Cleveland on a Bob.Sled

On one of the city snow-slides Presl-
dent-elect Cleveland stood Saturday
night. lie was muflled to the chin, but
appeared to be cold. The hill was
thronged with coasters. Beautiful AL
bany bellies were out in force, accom-
panied by their escorts. The snow path
was dotted with swiftly rushing sleds,
decked with lovely girls in gay attire.
Mr.. Cleveland was a passive spectator of
the animated scene for many minutes.
Finally he turned to friend at his elbow
and remarked that he wished he were
boy again. This sentiment was echoed
by his auditor, and was overheard by
rosy-cheeked young lady with a sled,
who had just clambered the steep ascent.
She quickly whispered to her big
brother, and he timidly approached the
great man. Confusedly he rendered
Mr.. Cleveland the use of his sled, but
the offer was politely declined.
Cleveland's friend urged him to ac-
cept the proilered "bob." and he heroic
ally volunteered to pilot the cranky
craft. Mr.. Cleveland hesitated, and
murmured something about its not being
very dignilled. But his companion over,
ruled his objections, and Mr.. Cleveland
permitted himself be led to the brow of
| the hill.
The next President sat down with n
dull hump. The next instant thew
were darling down the slide like a flash
of light. Tears came into the ewes of
the President-elect, and he held his
breath as the wind blew through
his mustaohe with n mournful cadence
Jolly coasters caught only glimpse of
him as the sled sped downward, but he
did not escape recognition. Young men
clapped their hands and painting beau-
ties paused to wave handkerchiefs and
oomiorters. II was triumph by moon
light.
At last the little sled came TO pause
and Mr.. Cleveland and his pilot allghted,
Their clothing was ilecked with snowy
particles and their noses had been deftly
touched by frosty hands, but they did
not care. MIR. Cleveland had enjoyed \
bob-sled ride for the first time in thirty
years. Albany Letter to New Yori

AN IMPoRTANr INDUSTRY.

Last Tuesday evening a HERALD re-
porter visited the brick yard Of j. IL.
Close about half mile west of town
The Hankin Brothers have charge Of 1t
and are at present working six hands i,
but expect to employ more in short
time The yard and kiln are nicely
situated In a bend Of the creek and
everything is convenient for rapid and
excellent work. The clay is of the fin
est quality in the United States, and
will make brick that last better than
stone They are about the same quail
ity of Milwaukee brick. They have
now a kiln started with about 1000 in
it and there are over 1000 more mould
ed in the yard. Their kiln completed
will contain 100, 900 and they viii have
it ready for firing about the first Of July.
Ordinarily they burn from 25O, 900 to
800 600 in a kiln, but as there is now a
strong demand for their brick, they
will burn a small kiln at first in order
to supply the market 1t takes but
about seYan days TO burn a kiln This
will undoubtedly be a lucrative business
as there viii be a good demand for
brick in the near future. The HERALD
wishes the new en5e rprise an abundant
success.

HE WAS EASILY DISTURBED.
4 Bo,ton Lawyer Has a Newsboy Arrested
For Crying Ills Papers,

BosroN, Mass, oct lS.-A peculiar
ease with an element OF the grotcsque IN
it has been decided ia the municipal
court 4 lawyer named George W Pierce
residing on Milford street. at the South
End, caused the arrest OF 4 newsboy
named sullivan on the charge Of disturb
ing the peace. When Mr., Pierce took the
stand his testimony was to the effect that
be- is accustomed To rise about $50
O'Clock in the morning; that when he
was In bed few mornings ago, at
about a. M, be heard news
boy cry out The names OF
hi, papers three times: that
hr arose hastily, dressed himself and ran
down stairs and out Of the doors that
the boy, not sullivan, saw him coming
and ram that he Pierce chased him,
but could not catch him that he then re.
turned to his house, and near the corner
oil Milford street he saw another ncwshoy
crying out his papers; this second boy
was the defendant, sullivan; that he
asked him his name and the boy refused
TO give it to him, and informed him fur
lhcr that he had license and would sell
his papers when he chose to; that he
took his number, made a complaint and
had him arrested.
On cross-eXamiuation Pierce admitted
thai he was often disturbed by the noises
generally attendant on the whirl OF city
life. The attorney for the defendant
raised the point that the government is
bound to prove that the nuisance com
planned OF is general oRe, and that
whore only one person is disturbed, and
he, 10y his own confession, is OF an eN-
eecdIngly nervous disposition, 1t Is not
disturbance of the peace of the COM
munity. Judge Eorsaith took this view
OF the case and ordered the boys dis
charge.

Men Who In the Matter of Toughness Rival

The other day nm old fellow named
dose Onoirc Oicda died over in town of
the state of Jalisco, aged 10 years lie
had been married twice and only Il year
ago thought seriously OF third wife,
wncn death came along TO stop his natrl-
munial schemes. Some time agoAn aged
fellow was living at san Miguel de Al
lendc, aged l35 years, man still vigor-
Gus. The records of the parish church
confirm his claims TO u great age. Not
long ago, down in the pretty little tropical
village OF OriZaha, there died an old
woman aged ITO years, and a few months
ago n woman named Martina Riviera died
here at the age of so years, fact thor.
onghly attestcd The Indians have
q proberb that their hair is
black when that of the Span
lard Is growing gray. A local paper noted
the other day the case OF the Indian Juan
Santiago, who died IN 1874, at the age of
li8 years. This old chap left two de.
pendent grandchildren, both aged men.
whose wears were respectively III and
lQa years The grandfather married. as
the Indians do, very Young, and Il l. not
surprising that he should have lett
descendants who were themselves cen
;onIrians.
The secret OF this extraordinary Ion
goyity among the Indians Is their simple
diet and regular habits. They themselves
say that when an indian COOS into service
and eats the food of the white man the
ludian's teeth begin to decay. Their per.
pctnal grinding on tortllas keeps their
teeth white and the lime Ia the turtiua
makes teeth-honc
