satisfied with section as amended last
night by the City Council There is little
bitch caused by the opinion of Hardeman d

tonight. A leading promoter of the line
states that he considers that the city has
done all that could be expected
of her. The company does not propose
to ask any more concessions from
the city. They are satisfied with what has
been granted In forty days after the work

RESTAURANT HOGS.
How One of Them Spoiled q Fair Lady's
 and a Reporters Appetite.

Speaking ot restaurants, how they
 hold the mirror up to the nature of
 ones breeding! Let man be lifted
 never so high by the most skillful and
 artistic of tailors, he will find his level
 at the table. The failure of our res
 taurant keepers to provide d number
 of small tables for two eompels the
 doubling, and frequently the quadru-
 bling up process, so that one has an ex-
 cellent though ofttimes uncomfortable
 opportunity of studying his dining
 neighbor. l sat in such a position last
 night. Being in haste to reach the
 theater, my lady and 1 entered the
 first restaurant We came to-and it is
 called good one-for supper. There
 were no vacant tables, so 1 selected a table at which was seated very nice appearing mortal, well dressed, and who gave the impression of being a gen. tleman of taste. His order was served as we took our seats, and as we wait ed for ours We were regaled by as won derful an exhibition of gastronOmic gymnastics as l had ever seen. This gentleman of taste began with soup. He evidently is fond of soup. With one hand clasping the plate, to tilt it as the compound grew less, and the other the spoon as Anson holds his bat when two men are out and three on bases, he got on the outside of that soup in five breaths and with such a noise as comes from the waste-p pipe of a nearly emptied bath-tub. He then gave his attention to his fish, and but for his opportune coughing would have certainly proved the worth of our fears that some of the bones would be the death of him. The fish dispatched, he devoted his energies to a niee-Iooking sirlOin, some potatoes and turnips 1 am sure he likes hash, especially when prepared by himself; for. after care fully cutting the meat from the bone he cut it in small pieces, dumped the potatoes and turnip on top, and, by delft manipulation, had in the twinkling of an eye the three ingredients mixed with thoroughness worthy of better cause. He has little use for a fork when he eats hash. He prefers, as he showed last evening, to get his knife nicely heaped, using crust of bread for pusher. How he got through the dessert l don't know. My companion of a sudden faintness, and l took her out in the air and We went to the theater without supper. Chi cdq0 J0YrRdi

TANLEY HEARD FROM.

-he Intrepid Explorer Hearl From Di-
 r"ctiy as Lale as August IT Last-Be-
 lief rlsat Both stanley and Emin Pasha
 safe.
 LONDON, Dec. 22.-Advices from Zanzi- bar say: Letters dated Stanley Falls, August %, have been delivered here by Tippoo Tib's men. They state that let ter was received at Stanley Falls, from Henry M. Stanley, on August 2s. Stanley was then at Bonyala, OH the Aruwimi, where he had arrived on August l.. He had left Emin Pasha eighty-two days be- Tore in perfect health, and provided with plenty of food. Stanley has returned to Bonyala for the loads of stores i'll charge of his rear guard and intended to leave ten days later to rejoin Emin. He re- ported all the whites in the expedition as healthy, and said the expedition wanted slothing.
 LONDON, Dec. 22.-The telegram sent by the St. Thomas agent Of the West African Telegraph Company announcing the re- eeipt of information that Stanley and Emin had arrived at Aruwimi, was read n the House of Commons last night, and received by it's auditors with most intense interest. The purport of the dispatch more than confirms the news received by way of Zanzibar, and the fact that these dispatches were received on the same day, coming from both sides of Africa, k re- garded as not only a singular coincidence, but as an indisputable evidence Of Stan iey's safety. It is now believed by many, as 1t has all along ben believed by few, fhat Stanley and Emin are en roate to the mouth of the Congo river. and t is ex, pected that the DeXt news will be received from that point.

HAYTlEN AFFAIRS.

The Agent of LegitIme's Government in New York Discredits the News of the Re- cetf Affair at Cape Haytien-Hesiege ged by Would-Be Generals Tn the Haytien Army.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-General Contreas, agent of Legitime's government here, does not like the latest news from Hayti, and does not believe that Ft. Picollet, at Cape Haytien, drove off Legitime's fleet. He says that A. W. Lithgow, Haytien Con- sul at Monte Christo, is a rebel, and that he will be recalled, as he had no business to give the Saginaw clearance papers for Cape Haytien. Before coming to the Consulate, General Contreas had had an annoying experience. A morning paper had published on Tuesday state- 1nent to the effect that General Contreas Was recruiting men for service in Legiti- mes army. On Wednesday letters began to come in from all quarters. A man from Brooklyn wrote that he had been three years in the English navy, and was splendid fighter, having once knocked out the D0nnybrook Wonder in six rounds, London prize ring rules. 4 Hoboken warrior said he had worked on a ferrybOat, and was not afraid of ''any coon that stood on two legs" Yesterday
 
