RATS STEALING EGGS.
A Funny Scene witnessed In the
CItY of WashingtOn.

City of Washington.
do you want to see something funny ?"
said a well known drug clerk to Post re-
porter last evening. Of course the reporter
was not averse to seeing something in the
humorous line, and so informed the mixer
Of pills and powders.
, ''Well, if no one comes in for moment
III show it to you" said he, placing bas-
ket Of eggs, used in making egg phosphates,
from the top of the soda fountain to the
counter. "Now stand here and watch the
rats, f" and the news man stood where he
could get good view.
1t took but moments silence, and then
out popped hoary old rat, soon followed
by three more. They seemed to under
stand their part and climbed nimbly up a
box about a foot high, used in covering
pipes, and from that to the tray under the
counter where the glasses are washed.
Up on top of another box they went and
then to the top Of the counter. They looked
around, and began to scamper down. The
first descended to the floor, the second re-
manned on the box, the third on the tray,
and the fourth on the high box. Seeing
they were all there, the old rat on top
walked to the eggs and picked up one, car
rying it with his front legs, walking on his
hind feet like squirrel. He dropped il
over and it was caught by thesrat beneath,
who in turn gave it to the one beneath
him. This rat jumped down and rolled
the egg under the soda fountain. In this
manner they carried down six eggs in ex-
actly one minute, when, thinking the fun
was getting expensive, the clerk drove
them away.
They will steal them by the dozen if I'll
let them" said the clerk, and we have to
keep them on the top of the fountain. -

AN HOUR WITH HOWELLS

Profitable as other Walks in Life
The Literature of To-day.

COPYRIGHT, 1892. BY BACHELLER JOHNSON.
w. D. Howells occupies to-day an Ell
via bic position in American literature.
His place is at the head Of the first rank
of our romance writers. He is very in
drstrious, and his contributions to
various branches of literature are very
numerous. His essays, studies of life
and crisp criticisms would have made
his name thoroughly well known with
out the aid of his romances. In some
ways his career has been an unusual
one. He has the culture and the wide
knowledge of the best university edu-
cation, while he himself has never
passed through a college.
Recently | have had two interviews
with Howells, and have obtained from
him so me things which will interest his
friends and admirers, as well as those
who are curious about literary matters.
Mr.. Howells found his university in
Europe. The influence of Europe came
to him at the formative stage of life.
He came back before he was denational.
lied, and has visited Europe only once
since In this he differs essentially from
many of our literary people who make
Europe their home and use this country
only as market for their wares. The
best outline of Mr.. Howell's early life
will be found in his book entitled "a
Boys Town" Those who are curious
for details will find additional informa-
ton concerning the childhood period OF
this distinguished writer in an article
contributed by him recently to the
youths Companion"
Chance or good fortune has its in
fuence in determining careers. The bit
of chance or good fortune which turned
Mr.. Howells into the pathway of
European leisure and study came
through the friendship of Messrs.
Nicolay and Hay. who were the private
secretaries to President Lincoln when
Mr.. Howells was first stirred with an
ambition to go to Europe. The latter
applied for the Consulate of Munich.
He was then weil-informed country
youth. His father was the editor of
country newspaper in Ohio. Mr.. How
ellis learned the trade of printer in
his fathers Office. Some of his first
articles were set at the case His father
gave him good common school educa-
ton. The young man had great love
for books, and a tendency in the direc-
ton of the study of languages. He first
acquired a good knowledge of Latin,
and then learned the rudiments Of
