walking on the Water.

~
A tall, good-looking, brown mustachcd
young man, with a jaunty stop and a compla-
cent smile, walked quietly over the pathway
leading from the Manhattan hotel TO tho
bathing pavilion, Coney island, the other af-
ternoon. he entered, paid for a ticket and
shortly aftorward rsappoared on the beach,
clad in a suit OF resplendent tights and carry
ing In his hands a pair OF objects shaped like
snow shoes, but considerably thicker. Fitting
these TO his feet he waded into the water. He
sank no further than half way 10 his knees,
A crowd of nursemaids, children, policemen
and idlers gnzed at him from the pier, and
the bathers all suspended operations TO watch
his movements. He walked out into deep
water, balancing himself and shooting for
wnrd NJ though skating. The water was
calm and he turned and wheeled about on its
surface. The nuusmaids said, "Oh, my, -
the children oheersd, and tho idlars looked

The young man amused himself for a
quarter OF an hour Then he revisited the
bathing pavilion, and came out clothed and
carrying the aquatic shoes under his arm. A
crowd pressed round him and made inquiries,
ami a young man begged a trial OF the shoes.
He got them and, procuring a bathing suit,
started out TO experiment for himself. When
he got 10 deep water he lost his balance.
There was a wild yell, and the next moment
the shoes were kicking wildly ON the surface
Of the water. What was going on beneath
was left to the imagination OF the beholders.
A boat pulled In and rescued the shoes, and a
very much bedraggled and discounted dude
crawlsd into the boat after them. When he
got his breath he said he didn't know they

THERE have been all kinds of letters
accepting party nominations for the Office
of President of the United States. There
have been long Letters and short letters
there have been d~emAgogical letters and
letters which fought shy of principles and
attended strictly to the business Of catch
ing votes. None Of the letters heretofore
given to the public have exhibited the
faintest tinge of humor, although Ben
Buffers effort possessed some rather
ludicrous features. 1t has remained for
Mns. Belva A. Lockwood, in accepting
the Equal Rights nomination from a
party Of women in California, to attempt
the faeetious. After expressing the con-
vietion that the Equal Rights party alone
truly represents the whole people,
she modestly expresses the belief
that she could successfully steer
the ship of State. She believes in
Civil Service reform and after all the
women have been supplied thinks the
men should have a chance at the public
crib. As President she frankly confesses
that she would faithfully guard the inter
ssts of every class, irrespective of race,
ser or color. She not only believes in
fostering the interests of the country,
but is likewise in entire sym
patty with the workingmen.
She believes in clothing the widows and
educating the children of soldiers from the
public funds and in 4 fit Of reckless icono-
elasm suggests the adjustment Of the
Pension Office. She s%trenuously opposes
monopoly, in the sense Of men monopo-
LIKING votes, and is in full accord with the
temperance movement. In her inaugu-
nl address abe promises to recon-
mend a uniform system Of
laws Al far rs practicable
in all the States and Territories. She
faron an extension Of our commercial re-
lations and the appointment ola com
mission to arbitnte all questions arising
between the several States. She believes
the Government should pay the Indians
what it owes them, break up their tribal
relations, distribute their lands in sevenl-
~ and make them citizens amenable to
the laws Of the land. She has a kind
word for long-suEering Ireland and in
closing promises due consideration to the
wants of the ho~me-loving German.

CHOLERA AND CHOLERA MoReus.
How tho Latter Works You, and
How the Former Lays You out.

