Particular About the Bark.

Mr.. Calvert Mellen came over from
Jersey on Friday night and fell among
Philistincs. At least so he said as he
hung over the bar OF the Yorkvillc po-
lice court yesterday morning very
much like Il rug that is hung out of
window to air. He was a perfectly
harml ess young man with Vandyke
beard that was very tender and very
curly. The suit of clothes he wore
had lost their painful ready made new
ness during the preceding g twenty-four
hours.
He further told Justice German that
he had never drank other spirituous
beverage than the plain juice OF the
forbidden fruit that is so prevalent in
his home. He dignifed it by the title
of "apple brandy" When he came
to New York, though, numerous
friendly bartenders had induced him
to drink various connections that were
more mixed than harsh. Very shortly
he became just as badly mixed him
self, and did not really know what had
occurred until he found himself in the
cell yesterday morning.
Officer Thompson did know, how
ever, and told the court. Mr.. Mellen
had been making it interesting for
Third avenue.
He went into every store on the
block said the officer, land said he
wanted some dogs. Didn't care what
they looked like, but was very particu-
lar how they barked Said he would
show how he wanted them to 60.
Then he would get down on all fours
and prance around u 'ki-yi-ing' for all
he was worth. That was the kind of
dogs he wanted, he said. Didn't want
any bow-wow dogs. Then he insisted
on the clerks doing it, so there would
be no mistake. He got very mad if
they told him they didn't keep dogs,
and wouldn't leave till they promised
to get dozen. Well, hemade it rath-
er lively for the ladies in the stores,
and after he had worked about ten
shops they had to call me. When l
got him to the station-house he braced
the sergeant for trade in terriers.
He thought the cell was dog-kennel,
and it tickled him half to death. He
was a hopping round his cell and hay
ing lots of fun all night"
.Is this all so, Calvert?" asked the
judge, with an amused light in his eye
glasses.
ooh, l guess so, sir. He then
bought his liberty instead of dogs.

"A MOney-Making Business.

The most valuable portion of our
branch OF the business, said q Wash
lngton dealer in public documents, is
our collection of old house and senate
executive documents and reports of
committees of both houses, the copies
OF which have long since been exhaust
ed IN the document rooms at both ends
of the capitol. There are constant calls
for these old reports and messages
Some old claim that has been acted on
IN congress years ago will be resus-
citated and then the report made upon
1t by the committee will be wanted. 1t
can not be found in the capitol, as, it
being an important case when first in
congress, all copies of the report have
long since been disposed of. Then the
seeker comes to me. He often finds it,
too, and although it may be of no i'm
portance to any one but him, he is gen.
orally willing to pay me q good, fair
price torit L always keep big stock
on hand.
remember just such case which |
had last winter. A man came here
after report which had been made by
the committee of claims in the thirty
sixth congress. He wanted a copy of
that report and had searched the cap-
1tol and the state department high and
low, but not copy could he find. A
friend sent him to me. | was about to
let him 90 away without looking, when
happily remembered that when | first
started in the business | purchased a
whole pile of documents and reports
OF the thirty-sixth congress from an
employe of the capitol, who wanted
some money to get a railroad ticket
with. | paid him $3.50 for the lot, and
| could just remember having stumb-
led over them hundred times since.
told the gentleman to wait while |
climbed into the attic. l at once cot
the old bundle, and, after half an hours
search, found the identical report which
the gentleman was in search Of
'How much?" said he with a smil-
ing 1ace,as | approached hot and dusty
with the 20 document.
''Oh. as you please" SAID l. "What-
ever it is worth to YOU" The gentle
man thrust two 500 bills into my hand
and sailed forth with his nose buried
in the musty but precious pub. doc, -
and said to myself: This is q good
business.

HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE,
AN ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY.

The position of HARTER's YOUNG PEOPLE as
the leading weekly periodical for young read
ers is well established. The publishers spare no
pains to provide the best and most attractive
reading and illustrations. The serial and short
stories have strong dramatic interest, while
they are wholly free from whatever is perni-
cious or vulgarly sensational; the papers on
natural history and science, travel and the facts
OF life, are by writers whose names give the
best assurance of accuracy and value Illus
trated papers on athletic sports, games, and
pastimes give full information on these sub
jects. There is nothing cheap about it but its
price.

How THINGS GET LosT.-The inexcusa-
BILE carelessness exhibited by some people
in the handling of valuable property, and
the ease with which things may be mislaid
and lost, are illustrated by lecture late
ly delivered by DR.. Wilson before the
American genealogical society. He gave
thirty instances in which various articles,
such as sponges, forceps, and other things,
had been left in the abdominal cavity OF
patients who had undergone the operation
of laparotomy This operation, it may be
stated, consists in cutting through the walls
of the abdomen in the lumbar region, and IN
it many appliances are employed. 1t is in
this direction that the carelessness referred
to occurs. Here are thirty instances in
which physicians have left their instruments
in the abdominal cavities of patients, hav.
ing sewed up the opening, and had gone
away, and did not probably discover their
loss until the patients were dead and buried
Some steps should be taken to end this ruin.
Gus waste. Possibly there might be appoint.
ed bv the State an official whose duty il
should be to attend all the operations end
ing in ''otomy," and see that no valuable
property is lost by being left in the inclseo
regions.
Of course these implements SO left nra Of
no value to the patient, but dead loss tc
the surgeon. The habit is one that should
be. discouraged, and when surgeon has be
come confirmed in leaving his tools around
in this careless way he should not be al
lowed to replace them by circulating sua
