The Smart Young Man.

A tramp was sleeping sweetly on the string
piece of the French line dock on Sunday
afternoon. A cloud Of flies swarmed above
him. Three nicely dressed young men OBJ
served the scene, and one determined to end
it. He secured O bucket with q rope ATTACHED
from a neighboring tug. He filled it with
water from the river and dashed its contents
into the tramps face. The startled sleeper
awoke, threw up his arms, and rolled into the
river. The crowd rushed to the stringpiece,
while the young man was picture of despair.
When the tramp came to the surface he
called Justify for help. The women on the
shore looked at the well dressed young man
and cried, "Shameln Down went the unfor-
tunate again with a mournful appeal to those
on shore The young man who caused all the
mischief waited no longer. He jumped into
the river Both he and the tramp appeared
at the same time about six yards apart The
young man swan for the tramp, but, strange
TO saw, the tramp struck oat, too. With little
effort he reached the tug from which the
bucket was secured and easily gained Its deck.
Thence he climbed to the dock The young
man followed him. and the dripping pair were
the center of laughing throng The tramp,
turning to the young man, said with dis
uainful air: Say, young Teller. ye think yer
smart, don't yer; but who got the wust o. that

Foot Loose at Coney Island.

Again, Coney Island offers superior adj
vantages for the study of the pseudo charac-
ter which for some inscrrtable reason it
pleases "Coney's" visitors TO assume there
People have no sooner settled at the Oriental
or the Manhattan, to confine our attention to
those hostelries, than they exhibit characters
which amaze and amuse. You say to your
self: These people are all right in New York,
courteous, amiable, self reliant, with decent
reserve about their own affairs and kindly
consideration for the feelings of others At
home they are the prosperous, best behaved
people in the world. But Coney Island is on
the Threshold of New York, and why should
they appear different here2" What are they
in the habit of doingi Nothing very dread
full but many things which are ridiculous.
They stare and remark upon passers by; they
criticise manners and dress in the loudest
tones; they eat and drink in public in way
that would make Frenchman vince; they
dance in the hotel office, fiirt on an inch Of
green grass removed by another inch from
the public promenade; they sing and whistle,
and, in a word, the people who are pillars OF
propriety at Narragansett Pier and Bar
Harbor, as well as in New York, behave at
Coney Island as if it were the deck of
Cunarder with the flag Of ship bohemianism
floating aloft.
The result is to divide the aristocratic sec
ton Of Coney Island into two parts. The
quiet, solicitude loving sojourners uncon-
sciously order their affairs so that, day by
day, they are in the habit of seeing less and
less of their fellow boarders; they frequent the
wild sand dunes, the unimproved corner of
the island, or cross the marshes and take TO
the inland roads. 1t must be remembered of
Coney Island that it has come up from dis
reputable resort to be reputable and almost

although the old, bad atmosphere is still

How He Knew.

Here IS pretty good story of boy who
made twenty-five cents by going to Sunday
school when sway from home. Il has a
moral also, ana perhaps warning, for Sun
day school orators:
A gentleman, addressing Sunday school
in Newark, described family in distress, and
referred 10 the disposition little girl made Of
half dollar given to her. He offered twenty
five cents TO any child who could guess cor
rectly what she did with the half dollar.
A boy Immediately piped up, Bought a
basket with t."
But how did you happen to guess toa.F'
''Giye me my quarter, please SIR

STUDENT LIFE IN PARIS.
Some of the Manners and Customs OK
the Latin Quarter.


