Monday the Council was petitiOned to

Sewer Commissioners, have succeeded
in inducing the City Council to author
ize the preparation of an ordinance gTa-

the unfOrtunates who live on that thor

Gold in Ancient Times,

Gold was in excess III ancient times
and mostly taken from the rivers in
Asia. The fables Of Pactolus, of the
golden fleece Of the Argonauts, Of the
gold from Ophir, the history OF King
Midas, etc.. all point to IN Eastern
origin of this metal. According to
lliny, Cyrus returned with $4,000
Roman pounds Of gold (about So.
u00, 000). The treasures exacted
from Persia 10y Alexander tie Great
amounted to 35l 900 talents, or
S400, 100000. Gold also came from
Arabia, and upon the Nile from the
interior of Africa. Pliny calls As.
turias the country in which the most
gold is found. y tablet bearing the
following inscription was found in
Idanha Felha, Portugal: Claudius
Rufus returns thanks to Jupiter for
having permitted him 10 find one
hundred and thirty pounds of gold
These sources of wealth have ceased
to flow, and the endeavor of several
Englishmen to reopen them have
been unsuccessful. Bohemia, Nah.
rem, Silesia, and Tyrol, all have pro.
duced gold, and receding Of the gla-
ciers has caused old mines to he I'M.
covered, while upon the Italian side,
At Monte Rosa, Val Sesina. and Val
Ansoca, gold.mines are still worked
to-day. although with indifferent sue.
cess. The only works of any note are
those of Kremnitz. Hungary. 1t

Not That Kind of a Man,

The seventh passenger was u lady.
There was an abundance of room in the
car. but as she entered an elderly man
rose up with D great flourish and called
out:
Take my seat, madam. | nm not
the kind Of man TO keep seat in
the street Car and oblige lady to stand
up"
She sank down with half bow in ac-
acknowledgement, and he held out his
hand for her fare with the remark:
"SOme men are brutal enough to per-
NIT a lady to stumble to the fare-box
and back, but that isn't me-"
He took her ticket and deposited it,
and then hung to the strap and con-
tinued:
"And l know men who think that
passing lady's fare to the box gives
them the privilege Of entering into con-
versation with her about the weather,
crops, rate of mortality, politics. and So
forth. That isn't me, however"
The speech had its due effect upon all
the passengers, including the victim.
and the man let out another link by re-
marking:
Giving up my seat in the car to a
lady does not entitle me to offer TO assist
her off the car, or ask il she is married
or single, or in any manner break down
the stern barriers Of social formality,
and know it. 1t is simply an act OF
courtesy, and shall SO consider it
As he was ready to get off he looked
back and said:
a have seen men whose coucei,
obliged them to lift their hats aud bow
to everybody in the car before stepping
of. but that isn't me. l shall step of
without any formality, and without hop
ing will be missed
When the six looked back and saw
him sprawling in the dust they were
glad of it.--Free Press.

A Street Scene.

"Comc ill.," said saloonkeepcr of
our city recently to habitual drinker,
who happened to be hitching his team
hear his door, "come in from the cold,
he continued in the blandest manner
possible, land make yourself comfort
able. Why, how you shlver, have n & lass
of good old rye; it will warm you up
and do you good" No, thanks" said
the farmer with some firmness, 81 have
promised my wife that will break of
this habit, and l will keep my word.
The fact is have sadly neglected my
work since got 10 running here, and l
have made up my mind 10 turn over II
new leaf; and / Must say that am
thankful that am still able To control
my appetite. l tell You ,ehat, it
wouldn't do for every man VIII" likes
liquor as we'll as do, 10 step in here
and &c tempted with that lass OF wills
ky; but ] know what | nm about, and !
jist want to say here, that, us we always
have been good friends, l want to keep
81, if you are willin." Agreed" said
The rulnsetler, shaking the other warm.
Iy Ivy the hand; "but neither your wife
ar any other reasonable person could
object to your taking one glass Of
pure liquor to warm you up. Are you
not afraid it would hurt you to break
off at once, while the weather is 30 cOldf
[ think if your wife could see how the
cold affects you, she would change her
mind, that Is, it she thinks rs much OF
you rs Il woman ought to think OF such
u man. But then you carry lie III
surance which WIS drawn up in her
favor / understand, which may affect
her feelings somewhat. 1t would some
women's | am sure" "You wrong my
wife 10y casting such reflections upon
her character" said the farmer. "She
desires nothing so much rs my personal
safety, can assure you; but MS you feel
so sure that the liquor you 40 kindly
offer mo will do me good, and, as you
say, am inclined to believe that it is
unsafe to break off too sudden, | will
take it this once; but mind il must br
the last, as am resolved to become a
temperate man" But it wes not the
last for even while he talked OF his tu-
ture sobristy his tongue began to
thicken, and his mind 10 wander; and
the saloonkccper laughed in his. sleeve
to see how soon that poison did its work
on the brain of his victim. Then az his
became more bluntcd, and
his appetite. more ungovernable, he fell
into his old habit; and at a late hour
staggered once more into the presence
IF his nearly heartbroken wife, whose
asst hope will vanish when that husband
sinks to drunkartls grave.
