SOME GOLDEN DOTS.

The following, from an unknown
source, contains advice which ex-
perienced business men indorse and
young men will do well to follow:
Have but one business, know 1T
thoroughly, and attend personally to
it's minutest details.
Be self-rellant, concentrate Your
energies in a determination and
supreme effort to conquer success.
Keep yonr own counsel, attend
strictly to business, and never dab
BILE in anything foreign to it; curtail
your expenses, never sacrifice safety
TO prospective large returns, cut
short your losses and let your pro-
fits run on, and make your prime
movers industry, economy and fair
dealing.
1t Is the merest rant and bosh to
rely on Luck He is always lndo-
lent and whining, folding his arms,
drinking and smoking, waiting for
big prizes in lotteries, or lying abed
expecting letter with news of
legacy. On the contrary, Labor and
Pluck are the invincible heroes who
conquer success; they strike out
how paths, create, contrive, think,
plan, originate, take all legitimate
risks, toll to snrmount obstacles,
push forward, win renown by suc-
cess. The glorious galaxy of sue,
cessful business men and illustrious
authors have been hard workers.
Shun bad company and the prcva.
lent vices Of the day, never loan a
borrowing FREUD more than you are
able to lose if he cannot pay, and
never take loan on Importantly.
Never borrow money to specu-
late with.
Acquire knowledge. 1t is only
enlightened men who successfully
hold their own with the surging
masses who throng the road to
riches.
.Avo'd law and legal squabbles of
every kind.
In discussing business arguments
keep cool.
Make all the money you can and
do all the goon yoa can with it, re-
membering that he who lives for
bimself alone lives for the meanest
man in creation.
If engaged in public business, ad-
vertise it, be punctual in meeting
promised paymeats, keep short ac-
counts, settle often, he clear and OK.
Plicit in making bargains,
Be civil and ooliging as well as
decisive and prompt with customers,
and do not over,rade your capital.
Finally, in the maturity OF life,
don't rust out by retiring from busi-
ness, keep bright by useful effort, re-
msmbering that industry and hspp,s
moss are Inseparable.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT,

/ Harrison varied his regular Sum
day amusement by going to Cape
May to see the old lady and the
babies instead of going yachting
down the Potomac with stag party
as he has done for several Sundays
past He returned 10 Washing to-
day but will 60 away again soon. In
fact the time between trips seems to
be principally occupied in deciding
where he shall go next. lie will go
most anywhere provided he is al.
lowed to deadheaG. He went to
Cape May and returned as guest Of
the Ponnsylvania railroad. His
conduct in this respect is in marked
contrast with that of Mr.. Cleveland,
who accepted no favors from rail-
roads, but always paid bis fare like
other passengers, but that isnat the
only contrast to be observed be-
tween the two men by long shot.
Hon. Samuel J. Randall, with his
family, has gone to Psnnsylvania
tor the summer. 1t will be good
news to democrats everywhere to
learn that Mr.. Randall has entirely
recovered his health. The day of
bis departure he expressed himself
as feeling better than for several
years.
The only Virginia appointment of
any consequence made last week
Nas MAhone man to be u. S. atior.i
ney for the western district of the
state. Still Malone has no pull on
the administration. Oh, no.
Harrison is evidently afraid of
some OF the postmasters that Assist
ant Postmaster General Clarkson is
appointing. He took occasion to
tell a delegate that be was not res.
ponsible for the fourth class post
masters appointed.
Calvin S, Brice, chairman of the
national democratic committee. it ia
said, will be q candidate for the u.
S. senate from Ohio, to succeed Mr..
Payne, who decIines again being a
candidate. Ohio will do herself
proud if she sends MI. Brice to the
senate.
About 1000 ex.union soldiers ex-
pect to get back to the public trough
through Harrison's changing Of tho
civil service rule limiting the time
in which discharged employees fron
the classified service may be rein
stated.
Blaine is the funny man of the
cabinet. He tells Harrison funny
stories and the other boys laugh.
He'll make them do something else
before this administration comes to
an end.
Hon s. S. Cox has gone on an ex.
tended western trip. He will de-
liver q Fourth of July oration at
Huron, Dakota. Erom there be
goes to the Pacific coast.
An act passed by the Arizona leg
islature and approved by the gov
ernor providing for the holding of a
convention for the purpose of ira.
ming state constitution, has been
decided BY the attorney general to
be valid.
Washington contributed $55, 900
to the Pennsylvanla food sufferers.

