He'd Scoop a Little.

About the time that Daniel Drew be-
gan his Wall street career he was up
the country one time to visit some
friends, and two farmers called upon
him to decide case One had sold the
other five bushels of wheat, and pro-
posed to measure it in a half bushel,
and sweep the top Of the. measureswith
stick. The other objected, and Uucle
Daniel was asked to decide & Esss
':Well, legally speaking. q bushel is
only a bushel,' he answered. sI
'sAnd can the measure be swept Off
II think it can"
"What with?''
"Well, if was selling wheat should
probably use half the head of a flour
barrel"
(Which edge of it?''
Gentlemen, that is point cannot
now decide on sighed the old man.
eff I was selling to a widow or a preach
er I am certain that | should sweep the
measure with the straight edge, but if /
was selling to man who pastures his
cows in the road and his pigs in his
neighbours corn, I'm afraidI should use
the circular side, and scoop little to
boot. "-Wdy Street Daily Ne,0s.

Colorado's Reading Clerk.

He has beautiful voice, as big rs a
giants thigh, as smooth as molasses, as
sweet as a maiden's kiss and as reson-
ant as a snare drum. Whenever he
whispers the people in the next county
think it's laundering, and they hustle
around for their gum coats and umbrel-
las. Up at Leadville they use him on
holidays instead of cannon and anvils,
and fishing parties have better success
with him than with giant powder. Let

The origin Of the term ':catch-penny'
is said to be that after the execution in
London of one Weare for murder, a
publisher named Catchpin printed a
penny ballad entitled, Eve are alive
again = When cried on the streets it
sold to the extent Of $500, 900 copies,
the persons buying supposing from the
sound the ballad had reference to
Weare. It came therefore to be spoken
of as sscatch- penny affair,

San Francisco, July % John A. Kim
ball, the young man formerly postal
clerk, who was indicted recently by 5he
grand jury and tried and convicted of
forging or aiding to forge the name of
Mrs Sarah A. White as an Endorsement
on a bank chock, was sentenced by Su-
perior Judge d. j. Toohy this morning,
in department No. Il, to imprisonment
in San Quentin Tor the term of i've
years.
The judge, in passing sentence, said
that he had seldom been so interested
in trial and SO moved in sentencing a
prisoner, as in this case. He said that
he had long known his father, General
Nathan A. Kimbal OF Utah brave
soldier, ana for many years an honored
public servant He had watched the
career Of the young man, and had seen
with regret his downward course. He
commented on the sad state of social
life in which a young man of good
stock, with the best advantages, should
come to be sentenced for his crimes.
Kimball listened quietly to the remarks
of the judge and at their close was
taken back to the county jail. The
other indictment of forgery against him
win be abandoned, and it is believed
that the indictments found against him
by the United States Grand Jury for
robbing the mails will not be prosecuted
as at first thought, at the close of his
term of sentence.

NAN FEAN'iaoo, duiy 22--In regard to
tie evil service examinations which ara
&" ba hr.Lm this city ou August 18Th
next. John Patterson. one oftLe exam
liners. Iu conversation yesterday stated
JHat t-e system which has been adopted
Iy the examiners here will not be opcn
t. tie objection which Las been brought
against ~uI4e Of the eastern cAamiua-
t.'As. The hsts Of questions viii be
uaCc up the night before the ezamina-
uuH, 50 that there can ba uo possibility
oi an applicant getting an idea of the
nature al tie questions 70 be answered.
All applicants are required to furnish a
certificate Of good moral character,
signed by one or more reputable citi
z-us. y long list OF references do not
Aeip an applicant, and no letters or
other documents are accepted. It Is
held by the examiners that anyone ap-
plying TO enter this contest ought to be
able to furnish one good reference as a
voucher of responsibility.
The main feature of the new civil
service rules Is this: That it takes from
tie collector or naval officers or other
Official the power to ill vacancies from
the ranks oi the political workers. Out
side of a very few positions these officers
must be guided il their choice of men to
hli vacant places by the civil service
system. hen vacancy occurs, say in
the Collectors Office, lie must select d
man to fill it from the four applicants
who have passed the best examinations
and received the highest percentage.
Their names are on file and are fur
nished to him, and he cannot go outside
OF this. It viii be readily seen that this
rule strikes at one of the worst abuses
IL Office the retirement of employees
who have lost their powerful backing to
give their places to the favomtes Of
Congressman vino have done political
dirty work IN the hope of getting office.
There viii, therefore, be no object in
the head of Il department turning out
any subordinate, except for cause, be-
cause he cannot favor political friend
by appointing one Of his friends to
Office. In this way, too, should va
cancy III a $2400 cierkshIp occur by
death or other cause, the Collectors in
terest will be TO see to it that the next
best man in the department receives the
place. Thus system OF promotion for
meritOrious service Will be instituted,
and efficient men viii not have the msr-
titication OF seeing politicians or per-
sonal friends OF politicians placed over
them. The newcomers will enter at
the foot and work up through the va
rioUs grades, instead OF owing their
places to favoTitjsm or influence.

