An Honest Man,

At one Of DIR. John NJ. Wieting's lee.
lures in Boston he saw in the audience
a tall. lank, awkward looking man.
who soon after turned up at a lecture
in Philadelphia, made himself known
to DIR. Wieting, and requested n loan of
81, 900 with which to go TO California
it was in the gold fever times-agrceing
TO send the doctor half his earnings.
The doctor consented. After q while
came 81, 900 back, and then in differ
ent installmcnts 50. 900 more, where
upon the doctor cried; "IIoldw but the
stranger wrote that he did not propose
to break his bond.
Soon. however, he wrote requesting a
fresh loan Of $50. 900. The doctors
friends protected that the 80, 900 was
only a decoy. and TINT If the doctor
sent the $50. 900 he would never hear of
IL again. Nevertheless, he sent the
money. and there wrs M awful pause;
but after n time the returns began, and
finally mounted up to $4,000, after
which the honest man was never heard

Infectious Patriotism.

The system Of indicating the begin.
ming and close of school sessions by
hoisting and lowering the American
flag, which was instituted in this city
by Professor Franklin, has spurred a
number Of Orange street urchins on TO
imitation. Not long ago a yOungster
living on that thoroughfare went out
into the back yard early one morning
armed with "A spade and a long pole.
With the former he dug n hole in the
ground. in which he placed the latter.
and firmly fixed il there. Then he
rugged n sort Of rope and pulley to the
pole and hoistel a sort of "A kind Of
an Ame<ican flag. This he lowered
every evening aud hoisted every morn
ing with great regularity and much evil
dent satisfaction. The small boy who
lives next door soon looked over the
fence and saw what his youthful neigh.
Dor had been doing; and forthwith he
became seized with q desire TO do like
wise. lie did likewise. and very soon
two flags j IN adjoining yards were hoisted
and lowered with great regularity every
day. Then other boys who lived there
abouts saw the flags. and now there are
at least eight Or nine alleged American
flags iluttering from as many poles in
rs many back yards. All are hoisted
in the morning and lowered ut evening.

Gandy Color, in NehIcIcs.

II you are in the vicinity of Michigan
boulevard you will not fail 10 notice the
tendency TO paint vehicles in gaudy
colors. The rigs which stand about
the Auditorium are particularly flashy,
the shade being a bright yellow. This
shade also predominates in light run
ming carts on the road. There is moth
ing attractive about these conveyances,
and an old manufacturer said. as he
looked at them, that Inc didn't under
stand why it was that some people in
this country always wanted to travel in
