An Enterprising Landlord.

There is proof that a really great man
rises superior 10 the limitations of circum.
stances in the incident recently related of
the New Hampshire landlord who made a
requision on this city Tor six young men
To proceed 10 the mountains, and there,
says the Providence Journal, arrayed in

v%entional evening dress at night. assist in
entertaining the guests of the hotel. pre-
sumably the maiden element for the most
part, living ON the fat of the land, mean.
while, gratis. The increasing scarcity Of
young men at our summer hotels has
proven more deleterious To profit than
even a combination Of cold weather and
high prices, and Il was inevitable that
something radical hould be undertaken.
The New Hampshire man mentioned Is
evidently abreast of the tunes.

BOWlNG TO GENIUS

Not To be outdone by Sullivan. who
has gone upon the stage, Peter Jack
son has taken to literature and is reel.
ing OF European letters for a syndi-
cate of American papers by the yard.
AS convincing proof that the letters
are written by no other than Jackson
himself, a fac simile of the pugilist's
signature is printed ut the bottom of
each communication. Mr.. Jackson's
signature may not he u marvel of
calligraphy. but in this respect he is not
unlike very many other great men
whose signatures resemble the effects
produced by a sudden eNpectoration of
tobacco Juice from some little distance.
but what Mr.. Jackson lacks in
p~enmanship he makes up in literary
style. Let II not be supposed that Mr..
Jackson would impose on the public
by hiring a professional journalist TO
write his letters for him. lie may. il
is true. employ an amanuensis 10 per.
form the manual labor required on the
manuscript, but most authors of celeb
rity do that, and do il with perfect pro-
priety. Mr.. Jackson's amanuensis APP
pears 10 be a gentleman of considerable
ability, for he is doing his work to the
satisfaction of all concerned.
The letters reveal the colored pugilist
in a new and very favorable light.
Heretofore he has hid his social quail
ties under a busheL Perhaps he did
not think IL worth his while TO blossom
forth as a polished gentleman and ac-
complished man of the world in this
country. When he reached England
and came In contact with the nobility
he threw OFF his reserve and became a
second Chesterfield. The nobility were
fascinated by his address. OF Lord
Lonsdale he writes: she constituted
himself my guardian from the day I
arrived in London, and showed me
