The Dog which Climbed a. Ladder.

An unheard-of feat by dog, which
would seem incredible if not vouched
for by several witnesses, occurred re-
Gently at 1920 Pacific street. Arthur
w. Moore, the occupant of the premis-
es, is having the house painted, and for
the purpose of gaining access to the
roof a ladder twenty-four feet in length
was placed against the side of the
dwelling. Mr.. Moore is also the owner
of a dog, of which he is now extremely
proud. The painters had assembled the
ladder, when the animal, who is of So
ciable disposition, determined to seek
their society. There was no way of
carrying this project into execution ex-
cept by taking to the ladder, which the
dog at once proceeded to do. Those
who witnessed the undertaking say that
he dragged himself up the perilous pas
sage by hanging on the rounds with the
joints of his fore legs, supporting his
weight with his hind legs against the
lower rungs. Once the roof attained,
the animal made his way up the steep
incline to the peak, where he made his
presence known by licking an uncon-
scious painter, who was so frightened
that he nearly lost his balance. and was
in imminent danger of falling to the
ground beneath. When the painter re-
gained his balance of body and equa-
nimity of mind, he at once clutched the
friendly brute and descended with him
to the ground, where the ladder-climb-
ing quadruped was received with spon-
taneous expressions of admiration. San

A Heinous Crime.

"Will you send policeman to drive
away IN organ -grinder?'a servant from
Il Fifth avenue house asked of a justice
in Yorkville police court.
Cant you drive him away without a
policeman's help?'' the justice asked.
'.It is a woman, sir, and she won t
bulge an inch"
The policeman was sent. A middle
aged woman was sitting beside a low
cart, in one end of which was hand
organ, while two infants were sleeping
on pillows in the other end. The wo-
man muttered angrily when the police
man addressed her, and moved slowly
away. A young woman across the
street beckoned to the policeman and
said: 81 am the nurse here, and the lady
inside is dangerously i'll. The organ
grinders seem determined to murder
her. Yesterday we were obliged to fee
not less than dozen before they would
move away, and we haven't had quiet
minute to-day. When this woman came
we concluded it was useless to hire
them to leave, for one departed to make
room for another,
''This is no new experience of mine" :"
the nurse added, Il have had no end
of trouble with Organ-grinders. There
seems to be an association of them in
this city, and they make it their busi-
ness to biackmail the sick in this way.
In cases Of nervous trouble, where per-
feet quiet is necessary, they often reap
a rich harvest. "-NeaO York. SIN.

They We're Poor.

An exchange recalls the following
historical facts, which should encourage
young men struggling under discour-
agement and poverty:
John Adams, second President, was
the son of farmer of very moderate
means. The only start he had was his
education.
Andrew Jackson was born in log
hut in the pine woods, for which that
State is so famous.
James K. Polk spent the earlier years
of his life helping to dig his living out
of new farm in North Carolina. He
was afterwards clerk in country
store.
Millard Fillmore was the son of a
New York farmer, and his house was a
very humble one. He learned the bus
mess of clothier.
James Buchanan was born in small
town among the Allegheny Mountains.
His father cut the logs and built his
own house in what was then wilder
ness.
Abraham Lincoln was the son of a
very poor kentucky farmer, and lived
in a log cabin until he was 21 years of
age.
Andrew johnson was apprenticed to
tailor at the age of 10 years by his
widowed mother. He was never able
to attend school, and picked up all the
education he ever got.

Frank Frayne's Rife.
ne Weapon With Which Miss Won Behren Y

ne Weapon With Which Miss Won Behren was
Killed Declar ed TO Have Been Badly Neglected.
When Frank Frayne, the actor who
shot Miss Won Behren at the Coliseum
theatre Thanksgiving day, was acquit-
ted by Judge Higley in the police court
he stepped into the office of the chief of
police. There he met Sergt. Bennin-
ger, whose duty it had been to arrest
him, and to him he gave the fatal rifle,
with the remark that he appreciated the
officers kindness and deiicacy, and
wished him to keep it as memorial of
the sad occasion. The sergeant has re-
Gently had the gun examined by John
Ginter, turnkey at Bremen street sta
ton, and an old and experienced gun
smith, and it was found to be in q
very bad condition, and much in need
of repairs. 1t will he remembered that
at the coroners inquest Mr.. Frayne
swOre that few minutes before he fired
the deadly shot he examined the weap-
on. finding it in good condition.
The turnkey discovered that the lever
screw, or the screw uniting the barrel
to the stock, and upon which it turns
like q pivot, was very much worn and
bent. So long had it been used that the
head was almost smooth, SO that the
screw driver could scarcely be held in
it. This little bit of steel is about two
inches long, and when taken out it is
SO bent that it is arched. Ginter says
that if the spring which broke, causing
the terrible accident, was in the same
neglected condition, the only wonder is
that the slip did not take place long be-
fore. He is of the opinion that when
the screw is in place if the curve were
up it would place the barrel in such a
position as to render the catching of it
by the spring an impossibility, thus de-
,fecting the barrel from straight line
with the stock, and in the effort to press
it into place the spring might have
been broken, or at least strained. Not
only is the screw out of order, but the
needle which is driven forward by the
trigger, discharging the gun, strikes, as
1t should strike the cap of the cartridge
fair in the center, but instead of so do
ing it hits it on the side.
In reply to the question as to what
he intended to do with the rifle, Sergt.
Benninger said that he would have it
sent to a locksmith, put in thorough
good order, and instead of keeping it as
a curiosity would put it to a practical
use in hunting and target shooting. He
takes great deal of pride in the weap-
on, and loves to linger on the tragic de-
tails of the story when he tells how it
came in his possession. When the lev
er screw and spring are renewed, he
thinks he will have as good q gun as
there is in the country, i'll spite of its
six years theatrical service Cincin-

