Plumbers.

When Potts began his married life,
the watchword engraved on his memory
was, Beware of the plumber. The
awful destinies of numbers of friends,
who had foolishly been inveigled into
poverty and distress by this fiend,
doomed up before his eyes, continually
reminding him of his motto, until he
grew to consider himself public bene-
factor in endeavoring to suppress this
inhuman monster.
But in an evil hour, during the
family's absence in the country, the
wash-boiler began to leak and the
plumber glided in through the base
ment door. From that time the house
seemed bewitched.
Two days afterward the hot water
pipe blew his range to atoms and the
servant to glory, the boiler began to
leak at every conceivable point; and,
after the second story basin had been
overfowed two days in succession, the
parlor ceiling reminded one of a col
ander, with ancient frescoing between
the holes. These repairs had scarcely
been completed when the tank on the
roof began to fill and resisted all Potts
efforts to turn off the water, and six
hours steady running very materially
increased the damage. The plumber
was then engaged regularly for three
days in the week, and the adjoining
house hired to be used for the storage
of lead pipe, tools, etc, which were
bought by the cargo. During the first
week of the plumbers engagement,
every faucet in both houses began leak
ing badly, and all the basins were
stopped up twice day, and the third
week Potts was compelled to put wire
screens in all the windows of his bed
rooms to prevent, the occupants float
ing out during the night.
In the midst of these entertainments
the plumber reminded him that lead
was rising, owing to so much being used
for counterfeit money purposes. And
three months from the time of the
plumbers first appearance he owned
and resided in the house, while Potts
lived in the garnet and worked as helper
to him, half his wages each week being
forfeited to pay off the balance of his
bill.

The Reauty Of Coal.

Lyell, in his experiments with coal,
remarks "that after cutting slice SO
thin that it should transmit light, it
was found that in many parts of the
pure and solid coal, in which biologists
had no suspicion that they should be
able to detect any vegetable structure,
not only were annular rings of the
growth Of several kinds of trees beauti-
fully distinct, but even the medullary
rays, and, what is still more remarka-
BILE, in some cases even the spiral YES
sells could be discerned." Again in an
other place, "the high state of preserva-
ton in which many of the objects occur,
the perfect condition of the leaves, and
other parts of many of the ferns, the
preservation of the sharp angles of
numerous stems and plants known to be
of soft and juicy nature, with the sur
faces of the Sigillari9, especially
marked with lines, streaks and fittings
so delicate that the mere drifting of O
day would have inevitably destroyed
them, together with the occurrence Of
certain fruits which are found In heaps
and clusters, together with many other
facts of like nature and leading to SINH
lar conclusions, convince us that these
objects have never been subjected to
drift, but were buried on the spots
where they lived and fourished. We
quote these evidences OF the perfect
preservation of fragile plants and of
fruits of a remote age as an important
reason why further inquiry as to its
cause should be made. If these plants
and fruits were suddenly immersed in q
fluid which excluded air and preserved
them while becoming solid, it is an
alogous to the preservation of plants
and insects in gum copal, and does not
require unusual arguments to obtain be-
lief. The presence of trees standing
upright where they grew and imbedded
in coal also suggests probability of
immersion in the same way. The
recent discoveries of immense deposits
of petroleum in subterranean vities
or streams suggests the theory which is
here offered-that this mineral oil, as
it was first called, may be the origin of
coal and not its product.

There is q mistaken notion in the
East that the Chinese are always hum
bic and submissive, and much put upon
and abused by the whites of the Pacific
coast. There was time when the
hoodlums Of Gan Francisco maltreated
the Asiatic immigrants shamefully, but
that time has gone by. Now the Chi
naman appears to be as secure in his
rights of person and property as any
body. Instead of being deferentil and
timid he is eften pushing and insolent.
He does not give way in the street. He
hustles you as rudely as an English
NAVY. A body of Chinese laborers
marching down narrow street will
crowd ladies into the gutter. The Chi
nese merchants, doctors, and others be-
longing to the better classes, are as po-
lite as Frenchmen, but the masses of
the Chinese population on the Pacific
coast are rude and brutal. The chief
thing in their favor is their habit of per-
sonal cleanliness. The railroad labor
ers, who are the poorest and most ig-
norant class, wash themselves from head
to foot at the end of each days work.
All classes are frequent customers of
the barber, who gives minute attention
to their heads, faces, ears and necks.
Among tho common laborers there is
little sympathy for sick and injured
comrades. If man is likely to be-
como burden, the other members of
his gang want to get rid of him as soon
as possible. 1t is commonly believed
by the white bosses on the railways
that the Chinese doctors put sick
men out of the way by poison when
they think they cannot be speedily
cured. A case was told me in Ore
gon of Coolie railway hborer who had
an arm broken. 1t was set by the COM
pany's doctor, and was doing well, but
the mans comrades insisted on bring
ing Chinese doctor to attend him.
The doctor came from distant camp
and gave the patient a dose. In an
hour the poor fellow was dead. In
such cases there is no investigation ;
nobody cares that there is one China
man less. The death of a cart-horse is
of much more consequential. y.

