IT appears that the damage to the
City of Rome by striking Fastnet Rock
last Sunday morning was very serious.
The steamship had a narrow escape
from going to the bottom Of the ocean
with all on board. In the extent and
character of injuries to the hull OF the
steamer the accident has much SINH
larity to the case of the City of Paris a
few weeks ago. In both instances grave
disaster was escaped by the superior
modern equipment of the vessel and the
admirable management of their officers.
But even these excellent qualities may
not always be guarantee against adj
verse fate, if the passion for ocean rae
ing is not restrained.

Dignity Costs Money.

Tom O'Neil believes that dignity
should govern everything III connection
with the mayors Office, and he is bound
to see the idea carried out no matter
what it costs. That it does cost money
Tom found out few days ago when
tramp came in and inquired for the
s.AssJ OAAA isA.SNs sAAess 90 iAOV
when will he be in?" next asked the
tramp. II can't tell you" said Tom,
"but represent him; what can do for
your "Well, you are just as coed, " said
the man. 81 want ten cents to Get some
coffee and bread with; l am hungry"
Tom felt that here was chance to srs-
tain the dignity Of his own and his su-
perior's position, and, besides, he felt
rather pleased at the remark of the tramp
that he was ''just as good"
He therefore took the man out to a
restaurant, and, not to appear stingy, he
handed him bill Of fare and told him
to order what he wanted, thinking he
might get stuck for fifteen cents, or per-
haps twenty. He sat down at a table and
began looking over a newspaper while
his guest ordered. Presently the dishes
came, and few minutes later the waiter
brought Tom check; it was for sixty
five cents. Rather amused at the mans
nerve he went over to ask him if he
wanted anything more, and with perfect
GOODNESS Mr. Man said mo" and be-
ieved he had all he wanted. Tom went
to the cashier and paid the check, and as
he was leaving his guest shouted out to
him: "I1l see you again" "All right,
answered Tom, but outside he vowed
the man would not see him again if he
could see the man first

THE TAN YARD MURDER.
How Lafcadio Hearn made his First
Strike.

New YORK, May 81 believe The
Tan Yard Murder was Lafcadio Hearn's
first assignment as reporter on The Gin
cinnati Enquirer. The crime was COM
nlitted one Saturday night in the latter
part of October, 1874, but was not discov-
cred until the next day. Andrew Egner,
his son and an accomplish, all employees
of tan yard, killed fellow workman
most brutally, using pitchfork as the
weapon of partial slaughter. They then
carried the body, with the breath of life
not yet extinct, and threw it into one of
the furnaces. There it was discovered
next morning half consumed by the heat.
The Enquirer's force of reporters at
that time was small, and Mr.. Hearn, who
happened to call, was asked by Mr.. Cock
erell to do the descriptive part. Mr. j. B.
Mccormick, now the business agent of
w. III. Crane, the actor, was Mr.. Hearn's
co-worker in that reportorial sensation,
for it made a sensation peculiarly above
and beyond what the usual newspaper
accounts of murders create. Mr., Hearn's
pow ers of picturing the horrible had
fertile field in that murder. He went to
the scene of the tragedy, and not only
used his sense of sight, feeble as it was,
to an advantage which other reporters of
perfect vision did not accept, but he
brought to. bear upon the case in hand
his sense of smell and touch.
To see the horrors of the case he was
compelled 10 stoop close over the charred
remains, and, as a consequence, he could
not help using his olfactories. And yet
he went further. do not believe Mr..
Hearn ever approached an object close
enough to see it that he did not favor it
with his caressing touch. The tan yard
victim was no exception. Mr.. Hearn
saw it, smelled it, touched it. Yea, he
nut finger into the eyeless socket of
the half consumed head, pretty much as
he had q habit of thrusting his index
digit TIN ough the button hole of your
coat.
Then he went back to the office, sat
down to desk, or rather lay down on
one-for he never sat upright while pre-
pairing manuscript-and when his task
was done he had accomplished literary
horror. No man of this generation ex-
cent Lafcadio Hearn could have drawn
such a shuddering word painting OF
| what he saw, had smelled and handled
in the victim of "The Tan Yard Murder"

reporter for The Enquirer. began work

the ivory skinned, beryl eyed, yellow
haired little mistress. She sits in a spa

white fur rug, a capital background for
the graceful woman whose gown Of soft,
green Indian silk harmonizes beauti-
fully with her picturesque personality
and surroundings. The great desk

proofs of Mrs Athertons novel which
the Lovells are bringing out. 1t

of which is laid in California, on ranch.

Rules for Care of the Brain.

First, systematic exercise and regular
employment The brain stands most
abuse of any organ in the body. Its best
tonic and stimulant is success. The
worst and most depressing thing to it is
failure. The most injurious effects come
by using stimulants in early life; young
people should use no liquor, tea or any
thing Of this sort. They act mostly on
the brain and injure its growth very ma
terially. Abundance Of sleep is neces-
sary. am inclined to think eight hours
is not more than enough. Sleep is the
time of relatively lowered expenditure
and increased repair. Learn to think
straight and allow no morbid fancies to
remain in your mind. They soon get an
obstinate foothold and are hard to re-
move and may make your whole life I'M
happy.
