Not an USter Failure.

There is always pleasure in accumu-
lated power. but few pause to consider
that it is only to be had through vigorous
exertion. In one respect this sort Of
recompense is unique. for it may como
not only with success. but with much
that is called failure. A man may find
his hopes disappointing him one by one,
he loses a position he supposed to be Sc
cure, or his business does not succeed;
perhaps his work, too, appears ineffect-
ual, and his efforts seem lost. Yet even
in all this crushing adversely, although
he has failed in all he has tried to do, he
may have succeeded in doing something
else Of which he had not thought. but
which may be moro important and endur-
ing that that which no attempted to &C
oomplish. If he has really tried hard and
honestly he has gained wisdom and power
and experience and caution. which will
stand him in good stead in future exer.
tions. This is a consolation seldom Of
fered m times Of trouble. yet it is a real
one. There Is no such thing as utter fail
ure to one who has doue his Ssss.-Phila,

Here comes that blackguard. English, :"

who sights his victims in Park row, fol-
lows them up and robs them at leisure.
He and his fellows do nothing in Park
row for which they can be arrested, and
the only resource of the detective is to
drive them from the street with threats
The other day the crowd in Ann street
Just off Park row was astonished to see
little man approach a big man, and with
a single blow knock him into the gutter.
The big man rose, caught sight of his as
sailant, threw up his hands in a depreca-
tory fashion and took to his heels The
little man was detective and the big one
was pickpocket who had not left Park
