KING OF TIE BEGGARS.

BampfyIde Moore Carew, Famous In the
 Reign of George I
 A rare old volume to be found in a few English libraries, says Pen and Pencil. contains the history of the once famous Bampfylde Moore Carew, known in England during the reign of George I. as the king of the beggars. Carew be- longed to one of the oldest and most honorable families in England. His fla ther was clergyman and his grand father was an earl
 He passed through Eton with distinc- ton, and entered Oxford. In his twen- tieth year he left college and joined a gang of gypsies, with whom he re- mained until his death, forty years later. The entreaties of his family and the ridicule of his friends had no effect upon him.
 At his fathers death he inherited a large estate, which he refused to claim, continuing to live in tents, wandering through Europe often in dire want and squalor. He supported himself in beg gary, in which profession he showed such remarkable ability as to be every where known as the king of the mendi- cants.
 His disguises and limitations of suffer ing were endless. Carew, 1t is said, was man of great ability and winning manners, hence, when he came in con- tact with men of his own class, they acknowledged him as still their equal. His cousin, Lord Seaton, once laid a wager with him that he could not de- ceive him as a beggar.
 Carew approached him an hour later as decrepit old soldier, and received a pound; and the next day as a widow with babe in her arms induced him to give him three guineas. He undertook a voyage to America ito see what could be made out of the Qual1ers," and made a begging tour among the Puritans of New England, the Dutch in New York and the Cavaliers in Vir- ginia.
 He travelled thousands of miles on foot, actually begging from the sav- ages as he went. He returned triumph ing In his petty gains, strings of wam- pun and furs. All this time a manor house and settled income waited his ac. ceptance. Carew was neither drunken nor vicious. He was possessed by a spirit of adventure which made the tame, decorous life of an English squire intolerable to him.

HIS LITTLE JOKE FAILED.
One Learned Doctor Is Outwitted by thu
 Shrewdness of Another.

One Learned Doctor Is Outwitted by the
 Shrewdness of Another.
 An excellent story Is told in the Lon don Tid Bits of the late Prof. Rogers and Dr. R. Dale, of Birmingham. These two gentlemen were giving series of lectures In Lancashire, and at every town he visited Dr. Dale noticed that his colleague, who always spoke first, made the same speech. In fact, so often did the professor give that speech that the worthy doctor knew 1t all by heart an .his led the latter to think of a way of taking the wind outof his friends s sails.
 On their arrival at town in south Lancashire Dr. Dale asked Dr. Rogers to allow him to speak first, an arrange ment to which the latter readily agreed, so Dr. Dale rose and proceeded to de, liver the speech of Dr-~Rogers, looking every now and then with the corner of his eye to see how that worthy gentle man was taking this practical joke. Dr. Rogers sat calm and composed, and when at length his turn came to speak, he just as calmly rose and de livered, to Dr. Dale's utter astonish- ment, a new speech.
 At the conclusion of the meeting Dr. Dale said to his colleague: ''I thought had taken the wind out of your sails tonight" Dr. Rogers replied: "Oh, no; I de. livered that speech when was here q month ago."

He Tells President Carnot that He is De-
 lighted With the French Fleet.
 PARIS, July 30.-The newspapers aro teeming with praise of the Czar and his generous hospitality to the French off 6cers now visiting St. Petersburg. The following Is the text of the telegram which was sent from the banquet held at the Peterhof Palace by tue Czar to President Carnot "The presence in my harbor of Cronstadt of a French fleet is fresh testimony to the profound gym pathy uniting Franco and Russia. ] have at heart, and express to you, my warm satisfaction on this account"
 Berlin dispatch to Le Petit Journal says that the enthusiastic reception of the French fleet at Cronstadt is almost the sole topic of discussion in that city, and the occasion is viewed with serious ness very different from the ridicule which used to be heaped on the efforts of France to win the goodwill of Russia. The decidedly warlike aspect of every thing connected with the affair has aroused no little anxiety, it Is stated, in the highest quarters.

WORkMEN IN AN ACCIDENT.
Big NIill i'm Course of Erection ColIapses at Pittsburg.

A Big Mill i'm Course of Erection Collapses
 at Pittsburg.
 P1TTsBURa, July 30.-The new pudding mill of the Pittsburg Oil We'll Supply Company, on Second avenue, collapsed during the morning, killing B. Corkin and an unknown Hungarian laborer and seriously injuring J. Parker, Geo. Baker, George Lemon, F. Schmidt and J. Cobra. Several other workmeu were painfully injured.
 Forty-two men were working at the time of the accident. About thirty em- ployes of the Elba Iron Mills were stand ing below watching the progress of the work.
 Without any warning the massive structure came down with frightful crash, carrying with it several furnace stacks, heavy iron stringers and braces. A falling beam snapped 8 large steam pipe, and in less than second 8 tremen- dous volume of steam was pouring out upon the men imprisoned in the wreck.
 The workmen in the mills rushed to the rescue of their companions. When the steam was shut off the dead and in- jured were quickly recovered.
 The building was 193 feet long and 106 wide. The upright frame was just fin ished and the workmen were placing the roof stringers in position.
 The plant was formerly owned by the Elba Iron and Bolt Company. The los will be heavy.

