An Ingenious NTendicant's Tricks.

There is a seemingly blind mendicant who for the past year or so has gained a living in the Eastern district of Brooklyn. He is a strapping big fellow physically, of dark com plexion, and capable of doing any kind of manual labor. The writer met him few evenings ago and recognized him as man whom he had frequently bestowed small change upon when he stood on Chatham street, New York city, not three years ago. Up to the time the reporter met him last he did not have any doubts of the mans aff1ic- tion but an incident occurred on last Mon day night which will make the reporter man wide awake.
 On the 7:2O boat from Brooklyn the re- porter on looking up suddenly observed the man, but instead of working the blind dodge he had new wrinkle-that of a one-armed veteran. In a small satchel suspened around his neck he had number of silver and gold paper envelopes, ill which were two or three kinds of court plaster, the virtues of which he proclaimed in loud tone of voice. He was not very successful in disposing of his wares, and when the boat reached the slip the re- porter followed the man as he got off. He walked up East street to Broome, and behind pile of lumber handed his sachel to dissi- pated looking mortal, receiving in return a staff and square piece of pasteboard When he had placed the pasteboard around his neck he walked slowly up Broome street to Tomp- kins, and then turned into Grand street. On the corner of Grand and Lewis streets he halted, took bundle of lead pencils in his hands, and cried out in piteous tone of voice: "Please help the blind"
 The reporter watched him few moments, and then walked over to him and said: "You are the greatest rogue ever saw. I noticed you on the ferry boat, when you could see as well as can, and now you sud- dsepSSecome blind What do you mean by IUs'
 The man opened his eyes, turned and walked rapidly up Grand street to the Bowery. York Evening Sun.

A Theatrical Superstition.

It is superstition ill the theatrical profes- sion that the placard ''No Free List" is the hamburger of bad business, as it generally happens that it is rarely displayed excepting at establishments where the business is not good It is contended that the mere fact that the houses are crowded deters ''deadheads'
 from making applications for the courtesies of the establishment, and that consequently the sign is not necessary. It is doubtful if the display of the sign Standing Room Only,n is not generally a piece of folly, as often people would buy admission tickets ii they thought there was a chance of seat who are deterred by this announcement, which is so seldom true.-New York Times

her. The gayeties of Paris-duite incompre- henslDle to herself as well as to every one about her-had a depressing effect on her spirits. She had no illness to complain of. one shared willingly ill the ever varying suc- cesslon of amusements offered to strangers by the ingenuity of the iveliest people in the world-but nothing reused her; she remained perslstently dull and weary through it all. In this frame of mind and body she was in no humor to receive Henry's ill timed ad- dresses with favor, or even with patience. She plainly and positively refused to listen to hlm. "Why do you remind me of what have sutfereds" she asked petulantly. Don't you see that it has left it's mark on me for life?"
 "l thought knew something of women by this ti1ne," Henry said, appealing privately to Lady Montbarry for consolation; "but Az nes completely puzzles me- It is year since Montbarry's death; and she remains as de voted to his memory as if he had died faith full to her-she still feels the loss of him as none of us feel it!"

 choices The truest and best friend to him little as he deserved-in his lifetime. she nat urally remains the truest and best friend to hlS memory now. If you really love her, wait; and trust to your two best friends-to time and to me. There is my advice; let your own experience decide whether it is not the best advice that can offer Resume your journey to Venice tomorrow, and when you take leave of Agnes speak to her as cor dially as if nothing had happened"
 Henry wisely followed this advice Thor oughly understanding him, Agnes made the leave taking friendly and pleasant on her side When he stopped at the door for a last look at her she hurriedly turned her head so that her face was hidden from him. Was that good sign? Lady Montbarry, accom- panying Henry down the stairs, said:
 "Yes, decidedly. Write when you get to Venice. We shall wait here to receive letters from Arthur and his wife, and we shall time our departure for Italy accordingly"
 A week passed and no letter came from Henry. Some days later telegram was re- ceived from him. It was dispatched from Milan instead of from Venice, and it brought this strange message:
 q have left the hotel. Will return on the arrival of Arthur and his wife. Address, meanwhile, Albergo Reale, Milan"
 Preferring Venice before all other cities of Europe, and having arranged to remain there until the family meeting took place, what un- expected event had led Henry to alter his planss and why did he state the bare fact, without adding a word of explanation? Let the narrative follow him and find the answer to those questions at Venice.

