The holiday attractions at the business
house of Zehner, jackson Il Buechner,
Sixteenth and Ferguson streets. are dag
zling and bewildering. Brilliant dia-
monds, sapphires. emeralds, and other
precious gems, fash in the most tempt
ing way before the eyes of the purchaser.
Gold watches e the most exquisite
workmanship, hut especially those charm
ing Swiss time pieces, made by Patek

prices running from s525 down to $40.
Elegant jewelry sets there are in stock,
from a superb diamond and sapphire set
at 81 300 to more modest but handsome
sets at $l5. Diamond bracelets fash
their value from $500 to $50, and soil
tsires from 5000 to $50. The ladies' find
here silver tea-sets worth from $500 to s25;
French clocks imported by the firm. Paris
and Vienna novelties in bronzes. The
great feature of the house IL its manufac-
turing department. the only one in fact in
the territory, supplied with the best mod
ern machinery for producing the most
elaborate and expensive designs at short
notice. This firm succeeded Joslin x

Possibilities of the PIANO rypesette

Possibilities OF the Plano" Typesetter.
The capitalists and editors are sure they
have, at Washington, a keyboard that
will cast a column Of type each hour. 1t
is therefore confidently predicted that the
typesetter's vocation is gone There are
two compositors-one thinks the fault Is
all his own; the other thinks thinks the
fault Is all due to the carelessness with
which the copy is prepared. There will
never be a machine like the first man, and
there will be a machine which is so serious
a failure as is the second man.
The success of any piano" probably de
ponds largely on the extent 10 which
HblacksmithingH has driven real printers
out of the composing rooms. There Is one
other consideration OF importance in this
matter, and that is: As the masses rap
idly became reconciled to poor machine
made footwear, they may easily become
willing to accept poor machine-made
print. The pegs may stick out and a
screw may gouge occasionally, but the
price will be f%abulously cheap. and the
quality will always improve, while, under
the system OF handmade reading, the
quality has not improved at least. for a
hundred years.

TRAPPING THE HUDSON BAY SABLE.

0rent SKIN and Experience Required
Construction Of a Trap-The Fur.
Foremost in the list OF the fur traded by
the Hudson Bay and other companies Is
the Hudson Bay sable (mustelR Amerl-
cann). The pine marten, or sable OF
northwest America, is not esteemed So
valuable rs the sabl from Russia, known
10 nnturalists as mustela zibillina: but
there Is no doubt that the two species are
In reality one and the same, the difference
of temperature and other local modifying
causes, readily accounting for the better
quality OF the Russian fur. About 10000
skins are brought over TO England alone
every year by the Hudson Bay company.
Marten trapping requires great skill aud
experience. The favorite haunts OF the
little robber are the pine forests, espe-
cially where dead or burnt timber
abounds. It's food consists OF anything It
can catch BY craft or cunning, young birds
and eggs, squirrels and rabbits.
The trap most frequently used Is II fall
trap. IL Is OF Indian invention and. a very
ingenious continuance. A half circle Is
hrst built OF large stones to the height Of
about three feet; then a heavy tree Is laid
across the entrance, one end being raised
and supported m u contrlvance very like
the figure OF four trap, used by boys for
catching small birds, a dainty bit Of rab-
bit or q ruled grouse, skinned, Is hung on
a projecting stick, built into the bac OF

can only get at the bait by creeping under
the tree, then selling 1t, and finding him.
self unable TO pull It down he backs out,
Juggling the string to which the bait Is at
tached along the stick. on which rests the
figure Of four, supporting the tree. Just
as the center OF his back comes under the
fall or tree, he looses the support by tug
ging the meal off the stick, when down IL
falls on him, killing him instantly, but
doing no Injury to the fur.
The winter fur Is by far the most valua-

as IL is removed, Their placed on a fiat
board and go dried In the sun. A good

and coast ranges of mountains; the
further north the darker and better are
the skins..-Brooklyn Eagle.

