Some call 1t LUCK, dear brother Jim,
Some term it common sense;
While others still with equal vim
Pronounce it Providence.

TITS well for those, dear brother Jim,
With time and cash to spare
To lift their hearts and hands to Him
In everlasting prayer.
But prayer alone won't win the fight,
In spite of holy writ;
'Tis acts that tell. or wrong or right,
And actions call for grit"
I've seen in trial tests of speed
The horse that balks or breaks,
Although he sometimes takes the lead,
He never takes the stakes.
While
Though slower on the bit,
Is often on the winning side
$ Because he's got the grit"
I've seen ONE fellows in my time,
Good, noble men and strong,
With hearts less human thar divine,
Who couldn't get along.
No matter where you placed them, jim,
They didn't seem to fit;
III AZ na,Jl.S& A
They didn't have the grit
Amid the countless Ills of life,
Its pleasures and its woes,
The strongest factors in the strife
Are steady ticks and blows;
And though we may not always win
We never will submit,
But still wade in, dear brother Jim,
And die like men of grit"

Barnum in an Emergency.

scratching q match on the sole of his
shoe, "barnum was always prepared
for emergenc es." And we thought we
heard q chuckle, but it might have
been the pipestem rafting against his
teeth. 81 remember one occasion. in
particular; when we had pitched our
tents at a large town in Connecticut.
Barnum came around the first night
as usual before the performance, and
found the Sacred Bull stretched on the
ground"

Gas a coffin nail, sir replied the
keeper cholera, / take it.
"'Send a man for that bull we saw

".Put them in a separate cage and

read: .Notice-The hump usually
found on this Dromedary has been alb
sorbed as nutriment; it is expected out

and the ringmaster solemnly contem-
plated the wreaths of smoke as they
rose into the lambient air, and with
feelings of awe we stole silently away,

The Custer Statue Torn Down.

Mt. Sun.
The story Of the recent removal of
the Custer statue from West Point is
very curious. This, it is said, is the
first time a public statue has been taken
down and concealed from sight in con-
sequence of objections based upon ar
tistic considerations.
Not long after the gallant general
persisted in the Indian battle on the
Little Big Horn a subscription was
started to pay for a statue of him to be
erect d at West Point. About ST. oO
was raised and placed in the care OF
Mr.. A. S. Sull van, Mr.. Thurlow Weed
and General Hancock as a committee
to chose an artist and attend to the
erection of the statue. Mrs. Custer
was greatly pleased by the spontaneous
nature of the undertaking. In order
that the statue might be a true like
ness OF her husband, she prepared to
place his photograph, as well as his
uniform and arms, in the hands of the
artist, and to give him such informa-
ton as would aid HIM in his work.
In the meantime j.. w. Macdonald.
a sculptor Of this city, made a model
OF the proposed statue, without con-
su'tlng Mrs. Custer or obtaining from
her the materials which she had pre-.
pared for the execution of the work.
The fund that had been raised was
placed at his disposal, and he com
pleted the statue. Mrs. Custer, it an.
pears knew nothing Of all this until
the monument was ready to be un-
yelled, and she received an invitation
to be present at the ceremony. Her
qualification at the speedy consumma.
ton of the work was quickly changed
to disgust and Indignation when She
saw a u of the statue. 1t represented
her husband in a l~ong-tailed Goa. and
troopers boots, with swordin one hand
n revolver in the other, suggesting
by his attitude and general appearance
a dime-novel hero engaged in his IA
vorite amusement of slaughtering red
skins. The real characteristics of tho
dashing general, it is said, had been
entirely missed or ignored.
Mrs. Custer endeavored to prevent
the erection of the statue, but in vain.
After it had been unveiled some of
Clusters brother officers wrote to her
protesting against the work as an in
suit to her husbands memory. This
strengthened her resolution not to let
it stand, and she appealed to Secretary
Lincoln. Believing she had accom-.
plisiied her object she went to Europe.
hut n her return found the offensive
statue still stand ng on the West
Point bluff. Not disheartened bv the
assurance of some of her friends that
it was mach harder to get rid Of a
statue than to have one erected. She
renewed her application to the secre.
tary of war. He told her that the statne
would be taken down if she obtained
the consent of the chief subscribers
This she did, and the statue has been
pulled from its pedestal. boxed up, and
thrown among y lot of rubbish in a
storage building at West Point.

