How Ii Is Worked.

"People get off a great many
very ancient jokes about the big
diamonds worn by hotel clerks, "
remarked a salesman the other
night, "and as a result more per-
sons have gotten the idea into their
heads that those same diamonds
are nothing but chunks of paste"
"Do you wish the great reading
public to infer that they are any,
thing else?"
81 do just that. Most of the
diamonds worn by hotel clerks are
genuine. A few days ago I saw a
hotel clerk from whose breast one
of the largest and purest diamonds
| ever saw glittered. But, of course,
he didn't pay for it, and to tell the
truth it didn't belong to him."
1t didn't belong to him?"
mo, my dear boy, it didn't"
He was wearing it for an advertise
ment. A great many jewelry firms
advertise their goods in just that
way. Almost any watering place
you may 60 to you will see the ho-
tel clerks blazing with diamonds
that will make your eyes bulge ont.
It's a good dodge for the jeweler
and it pleases the clerk"
"But how is the jeweler bene-
fited?"
"Well, it doesn't cost anything
to let a clerk wear diamond a few
months, and during that time rich
visitors are sure to inquire about
the stone, ask where it was pur-
chased and so on. The clerk, of
course, tells what house it came
from, recommends the visitor to 60
there and often gives him a note of
introduction to the proprietor"

yember, 1885,, and intimate that the total
shortage win be from $4,000 to sl00,00 "
John +. Stuart, weigher, was also arrested
The inspectors say they find that the Daily
News Publishing company paid him nearly
81 900 more from November, 1884, TO Novem-
Der, 1885, than the amount he turned over to
the government. They also allege that dur
ing the sam period the Western News com
pany paid him about 5000 more than he re-
turned 70 Washington. They have still to
inspect the accounts OF all the newspapers
which had papers mailed there during Col
Bottoms incumbency. Col. Bolton was ap-
pointed by Postmaster Palmer in 1877. The
arrests of these two are very likely to be fol
lowed by more, Is the inspectors have dis.
covered "A private memoranda belonging to
Col. Bolton which, they claim, duplicates y
number Of federal officials and even privat,
citizens. The postofiice inspectors continued
their examination Of Col. Bottoms books this
morning, and find Nh additional deficit OF

the inspectors, and Second Assistant WeigheI

BRADSHAW, Neb., July 24.-Charles Matheny
shot and probably fatally Wounded Andrew
Doran, a prominent farmer living three miles
north Of this place, yesterday. Matheny had
been working for Mr.. Doran for some time
and had part Of his farm rented. A difference
arose between the men about q month age
over their settlement, involving B, which
Matheny declared he would have or take
Doran's life. AT the breakfast table be made
an insulting remark concerning the ~vituals,
whereupon Doran ordered him to leave his
place. He went up stairs, and coming down
with a cooked revolver in his hand, without q
moments warning fired at Mr.. Doran while
at the table surrounded by lis family
The ball struck Doran just above
the left nipple, about two inches
over the heart, s%tr.Aiu. tho fourth rib
and following it to the shoulder blade where
it lodged. Mrs. Doran fieu frotH the house
but was followed by Matheny, who discharged
the revolver at her and compelled her to re-
turn to the mouse under penalty Of death. She
escaped to the neighbours, however, while he
was picking up to leave and gave the alarm.
Matheny then carle TO Bradshaw and gave
himself mp. Drs. Allen and Moore, Of Brad
shaw and DIR. Shedier Of York, were called

shooting is pronounced by all to have been
done without the slightest proyocation.
Tie case is being heard In Justice Byrne's

interpreter, who has just returned
from Cape Chidley. the extreme north western
point of Labrador reached ny sledge, gives a
heartrending account of the terrible destitu-
ton and suffering which tie Esquimaux and
Indian farmers are enduring along the Lab
rador coast. On Cape Chidley $50 souls are
distributed over m area Of several miles.
The entire food supply gave out early In
March. The seal catch was very small. As
the season wore on the seal failed TO come
near enough 10 shore to be caught. The cold
was intense and many OF the older people
died OF exposure and lack OF nourishment.
On june -, when the guide left, the mercury
stood at - below zero and had been lower.
The ice for several hundre miles was solid for
a depth OF from 10 TO LOG feet, and snow was
piled mountain high. At least eighty per
sons have p,rished since March | between,
Cape Chidly and Cape Mugford, and only
four survivors were found in the rude shanties
along the coast. These accompanied the
guide to Cape Musford. The bodies of eight
cen victims were ali frozen stiff. The clothes
had been taken from them, evidently to keep
life in the bodies OF the miserable survivors,
who IN turn had died while out 6shing or aft, r
seals. Seventeen bodies were found along
siorc. Twenty-four persons including six
woine and three small children,
are known to have persisted at Cape
Mugford, where on June ~ there were
only twenty barrels Of meat and forty barrels
OF corn -four. The potatoes had been gone
since early tn May. There were less than 100
quintais OF dsh and no clothing in store al
all. The residents, numbering about 300
persons, were worn and pinched from famine
and cold. In the outlying districts at least
one-half Of the population had died. There
was no sign Of the ice breaking up, and the
natives had nothing to exchange for food or
clothing. Seventy-five EsquiInaux from Asto-
ria, six miles from the cape, made an attack
ON the stores NJ NugforG. The men were
rendered desperate by hunger.

and which he claims to be among
che foremost questions of the age:-
If the young ladies of Honolulu

would they raise enough money to
buy punch and judy show? If
these Islands should fall through the
crust of the earth, where would they

Why is it thac fellow can't take a