Man of FaaIinps.

After a railroad accident in a New England state, poor farmers wife was taken out, bleeding and unconscious. The doctor and kind woman were working over her when her husband came in and stood moment, looking on in undisturbed silence. His cheeks were drawn in, his eyebrows lifted, his hands in his pockets. Presently, with some effort, he cleared his throat to speak, and, as the doctor looked up, he asked: ''Ye didn't see a new tin dip per lyin' round where ye picked her up, did yep" He got no answer from the indignant doctor, and presently strayed out again in search of his dipper. Mean while, his wife-opened her eyes and at once asked for her husband. "He's safe," said the doctor, shortly. She felt his curt tone, and, faint as she was, she divined what it meant. 'He's a dreadful feelin' man," she said, 'but he don't never say much.''

INDIAN CHARACTER.

Evidently Many Whites Do Not Know
 How to Treat the Rcd Men.
 In way of explanation of the Indian character, which has not changed for the worse since 1876, I will speak of an incident that occurred to me during the survey of the Lammi reservation, near what was then called Whatcom, writes J. M. Snow in the Spokane Review. Tn the first place, when the survey party started on the Indian reservation, cer- tain interested white men who were living with Indian women represented to the Indians that the Boston man was going to survey the reservation in such a manner that the Indians would lose one-haf of the land and upon that rep resentation they followed the surveyors into the woods and Seopped them. A barley was held, and as soon as the In- dians were satisfied that the land was being surveyed for them they not only assented, but rendered every assistance possible.
 During the progress of the work the surveyors were caught out in rain storm without shelter. Their only refuge was a cabin belonging to an In dian. They removed the window cas- ings, entered the cabin and remained for a week. The chief of the party by accident met the proprietor of the cabin about a week afterward, who asked: ''Did you go into my house?" The chief replied that he did not know. After the Indian gave a description of the cabin, the surveyor told him his party did enter the cabin. The Indian | said: "Delate nicka sick tum tum.", (I'm very sorry; it was not right). The sur veyor then said: Suppose you had been | at home and had come there in the midst of great storm; what would you have done?" Tho Indian replied that he
 would have invited the surveyorin. The surveyor continued: "You were absent
 when came to your house in a heavy
 storm. Would you have me sit upon your doorstep with your caves dripping on my head because you were absent2" It l struck the Indian as I expected, and l after moments deliberation he said
 "No, no, sir; you did right, and I am l glad that I was able to afford you I shelter"
 After this satisfactory adjustment he made the Indian a present of two dol lars and fifty cents, and he was the
 happiest Indian I ever saw. At the same time the storekeeper on the reser
 vation was obliged to keep six-shoote1 and club at hand to defend himself and drive bargains. That is, in my ! opinion, a statement of the Indian ques l tion from one end of this state to the | other

DUEL WITH RAZORS
Golored Farm Hands Carve
 Each Other Like Demons.
ONE OF THE MEN WAS KILLED
The Survivor Tells His Story of the
 Awful Battle.

They Fought fin a Room Eight Feet squnre-The Dead Man ManKIed Almos Beyond RecognitIon-Thirty Wounds On His sInyer's Body-An Inquest Held by the Coroner and A Verdict Rend ere d.
 NEW YORK, July 30.-Doud Bouc on and Thomas Channel, negro farm hands ant Glen Head, L. l., fought 6 duel with razors in their sleeping room in an old farm house about midnight.
 Channel was killed and Boucon was desperately wounded and just alive when found in the morning.
 The two men occupied a room about eight feet square. They went to bed at the usual time Just exactly what hap pened nobody knows.
 Boucon's version of the affair is that they quarreled before going to bed. Sub seQuently he was awakened to find Channel sitting on him, and, though 1t was dark in the room, he could see tn at Channel was b-andishing 8 razor. He grappled with Channel and the two fell on the floor, Boucon on top.
 Fought Like Demons.
 Both-men fought like demons, each re- ceiving terrible wounds. Boucon re- members nothing after that except that he regatned his senses sufficiently to crawl back into bed, where he was found.
 Boucon has over 30 gashes on his head and neck, one within an eighth of an inch of the jugular vein. He also re- ceived a gash foot long across the ab- domen, nearly disemboweling him.
 Terribly ManEled.
 But Boucon's injuries are nothing com pared to Channels. The dead man is mangled almost beyond recognition from his head to his waist. Everything in the room was covered with blood, streams of which ran through the floor to the room below.
 Boucon's wounds were dressed, and it is thought that there is 8 chance of his recovery. A coroner's jury returned a verdict that Channel was killed in self defense. Two razors, a big knife and 8 club were found in the room where the fight took place

Easily SRf.flAri.

