The Emancipation Proclamation.

The Lowell Times says: On the even
ing of the day on which President Lin
coins emancipation proclamation was
issued at Washington a copy thereof
came by telegraph to the Boston Journal
office, and on the same evening a meet
ing of Free Sellers had assembled in
fremont Temple. While the night
editor of the Journal was engaged in
preparing the dispatch for transmission
to the composing room, Judge Thomas
Russell entered the editorial sanctum,
all out of breath, and inquired as to the
the truth OF such a proclamation having
been promulgated by the President, and
was shown the dispatch sheets on which
it was written. He begged the loan of
them for quarter of an hour, but this
was refused as being against all rule.
The Judge then seized them and ran
with all speed from the editorial room,
followed by the night editor in pursuit,
but was not caught. He reached the
platform of the fremont Temple, in
terrupted the speaking, and read the
proclamation, when scene of excite
ment followed which baffied description.
Some talk was had about the proprietor
of the Journal (Col. Charles o. Rogers)
having Judge Russell arrested for theft,
but this did not take place. This was
the first time that proclamation was
read in Boston.

Out on a Buffalo Hunt.

Says an English writer of a book of
adventures in North America: Some
ten or fifteen years ago, when Kansas
was the home of the bison, a young man
from one of the Eastern States went to
Wichita, and set out from there on n
buffalo hunt with a party of hunters.
There were seven of them altogether,
and they took with them a supply OF
provisions and keg of whisky. Soon
after they started it became very cold:
one Of those piercing 'fnorthers' began
to blow which seem able to strike
through any amount Of clothing. Nieht
WAS coming on, and the whole party
rolled themselves mp in their blankets
or butfalo-rObe5 to sleep, the hunters all
helping themselves freely to the whisky
before lying down, while the stranger
declined to take any. In the morning,
when the latter awolIe, he found that
every one of his companions we're frozen
to death. The Tough old hunters had
succumbed to the cold, while he, unused
as he was TO hardship and exposure,
though almost frozen himself, was still
alive. He managed, with the greatest
difficulty, to crawl away from the fatal
spot, and fortunately fell in with some
travellers, who took caro- OF HIM and con
veyed him back TO Wichita. NV nara.
tor told me that his friend was still
living, but that he never fully recovered
his health after that terrible experience.

On the Race Track.

The failure of Maud s. to beat her
own time at Hartford probably leaves
the trotting record of 1884 where she
set it in August. The wind which blew
across the course was alleged by her
driver to be handicap of at least four
seconds. There is, indeed, no reason to
doubt that the mare herself was in quite
as good condition as when she made
200 3-4 at Cleveland. The common
belief of horsemen that a hot day is
necessary TO elicit the greatest speed OF
trotter, if it be well founded, would
turn the chances of success in favor OF
time. The records seem to confirm that
belief. Flora Temples famous beating
of 2 20 was indeed effected day later
in the season than Maud S. s failure to
beat 200 3-4, her 2:19 "a having been
made at Kalamazoo, Oct. Is, 1859. But
each of the steps by which her record
has been lowered 10 seconds has taken
place some weeks earlier in the season.
Dexter's PIT IA was made Aug. IA,
1867. Goldsmith Maids OLA was made
Sept. 2, 1874. Rarus's 2:13 IA was
made Aug. %, 1873. st. Julien's
oil IA was made Aug. 81, 1880. Jay
Eye-See, the animal which enjoys the
unique distinction of having ''held the
record" for one day, broke it with 2:1U
Aug. 1, to have his time beaten the
next day. These facts indicate that the
record at the beginning OF September is
very likely to remain the record for the
year.

Butler and the Reporters.

The night of the serenade to Butler
six able reporters of the New York ne VS.
papers repaired to the Fifth Avenue
Hotel to write something about it.
Someone told them that the procession
and Buffers speech were due at eleven
o'clock, aud as it was then nine the boys
repaired to the basement and struck into
a game of pool TO kill time. At 10:45
they returned, and were somewhat as
tonished, not to say alarmed, to learn
that the procession had arrived, Butler
had spoken, the people had dispersed
and the candidate had gone to bed. The
San and Herald neil had been told to
report Butler i'll full; the Times wanted
half a column, and the Tribune and
World were to give him fair show. 1t
was a solemn moment for the young
journalists, but their intellects came to
their rescue. They made bolt for
Ben's room, got him up, explained, and
persuaded him to repeat the speech.
After he has concluded his eloquent and
impressive remarks the boys began to
thank him, but he interrupted, and,
shaking his foretinGer at them, said:
"Now, don't you tell the public that I
got up to repeat this speech, and l won't
tell your employers that you have been

His Face Like a Skye's.
A PLAYFUL BRowN-EYED PUPPY BOY Ar
RIvEs BY THE CITY OF CHICAGO.