THEY WON'T DRIEK.
For Fear They will be Tarred and
Feathered

Norwalk Conn., Special St. Louis Repub-
lean.
On the night of December, 81
1883, three young men sat around
a tavern fire in Georgetown, lit
tie village about ten miles from
here. The three were intoxicated
and were watching the old year
out. As the clock struck IL one
of the young men said: "Boys,
the new year is here, now let's
swear off and form q Temperance
society" The others in a spirit
of fun agreed. The articles of as
sociations were then and there
drawn up. They were similar
to the rules of other temperance
organizations with this exception.
The clause containing the pledge
had the following penalty attach
ed: "And any one of us who
shall drink any. intoxicating liq-
uor, for any purpose whatsoever,
between now and midnight Of De-
cember 81, 1884, shall be tarred
and feathered."
This clause becoming known
gained the club the name of "The
Tar and Feather Temperance So
ciety." Meetings of the society of
three were frequently held. Grad
ually applications for member
ship began to pour in, and before
six months had passed the society
numbered thirty members. The
year of abstinence expired on
Tuesday night, and a grand ball
was given by the society to which
large number of the best people
of the place were invited. The
hall was filled. At midnight the
President announced that the
pledge had expired. By unani-
nous vote it was renewed for an
other year, and some twenty new
names were added to the roll. The
peculiar penalty proves an attrac-
tive advertisement, and the matter
is the talk of the neighborhood.
Nearly every residence wears the
society's badge. The badge is a
blue ribbon, with lump of tar
filled with chicken feathers attach

WHY MISS HURST REFUSED.
Macon, Ga, Telegraph.

Macon, Ga, Telegraph.
The red shirt division of the re-
public is again in a futter over
the fact that recently in Chicago
buck negro was not permitted
by the versatile and distinguished
Mr.. Paul Atkinson to enter into a
contest of strength with Miss Lu-
la Hurst. A determined effort is
being made to give the matter a
political turn, and threats of
lawsuits, bowls of Indignation
and loud talk about civil rights
fill the air.
This trouble arose entirely
through Republican eagerness to
raise row with the South, and
ignorance of the keen business
streak that crops out in both Mr..
Hurst and our Mr.. Atkinson.
These gentlemen would not allow
the contest to take place through
any enmity to the race; both pro-
fessed great friendship for the
colored people. Nor did the col
or of the applicant have anything
to do with it, for Miss Hurst's
hidden powers are as potent with
black as with white subjects. The
gentlemen refused to allow the
contest to take place because they
understand the negro race thor
oughly and know that the average
representative of it exerts mys-
ferrous strength before which
Miss Hurst would be powerless.
This is the simple explanation.
If that buck negro had been al
lowed to struggle with the Geor-
gia Wonder for the possession of a
cue, or a chair, or an umbrella in
the hot atmosphere of Chicago
theatre, the mysterious strength
of the negro would have soon
vanquished the mysterious
strength of the Wonder. The
odoric force would have overcome
the odic force. Samson himself
would not have dared to risk his
reputation in crowded hall in a
contest with negro who had on
ly to work up a perspiration and
wave his arms a few times to sum
mon up a resistless strength to
his assistance. Is it right to ask
a poor Georgia girl to enter con-
test that Samson would shun

1--we IN the present usually live
from hand to mouth. Give us the
man who lives for the future-who
rises triumphant over past mis-
fortunes who looks down with
pity upon wrong and contempt
upon difficulties who is dissatis-
fled with past attachments and
who eagerly pursues new objects
and fields of progress and devel-
opment 1t is pursuit, not pos
session, that makes men useful
and happy, and he who is content
ed with the possessions of the
past or the present, or who can
not forget his failures or his in
luries or his sorrows, is neither
contented or happy nor useful to
himself or to society. Then let
us all reach forth toward the fu-
ture-forgetting the past-save to
improve upon it, and to be guild
eddy its experience. Let us turn
over new leaf and make new
resolutions-but not to break
them. One happy thought is that
the future is big thing, both for
time, if we live long, and for eter-
nifty through which we must live.
This life is too short to trouble
about anything but the future.
Let the evil and the INDECENT and
the unforgiving and the despond-
ent forsake their way, and press
forward for the goal of better
things; God and fortune will
smile upon their pathway. There
is but little behind US worth any
thing-except to repent of; but
the future is full of hope, success
and happiness.
