Landlord Caleb SpofTord, of the Riggs
House, making the introductions. As
h President was nearly surrounded by
ladies Mr.. Spofferd pinned one of the
long silken badges of the order on the
Presidential coat. For a moment the
President did not appear to notice the
action. When he did notice it, he
quietly removed the badge from his
coat and handed it back to the discom-
forted giver with the remark ''This is
entirely unnecessary" The significance
OF this action is easily understood when
one remembers that the order is gener-
ally supposed to be violently antagonis.

1.-THE French revolution" says this
expert, twas followed by such a pre-
valence of insanity in France as that
country has never known before OF
since. People become insane at the
time of excitement, or afterwards from
the reaction. The explanation is easy.
During a period of great excitement
there is greatly inclosed work for the
brain, and that calls the blood to the
brain to sGstain these mental operations.
If that flow is aggravated by the excite
ment for a week or so, the habit is
formed and the blood continues to flow
to the brain after the occasion has
ceased. The brain is clogged with ii
and mental disturbance follows. If the
wilder excitement was followed by
more milder-form of excitement, ill.,
stead of the sombre gloom of financial
depression and blighted prospects, there
would be forever cases of insanity at
Johnstown. But of course you can't
talk to a ruined lab0rer of the benefits
of European travel in his case. How
ever, this form of insanity is fortunate
ly not permanent or even very long con-
tinued.

Michigan has a dopted county local
option law which contains the follow
ing provisions. If the county votes in
favor of prohibition the supervisors
have power to adopt a resolution pro-
hibiting the sale of liquors, but are not
compelled to do so, only as morally
bound by the decision of the voters.
The relatives of people injured i'll per-
sou or property by liquor sold them in
prohibition counties can recover act,
ual damages from the seller. The last
clause is excellent law and if we are
not mistaken, New Jersey has a slmi-
lar law which compels liquor sellers to
pay for damages to property done by
persons under the influence of their
liquor sold them. But how rare is the
damages paid! Who can compensat e
a man for the injury liquor does him
and his family and often friends?

TeIecral>lly Puzzled Him.

A man who had never seen the in
side Of telegraph Office wandered
into that of New London the other
day, and as some one came in with a
message asked to ''see it CO." He was
taken inside and gratitied, but was not
inclined to believe that message was
really sent by the clicking key.
Finally Manager Smith built a short
circuit in the operating room, with
Operator Costello at one end and the
old man and the manager ut the other.
Then Mr.. Smith requested the old
fellow to whisper something to him
and he would send it to Costello. He
did SO, but when he saw his words
written out at the other end of the
short circuit he claimed that Costello
heard him when he told Manager
Smith what to send. Mr.. Smith sug-
gested to him that he should write on
paper what he wanted to say, and then
he could convince himself that there
was no 'shcnanagin" about it. The
old fellow did so, and Mr.. Smith sent
it to Costello, who returned the words
on paper. Even then he could hardly
be convinced, but he concluded that
''it was the durndest thing he ever
saw" He spent half an hour in the
office and furnished a great laugh for
the operators and messenger boys.
He hailed from Ledyard and had
never been in telegraph office before.

BUCKEYE.

The Buckeye mining and milling con-
pany have again discontinued operations
on the Buckeye ground. The pumps
have been drawn and all work has ceased
indefinitely. The true cause for this ac-
tion is unknown on the outside; but it is
the general opinion that it is to freeze
out some of the stockholders who have
been hanging back and would not put
up their just amount OF the capital re-
quired in development work.
Mr.. Kinney was seen yesterday by
MAIL representative, and on beng asked
if the shutdown Of the mine was perlna-

The Ticket "Scalper."

The class of business men formerly
called ''scalpers" are looked upon to-
day by railway homogeneous and the
travelling public generally as indis-
pensable to the business of one and
the convenience of the other. Ticket
brokers arc now numbered by the
hundreds. So far as l can learn, tho
original ''scalper' was Lansing, of
Baltimore, the president of the largest
of the national associations of ticket
brokers. lie was, fifteen years ago, a
hotel clerk in Baltimore, and when
thus engaged it frequently fell into
his line to buy at bargain and sell at
a profit unused portions of railroad
tickets. He saw there was money in
the BUSINESS, and hung out sign,
Railroad tickets bought, sold or ex-
changed" At once he had imitators
throug ghout the east, and from the
peddling of unused portions of tickets
grew the present far reaching system,
for it must be understood that if the
business of the ticket broker was con-
fined to tho sale of return coupons,
etc., one man could do all the business
done in St. Louis, and he would starve
to death at it.-One of Them III Globe

Sea Lions or tho Pacific Coast.

Mr.. Mcclure says there have been a
good many sea lions around the rock
of late fishing for salmon. One of
these monsters will dive down and in
a short time come up with salmon in
his mouth, give it a few shakes, which
slap it around his ears so that the
crack can be heard on the rock, and
break the fish in two. He will then
swallow one-half and dive after the
remainder and swallow it. There is
one hugo old sea lion, which is blind
in one eye and has evidently been
driven forth on the cold charities of
an unfeeling world by the other lions,
as he haunts the rock and is made a
sort of pet Of by the light keepers, who
throw him biscuits, which he eats.
He will allow them to como within ten
feet of him when basking on the rock.
They call him Dick and he appears to
know his name. He will raise his
head and answer with his musical
howl. The ether lions swim around
the rock, but evince no desire to culti-
vate the acquaintance of the dwcllers
thereon. On the rocks near the shore
is a regular rookcry, where hundreds
of these lions congregate.-Portland
