Edison Electric Light company. Mr..
Gilman is very tail, very straight, very
blonde and very swell He was in the
army and he walks with military pre-
cision. His face is smoothly shaYen,
his smile is strongly polite, and he
dances with the stiffness of a West
Point cadet, who is afraid his trousers
will bag at the knees. MIR. Gilman has
created sensation. He has come to
the lake prepared to enjoy himself ''by
land and sea" He has beautiful naptha
launch that is sup erbly furnished.
All the ironwork is nickel
plated, and all the woodwork is
highly polished, and there is
a pretty little cannon.which can be fired
off and make most respectable noise.
Mr.. Gilman is very FOND or his launch.
1t was made to his order and cost 1900.
There is never Speck of dust about the
boat. 1t is painfully neat. Then Mr..
Gilman has tandem, the very finest
tandem in the Northwest, which he
keeps at the lake. The horses are mag
nificent dapple grays, full of spirit and
perfectly matched. And they are at
tached TO the most elaborate and natty
dog carts, by particularly swell blonde
harness.. When MIR Gilman sits be-

the envy of every one, and happy is the
girl whose good fortune it is to sit be-
side him.
The most magnifcently dressed
ladies at the lake this season are known
as ''the Einsteins.' There is father,
mother and two daughters, but two of
the daughters are married. One of the
daughters, pretty brunette, is the
wife of NJ. l.. Rosenfeld, of Minneapo-
lis. Mr.. Einstein lives in Chicago, on
Michigan avenue. He is retired mer-
chant, and has no end of money. He is
the father of Benny Elnstein, who is
generally called "Pinky," because of
his hair and complexion. s.Pinky" is
the greatest dresser on the road" so
his fellow brothers say. The daughters
Of MI. EinStein have no end of beauti-
full gowns from famous modlstes in New
York and Paris. But their croWning
glory is their hair. Some hairdresser
must spend hours over it, SO perfectly
and 'artiSticaIly is it arranged, and so
eddy, too. There is not a woman at
the Lafayette who does not envy them
their headdreSser.

The Death Ticker.

As most people know. the death
watch is a small beetle which frequents
decayed or rotten wood, and is of
lonely and retiring habits. 1t is one
OF the smallest of the vagipennia, of a
dark brown. with irregular bright
brown spots, the helmet turning up
and the upper lip hard and shining.
1t produces the ticking sound by peck
ing at the wood with 4 small hard
proboscis. when in the act of procuring
food. The writer once chased down a
death watch through pile of old
papers in a cigar box, and was FORUM
ate enough at last to see it at work.
The ticking was quite as loud as that
of an old-fashioned watch, while the
insect was not much larger than the
head of black pin.-San francisco
Chronicle.

her champions are shclling nuts, when
they observed little red mouse creep
out of her parted lips and run out of
the window. One of those present
then shook the sleeper, but, not sue

another place. Presently the mouse
ran back to the former place and dash

wood in the Black Forest fell asleep
over his work, when his man saw a
mouse creep out of his mouth and run
away; every one searched for the ami
nal, but could not findit, and the miller
never awoke. In Bohemia it was con-
thirsty. as the soul was sure to wander
abroad in search of water. Barring
Gould tells the story of three laborers,
having lost their way in the woods,
and, parchei with thirst, seeking in
vain for water At last one of them
lay down and fell asleep, while the
others continued their search until
they found a spring. After drinking

The CObbie Pickers.