How the Former Lays You Out.
[Peck's SUM-
Cholera can be cured, they say, il a man
docs not die the first hour or two, but he
usually dies. But there ought to bo a stop
put TO people advertising a medicine that
win cure cholera, when it wouldn't cure a
plain case Of cucumber collie. There is "a
vast difference between plain, every day
cholera morbus and Asiatic cholera. Cholera
morbus takes hold Of a fellows department
Of the interior, and yanks, and makes neck
tics, tied in double bow and square knots, Of
those portions of his patent inside that are
usually affected by such disease, but it does
not break him up entirely.
A man with cholera morbus has been known
to use p~rofane and disreputable language be-
tween the heats, and lie to his family about
what he has been eating and drinking, and he
will be cross ut the doctor, and wonder why
he does not give him something TO untangle
himself inside, and unravol the knots that
seem to have tied themselves in his sarcopha-
gus; and when he gets over it he will want TO
go home and shoot the green grocer that sold
him the IN or watermelons, as the
case may 10; but when the cholera tunes up
for an overture, and begins to finger the
strings Of a mans banjo, there is music by
the entire band, and the man does not swear.
He says his now l lay me-" goes into a col
lapse, and II he has any visions at all they
are OF coroners, undertakors, hearses, and the
cold and silent tomb. He wants to send for
his parents, and hasn't strength enough to say
a cuss word II he wanted to. He does not be-
lieve that there is any medicine on earth that
can cure him, and II no had q revolver handy
he would kill himself.
You will see that cholera is dangerous when
It gets hold OF you, but the way to do is not
to let IL make the first payment. The best
way is to laugh and joke just tho same when
cholera is around as you did before. If
cholera sees u long face and a frightened
look, 1t laughs and says: THAT Is my meat ~
OF course, II cholera gets too thick in your
neighborhood, and you can slip off unbe-
known to anybody, and make tracks for some
relative at a distance, just slow tracks, as
though you were intending to go all the time,
and were not in a hurry, It might be well
enough TO pull out, but don't go In a panic.
This article Is written TO sort Of brace people
up, and show them TINT It Is best not TO be
afraid, but, honestly, the writer Is scared
half out OF his wits about cholera, oven as
far off as France, and IL the disease should
arrive in this country, you would see a red
headed streak going up north on a gallop,
about the size OF the brave editor Of The Sun.

MECHANICS WITH SCIENCE
Destined TO Eneet the Chief RovoIu'
ton In This Country.

DeANAnr0 70 hhoNN IA M hoNCA1~
ton In This Country.
t-Gath" In Cincinnati Enquirer.l
A great trouble with the southern states to-
day, as mercantile customers, Is their indif-
ference, except in certain districts, to the
tastos and aspirations passing over the rest
Of the country. The manufacturing
and artistic spirit Is kept alive By the ex-
t~rayaganco, so TO speak, OF the people. That
il 10 say. II a man buys a carpet instead OF
whisky. and spends his money in ornament
ing his house instead OF betting 1t away on a
race or a cotton option. no becomes a better
customer In proportion as no is II better
oitizen.
Nothing win ciylIse so like the manufact-
ures. Wherever they have gone another
spirit has come over the society. We are too
early for art 70 affect Us much, and l observe
in those counties whore mere art has -four
ishod that tho great body Of tho people are
still ignorant Mechanics with science are
destined 10 effect tho chief revolution In this
country. Out OF science and manufacture
have already como tho p~hosphates and other
organic uAnures which ave brought up
poor soil and made 1t possible TO cultivate
cotton 70 the base OF the Allegheny
mountains.
Whom slavery passed from the surfnce Of
the ground tho fossils OF fish and other beings
under the surface reached out their bones as
II to say, "HerO is your slave who will work
for you and you cannot abuse him" Much
OF the want Of civilization in the old mount
ain portions OF America arises from the en-
tire absence Of money as a circulating me
dunn. There arc families In the mountains
OF West Virginia, and l suppose OF Kentucky
and Tennessee, who, before tho war, hardly
saw a real dollar from tho beginning OF the
year to the ond. Their business was exclu.
sivo barter, selling what they had TO the mer-
chant at his price, and taking in return what
he had 10 offer also at his price. The mer-
chant seemed TO have an interest in bringing
up the quality OF the people. Beautiful
things, refining things were not among his
wAroz Tn people got coffee and tobacco
aud sugar, and hardly a s~pellng-book- It ia
true that they were happy, but so Is tho fox.
In tho older times religion reached into
those hills and implanted that spirit called
piety, which Is next TO worldly ambition.
Tho war seemed to paralyne the preachers in
tho south, and flung them back upon the
crude people there, not turning their faces
toward tho light OF tho cross any more, but
toward the darkness of the Golgotha. De-
voured in tho politics OF slavery, religion has
over since been to n large extent u kind Of
passive force, like that OF the Jews who as
semble In the Willing place In Jerusalem to
howl about tho past. Tho new preacher has
come with the fire on his brows and fro In
his eye. It Is the much derided, tho throb-
bling, the screaming, tho evangelist looomo-
tive.