A Glimpse Of Sorosis.

SoroSls, says writer in the Brook.
lyn Eagle, had dinner on Monday. at
Delmonico's, and the members discuss
ed the Langtry matter. Mrs Jennie
June presided, and was warm defen-
der OF Mrs. Langtry as beauty. as an
actress, and as an estimable lady. Sew
eral friends of Miss Emily Faithful
were inclined to partisan support OF
the noted reformer, whose protege in
the Langtry company is Miss Pattison,
an alleged sufferer from the stars poll
cy of subordinating every person on the
stage to her own conspicuousness. Miss
Faithful was reported as condemning
this in Mrs. Langtry, but as defending
her against calumny. Indeed, it was
greatly to the credit of Sorosis that not
an ounce of mud was thrown, and the
more so as the members are women
who are accustomed to speak right out
IN meeting, or anywhere else. Some
OF them are at times startlingly uncon-
ventional. For example, the one who
gave the above particulars, on the eve
ming after the gathering, has q name
that would be recognized by most read
ers were l to give it. AS to her iden-
tity, will only say, since l have men
TONED the president of SorOsis, that she
was not Mrs. Croly. She received me
in the parlor of her handsome residence,
and was presented by her husband.
Do you drink whisky?" was her
first utterance.
''Once a year." faltered, 'and I've
already had my drink for 1892
''Well, [ want some whisky and Wa
ter before | open my mouth for any
thing else,' and she rang bell. II
am chilled from my knees 10 my heels.
You will excuse me, won't you, if l slip
off my shoes?" Here she unshod her
self and put her feet to the blazing
CRATE, as she addressed a negro waiter,
who responded to her ring. Give me
some whisky and water. Bring them
separately, for | want to know what [
am drinking"
Now, this woman was undeniably I'M
trammeled by social CUSTOM, as l
couldn't t help thinking while she slipped
her toddy and chatted and yet nobody
would dare to breathe whisper against
her reputation. What if Mrs. Langtry
would receive caller in such fash
ion?

An Editor Who Was Down on Poetry.

$50 you don't publish poetry in your
paper, colonel said an acquaintance
to an Arkansaw editor.
mo. sir; l stopped some time ago,
but at one time my paper was known
for its poetic contributions. l had one
contributor whose work ranked with the
best in the country. His sentiment was
pure and his diction perfect. 1 had
never seen him, and he became so pop
ular that at the request of my wife l in
vited him to visit us. There was nothing
particularly striking in his appearance,
but his eyes had a dreamy, linger-
ing expression that greatly pleased my
wife,
''Didn't you like him?" asked the ac-
quaintance when the colonel paused.
Liked him well enough at first, but
he insulted me.'
"Hoy?"
"Why, sir, the second night after his
arrival he got up while l was asleep and
stole my Sunday breeches. Since then

A Pullman sleeping car, on an En-
glish railroad caught fire one recent
night, and when the engineer was sig
nailed to stop he could not do so because
the printed rules would not permit him
to. Several passengers were injured,
some of them even unto death. Still,
we can but repeat the hope that with
10000, 900 American newspapers pour
ing annually into England the people in
the old country will begin to know
something one of these DAYS.

The Cigarette Young Man Talks.

A cigarette young man writes to the
Philadelphia Times about the girls: '.As
for their not kissing fellow because he
smokes cigarettes, let me give as my
opinion that the girls are about as
ready and eager to kiss a good-looking
young man, cigarette or no cigarette,
as the young man is to have then If
the young men would stop the kissing
until allowed to smoke anything, from
rank pipe to a first-class cigar, they
would not have to wait very long until
the girls would say: Smoke, do any
thing bad you choose, only kiss u.s."

A Oueer Conceit.

Years ago an old gentleman, walking
on the pier at Dover, England, dropped
his gold-headed cane through one of
the holes locally known as tree nail
holes, in the plank. Indignant and dis
gusted at his loss, he bequeathed sum
of money to pay for annually stopping
these holes, the overplus to be laid out
in dinner to the corporation. An an
nual dinner consequently takes place,
and before the party break up they GER
tify that the holes have been duly at
tended to,
