STREET TALK.

w. B. Howell. whistling of steam
boats and the shrieking OF locomotives
about the river front during the night is
outrageous and very annoying to guests al
the numerous ho,els on Water street,
Boats arriving at the dead of night, and not
departing until late next day, announce the
fact BY prolonged blowing OF whistles, as
if they expected the whole population to
embark at once. II IL uncslled for, and
an urgent protest should be entered against
the nuisance.
G. w. Humbertson, Commercial Trav-
eler II am told Wheeling is conservative
place. Well. l should think 1t was,

ever, taking sill things into considers,

tiiug. You have handsome women, poor
pavements. proud looking policemen, and,
what strikes me as remarkable, fewer dudes
than any place of equal size IN (which l
have been in. Thus is evidently because
your city is place where everybody works
at something--thst is when not on
strike.

one of our most imperative duties. But
when bog is more intimate with the col,
ored man about the stables than ne is
with his own father this injunction
becomes difficult of application. Another
common error in this connection is that OF
uistsking mere teaching for training, and
the fact that thousands who are familiar
with the sciences are entirely deficient IN
training. does not seem to point the moral
with sufficient force to correct the evil,
Intelligent S,riker.-Sts,istics show that
the productiveness Of labor has been
greatly increased by shortening the hours
of the workmen. This movement is oppos-
ed Just like any other innovsiion. There

Miss Jennie smiths Meetings

The meeting held by Mi8a Jennie Smith,
the evangelist, at the lower market square,
yesterday afternoon, was an immense sue
cess. The large plaza was covered with
people, and Miss Smith worked up great
interest in one Of her enthusiastic aud tell

principally directed to the workingmen, and
railroaders especially. The meeting last
night was also interesting and enthusiastic
and the succeeding ones will be just as
much and more so.

The Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot, who scandalized the British aristocracy some time ago by en- gazing in trade, having put f20, 900 into the cab business in Lon don, has now added to his commer cial undertakings by retailing coal. The nobility m general. are at last beginning to make themselves use ful. A number of younger sons of noblemen follow agricultural pursuits, and have opened milk and butter shops in London. Lords and Dukes now dabble open ly in the Stock Exchange. A Duchess resigned her place as lady-in-waiting to the Queen some tune ago to open a millinery shop because there was more money in it, and the Earl of Kcnmare, Chamberlain to her Majesty the Queen, whose Irish tenants cannot or will not pay him any rent on his deeply-incumbered estates, is about to establish a number of gin shops in London.

A machine for shearing sheep is said to be in successful operation in Victoria. It is made of brass, in the shape of a small trowel. The motion is actuated by a small turbine-wheel, about 3 inches in diameter, geared into another wheel, on which is fixed a cutter. In front is comb, serving as a guard against cutting the skin. The steam is conveyed from the boiler by an India rubber tube, which is double, having one inside the other. The inner one is the injection, and the space between the two the election. The machine Is used in the same fashion as the shears, but cuts, it is stated, much quicker and far cleaner, without the least danger of injuring the fleece or the sheep.

He was a real nice young man, wore good clothes, went to Sunday school with regularity, and had an excellent opinion of his own moral character. He walked into great clothing store in search of a situa- ton, and said:

 "Any experience?" asked the head of the great establishment.
 Not much; but I am a man of good habits"
 "So?"
 'Yes. l never swear, drink, nor chew; never play cards nor go to the races; don't bet on baseball games or run around at night"
 Anything else!"

For many years the recognized sporting authority in England was Bells Life in London. Its reports on horse-racing, pedestrianism, and other sports could not be sur passed, and its owners thought it's foundation so secure that 1t could not be disturbed. The progressive tendencies of people, however, could not brook the idea of waiting five or six days for news, and en- terprising journalists jumped in ahead of Bell and took a position in the daily journal line iron which they could not be moved. Only too late Bell awoke: First a seml- weekly and then an every other day edition was printed, and finally a daily was essayed. Bell remain ed, good authoritative journal on prize-tighting, horse racing, and coursing until it died, which event transpired Tn the paper of May %, 1886. Thousands of Eng lishmen as we'll as Americans will be sorry to hear of its demise, as it was a landmark in the sporting world.-Exchange.

The art of photography has been so simplifed and cheapened of late years that there are now 30,0O0 amateur photographers in this country. An apparatus is now produced which enables a tourist to make hundreds of pho tographs without even the trouble of putting in and taking out a glass plate, sensitive paper being used. The operator has simply to turn crank at the top of his camera and take the cap off his lens when he wants a picture. The camera contains two rollers, upon which is wound the sensitive pa per. In passing from one roller to another the paper passes across the field of the camera and re- ceives the picture. The number of pictures depends upon the length of the roll of paper. Fair outfits are now sold for SIP, and some of the cheap lenses costing S4 or S5 will do as good work as those costing ten times as much. The superiority of one photogra- pher over anotheris entirely mat ter of skill and taste.-Exchange

How Public and Private Confidence Is
Destroyed by Dishonesty.
.Do you know what is running this
country?" said Judge Burke; Il will
tell YOU 1t is not over-production but
it is the dishonesty of the people that
destroys public and private confidence.
I'll give you an example OF dishonesty
practiced upon me by party named
Jimpleson. He came to my house
one day and told me that he had
one of the best schemes in the world.
Said that he had gold mine not
fHr away, and that if he only had
a little gold with which to salt il
he could sell the claim for hundred
thousand dollars. He was so plausible,
talked so fairly, that was completely
taken in. went with him and looked
at the mine. was in need of about
fifty thousand dollars so i concluded 10
let him have the gold. He said that he
could take a gold piece, CRATE it of and
so skillfully imbed it in the sand that
no one could detect our scheme. How
much gold will it take?' l asked.
20, about three hundred dollars. |
can take that amount and make the
place worth at least one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars to u.s."
Il gave him the money and he got a
CRATER and went out to the mines.
Several days afterward he invited
me to come out He had done his work
well. We invited capitalists to come
and make us bid. My partner was
not present when an assay was made.
Good thing for him that he wasn't He
had salted the mine with copper dust
and had kept the gold. l have no,
seen him since. Now, don't you sec.
lost confidence in him. He is not an
honest man.-Arkansdw T'rdrcier.

A Short.Necked Goddess.

Il never look at the figure on the
dome of the Capitol. said Washing
tonian the other day. without feeling
sorry for the poor Goddess of Liberty.
Poor old lady. she's up there with little
or no neck. and every time l look up
her head looks as if it was sinking
further and further down into her
shoulders, remember the time when
she was FIRST placed there. The figure
was sent for inspection before 1t was
raised to its place. and the committee in
charge came around to see it. OF course
the neck was several feet in length. be-
cause the statue is nineteen feet high.
but, being SO near, the committee in
stantly protested against the length:
and what is worse they actually ordered
that several feet be cut of OF it AT
first protest was made against such .
thing, but the committee said the neck
was TOO long and it hadto be cut OF. It
was done. When the artist heard OF 1t
Il nearly killed him, and no wonder.
Look af the Goddess any time you have
. chsnce audsee how short her neckis."
