IN HEllCOlAND,


Queer Ways of the Natives of the Little
Island.
From the London Times.
1t must be noticed, however, that their
Sabbath begins at 8 p. IN. Saturday, when
the church bell is tolled,a ends on Sum
day mt the same hour. Formerly no ves-
sells could leave port between these hours.
Marriage cancels every b engage
ment. so there car be no breach OF prom
Use brought against a nan when once he
is married.
The inhabitants have a strange custom
on New Years eve. They then preambu-
late the streets with broken pots and pans
which they place before their friends
doors, and the man who has the largest
heap before his cottage Is considered the
most popular.
The people rarely lock their doors. but
when they do they leave the key where il
can be reached by any one seeking adj
mission.
The fisher-girls bait the hooks and carry
them in "a large wooden basket filed Will
sand TO the fishermen on the each. This
is by no means n light burden; yet they
may be seen cheerfully chatting with
their COMPANIONS as they march onward
with woollen shawls over their heads.
The streets pear English names, as Leo
pold, Berlin, Church, Augusta, Thames,
Short, O'Brien, Prince of Wales, Princess
street, etc.; but the natives have their
sxn names for them.
Heligoland has a small prison or lock-
up, but they rarely lock any II up, as
they do not care to board the prisoner.
There is also "A small cottage hospital
ready for use IL necessary, but patients
are few and far between. There is also a
poorhouse. Here poor people live rent
free. The plan adopted is for parents
and children to go before the magistrate,
when the former resign any little property
they may DO ssess to their children, who i'm
their turn promise to find them in food.
| When the husband dies the wife takes his
property, and at her decease il is equally
divided between the children.
There are no horses or donkeys on
Heligoland. for they would be useless
there, but there are eight cows and about
thirty sheep tethered and MIXED, the
| milk being considered superior to that of
cows. There are three policemen, the
junior being known by the extra amount
of gold lace worn by hin. The coast.
guard consists of five Englishmen, who
are not permitted to act as ~constables,
There are also sixteen active native coast
guards, and sixteen in the reserve. When
there is a wreck the whole island claims
the salvage. Most of the inhabitants are
behind with heir rates, but they are
never prosecuted, for when n settling
takes place after the season is yer what
remains is left in the hopes of being re-
covered next year. The debtors are en-
gagged to work on wrecks, and then ole
scores are wiped Off and he balance
are permitted to rent small potato patches
which are much valued, but the govern
ment reserve most of the land for theil
own purposes.

When sullivan and Muldoon Meet.

From the New York World.
Men who know Muldoon and Sullivan
are looking forward to their next meeting
with anticipations hardly second 10 those
with with which they waited for Sullivan's
great ring battles. They know that should
the champion fighter and his former
trainer meet I'm a bar room, which is most
likely. the chances are quite as much in
favor OF Muldoon getting the best Of the
encounter which would probably ensue as
they are in favor of the big bruiser knock
ing out his stalwart and active ex-friend.
Said one of the few men i'm New York who
is the peer of either of them as a wrcst-
Ter: II don want to be brought into
this thing, i have INV own affairs 10 at
tend to. but IL "A rough-and-tumble bar
room fight comes when Sullivan and Null
loon meet the wrestler will make n sad
sight of the bruiser. OF course. il Sulli-
van eau keep Muldoon AZ arms length
and gets a chance to hammer him with
his fists, lie will do him up easily. But
Muldoon is the better wrestler and, | be
lieve. the better rough-and.tumble fighter
of the two. He and Sullivan have often
wrestled when he was training sullivan.
At a rougl-and-tumble youth see Muldoon
the best man.

HOW HE GOT EVEN.
a Payment that Gave "a Young Man the
Advantage over u Teller.

From the New York Tribune.
The autocratic paying teller of a certain
Nassau street bank had an unpleasant
experience n day last week. A tall
young man with whiskers trimmed as
though they had been laid out by a land
scape gardener hurried up to the window
and presented a check for $3.50.
"Please let me have il in" he began.
"Mind you own business" snapped the
r~ed-headed autocrat within. IN give
you what is convenient"

vice, took the money handed him and
started away. In a moment he returned.
"You've made a mistake" he said mildly.

leaving the window" responded the pay
ing teller sharply.
"But you"
ave make no corrections move on"
"Oh, very WELL" said the tall young
man cheerfully, waving "A bill at the
grating, ~ was only going To tell you you
had given me fifty dollars too much, but
can stand it il you cam" he added as he
turned away.
The change that came over the red
headed teller was extraordinary.
"Hey there, hold on" he called.
Mind your own business. | shall suit
my own convenience"

growing more and more agitated. as he
hastily unlocked the window and thrust
out his head.

overpaid o man soothinCly, 1--WE

window"
"Oh don't mind that. come back here,''
pleaded the head from the window be
seechingly.
BY this time the dialogue was attracting
attention and the tall young man stepped
up to the teller and said sharply:
II have come to you again and again
with checks to be cashed for the firm, and
you are always grumpy, ungentlemanly
and disobliging. To-day you thought you
had underpaid me, and you were going to
let me suffer. Instead of that you gave
me $50 too much. and l nave got you just
where / want YOU. IL you will apologize
for your meanness and agree TO be pleas.

the $50 back, but under no other condi.

Those who listened did not hear what
the paying teller answered, but his meek
tone and the return of the $50 bill told O
sufficiently plain story.

All this stuff about the name "Rainier'
or Tacoma" for the big mountain near
Tacoma, when fairly considered, resolves
itself into the simple fact that those who
oppose the name Tacoma" do so simply
because the beautiful city of Tacoma re.
ceives an advertisement thereby-a mere
matter OF small envy. No one with his
reason properly adjusted can deny that il
is more appropriate TO name an American
mountain for the American city to which
it is c~learest visible rather than to name
it for a British lord long since dead who
never saw the mountain, but in whose
honor il was named by one of his toadies.
and that after it had been called "Ta.
coma" for ages by the aboriginal natives,
a name which was suggestive in their
~vernacular. The fact is that the city was
named for the mountain, not the noun
tain for the city. What are you jawing
about. anyhow ?-Edirharen Herald.
