You have to get acquainted with the old
man himself to get any idea of it. That
Is not hard matter, for he has got
patent on that queer shaped handle, and
inventors usually talk at dog trot. Col
Sellers Investments are trifles compared
with what our old friend Of the umbrel-
la expects to result from his discovery.
Asking him to explain it, he said:
This is what we might call an auto
graph handle. You see, it fits my hand
perfectly. Thumb, palm, joints all are
precisely anticipated in its form. Now,
if you take hold of it you will see that
it will not fit your hand at all.
Inc experiment was tried with just
the result the old gentleman predicted.
1t felt like wearing a coat two sizes too
big or putting No. hat on a No. 6
head.
is a prime fact resumed the en-
thusiastic old inventor, that no two
people in all the hundreds Of millions on
the foot-stool have hands alike. The.
police OF Paris many years ago seized
on the great fact, and made use of it in
describing criminals. Every man who
falls into their clutches is compelled to
make an impression of his right thumb
in plaster, and this imprint is preserved,
with a description of his hair, eyes, per-
son. and various pecul iarities.
Now, / have discovered an -applica-
ton of this difference in hands to a great
practical need. There are 500, 900 um-
brellas stolen every year. The United
States imports 100000 every year, and
as many more are made in this country.
Any thing that will save your umbrella
from thieves certainly ought to be well
come. philadelphia Press.

where about the palace. The animal at
once became creature of distinguished
consideration in the royal household.
In answer to the name of Perico. The
ribbon upon its neck was tied there by
the KING himself, and when he was
taken sick the King insisted that pussy
should be in the room with him. So,
for full month the faithful cat was
constantly in the sick chamber. Natur-

Is Your Cigar Imported.

The desire of the average man to
smoke genuine imported cigar, said
an internal revenue officer to N. Y.
World reporter, is a constant incen-
tive to dealers to misrepresent their
goods. One of the most common de-
vices is to place label on box
closely resembling the imported
stamp. 1t is of the same size and col
or, and would deceive any one who
did not examine it carefully. These
imitation stamps are made in differ
ent designs. Many contain the state
ment that the cigars in the box are
manufactured from the finest import
ed Havana tobacco-the word elm
ported" standing out in large letters,
while the rest is in small type. The
unsuspecting purchaser sees the word
imported" and takes it forgranted
that he is getting the imported arti-
Gle. We have captured thousands of
these fake stamps in this city within
the year last past.

A tail, spare old gentleman has been
seen during the last few stormy days in
the gallery of the house and strolling up
and down the corridors always carving
an umbrella no matter whether Gen.
Greedy weather was fair or foul. Save
that his hair and side -whiskers were
snowy white he looks very much like
the Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage. His UNI
brella is. however, more noticeable and
noteworthy than himself. As he swings
it idly in his long, bony hand or leans
upon it while sitting in the gallery look
ing down on the frenzied scene below,
it attracts attention.
It is Of silver, but its shape is its pc
culiarity. That is, it is neither round
nor square, convex nor concave-not
like pear, prism, pillar, or pot-hooks.
All there is of it is this: If any man
wishes TO try my umbrella handle take
an impression in any kind of plaster or
wax-the latter is better. That impress
sion is electroplated and the electroplate
shell of copper or silver is filled with
lead or some lighter composition and
fastened on your umbrella The whole
thing can be done in copper for ST.
Gold or silver costs more, according to
the amount of metal it takes I can
also take the head in wax of your favor
tie dog or cat, or your wife, canary en-
tire, and then reproduce the impression
in metal. They make novel umbrella
handles. This handle can be ornament
cd as much as YOU please"
Here the old gentleman took from
capacious overcoat pocket package
rolled up in many folds of soft tissue
paper. Unrolling it as gently and aw--
fully as if it were the Kohinoor he dis
ed by lion couchant.
This" said he, holding it up admir-
ingly, is one made for Mr. Blaine.
That is his prehensile autoform, so to
speak. You can look at this and imag-
inc how the helm of state feels when he
has his grip on it. Now, here is another
eagle. That is q beautiful piece Of
work. These conchordal shaped i'm
prints of palm and figures are not so
large or decided as those made by Mr..
Blaine. Do you think so? will vouch
for their accuracy There can be no
mistake about them. Here is Jean
jacques ingalls, fine Italian hand, as
one of his critics might say. I put
greyhound's herd on it. The greyhound
is our most intellectual dog.
i have used the handle on other
things. Here are photographs of ham
mer, the superb gavel I have made for
Speaker Reed, and a cleaver I am gong
to give Assistant Postmaster General
Clarkson, who is the champion heads
man Of this administration. You see
am mixing little fun in with nv bust
ness. That's all right, isn't it? Eh2''
With this the old man wrapped up his
darling auto Names" slowed them soft
" IN his pocket, gave the umbrella an
admlrlng glance, and trudged up out of
the gallery as fast and as gracefully as
his rheumatism would allow.