Here is the receipt for Paris student: A
high hat which costs about 81 and Is shabby
in proportion A beard, but not like the
boards we have at home. 1t must be cut
very short at the sides, generally with ma
chine, and pointed at the chin. The hair Is
done in one of three ways, but rarely with
any part l, cut very short and orusneo
straight forward la dynamiter; 2, brushed
up on end la porcupine; 3, allowed 70 grow
very long and thrown back la Beethoven.
These long haired fellows are simply disgust
ing. They assume the halo OF an intellect
which they have not got You can generally
tell student, too, by the black leather case
which be invariably carries for paper, BOOKS,
etc For writing they all have little square
inkstands which possess most marvellous pow
ers Of upsetting, and an ordinary PEN
stylograph, price twelve or fifteen francs,
would be considered an indication OF fabulous
wealth The most striking characteristic,
however, of genuine Paris student. particu-
larly one of the medical persuasion, Is his free
and easy manners. He frequently finds,
toward or o'clock in the morning, that bis
brain will not work any longer unless he
goes out in the street and howls vigorously, to
the immense edifcation Of the neighborlng
sleepers. Then you will often observe him
singing down the Boulevard Saint Michel
in the eeening, with female compan-
ion on either arm, and INDUCING In
what might be called, by slight
disregard of the truth, species
of singing Again you may see the young
gentleman Of studious propensties on top OF
billiard table in one of the brasseries, with
cue in one hand and plate of what they call
choucroute in the other, haranguing crowd
of miscellaneous friends upon some important
question Of the moment. Yes, on the whole
you are apt to recognize the student by the
delightful sans gene which he displays when
ever be appears in public. You think to
yourself: "Well, these joking, drinking,
iovial, fooling young Frenchmen can't
amount to much at their books. They are not
serious enough, they waste too much time at
cafes and brasseries they keep too late hours,
ETC." Wait a moment, my friend. Paris
students are not to be judged too hastily. Go
into the lecture rooms and the Laboratories.
Watch these same harum scarum fellows at
the dissecting table, or in the great libraries.
Talk to them. Find out who they are, etc,
and the first thing you know you will dis
cover that these "young FOOLS" as you
thought them the other night when you
watched them gambling in the Cafe de la
Source at l o'clock in the morning, know
enough about medicine, or chemistry, or
something else, to make your head swim.
You see they play very hard when they play,
and perhaps it's the same when they work.
They laugh at the English students here as
being always serious" for the excellent rea-
son that they have not enough esprit to be
anything elSe-Paris Cor. New York Sun.

A singular Death Follows q Mysts-
rsou. In rider IN chicago.

A Chicago telegram says: The mys
terry about the murder Of William Bar
rett. the Pinkerton detective, May 22d.
has never been cleared up, although the
murdered mans wife and his brother-in'
law were arrested for the crime. A bar.
tender named James Pope, with his two
sisters, lived in the same house with
Barrett, and it was surmised that they
knew something about the murder, as
one OF the sisters was detected sending
an anonymous note TO Captain O'Don.
nell. of the police, declaring that Mrs.
Barrett and her brother were the real
murderers.
Pope died yesterday under somewhat
peculiar circumstances. Three nights
after the murder he ran screaming into
his sisters room in q great fright and
fell into a swoon. When he recovered
he said that the ghost of the murdered
man had stood by the head OF the bed
and awakened him. His sisters tried to
convince him that he had been dream
ing. but he insisted that he had seen 9
real spirit. The next night the scene
was repeated, and for several nights
thereafter. The young man began to
grow thin and pale uoder the worry and
excitement. The sisters say they sat up
with him one night and heard the groan-
ings and rappings which their brother
had described.
The nightly visits went on, and young
Pope's health became so bad that ply
stefan was called in. lie failed steadily,
however, and FridaYhe was taken to the
county hospital, where he died yesterday
morning.

"And have to thank you, said papa,
"for the protection of my property, Mr..
Lidlaw; I am sincerely grateful"
"And / nm glad to have been OF SER
vice." answered our friend.
My story is almost at its close. One
point which was cleared up at the trial at
Siston assizes was that OF the choice OF
the occasion for the attempt. IL came
out that fictitious letter had been com
piled which would equally have taken
papa from home that stormy February
night; but this part of the scheme was
rendered supernuous by the genial mes
sage OF Sir Hugo Ferris, and the resolve
to which papa subsequently came.

names equally convenient for a month
or a year-was this time punished by q
heavy sentence, her two associates being

cial reason to remember with thankful
ness the deliverance from that dark peril.
To these events owe an introduction to
Harry Lidlaw, Mr.. Lidlaw's nephew.
He, too, is our friend ; and have pro-
missed that one day will let him assume
a still denrer title. 1t is unnecessary to
be more explicit; any loving girls heart
will read the meaning into the riddle.
