A Man of Much Wardrobe.

One exquisite youth. who lives not 1000
miles from New York, and whose soul i:
bound up in waistcoats and neckties, is here
sorting his twenty pairs of boots and getting
his wardrobe in order for the summer cam
paign. Last August he was thrown head
over heels out of q dog cart on the ocean
drive. They picked him up half senseless, and
were trying to discover the extent of his in
jurics, when, true to his instincts he gasped
family: ooh, nevah mind me. See to my
tile and my trousahs!'
He persuaded his mamma to enroll herself
among the cottagers here, which, after much
urging, she consented to do stipulating that
she should have no care or worry about
the housekeeping until he agreed to take it off
her hands, So he haunted the shops last sea-
son to find bargains in the way of tea and
sugar, and convulsed the tradesmen by his
elegant ignorance. One day two ladies, who
were making some purchases in grocer's
shop, were suddenly astonished at hearing
voice say in u languid drawl: Il want some
of that stuff to put in soup-looks like worms,
dontcher lnow:" and, turning round in un-
restrainablo curiosity, they beheld this famous
specimen OF the genus dude, and, further
more had the pleasure of seeing him invest
in pound of -four, which he ordered sent
home, together with the stuff that looked like
worms. However, this is an exceptional

Strange as it may seem, this bleak group OF

but it appears in different light when we
wonder where the 500 found foothold at one

scant soil for their graves
The old stone church, erected in 1701, is
one of the most appropriate monuments of
the past. It contains records of all the
early land grants, the census. etc, besides
mention of the struggle to convert ard

"The process of pearl formation is still q

the most eminent naturalists attribute it to
the accidental Introduction Of some irritat-

pearls, however, under the microscope, have
been found hollow in the interior, and others
which are completely solid to the center

tinuous circular texture without the slight

in most cases the productive cause, there are
others Of q minor nature at work The Chin

the production of pearls by carefully pierc.

white pearls are the most staple in Eu-

Tony BIS Last Scoop.
1t is not SO many years ago that Tony
B, the attache of central Iowa paper,
now defunct, rode out from southern Iowa
city, one bright morning, perched daringly
on the brake of fiat car that was attached
to a "wild freight" and loaded with iron rails.
He was like other reporters, made up OF vices
and virtues-only the first seen by the world,
the latter best known by his intimate friends.
He had been in newspaper work for about
six years, was thoroughly capable, and
scored more scoops" than was ever recorded
against him. This, in the eyes of the city
editor, insured his entrance into paradise.
To make the story short, forty miles out
from its starting point the 'wild' freight,
with leap of madness and terrible crash,
went through bridge, down sixty feet, and
Tony sitting on the brake beam. 1t was over
in an instant Such things don't wait for
time to catch up with them. When the COLI

Tony, lying across the side of dismantled
box car, on his chest o heavy rail, his legs
crushed, and dying. Beyond him lay q dead
brakeman: the engineer was buried under his
machine, and by a large bowlder was tho fire
