Praise Whenever You Can.

There was little boy known to us
whose naturally sullen disposition and
ungovernable fits of temper were en-
tirely eradicated by judicious system
of commentator and approval When
ever he was good his mother would
notice it, and express her pleasure in
it, and tell him that he was her good
boy, and she always expected him to
be good like that. And when his
naughty fits came on she would put her
arms around him, and tell him that
was not like her good boy, and she
knew he did not want to do it, and she
loved him, and it made her so happy
to have him good. He could never
resist this loving treatment, and be-
came, while still Il very little fellow.
just the sweet-tempered, good little
boy his mother had led him to think
she expected him to be. How often a
child, in utter Encouragement at the
continual blame which meets it on
every side, has said in his heart:
"Well, it is of no use; they always tell
me am naughty, anyhow, and guess
/ can't be good, so won't try. AR

Decidedly PIatonic Partnerships.

1t may be interesting to know that
very platonic partnerships are formed
among the patrons of boarding houses
which do not furnish meals. A clerk
on a small salary will enter into the
most commonplace business partner
ship with fair typewriter, who hap
pens also to be patron of the estab-
lishment. They frequent restaurants
together for dinner. and have every
thing nice and in the season. They
order one soup, one portion of fish,
one entree, an extra dessert, and di-
vide the expense. Some of these part
nerships have not been successful of
late. The male member has preferred
roast beef and the fair creature would
have chicken, and this difference in
taste has dissolved some of the part
nerships. The men partnerships seem
to get along better than a man and
woman partnership, although it is not
so pleasant. 1t will be observed that
the partnership between the man and
woman is of such business-like char
acter that the moment one objects to
one dish that the other likes there is
a complete severance of the agree
ment, but there is no ill feeling be-
tween them.-N. Y. Sun.

The Novel Method in Vogue In the Fol-

Said an ex-prison official. who is
''They have new and novel method
OF maintaining discipline in the State
prison at Folsom, Cal. and as near as
can learn it is proving a great sue
cess. They have no dungeons or dark
cells in the prison, corporal punish
ment is unheard of, tying up by the
thumbs is never permitted, in short,
none OF the old modes of punishment
are recognized in this institution. The
system in vogue is this: When a new
prisoner is received he is informed
that they have three different bills of
fare in the prison. and that it is OPP
tiOnal with each man as to how he
lives. If he is Industrious, orderly
we'll behaved, and in all things, con-
forming strictly to the rules of the
prison, he is served with excellent food
nicely cooked. He can have chops,
steaks. eggs. tea and coffee, milk,
white bread, ETC.; if he is only fairly

lotted task properly, is inclined to
growl and grumble at the regulations
of the institution, he is given ordinary
prison fare, mush and mOlasses, soup.
corn bread. etc; and if he is ugly and
insubordinate, he is permitted to feast
on unlimited quantities of cold water
and a rather small allowance of bread.
You can have no idea how hard the
convicts try to enter the first class,
and once there. it's seldom that one
of them has to be sent back to lower
class. thus going to prove the truth
of the old theory that men are most
easily reached through their stom-
achs. detroit Free Press.

THE SEATS COLLAPSED

a Large Number of Persons More or Less
Seriously Injured by the Collapse of the
Seats of a Circus at Milford, Mass.
MILFORD, Mass, July 17.-At an exhi-
bition here last evening of w. H. Bristol
s. Co.'s Circrtsi two different sections Of
seats caved in with hundreds of people
thereon. The performance had hardly
begun when one third of the seats on the
entire west side of the tent gave way and
with 600 people fell with a crash. Sew
dreds more or less bruised and damned.
Physicians were summoned, and the bro
ken seats and injured people were
removed. The performance had just
been resumed wien half of the reserved
seat section with 200 more spectators fell
in. This created a panic, and it was with
much difficulty that order was restored
without serious injury to more people
1t was found that the supports of the
seats in the wet ground had been forced
Adewnward by oyercrOwding, thus causing
the collapse. In the second accident
no one was seriously hurt. but many were
slightly cut and bruised. Those badly
injured are: Peter Fahy, aged fourteen,
of Milford; thigh broken.
, Mrs. Stevens, of Hopedale; ankle bro
ken.
Mrs. Keith, of Milford; internally in
jured.
Mrs. Porter Shields, of Milford; injured
internally.
A boy named Butterfield, back injured.
Nearly all who went down with the
seats were more or less damned. cut or

SUBSTITUTE FOR COAL.
A New Fuel Adapted for Domestic as We
as Manufa curing Purposes.