There are very few democratic
congressman around Washington

Western Union and Lake Shore Awake
 From Their Lethargy and the Coal
 Stocks are Again Prominent for Their Strength. While she Market
 Closes Firm at Fractional Gains.
 NEW YORK. Sept. %.
 At the Stock Exchange to-day the London buying of Union Pacific, St. Paul, Louisville, Western Union and specalties were the feature or the days operations but the fact that the two o'clock prices in London were not above our closing made some suspicion that the buying orders emenated from this side Union Pacific attracted the lions share of the attention and while the extreme rise In the stock was only one and quarter per cent 1t was accompanied by an assortment or rumors, among which an alliance with the Manitoba, the pur- chase of the Fort Worth and Denver, and new pool in the stock most conspicuous, while the handsome increase in the earnings undoubtedly had positive influence. Louisville and Nashville was largely traded in, but the extreme fuctuation in the stock was only fveeighths per cent and it's final changes were insignificant. Western Union became prime favorite in the afternoon and the business in 1t exceeded anything done In 1t Tor @ long time Lake Shore also at the same time awoke from it's lethargy and scored one per cent. rise. Denver was feature in the forenoon and reached the highest price yet attained, after which It De- came dull and held steady at close to It's best figure. Among the inactive shares there were marked improvements in Snort Line. Mannat1an | and some others, but Tennessee Coal was weak spot after it's first advance of one and threequar- l CTS. The Coal stocks were again prominent for strength, and Jersey Central and Delaware and | Hudson continued their upward march. The Trusts were dull and fairly well held until late in the day, when Sugar made another dip, the pressure being specially severe and drop of two per cent result ed, though the others were quiet and steady throughout Realixations on the days rise began toward delivery hour, but while there was some re- cession from the best figures the market closed firm and generally at fractional advances over first | prices.
 In the railroad bond market Fort Worth and Don rsts figured for $117, 900, while the total sales of all only $683, ,000 and the fluctuations and interest in the dealings were on equally limited | scale. There were few marked changes mostly | advances but the general were limited to the smallest fractions.

A HOY TRAMP.
A wild. Weird Story.

NEW YORK, Sept 26.-"Marcy" Moran is @ juvenile victim to the thirst for adventure. He is thirteen years old. He started off a week ago with "Red the Bum," "High Bridge," and one or two other boys. It need not be remarked that these lurid names are not the ones the boys were ohristened with, but appellations that they have selected for their wild, unlswful career. Master Marcius 0. Moran is a grandson of the late Inspector Thorne. He fell in with this gang of young toughs and they inveigled him away, ''High Bridge," who is known in the privacy of the home circle by the more modest name of John Sherer, jr., has returned home. He gave the history of young Moran's wander ings. "Marcy lives at 883 East One Hun. dred and Thirty-sixth street. The gang hangs out on Brook avenue, where the Harlem branch of the N. Y., N. H. and H. railroad comes in. High Bridge" says the boys got Marcy interested by the stories of the rack cts they used to have in their outings and he wanted to go along.
 "High Bridge, e,"'' Red the Bum" and "Mar- cy" struck out on foot for New Haven. They as far as Larchmont and then stole a ride on a passenger train to Rye. There they again took to the road. They found an old tumble down building few miles on and they made t their hotel. While here the trio

 At twenty minutes to nine our course was suddenly interrupted by barricade across the roadway. Crossing this, fallen trees which had evidently been lately cut were discovered in the road, and moment later we perceived that we were by great wash out. Every one will remember the exces. sive rains before the end of July, and Berk- shire received generous share. Here be- fore us as we picked our way the road was eight feet below the former level. Great boulders had been brought to light by the waters which overaowing the bank, had taken the road. Indeed we seemed to be in 8 dry river bed rather than on the road. We no sooner passed one washout when the dark chasms of another would appear. Very care- light to avoid the innumerable pitfalls and gullies on every side. The appearance of the road with the trees on each side, and the sound of waters tumbling over rocks within the woods, all under the moonlight, was very weird. Twenty minutes were occupied in passing this place.
 Just before evening the pleasant town of Hinsdale, the Asmere reservoir was crossed and right glorious scene was presented to us. It was just after nine o'clock when standing upon . bridge the lake burst upon our view. The moon had passed the first quarter, the sky was perfectly clear, while below the sparkling water as 1t danced in the moonlight was magnificent spectacle. A light breeze scarcely perceptible just dis- turbed the surface of the water, which was much higher than its usual level. To the south enoircling hills added their sombrs hills a setting to this most enchanting scene. We oould spend but few moments

one way of egress from each of the wings
and in tue event of fire that might be choked
or cut off. If n fire should catch in any part
of the building Nebraska would have u fewer
insane to care for. There is a leaky water
tank on the roof, but it only holds forty or