The Bear Not i'm Winter Society.

Like the hedgehog, the bear depends
entirely upon its accumulation of fat,
and during the fall is in prime con-
dition, when, in October or November,
it enters upon its winter home. One of
these nests of the black bear, found by
the writer several miles from Lake
Utowana, in the Adirondacks, was be-
meath a huge tree, four or five of whose
great roots branched out on each side.
The earth had been removed on the
south side, the interior lined with leaves,
twigs and other refuse matter that
would make comfortable bed, Sud,
covered with snow in dense jungle,
the animal had perfect security. Soon
after the bear has retired the intestines
shrink and become clogged or hardened
with substance known as tappan, in
reality pine leaves and the bark of fir
trees that they eat Immediately prior to
entering upon the state of Information,
that remains in position until spring,
and so slow is the exhaustion of fat,
that is now the food-supply, that
animals have been found five months
after their involuntary intombment as
fat as when they went in. During the
sleep the skin upon the balls of the
feet is renewed. The males of the
polar bear do not hibernate, fact
proved by the late polar expedition of
the yacht Ezra.

A Transcendentalist.

A good many hypochondriacs have
probably as much ground for their
fears as the Boston gentleman who was
much disturbed mornings on going
down town to find that one of his legs
had suddenly become shorter than the
other. Every time he took step on
that side his body experienced an un-
pleasant shock from a fall of about an
eighth of an inch, and whenever his adj
vance was assisted by the employment
of the other leg he felt himself rising an
equal distance into the air. His walk,
therefore, consisted of series of wavy
undulations, which, however graceful
and picturesque in themselves, were ex-
tremely disquieting under the circum-
stances. Thoroughly alarmed by these
singular phenomena, he visited doctor,
and, describing his symptoms, earnestly
asked whether paralysis did not some
times give warning of its approach by
such contraction of the limbs. The
doctor confessed that it did, and, while
the doomed man perspired with appre-
hension, instituted vigorous examin-
alton, the result of which was to show
that the cause of the complaint was an
inequality in the thickness of the soles
of the boots that were worn by the
patient. On getting up in the morning
he had dressed himself hurriedly, and,
while he had drawn thin dress boot
on one foot, he had equipped the other
with covering which not only had q
heavy double sole, but thick felt in
sole also The physician then hurriedly
stated that contraction of the limbs was
not an essential precursor of the par
alytic shock.

An Artists Model Who Had Seen Life.

An artist of my acquaintance was
searching for q model in the streets of
New York. Crossing Union Square, he
saw the very type of face he required.
The owner of the face was seated on
one of the benches in an attitude of
cheerful expectancy The artist &C
costed the old man and asked if he
would pose. He readily consented,
went to the studio at the appointed time,
was employed, gave satisfaction, and
became sort Of retainer at the studio.
His massive white head and large white
beard met with favor in aesthetic circles.
By degrees, items of his personal history
came to light He had been a gold
digger in California in the early days of
the mining excitement. He claimed to
have experienced fifteen shipwrecks in
the capacity of sea Captain. Left an
orphan at an early age, he had been
educated by q physician, and had
acquired some knowledge of medicine.
Fate threw him among the Indians Of
the far West, presumably on his way
from the gold-diggings, and he became
q medicine-man. He was learned In
natural philosophy, and possessed a
meteorological cabinet and also sin
gular collection of roots, each twisted
by nature into the shape of one of the
letters of the alphabet. He painted
shells skillfully, and had an ambition to
go round the world in a canoe. This
remarkable person also wrote poetry
and was a Yankee. 1t needed only a
master-brush to make this same repre-
sentative Yankee as classic as Millet
peasant.-Charlotte adams, IN, the
Century.

Elephants Not So Large.

While the elephant is the largest
beast known to the world, its size has
been greatly exaggerated. Ten feet is
good height for one of the brutes, and
a twelve-foot elephant is big one.
Jumbo, the notorious, is about seven
teen feet high, and still growing"
These quadrupeds reach between 70
and so years of age before they die, but
there are instances of elephants living
for over 200 years.-Cinci,anaH En-
