The practice of hazing seems to be
somewhat uncertain, as regards the
outcome, no matter whether the parties
engaged therein, be cadets at West
Point, or shingle weayers and staye
packers at Vesper.
Not long since there arrived in Vesper
two nice appearing young men hailing
from the village Of Minneapolis, MINI.
Their business being to solicit member
ships for the National American Build
ing and Loan Association. Now it
occurred to them that the denizens OF
the city of Hansen, might be induced
to subscribe for few shares of stock in
their concern, if only a little personal
effort was made SO after supper, il
being moonlight, they took a stroll
down the Wis. Pitts. & Sup. r, r. track
expecting to return at seasonable bed
time.
Some of the sports of this burg know
ing their places, conceived the idea,
that it would be lots of fun TO give the
city chaps a genuine scare. So they
proceeded to sew up a large black bear
skin preparatory to stuffIng. When
ready they proceeded down the rail
road track chattering away like SO many
school boys, and the Captain was heard
to exclaim: BY Jove wont them fel-
lows run like the Devil when they see
this thing coming for them. They
intending to give a Moonlight Exhibi-
ton by means Of long rope attached
to their pet bear. But alas, there is
many slip twixt the cup and the lip
The city Chaps didn't frighten worth d
cent but came boldly up to old Bruin
and invited one Of the hazers, who was
manipulating the rope, to come down
off his perch, then quietly remarked
well gentlemen, l guess this is a horse
on you.-Cigars are now in order. <

air was filed with a spicy ozone; we
could not in close communion with
natural surroundings the remainder OF
our journey, but feel grateful to Provi-
dence, that we survived to enjoy them.
That night we reached our destination
and as we approached our Division. the
music of a glee club foated on the air
singing:
Soldiers are We from the mountain and valley
Soldiers are We from the hill and the plain,
Under the flag your Fathers we rally,
Death for its sake is but living again.
Our hearts grew lighter, we were
safe with our friends once more.
The shifting scenes in the life of
soldier soon obliterated from my mem
ory the thoughts of that night l had
almost entirely forgotten them until
reminded by my comrade, Lon Marsh,
who is at present a ship builder at Bath
Maine, who will corroborate the fore
going statement

Change is one Of the irresistible laws
of nature, and fortunately the change is
almost invariably for the better As an
instance of this, St. Patrick's Pills are
fast taking the place of the old harsh
and violent cathartics, because they are
milder and produce pleasanter effect
besides they are much more beneficial
in removing morbid matter from the
system and preventing ague and other
malarious diseases. AS cathartic anC

ington could not import learned professors
to teach in the institution. The big iron
manufacturers and mine owners of Penn
sylvania have never found the law in the
way Of the importation, under contract, Of
'pauper laborsn whenever il was
necessary to reduce wages be-
low the amount necessary for an
American to support himself and family
decently, and educate his children. Some
how these big protected employers manage
TO evade the law; they have been so sue
cessful that there are populous communities
in the coal and iron district where it is said
the English language is rarely heard. So
also, the Pullman company will not find it
difficult 10 bring over all the men required
to man the sleepers.
In one respect the travelling public will
be glad of the change, if it will
put a stop to the fee nuisance;
but that nuisance is generally under
stood to be less the fault of the
officious yet accommodating colored porters
than of the company. The pay Of the por-
tiers is so small that the poor fellows are
compelled to 'skirmish'' for tips, in order
to live. A generous, sympathetic public
not only pays the company but contributes
TO pay the wages which the blacks must
have. If fair wages were paid the fee evil
could be suppressed without going abroad
for porters

IMPORTING P0RTERS.

II has leaked out that agents Of the PULL-
MAN palace car company are now in Europe
employing men to come TO this country to
serve as sleeping-ca porters. The colored
men are to be bounced because they have
grown too oficious and because they cult
vate the ''tip'' business too industriously.
II is further related that the foreigners
sign contract to work five years at certain
low wages, and agree to accept no fees.
The wages to be paid are somewhat higher
than those allowed the colored porters, but
are not high enough for even a respectable
negro in this country.
There is law against this kind of immi-
grafton, and it has been applied in the case
of New York church which brought over
an English preacher, and last week the
solicitor of the treasury department de-

A GOOD LAW.

The late legislature Of Illinois must have
been made up largely of grangers; at any
rate il contained fewer rich men than are
usually found in western law-mal1ing
bodies. One Of the excellent laws enacted
Just before the close Of the session was
statute for prohibiting mortgages on grow
ing crops and requiring that chattel liens of
all kinds shall be foreclosed in open court
after due notice given. A great abuse has
grown up in that and other western states.
where money lenders have had their
own way, making their own terms
with borrowers and executing their
writs without publicity. Thus,
u creditor could close in on his debtor, sell
ling the letter ont and pocketing the pro
ceeds without the usurious methods com
ing to the surface. Mortgages were taken
on growing crops, the interest being
exorbitant. and the poor farmer after
working hard all summer, would wake up
some morning to find that the product of
his land had been sold to pay his notes. the
price being less than he could have Oh
tanned if little time had been given him.
In some instances. creditors have taken
furniture from houses ana disposed Of il
for less than half its value Publicity
being given to their methods the sharks
will be less cruel.
Legislation in the interest of the poor
and the debtor classes is more rare than 1t
should be in this country where the rich
are presumed 10 stand 70 higher before the
law than the common labore2. OF course
the poor are III q sense responsible for this
condition of things; they are the voters and
hayeit in their power to send TO the legis-
latures men VINO viii not bow before
money. But the fact that the poor do not !
change things in their own behalf does not
alter the other fact that the evil exists.

SWEET CHARITY"

The narrowing tales of sorrow and suffer
iug continue to arrive from the valley of
death in Pennsylvania. The stricken PEG
pie, recovering from the shock Of the
calamity which was so awful as TO daze
them for a time, are finding themselves cold
ard hungry and in a most pitiful condition
Phey have been gazing at the picture Of
desolation which presents itself where only
a few days ago was a scene which most de
lights human eyes-a charming valley
dotted with pretty villages and
happy homes and teeming with
thrifty people in the enjoyment o.
heavens blessings. The awful picture
has brought them to a consideration of
themselves and they know that for
long weeks they viii be unable to provide
for their wants. Their all having been
swept away, they are, in spite of they can do,
objects of charity. They must look 10 their
fellows for care, comfort and support, and
place their trust in the sentiment Of hui
mainly. They will not trust in vain. The
civilized world is thinking of them, and
men and women everywhere are sending
substantial evidences of their sl mpathy for
the afflicted and the suffering
The hearts of our people are going out to
the distressed community in the distant
state Already many have given some
thing-little on much as they were able TO
contradiction The relief Of the sufferers.
This evening there is to be a grand popular
concert for the benefit Of the food victims,
when those who have not vet given viii
have an opportunity TO swell the relief
fund It should be borne in mind that all
she money taken for tickets will 90 directly
10 the sufferers. There are no expenses 10
be met, no costs 70 be paid, no other aven-
bes than the one defined By pure charity
through which the proceeds pass. The most
generous, the most benevolent spirit
has marked the movement from its incep-
tion, all being inspired with il. Now let
the public be as generous, as charitable. as
noble Let the people maintain their repu-
tation for tho possession of spirit of
broad humanity, for sweet charity, for
warm sympathy. Let them see TO it that
the ten thousand tickets of admission to
she concert represent so many dollars and
half-doIlars Let everyone feel that he has
done something in the cause Of suffering
humanity, that he has given something
which will tend TO sooth the sorrows and
soften the grief Of some victims of the
most terrible calamity that has ever be
fallen a Christian people.
