Where Gath Gets His Facts.

Beyond all this power of memory and
facility of expression Townsend has n
very systematic method of doing what
he is about. In one room in his house
he has the walls lined with scrap books,
which are indexed thoroughly. If II
man comes suddenly into prominence,
or anything happens to draw him be-
fore the public, Townsend takes down
the book which is indexed with the let
ter beginning this mans name, and
finds all he has accumulated there con-
corning him. As he reads every news
paper that comes along, and clips out
all personal matters, or matters bearing
upon persons, he has drawn together a
tremendous amount of information
about everybody who has been in the
papers at all since he began this sort
of thing. l suppose his scrap-book sys-
tenn is the most complete thing of its
kind in America or in the world. When
he reads over his book, he sits down
and tele graphs all he can find or invent
that makes good reading. He seems to
have taken the clipping notion from
Charles Reade, who is well-known to
have conducted operations on this line
ever since he. was a youngster. Reade,
however does not go in for personal in
formation, Of course, because he is not
in journalism.-NeiC York letter.

In justice to ourselves we desire to
state that the Cheyenne Sun has viii
fled us and placed MS in false position
before the public. IL has stated that
while at Rock Greek station we were
taken for peanutter and otherwise
ill-treated at the railroad eating-corral
and omelet emporium, and that in con-
sequence of such treatment We shed
great scalding tears as large as water
melons. This is not true We did
shed the tears as above set forth, but
not because of ill-treatment on the part
of the clearinghouse proprietor.
1t was the presence of death that
broke our heart and opened the foun-
tains of our great deep, so to speak.
When we poured the glucose sirup on
our pancakes the stiff and cold remains
of large beetle and two cunning lit
tie cockroaches fell out into our plate,
and lay there hnshed in an eternal re-
pose.
Death to us is all-powerful. The
king of terrors is to us the mighty SOW
ereign before whom we must all bow,
from the mighty Emperor down to the
meanest slave-from the railroad SUI
perintendent, riding in his special car,
down to the humblest humorist--all
alike must some day curl up and die.
This saddens us at all times, but
more part cularly when death, with his
remorseless lawn-mower, has gathered
in the young and innocent. This was
the case where two little twin cock
reaches, whose lives had been unspot-
ted, and whose years had been un-
clouded by wrong and seltishness,
were called upon to meet death to-
gether In the stiffness of the night,
when others slept, these little affection
ate twins crept into the glucose sirup
and died.
We hope no one will misrepresent
this matter. We did weep and are not
ashamed to own it. We sat there and
sobbed until the table-cloth was we
for four feet and the venerable ham
was floating around i'll tears. 1t was
not for ourselves, however, that we
wept No unkindness on the part of an
clearinghouse proprietor ever provoked
such tornado of woe. We just weep
when we see death and are brought in
close contact with it. And we are not
the only ones that shed tears. Even
the butter wept. Strong as it was, it
could not control its emotions.
We don't very often answer news
paper attack, but when we are accused
of weeping till people have to take off
their boots and wiring out their socks,
we want the public to know what it is
for. -Ldrdnlie Boomerang.

Not n Fashion Editor.

Somehow fellow will get himself
into trouble when he least expects to.
The Boston Post says: A Young lady
iii the rural districts wrote to us asking
advice about how to have dress made.
Now, we didn't know any more about II
dress than a single man ought to, and
didn't know what to say. But we
wanted to accommodate her, so we got
a fashion magazine, copied description
of a dress, and sent 1t TO her. Yester-
day the queerest creature we ever saw
bounced into our Office. DO you see
this dress?" she demanded; I've worn
1t in here to let you see it. This is the
thing you advised me to make; look at
it." Then she went on. She had caused
the dress to be made up, and worn il
TO the city, expecting it TO be right in
style, and found it to be n terror. In
vestigataon showed that the magazine
was of 1S47. We hadn't observed it be-
fore. Then there was only one thing
for rs to do. We told her that we
were not the editor who wrote the
article, and took her to the Office of the
literary editor, whom we pointed out as
the man. Then we fled the Office. We
hope we shall not See the literary ed

A Magazine Of Teanofs.

It is upon record THAT the largest

much-prized possession of Mrs. HAYES,
an English lady. Three hundred of
these frail. beautiful memorials of an
honored past were bequeathed to her
daughter; under her artistic eye, room
has been devoted to them, where they
are arranged with great effect. Among
them are several once the property of

A Nebraska Sharper.

A Nebraska thief devotes his time
entirely to the larceny of hogs, and
with great success. He goes forth by
night armed with long stick, to which
sponge is fastened and bottle of
chloroform. The porcine victim is
lulled to rest by the anesthetic and
then born silently away. One night
one of the slumbering hogs rolled out
of the thiefs wagon. A kind-hearted
farmer who came along the road assisted
the thief to load up again, amid profuse
thanks. When the farmer reached
home he discovered that the pig was
from his own sty.-Onahd Herald.

A CITY Moving or on Wheels.

l arrived at Bartlett, ID. T., about the
middle of the afternoon of beautiful
day. | found some stir and activity
among the people of the city, but il
seemed to be the excitement incident
to the emigration of n city on wheels.
The people generally had abandoned
all hope of the city, and were moving
their houses bodily to Devils Lake and
other places. The houses were first
lifted Oh TO large timbers of sufficient
size and strength TO bear the weight of
the house. These timbers were then
suspended under two monstrous freight
wagons on either side of the building;
four large horses or oxen were then
hitched to the wagons on each side, and
the road to Devils Lake being across q
smooth prairie, the teams were able to
move along easily with a fair-sized
building. Some of them, with the
teams attached, presented to my mind
sights most magnificent. 1t was the
first time that | had ever seen city
moving on wheels. l had seen people
moving on n large scale in their So
called prairie schooners," but the
sight was tame compared with this. /
thought of remark i once heard to the
effect that "the approach of train of
cars drawn by powerful engine was a
magnificent sight to behold" and l
thought to myself road lined with
two-story houses, moving to the music
of the steady tread of teams of eight
powerful oxen, was a sight equally
magnificent And such was the fate of
the once proud city of Bartlett.-R.

receptacles as were essential to the
comfort of that prince of tea drinkers,
DIR. Johnson. IT is said that he owned
one teapot holding two quarts, and an
other, once owned by Mrs. Pioggi-"a
three-quart measure of delight" This
last is described as "of old Oriental
porcelain" much painted in quaint
device, and richly gilt.
George Nv. had, it seems, passion
for similar "relics of pleasure, and had
