may take for granted, although he may
not particUlarize them, because they are

THE HORSE CAME TO A FULL STOP.

ing along the read when poor man ap-
preached, and pulling off his hat asked for
aims. The horse Immediately came to a
full stop and refused to move for either
coaXing or threats. This was awkward
for the young man, who had no money,
and the horse seemed to be waiting for
something; but bright idea seized him.
He plunged his hand into his empty pocket
and pretended to take out some money
and made motion as if putting it in the
poor mans hat. This he had no sooner
done than the animal trotted on again.
After going on for some distance another
beggar pulled off his hat, and the horse
again stood still. This time Zelteur was
prepared for the occasion, and pretended to
put money in the mans hat; the animal
went on his way quite satisfied. The wine
was duly delivered to the clergyman, and
Zelteur, having encountered during the
journey several mendicants, all of whom
he induced the horse to pass by pretending
to give them something, returned TO Kos
ciusko and told him he would never ride
his horse again unless he also lent him his
purse.
why so?" asked Kosciusko. And then
the young man, much to the generals
amusement, narrated the incidents of the
journey and how he was obliged to pretend
TO give something to the poor beggars in
order to satisfy the horse.

COUNTRY VISITING.
The Duties of Hostess and Guest-The
Charm of an American Country House.

Charm of an American Country House
No one possessed OF his senses would in
yite person to his country house for the
purpose Of making him unhappy. At least
so one would say at first thought But it
Is an obvious fact, according TO Mrs. Sher-
wood, who is authority on manners and
social usages, that very many guests are
invited TO the country houses of their
friends and are made extremely miserable
while there. They have to rise at unusual
hours, eat when they are not hungry, drive
or walk or play tennis when they would
prefer doing anything else. and they are
oohged TO give up those hours which are
precious TO them for other duties or pleas
ures; SO that many people after an expert
ence OF visiting are apt to say, No more
OF the slavery Of visiting for me, if you
please"
"A lady guest, - says Mrs Sherwood, ''is
apt to be slave. from the fact that, as
yet, the American hostess has not learned
that the truest hospitality Is to let her
guest alone and to allow her TO enjov her
self IN her own way. A thoroughly well
bred guest makes no trouble in a house:

A RIVER TRAGEDY.
Or That Fatal Night on Board the Lone
Pelican.
Moonlight on the raging Mississippi!

Moonlight on the raging Mississippi
The magnificent sidewheel steamer Lone
| Pelican, bound for New Orleans, sped
! swiftly down the Father of Waters, whose
turbid waves, as if angry at the intrusion,
! lashed the crum bling shores with fierce
ness that changed the geography of the
! country at every swash.
! The great steamboat, with its precious
cargo of human lives, mess pork, hides,
furniture and agricultural implements,
was full of life and gayety. High rose the
| spirits of the passengers. The supper tables
had been cleared away, but in the faint
odors that still pervaded the long and ele-
CANT saloon of the Lone Pelican there
fingered grateful "reminiscences of the
sumptuous banquet
Myriads of cutglass pendants reflected
the light from the chandeliers and twinkled
and danced merrily to the music of the
paddle wheels, that churned the water in
obedience to the impulse of the great en-
gines, whose ceaseless throb proclaimed
the mighty steamer thing of life And
the white and gilded interior, that stretched
away in gorgeous perspective, reflected the
twinkling lights and mirrored, as well, the
happy faces of the throng that fingered
outside and on the hurricane deck over
head wandered the sentimental and the
moonstruck.
Far in the distance astern trailed a dense,
black cloud of smoke from the tall smoke
stacks. Far ahead pierced the vision of
the keen eyed pilot, whose trained iudg-
ment. memory and skill guided the floating
palace through the wild waste of waters
Silence reigned in the Lone Pelican
Naught but the monotonous chug-chug Of
the engines and the tremulous beating Of
the paddle wheels disturbed the reposeful
stiffness that brooded over all.
Suddenly arose a wild, unearthly, appall-
ing clafnor. Fierce, angry. demoniac yells
and execrations reused from their slumbers
the hundreds of sleeping passengers on
board. Crash followed crash. Sounds as
of heavily falling bodies were heard in
quick succession, and the din grew louder
and yet louder.
Frantic men, women and children half
clad came out Of their staterooms and with
pallid lips and trembling voices tried TO
