PAT, BARREL AND THE BULL.
The Remarkable Voyage of a Lewiston
 man from Ireland to New Jersey.

From the Lewiston Journal
 "How did you come over Pat9" asked the Journal man of we'll known laborer in the yard of one of the Lewiston mills after the story teller had done telling his stroy.
 ''I left hone," he began, after expressions of difidence, s'when I was lad, and my cousin, says he to me, My boy, my boy,' and begorry was sad, indeed. didn't ship nor pay my passage. I didn't register on the ships books, for them days were afore the steamship times. just slowed myself in the ships hold, until one day the churnin and the thumpin' got that loud that I was afraid, and I come aloft to the deck af the ship"
 After he got on deck, his narrative con- tinues, the captin fell OF him and gave him three lashings day on his bare back, with unfailing regularity. This became so mon otonous that one day he fell on knees and and pleaded for his life, and the captain had a big caak rolled up out of the ships hold, it's head knocked in, 8 lot of food put into it, Patrick put into the cask, the head replaced, and, with only the bunghole open, the entire cask and contents rolled into sea. For days he drifted on and on. "I had only the bHng- hole to look out Of and the great green wav- es all around me-"
 stHow did you get watera'
 tAll the water had to drink was what washed through the bunghole."
 s'And you like salt waterp
 s.Sure it's only matter of taste.' After Pat had drifted many days, and had begun to grow very fat from his inactivity, he one day felt the cask pumping on the shore, and pretty soon was washed up high 1 and dry.
 With certain naivete, he says that he had by this time begun to be sort of frightened. saw no signs of life until several hours some COWS and bulls came roaming over the l seashore, where they had come down to 1 drink. At this point ;t is better not to ques- tion the taste of COWS for salt water. One of the bulls came smelling around his cask, and plsyfully leaned up against the bunghole to rest. Pat put out his hand and quietly grab bed the bulls tail. Then he pulled it 1 through, and bracing his feet against the head of the cask, gave the tail twist. The bull awoke. He looked around. The l cask had him. With snort like the wrath of love he started. Whew How he ran. He bounded over fields and hedges, into the
 streets of the city, past wharves and docks past the Custom House, up to the City Build ing, where, in weathering a street corner, hs split the cask in twain over & lamp post, and and Pat stood forth from his prison house o
 of weeks, 6 free man.
 1 He was in New Jersey.

whish has been published upon the subject The question has been ably argued from both sides; it is one which is at present causing a good deal of agitation. The recent number of the Nineteenth Century contains some very able articles both for and against the industrial education, and I think any one who wishes fair, unbiased view of the mat ter would do well to read these articles I will say here, as @ fact, which may give some idea of the opinion of the general pub lie, that the increase in the number of stu dents at Yale recently has been unparalleled and that it has moreover been chiefly con. fined vo the industrial department of that institution. You will see by our twenty third annual catalogue that the opening of the school year 1S87-88 witnessed large sd- ditions to the number of our students. The register of that year for all the departments and schools under the control of the corpora- tion showed an aggregate of eight hundred and nineteen pupils against seven hundred and thirteen the previous year, while this year there is doubtless still greater increase, but as we have only been running few days we have not as yet been able, in our hurry, to count the exsct number. We have all the students we desire, and are likely before long to have more than we want, although of course we shall make room for all that come to us naturally, but we have no desire to at tempt to increase the number of our pupils by advertising. Personally, I do not keep JTAck OL bue pupl1s ALI0E Iu6y 15tfS uorO, auCA so do not consider that am qualified to tell you much about their success, at least not so much as some one outside of the institution, who has broader view of the field.
 'EIf I were thinking of studying law I would not go to lawyer for advice. but to some man with broad range of view, who could give me unbiased and dispassionate advice, and for the same reason I would re- commend you for information regarding the success of our students to the down town en- gineers, architects, electricians, etc., men who see more of the field than I do, and who can speak more freely than would be becom- ing in me upon the subjects to which have devoted my life. The main thing for a young man deciding upon his career is to be careful and choose something for which he has an aptitude. I would rather son of mine would receive given amount of edu- cation on the line of his tastes than that he should have five times the amount applied to faculty which is almost dormant within him. The thing for the young man to do is to develop himself along the line of least resistance,' as we say scientifically, and that is along the line of his tastes. If this is done his work will not be irksome to him, and work which is irksome is seldom well done. It will be rather 8 delight, and will cause him to follow his pursuit with 8 per sistency which will guarantee success"

AN ESSAY ON KISSING.
Which Heads as though It Were Writ
 ten by a Woman.

