Oscar Wilde and Joe.

Iasked Pryor about the buncoing of
Oscar Wilde by Hungry Joe. Said he:
81 saw Wilde give Joe the check over
at the Brunswick, but Joe got away be-
fore could interfere. I came at once
to the Second National bank and told the
cashier not to pay Wilde's check if pre-
sented, but send for me. It wasn't
twenty minutes until was sent for, and
there was Hungry Joe himself with the
check. OF course he gave up. Inspector
Byrnes took all the credit of the affair
nevertheless, and I never got any credit
in the matter at all. Hungry Joe got
$4,000 in cash and checks out of the
president of large bank in Montreal,
who was q guest at the Fifth Avenue
hotel, but when told him the banker
was our guest Joe gave up like a little
man. He came pretty near getting $3.50
out of Gen. John A. Logan once. The
general was in one of the rooms on the
ground floor ON the Twenty-third street
side of the house, where the ladies' en-
trance is located.

that the general had gone into his room
accompanied by a bunco man. went
around and knocked at the door. Hun
cry Joe was just going away, but I
barred the door and asked the general if
he had given the fellow any money. The
general was inclined to get nettled at
my question, and blurted out that the
young man was the son of the president
Of the bank in Chicago where the gen.
erals account was kept. I said: why,
general, the man is a thief, common
thief He would scarcely believe me.
But presently Hungry Joe took $50 out
of his pocket, which he got from Logan,
handing it back said I was 'on to him
and the general might as well have his
eyes opened The general had given
him $50 and was going to give him 500
the next day. This story of Logan has
never been told before. Cincinnati En-

the boat must now be drifting very
fast, and probably we had not made
allowance enough for the wind.
Throwing ourselves upon our backs,
we rested awhile to gain strength for
further effort; but such effort must
now ne feeble at the best. The dash
of the waves confused us; and as to
the stars. we had by this time got
them sadly mixed.
Suddenly Tom Topped over upon his
breast and uttered some kind of an
exclamation.

No; but l see something else.

Close upon us rose the canvass of q
square rigger, towering through the
darkness like great tree.
We shouted as loud as possible;
and soon 'creak, creak' went her
mainyard as it swung around till the
sail was laid to The mast.
A boat was sent for us, and we
were taken up almost speechless.
What was my surprise to recognize in
the crew of the yawl the second mate
and two of the hands of the brig
Amelia, the very craft from which |
had been impressed.
They took US on board the vessel,
and had We descended there from the
sky her good captain and his men
could hardly have been more aston
ished at our appearance. The Amelia,
they told US, had left Barbodoes i'm
medistely after ourselves. and had not
at any time been entirely becalmed
But that she should happen TO come
jogging along just in the nick of time
to save US seemed a surprising thing
indeed.
We arrived home after short pas
sage, seeing nothing more of the old
Poictiers, and whether or not her com
mander ever knew what had become
of ls is more than l can tell. But
am sure of this, that drifting boa

to swim for.-Geo. H. Coomer, in the

what were we to do for provisions and
water in the event of reaching her?
But we believed the stake to be
worth the risk, and our resolution was
fixed. We we're only afraid that the
ship would gets breeze before dark.
The boat was about three -fourths of
mile off, and as twilight gathered
we saw that she ranged exactly under
certain large star which it would be
easy to distinguish from all others.
AS the evening advanced, a light
breeze begun to fill the sails till the
ship gathered steerageway. There
was now not a moment to lose; and,
dropping silently under the bow, we
struck out for the boat. I have since
thought that this was a prodigious
thing to do, there In the midst Of the
Atlantic ocean. The picture we made
as we dropped from the bow of that
big ship has often recurred to me.
More and more the wind breezed
up, so that we we're obliged to allow
something for the drift Of the boat,
for we could not see her. She must
have moved little to one side of the
star-and suppose we should miss her
altogether, we thought
At length il seemed to US that we
must have swum more than mile.

lize the fearful position in which we
had placed ourselves Could we have
passed the object of our search? The
breeze increased rapidly, and the

ACCORDING to Prentice Milford, man
should live to the age Of one hundred
and twenty wears; at which period OF
life he would doubtless know good
deal more than the average citizen Of
seventy. When he prepares for the
next world and casts one lingering
look backward, thinning that with
what he knows he ought TO have a
longer stay. Mr.. milford declares that
the ancients understood the secrets OF
longevity, and he quotes certain pas
saj, es Of tie Bible to show it.
But the truth is that there are proofs
nearer a. home in the cases of the In
dams Of New Mexico, who, in pure
dry atmosphere. often lived to nearly a
century and a half. The authorities
for this are the accounts Of the United
States officers who campaigned in that
region. At Albuquerque it IS said
that there are numbers of tOmbstOnes
Of Mexicans inscribed with words of
commentator for as many as a humid
re d and twenty years Of pious life.
One point about all this is that the
mechanical world is in such q rush we
would have IN old age to learn and
unlearn too much if We could span the
entire century.

MCKINLRY's booming words to the
effect that Our black allies must be
protected, &C., - are played up 10 the
concert pitch Of the Radical policy.
Nobody has wronged the darby, but he
must be represented as wrongsd in
order that the G.. 0. p. may count him
up and multiply his vote.
Anent that plan the World remarks
that ANY denial Of the rights Of
citizenship based upon color or race or
religion is fundamentally unrepublican
and flagrantly unjust. But the Repub-
lican conclusion that such denial is
generally made at the South in respect
to cOloIed citizens is not warranted by
its premise. Because the Republican
vote does not equal the census Of black
male citizens Of voting age, plus the
whites who would profit by Republican
supremacy"
All this tends to prove what we say
that the census and not the election is
to make the basis of choosing repre-
sentatiyes and electors in the South if
the Radicals are allowed in the House
to work their will.

From tie New \ mk SUM-
In December, 1857, half a million Of
people were destroyed by the over
flowing of the Yellow river in China,
and whole district of the Empire was
laid waste. 1t was q calamity which
seemed to us to be possible only i'm a
country that had not reached the high
development of civilization prevailing
here. Yet if the region de-
wasted by the COnemaugh flood last
week had been as densely populated
as the Chinese province of HOnan, the
loss of life might have been as great.
If ,JohnstOwn had been a community as
numerous as many communities IN that
fertile Chinese district, the multitude
of those who persisted would have been
increased by tens of thousands. For
the torrent was irresistible, and the
loss of life would have been
measured by the number Of peo-
ple dwelling along its course.
We see, therefore. that even Western
civilization aud Western engineering
have proved no more capable than the
Orienta, to stay, and control the forces
of nature in such an emergency. 10 Is
not possible to determine yet whether
any fault in the construction of the
North Fork dam, or any carelessness in
its maintenance. contributed TO bring
about the awful catastrophy; but the
damage wrought by the spring freshets
of last week in many parts of the coun-
try suggests reasonable doubt whether
blame can justly be laid on the shout
derso of the engineers and the custodians
of the structure.