A New Fuel Adapted for Domestic as Well
as Misunderstanding Purposes.
Petrole is the name given to man
ufactured substitute for coal, made by
a firm in Minnea polls. and is the direct
outcome of the scarcity of fuel which
has retarded the birth of manufacture
ing industries in that city and in fact
the whole Northwest. It is made
from saw-dust. the residuum of crude
petroleum, and a number of other in
gradients which are not made known
by the inventors. The residuum of
petroleum is mixed with the other ma
terial, and is heated in large sheet
iron tank to four hundred degrees Fab.
1t is then run into a mixing machine
where it is thoroughly mixed with the
sawdust, and is afterward carried by
means of a chute to a heavy press,
where it is subject to a pressure of
one thousand pounds to the square
inch, and nodded into blocks ten inches
long. four inches wide and three
inches thick. 1t is claimed for this
new fuel, which has been successfully
tested, that it is cheaper, and its re-
suits as satisfactory in every way as
coal. Arrangements are being per-
fected in Minneapolis for its manu-
facture on a large scale, and the right
to use the invention has already been
sold in number of States. 1t is as we'll

uring purposes, and the blocks can be

THE HUMAN VOICE.
Its Melodious Qualities Are Destroyed by
the Use of Stimulants.

Its Melodious Qualities Are Destroyed by
the Use of Stimulants.
Tobacco. alcohol and fiery condi-
ments of all kinds are best avoided by
those who have to speak much. or, at
least, they should be used in strict
moderation. / feel bound to warn
speakers addicted to the ''herb nico-
tiann against cigarettes. Like tipping,
the effect of Understanding is Gu
mulative, and the slight but constant
absorption of tobacco juice and smoke
make the practi ce far more nOxious in
the long run than any other form of
smoking. Our forefathers, who used
regularly to end their evenings under
the table, seem to have suffered little
of the well-known effects of alcohol
on the nerves, while the modern
tippler. who is never intoxicated, is
being whose whole nervous
system may be said to be
in a state of chronic Inflammation. In
like manner, cigarette smokers Chose
at least who inhale The smoke and do
not merely puff it '.from the lips out
ward" as Carlyle would say) are often
in a state of chronic narcotic poison
ing. The old jest about the slow
ness of the poison may seem APP
plicable here; but though the process
may be slow, there can be little doubt
that it is sure. Even if it does not
kill the body. it too often kills or
greatly impairs the victims working
efficiency and usefulness in life. The
local effects of cigarettes in the mouth
must also be taken into account by
those whose work lies in the direction
of public speech. The white spots
on the tongue and insides of the
checks known as smokers patches"
are believed by some doctors with spe-
cial experience to be more common in
devotees of the cigarette than in 9TH
er smokers; this unhealthy condition
of the mouth may not only make speak
ing troublesome, or even painful, but
it is now proved to be a predisposing
cause of cancer. All fiery or pungent
foods, condiments or drinks tend to
cause congestion of the throat. and if
this condition becomes chronic it may
lead to impairment if not complete
loss of the voice. The supposed mirac-
ulous virtues of the mysterious pos
sets and dr;sughts on which some ora
tors pin their faith eqist mainly in the
Imagination of those who use them;
at best they do nothing more than lu-
bricate the joints of the vocal machine
so as to make it work more smoothly.

ST. LOUIS MURDER.

The BODY OF Frank Brennan Pound in
ST. Louis. Near the Spot where Anna
weiss was Murdered, with q Bullet i'm
His Brain-Evidence About the Body
Pointing to Murder and Robbery.
ST. LOUIS, July 17.-An awful discovery
was made by some workmen walking
dome along Union avenue at an early
nour this morning. Near the corner of Page
and Union avenues, within q short dis.
lance of the spot where poor Anna Weiss
was murdered. was found the body of a
murdered man. The body was found
lying face downward with a bullet hole in
the head about two inches behind the left
ear.
Within few feet of him was found a
pistol ALI the circumstances surrou nd
ing the affair indicate that it was case
of foul, cold FLOODED murder and not
suicide. The tails Of the mans coat wero
considerably torn, and in such a manner
as to indicate that he had been holly pur-
sued by some one who had caught mold
of the coat in an effort to hold him, and
that In violently breaking away from the
assasain's grasp the garment had been
torn.
The hair OF the victims head was close.
ly cpt and slightly tinged with gray.
There was not the slightest indication
of its having been singed or blackened

