have been pending for several months be-
tween the Western Associated Press and

proved to be superior in many respects to
that of the New York Associated Press, and
also organized a new service in the East.

there will be but one general service. A

The Deaf Landlord,

Poker Bill" of Virginia, New, tells, in
the Enterprise, of that city. of a boarding
house keeper who is afflicted with a very
Convenient degree Of deafness. He hears

and is apt to misunderstood to his OWL

of this perversity: "When / went in to
breakfast yesterday morning, I went up to
the counter and asked my landlord if any
body had called to ask for me.
Says the landlord; 1t will be just $50
at the end of this week.
"Said L: Has there been a man in here
to see me this morning. one-eyed man!

money very badly said ny landlord.
"Tken 1 yell: Has anybody asked for
me this mornings'
".No, I don't want to sue you. but
shall expect the money next Monday sure
says my landlord.
You needn't yell in that way. I'm a
little deaf, know. but 1 can still hear it

Then comes in another boarder. and
says to the landlord good morning.
I'll see in a moment says the landlord;

It was IN off night for her, and I was glad
of the chance to see the famous heart
breaker in the attire of private life. She
wore a black silk dress trimmed with
bead passementeries. 1t was high at
the neck behind, but open in a heart-shape
in front, making a display of her white
skin that would have been perfectly modest
in a parlor or ballroom, but looked strange
in an American theater audience, though
it would have been all right in Paris. The
sleeves, too, were of a kind to command
notice. They we're %pinchingly tight from
her plump shoulders to just above her
elbows where they terminated and the
rest of the prettily tapering arms was
covered with ecru mitts. From across the
theater her hands and forearms looked
bare. A spray of flowers began on one
shoulder and trailed down on her bosom.
She had no jewelry. Her hat was big.

In short, it was Partisan and theatrical.
The behavior in the box was inst the same.

Ho,r to Pronounce Egyptian Nan,es

Mr.. Stanley Lane-Poole, than whom it
would be difficult to find a more compe-
tent authority, has addressed to a London
newspaper some much-needed instructions
as to the pronunciation of the Egyptian
proper names, of which patriotic poets in
England are making such a sad hash. SIT
may be laid down as a general rule," he
says. sthat Egyptian names of places and
people are much better kept in the middle
of the line, out of the way of rhyme. The
neglect Of this rule fesuls in such mistakes
as Tell-el-Kebir rhyming with sabre, when
it is really pronounced 'Tell-el-K ebeer' and
would rhyme with severe sArabi,' again,
does not agree, either in accent or in the
sound of the last syllable, with lullaby
but rather with "a harpy;' and Kassasin is
no rhyme for assassin though it might
run with as a scene.'" Ismalia, with the
accent on the penultimate, Port Said and
Zagazig-both accented on the last sylla-
ble-are generally mispronounced in the
verses which the war has inspired. Mr..
Lane-Poole does not fail to notice that
Tennyson did not trouble himself about
accents when he made the Caliph Haroun
Er-Rashid into ''Haroun al-Rdschid,"i and
he concludes his letter with a practical re-
mark the pregnancy of which American
newspaper readers will be quite as prompt
as their British brethren to recognize, as
follows: Our various and complicated
modes of spelling Oriental names are GER
family to blame for much of the confusion,
and when the same place is spelt in six diff
ferent ways by six different maps or six
different correspondents, to say nothing of
the idosyncracies of individual Oriental
lists, it is not surprising that the general

manent influence on English literature.

The New York Tribune, a few days before
tie late election. spoke doubtingiy. hating
", almost desparingly of the Republican
future thus: "Analize the figures, and it
will DE found that the Republican party of
the country mo feel secure of an cleo
ton Of a President in 1884 without carry
ing the State of New York. With New
York alone added to the sure Republican
States they will have a bare majority of
one in the Electoral College. The success
of a third party in any M of the Repub-
lican or in any two of the doubtful States
might throw the election of President and
Vice-President into the House which is to
be elected this fall. The bare possibility
that such result may follow should inspire
every Republican to come forward in the
present crisis and cast his vote for Repub-
lican Congressman even if he is bent on
scratching all the rest of the t;cket."N But
the considerations stated in the Tribune
did not inspire the Republican BOSS
ism" which caused the deaths Of aPresideut
and has now caused the death of a party,
and there IL no more hope for the party in
1884. than in the restitution CT the assas-
sinated President.

before that time.

