KENTUCKY IN GERMANY,
The Story of the Blue Grass Boy who
Wanted an Education.

| Mark Twain told a story the other
| day, while on a visit to the Louisville
Press Clubs rooms, which has a genuine
Twain flavor: "There was a Kentucky
student over there" he drawled in his
ludicrous way, 'and he said he had
come over to add the German university
throughout to his education. reckon
he got it. He hadn't been there long
till he was invited 10 banquet with a
lot of students. Heidelberg isn't q
strictly temperance town, and the
students don't exist on O purely cold
water diet. Along toward midnight
there was a row, and it looked as if
it was all gotten up for the benefit of
the young man who wanted to get q
thorough education. Well, they pitched
in, and they had it hot and heavy. The
young fellow just stood up and fred
beer-mugs regardless of expense. He
was good marksman, this Kentuckian
was, and every shot brought down a
student. He went ahead, knocking
them down straight along, until he had
about dozen on the floor. Then he
got a little scared, and walked out.
Well, this caused him to be made the
subject OF the college discipline-nearly
everything man does causes him to be
hauled up before the authorities-and
he was suspended three months. 1t
dida't make much difference to him
about that, however, and he had e good
time till the time was mp. He started
in again, but he got into row which
led to duel. They had a pretty good
fight, and he came out best, but it laid
him up for three months more. Then
he broke his leg and went to the hos
pital. He was there three months. He
got on a tear when he came out, and
this put him into some trouble which
sent him to prison three months more.
Everything he did seemed to end in
three-months' confinement. When the
yonng man got out the last time he
packed up and left Heidelberg. He
said that he didn't doubt that there were
facilities for man to get an education
in Germany, and it might be very
thorough, but the process was too slow"

THE chief advantage secured in the new up
right piano-fortes which the Mason q Hamlin
Company are now introducing is, undoubtedly
in their quality of tone, which is, of course
the fundamental excellence in any piano. BY
their new arrangement, the strings are accu
rately and securely held; being subject tc
little or no variation from changes of tenn
perature, humidity of the atmosphere, etc
More perfect and accurate vibrations of the
strings are thus secured, which are essential t.
tunes entirely musical, and free from mere
noise. The greater durability and freedom
from liability of the Mason & Hamlin piano t.
get out of tune come from the same cause
This improvement in these pianos is added tt

A Newspaper Story.

81 think it is part of the unwritten
history of the Tribune that, after the re-
fusal of Mr.. Colfax to become its editor,
Mr.. Orion gave Joseph Howard, Jr.,
the editor of the Star, the refusal of the
paper for thirty hours. Mr.. Howard
obtained from VIM. NJ. Tweed a million
dollars in securities on which to raise
$4,000, to pay for 81 shares which
Orion held. Mr.. Jay Gould was asked
to advance the money on these securities
and declined to do so. The option ex-
pired, and Mr.. Reid bought the Orton
shares. -Four of these he had sold him
few days before, and had the check
for $4,000 in his pocket. "Boss''
Tweed applied to Mr.. Jay Gould for
a loan on a subsequent occasion. 1t
was for a much smaller sum-only
$1,000. 1t was again refused. At that
time Tweed was in prison, having just
been extradited from Spain. IN. Y.

Correcting omce-Holding Abuse.

Washington Special: When John Sher,
man assumed charge OF the treasury de-.
partment in 1877, he issued an order that
two or more members OF the same family
should not be employed in the department
and in many instances this order was made
to cover cases where members OF the same
family were employed in different depart.
ments. The issuance of this order created
CONSERVATION among the parties to be at.
fected. Investigation revealed that in a
number OF cases entire families consisting
OF several members were employed in the
departments some Of these families being in
receipt OF an annual income from the gov
eminent OF from $4,000 to Sl5, 900. Sec
rotary $herman's order partially corrected
this abuse, but did not reach the older
families OF hereditary officeholders, whose
members have been drawing saleries from
the government for three generations, and
who have come to regard the places they
occupy as their own birthright, with power
to bequeath them to their heirs and as.
signees.
A movement is said to be on foot, how
ever, which may result disastrously for
some OF the offceholding families, if carried
out. This is reported to be the creation OF
a commission to consist of one representa-.
tive from each department, whose duty it
will be to investigate the complaints that
there are now large number OF persons,
members OF the same family, employed in
the departments.

An Arcadian Tragedy.

Arcadia, Wis, Special: Aterriblc tragedy
occurred here recently, when Ned Roger, a
young man, shot Annie Forsch a girl to
whom he was paying attentions, and after
ward committed suicide. The girl was on
Iy fifteen years OF age, and her parents
strongly objected to Rogler as sutton The
latter, who was man ofabout twenty-five
years, finding there was no hope OF mar
rying the girl, deliberately planned to take
her life and his own. This plan he success
their respective homes, while the girls pa
rents are almost beside themselves with
grief. Rogler, after shooting the girl, car
ried her dead body to her terror-stricken
mother. He then took a large dose of
strychine, and to make doubly sure shot
himself in the temple, dying almost nstant-
~. Both were well known here, and the
tragedy has caused great
