New York World.
Some time ago a romantic and inter
esting story was related to me concern
ing the American bonanza queen, Mrs.
Mackay. Years ago, comfortably sit
uated In a modest home at NOrthpOrt,
i. L, lived a coy little family Of three
father, mother and little daughter.
For time ali went happily along until
the husband and father was taken III;
then came dark days in the cottage, and
a sharp struggle for life was each day
and hour enacted. There came a lull;
kind friends walked gently about with
troubled faces and solemn hush, and that
inde6nabls something which always ac-
companies death seemed to say that all
was over, all suffering had passed away,
and the mortal remains of the father lay
calm and quiet. Mother and daughter
were soon to begin a long, bitter strug-
gle for bread in the great world alone
Across the country whirled the flying
train. On, on it rushed, painting, puff
ing, snOrting, for days, TIL the journey
was ended and California was reached.
Among those who left the train were a
biack-rObed woman and a fair little girl
Alone in a strange land. Then followed
weary days, passed in fruitless searching
/ for work. Life Is not easy, after all, to
begin anew In a strange place and with
out friends. Steadily the small stock Of
money grows smaller and smaller until,
with all its ghastliness, starvation stares
one in the face and there is no alterna-
tive but to beg. So this mother and
daughter found the sunny land OF the
west not quite so bright as when viewed
from atar, and thus it happened that the
| fragile child stood upon a corner asking
aims.
What was there IL the childish beauty
| and appealing look of the little Waif that
| so touched the heart of a passing rich
man? He stopped and questioned the
| little one, then followed her to her lone
| ly home, and there from her mother
/ learned her sad story.
/ '.Pity is akin to lsve," so says the
! prOverb, and In this case it proved to be
a near relation. Now comes the most
remarkable part Of the story, and the
/ part most like a fairy tale. Fortune
/ shOWered her favOrs upon the two
| strangers. The first friend they found
! proved to be the wealthy Mackay, and
| in a surprisingly short time the little Eva
/ had found a generous, kind father, and
with the mother 1t was ''Off with the old
/ love, on with the neW."t With the
widows weeds were laid away all traces
and signs Of that part Of her life Of
which poverty and trouble formed 50
large a part. 1t was but a step from
/ poverty to dazzling wealth, and In all
the following years she has ever held
the trimming cup Of fortune to her lips,
| gayly, thOUghtlessly, and has yet to find
the dregs which lie calmly at the bottom
/ Of the crystal liquid.
I wonder If the Pincess Colonna viii
ever relate the story Of her early child
hood to her own wee son, or viii It ever
remain as a never-to-be-revesled secret
/ which?

We have long been panied by the
persistency with which some things are
ridiculedin the public press. Al lsnien-
cy is duetoWard the gentlemen Who write
these derogatOry paragraphs, because
they are under contract, as 1t we're, to
furnish so much eight matter" daily to
their columns. They have made the
range Of topics as wide as possible. but
the demand is manifestly greater than
the supply. 1t may be all very well to
trihe with the reputation Of a town, or
the good name OF a class OF people, but
when the trifing is kept up until 1t be
comes historic, it is high time to halt
and revise the list Of things with which
the Photographer has a reasonable right
to amuse himself.
We append a few illustrations, Just to
show what We are talking about.
KalamazoO-Verdant old men who
/ got caught by New York bunkO sharks;
/ green young men who talk about, "SaI'

cial travellers who are suddenly checked

friends of the Photographer have long
/ been made to hail from and HE TO Kala-
mazOO, a pleasant, thrifty, wide-awake
/ Michigan town. Its musical Indian
name means, "What viii you takeG"
Oshkosh-to some extent-has re-
| ceived treatment similar to Kalamazoo.
We're it not for burning down 50 often,
Oshkosh would be the biggest aggrega-
ton Of saW-nills In the northwest. But
nothing verdant halls from Oshkosh.
New Jersey most historic butt
OF ridicule known to photographers. II
/ is really not a foreign country, Is not 80
I very sandy, and has very few II any more
mosquitoes than Connecticut.
st. Louis-Is not a COW pasture as the
/ Chicago press maintains. Hay Is seldom
/ If ever cut in its principal streets.
/ Chicago girls feet-With Compare
lively few exceptions the girls in Chica-
/ 60 have small, well-shaPed feet, with
high insteps and hollOWs that do moi
make holes in the ground
The mule-COntrary to his newspaper
/ reputation the mule seldom kicks. But
one fatal case OF mule kick has been re.
ported in ten years.
/ The talkatiYe barber-As a profession
BARRIERS are silent and taciturn even &c
/ morOseneEs.
The alderman-There Is seldom If evel
a member of a city council who is OPeE
I to suspicion Of --.
Oh, well it is needless TO go on. We