THE ELEMENTS OF SUCCESS IN
LTFE-

Now, young gentlemen, let me for q
moment address you touching your sue
cess in life; and hope the brovity of
my remarks viii increase the chance of
their making lodgment in your minds.
Let me beg you, in the outset of your
career, to dismiss from ycur minds al
idea Of success by luck. There is no
more common thought among young
people than that foolish one that by and
by something win turn up by which
they VIII suddenly dchievo fame or fort
une. No, young gentlemen things
don't turn mp in this world unless some
body tur::s them up. Inertia is one of
the Indispensable laws of matter, and
things lie flat where they arc until by
some intelligent spirit Qor nothing but
spirit makes motion in this world) they
are endowed with activity and life. Do
not dream that some good luck is going
to happen to you and give you fortune.
Lack Is an ignis fatuus. You may fol-
low it to ruin, but not to SUCCESS. The
great Napoleon, who believed in his
destiny, followed 1t until he saw his star
go down night, when the Old
Guard F. .ld him, and Water
loo was | ,nd of pluck is worth
q ton of luc..
Young men talk of trusting to the spur
of the occasion. That trust is vain.
Occasions cannot wear spurs, young
gentlemen. If you expect to make
spurs, you must win them. If you wish
TO use them, you must buckle them to
your own heels before you go into the
fight. ANY success you may achieve is
not worth having unless you fight for it.
Whatever you win in life, you must con-
quer by your own efforts, and then it is
yours-a part of yourself.
Again in order to have any success
in life, or any worthy success, you must
1qsolve to carry into your work a full
ness OF acknowledgement merely Il sufi-
cheney, but more than sufficiency. In
this respect follow the rule of the ma
chinist. Ii they want machine to do
the work of six holses, they give it nine
horse power, SO that they may have a
reserve Of three. To carry on the busi-
ness of life you must have surplus pow
Ell. Be fit for more than the thing you
are now doing. Let every one know
that you have a reserve in yourself
that you have more power than you are
now using. If you are not too large for
the place you occupy, you are too small
for it.-Jan1es 4, Garfield.

ANOTHER KIND OF DOCTOR'S SHOP
Old Bill McGammon, who keeps a
grocery store In the suburbs of Austin,
is one of the closest men in the State Of
Texas, and he abbreviates his words in
writing He abbreviated the names ON
the drawers and boxes OF contents in his
grocery, instead of painting the names
in fall. For instance. he painted on
the sugar barrel ''Br. Sugar." for brown
sugar, and so on.
One day a feebIe-looking stranger
dropped into McGammon's store, and,
after looking around, said:
"Is DR.. Prunes in?"
Old McGammon stared, ard said he
reckoned not.
"Is DIR. Goldfish in, then ?" asked the
stranger.
"No, he is not" said old McGam-
mon, emphatically.
Then tell Dr. Cherries I would like
to see him if he is at leisure"
"You get out of here. l believe you
have escaped from the iunatic asylum.

getting red IN the face.

President Wizards Excursion.

HELENA, Sept. THE Willard
train left Livingston this morning,
and made the ascent efthe Belt range
of mountains in perfect safety, the
sections being subdivided and three
locomotives attached to each. The
distance of five miles is almost u loop,
and the grade is 217 feet to the mile
at this point. The Bozeman tunnel
which is being constructed will OBJ
viate the necessity of this difficult
and expensive lift. From the uln-
NIT the descent is made into the Gal
latin Valley, which has a rich soil
easily cultivated by irrigation. It has
Il length of over thirty miles and an
average width of twelve miles, The
heighth above sea is about
the same as Salt Lake, and the
agricultural productions are similar
at Bezeman. There was a fine dis
play of minerals, coal and agriculture
al products. A handsome reception
vas given President Willard and
quests, with the usual speeches and
enthusiasm. The Upper Missouri
valley is similar to the Gallatin. The
first Two sections crossed the Mullan
pass OF the Rocky Mountains this
evening. The other two s~ectious
will follow in the morning, when
the ceremony OF driving the last spike
will take place.

A Remote Conflict.

John Roach occupies a prominent
position in relation to the ship build
ing interests of the nation, and his
broad shoulders are made to bear the
weight of every agitation in the di-
rection ola naval construction boom.
The latest attributed to the great
ship-builder is the story started by
the Chicago papers of the danger of
a war between the United States and
England through British Columbian
aud Alaskan complications, in which
it is declared that either the United
States or England must possess both
of those glacier regions. England
will not surrender British Columbia,
and this country will never loose her
hold upon Alaska: therefore war
must ensue, but with great consider
alton the era of %bloodshed is placed
in the remote future. In the mean
time, however, the nation is admon-
ished to strengthen its navy, as the
only means of safety against British
power on the high seas, in this ire
motely imminent' conflict.

PRESIDENTIAL ABSENTEES.

Some newspaper writer has been
figuring how long each president of
this country has absented himself
from the executive mansion during
his term of office with the following
result: "A careful collection of facts
in regard to the absence of presidents
from the seat of government during
their respective terms of Office, shows
that Jefferson was the champion alb
sentee. He scored 796 days in eight
years. The elder Adams came next,
3S5 days in four years. Next came
Monroe, 7OS days in eight years, fol-
lowed by Madison, es7 days in eight
years; John Quincy Adams, 222 in
four years, Washington, ISL in eight
years. The presidents who virtually
took mo vacations were jackson, 81
days; Pierce and Buchanan, 81 days
each; and Lincoln, who can hardly
be said to have left the capital dur
ing all those bloody four years. None
of them eve went into the wilder
ness as Arthur is doing, but it is to
be remembered that he came from a
great city which is no place for sum-
mel sauntering, while all our other
presidents came from the country, or
small cities, mere villages as COM
pared with New York. A president
should have the same freedom of
choice as to his play spell as any
other man."