Another story from the sick room,
and one that has more of the flavor usu-
ally found in stories of royal infants,
George Washington and other lofty per-
sonages. Itdeals with little crippled girl
whom the King met on one of his walks
or rides about with his nurse before he
was taken sick, and to whom, seeing
often again, he had taken a fancy. It
came to be that whenever the King in
his outings saw the little cripple he
would make one of the ladies of honor
descend from the carriage and carry
some little gift to her. When he had
been sick for while he said to his
mother one day:
What will become of my little cripple
and what will she eat, now that 90 out
no more?"
Bread" said the Queen, 'like all
the poor people; that is, if she can get
it."
Il am too little to command" said
the King. a
las it is to do good" replied the
Queen, 81 will permit you to give or
ders.''
The King, at this, said nothing, but
the next day he had taken to the little
beggar the bonbons some one had sent
to himself
No affidavit goes with this story, but
it is very pretty one, and there is no
particular reason why it should not be
true.

THE BOY.
He Is Being Crowded Almost Entirely Out
of Employment.

What is to become Of the boy if the
present tendency to crowd him out of
employment goes on? asks the N. 7.
Tribune. Messengers with boards
seem to be growing more numerous all
the time, and the elevator boy has been
largely replaced by the elevator man.
Cash boys once common in the city,
have given way to cash girls to a great
extent. The uniformed, brass-buttoned
call-boys at the hotels are little more
than a memory, and in their places are
men. It is true there are still news
boys about the entrance to the bridge,
and other places where there are gen
orally crowds of people, but news
women and neWsmen are competing
with them in ever-increasing numbers.
Uptown the newsdealer has virtually
driven the boys out Of the business.
With bootblacks the story is the same
A few Of them still pursue their calling,
but grown Italians have seized hold of
the best corners, and with their big
armchairs easily take away the bust
ness of their youthful rivals, whose Gus
toners have to balance themselves on
one leg against sharp corner of the
building. There are few boy ped
oilers Of shoestrings and handkerchiefs,
but this occupation is far more appro-
pirate to those who have arrived at
years when an amble is the natural
gait. On trains there are still many
lads who go about distributing illus
trated papers, light novels and candy,
and then go about again collecting
them, incidentally selling few of the
articles, but even here the men are get
ting ahead of them. Yes, what shall be-
come Of the boy is a serious question.
lf the present movement toward his
continues the only thing
left for him to do will be to grow up
and become a man, but unfortunately
this takes time. IN. =. Tribune.

With the TongS.

Agreat deal oflaughter has been ex-
pended on womankind for taking the
broom as a weapon in "shooing'' an
enemy, but, after all, why should not
one use the implementto which she is
most accustomed? Great ution is
possible with the weapon Of our choice,
as an English lady, living in Canada,
has proved.
She was one day greatly interested
IN putting out the family washing to
dry. Sheets and tablecloths we're on
the line, which, to her horror, sud-
denly fell, dropping her spotless
clothes in the dirt.
A large buck, caughtby the antlers,
was the cause of the trouble. There
was not a man within five miles
they had all gone to " neighbours for
the day. The deer plunged about,
and the lady screamed. Something
had to be done, and done at once.
There was q fine gun in the house,
loaded, but the lady would not APP
proach it as firearms were her espe-
cial dread.
Among her many possessions she
had Il large pair OF tongs. She
thoroughly understood this frearm,
and with all herhousewife]y instincts
outraged, she seized them and began
the attack.
Within five minutes the bnck's
skull was pounded to jelly, and then

From the Rochester Herald
Why should not railroad compan-
les be induced or compelled to make

coaches as stout and as capable of
resisting, a crushing force as are the
frames Of the sleeping cars? Itmight.
add a trife to their weight, perhaps,

woodwork not being required, they
would still be light compared
with the sleepers. The latter have
beenincreassd in weight to forty tons,
Whilea day-coach weighs about eight

the railroad companies tostrengthen
common coaches by either increase
ing or removing altogether the stat
utory limit of damages for accident

absurd law that says that a railroad
company may kill a person and not

The bitter attacks made upon the
Mckinley bill do not appear to have
had any marked effect upon the coun-
try. The European powers have
simmered down and are now calculat-
ing the effects of that tariff measure
upon their own industries and how
they can best meet the situation.
There are none of them that do not
consider the measure good one for
American Industries, and as Amer
lean and not foreign interests were
the ones to be considered. 1t would
seem as though the bill had not fail
ed of it's Intentions, its European
critics being its judges. aE.
