A nro,nentarx pelar.


At first blush it would seem to be an
impossible feat for a Pedestrian poor,
defenceless woman, at that--to success-
fully bar three entrances to the Brooklyn
bridge. 1t took place on the Brooklyn
side one morning last week, when the
wage workers were hurrying to the
metropolis, and a large assembly was
kept in a state of suspense for minutes
that seemed ages.
To explain the feat accomplished, you
remember how the entrances are ar
ranged-a ticket Office on either side, be-
tween them two iron parallel bars to
guide you through Between these rail-
ings is a space through which you pass
ontothe ''chopping boxes, where tickets
are deposited, but if you have to pur-
chase them You pass between a rail and
the box.
She was a gray haired old lady and she
wished to buy ticket. There would
have been less difficulty had it not been
for the umbrella. II was thrust under
the old lady's arm as q man poses his
umbrella when going mp the IL" stairs
point to the rear and breast high.
The old lady stepped into the middle
space, and while the umbrella swung
round like tollgate bar, closing the
space behind her, she reached over to
the ticket Office and calmly proceeded to
open her purse, tumble a roll Of bills,
finally select one, and with both arms
stop the passing Of pedestrians until q
disgusted lot of humanity was damned.
With the umbrella posed like an in
fantryman's bayonet fixed torepel caval-
ny the old lady and her gray hairs held
the fort. AT last her pennies and tickets
had been picked up one by one. She
gave way and the crowd surged around
her like the foodtide around a shad pole
in the North river.-New York Herald.

Seen in the metropolis.

A refuse cart was close to the curb on
Thirty-seventh street, between Madison
and Fifth avenues, recently, while the
driver, healthy young Irishman, talked
to a woman who had ON each side little
chap dressed in sailor costume. Most
passersby must have taken her for
nurse out with her charges from one Of
the fashionable houses near by. After
two minutes talk the woman lifted the
lads one by one to the side of the rough
driver, who had carefully spread a piece
of stout paper over his cargo to protect
the clothing of the children.
One lad, tucked close under the driv-
er's arm, was permitted to hold the reins,
while the other po1ed the staid horse
with short stick. The three drove off
eastward, smiling, while the woman fol-
lowed on the sidewalk. The children
We're the drivers own, and they were as
well dressed as half the children native
to the locality in which the scene oc-
curred.-New York Sun.

We have to be governed very largely
by the analogies of nature whenever we
venture into the realm Of the possibih-
ties and the unknown, and there is no
analogy in nature Of something being
given for nothing. The seed has to
push through the ground to find the sun;
the tree has to draw its sap up from I'M
seen sources to whirl forth its buds; the
bud itself has to force its way through
obstacles Of bark and fiber; the bird has
to build its nest with careful endeavor
and many journeys ere it feels the little
wings beneath its breast; the gold has to
be mined, the precious stone dug from
the matrix; the diamond has to undergo
fierce processes of grinding and securing
before its facets shine like living light.
Struggle is the rule Of life. Were it
otherwise it would seem as though we
might all Of us have been put upon the
planet in conditions of luxury and ease
and eminence that would require no
effort on our part, and leave us free for
all the enjoyment the world affords.
But what soft, untempered, worthless
metal we should be in such easel 1t is
the fire that tempers the steel; it is the
hammer that YIELDS it; the grinding,
whirling stone that brings it to an edge.

The Juice of the Papaw rree.

In his History of Barbados Griffith
Hughes mentions that the. juice Of the
papaw tree is Of so penetrating a nature
that, if the unripe peeled fruit be boiled
with the toughest old salted meat, it
quickly makes it soft and tender. Ker-
stem also tells MS that boiling meat with
the juice Of the papaw is quite a com
mon thing in Quito
Captain S. p. Oliver, writing in Ma

hanging the ration under the leaves

for a very tender piece Of fillet, our cook
would wrap up the undercut Of the sir
loin in the leaves, when the newly
killed meat would be as tender as if it
had been hung for a considerable time"

Yawninr Witnesses.

