When ''old Simpsons" father died
years ago, he left him many eccen-
tricities and fortune of 81, 100000
cold Simpson" lives In Wakefield,
Mass. If he had inherited the for
tune minus the eccentricities of his
father, he might have enjoyed life.
But the eccentricities have made
him a miserable man. He boards
his money, dresses scantily, and
sleeps in a stable on bed of straw.
During the day his time is consumed
in collecting his rents, except when
he munches his very plain food.

Many young boys have had their
minds temporarily affected by read
ing dime novels, but there is 16-
year-old girl, living in Stockton,

of trash, and in consequence wants
to be a cowboy. Two or three times
lately she has arisen at night, armed
herself with pistols, provided provi-
sions and camping outfit, and started
on pony for the mountains. Each
time she>was overtaken. The dime
novel seems not to have lost its ex-
citing interest to young and weak

A novel exhibition, open to compe-
tition from all parts of the world, is to
be held in Berlin next year, during the
months of April, May and juno. 1t is
proposed to exhibit all forms of appli-
ances designed for the saving OF human
beings from accidental injuries. This
definition is broadly interpreted, and a
very we'll arranged classification has
been adopted. The idea of the exposi-
tion had its origin in discussion held
by the Institute for Brewing, at Berlin,
in 1887. It appeared that workmen
were in such constant danger from NOV
ing machinery and other factors Of
danger in industrial establishments,
that good work might be done in in
augurating spirit Of competition
among the world of inventors in the
matter Of saving factory operatives from
accidents.

The sanitary government OF the city
OF Paris T., asserts the New York
Graphic, the most perfect of any NUM-
cipality in the world. Lately tho au-
thorities have taken hold OF matter
which ought to be Of interest to our
own health boards. They have made
some regulations as 10 how carpet shak-
ing and beating shall be done. Inves-
tigatlon showed that the dust from old
carpets was insalubrious and liable to
spread infectious germs, though they de-
cided to regulate such cleaning. Here
after carpets must be brushed and beat
en- IA entirely shut up rooms, and the
dust deposited is to be washed with
water containing disinfectants. Strips
Of rags, wool, etc, remaining must be
burned Immediately. This would seem
to be pretty hard on the people en- gagged
10 the business, but the requirements
are none too severe, even if the dust
from foul carpets were only nuisance
and not poisonous.

A Wonderful Old Man.

One of the most notable of the won
derful old men of Germany is Won
Moltke. We could learn lesson or two
from the Germans concerning the value
OF men, says ABlakley Hall. In the
United States man is shelved at 70.
When he has reached that age in the
herman Empire it is assumed that his
faculties have reached their fullest de-
velopment, and that his wisdom will
then be OF the highest value to the
state. At all events, no is lifted to
power and Importance and the reins of
government lie in his hands to the yerv
last. Although Won Moltke is nearly SR
years OF age, he is as active as though
pnt ~. Very often in Berlin walked
up 10 the War Office after breakfast inst
lor the pleasure of seeing the old Mar
s s go to work. There was always a
httie crowd around the door waiting for
glance at the famous commander. and
when he jumped out OF his carriage
ana walked briskly into the hid
building that is known as the brain
OF the army, because ali the plan.

proportion Of many other products, in
Guiding an immense lumber product.
No less than 8, 535 miles of railways by
1887 centred at these two cities, and

The Wedding Present Came Back.

The Pittsburg Dispatch tells this story:
When the sister of the Governor of a
neighboring State was married, few
years ago, she received great many
valuable presents, and among them were
many pieces Of plate and silverware Of
all sorts. But particularly was she
overwhelmed with silver fruit spoons.
Beautifully chased, gold lined, in every
sort OF variety, were these spoons.

AN agitation is going on in India
against the slaughter OF COWS for food
for the soldiers. It is pointed ont that
it takes over l25, 900 cows every year To-
feed the soldiers, and that the Hindooe
themselves very rarely touch meat, 1iy9'
ing upon rice, vegetables, and milk.
Once even the poorest could have all tho
milk he wanted for his babies and him
self, but now it is impossible for the vii
layers to get milk even for infants whose
mothers breasts have failed, and the
failure of the breasts is due chiefly, also,
to the lack OF cows milk. Thousands
of children die on this account yearly.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-The Chinese
Theater may possibly be a nuisance,
but not to Mr.. Chun Hec, as he
lives on the Waikiki side Of Fort
street. Nothing could better cx-
hibit righteousness than his contri-
button to the BULLETIN OF Friday
evening. Articles Of this nature re-
ferrlng to matter pending before
the Courts intended to prejudice a
fair trial, work do harm where there
are fearless judges, as here, and
judged by an intelligent community,
but their sinister motives rather re-
act upon the cause they attempt to
serve so | shall not attempt to re-
fute the allegation of nuisance but
leave it to an impartial court. |
suggest, however, that the nuisance
complained of by Mr.. Chun Hee,
undoubtedly exists in the fact that
he may frequently have desired to
obtain admission to the theater for
half price, which would of course
besrefused. WoNG Duck.
