CHARLESTON, W. Va, January 27-
The Democratic leaders are about to reap
the substantial fruits of victory in their

CHARLESTON, January 27.-An inter

the personalities OF the present Legisla-

admirable characters among them. The

this instance used advisedly.

A Story Of stephen Girard.

4 man who had jus, set up in the hard
ware business. and who had been a clerk
where eccentric millionaire Stephen Girard
had been in the habit Of trading, applied to
him for a share Of his patronage. Girard
bought Of him, but when the bill was sent
in he found fault and marked down the
prices.
..Cask of nails, he growled, (which |
was offered for so aud 50. fou have
charged 50 and so, and you must take it
off.
Il cannot do it, said the young mer-
chant,
.sBnt YOU must do it, roared Girard-
II cannot and viii not, was the final
reply.
Girard bolted out, apparently in a rage,
but soon after sent a check for the whole
bin. The young mar began to relent and
say to himself: perhaps Ee was offered
them at that price, but it Is all over now.
| am sorry did not reduce the bill and
get it out of him on something else. HIS
trade would have been worth good deal
to me
By and by Girard came and gave him
another order The young man was very
courteous, and said be was almost sorry be
did not reduce the former bill.
Reduce bill r exclaimed Girard; chad

Smiths whistling Well.

A letter from Topeka, Kansas, says;
President Mailer, of the State department
Of agriculture, has just returned from
trip to Winona, Logan county, where he
went to investigate well owned by X. l..
Smith, farmer living one mile south of
Winona, which he says, is better than any
barometer vet invented 1t is 135 feet
deep aud sends out strong current Of air,
which, as it escapes through the apparatus
about the pumpstock, whistles in loud,
flute ike tone, that is distinctly audible to
every citizen in the township and more
penetrating than the noise of any foghorn.
Ii is rather melodious and heard at dis
tance its varying notes resemble those of
an seolian harp This weird music may be
herd for from six to twelve hours preeed
ing a storm Of wind or rain, or the ap-
proach Of blizzard, and when the tempest
strikes it plays all the louder until it has
passed By, drawing in the air with queer
gurgling sounds la Logan county there
are great many wind storms, and when
ever the people hear Mr. Smiths well
whistling they strike out at once for the
cyelone caves. Hundreds of people have
investigated it, but no attempt is made TO
explain the mystery.

total is large You have to have man for
everything you want done, and he will do
nothing else than that one thing. The
man who washes the dishes will not make
up the beds, and the cook will not attend
to the washing of the dishes. If you keep
horses you must have groom for every
horse, and for every two horses you have
to keep a man to cut grass for them. The
woman-servant who waits upon your wife
does not consider it her business to wait
upon you, and the servants who do the
other work about the house expect you to
have a body-servant to run your own er-
rands If you ask man to do anything
out of his regular business, he says it is
contrary to his caste, and you then know
that you have to submit. There are hun
dreds of eastes in India. They are based
on religious differences, on trade arrange
ments, and on social distinctions. There
is a caste of BARRIERS, of beggars, of thieves,

The storks in Holland.

Everyone knows that the stork is almost
superstitiously beloved by the peasants of
northern Germany and the low countries,
and that iron supports upon which he may
build his nest are set on cottage gables IN
the belief that where stork has his brood
fire will never come. Nevertheless, trav-
elerS are often surprised when they see how
tame the great birds become, following the
agriculturist through field and furrow, and
often sleeping on one tall red leg close to
where he is at work; and within sound OF
the rumble of the passing railroad train.
So fond is the German of having storks
about him, indeed, that he makes provision
for its nests even in the centre of his bulb
fields. Here one may often see slender
poles some twenty or thirty feet in length,
supported by braces, and bearing at the top
small round platform similarly strength
ened. On these the storks build their
nests, and here they perch, like sentinels,
protecting the beautiful crops.
