METROPOLITAN MELANGE.
Missed Each Other on the Way.
rHrw YORK RuREAu sPEcIALs.1


NEW YORK, May 27.-Mrs. Michael Russell
came from Ireland to New York with baby
and So to find Mr.. Russell. On her arrival here
she learned that he had sailed for Ireland on
the same day on which she sailed for America.
Mrs. Ferdinand Bardel is in a similar fix. Mrs.
Bardel got here on the steamship Amsterdam
just four days after Mr.. Bardel had left for
Europe for the purpose of fetching her to his
home in Brooklyn. Both women will be cared
for at Castle Garden till their husbands return.
Socialist Deserts to the Anarchists.
The Socialists here are much excited by the
alleged treason of Thomas b. Garside. Garside
was a lecturer on the principles Of Socialism,
and travelled about the country at the expense
of the Socialistic party. While atNew Orleans
he concocted astory Of an attempt to assassinate
him. Last Saturday Socialistic newspaper
here charged him with stealing and squander-
ing the funds given to him for safe keeping by
friends of the cause. Garside got back at his
accusers by calling them assassins and thieves
and by deserting to the ranks of the Anarchists.
Johann Most is jubilant because his party has
secured Garside. He says he ''does not believe
that Garside was thief, but at all events Gar
side could not live without money however he
had to get it."

The Canvass and the Polls.

There is one thing Prohibitionists and liquor
men agree on, and that is that no poll can be
made that can be depended on to give accurate
results. The liquor men, taking this view,
abandoned all ideas of making poll, after
giving the matter some consideration. The
Prohibitionists are making a canvass of the
county, in spite of the fact that they held the
view stated. They, however, know that the
more they agitate the question the better for
their cause, and their canvass is conducted
largely for the purpose of keeping the matter
before the people. Their policy is the direct
opposite of the liquor mems The latter say
Massachusetts was Just as well organized by
the Prohibitionists as Pennsylvania, and there
was Just as much enthusiasm in the campaign
there as here. or more so, but at the polls the
vote was on the other side. "If it isn't the same
way here" said Mr.. Pontefract, of Finch q
Co., I'VE can't help it. 1t is for the people
to decide this matter, not US. Yes," he ad-
m1tted, I'VE will probably see to it that on
election day everybody is given an opportunity
to vote against prohibition, but if the people
think we are going to spend any large sums OF
money, and know it is generally expected we
WILL they are greatly mistaken. 1t is not our
fight. 1t is the peoples fight. If they have
mind to crush us out of existence, so much the
worse for US. But if the people think the
liquor business is a harm to society the more
manly way would be to pass a law to suppress
the business and permit US to go into court and
have our loss adjudicated and settled. 1t is
disgrace to any State to do as the proposed
amendment to the Constitution contemplates."

WITH NO BRASS BAND.


The Liquor Men Are Moving Quietly and
Letting the ProhIbltionists Make the
Noise-They Say 1t II the Peoples Fight,
Not Theirs.
The anti-prohibition campaign, so far as the
liquor men are concerned, is proceeding on
very conservative plan. Educational is the
description of the work that IS being done. The
headquarters of the liquor men are in Phila-
delphia. Local movements are, to large ex-
tent, directed from there. Printers ink is the
medium through which the voters are being
reached at present. In the closing days OF the
campaign it is probable oratory will be added
thereto, but even this is not certain. The
liquor men realize that the quieter they
keep the better for them. The whole
sale dealers, distillers and brewers say
they are receiving very little aid from
the Pittsburg retailers, who probably stand
in such wholesome awe of the License
selves conspicuous in any way. The wholesale
committee, assess themselves in proportion to
the amount of their business for the expenses
they find It necessary to incur, but say they do
not intend to lavish money on the campaign.
"Quiet work" Is the work that counts, in their
estimation This Is the experience taught them
IN recent campaigns, especially the late ones in
New Hampshire and Massachusetts,, and there
will be no brass band business in Pittsburg.

Attracted by novel and elegant signs, a re porter stopped at 9s State street, where the smiling face of George B. Hawley of the new undertaking firm of Hawley, Wilmot Key holds greeted him cordially.

These caskets are all made by the Stein Manufactur- ing Co. and are as handsome and substantial
 as can be produced.

Young Man, you ask advice. If you can take advice and profit by it, you are rare man. Lawyers and doctors sell it at high price But if you want it to do you any good, If you ever have any of your own, guard it as mis- CT does his gold. Do not give any to anyone under any circumstances. Whys Scarce one man in n thousand would take it kindly and no woman. Then you might make mistake and such mistakes are never forgiven, not in this world anyway. Do not trouble yourself to have any motives for your advice It will get motives enough hitched to it as ii goes and your own would only be stood on their heads until you would not know them your self. If you wish to give advice and be hap py, find out what kind your friend wants and give that sort. If duty should ever compel you to give advice to q friend, first shake hands and tell your friend good bye. Then talk true. It is the only way you can part as friends.

