DETERMINATION.

A theatrical man tells the follow.
ing story. He did not attempt e
vouch Tor Its truth, SO the writer
DOES not, merely giving 1t here fol-
what e IS worth rs an illustration
OF q woulan's will. The man who
told the story also disclosed the
names of those about whom it is re-
lated. but owing TO the doubt about
the absolute veracity Of the tale IL
would not be fair to mention the
names Suffice it to say that one
was Ar ACTOR and the other an ac-
tress, and both very well known to
the public. So cali the actor y
becaiise that is about as far as one
can get from his name, and the &C.
tress Miss A., because her name
Ia r.othing like that either.
Miss A, besides being perhaps
tn 9 most prominent character In the
pay, was also the stage manager,
sn. 1t was she who regulated Mr.
rs salary.
Now y lad long contended
that his salary vas not one-half
what 1t should be, and Miss A.
declared rs firmly that this was

would remain unchanged. This
condition Of affairs did not make

That determined ssneverv was q
disagreeable check to argument.
Finally y worked out q sub-plot

noble hero, carried Miss A. from q
top story to the ground down .

came on he stepped upon the frst
round OF the ladder as usual, holding
in his arms his fair burden. But
instead Of coming down quickly as
usual, as a vigorous, invincible
hero should, he stopped.

''raise my salary
"Never."
..Raise my salary or drop you"
Here was q crisis. Two things

Bee and Honey Statistics.

At the Rhode Isia nd experiment
station, where bees aud honey come
in for share OF attention, an inter
esting trial Of the in dustry of bees
was made last season by placing q
hive on the scales and frequently
recording its weight. Beginning
on June IL, on which date no gain
was made, the incr.ase fuctuated
from nothing to two and n quarter
pounds per day. During July the
greatest increase in any twenty -four
hours was two and three-quarters
pounds per day. ThH was q colony
Of fair strength, and the weighing
Was done between 4 and 5 n. m,
before the bees left the hive. There
were twenty days during which q
decided gain was noticed, six in
which no gain or loss took place and
eighteen days Of loss. The gain
was twenty-five and a quarter
pounds and the loss fifteen pounds,
leaving a balance Of seven and q
quarter pounds. A bulletin from
this same station places the values
Of the annual honey and wax pro-
duction the same as that Of the rice
and hop crop Of the country and but
little short of buckwheat. 1t ex-
ceeds maple syrup and sugar, and
also all the vegetable fibers except
cotton, and yed not over S to 10 pei
cent Of those favorably situated fol-
cultivating bees has kept them.

The Use Of a Toothpick.

ToothpIcks, of course, are positivel,
necessary, but can you tell WHY
some people supposed to be wei
bred are 80 utterly lost 70 decency
In the use Of them? II any one
stops long enough to consider he
must understand at once that to U.S.
toothplck under any circumstance.
Is more or less disgusting. II car
never be otherwise. While the use
Of them rs an adjunct to neatness !:
recognized, the toothplck should
never serve Its purpose publicly, oil
II II Is unavoidable II should be
used rs unosteutatiously ~ possible.
1t is bad enough to sec q man use
a toothpick indiscriminately and un.
reservedly, without regard for the
seisitiveness Of Others land please
don't think the act Is made elegant
and refined by raising the napkin
to the face to shield the mouth dur
ing the process. That Is worse yet,
and plainly says, 'T am picking
my teeth now"l, but 1t Is indefi.
nitely worse TO see . woman use one
publicly. I heard q gentleman say
not long ago that there was no
place in the country where women
used toothpicks rs publicly n In
Chicago. IL IL certainly to be
hoped that other cities are no worse.

The Dolls Carried the Day.

Sentiment II never allowed 70
stand In the way Of business among
the Dutch. The funeral Of the late
King had been appointed for q Ger.
tain day. 1t was not, In the or
binary sense, an ''early" day, bat u
was sooner after death than IL usual
In the case Of royal obsequies. The
fact was that the feast Of st. Nicho.
las, which falls on Dec. 9, was near
at hand. and as that IL . season Of
joy and gift-giving the trad, 5 people
did not want 1t clouded with the
symbols and trappings Of woe. So
the funeral was fixed for the 4th.
Now comes an urgent message from
the Gar, asking that It DO deferred
two days, that he might he suitably
represented. Immediately q depu.
tation Of dealers in toys and other
articles suitable as gifts waited upon

dolls carried the day against the

Parnell's Friyid Dignity.