Of territory within the Mexican frontier
is already dominated, to a great extent,
for the purpose Of cOntraband trade by a
class Of men who acknowledge no ale
glance TO any government, and whom
the Mexican authorities tacitly admit
they can not restrain. Out Of such a
condition Of things political cOmplica-

Again, in asserting the Monroe doc

whatever else the Monroe doctrine may

''YOu shall not change your form Of

any European alliances 'sYou shall not
make concessions Of territory, except as
We, (the United States) shall approve !"
and in return, ave VIII not allow any
foreign power, ourselves excepted, to
bully, invade, or subiugate YOU" It

The political relations Of thu United
States with Mexico, whether the people
Of the government Of the former wish It
or not, are going to be intimate and COM
pick In the future. The United States
is geographically married to Mexico, and
there can be no divorce between the par

two countries, which a few years AGO
was very difficult, Is now comparatively
easy, and facilities for the same are rap
idly increasing. And with the rapid IN

German Universities.

Brooklyn Eagle.
One DR.. Flach has been trying to
bring a hornets nest about his ears.
Himself, a German, las written a book
venturing to pick holes IN these DeauZ
ideals, the universities Of his fatherland
And if half Of what he says Is true, even
other European and American universe
ties may venture to hold up their heads
in the presence Of Jena and Gottingen.
OF course it is with bated breath that
foreigners may speak Of Germany IN
intellectual matters; but when it is a
German himself who speaks, we may
venture upon a deferential echo. Ac-
cording to DR.. Flach, then, the universe
ties are not, in the first place, examples
Of the doctrine that Learning prevents
manners from becoming ferOciOus. Ma
ture doctors have been so long in the
habit Of calling one anOther-in Latin
asinine idiots, that their pupils think
abuse the proper style Of q scholar.
The general bullying tone is accOmPa-
MED by its natural cOncOmitants. The
professor viii do his best to pluck the
pupils Of his rival, and specialism is
carried so far that the road to success is
to study an examiners hobby, beyond
which he never trHVels-Or, oddly
enough, to make love to his daughter,
and, If possible to marry her. Indeed,
according to DR.. Flach, the universities
are simply hotbeds Of petGcoat govern
ment, intrigue and worse; while the
students clubs are secret institutions
under which the life Of an inoffensive
student often becomes a torture to him.
on account Of some imaginary Offense,
or even caprice, Of the president, OF
which the victim is never even informed.
Prosecuted by his comrades, plucked by
rival professors, and worried by the
fascination of rival professions, the
life Of that Legendary hero, the German
student, would not seem all pipes ard
beer. And it is much to be feared both
that there is considerable truth in the
charges, and that the German In general
is apt to set a fancy value upon his
peculiar methods Of developing the
human brain.

Washington, where the strikes in the
building trades were peculiarly long and
extensive, there was a decrease Of 40 per

falling OF in permits was nearly 50 per

ment during the last few weeks since

that strikes should be begun with extreme
caution and ended as soon as possible
we do not know what viii do it.

Praise to whom praise is due. To the
statement in the last issue of the WORLD
that Mr.. Spicer had lost no cattle this
winter, the Carvings would like to add
that, as Mr.. Spicer was necessarily absent
from home the entire winter, the respon-
slbllity OF the care of the cattle fell upon
Mrs. Splcer and her three oldest children.
In addition to that care Mrs. Spicer had
four little children constantly needing
her attention, and could the readers of
this column see the two youngest-bright,
tieshy little twins they would agree
that Mr.. Spicer has good cause to be
proud OF his family, as well as to rejoice
over his good luck" good management,
rather, of Mrs. Spicer.

was attributed to the bones which had
been brought there for shipment, and if
they would create disease how much more

to the other of the county. For the sake
also of the women who are obliged to pass
such sights, let there be immediate action
taken compelling the bodies to be buried

County School Superintendent B. G.
Rich paid visit to Collyer last Thurs
day. The time he spent in our school
and his remarks to the scholars were
much enjoyed, and, Judging from the
smiling countenance of the teacher at
noon time, he, too, was not averse to
entertaining the superintendent. Mr..
Rich speaks highly of Mr.. Bowers's
methods of teaching, and equally con-
dennis the seeming Indifference to educa-
tional matters parents in this district
show by not visiting the school. It may
be well to add that Mr.. Rich favors the
idea of one district receiving scholars
from another district upon the payment
of small sum per term, as not only
being more convenient for those children
living adjacent to the district, but of
great benefit to the school receiving such.
