Improvement I'm Clubs.

Time was when looked upon the SO
called social clubs, of which there are
fully couple OF hundred distributed
over the city, as nursebeds of vice and
training schools of hoodlumism. My
views have undergone decided
change of late years, in keeping with
the change in the conduct of the clubs
themselves. Five years ago the clubs
were for the most part organizations
of very bad boys, and their meetings
were simply beer drinking bouts, but
now many of the clubs have finely
equipped quarters, and the member
ship Is composed of hard working and
respectable young men, who meet
really for improvement. do not
mean that there is much about the
nightly sessions thatsuggests the Chau-
tauqua circle or the society for ethical
culture, but they do meet and enjoy
themselves with singing and musical
instruments, reading Of papers, and
books sometimes, or q social game Of
cards. The social club results in keep

How She Took Caro- OF Money.

Albanians who entered the Adiron-
dack region last summer via North
Greek and stopped at that little village
to look after their mail will not forget
the pretty young woman at the post
office who answered their inquiries
and did it SO well. She was the
daughter of Postmaster Sheehan, q
neat, jaunty, business like miss, and
the entire management of the postoffice
seemed to be in her hands. More than
one visitor made the comment that she
herself ought to be postmaster, as she
filed the place SO well. Not long
since neglect was charged against
Postmaster Sheehan in not forwarding
his money statements to the Albany
Office. Investigation was made by o
postonce inspector and Miss Sheehan
to his amazement, when asked to &C
count for about $1,000 of the
postoffice funds, produced shoe
box, in which she had tho
money packed away in various
strange receptacles. She had made it
a habit to carry tho money with her
to and from the office, and her novel
bank proved to be a good deal more
secure than some iron or steel safes
have been. Miss Sheehan impressed
those who met her with her ability
to take care of herself and to run her
fathers postothce. Albany Journal.

A GhOstly Workman.

Several weeks ago a belated way
farcr was passing q mill in the south
part of the town late one night when
he was not a little astonished to hear
a tap! tap! tap! a sort of clinking
sound, exactly as if a pick Was being
struck against milestone. No one
was in the mill at the time, it being
dark and still. He told his story to
several persons, but was hooted at. OF
late the mysterious sounds have again
been heard, and always late at night.
A few nights ago an excited thrOng
congregated near the mill, listening
to the mysterious sounds. Tho mo-
notous clinking kept regularly sound
ing, as if the ghost of the workman
was finishing his neglected tasks. The
sound seemed to come from far up in
the building, near the roof in fact.
Several Of the perplexed listeners en-
deavored to persuade some one to go
into the building and solve the mys-
terry they themselves dare not investi-
gate, but no offer of love or money
could tempt a single venturesome soul
to enter the mill. AS the steady clink,
clink, clink sounded continuously,
even the bravest grew almost un-
comfortable, and general STAN
pede was the result. The follow
ing night was simply repetition
of the preceding one-the ghostly
workman still steadily tapped
away at the milestone and the excited
listeners could but stand spellbound
until their fears proved too much for
them. Once or twice since has the
sound been heard, but no one has yet
been found brave enough to beard the
ghostly terror in its lofty abode

pencil is long. These blocks are easily
split into slabs a little thicker than tho
finished pencil, which is about FIVE
sixteenths of an inch. These are passed
through planning machine and over
an emery belt, which makes them
even and smooth. Next they are
pushed into tho jaws of n machine
called crocodile" which consists Of
pair OF steel plates, in the under ono
OF which arc six rows Of curved
knives, each being set so as to cut a
little deeper than the preceding one.
These pillow out parallel groove half
way through the slab, which is then
turned and laid on a steel plate having
ridges which just fit these grooves.
This slides back under the six rows of
teeth of another crocodile" which
cuts the grooves on the other side and
leaves the square pencils side by side.
They are then rounded and pointed
by holding them on an emery belt,
and one man can thus sharpen about
5000 day.
This factory makes 10000 pencils
daily, and employs twenty-five hands.
We might wonder where so many pen
ellis go, but when we consider that
there arc one or two million school
boys and girls, and many of them
rather careless, and that slate pencils
are easily broken, we have no doubt
the factory will have its ''hands full"
to supply the demand.
The old way of making pencils was
to saw them out square from the slab
one by one. They were then boxed
and distributed among poor families,
who whitfield them round by hand for
