DINNER PHILOSOPHY.
The Human Race Divided into -Four Dis
tinct Cias@s.

Prof. Sumner. Of Yale College. di-
vides the human race into three class
e.: people who work to-day To pay for
Yesterdays dinner. people who work to-
day Ia pay for ,o-day's dinner and those
who work to-day To provide a dinner
for tomorrow. But there is a fourth
class quite numerous. those who DO no,
work at all and eat the dinners earned
by others.
There j. a story Of n colored barber
who reformed from hard drinking be-
cause he observed that while he. the
drinking man. bought two pounds u
liver for his family's dinner. the man
who sold him the run bought seven
pounds Of por.er-house steak. H. took
the pledge forthwith. and ate the por.
ter-sou-e ever after. Instead Of drinking
up the price of it.
This incident illustrates another prin-
ciple Of Prof. Summers. which il. that
the only fair WAY for n man To get OF.

for Yesterday into the class who work
to-day 10 provide for tomorrow IL TO

Of $4,000 tons. or rather more than

France. Italy and Russia bring up in
the rear. each with less than 5000 <es-

however. of greater importance than

How the Old Warrior Appropriately Sa-
luted a Crowd of Admirers.
From the Chico (Cal.) Chronicle
july 8: Should Gen. Sherman con
clude to come to Chico during his
present visit to California he would
probably arrive about the time II
casabas are ripe. Everybody will re-
member how he enjoyed that luscious
melon on the occasion of his last visit
to Chico. One morning he ordered
seven courses of casabas for breakfast.
and a wagon load sent out ahead OF
the party when they went to see the
Cherokee gold mine. BY the way, that
was jol., journey, the com
pany being composed of royal good
fellows, who enjoy the pleasures of
life. OF course, President and MRS.
Hayes made the dusty trip to Cherokee
in state. They had a closed carriage
and put on the high AIRS to whicl they
were entitled. Gen. Sherman went
| with the boys" who had rugged mi
large open wagon, which had a seat
ng capacity of twenty-five. 1t re-
sembled a circus band wagon and was
called .thc double-endcr." Besides its
passengers there were several demi-
johns of whisky, boxes of cigars and
fruits. .'Old Tecumseh' occupied the
center seat, and his travelling suit was
covered with a linen buster. Before
they had gone five miles from town
everybody was covered with dust, and
the soldier could not be distinguished
from any of his companions. The tripwas
"A most enjoyable one, and the general
grew as merry and mellow as any of
them. and joined in their songs and
storytelling with the greatest slee>
Arriving at PentZ. II wayside PLACID
they found Il great crowd gathered to
| greet the dusty travellers and to have Il
handshake with the veteran. There
were loud calls for u speech from Sher-
man. Jumping upon one Of the seats
Of the wagon. he scraped the dust from
his eyes, raised his dusty hat, made a
bow and threw a kiss TO the ladies.
Friends" said the old warrior, II
have been swallowing great clouds of
foothill dust AL morning and it will be
impossible for me To make Won II
speech. The best thing | can do is to
drink to your health" He then reached
under the seat and drew forth IA demi-
John, and throwing it upon his arm he
placed the "muzzlc" to his lips and
took a strong pull. The visit to Cher
okee was a most interesting to the
Presidential party, and several blasts
were set of in their honor.

Styles Of Dress Within Twenty Yea

Styles of Dress Within Twenty Years.
Detroit Globe: But once during the
past twenty years have the dress of
women been fair to look upon, and then
they were inconvcnient, and required Il
good figure TO wear them. 1t is a mel
ancholy fact that bat few women have
a good figure. They appear to have,
but the flowing robe hides many de-
fleets; and then. too, there are sundry
aids to a good figure, which can be
taken oft and put on At pleasure, and
which, unattached. would puzzle the
most astutc male person to discover the
use of.
Do YOU remember the c%rinoline,
which made such immense hips that
with the pulled out skirts and long,
tight waists a woman looked like II
pcg-top stuck into u cushion?
Oh, that crinolinc. Those were
the halcyon days for shop
%lifters. A woman could carry of "a
house and lot under these immense
skirts and never be detected. There
actually was Il woman arrested for
stealing pettcd plants from Greenwood
cemetery. who, when she was searched,
was found IL have over $50 worth of
flowers concealed in ingcniously ar
ranged pockets in her voluminous
| skirts.
The Grccian bend was not so bad
after all. 1t was a triile ridiculous, to
be sure, and occasionally the bic hustle
would fetch loose from its mooringS
and would slew around to the leeward,
or would get unhitchcd in some way,
and would wobblc in an alarming fash
ion that led the horriiied observer to
fear that the fair dame was about to
'osc that portion Of her anatomy. But
it was more graceful than that which
preceded it. because it followed the
lines of her figure more closely. The
name was a vile misnomer. There wa1
nothing Grecian about it.
The ''pullback" followed. In theory
this was pretty. The trouble was that
it could only be worn to advantage by
rather tall women, who had moderate
ly good figures. Bnt the pleasure to
be had from gazing upon one such
vision of lOvelincss abundantly repaid
us for the dozens of short, fat figures
which resemble nothing SO much us
badly stuffed sausages. or the Scrawny
woman who looks like sticks Of maca-
roni. The ccl-skin had its advantages

CAUGHT HIM UP.
The Thief Who Robbed bursts Confection-
ery Arrested Yesterday.

The Thief Who Robbed bursts Confection-
cry Arrested Yesterday.
The youthful thief who got in his
work in bursts confectionery, by robbing
the money drawer of about SO in cash,
Tuesday evening, of which mention was
made in yesterday REGISTER, was arrested
yesterday. The supposed bogus policeman
who caught the kid and searched him,
proved to be Officer key, who says the boy
had no money upon his person at
the time and he had no grounds
upon which to arrest him. He
did not see the lad tapping the money
drawer, so the officer was blameless in the
matter.
Officer Junkins told jeff Davis to look
out for the kid, and yesterday afternoon
JEFF spotted him near the Stamm House,
and telephoned for a policeman. Officer
Duffy answered the summons and arrested
the youth and took him to the cooler,
where the prisoner said his nam was Geo.
Strauss and that he had stolen the money,
but passed it over to a confederate before
Officer key searched him. The two boys
went down to Bellaire yesterday and spent
the money, Strauss having only fifty-fiye
cents left when arrested. The police were
after his accomplice last evening. The
fact that Officer key did not report the mat
ter at headquarters at the time and that
Captain Smith knew nothing of it, led to
the natural belief that the officer was some
confederate,
Mr.. burst, last evening, swore out war
rants for both boys, and Strauss was taken
from the lookup to Jail, by Constable
Lauchlin. Up to 2 o'clock the other boy
had not been arrested.
