An Ingenious Beggar.
New York Tribune.

The Broadway street railroad is
afflicted with q beegar whose ways
are at least ingenious. He is accus-
toned to stop car on a downtown
trip IN the evening when the passen-
gers are not SO busy but that they can
look upon their neighbors. He then
appears inside, a picture of cold and
ragged misery. His one leg is assisted
by q broken down pair of crEtches,
and his unkept beard completes a
wretched appearance. Not q word
does he speak, but sits with most de-
jected air, his head bent upon his
shoulders, until the conductor inter
rups his saddened thoughts by de-
mand for his fare. After long and
anxious struggles in ragged pockets
he fishes out four pennies, but seeks
in vain for the fifth, A gulp or two
of suppressed emotion, then q tear
that will escape, and he gives a
pite0us look at his neighbor as he
holds out the four coppers in his hand
and asks gently for the fifth, saying
that he thought he had just enough.
The repressed emotion OF the passen-
gers at such gentleness and modesty
in distress burst forth. and in spite of
all the poor mans efforts to prevent
the shame of taking assistance, TWEEN
ty or more coppers pour into his lap.
He murmurs something about a good
room once more, and his head SINKS
down again. But the memorable
conductor taps his shoulder once more
with his demand for fare.
Conductor, where does the car
gO?'' says the poor man in broken
voice, still choking with emotion.
Battery" is the conductors la
conc reply.
Great Scott Man! Don't you
know I want to go to Delmonico's?"
And, with a hearty laugh, the cripple
Is safe in the steet, ready for the next
car, before the conductor can grab
him to give him the shaking he so
richly deserves.

She Danced.
Merchant Traveller.

Al Sproule, one of Chicago's pref
test and sweetest travelling men, was
up in Michigan, not very long ago
and was caught over night in a very
little town. There was danes on for
that evening, and Al concluded that
he would accept an limitation and
swing the country lassies for awhile.
He went to the dance and danced
with every girl there except one
scrawny one, who had sat all evening
in the corner waiting for 3 partner. Al
took pity on her at last and putting
on most angelic smile he "shassay-
ed" up to her.
"An, num-" he said, 'do you
dance, Miss?"
Yes, sir, she replied quickly.
"Yes2 May I have the pleasure Of
dancing with you in the next set?"
''You bet you kin, young Teller, for
I've sot and sot, till I've about tuck
root
Al did the graceful in shape and the
girl stuck to him the balance of the
evening.

Robinson CruS0e in Bronze.
st. James Gazette.

In circumstances somewhat remark
able a bronze statue has been unveiled
OF Robinson Crusoe in the Scotch vii
lage OF Largs, which, as everyone
does not know, gave birth to Aiexan-
der Selkirk. The memorable features
of the day were-frst, that statue
the assistance of Lord E )seberv: and
second, that the Earl of Aberdeen,
who presided, made the surprising
confession that until he was invited to
be present at the ceremony ne had not
read Defoe's immorisl work. Frature
one Is, however, more astounding than
feature two: for it subsequently, ap-
peared that the Earl Of Aberdeen had
not read Robinson Crusoe" when a
boy merely because it had been SO fire.

4 Noble Western Girl.
Bismarck Tribune.

Miss Belle Franklin, a young
schoolmistress of McHenry county, is
the heroine OF the Missouri slope.
Miss Franklin was sleeping in shack
which she had built upon her claim.
when she was awakened by the crack,
ling noise Of the prairie fire. Look
ing out across the plain she saw the
dancing flames skimming across the
prairie. The brave girl knew that her
neighbors, living a halt mile distance,
were away from home, and the fire
would soon envelope the house, barn,
hay, aud grain. Jumping from her
bed she hurried away to the low
log barn in which the farmers extra
team was tied. Harvesting the ami
mails she pushed them out to the piow,
and before the fire had reachad the
premises she had turned several fur
roughs and formed a fire break which
saved the property. What subject