Conversation in Public Places.

Look for a moment at conversation as we overhear it OH the street, the horse and steam cars Here we find ourselves involuntarily deciding who are those best acquainted with the laws of polite society and good breeding. Setting aside the cause of deafness, we are often annoyed at the persistency with which people in near proximity to ourselves en- deavor, in conversation with their friends, to enlighten all the others as to their private affairs, business, poverty or wealth, friends, servants, and what not. This is due partly to home education in the matter of conver- sation, and partly to the largely increasing numbers of those who have acquired wealth suddenly and have had no advantages of early education and culture, and who forget that fine feathers do not always make fine birds.-Ellen Bliss Hooker in Good House keeDinp.

THE FOURTH PART.

 It was only the 2Oth of September when Agnes and the children reached Paris Mrs. Norbury and her brother Francis had then already started on their journey to Italy-at least three weeks before the date at which the new hotel was to open for the reception of travellers.
 The person answerable for this premature departure was Francis Westwick.
 Like his younger brother Henry, he had increased his pecuniary resources by his own enterprise and ingenuity; with this differ ence, that his speculations were connected with the arts. He had made money in the first instance by @ weekly newspaper, and he had then invested his profits in London theacer This latter enterprise, admirably conducted, had been rewarded by the public with steady and liberal encouragement. Pondering over a new form of theatrical at traction for the coming winter season, Francis had determined to revive the languid public taste for the Nballet" by means of an enter tainment of his own invention, combining dramatic interest with dancing. He was now, accordingly, in search of the best dancer possessed of the indispensable per- sonal attractions) who was to be found in the theaters of the continent. Hearing from his foreign correspondents of two women who had made successful first appearances, one at Mllan anu one at florence, ne had arranged to visit those cities, and to judge of the merits of the dancers for himself before he joined the bride and bridegroom. His widowed sister, having friends at Florence whom she was anxious to see, readily accompanied him. The Montbarrys remained at Paris until it was time to present themselves at the family meeting in Venice. Henry found them still Ill the French capital, where he arrived from London on his way to the opening of the new hotel
 Against Lady Montbarry's advice he took the opportunity of renewing his addresses to Agnes. He could hardly have chosen more nnpronitious time for pleading his cause with

Russia's Imperial Crown.

The imperial crown of all the Russias is the finest ever worn by a sovereign. It is in the form of bishops miter, and carries on it's crest a cross composed of five of the most beautiful diamonds ever cut supporting the largest ruby in the world. Eleven great dia- monds in a foliated arch rising from the front and back of the crown support this cross and ruby, and on either side is hoop of thirty-eight pearls, than which there are no handsomer known.-New York Evening World

A can for /. Pun Altogether.

\ y
In a private letter to q gentleman in this city,
Mr.. Huston, chairman of the State central COM
mittee. says sIf every Republican in the State
will work as hard as / shall. the Republicans
will carry the State without . doubt" We
have question about this. His work and
fidelity in the campaign of 1856 is a guarantee
in 1888. But the work should not be all thrown
upon Chairman Illusions shoulders. Is their
any good why any Republican in the
State should not labor with equal zeal and
energy with the chairman There can be none.
1t is the same cause with all of us-ths success
of the Republican party. He is simply the
leader chosen to direct us-she party through
out the State-in the work; chosen not to do
the work, but to lead in the work. If the Re-
publicans fail to cooperate with him and defeat
eusues, the responsibility will be with the party
and not with the chairman. Bearing these facts
in mind. let every man resolve to do his own
work, do it we'll, whether his neighber does or
not. and the spirit will be catching, inspiration
and enthusiasm will suppiant and lethargy, and
success will be assured from the beginning.