How to Construct Chimneys.

The present system of the construc-
ton of chimneys is the subject of con-
siderable adverse criticism by archi-
tects and builders, especially the plan
so much pursued of grouping the separ-
ate small, narrow and crooked fiues. A
proper substitute as well as remedy for
this, as suggested, is the construction
of one large flue extending from the
cellar to the highest available point,
with branches from each floor running
up and conn Getting at the ceiling of the
floor above, or direct at each floor to
the main fue, in this manner a guaran-
tee of upward draft being at all times
assured and with no liability to counter
currents. So far as the simple principle of
ventilation is concerned it is urged that
the building of one large main flue.
into which all branches are carried di-
rect from each floor or apartment, is
the only true and safe method by which
present evils can be overcome, and the
lungs be spared from the poisonous
gases they are now forced to inhale, the
fact being well established that no gases
are more poisonous than those of sui
phureted hydrogen or coal gas when
permeating a dwelling. N. Y. Sun.

the day she married the old terrier, I

short time. and Willie was apparently
too Disguised to begin it again, while
the stranger. with placid smile on his
handsome face drummed on the window
sill with his fingers. and gazed about
the car. Finally the smile broadened
into a grin, and turning to Willie he

girls always interest me-" The stran-

beaming face, opened it The next

ago, when she took my name for better
or worse. Here is my card-you will
pardon me for not introducing myself
sooner, but the conversation was SO very
interesting that l decided to postpone
presenting my card"
As Willie read the name. Charles
Jones, on the card, his jaw dropped,
and for a moment he was too dizzy to
see the laughing, good-natured face be-
fore him, but regained his presence of
mind in moment, and commenced an
apology which probably would have
lasted all night, had not the stranger
interrupted him, by Offering him a
cigar. and inviting him to call upon
himself and Mrs. Jones when he found
it convenient Willie hasn't dared to
look himself in the face since. for very
shame, but has changed his mind in re-
gard to the man who married Miss

WORDS OF CAUTION,

Prudence and Economy Necessary to Sue
cess In Farming Pursuits.
On the farm. and in all the various
details Of rural and domestic life, pru-
dence and just economy of time and
means are incumbent in an eminent de-
gree. The earth itself is composed of
atoms, and the most gigantic fortunes
consist of aggregated items, insignifi-
cant in themselves. individually consid-
cred, but majestic when contemplated
in unity and as whole. In the man
agement Of farm, all needless expend-
iture should be Systematically avoided,
and the income made to exceed the out
lay as far as possible. Pecuniary en-
barrassment should always be regarded
as a contingency of evil boding. and If
contended against with energy and per-
severing fortitude, it must soon be
overcome. Debt, with but little hope
Of its removal, is a milestone, dragging
us down and crushing the life out of US.
Be careful, therefore. in mourning any
pecuniary responsibility which does not
present a clear deliverance with the adj
vantages which a wise use Of it ought
always to insure.
A farmer who purchases a good farm
and can pay down one-third of the
price, give mortgage for the other
two-thirds and possesses the heart and
resolution to work it faithfully and
well. enters upon the true path to sue
cess. He will labor with the encour-
ing knowledge that each days exertion
will lessen his Indebtedness, and bring
him nearer to the goal when he shall
be disenthralled, ard become a free
holder in its most cheering sense. But,
without due economy in every depart
ment, in the dwelling as well as in the
barn and in the fields, this gratifying
achievement may not be reached until
late in life, or may be indefinitely post
poned. A prudent oversight, there
fore, over all the operations OF farm,
in order that every thing may be done
that ought to be done, and nothing
be wasted, will exert a powerful in
fuence in placing family on the high
road to an early NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

GOLDEN MEMORIES

Tn growing old. have outlived
The brightness Of the fading past;
The sunny days OF youth are ned,
Their memories only last.
I sit and dream OF good old times
In the years SO long gone by,
Swiftly the pictures come and 60
As my knitting needles fly
Iseem to see a generous hearth
With tire-dogs bright as gold.
A Pickering breeze, a welcome warmth
Bids defiance to the cold.
o staunch old friend! Backlog Of oakl
Giving thy life to make ours bright,
With hiss and blaze and CHEEKY flame
Turning all darkness into light
I'm near thee, in the corner now,
Thou four-foot log Of olden time,
Gazing above TO where the stars
Seemed listening to our jests and rhyme.
The dear old Saints Of long ago
Who smiled sereneIy on our play,
Watching the roasting apples glow,
Or nuts that in the embers lay,
Have gone Their chairs are empty now
Hid in the attic side by side.
And children OF that olden time
Are scattered DER the country wide.
While i. who loved the very stones
That make the household hearth so dear
Can feel the blaze and see the glow
Only as memory brings it near.