constant increase in the snow and,
as a consequence, an early advance Of
the glaciers had been expected. The
latter had actually taken place ia the
western Alps. But In the year 1885
the indications are the same as in 1866.
The masses are every where consider
ably decreasing. Ia the ST. Gothard
region, by the Todi, and the surround
ing mountain chains Prof. Helm
found this summer that the snow had
retreated, even as compared with last
year. This has had disagreeable con
sequences. Pastures which formerly
had been moistened by the waters
issuing from small snow fields during
the whole Of the summer are now
dried up, Springs formerly fed by
snow water have disappeared. The
areas fOrssken by snow and glacier
are now stony deserts, which will
change to pastures only after the lapse
Of many years. Depressions in the
snow, formerly easily crossed, have
been turned into dangerous glacier
passes. In many places, where form
erly the snow fields closely joined the
rocks, having become thinner, they
are more intersected than ever. Look
Jag down from the summit of the Todi
on Aug Is, DR.. Helm was greatly
struck by the dirty gray color of the
surrounding snow-felds, IN contrast
to their dazzling wilderness Of former
years. This is the result, he says, of
the continual melting of the snow
and the concentration of dust particles
on the surface of the melted layers.
Extensive slopes, which formerly re
manned constantly covered with snow,
are now completely free from it. It
is therefore, considered probable by
him that the growth of the glaciers
will take 3 long time, for 1t must first
be proceeded by an accumulation of
snow in the snowy regions.

THE POSTAGE STAMPS BIRTH.
Some Interesting Facts and Figures
About the Greatest MOdern Com
yeBtsnce.
Philadelphia Press.

Philadelphia Press.
"You would be astonisbe said
Chief Clerk Wunder at the postoffice
recently, how few people know any
thing about the origin Of the postage
stamp.
'The postage stamp in the United
States, said Mr.. Wunder, sis less
than 40 years old, and, although the
third to adopt the system, now leads
in the number issued by almost four
times as many as the next highest
stan1p-uslng country, which is Eng
land. This latter country was the
first to adopt the stamp in 1910. Bra-
I'll followed close in her footsteps in
1913, aad the United States in 1S47.
THE governments of 2I1 countries
now issue postage stamps. All these
are cut ranked by America, whose
annual output OF letter stamps is
100000, 200. Of the $4,000 00O, 900
letters sent under stamp through the
mails annually. England is credited
with 700. 0000 00 Japan now mails
annually $4,000, 900 letters, and the
Cancelled stamps on these letters are
worth an average of one cent each.
Last year there were $4,000 letters
posted in England without any ad-
dress on them. In 1900 OF these gold
coins and money were inclosed. The
Cancelled postage stamps Of many
countries are worth quite as much as
unused specimens, and many are issu-
ed solely for collections, the revenue
being an important item. Monaco is
the latest to Issue stamps; but Stella
land, with its so houses and three
stores, is probably the most lnsignif-
cant, even more SO than Heligoland
or the Virgin islands. Bhopal has
the Oldest stamp, Nicaragua the finest,
Siberia the largest Zealand the small
est, Guatemala the most striking, and
SarawaB and Great Britain divide the
honor of having the cheapest and
meanest,"

Too Much Celebration.
Texas Siftings.

Gilboo1y is a great fellow for cele-
bratlng events. On Monday he cele-
5rated the birthday Of some member
of the family. On Wednesday is the
anniversary of his wedding; and for
almost every other day in the week he
has got some pretext for getting up q
celebration, which usually means
leafug. He was to open a cigar store
on the 1st Of January. A friend who
had passed by his place of business
perceived that the doors were closed.
Meeting him next day, the friend
said:
Il thought you were to open your
new place of business"
80 7 did,"
"But [ passed by and saw that the
place was closed up"
''Of course the doors were closed.
I had to celebrate the opening of the
new store, so [ had to close up. See?'

Taken In by Smooth SWindIer.

4 French nobleman played a game
of ecarte with a foreign count. The
latter won, and the FreHchnan pulled
out 10, 600 francs and handed them to
the winner, who quietly secured them
in his pocket-book and went home.
Early next morning gentleman
of aristocratic bearing and decorated
with the order of the legion d'honneur

A High Born Chinese Girl.
London Figaro.


London society Will be interested
next season by the presence Of a Chi
nese young lady of some IL or 12sum-
ners. The MoEgol maiden In cues
ton is the daughter of the new Chi
nese ambassador to France and EGG
land, who, though now in Paris, will
be here early in the new year. This
daughter, fer whom he sent as soon
as ne found his stay in Europe would
be probably q prolonged one, arrived
in Paris week ago, and though, like
all Chinese girls of high birth, only
able to walk, or rather ''toddle," with
great difficulty on her compressed
feet, is said to be a most merry and
sprightly young lady, with large as
sortment of the most deliciously quaint
Chinese dolls, over which the Paris
ian ladies are going into ecestasies.