II ever there was a man in the
world whose manner and appear.
ance suggested one who cared abso-
lutely nothing for the society OF
women 1t is Mr.. ParneIl, says Blake.
ley Hall in the Brooklyn Eagle.
Nothing has ever been known to
ruffie his icy and dignified exterior,
aud he has been rs impervious to
the assaults Of his own followers as
he has been to the malignant attacks
Of his enemies. / have seen him in
many trying situations, politically,
but 1 never detected the slightest
change In his manner Of frigid re-
serve.
One morning met him walking
along the Thames embankment with
some books under his arm at Z
O'Clock. His face was perfectly
pallid, and I was particularly inn
pressed by the careless manner in
which he was dressed. His tall and
almost gaunt figure was clad in gar
ments that had been taken haphaz-
ard from three suits Of clothes and
Que Of his gloves was ripped where
the thumb joined the hand. A street
gamin rolled from the top Of q cart
| Just as Mr.. Parnell came along and
| lay fiat on his back in front Of the
famous Irish leader, squalliDg dis
malIy. Mr.. Parnell stepped neither
to the right nor to the left. He
ceased walking, with his eyes fixei
as usual far, far ahead, and waited
f,r some one 10 move the child out
Of his way. The walt was q long
one. The little beggar continued to
scream Justify, sDd sffer a time rs
father dropped his whip aud stepping
| in irunt Of Mr.. Parn-II yankeu the
child aside and cuffed its ears
mechanically. Mr.. Parnell then
lowered his left leg to the ground
and proceeded on bis way. l never
saw an exhibition OF such Colossal
dignity before In my life.
He stands In the house OCCASION
ally, when delivering his ornate and
weli-copstrucied speeches, with o
mob of huwling dervishes att,ckiDg
him, but his looks always suggest
| the same air Of fsr-ofand absent
thought. His features are regular,
| his beard struggling and bis eyes
rather weak OF late. He holds his
head well back and acknowledges
salutations with hardly percel tible
nod. The spectacle Of n man OF Mr..
Parnelps dignity, austerity and
rigidly upright carriage sliuing out
Of wird avs at midnight, and uoipg
| the may other excited, hilarious
and thrilling things which he has
becn accused Oily Captain O'Shea,
seems grots sue aud impossible. II
b . pity that Parnell did not make .
defense and conduct II personally In

Canada and England.

The Canadian Senate will soon dis
cuss resolution offered on Tuesday ex-
pressing the opinions that the time has
arrived when Canada might be accorded
representation in the imperial Parlia-
ment by giving to the Dominion govern
ment, and To the government Of each
province q representative holding a
seat In the House Of Commons, the
representative of the Dominion also held
Ing seat in the Privy Council. This
resolution will be the signal for exciting
debate In the course of which the ad-
vantage and disadvantage Of imperial
connection may he freely compared with
The benefits that might arise from union
with the states. Canadians are push
Ing along 20 rapidly in their political
deas that the notion Of closer union
with Great Britain will not now be
handled with the patient respect that
would have been given To 1t q
couple Of years ago. II h
quite plain that no : such union
can be Arm. The Canadians, whether

II will be matter of much congratu-
lation to the people Of this town when
the building Of the Trust company IL no
fnr completed as to restore the sidewalk
Of the chief business street to Its ordi-
binary use. We do not think that IN
any other town such interruption OF the
use Of principal sidewalk would have
been permitted and II Is not creditablc
to any ofthe persons connected with this
enterprise that this imposition should
20 long have been practiced. The
structure has been on the way an uncon-
scionable time and the interest lost In
this way should of itself have been a
sufficient inducement to prolnpter work
to say nothing Of the demands OF the
public convenience. In other cities there
is sufficient regard for the public shown
by It's executive officers TO re-
quire the sidewalk to Ike kept
clear during the erection Of buildings in
busy streets. In Philadelphia the
largest structures are erected upon the
business streets with no interruption OF
travel and Is there any other town In
the country whose mayor would calmly
see the public put out into the street for
year or more to suit the convenience
Of building contractor?

The Revolt Against Reed.

It Is gratifying to see that the Re-
publican members of Congress are not
all ready to obey the lash Of the speaker,
hut that some of them have fairness
enough to accede to the reasonable de-
mand Of the minority party for time to
discuss the rules. In view of the close
ness with which the Republican men,
bers cling TO the speaker in his
arbitrary rulings, II Is surprising that
they now show such Independence. ltis
due doubtless to the fact that the self
respecting members feel the humiliation
they have endured in yielding 80 much
to the demand Of party unity as they
have done, and they were therefore in
good condition to revolt from any further
self abasement.
We hardly can hope that they will let
this righteousness carry them far enough
to accept amendments to the rules that
have been formulated by their party
committee but surely they must feel
IN urgent pressure from their con-
sciences to do so; and 1t may he
that when the vote is taken they will
be In good enough temper to vote rs
they think rather than as their party
leaders demand. The break which has
been made in the party following ought
TO bear fruit in the establishment of q
fair set of rules, which will be conf
promise of the diverse sentiment. Nc
doubt the count of the members present
~ part of the quorum will be insisted
upon, but 1t may he SO guarded as to de
prive the speaker of the power Of max
ing quorum when none is actually
present. 1t should not be impossible to
do this.
The time will come when the Repub.
lican party will he in minority and
II seems to be a foolish exercise of pres
ent power to establish such rules as
will be indeed oppressive of minority
No such generosity can he expected of
. Democratic majority, as that il will
refuse to avail itself of whir
that has been placed in their
hands by the minority when they
are In power. The chickens will come
home some day to roost. Certainly tn,
Republican leaders know this ant
their present course can only be inspired
by purpose to take care of themselve
now at the cost of those who may com,
after them.
