HAsrY SALE OF PLEDGED STOCK.
AN EXPLANATION OF THE DECLINE IN THE NORTH

An exclamation of the recent decline in the North

The action of the bankers was criticised sharply
by the friends of the company, and 1t IS probable
that the mat er will be brought before the ar mira

A "TROUBLE-MAN'Sn LIFE.
Jumping From Housetop to the Cross
Bars Of Seventy-Foot Pole.

The life of telegraph company's
lneman is laborious and dangerous
one and at times entails great hard
ship and exposure. In Philadelphia
the Western Union company has five
men whose whole duty is to repair
damages to the line in or within q few
miles of the city. One of these is
George Riley, who went to sea for elev-
en- years of his life and who has been
in the employ Of the company for the
past fifteen years. In speaking OF ac-
cidents in telegraph work he said
There is some danger, of course, in
line work. but rs Il rule it can be avoid
cd if one is cool-headed and careful.
The trouble with most men is that when
they get accustomed to climbing they
become careless and reckless and some
times get bad falls. The only man Of
our line that has been killed in my
time was thrown to the ground by the
breaking of cross-bar. There are
very narrow escapes, though. i have
climbed pole that | thought was
sound and found when near the top
that it was soft and rotten. Once fell
about twelve feet, and only saved my
self from falling to the ground by
grabbing some wires. In Philadelphia
the company has about fifty poles that
are from seventy to 100 feet high.
Formerly we used to climb these ike
the rest, but of late years the monsters
are fitted with iron steps, and going up
them is nearly as easy as walking up
stairs. The steps were adopted be-
cause the poles are valuable and the
climbing made holes in them and
caused them to be exposed to the wealth
er. One of these poles is eighty feet
high. Formerly we had either to climb
this pole or to get to it from the roof.
The Jump from the mansard roof to the
fourth cross-bar was fully five feet and
the cross-bar, seventy feet above the
ground, was only three and a halt
inches broad, You can imagine that
this was a small foothold for such a
Jump, and vet we never missed it. The
lump back to the roof was somewhat
more dangerous. there being a space
of only sixteen inches to land on and
a wall to bump against, | took the
jump several times, but liked it less and
less at every jump.
The best and holdest climber
know is Dick Penn, of Baltimore. He
has climbed old poles that broke under
him, but, like cat, he always falls or
his feet. He doesn't use any monkey
wrench, as others do, in getting out the
two and sevcn-cights-inch bolts thai
fasten the cross-bars to the pole, bu
pulls them out or kicks them out. A
climbers outfit is generally pair o
climbing-rons, a pair of nippers tc
break wire with and n section OF wire
say ten pounds | have seen Penn
climb forty-iivc-foot pole with l6(
pounds of wire thrown over his should
cr. James Grace, also line man, wal
the only other man who could climl
with this weight,
They call us at the office trouble
men, for whenever there is anything
wrong on the line we are sent for to fl,
it. "-Philadelphid Times.

The trouble with most Of the girls Is
thcy are ia too big hurry to get mar
ricd. When they ret through school or
college they begin to look round for
fcllcr and rs fclcfs of the right sort
are scarce thc} kill time for a year or
two and then mate with somebody they
don't want exactly and the union is not
happy. A girl had better not marry at
all than to marry badly. Most OF our
men are poor and they cant afford to
marry. The girls and the boys are all
on n strain to keep up with society.
But if girl can support herself she is
Independent aud can take her pick when
she does marry. Mr. Whitner told me
that he had to send to Michigan for
girls 10 work in his office. that he could
not find them here and he was now pay
ing one $500 and another 81, 900. That
is bad sign for US. 1t is q reflection
either on our girls or our system OF
education There ore many inviting
fields for girls thai are not yet occu-
pied. The world is full Of picture
cards and Christmas gems, and they
ought TO make the designs, for new pat
terms are wanted every day. Photogra-
ply is an art that would just suit their
taste and there ought to bo a gallery
attached to every female college How
nice il would be to adorn the walls or
fill portfolios with lovely liEcncsses Of
every class that graduatcs and every
teacher and distinguished visitor. How
nice it would be to see lady III charge
of gallery in every town. How much
better she could arrange the dress and
the position, and how kindly the chill
drcn would take to her gentle voice. l
know she would get the patronage Of
all the Young men and could nave n
trunk full of handsome pictures 10 look
at on Sundays if she wanted them.
Southern girls are teaching now all
over the land, and that is n good sign
Before the war we used to get all our
teachers from New England. But then
they didn't teach very long; for our
young men and widowcrs married them,
AMI they made good wives and good
mothers and they raised up good rebels.
| They don't come now and our own
girls have monopolized the business.

Esop Brought Down to Date.

1t Is reported that on certain occa-
sion an elderly gentlemen, who had
gained some practical wisdom from a
tolerably long sojourn in this world OF
sorrow and sin, perceiving that his
lease of life was fast running out, sum-
mened his several sons about his bed
side and bade them exercise their
strength in trying to break lot OF sticks,
first bound together, afterward taken
singly Then, from n text suggested
by comparing the fruitfessness of the
first attempt with the success OF the
second, the excellent old gentleman Is

plating the kindling wood which lay
scattered about the floor, "see how, In
