Webster at the Bar.

Just as Mr. Webster was about TO help
himself the bartender happening to look
up, started as if he had seena spirit and
cried:
Stop with great yehemence.
He then took the decanter from
Webster's hand, replaced iton the shelf
from whence il came and disappeared
beneath the counter. Rising from those
depths, he bore TO the surface an old
fashioned black bottle which he substi-
tuted for the decanter Mr. Quincy goes
on TO tell MS that Webster poured a
small (O quantity into glass, drank it
OFF with great relish and threw down
half dollar in payment. The barkecpcr.
began to tumble in drawer Of silver as
if selecting some smaller pieces for
change whereupon Webster waved his
. hand with pOrtentous dignity, and in
rich and authoritative nespronounced
these words

piece Of advice Whenever you give
that good brandy from under the
counter never take the trouble 10 make

As the travellers turned to go out, the
dealer in liquors placed one hand upon
the bar, threw himself over Il, and
caught Mr.. Quincy by the arm.
Tel rue who that man i,," he cried
with genuine emotion.
He is Daniel Webster, was the re-
ply.
The man paused as if TO find words
adequate TO convey the impression made
upon him, and then exclaimed in a
feryent half whisper:
by Heavens, ,ir, that man should be
President Of the United States

Railroads i'm Brazil.

There has been considerable progress
and deep interest felt in railroad de-
velopment in Brazil the past year.
The GovernmentS wns and administers
several lines. and, as a rule. guarantees
an income of seven per cent. on the
necessary capital invested in the con-
Struction of private roads. The number
of miles of railroad owned and in opera
ton by the Government is 800; and it
also has nearly the same number of
miles of railroad in course of construc-
ton, and which probably will be
finished in six or eight months. The
number of miles of private railroads in
operation is 1,600, and in course of con-
struction, 1,400. On the capital of
S34, 900, 900 employed by the private
companies owning these roads the Gov
eminent has guaranteed an annual in
come of seven per cent. This guaran-
tee is not loan, but an absolute gift;
and so far the Government continues to
pay the interest on the aforementioned
capital. As soon as the companies
begin to make sufficient earnings, the
Government will cease the payment of
interest. Fully one-third of the rail-
roads are through billy country. The
greater portion of them are through a
country that has long been settled.
though a considerable part is vet but
sparsely settled. Most of the rails with
which the roads have been made were
imported from England, while part of
the rolling-stock was brought from the
United States. The roads are surveyed
and built by Brazilian engineers almost
wholly. They sometimes suffer con-
siderable damage and obstruction from
freshets. Picture, however, territory
as large as all that part of the United
States lying east of the Rocky Mount
aims only supplied with as many miles
of railroad as are to be found in the
State of Massachusetts, and YOU will
perceive how very limited as vet is the

Diphtheria i'm the Milk Can.

The dangers to which jewellers in
towns and cities are sometimes exposed
in consequence of the gross carelessness
or ignorance of their country providers,
is strikingly shown by a recent outbreak
of genuine diphtheria in Hendon, En-
gland. Fifteen residents were violently
attacked the same day. On investiga-
ton it appeared that all of them had
milk of the same dealer. and that there
was no other cases of the disease in the
town, excepting among those. supplied
from this dairy. On pushing the inquiry
further it was found, not that there was
diphtheria in the family of the milk.

with water from foul and dirty stream
that ran by the house and yard. and a
microscopic examination of the water
revealed the presence of living organ.
isms supposed to be the cause of diph-
liberia in general. Theperson who could
use such water for such purpose and
call it washing milk cans, was respon-
sible for all the suffering and danger
that came of it. This is said to be the
first time, at least in England, that this
disease has been directly and unmistak-
ably traced to infection by milk, al.
though there has before been good rc:s-
son to suspect it--M. Y. Tyitu:H.

the cypress and red wood, are generally
cut at distance up the trunk high
enough to overcome the Dubious nature
of the base. In regard to the temporal
ture in the timbers, it is curious fact
that, while chopper would hardly
ever think of building a fire near his
work to keep him warm. he frequently
builds one to keep his AK warm. A

be overcome by coaxing and keeping

breeze or some slight sLock topples
them over. The two gaps o I either side
meet in straight line. To the novice
there are many strange things within
the province of an ay. In clearing q
piece of farm land it is frequently a
stipulation that the chopper shall
bucket his stumps to hold pail of
water; in other words, to leave a con-
cave bowl on their tops to catch rain
water and rot them. In the pinerias the
AK is used for nearly, every purpose for
which cutting tool is required. With
it the chopper trims his ..bcot-
packs" cuts lacing thongs, ...bucketsn
horse and cattle feed-boxes, pins up his
sheds, shanties and outhouses. con-
structs his hobs and 'go-devils,'' and
even whit ties his toothpicks. He gut
tiers chips for drinking-cups, likes
tobacco for his pipe, throws flying
bridges over winter streams, whites out
the checkers for his evenings amuse-
ment, and carves the checker-board. In
a word. it is part and parcel of him
self, and its song is the music of life to
his ear.
After leaving the pineries the ak has .
long ramble to new life upon the Pa
eific slope. In California, on the coast
range, it enters the famous red-woOds,

mering.

A recent addition to the Newsboys'
Home, on Sixth street, is a bright-look-
ing lad, who halls from Syracuse, n.
Y, and glories in the name of Michael
Connolly. Michael is probably among
the most remarkable whistlers of the
age. He whistles every time he opens
his mouth to speak, and frequently is
compelled to whistle after every word
he utters. at Just seems like I'd bust
if l don't whistle" he remarked to a
Record reporter yesterday afternoon,
and he whistled no less than four times
in saying it. The lad is a professional
itinerant bootblack, who has seen the
country from Chicago TO Boston, and
knows all the smart ways of his genus.
He was taught to whistle as cure for
a most aggravating case of suffering.
So violent were the attacks that Michael
would be thrown into commissions when
he attempted To speak; and he declares
that several times he was nearly stran-
gled TO death in making efforts to talk.
One day two years ago a friendly Gus
toner suggested that he should whistle
before he attempted to speak, and see
how far that would relieve him. The
boy tried the whistling cure, and the
effect was so gratifying, and afforded
such relief, that he adopted the prac-
tice, and continued it until it became
habit. His suffering has almost en-
tirely disappeared, but the result has
been that he cannot begin to frame a
sentence until he has relieved himself
by soft, low whistle, which is repeated
every few seconds. If he says ''Thank
you, SIR" he whistles three times, once
before, once in the middle, and once at
the end of the sentence. PHILADELPHIA
