YOUNG ENGLAND OUT WEST.
Types of Freshly Arrived Young
E~ngfishmen who Como to Grow up
with the Country.

lSan Francisco Chronicle
Among the familiar objects on the streets
OF San Francisco is a young man with a
short sack-coat OF a dull gray tweed, fitting
loosely over broad but sloping shoulders, but
30 abbreviated in the rear hat it exposes a
good deal of a baggy and illcut pair of
pantaloons Of the same material and nom
descript color. His feet are shod with stout,
low-heeled, broad-toed, laced-up shoes, gen.
orally g~uiltless of blacking, while his head is
covered with a soft, narrow-brimmed, ribbed
hat, also made OF tweed cloth. The head on
which this hat sits is usually long in the
nape, which is sunburnt and red, well
supplied with close-cropped hair. The
lace has features that are nodded on the
generous scale; a little scrap OF fluffy
whisker is grown on either cheek, and a
struggling mustache partly covers the upper
lip. He walks with a long, swinging stride,
az though he were starting on a twenty-mile
constitutional" In one hand he carries an
umbrella, In the other n transcontinental
g~uide-book, and In his mouth there rests a
briar-wood pipe. in which there smolders a
closely packed "load" Of the strongest shay
tobacco. 1t must not be understood that
this is the portrait OF an Individual; it Is
simply the pen-picture of a type. That type
is the young Englishman newly landed in
this Ablawsted" country. He is unmistakable,
and Is growing as numerous as the showers
Of his own April mornings.
Another type Of the freshly arrived and
fresh young Englishman is he who comes
with a wagon-load OF p-ortmanteaux, who
puts up" at the Palace hotel, who is in a
great furry over his ."brawsses,H as he calls
his baggage checks, who dresses in the ultra
dudesque school, who is armed with a sachel
full Of letters of introduction, and who
makes such a splurge into society that it Is
scarcely a wonder the spray soon returns
heavily upon him and hides him out Of sight.
The first Is in all probability a farmers
son from the midland counties OF England,
or a young engineer from Yorkshire;
the latter, most likely, is the nephew OF a
liverpool banker, or the younger son OF a
London barrister with a large family. The
first has como here with the crude idea that
San Francisco Is a place where bears are still
shot from back doors and where one may DO
as ~free-and.easy as in his ~neighboring village
on the weekly market day. The latter has
had better information upon what he intends
shall be his new home, but cannot get rid Of
his fancied superiority and feels a mild thrill
OF pleasure as he thinks Of the sensation he
Will make among those western folk. Both
young men soon find their level, and being at
the bottom shrewd, sensible fellows, with
brain as well as Drawn, settle down into use
full members Of society and are satisfied to be-
come an unrecognized and ordinary fraction
Of the English colony.

yellowstone Park.


Jasper IN DeIfolt free fre6aA
Uncle Rufus Hatch, who Is also a truly
good man, with more statistics In his head
than the whole United States census has, is
indignant ut the statement that he has
played four aces against a bob-tail flush in
his Yellowstone park game. These are not
the exact terms Of the allegation, but they
indicate its character, any way. 1t appears
that the Yellowstone Park company that
Uncle Rufus organized is in a bad way foE
money, that the laborers out there can't
get their pay, and that Uncls Rufus
has failed to chip in e little tribe
of $4,000 which he had promised
to make up the pot Some OF his Hcoparcen-
ers" i~nsinuate that he has not played fair and
are making q row. But Unclo Rufus re-
mains serene-e1cept the little Indignation
just mentioned. He denies the allegation
and calmly defes the alligatorS II the
cnparceners ever imagined, though, that
Uncle Rufus would play a game In which
their chance was as good as his, they made q
mighty queer mistake. That isn't how things
are done In Wall street, whore mild Mr..
Hatch has made all his money. A man with
such a head for figures as he has is not likely

DIME V WRITING.
A Manufactures OF BLOOD
Curdling Composition---His PIan of
Writing.

writing
Noble Prentiss in Atchison Champion.1
1t will be news to most Kanas people that
many Of the 8 and 10 cent novel stories OF
"hfe and adventure" published by Beadle,
and "for sale by all newsdealers,n are
produced, so to speak, on our own soil.
At Frankfort resides Mr.. Joseph E.
Badger, Jr., who is the author OF scores,
probably hundreds Of the stories. Mr.. Badger
is regarded by many Of his fellow towns
men in the light of a mystery, as a solitary
being, seldom seen by daylight. and then on
his way to the haunts where he hunts and
fishes, all the hours of the night being de-
voted, as is supposed, to the most blood
curdling composition. Mr.. Badger, a stout,
hearty young man, without the least trace Of
the pale student" in his appearance, was
kind enough to dissipate much of this ro-
nance. He said that, to begin with, he was
a pretty good liar" and had passed consider
able OF his life on the plains and in Colorado
and the Rockies, where most of his stories are
located.
Finding that his first story was accepted,
he continued, not with any literary purpose,
but because the pay was very good. The pay
is about that given by leading magazines for
contribution Of the same length, say 500
for a scent story" and $500 for a "io-cent
story" Mr.. Badger said he could write a
story in two weeks, but that he had heard
that Col. Prentiss Ingra ham" could write
one in t~wenty-four hours. Mr.. Badger said
that he had no choice among his numerous
stories; that when one was flushed he
thought nc more about it, but went TO work
at another; his custom being to sleep in the
afternoon and work at night and in the fore
noon. He sticks to his stories like a shoe
maker sticks to his last, and so is enabled to
turn Off a great amount of work.
His plan of writing is very simple. being
merely to sketch an outline of the plot on a
piece Of paper, and the names OF the char
acters on another. He has now acquired
such facility that he does his work with a
type writer. Among the works of the Kan
sas novelist are "rhe Prairie Ranch, or the
Young Cattle Herders;" Round the Camp
Fire, or Snow Bound ut Freeze Out Camp
and others with more lurid and CORY titles.
His story, very modestly and pleasantly told,
was a curious revelation of a curious trade.

ldamllton Jay in Detroit Free Press
once had in my employ a huge negro who
bore the classic name Of Antony, and for all
1 know may have been a lneal descendant of
the gentleman Of that name who at one time
is said to have been badly mixed up with a
lady named Cleopatra.
This particular Antony lived about seven
miles from my residence and always went
home at night after his work was done.
One day, Just about the time this distin-
guished individual had finished his work, it
commence to rain as il q second edition of
the deluge had just arrived on the lightning
express train and was anxious to begin opera
tons at once. The windows of the heavens
were open and the earth was drenched with
the fullness thereof.
Knowing what a long walk he had before
him, l told him be had better remain at the
house for the night, and offered him a pleas
ant little room for his rest and comfort.
To my establishment he begged of, saying:
Il is much obleeged, boss, but I'd be mighty
lonesome yere wild no one to talk to. Ram

meetin' to- night OBJ our 'siety, so / 'spects I'd

what society is it, Antony, (" said I, "that
in the face of such a storm as this demands
the services Of your gigantic intellect"
He Strengthened himself up, and in a
pompous manner replied: Eyes. sahl Well,
sab, we calls hit the 'Sie'ty OBJ the Ancient
Sons OBJ Noah by his First Wife, sab, an we
holds a speshul meetin' tonight.
"You see we pays our jews, 25 cents q

With this chunk OF wisdom, gained per-
haps in the bitter school of experience, away
went Antony through the rain.
