But Secretary Perkins Trunkful Isn't
Worth Anything Now.
Secretary Perkins of the New York &
New England road carried trunkful of
interesting papers down from Boston
yesterday and dumped them in the
comptroller's office. Those papers stood
once, on their face value, for 81 1926 900.
OF this amount 81, 5000 worth were
bonds of the old Boston, Hartford &,
Erie road and 1926 900 worth were the
bonds of the Connecticut Central.
All had long since been taken up and
retired by the New England road, but,
like all bonds of roads in this state, they
had been entered on the books in the
comptrollers Office, and these books
still represented outstanding obligations.
The object of bringing them to the
comptroller's Office was to secure their
formal cancellation.

The Homestead Strike

Is the talk of the day at present, by men,
women and children and by one of our
competitors and it ia very thoughtful for
him Tor whoever thought it for him) to
start funds for the strikers. Brennan is
in favor of the workingmen and he hopes
they win the day.
Brennan wants to know when the
bakers are to have their picnic, they have
had no day to themselves in years, and he
thinks II all proprietors shut their place
of business up for one afternoon it would
be big help to the workingmen that
work at such confusing work. AS Bren-
nan is the only baker in this city who
makes home made bread, his head baker
IS perfectly willing to give very important
tips on how 1t is made providing they give
picnic.

MIR. Howells' Future Plans.

While Mr.. Howells will not, during
1893, confine his literary work to any
single periodical, it may be authorita-
lively announced that he has entered
into contract with The Ladies' Home
Journal whereby his most important
work will, for some time to come, first
see print in the pages of that magazine.
His new novel, ''The Coast of Bohemia, :"
begins in the Christmas issue of the
Journal, and Immediately upon its close
Mr.. Howells will begin in the magazine
series of editorial autobiographical
papers, in which he will tract the
influence which led him to literary life,
his course of reading and his favorite
authors and books. The article will
practically tell the story of the famous
novelties life, and promise to possess in
a rare degree that attractive interest
which always attaches itself to the life
of successful man when told by
himself Howells had his early
struggles; his early resources were few,
and these he traces among other things
in these articles, describing, too, how
he mastered four different languages to
acquaint himself with the literature of
the counties most attractive to him.

II you want to know people, you must
get near them: first get down to their
level, and then bring them up to yours,
not waiting for any great occasion, or a
more direct revelation, but taking
advantage of small opportunities, and
making your influence felt in quiet,
unobstructive ways. There is always
some one to smile at somebody to give
your chair to, somebody to whom a
book, flower or even an old paper
will make it possible that in need these
friends will give you opportunities to
help them which, unless you had shown
thoughtfulness and regard for them
they could never have done. A quiet,
sympathetic look or smile many time
unbars heart that needs the help you
can give-Josephine Pollard.

Mining Notes.
'ockwayville Record. /

tBrockwayville Rccord.l
No. mine at Dagus, which was shut
down when the Northwest company
reduced its mining force in September,
has started up again. At the time it
was closed the indications were that it
was not likely to resume very soon.
Last week, however, operations were
once more started and men are being
employed as fast as they make
application.
The Brock mines people are making
new opening on the William McMinn
farm on the other side of the Clover
ridge where they are now operating.
In order to reach the new mine tunnel
is being driven through the ridge at
No. drift and a tram road will be
constructed across the intervening
ravine. The coal will be brought
through the tunnel and loaded from
the chutes on this side.

Three months ago his collar button
rubbed little raw place on the back of

Those in the world who, it is said
''have a chance" are generally those
who improve what chances they have,
and by small steps rise to high places.
''"To him that hath shall be given, but
from him that hath not shall be taken
away even that he hath" Those who,
instead OF enthusiastically hanging their
hands and the corners Of their mouths
and lamenting that they have mo
chance in life,' go vigorously and
resolutely to work improving the
chances they have, by and by come out
on table-lands where wide horizons
spread around them. The great world
may know little Of them, but they bear
within themselves the proud conscious
ness of the victor, and lead a life whose
hidden springs are fed from the Infinite.

The Sword Cane in rrnnce.

Loud cries for help were heard pro-
ceeding from the end of the Rue dc la
Chapelle on Saturday night. and on
fastening to the spot the police found
three men lying wounded on the pave
ment. One Of them, named Francois de
Geyter, had been run through the body
with sword cane and died shortly
afterward. The others were not so
severely injured. Louis Desilter had
received wound in the neck, and the
third, soldier of the Third engineers,
named Henry BoufIiers, had his left
hand pierced by a sword thrust.
They were taken to che mist to have
their wounds dressed, and were able to
make statement as to the cause of the
affray. They said that they were passing
along the Rue de la Chapelle; they met
two men and two women who were
singing most discordantly. De Geyter
and his companions began to initiate
them, and a quarrel, which terminated
in a fight, was the result. The two men.

''When l receive my pay at the end

With the majority, shall we say?-well
with great many-the statement
would have to be reversed. When they
receive their pay it is hardly sufficient
to pay their debts. They are always
behind, always poor, and always
unhappy. The difference between these
two classes OF people is great The
secret of it is debt. In many instances
people might just as easily keep out of
debt, and have their finances ahead OF
them, as to have them always dragging
behind. Every family which has erred
in this matter should determine to get

economy, and then keep square.

How we'll we all know by experience
that every day brings its provocations,
its perplexities, its Misunderstanding.
Irritations arise; frictions make their
appearances; hurts are received. How
hard it is amid all these conditions to
guard ones tongue, and leave unspoken
what is best covered by silence. A
mosquito bite may, if properly culti-
waited, develop into an ulcer. Keep the
skin thoroughly 'abraded, sprinkle on
q little acid, touch it with minute
particles of poison, and one may have a
cancer or gangrene. The body will
soon discharge its impurities partially
into that sunken place, and help convert
1t into an open sewer. But let a
mosquito bite alone, or apply a little
sweet-oil and ammonia, and it soon
disappears, leaving no trace. A little
wound in the spirit may be cultivated
until the whole nature is infected.

Proving Ownership.

A very amusing trial developed out
of suit of replevin for dog, brought
by DR.. E. T. Brady against John A..
Levi in Justice Shannon's court in
Kansas City recently. Both parties
claimed the ownership of the dog. DR..
Brady's attorney, however, stated that
they could prove the claimantship be-
yond doubt by the recognition of the
dog for Mrs. Brady, and she was accord
ingly summoned. The animal immedi-
ately jumped from his place in the
prisoners box and showed with every
demonstration Of canine joy his recog-
milton of his mistress.
In consideration of the adverse testi-
mony this was still not convincing to
the judge, so Mrs. Brady said that if
she would sing certain song the ami
NAL, in response to his training, would
join in with her in his dog fashion and
voice and sing the song through. This
she did, and at the first words of the
song the dog leaped for joy and fulfilled
his part of the duet. No further evil
dence was taken, and the canine re-
turned home with Mrs. Brady.