A famous Chicago lawyer once had a singular case to settle. A physician came to him In great distress. Two sisters living in the same house had babies of equal age, who so resembled each other that their own mothers were unable to distinguish them when they were together. Now it happened that by the carelessness of the nurses the children had become mixed, and how were the mothers to make sure that they received back their own in- fants? ''But, perhaps," said the law yer, "the children weren't changed at all" ''Oh, but there's no doubt that they were changed" said the physician. "Are you sure of it2" Perfectly" "Wen, if that's the case, why don't you change them back again? I don't see any difficulty in the case"

A Ghost-Swunr Pendulum,

While fair young daughter of York, Pa., was serenely seated in her aerial bedchamber the other night, weary with the tolls of the day, about to doff her wrap and lay herself down upon her couch to enjoy the kindly embrace of Morpheus, she suddenly heard a strange noise, which affrighted and al- most bewildered her. It was that of an old family clock which had been stored away in her room. Its truthful tones had not been heard for half a century, when all at once it's wheels be- gan to vibrate and the old familiar gong sounded out the time of night-eleven o'clock. It did not strike or ''tick' again, but stopped, not to go again. The alarm is a mystery, and the timid lassie awaits in breathless silence the sequel of the occasion.

ANOTHER illustration of the incon- sistencies of the divorce laws in this country. A married couple were di- vorced in Massachusetts and the defend ant in the suit remarked in Vermont. Both the law of Massachusetts and that of Vermont forbids a divorced defend ant to marry again. But the supreme court of Vermont holds that the prohi- bition does not apply to the defendant in this case. The Massachusetts statute, it says, does not apply because the second marriage did not take place in that state. The Vermont statute has nc bearing for the reason that the divorce was not obtained there.

And How It Resulted in His Becoming a
 Lawyer.
 One of the members of the New York senate, who has passed through q good many experiences during his lifetime, was in his younger days track walker on a New England railroad, says the Buffalo Express. At each end of his route was a small station. The only persons to watch him were in these neighborhoods. Pat Git Is needless to say he was an Irishman) lived in a small house beside the track about half mile from one of these stations. He was the fortunate owner of an old horse and wagon. This is what led to his temptation and downfall. There was a good wagon road running paral- Tel with the track all the way. "Pat," said the tempter, whats to hinder your riding between stations?" ''It wouldn't do," said Pat
 But the idea had taken hold of him and one rainy night he tried 1t. He left his horse half mile from each end of his beat and walked to the stations at his usual time. Over the rest of the distance he rode on the turnpike, trust ing to luck that the track would be all right. The thing was so easy that it soon became settled practice with him. For. three or four months he guarded the company's property in this way and no one was the wiser. Then he was spotted and 8 summary dis charge followed. "A man with your genius for lodging work ought to be a lawyer" said the superintendent.
 'tFaith, think so meself," answered the discharged track walker, and a | lawyer he became.

A Hard Corner,

The age of 30 is a hard corner for a
 woman to turn, and 35 is still harder.
 She feels that she is fast leaving her
 youth behind her. But there is no req
 son why woman should be faded and passe at 35, or even at 45. The chief cause of the early fading of American
 women is found in the fact that many of them suffer from some form of fe- male weakness or disease which robs the face of it's bloom, draws dark circles about the eyes, brings early wrinkles figure with signs of i'll health. Dr Pierce's Favorite Prescription will cure
 all these troubles, will bring back the lost bloom, and remove the pains and ailments which make women grow old before their time. Guaranteed to give satisfaction in every case, or price ($1 .00 refunded,

It Is a Sure Index to Her Character and
 Habits.
 clever woman asserted lately that she could gain a better knowledge of one of her own sex by an inspection of her dressing-room than after a casual acquaintance of years, says the New York Press. ''In fact" she continued, "when one of my sons announces his engagement leave no stone unturned to have the girl under my eye for her morning and evening toilet She is judged accordingly, and from what see can pretty well guess the sort of a wife she will make. How so? Because we women think a thousand times more of such details than you men, and every thrifty or slovenly trait is sure to crop out then. Why, I could make a black and white list for my marrying men friends, after this method, that would prove safe guide to future hap piness in wedloclz. For instance, the girls own room is almost an infallible indication of her tastes and necessities. I do not mean silver mounted toilet articles, a lace-draped dressing table or full length mirrors. They are well enough if she can afford them, but the first thing to note are her books and pictures, her sewing basket, her toilet articles. It is worth while catching a glimpse of her closets and drawers, as they speak volumes for or against their owners tidiness. When gloves are rolled in hard knot, veils jammed under salve pots, ribbons tumbled in with powder and hairpins, beware. That kind of thing is eloquent of curl papers at the breakfast table, muddy coffee and cold biscuit to come."
