"RARBER PARTIES"
short Haired Girls and smooth

short Haired Girls and smooth Faced Men Meeting in Shaving Shops. From the Progress.
 Fashion changes have origi- mated "Barbers' Parties" As 1 have said, the society young man must have a beardless face and the society girl must keep the halr of her head cropped close. The new caper is for all the girls who have had their hair cut about the same time to meet when it requires trimming again at the houses of one another in turn, sWhere couple of barbers wait their orders. Gertlemen are not excluded, and frequently take advantage Of the occasion to submit themselves to the razors. It is understood that when gentlemen are present they pay the barbers, while the ladies supply refreshments. The short haired girl must have a barber once q month, while the smooth faced man must shave or be shaved every day.
 Hair dressers are alarmed at the new style so far as it affects ladies and pray that it will not spread As is obvious, it threatens to atfec the,r trade in false hair. There l a rumor, but not well founded that some ladies have visited gen tlemen's barber shops for the pull pose of having their hair cut, an
 they have not been altogether we
 come. It is said that they are to
 particular; that three men coul
 be served while one woman l. being attended to; that they al

 up an incessant chattering, like

 objection is stated that if a gent
 man peeps in and sees the pla 6 full of girls, he scampers off as 9 he had been fired from a gun.

A country editor "who has been there himself" thus describes his class: "The country editor IS man who reads newspapers, writes on almost any subject, sets type, folds papers, makes up mails, runs errands, saws wood, works in the garden, is blamed for thousands of things he never thought of, works hard all day, helps people into office who forget all about it after wards, and very frequently gets cheated out of half his earnings. He puffs and does more to build up the town than any one else, and the miser and the fogy are benefited, yet they will not take his paper, will borrow it, read it and cuss the editor" "-Bathgate Sentinel.

p..s,aent,s Family.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Presl- dent Cleveland's home life and surroundings, his habits, his friends, his family and the social atmosphere of the White House for the coming four years are more talked about in Washington than questions of State and poll tics. The fact that the White House cook has orders to serve breakfast at s o'clock and that the President expects every member of the household to sit down with him at that hour is the first change | that is noted. An observing wo- man says this change indicates that MT. Cleveland is master Of his own house, and will have the deciding vote on the question Of wine on the White House table when it comes to that. It was a surprise to the majority of society people here to find that Mir. Cleve lands immediate family was SC numerous. The popular impress sion was that he was bachelo with maiden sister, who was to b' mistress of the White House, an' that he had few kindred. On th' contrary, society finds a large an' | robust American family at tn White House on the opening wee of the administration, and is mai ing inquiries as to the character istics of its members.
 Perhaps a more unostentatiot vet self-respectful family clrc were never seen around a Pres dent than the brother and siste' < who came to look upon Grow - Cleveland's inauguration.

The Brazilian law of 1871, pro- viding that all children born to slave mothers should be free, they cannot obtain their freedom until they are twenty-one years old, and must serve their mothers owner until that time. Consequently children are worked to death, and only small proportion of them live to secure their freedom. A traveller says ''there never was a nation on the globe in which slaves were treated with more dlabollcal cruelty than they are to day in the coffee producing provinces ot Brazil. The punishments prac- ticed are simply barbarQus. !" There are still 100000 slaves in the empire. In two provinces
 abolition sentiment is so strong that all of the slaves have been freed.

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.

The cost of maintaining the Presi- depcv far exceeds the $50,000year- ly salary of it's incumbent. His private Secretary is paid $3,250, his Assistant Private Secretary S2,250, his stenographer $1,S00, five mes sengers each s1,200, steward S1,8OO, two doorkeepers who each get S1,2OO. four other clerks at good salaries, one telegraph opera
 tor, two ushers getting $1,20O and
 S1 400, a night usher getting Sl,2O0s watchman who gets $900 and a
 man to take care of the fires who receives $664 a year. In the ap- | propriation bill for the coming
 fiscal year there is set down So,0o0
 for incidental expenses, such as
 stationery, carpets and the care of
 the Presidential stable, $12, ,500 for
 repairs and refurnishing the White
 House, $2,5OO for fuel, S4,000 for
 the green house, $15,000 for gas,
 matches and the stables. This
 brings the total cost of supporting
 the White House and it's occupants
 up to about $125, ,000 a year. But
 in Cleveland the people will have
 the worth of their money.
 Dr. Persifor Frazer, in his ad. dress as delegate from the Ameri- 5 can Association to the Royal Soci- 3 ety of Canada last May, made a happy allusion to the noticeable - circumstance that "the dictionary l of the people of the United States, ', so fecund in expanding itself to : meet the wants occasioned by new
 conditions of things, has but one J. adjective to specify the nationality 2 of our own illustrious men, which d will apply equal to those of Canada d America" Strictly speaking s. this application includes also the S. citizens of Mexico and the States k of Central and South America; bu t. general usage among us, at leas t. practically restricts it to the tw' t. English speaking peoples of thi' n. hemisphere, and fairly expresse' " the union of these two in literatur ed and science, as well as persona al friendly intercourse. In comparl h. son with these things, politlcs h. union is a matter of less import pt ance, except as it might affect tn
 condition of trade.-Denver Mil ht ing Review.