 the bombardment of Cape Haytien, began fo assemble in front of the Hotel Martin where General Contreas lives, and clam ored for jobs as Generals i'll the Haytien army. General Contreas explained that he was not in search of recruits At this explanation, the crowd began to grow ob- streperous. One big man said he had e nle from Philadelphia, and he wanted l. fare, andnot i'll Haytien money. either. Scores of others wanted carfares from various places, and the noisiest claimant of all announced himself as a bad man from HOboken. None of the applicants got any money.
 General COntreas is confident that the Government gun boats returned to Cape Haytien on December and annihilated the town. Admiral Gherarell said yester- day that, with good weather, the Galena and the Yantic ought to have reached Port au-Prince by Wednesday, Powder was put on board the Richmond yester- day, and she is now read to sail.
 Lord & Austin said yesterday that tn ey would not be surprised to see the Hayti en Republic come sailing into New York hai b 3r any day now.

Henrietta had forgotten all ahouf tha

Henrietta had forgotten all about the ''upside-down sleeve" until the presi- dent of the society rapped on the table fortnight afterward, and called the busy workers and takers to order. Then she read the letter Mrs. Leavenworth had written about the box. She wrote how needy the boys were, and how pleased they all were with the new garments. But this lady thought best to tell tho whole truth as we l as part of it, and so she added that one waist had to be fix ed before the boy could wear it, as somebody had made d mistake and put the right sleeve in upside down. She only mentioned it because she knew that the waist would not have been sent so unless it was mistake She also thought it would be good thing to tell the young girls, so they would be mora particular in future.
 "Who could have made that mis- take2' asked the president as she stopped in the midst of her reading. No one answered. and Helen Marcy would not betray her friend. But Hen- rietta, after few moments 'eonsidera- tion, spoke out clearly: Il made that mistake. girls, and l did not remedy it. but threw the waist into the box. I think l shall be more particular after this. really did not think it would mako much difference =
 Mrs. Leavenworth concluded her let ter by giving the sad facts connected with Martin Beers young life, and the account touched the hearts of all the #4busy workers and brought tears to their eyes.
 Henrietta seemed to be completely overcome as she listened to Mrs. Leav- enworth's letter When she went home she stopped at the store and bought ma terial enough to make two waists for Martin Beers, and when she cut them out the next morning she was so par ticular about her work that her mother said: "Seems to me you are taking more pains than usual with your work, Henrietta.
 ''Yes, mother, I've gotthrough doing my work upside down. began to realize how careless and thoughtless I've been all my life have done 50 many things in such an upside-down sort of a way, and I've let them 20 without remedying the wrong either. l begin to realize it all now may sometimes thoughtlessiy do more of my work upside down. but if do. dear mother. l will stop and take il out, and do it all over again until it is right. One can do a great deal of work in life upside down, and hope hereafter. God will help me to have all that do finished up square and true and lasting. right side up"
 My dear, l can not tell how happy you've made me. the mother replied. as she put her arms around her daughter and kissed her.-Sasan r Perry, tn he EraHgeiiSt.

PRACTICAL BENEVOlENCE
Briet Resume of the Phiianthropic work Pursued by a Possible Member of the Next Administrations.


 ST. LOUIS, Dec. 22.-A dispatch was sent out few days since announcing the prob- ahility of the selection by General Har- f1son for the portfolio of Postmaster General in his Cabinet of John Wana- maker, the millionaire merchant of Phila- delphia. MT. Wanamaker is chiefly known sn the West by reputation as sound busi- ness man and philanthropist, but a little inquiry on the part of United Press re. porter has resulted in eliciting the follow. ing information i'll regard to the practical application of his benefactions:
 This year Mr. Wanamaker has given S50,000 toward canceling the Philadelphia Young Mems Christian Association mort gage, and S20,00 to extinguish the mort gage on the Bethany Church; he used 900 of his personal fund to build and embelish Bethany Sunday school; he built the Jenkintown chapel, and gave it S30,000 he gave $20,- ooo to the Presbyterian Orphan age; S40,000 to the Presbyterian Hos- pital; endowed the Bethany College, and for seven years has conducted 1t out of his private fund, and giving it his personal attention; while on his college roll for gratuitous education there has been an average of four hundred students per annum. Between April II, lss7, and March 5i, ls>s, he distributed pro rata among the saiesmen and women of his establish ment S60,000, according to sales made On April 90 of this year he divided among such ef his employees as had been with him for seven years (aboat 275 persons4 over si1 GOO, and at the same time set aside e.o,o0o as a pension fund for those who might be disabled in his service. h addi- 'ion to this he has given large sums to private charities.
 Mr. Wana makers charity is distributed by his own hand, in his own person, among the poor in the lanes and by-ways nf Philadelphia. Hundreds of deserving unfortunate families have been kept from suffering by the generosity of the million aire merchant of the City of BrotAerly Love-"
