THE POWER OF INFLUENCE.

Everywhere is the power of infiu-
ence recognized fact and a potent fac
tor in all business relations and of all
enterprises, whether of public or pri-
vate nature. 1t is no less a power for
agents to introduce and sell to the pub
lie new schemes, patent on art and
mechanism, new works on science and
literature; or, the hundreds Of other
means for operating upon an unsus-
pecting and confding public. Along
they come Prospectus in hand OBJ
ject recommended by the leading
''dailies,' judges, attorneys, clergy and
other leading citizens Ready to
swoop down and scoop up all the rest
of mankind-we only mean their little
change and nickels, five and ten dollar
bills and from that on up to fifties, ow-
ing to the claptrap, binding and de-
scriptive fingers, and whose only object
is is to "bag the game" whether man
kind is benefited or not. Moreover,
they care not whether mankind Is ben
efitted or not. The general public are
very largely dependent upon the press,
judges, attorneys, clergy and other
leading citizens for their safety against
the encroachments of masked frauds,
"little or big'-hence they should be
very careful what they recommend. 1t
often leads to suspicion that they are
hired agents, and rewarded for their
influence to cheat the lower classes
whose every energy is strained to the
utmost to keep even with the world.

From the New York World.
Some curious new faucies are to be found
in fashions for women, and in the course of
a season of shopping ones IDEAS of the
luxury and the striving after novelty of
women whose lives are given up to dress
become very much widened. One of these
extravagant fancies is to have bedroom
slippers covered with feathers, either tho
strippings from ostrich plumes in soft
French gray or white, or pale-pink and
blue. These feathers are sewed carefully,
tapping over each other upon the satin Of
the slipper, and give an effect of great soft
ness and warmth. But they are suited
only for the possessers of small, slim feet,
for they materially increase the size of
them, in appearance at least, Others have
the downy breasts of birds or the metallic
sheen of the neck feathers of wild ducks,
laid smoothly upon the slipper, as carefully
and beautifully done as the famous MeXi-
| can feather-work. Another fancy is the
embroidered white gants de Suede, to be
worn at balls and with very elaborate white
toilettes, with seed pearls in flower devices.
These are somewhat heavy, and again only
| women with slender eXtremities dare show
these freaks of fancy upon themselves.
But the effect in little SLIM hand is very
rich and adds certain tone to the whole
| costume.

The Presidents Residence.
HE DOES NOT INTEND TO ABANDON HIS
CITIZENSHIP OF NEW YORK.

1t is said at the White House that
the story from Buffalo, alleging that
the President has given up his resi-
dence in that city, is not true. As
published, Mr.. Cleveland is still a pror-
erty owner and taxpayer in Buffalo,
His temporary residence in Washing
ton does not hurt his citizenship in
New York at all, So long as he does
not vote somewhere else, he has the
right to renew his privileges in Buffalo
whenever he returns to the city. When
there was suffrage in the District of
Columbia a number of residents from
the States forfeited their citizenship
elsewhere by voting there
1t has not been customary for the
President TO 90 home TO vote, Up to
the end of General Grants second term
he had never voted Tor President but
once, and that was for Mr.. Buchanan,
in 1853, at place, too, where he had,
as he said, no right to aast his vote.
He had been into st. Louis, was re-
turning home and stopped just outside
the city at a polling precinct. lie
was asked if he had vote, and when
he said he was not likely to reach home
in time to vote there he availed him
self of the privilege of voting where
he did for the Buchanan aud Brecken
ridge electors, President CLEVELAND
will not again, probably exercise tn,
franchise during his term as President
He certainly does not intend, however
to abandon his citizenship in New
York to become a citizen of the Dis
trict Of Columbia.

Benedict and the Contractors.