A closely yelled boy, about II years
old, arrived at New York on the steam
ship City of Chicago, and was taken in a
carriage to hotel. In private room
the veil was removed, and the face of
the Russian dog-faced boy, Jo-Jo, was
disclosed to several physicians and re-
porters who had been invited to see the
curiosity. The boys face resembles a
hair covers his head, and, concealing
the forehead, extends to the eyebrows,
which are long and shaggy, and over
hang his eyes like a Skye's. Hair covers
his nose, growing thickly from the carti-
moustache growing from the bridge of
the nose. Beginning on the under eye
lids hair in masses grows downward on
the cheeks, and forms shaggy name on
either side. His chin is covered by a
short but heavy silk beard. Only the
eyes and mouth can be distinctly made
out. The expression of the eyes is pecu-
liar, and the more they were studied the
more they seem to resemble those of an
intelligent dog. They are dark brown
and very bright.
Jo-Jo has four teeth-two CANNES in
the upper jaw and two incisors in the
lower jaw. When his hair is put aside
his ears are seen to be very large, and
covered with a mating of hair. Ore of
the company put his hand suddenly on
Jo-Jo's shoulder, and the boy turned
and playfully snapped at the hand. He
speaks Russian, and has picked up some
German and English, and as he
danced about in boyi glee at escaping
from the steamship he uttered strange
jargon. Frequently his voice resembled
that of dogs growl or bark. His man
ager says that when angry 10 10 snarls
and banks. Usually he is as full of play
as puppy, and when he cannot make
himself understood by words he resorts
to pantomime.
Jo-Jo's father was equally gifted. 1t
is said that his father was ga wildman
in the forest of Kostroma, in
middle Russia" He was exhibited in
all the large cities of Europe, and died
three years ago, 50 years old. Jo-Jo
was born in st. Petersburg, and all his
life has accompanied his father. Since
his fathers death he has been exhibited
in st. Petersburg. Vienna, Paris, Lon
don, and Liverpool.

CLERKS AND DETECTIVES.
How Mercantile Employees are Shadowet
at DisrepuInbIe Resorts,

How Mercantile Employees are Swallowed
at DisrepuInble Resorts.
The sad case of Charles Carter, who
was bookkeeper il a Broadway dr.,
goods house a year ago, and who.
through his infatuation for a concer;
saloon singer, stole his EMPLOYER
money and sank to the lowest depths
of degradation, is not an uncommon
one. The various temptations heId
forth to young men at the myriad night
resorts are deadly in their effects in to,,
many instances, and this is so well I'm
derstood by employers that they adop'
every means at their command to exer-
else a certain surveillance over THEN
clerks, even out of hours of business
Many of the private detective agencies
downtown, are particularly employed
IN keeping large mercantile houses ad
v1sed OF the nocturnal ramblings of theil
employees, and many young clerk who
thinks that the friendly veil of nigh:
hides him from all observation of EN-
ployers or acquaintances, has his every
wild escapade, debauchery and extrava-
gance noted by some shadow" from al
agency.
''Why," said the superintendent of
detective firm on Broadway, one morn
ing, ''if some of those lads who FREQUENT
the saloons and dives on Sixth avenue
and the surrounding neighborhood al
night, were to know that they were con-
stantly under the eye of some man from
this office, and that a careful report is
ready to be made to their EMPLOYERS OF
every word and action of theirs during
their drunken sprees, they would think
twice before starting out to paint the
town red."
80 you keep a watch over clerks on
spree. Are you engaged by their en-
ployers ?" asked reporter.
Yes, the very instant q merchant or
other employer suspects that a trusted
bookkeeper, cashier or clerk is leading q
fast life, and it is easy enough to awake
his suspicious, he notifies this or some
similar office. The employee is shad-
owed and in a week we can tell how
much money he has spent and the char
acter of the company he keeps. Every
word and action that he thinks hidden
from the world is revealed on the pages
OF our memoranda. Consequently. q
clerk who Is hauled up by his employer
some line morning and informed to his
surprise and dismay that his services are
no longer required, or perhaps is put in
charge of an officer to answer for rob-
bing the firm, little knows that the man
he saw at the adjoining table in some
concert saloon was there especially to
watch him."

A Change of Ownership.
THE AMERICAN LINE SOLD TO THE IN
TERNATIoNAL NAVIGATION co.

THE AMERICAN LINE SOLD TO THE IN
TERNAT1oNAL NAVIGATION co.
The owners of the American Line of
steamers, between Philadelphia and
Liverpool, have sold to the International
Navigation Company the right to oper-
ate and continue the American Line.
The latter line was established and has
been maintained mainly by the influence
and credit of the Pennsylvania Raiiroa
Company. OF late years the line has
lost money, and short time ago began
negotiations with the International
Navigation Company, which controls
the Red Star Line and is mainly COM
posed of American citizens. The result
of the negotiations, which have been
made public, surrender to the Naviga-
ton Company the entire control of the
American Line. The new owners pro-
pose not only to continue the line, but
to build new steamers and largely in
crease the service.
The contract with the Navigation
Company requires the company to run
a branch of the American Line between
New York and Liverpool as well as Phil
adelphil and Liverpool. The same
steamers which now compose the Phila-
delphia and Liverpool route will con.
tinue to be run, and any new steamers
which will be built or purchased will
1un on the New York branch. The
opinion has been advanced that in order
to make the line successful it must be
run under foreign flag, but the new
owners ere confident that it can be made
a success rTTdgr the Stars and Stripes
with the title OF the american Line"
In shipping circles the change was much
talked of and success predicted. The
Navigation Company has
operated the Red Star Line SO success
fully that it has grown steadily into
public favor, and those who have
watched its growth are confident that
the American Line under its new man
agement will be financial success.