4 peculiar and not altogether pleas
lag sight about the iron and steel
works in this city is the groups of
men, women and children that are
constantly prodding and digging in
the cinder dumps. and are known as
"cobble pickers." The men are al
ways old and frequently weak and tot
tering, The mark of poverty is on all
The women, and the children, who are
in the majority, are abject-looking
creatures and range from the age of s
10 is. Cobbles are the bits of iron and
steel that remain among the cinders
from the furnaces, and are dumped
with them on the cinder piles. On the
Gathering of these bits of metal the
small army of toilers referred 10 de-
pend for their living. With hoes and
rakes they dig in the cinders as they
are dumped, and struggle, and push
and wrangle for the possession of the
metal as it is uncovered.
Each picker has basket in which is
placed the result of the pickings. Over
200 persons daily delve on the grimy
dump for cobbles. While they will
use all manner of means to secure pos
session of lucky find in the dumps,
after picker has filled his basket and
emptied it on his ''pile," few feet
away, there is not one among the cur
ious and by no means scrupulous pick
ers who would touch one of the cob
bles in it. Each picker has his or her
pile of cobbles, and the iron company's
teams come around at intervals. The
driver weighs each pile, gives the owner
q voucher for it, and takes the accum-
ulated metal to the scrap heaps to be
melted again.
The earnings of the cobble pickers
range from SO to $40 month, and
there arc women who have been on the
dumps for years. The case of one
woman and her 12-ycar-old daughter
is notorious, because they earn not
only their own living. but enough to
feed and clothe the husband and father,
who is an employe of the iron works
and gets 500 a month, which he
squanders in drink and riotous living
as soon rs he is paid. One old man on
the cobble dumps, who is barely able
to save enough to keep him from
starving, was once prominent busi-
ness man worth at least $4,000.
The work of cobble picking is one Of
the lowest forms of human occupation,
and its degrading effect on the young
girls and boys engaged in it is only toe
apparent. Many efforts have been
made by the church and other societies
il Johnstown to suppress cobblc pick
ing among children, but with indiffer.
ent success. s.-J0hnst0l0n (Pa.) Letter.

Courtship in Alaska.

John Warnken is bold mariner and
fisherman who. during the past seven
months, has been engaged at fishing
station in Alaska, but is now on the
briny ocean as coasting seaman.
There is heavy burden on Johns
heart and mind, and it will require a
lieves himself of the weight. This
burdenis no less than a separation
from his lady love in far-off Alaska.
For two years past Warnken, or, as he
IS termed, "Nickel-plated Johnny
has been hopelessly smitten with the
charms of the young daughter of an
old half-breed Alent rejoicing in the
name OF MeIekoff. Nightly he would
venture on frail boat across the raging
waters Of the river to visit his lady love,
but, beyond the signs that the lovers
are to greet their inamoratas with,
neither he nor she were able to con-
verse with one another unless by the
aid of an interpreter.
Matters, however eliminated in
proposal of marriage during August
last. The proposition was accepted,
and it was arranged that the wedding
should take place when the Russian
priest visited the village. The eccles-
iaStic arrived, but Johnny's colaborers
were grievously disappointed, and
Johnny himself saw his vision of bliss
fading when the priest refused to marry
him unless he could procure some
documentary evidence to prove that he
had no wife living. His hopes thus
dashed to the ground, he moped and
pondered so seriously that his condi-
ton, both mentally and physically be-
came alarming. When Bishop. Vlad-
mir visited Alaska, Warnken applied
to him for permission to marry his dear
Marcia, but again he met with a re-
fusal. With a determination worthy
OF better cause, he resolved to en-
doavor to marry his lady love under
the laws of the United States. He
stated to the father that by getting her
TO Kadjak he thought to enlist the SER
vices of the school teacher, who is an
ordained minister and also acts under
dispcnsation from Gov. Swineford as
justice of the peace. With many en-
braces and VOWS of eternal love ex-
changed in panotmimic manner,
Johnny and his fair Marcia bid adieu.
When the vessel returned to the fishery
letter was received from the tickle
mariner stating that ''as he could not
obtain work in Kodiak for the winter
his dear Marcia must wait for him till
next year. Meanwhile he would save
his money and work hard this winter
SO as TO marry her in the coming sum-
mer. This letter was written in Rus
sia to the girls father and evoked con-
siderable wrath on the head of the de-
parted swain. When the last vessel
left the fishing station there were Iu-
mors that the fair Marcia had trans
ferred her affections to friend of
Johnny's, who remains at the station
during the present winter. 1t may be
ated aGao the Russian priests and
Bishop Vladimir view with great dis
ike the marriage of any Aleut or Gre
ole woman to an American.