The Pittsburg Dispatch says that
Mr.. Benedict, the new Public Printer,
has already got into row with some
of the paper contractors. Heretofore
whenever they had bad paper rejected,
they would 90 to Washington, obtain
a hearing, use all their influence in va
rious ways, and often end in getting
their paper through, when it obviously
did not come up to the requirements.
Mr.. Benedict is determined TO put a
stop to this, Recently, according to
.he Dispatch, several hundred reams
of book paper were passed by the
office board, but attention was called
to the fact that it was not up to the
grade. An allowance of three points
is made for varying thickness or
weight and this particular batch ran
about nine points. The Public Printer
made personal examination and re-
iected the whole. He ordered it i'm
mediately shipped back to the con-
tractors, and ordered fresh lot else
where.
| The contractors were notified of the
rejection. In accordance with their
custom one of them Immediately came
to town and called on Mr.. Benedict
He said he was sorry the paper was
not up to the required grade, but the
fact was they had had some trouble
with their boilers, and the paper had
run unusually uneven. Mr.. Benedict
said he thought it had, but he had moi
time to talk about it now. The con
tractor blankly inquired if he could
not be allowed to pick out what would
pass and average things up. Mr.
Benedict said he had held court OF
that paper yesterday and had decided
the case and ordered the paper return
ed.
"Why, you have not sent it back ?
exclaimed the astonished.
81 ordered it shipped back. If i
has not gone I'll discharge the ma

How Ants Live,
THEIR LOVE OF CLEANLINESS AND THEIR
MODES OF BURIAL


In spite of the multifarious duties
and tasks that are imposed on those
tiny burghers, they still find time to
clean and adorn their worthy little per-
sons, says a writer in the Cosmopolitan
for October No spot, no atom of
dust or anything else uncleanly will
tolerate on their bodies. They get rid
of the dirt with the brushy tufts on
their feet or with their tongues. They
act, for all the world, like domestic
cats when they clean and lick them
selves and they assist one another at
the toilet precisely like monkeys. Their
sense OF cleanliness goes so far that the
naturalist often finds, to his unpleasant
surprise, the colored marks that he had
applied with so much care on his "trial
ants" removed by their dirt-hating
friends. They keep their dwellings
just as cleanly.
But the conveying away OF their de-
ceased brethren, whose dead bodies
they appear to regard with the great
est antipathy, gives them more trouble
than anything else. When some mem
bers of an ant community, which MIR.
Cook kept imprisoned, died and could
not be removed, those remaining SEEM
ed affected with the greatest horror.
For days the insects ran about seeking
a way out, and ceased only when COM
pletely exhausted. The ants belonging
to the camponotus species seized the
dead and threw them into water
pail, which they converted into sep
ulchre. Ordinarily, though, the ants
are said to treat their dead with more
reverence. They even possess their
own graveyards, which lie in the vi
cinity of their nests. They convey
their deceased companions thither,
where they lay them down in orderly
little heaps or in rows.
1t is only the corpses of their fellows
however, that they treat in this manner.
Dead strangers they throw out like
something unclean, or tear The body in
pieces. Even between the master and
| slaves of the same community Miss
Treat says she has observed a disslni-
lar mode of burial While the masters
| find their last repose in a special grave
yard, side by side, the slaves lie like
heaped-up refuse near the nest, despised
equally in death as in life.
The ant cemeteries are often thickly
populated, for their life is short. Tne
male lives only through one Summer;
the females live somewhat longer, and
the workers lie of old age in the Sth
and 10th year.

A Business Revival in Erin's Isle.
BY Cable to the New York World.

By Gable to the New York World.
Very encouraging information is
coming in from Ireland. There has
been an unexpected subsistence of dis
turbances and there are many evi-
dences that the people are devoting
themselves more to the ordinary bust
ness pursuits of life than they have
been doing for many years. Many
purchases of land are being made un-
der the Ashbourne act and there is an
increase of peaceable and concilia-
tory feeling on the part of the land
lords towards tenants. Another good
sign is that the country fairs held this
fall have been better attended than for
a long time and the exhibits MOI e
numerous and of a better character
than usual. There is an abundance OF
farm produce and fair prices are re-
ceived for large quantities of cattle and
sheep sent to English markets. Strange
as it may appear, there is genuine
business revival in Ireland and this ii
to be helped along by the government
which is working very hard on the
question of supplying the Irish peopl,
with the means of more general EN-
lployment,

Hotel Keepers Responsibiiity.

