Awkward.
Boston Transcript.

A chance word, innocently spoken, may often lead the unwary into pit falls, truth of which there are many illustrations. A lady whose garden happens to overlook the garden of her next-doOr neighbor was out looking at her flowers one morning.
 Her little dog, Rags, had accompa- nied her, and took it into his head to lie down picturesquely by the fence. His mistress, looking down at him as he lay curled up there, with his blue ribbon about his neck, clasped her hands in mock admiration, and ex- claimed, looking steadily at him:
 "Oh, don't you think you look aw- fully nice in your blue ribbon, down therep
 Just as the words "down there'' were out of her mouth, she noticed, to her horror, that the lady next door, whose intimate acquaintance she had not the honor of, was exactly in the line of her vision in the next yard and that she wore blue ribbon in her hairl
 The lady next door looked up in indignation. Rags was invisible from where she stood, and she had no doubt the remark was addressed to her. She turned about with . fierce movement, rushed back into her house, and slammed the door after her. The unintending author of the insult, in the meantime, stood aghast and helpless.

For Amateur Journalists.
The Epoch.


 First, be sure that you have noth- ing to say, and then sit down and say it.
 Don't bother about ideas, or about sense, if you haven't any. Make up for the absence of both by grandilo- quent words and many of them, espe- cially if you are writing for space. Enlarge upon your topic; it shows fertility; to ensmall upon it indicates paucity.
 Write on paper, foolscap size, or on wall paper if it is more handy. It creases so beautifully when you cram 1t into the envelope. Then, too, you will please the compositor; he likes the sheet of MS. to cover his "upper case;" indeed, the more it covers it the better he likes it. He shows his de- light by his well-sustained profanity.
 Use pale blue ink and don't aim at legibility. The editor is fond of de- ciphering hieroglyphics. It is likely that he'll guess at far better word than the one you really used. If you have no blue ink, black ink that has been frozen and thawed out three or four times will do as well. When your article is finished don't revise it. Above all, don't prune it that might strengthen it, but it will also shorten it, and quantity goes far ther than quality.
 Show it to friends who are incom- potent to judge of it's merits. If they praise it then it is ready to fire at the editor.
 If you show it to a competent friend he'll hesitate to tell you, out of regard for your feelings, that it is "rot," and that you are not called to write. You see, if he tells you the truth you'll not send the Ms; the editor will be de- prived of the pleasure of declining it, and you of the delight of getting it back or of thinking kindly of the editor for years because he kept it and the stamps you sent him. You needn't send sufficient stamps for the return of your MS. It can't be explained why it is so, but it costs less postage from him to you than it does from you to him. Anyhow, the average literary tyro seems to think that it does.
 If your article is excessively funny, send it to the Homelecttc Monthly.
 If it is excessively dull and heavy, send it to Puck.
 If it is on theology send it to the .Sctentifc American ; if on science, to the Christian ct Work.
 There's great deal in sending the article to the journal for which it isn't at all adapted.
 Wait at least two days before you write to inquire why you haven't heard about the article.
 If you live near the publication office don't send your Ms, but take it yourself. Read it to the editor read it boisterously, so that others within hearing may enjoy it. They may doubt the massiveness of your brain, but not the capacity of your lungs. Get into the editors lap, ii possible; walk all over him, figura- lively speaking. He enjoys such wis., itors hugely the disappointment o1 his life is that they do not come in squadrons.
 Should the editor, through dementia or the idiotic tortuity of circum- stances, accept your article, send him another right off. In fact, keep send- ing them. Load them in a Gatlin gun. Make target of him. Other writers have no business to expect a hearing. They ought to fall back upon more plebeian calling.

uurlng my absence, have melted away, and the watch have been thereby brought to the surface.
 An ascent of some hours brought us to the scene of our impetuous glis- sade, and soon afterwards, to our sur prise and delight, the watch was found on the surface of the snow. It's case must have fitted water-tight for, on being wound up, it began to tick immediately. It is now in the posses sion of my godson.
 Falling stones constitute another serious and frequently fatal danger in the Alps. And here the goats, which roam about the upper slopes and gull lies, often play mischievous part.
 Slipping in perilous places is the most fruitful cause of Alpine disaster. It Is usual for climbers to rope them selves together, and the English AL pine club has taken every pains to pro- duce ropes of the soundest material and the best workmanship.
 The rope is tied around the waist, or is fastened to . belt clasping the waist of each climber. The rope is an indispensable accompaniment of Alp inc climbing, and no competent mountaineer will recommend its abandonment. Prudence, however, is necessary in the use of it. The men tied together ought to be few in num- Der. A party of three or four, includ- ing the guide, or guides, is, in my opinion, large enough. In . nnmer- ous party there is temptation to

 had finished our pipes he led me out

that Blaine was very dear to the people of
Massachusetts; that they thought very
highly of him, and that he could I'M
doubtedly carry his state. He thought
Congressman Mckinley could also carry it
if he was placed at the head of the tic ket.
The Ohio delegation, Governor Foster and
General Butterworth, refused to consider
Sherman out of the fight, for all the com.
mittee had so decided.
Repeated ballots were taken. On the
first ballot in the committee no one candi-
date received over three votes. After re-
peated balloting Mckinley received seven
votes.
Chairman Farwell turned to De Young
and asked him if he would recommend
his delegation to support Mckinley, and
he replied that he would not; that his del
egation had declared for the man who
now held majority of votes in the con-
vention and it would simply be ridiculous
to ask them, when they had won their
fight, to refuse at that moment to vote
for him. There was great deal of dis
cussion and some that favored Mckinley
now objected to reporting him to the con-
ference.
Dutfield said if they reported a man, it
ough to be one strong enough to beat
Blaine, which Mckinley could not do.
Another delegate stated Mckinley had
this morning practically placed himself
in the same position as Blaine, when he
got upon a chair in the committee and
stated he would not be a candidate for the
presidency.
After some more discussion, it was
finally decided to report two names
to the conference, and the second name
chosen was Allison. The committee ad-
journed to report to the conference. When
the conference, had to some extent, dis
cussed the situation, a motion was made
that they adjourn the convention imme-
diately on meeting this afternoon until
Monday morning, to give time for
thorough discussion of the situation, and
it was agreed that each delegate In the
conference be requested to urge their
delegation to vote for au adjournment of
the convention. 1t was SO ordered.