A Salt Lake jewcler has invented a
novel %timepiece in the shape of a steel
wire stretched across his show window
on which a stuffed canary hops from
left to right, indicating as it goes the
hours of the day by pointing with its
beak at a dial stretched beneath the
wire, and having the figures from one
to twenty-four. When it reaches the
latter figure it glides across the window
to one again. There is no mechanism
whatever that a be seen, it all being
inside the bird. The inventor says he
was three years in studying it out.

England's Guzzling Places.

England drinks coarsely and to ex-

can put up with the drinking habits of
France and Germany, but decency is
so outraged that n can only look
upon the customs of England with
little less than disgust. In the former
countries there are no classes wholly
given over to drink and its brutalities;
no classes that spend all they ean earn,

are just such in every great town of

Col. Tobin's Little Joke.
Sacramento Bee.

sac, anentO bee. .
A few days ago a very dignified and
straight-laced gentleman, accompa-
MED by his wife, came to Sacramento
from an up-country town, for the pur-
pose of taking in the sights of the
capital city. One day they resolved
to make a trip to the dome of the
capitol building, and the gentleman
dropped in on a friend in one of the
state departments and requested the
loan of a pair of field glasses. The
obliging official said he would procure
a par from the ad utant generals Of
flee, and said that with their aid a fine
view could be had of the country for
miles around. He. therefore, went to
the adjutant generals Office and in
formed Col. Tobin-who never misses
an opportunity for q joke-what he
desired. The colonel went into a little
room where the field glasses are kept,
took a pair from their cases, and SUBJ
stituted two empty soda water bottles.
The official took them. handed them
to his up-country constituents, and
they began the tedious ascent. just
what happened in the dome is past
finding out, but when the couple de-
scended they marched in to the state
officials department W tn solemn mein,
deposited the ..field-glasses'' on a
table, and DEPART without so much
as thank you" or .'good-by." The
official was at a loss to understand this
until he opened the case when he de-
sired to return the glasses. To make
matters worse, the bottles smelled
loudly Of a stronger fluid than hat for
which they were originally intended.

South Carolina Spartan.
The young man who knows how to
lay off corn and cotton rows. and to
regulate the distance Of the same SO as
to get the largest crops, is worth a
cowpen full of nice, k%id-gloved, fancy
overcoated fellows who may know how
to lead the german or caper around at
a fashionable waltz. Siding cotton,
setting a plow just right, and adjust
ing gears SO that shoulders and backs
of horses will never hurt, are worth a
thousandfold more to the country than
knowing how to pose in a parlor or
how to adjust the shade of the crayat
to the complexion Of the wearer.

Gloves and Hats.

From the New York Evening Post.
Fresh importations of millinery for the
summer openings of bonnets show many
more models in pokes, gypsies and larger
round hats than have been shown yet Still
the milliners say that the experience of a
year ago is repeated, and that the capote and
the snug princesse bonnets and small fish
wife pokes arc by far preferred for dressy
wear even for the young ladies. Tho larger
varieties are kept in reserve for summer
resorts, where they will be worn, not merely
as shade hats, but for afternoon drives,
etc The most elegant of the large
shapes are made of etamine, Grape, embroi-
dered faille, or surah, and also of flower-bro-
caded satin foulard, matched to a toilet of the
sme The brims are shirred, the crowns
a soft puff, and the garnitures, roses and
lace or ribbon made into rosettes, loops
etc.
Among expensive novelties in French
gloves are medium long ones of the finest
and most delicate kid, the backs Of which
are covered with "A narrow, dainty design,
wrought i'm beads of silver, steel, Jet, pearl,
ETC., to match with the shade of the glove
These gloves look very dressy with suita-
BILE costume and the wonder is that in these
days of embroidery work, ladies do not at
tempt this easy decoration. 1t is easy to OBJ
tain fine delicate pattern on paper, and not
at all difficult TO follow the design in beads
threaded on strong silk. The cost would be
about half that of gloves purchased already
embroidered In the manner described.