Condition OF Farmers in England

Foreign competition has affected
English farmers, during the bad sea-
sons, chiefly in this way-it has
kept down the price of bread. Our
crops have been small in volume
and low in quality during the five
years, and these matters, along with
low prices, have done all or nearly
all the mischief. 1t is not foreign
competition which the British farm
er has to fear, but rather bad sea-
sons and an ill-conditioned climate
The Earl of Leicester declared to
me. during visit paid 10 his estate
in Norfolk month or two ago, that
neither he nor his tenantry would
fear American competition if only
we had good seasons in this country
This opinion is shared by many
farmers, though probably not by
many landowners, in other parts of
the country. On the other hand, II
must be said that great Numbers OF
English farmers, probably the ma
iority OF them, are now IN favor OF
protection. They consider that free
trade has been tried and found want
ing in this country. They point to
America, for whose fiscal regulation
they are beginning to have a feeling
of envy and admiration, and, say
Here is a great country which
does not believe in free trade !; for
thirty years we have been piping to
her, and she does not dance Is 1t
reasonable to suppose that we Eng
lish have a monopoly ofthe common
sense of the world, and that our sys-
tenn of international commerce Is
the best that is possible =? No /; We
will go back to the traditions OF our
fathers, and the people shall pay
more for their loaf. We will put q
tax on American corn, in the way
that America puts duty on our
manufactured goods, and so shall
reciprocal relations be maintained /"
And so on; under which it is clear
that America ia educating England.

William Hood, OF Seymour, Ind,
when in the prime of life must have
been a dangerous adversary. Many
stories are told of his prodigious
strength that will tax the credulity
of most people. 1t is related that
on one occasion when an infuriated
OK attempted to gore him, he sliced
the animal by the horns aad held
him until yoke was placed upon
his neck. 1t is an ordinary thing
for him when angry to knock an OK
down by blow with his fist. These
incidents gave variety to his life as
an ox-driver. His ieats of lifting
were marvellous. 1t is said he could
easily lift one end of q log that was
sixteen feet in length and two feet in
diameter, and load it upon his wag-
on. Once he stood laughing at five
men who were trying. Intellectually,
to move a huge rock so it could be
placed upon sledge. Taxing their
places, he raised an end of the rock
and showed it on the sledge without
assistance. Hood died the other
day, in abject poverty, his health
having been poor the last few years
of his life.

Youthful Aspirations.

How few are they who really at
tain to haf the honor OF which they
are desirous, and the glory Of which
they are ambitious How few are
capable of selecting the path which
leads most directly to the summit
of theiraspirations. Mango astray
and falter, and disappear by the
way, until, in the eyes Of the vast
crowd surging in the rear, only the
''princelv iewm stand on the heights
and gaze down with contempt and
pity at those who clamor for their
places. Surely the world is q queer
place and we are 'fearfully and
wonderfully made. Fame, in
the words of some grim humorist,
sis like creased pig, slipping by
many until at last some fortunate
individual seizes him by chance
and holds him fast" Though rath-
er inelegantly expressed, it contains
the gist of the whole matter. And
after fame has been obtained, how
different it is from what was ex-
pected.
He who ascends the mountain top will
find
The l,ftiest peaks mos. wrapped in clouds
of snow"
Therefore, young reader, aspiring
college boy, take into consideration
the words of poet who understood
what he was talking about if anyone
ever did. Do not be inordinately
ambitious unless you are exceeding
ly energetic and industrious. There
is no royal road to fame.' Men have
become notorious when they saw
celebrity slowly disappearing from
their view. This is what especial
| " desire to caution you against. l
have frequently seen persons who
were so excessively ambitious that
| failing to obtain renown, they bent
all their energies toward notoriety.
"Anvthing better than oblivion,

/ tical it was we shall presently see
From present appearances the earth
will continue to exist many millions

will be even so much as known
IT'S true that past persons and events
appear greater through the ''mists

comes too dense, they cannot be
seen at all. Immortality on earth
is impossible.-Anonym