if the man had shot himself. Superin-
tendent of the Morgue Praedicow, after
examining the wound, said that it plainly
showed that the man was shot from some
little distance.
The mans vest and shirt were both cut
in front. indicating that he had first been
assailed in front The cut was rather
ragged, as though done with dull in
strumenI.
Some money and ticket of the Com
mercial Club OF Kensington Garden and
several yards of cord were found in his
pockets. The body was found one block
south of Page on Union avenue. Cap
tain Frutche OF the Fifth district was noti-
fed ard had the remains removed to the
morgue. A black derby hat, slightly
crushed, was found near at hand. In a
pocket OF the vest was found three
ounce silver watch, double case, P. s.
Bartlett movement, No. 3,65S 131 and case
numbered S5.15S, gold-plated chain,
which was broken in the center, with
small round charm attached.
The name OF 1T" or ST. Brennan" was
deciphered on the club ticket, written
with lead pencil, and the words "Ask
10, 604 Elm street, p. Brennan" Near
the body was found 3S-caliber double
action revolver, from which one shot had
been discharged. Five dollars and twen
ty-nine cents was found in the mans hip
pocket

pockets were turned inside out when the
body was found.
During the eFenins the body was iden-
tifisd at the norgue as that of Frank
Brennan, who recently came here from
Kansas City, where he had been employed
as a gripman on the cable railway in that
city. He was taking holiday and having
a good time in his own way.

BRET HARTE's STORIES.
A Fair Proof-Reader Who Objected t.
Their Moral Tone.

| A Fair Proof-Reader Who Objected to
Their Moral Tone.
1t was, of course, that admirable
story, THE Luck of Roaring Camp"
that first won fame on both sides OF
the Atlantic for Mr.. Bret Harte, made
his fortune, and showed that great
writer had arisen; but the story was
not suffered to appear with out pro-
test. Readers know that there is no
purer writer than this delightful nov
elist. who has never penned line that
the severest moralist would blot; but
when 1.-The Luck of Roaring Camp
was put into type the young woman
who was proof-reader in the Office OF
the magazine found something in it
which shocked her dreadfully. Mr..
Bret Harte was editor of the magaz inc
for which he wrote the story q am not
absolutely certain of the name, and as
this anecdote has, l believe, never
been published, l must not make a
mistake in an interesting bit of lit
erary history. He had just been ap-
pointed, and this was one of his earli-
est contributions. if not actually the
first. The proprietor and publisher of
the magazine was a long way from be-
ing a man of letters, but to him the
gentle proof-reader appealed. She
could not very we'll protest to the edit
or and author, so she went to the own
err and told him what a dreadful story
Mr.. Bret Harte had written; indeed, she
felt it impossible to retain her place if
so shocking a writer was going to keep
on with this sort of thing-dull, vul-
gar, stupid, and oh! so improper. The
proprietor read it, and, having no
opinion of his own, went to his editor
and told him how he had wounded the
modesty of the proof-reader; to which
Mr.. Bret Harte replied that he was
very sorry to wound any ones sensi-
bilities. but he really did not think
the story was wicked or immoral. If
it were an improper story, he added,
his inability to see it in that light
showed that he was unfit to
edit a magazine by reason of his
lack of PERCEPTION, and if he
stayed he must insist on publishing
the story. The proprietor did not
know whether to accept his resignation
Or not, but in the end the story was
published, even at the risk-with, in
deed, the certainty-of hurting the
feelings of the young woman who read
the proofs. The result amazed the
publisher very much inded. The
edition was snapped up at once, and
other editions, as fast as they could be
printed. Every one was talking of
The Luck of Roaring Camp" a reve-
lation in the art of story telling. APP
plications came from big publishers in
New York and elsewhere Offering any
terms Mr.. Bret Harte liked to name
for more stories like it. The publisher
found that in the editor whom he had
almost let slip through his fingers he
had a treasure; his magazine, from
barely paying its way, became fort
une, and he became to lose faith lit
tie in the taste and judgment of the
young woman who read the proofs.