An interesting point of hotel law was re-
Gently decided by Judge Fiuletter, of
Philadelphia, in the suit of Charles A.
Poland against Thomas II. Green. The
plaintiff boarded at Green's Hotel and had
a valise full of clothing stolen from his
room. He sued to recover Its value and
the defendant claimed that he was not
liable because of a provision printed at tho
top of the register that goods" must be
checked at the counter to make the pro
prietor responsible. The Judge held that
the proprietor of hotel was always re-
sponsible for the goodAof his guest unless
there was an express contract to the con-
trary. The printing of such a provision
at the TOP of IA register without calling it
to the guests attention, was not such an
express contract, The jury accordingly
rendered verdict in favor Of the plaintiff

:ARcHITEcT AND BUILDER.

An Anscdoto Illustrating the Difference
Between the Two Professions.
Architects are fond of telling an
amusing story which tends to illustrate
the difference between house-builders
and members of their own profession.
1t appears that Mr.. Alexander, an emi'
nent English architect, was in a certain
lawsuit under cross-examination by .
distinguished barrister who wished to
detract from the weight OF his testimo.
ny, and who, after asking him his names
proceeded:
"You are builder, I believe ?"
mo. sir" was the reply, II am not
builder; am an architect"
They are much the same sup-
~ beg your pardon, sir; I can not
admit that; / consider them to be to-
tally different"
"Oh, indeed! perhaps you will state
wherein this great difference exists.
San architect, sir" replied Mr.. Alex.
ander, "conceives the design, prepares
the plan, draws out the specifications,
in short, supplies the mind; the builder
is the bricklayer or the carpenter. The
builder, in fact, is the machine; the
architect, the power that puts the ma
chine together and sets it going"
oh, very well, Mr. Architect" said
the lawyer; "and now, after your in.
genious distinction without difference,
perhaps you can inform the court who
was the architect of the Tower OF
Babel?"-to which question Mr. Alex
ander made the prompt and telling re-
joinder:
There was no architect, sir, and
hence the confusion. Geo. j. Manson,

"The chief of the Macdonald clan
among the North Carolina emigrants
had been given, whether through policy
or not, a commission as General in the
British Kings army. The Stuart bust
ness being over and done with, there
probably appeared to him no reason
why he should not take it. He summoned
all loyal Highlanders to meet under his
standard and march with him to join
General Clinton.
"They did so, fifteen hundred strong,
but were met by the rebels against
King George-and in no State was the
feeling that led to our independence
more ardent than in North Carolina
and Caswell and Moore routed them in
q desperate fight, and among those
taken prisoners was Flora's husband.
'tWhen Captain Macdonald was at
last released, his land was confscated,
his property gone, his hopes shattered,
and he took his wife and shipped for
Scotland. It was on the way home in
this British ship, that they encountered
French frigate; and of course there
was sea-fght.
"But Flora Macdonald did not 90 be.
low then, and spend her time between
screaming and praying, as some women
might have done. She stayed on deck
through the whole action, binding up
wounds, encouraging and helping, and
presently she had her arm broken for
her pains.
az have hazarded my life, she said,
for the House of Stuart and for the
House of Hanover; and l do not see
that | am q great gamer by either Of
them.
"But she was satisfied in having the
French frigate beaten, and she reached
Scotland at length in safety. She
must have been woman Of iron nerves,
/ think. She had five sons, all Of
whom were soldiers. And when she
died at last, her shroud was made Of
the sheets in which the Prince Charles
Edward had slept at Kingsburg."
"And is that alp" l asked, as grand.
ma stopped and put on her glasses.
isn't that enorgh?" she returned
l thought perhaps the truth might serve
your purpose as well as the romance, i
it is not so charming. But, you see, i

The Christian Church at Shoa-hing,
China, has pleasant and practical way
of taking up collections for the support
of the preacher. A long bamboo tube
which is fastened to the wall is inscribed
God loveth a cheerful giver." Each
church member is expected to drop into
this tube every Sunday morning what-
ever he can afford. The members are
mostly poor people, and their gifts ara
small, but they are trained in the habit
of giving something each week. Thus
the preachers support is regular, even
if not princely.-N Y. Examiner.
