared with those
who have not, are:
l. Better readers, excellent in pro-
nunciation, and consequently read
more and understandingly.
,. They are better spoilers, and de-
fine words with ease and accuracy
3 They obtain practical knowl-
edge of geography in almost halt
the time it requires of other, as the
newspapers have made them ac-
quainted with the location of the
important places, of nations, their
government and doings on the globe.
A. They are better grammarians,
for having become so familiar with
every variety of style in the news
papers, from the commonplace ad-
vertisement to the finishing and
classical Grafton of statesmen, they
more readily comprehend the mean
ing of the text, and constantly ana
lyze its construction with accuracy.
j. They write better compositions,
using better language, containing
more thoughts-more clearly and
correctly expressed.
6. These young men who have for
years been readers of newspapers
are always taking the lead in debat-
ing societies, exhibiting a more ex-
tensive knowledge upon a greater
variety of subjects, and expressing
their views with greater flueEcy,
clearness and correctness.

stopped His Paper.

Nowadays when a subscriber gets
so mad because an editor differs with
him on some trivial question that he
diseontinues his paper, We remind
him of a good anecdote of the late
Horace Greelv. the well known edi,
tor OF the New York Tribune. Pass
ing down Newspaper Row in New
York city, one morning, he met one
OF his readers, who exclaimed:
''Mr. Greeley, after the article you
published this morning, | intend to
stop your paper
''Oh, no." said Mr.. Greeley, ''don't
do that"
"Yes, sir, my mind is mao up. I
shall stop the paper.
But the angry subscriber was not
to be appeased, and they separated.
Late in the afternoon tbetwo met
again, when Mr.. Greeley remarked:
"Mr. Thompson, | am very glad
you did not carry out your threat
this morning
"What do you mean?n
"Why, you said you were going TO
stop my paper
''And so / did. | went to the Of
flee and had your paper stopped"
You are surely mistaken; / have
Just come from there and the press
was running and business was boom
ing"
Sir" said Thompson, very pomp-
ously, II meant l intended to stop
my subscription to your paper"
"Oh, thunder" rejoined Greeley;
Il thought you were going to stop
the running of my paper, and knock
me ont of a living. My friend, let
me tell you something. One man is
just one drop of water in the ocean.
You didn't set the machinery of this
world in motion. and you can't stop
it; ard when you are underneath
the ground things upon the surface
will wag on the same as ever"

Pearls of Thought.

Distrust him who ;alks much OF
his honesty. Measure your minds
height by the shadow it casts.
II is good thing to learn caution
by the misfortune OF others.
Make not thy friends too cheap 10
thee nor thyself to thy friends.
Every tomorrow extends either a
hand Of anxiety or n hand of faith.
Mems lives should be ike the
days, growing more beautiful to-
ward the evening.
The most difficult thing in life is
to keep the heights which the soul
has reached.
What we are merely taught sell
dom nourishes the mind like that
which we teach ourselves.
Opportunities are very sensitive
things. If you sligh. them on their
first visit they seldom come again.
Human experience, like the stern
lights Of ship at sea, illuminates
only the path which we have passed

whichis OF especial interest. comingt
as il does, from the originator ofthe
Martha" grape
( FRIEsp COLEMAN We have
heard so much about the two New
White Grapes of the North, Niagara
and Pocklington, that our curiosity
was greatly aroused. The latter We
have growing, but the former it
seems was not TO be had for love of
money. Now however, since read
ing Campbelis comparison made a:
Boston, We feel as well without the
Niagara. He SAYS: "Bunches y q
er than the illustrations, and '. sigh-
ing more than 4 pound. Much the
largest and most attractive white
grape of native origin vet introduced,
throwing the Niagara, which were
exhibited beside it, entirely in the
shade"
Last Friday | received from Roch-
ester, q small basket Of Pocklington
in most excellent condition, ard
nothing for a long time afforded us
more pleasure. Although the fruit
was taken from yis.,s painted only
twenty-nine months ago, and the
vines left To overbear, tor the pur-
pose of ascertaining what they could
do, some of the punches weighed
over half a pound, and some of the
berries measured almost one inch in
diameter In quality, it is, to my
taste, just about good enough. 1t is
somewhat like the Martha, but less
foxy and better
We learn that the originator. sent
four shoots to an exhibition, with
three punches on each, and the
twelve punches weighed eleven
pounds. This has probably never
been done before by an American
grape. A peculiarly about il is
that many of the smaller berries
have but single seed, while the av-
erage is but two, the largest berries
usually three, and IN one | found
four. The seeds are small for so
large grape. Here is nearly all
rich, sweet, buttery matter, instead
of good part of berry being compos-
ed of seed. lfmy judgment is cor
rect, fourteen pounds ofthose grapes
will make a gallon of wine, and it
will make good wine without doubt.
1t will, however, be some yeas be-
fore much wine will be made out of
it, for it will be in too great de
mand for the table.
While Martha has done nobly-
and thousands of acres are planted
with it-and | need not be ashamed
of having originated it, now re-
sign and give the palm to Mr.. Pock-
lington. 1t is strong grower, and
looks as healthy as any vine
| ever saw. | have no vines for
sale, therefore no axe 10 grind, but
simply write this so those who in
tend to plant should not fail.to
plant it. 1t is most beautiful
fruit. The seed can be seen if the
berry be held between the light and
o ne's eye.
| have had the fruit since last Fri
day, (Oct. 2Sth), and this evening
bunch of it is fresh and sound.
