Warning for Girls.

there is one lesson which girls of all
classes will do well to learn as soon as
possible. It is that they cannot afford to
make "acquaintances" by correspond
ence, or to meet, 60 out with, or in fact
have anything whatever to do with men
about whose character and antecedents
they know nothing The would-be
mashers who get up Hirtations on street
cars, or write ambiguous letters to work,
ing girls who advertise for situations, are
invariably shiftless and despisable set.
Not only are they worthless for company
but they are also as "scant on" for money
as they are for brains. Girls will con-
suit their self-respect and happiness by
giving them wide berth. There are
plenty of desirable young men left in
the world whose acquaintance can be
made under proper Safeguards. Another
indication which girls would do well TO
make a note of is The newspaper columns
of outrages upon defenceless women. II
young woman will persist in taking
lonely walks, or holding the fort at home
while the family are away, she should
arm herself and learn all the arts of self.
defense. In these cases it too often hap
pens that Providence is upon the side of
the heaviest bat.allions." Her great les
son to learn is that physically at least
she is weaker vessel"

TOO AFPECTIONATE FOR GRANT.
The General Tells a Man Who Squeezed

McKean County Miner.

The General Tells Man Who Squeezed
His Hand that He Is no Gentleman.
Mexican County Miner.
While General Grant was undergoing
demonstration on the part of the mob
at Bradford last Friday he met an un-
pleasant incident which will no doubt
cause him to remember Bradford with
anything but feeling of pleasure.
Among the mob pressing forward to
shake hands with him was burly, pow
erful man with stub thumb on his
right hand, by means of which he makes
the grip of his hand very painful. 1t is
one OF his pleasant tricks to cause any
one with whom he shakes hands to howl
with pain. He thought it would be very
funny to try his favorite trick on Grant
and did 30.
The General was not expecting any
such expression of hospitality. The eriI
was as Intensely painful as II was unex.
pected. His face flushed and it was
with difficulty that he could refrain from
crying out. but he did, and simply re-
marked to the smart Aleck :" "You
are no gentleman, sir"-as truthful re-
mark as he ever made. 1t is said that il
the railing of the car had not been in
the way he would have kicked the man
in the face. At all events he did lao
more hand-shakins with the psblic, and
was no doubt pleased to escape any fur
ther expressions of Bradford's hospi.

"There was a party of southern gen

shot q the rest of them"

any stage"
"The Yankees always felt that way,

,"Yes and we stood up there and taking
dsedly aim at each other, pulled trigger,
and my gun snapped while the Colonel's
shot took me square in the back ofa hog

Why General sheridan Walks.
Washington Post

General Sheridan never wants a car
riage for himself. He never uses one in
Washington If he can avoid it. If the
day is day is fine he walks. If not, he
rides in a street car When his war
horse, Winchester, died few years ago
his love for horse flesh vent out of
him. A gentleman who knew him in
boyhood says that the first time Sheridan
ever bestrode horse was when another
boy put him on q 6eYy colt, unsaddled
and unbridled, and told him 10 bold on
by his knees. The animal ealloped
scroee the country for several miles and
then came 10 halt, and Sheridan was
still holding on.

the members unanimously agreed that

Philadelphians have discovered that
the English sparrow when fat, and they
are always fat in the fall, is good food.
This encourages the hope that this city

While J. Lowry Johnston and William

out hunting rabbits they came across the
tracks of large black bear in the wood
lot Of Mr.. johnson, and, following the
trail, soon got near, Bruln, who. was
quietly sneakiugaway. johnson got the
first shot and sent a bullet through the
bears fore-shoulder and lungs. The
hear then made of and led the hunters
chase Of from three 10 four miles,
across the fields and through the woods
The trail was easily followed By the
blood and tracks. Finally, on Fairman's
hill, not more than q mile and half
from Johnston's farm in direct line.
Mr.. Adams succeeded in getting q shot
at short range and sent bullet through
the bears heart. This ended his career.
The bear weighed about four hundred
pounds and measured six feet from the
tip of his nose to his abbreviatedltail.
