Almost a Suit Against the City.

An aged gentleman, while strolliug on
Broughton street yesterday, came within an
ace of meeting with serious accident. The
city, in making repairs on sewers, had failed
to properly protect pedestrians by placing
guard rails around the openings. The old
gentleman, failing to observe the excava-
ton, fell in feet foremost, landing on the
points of the workman's pick, which had
been careessly left. Hal it not been for
the solid shoes he wore, and had purchased
from A. s. Cohen, 1897 Broughton street,
he might have been seriously injured, and
would have had good grounds on which to
sue the city.

Talking of politeness, the japanese have
that article in their composition to a very
extraordinary extent. Men are always
excessively polite to one another. They
bend their backs and bow their heads and
put their two hands back to back between
their knees and have n great time. But
ladies' in Japan meeting one another on
the street. The street is empty, We'll say,
and they catch sight of one mother three
or four blocks apart. They Immediately
begin to make obeisance at one another,
and they keep bending and bowling at
short intervals until they come together,
when they make that peculiar hiss by
drawing in the breath and keep on saying
"Ohayoh for about two minutes. Thu
young things, the "Moosmais, are very
charming and graceful in their greeting of
one another, but the old ladies are ornate
and elaborate in their address.
And the language has been framed with
n view to the necessities Of p%oliteness and
accent on the e, is the verb to be. II you
are talking to n coolie. somebody very
much below you 'are'' is good enough
for "is." If you are talking to one n
little below you, or you wish to be polite
to an underling, you use 'arimas." II
you are on formal terms with an equal,
you say 'goZarimas," and when you ad.
dress a man high above you in rank you
make it ''gozarimasuru." It's an elastic
language, and pulls out t. almost any
length. San Francisco Chronicle 'Un-

is For God, King and Fatherland. The

Field Marshal Won Moltke is at the head
of the general staff, which is made up of
the officers of the different armies tempo
rarily detached. They form seven divis-
ions. The first three study each a theatre
of war, the fourth occupies itself with the
railroads, the fifth devotes its time to mill
tary history, the sixth studies geography
and statistics and the seventh geodosy
and topography. Field Marshal Vol

Origin of tho Blizzard.

Where is its cradle, its home?
The Arctic regions. The papers talk
about n blizzard having started from
Manitoba, but that is not its home-its
p starting point. Manitoba is only its half
way house.
Why do billiards. come by way of
Manitoba, and make themselves most
felt upon the west side of the Mississippi
river2 Why do we never hear of billiards
in Canada, New England and the middle
Gtates?
Because the Laurentian range of noun
tlins stretches westward from Labrador
alongqhe southern line of British Amer
ia 5000 miles, skirting the north shore
Of Lake Superior, and tapering out in
northeastern Minnesota, furnishing n pro
tcctiug wall of solid rock 4 1000 feet high
against billiards for all the region south
of it. Biologists tell us that this range is
formed Of the oldest siluriun or sedimen-
tary rock to be found upon the globe, and
That it extends 80, feet below the
surface.
From northeastern Minnesota to the
Rocky mountains is an open, t~reclcss
plateau-a great doorway 1000 miles
Nide-through which the ice king rushes.
from that line southwark is, in the main,
the same ]treelcss prairie all the way to
The Gulf Of Mexico, forming west of the
Mississippi river the royal toboggan slide,
1000 miles long, upon which his ice
crowned majesty, the blizzard, sweeps in
al his jcwClcd robes to swoOn in the
rms Of the tropical sun. The Texas
lorther is only the frayed fringes of the
blizzard kings mantle as he whirls past.

Jim Fisk's ONCE Boys One Round that
Led to His Success In Life.

Jim Fisk's ONCE Boys One Round that
Led to His Success In Life.
G. N. White, chief paymaster of IL Q
New York, Lake Erie and Western railroad
company for many years, has resigned.
He is succeeded by Peter f. Donohue,
who was Paymaster Whites assistant.
When Fisk and Gould were in control of
the Erie, Peter Donohue was Fisk's office
boy. He was a sl%ight-built boy, but his
eye was always on the right side of
business:
One day Fisk gave orders to Peter, who
sat at the outside door of Prince Erie's
Office in the Grand Opera House building,
that he would be engaged in some partic-
ular matters, and must be out to every
applicant, no matter who it might be.
At that time John Morrissey and Fisk
were great friends, and Morrissey hap
pened to want to see Fisk that day on some
important business. Peter knew of the
high regard Fisk had for John Morrissey,
and the latter was in the habit, when he
called at the Erie building, of walking
into Fisk's office ~unannounced and with
out ceremony. On this day he was pass
ing, when the three-foot-and-a-half Office
boy rose up and told the congressman
that he couldn't pass.
CLOVIS that?'' said Morrissey.
"Mr. Fisk is busy and can't see any
body" replied Peter Donohue.
HELL see me- said Morrissey.
mo he won't" insisted Peter.
The persistence of the boy rather net
tied the expire fighting statesman, and
he said, testify, and taking n step toward
the door:
d you know who I amp
Eyes" said Peter, coolly, "you're John
Morrissey."
"Well," said Morrissey, 81 guess Mr..
Fisk will see me-"
With that he swept the diminutive of
flee boy aside and STROBE toward the door.
His hand was on the knob, but he did not
turn 1t. Peter Donohue sprang on the
broad back of the former athlete and
climbed up it like d monkey. He threw
his arm around Morrissey's neck and
gave it n squeeze that shut the big mans
wind off, and forced him to give all his
attention to freeing himself from the de
termined office boys grasp. He finally
succeeded, but when the novel struggle
was over the Office boy too again be-
tween the congressman and Fisk's door.
"Mr. Fisk gave me orders to let nobody
In there" exclaimed Peter, land you
can't go in. That's all there is about il"
Morrissey's anger quickly gave way to
admiration of the boys pluck and faith
f%ulness, and, laughing heartily over his
defeat, he went away. He told Fisk next
day about his encounter with Peter, and
how the latter had "downed him" Moth
ing all Fisk's remarkable career ever
pleased him as much as the mill" as he
called it, between Morrissey and Donohue.
TIT boy was rapidly advanced by Fisk,
and one of the direct results of this affair
with Morrissey is his present place at the
head of the most important branch of the
Erie railways financial department. =

Americans live at too high n pressure.
No man has any business having func-
tional dyspepsia. Organic dyspepsia is
different. That is due to cancer or some
other specific disease of the stomach or
other internal gan Rapid eating
often grows out Of the habit OF eating
alone. Pleasant company at table and
good food are excellent preventives of
rapid eating. Eat slowly, enjoy your
food, take plenty of time between courses
and let your teeth do their share of the
work instead Of putting the whole job on
the stomach. If you don't enjoy your
meals take vigorous enough exercise to
make you hungry, Hunger is the best
sauce. That is the way to prevent dys,
pepsia If you haven't it, and the way to
cure it If you have.-New York World