From the Troy Times.
 In the old days, when and rouge were in- dispensable, gallant gentleman kissed the hand of his fair lady. And her hand was kept immaculate, that his kiss might mean much to him. Nowadays men don't stoop to kiss your hand; it would get their trousers out of shape. So clean face becomes nsc- essity to @ woman who has any liking for that expression of affection which is gener- ally approved of and seldom well done. The only kiss worth having, says writer on the subject, is that of a nice baby, and yet the baby doesn't give it; it only submits to it, and keeps its sweet, dainty, perfumy little mouth shaped like an O, as it waits for you to discover just how delightful it is. Mems kisses are like Scotch whisky-they are apt to be smoky. Children's kisses are inclined to cover one's entire face; but baby simply exists and lets you take mouthful of the breath of Araby. Men have an idea that their kisses are appreciated. They are most immensely mistaken. The average man gives kiss just as he throws base ball. with too much force. It ought to be as deli cate as a rose leaf. Almost memory in second. It need not suggest postage stamp nor porous plaster. One lady says: fI could write book on kissing, but mankind is so determined that don't think he'd take any advice on the subject and yet, as it is the women who receive the kisses, they cer- tainly ought to know more about them than the great big stupid creatures who give them"

INDUsTRTAL CA RERRs.
Lee she Young Man, Above All, Con- slider HIS Natural Bent.
 From the Boston Herald.1

sIder Ills Natural Bent.
 From the Boston Herald.l
 The professions to-day are indeed over crowded, and many of our young men are turning their backs upon them for an indus trial career. A gentleman prominently con- nected with the institute of technology said: tThere is a general belief that & young man who enters this or 8 similar school in prefer ence to receiving classical education, sscri- fees for the sake of practical knowledge 0 mental culture and development which he could only get through classical education. Now in mind this is not at all so. I would send my child to an industrial school in preference to Harvard or Yale if my sole object was that he should simply get the best possible mental training, irrespective of any use he might make of it. The fact Is an in- dustrisl education calls out the powers quite as much as any other kind of education. I do not wish, since have no incentive in the first place, and it would i'll become me in the second, to give my opinion as to the desirability of 8 classical as compared with an industrial education, any more than I have already given by saying that an in- dustrial education gives Rs high 8 degree of mental discipline as can be got anywhere. I mean to say that 1t is not nay place to declare that young man will stand bet- ter chance of getting geod living if he leads an industrial career than he will if he enters one of learned professions. As an attache of an industrial school, this would be unbecoming in me, even if I felt qualified to pass judgment upon this point, which do not, since it is not my place to keep posted on the demand for young men in either of these two branches. We never guarantee young man position here, we never even influence him in his choice of work herej we are glad to tell him what electrical engineering is, what mechanical engineering is, but when he asks which | branch of work he had better take up we can only reply: "Ws can assume no re. sponsibiiity; if you make 8 mistake it will | be your life which will suffer, therefore you must make the choice, and once you have determined what you want to learn, we will make it our business to teach it to you s' thoroughly as it is in our power to do so." "If yon wish to know anything of thu 1 comparative merits of learned professions l and induftrial pursuits, the chances of emol 1 ument each class of work offers, can only i refer pou to the great amount of literasur

 A good story about a performance in Chicago is going the rounds. The populace was startled by g. lavish display upon dead wall and curbstone of "gutter-snipe" bear ing the announcement "He is coming, That was all. Who Che" was or when "he' was 'fcoming' was nowhere stated. One Sunday morning the newspapers heralded the fact that "hs was here," and again the dead walls and eurbstones took up the cry and told the same thing. From the an- nouneement it appeared that She" was a "mysterious wonder" who would give mar vicious exhibitions that night at Bryan Hall. The sensation caused by the announcements ssHe is coming" and f'He is here" attracted & great crowd to the hall that night, and the advent of singular advertiser was eagerly watched for. At last the hall was filled with paying people and the window of the box office was closed. A bell rung and up went the curtain. All that ceuld be seen was big sign reading, "He Is gone." He was, too, and with all the money, but the victims en- joyed it.
 
 Sir R. Rawlinson, the eminent architect, that the old eastern plan of securing founda- tions by forming deep wells and then filling them up with concrete has been too much neglected, for in this method security is af- forded for the loftiest structure in the most difficult ground. Masses of concrete or of brick, or of stone work, placed on com- pressible substratum, however eramped and bound, may prove unsafe, solidity from considerable depth being alone reliable. En- larging the area of base or foundation by footingz can be resorted to, but mere en- largement of area may not in itself be sufd- cient. A lofty structure which is to stand secure must have solidity sufficient to main tain each part in the position in which it is first placed. Again, heavy embankment or heavy pile of building frequently dis turbs the surface ground at a distance of many yards, the subsistence causing corre- spending rise around or on either side, ss the case may be. According to Rawlinson, the depth of foundation in compressible ground ought not to be less than one-fourth the intended height above the ground; that is, for shaft of 2J0 feet the foundation should be made secure by piling or by well sinking and concrete to depth of fifty feet.

The Wilmington Morning News doesn't have much faith in the talk about reversing the decision of the people of that State in the recent election. The reason alleged for such
 action is a nominal informality in the bal
 lots and the forms of election. Leading
 Democrats do not favor the scheme. Lead-
 ing lawyers deny it's legality, and the News
 points out what seems the strongest practi-
 cal point of all, that if the election in Kent
 county is nullifed, so ss to throw out Re- publican senator, the fourteen Republican members of the lower House. which is judge of the qualifications of it's own members. can throw out the seven Democratic members elect from Newcastle county on the ground of fraud. If that were done the case would be worse than now for the Democrats.