number of boys while playing in an old house at Delhi, Delaware County, N. T., made curious dis covery. One of the number lost a piece of money through crack and pulled up a board to get it, when he found hid between the timber a long murderous knife, on which are number of spots that are supposed to be blood, and beside it, in an old newspaper, was large lot of blonde hair. The mystery has created consid- erable excitement.

The Fool Friend.

But shall we 10 with the warm,
personal friend who sets up nights
to love us, but hurts us in every
corner by his indiscretion : We
cannot whip him and throw him
away. We eanaot get him shut
up in an insane asylum, because
the asylum was not designed for
idiots. 1t was made for people
who once had brains. 1t Is a con-
undrum which more than one of us
has given up. If the fool friend
could have his jaws locked with a
time-lock, and then fed by an at
tendant through the vest pocket,
we could than set the timelock to
open after election or just before
breakfast on the day Of Judgment,
or such other date as we desired,
and all would bo well, but you can
not do that. The jaw of the fool
friend wags on and on till the goose
of the one he loves best on earth is
cooked to a rich, deep brown. An
enemy may say mean things to you
but they lose force because people
know at once by his bitterness that
he is your enemy, but he who knows
your inmost heart, who knows
what salary YOU receive and how
much it lacks of maintaining you
how mean you are in your family,
aud how pleasant you are in other
peoples families, how you smile
through the day and snore through
the night, how earnest you are in
your labors toward reform in ey-
erything except your own habits,
and a thousand other little glimp'
ses into your homo life which none
but friend may know, vixen he
has no brains to balance his warm
affection for you, think what ruin
he can furnish you at carload rates.

Court of Baltimore, relative OF tho
poet, and the Misses Herring, who
lived in the neighborhood, had call
ed at DR.. MOran's invitation TO see
the dS ing man. The end was rap
idly approaching. Poe was nncon'
scious for half all hour; but, being
reused, he was conscious. lie
showed all the signs OF speedy dis
solution. Professor Monku, OF tho
Facnlty, came in. He said OF Poe :
{ lie is dying and said also that
his death was the result of excessive
nervous prostration caused by e1-
posure. Poe indicated that he de-
sired a drink. DR.. Moran gave
him a bitof ice and glass Of water.
Poe drank half the water. 10 re-
vived him. lie opened his eyes
and fixed them on the window, gaz-
ing steadily for more than a minute.
He seemed to be talking to himself.
AT last he said: Doctor, it's all
over DR.. Moran then said; MT.
Poe, ! must tell you that you are
near your end. Have you any wish
or words for friends ? He answer.
ed: Never more Then he eI-
claimed 'Oh God is there no
ransom for the deathless spiritf
Yes said DR.. Moran, look to your
Saviour; there is mercy for you and
all mankind. God is living and
the gift is free. Then said Poe: {:
Z He who arched the heavens and
upholds the universe has His de.
crees legibly written upon the front
let of every human being and de-
mons incarnate.' These seem TO
have been his last words, for DIR.
Moran closes the scene thus: Il
then consoled him by saying: He
died for you aud me aud all man.
kind. Trust in His mercy The
CLASSY eyes rolled back; there vas
a sudden tremor, and the immortal
soul Of Edgar Allan Poe was borne
swiftly away to the spirit world
The book closes with An account
OF Poe's funeral, which was seemly
il simple, DIR. Moran making all the
necessary arrangements at his own
personal expense, without rsim-
bursement to this day. The full
suit of black which Poe wore in his
plain, imitation poplar coffin was
contributed in pieces by the good
Doctor and two medical students.
The body was not hurried into the
grave; it lay in state in the adjoin-
ing college building from the 7th
to 9th Of October, being visited by
many people. Fifty ladies, the
Doctor thinks, obtained locks of
the dead poets hair.