A few evenings ago half dozen men
were sitting out in front Of the Capital
hotel discussing various topics, when
Judge Yost, of the supreme court, in
telling an anecdote of trial, remarked
that the witness yawned and he knew
he was lying.
"How did you know" was asked.
"Well, sir, have seen witnesses lie
and not yawn, but never knew one to
yawn that he was not telling a lie."
Judge Sims. the member of the legis-
lature from Trigg, remarked, Eyes,
always know a witness is lying when he
yawns."
Senator Dave Smith said, Ell is al
most invariably the case"
Judge Wall, the senator from Mason,
came up and corroborated the state
ments Of the others, and just then Judge
Brent, Of the superior court, Joined the
group. "When a witness yawns he is
telling lie, and he knows it."
Several other lawyers were appealed
to, and all bore out the statements made.
None, however, could explain the phe-
nomenon. Judge Yost was the only one
who had a theory, and that was that
when a fellow was swearing to lie he
could not face the music, and his en-
barrassment found expression in yawns.

A Poor rolk.. oarden.

So early were collectors in California,
and SO universal was the interest felt in
Europe over the new plants Of the Pc
cifc coast, that many trees Of sequoias
and other superb conifers were planted
in the parks of England, France and
Italy long before the discovery of gold.
Wealthy Califorhians, as early as 1853,
visiting Europe, were surprised to find
how popular were the brilliant annuals,
Towering shrubs, vines and trees of
their own state. Returning they often
urged neighbors to cultivate more Of the
native plants, but with little effect.

Some persons are hard to satisfy. The
thing in hand is of little worth, but the
object beyond reach seems all desirable.
A clergyman in Maine, WHO lives near
the seacoast, narrates an occurrence
which gave him moment Of disappoint-
ment, but which has also supplied him
with very good story to tell.
He had planned beautiful drive for
the benefit of lady from the west who
was visiting his family-a lady who had
never seen the ocean. The route was
chosen in such way that not a glimpse
of the sea would be had until, at a GER
tain bend in the road, the party would
come out upon high open space, com
manding amagnifcent view OF the broad
Atlantic.
AS the carriage came out upon the
plateau the clergyman turned a beanling
face on the lady, expecting from her an
exclamation of delight; but instead Of
happiness on her countenance, he saw
look of longing.
"Oh," she said, with a sigh, chow
wish l could see the Youths
Companion.

A Young Child WIG.

The conversation had drifted to early
marriages, and Allan Thompson, of
Dubuque. said: 1.-THE youngest wife
ever knew lived at Fairview, la. Her
maiden name was Ella Hotchkiss, and
at the age of eleven she was married to
youth of eighteen, whose name can
not now recall. l frequently saw her
after her marriage playing with other
children about the village, making mud
pies, etc. About a year after the mar
riage little daughter--a tiny thing
weighing but three pounds-was born
to the youthful couple. The ladies Of
.he neighborhood then persuaded the
child wife to don long dresses and quit
jumping the rope in the street. st

The ror1nation OF Heat.

nj. Lagrange has communicated to the
Belgian academy paper on the forma-
ton of bodies in the universe. In this
paper he expresses the opinion that, be-
fore any expenditure Of work, the guam
tity Of heat of the universe was nil, that
the temperature was gradually raised
above absolute zero at the expense Of
work done by attraction, and hence the
formation Of solid bodies must have pre-
ceded that Of liquids and gases; that,
through the gradual condensation Of
matter and consequent enormous devel-
opment of heat, the earth would attain,
at least in the parts near the surface, the
state of fuidity necessary to its form and
geological characters; then, as the tenn
perature gradually rose with gradual
agglomeration Of matter, a very dense
atmosphere would form, with pressure
diminishing outward, and in more adj
vanced phase, the temperature of this,
after reaching a maximum, would gradu-
ally diminish, causing liquefaction or So
hdihcation of certain matters at first
vaporous, while other solid bodies might
remain suspended in the atmosphere.
Briefly, M. Lagrange, in calculation
of the basis Of his original and remarka-
bic theory, as thus set forth, declares
that space is occupied by two substances,
namely: One, attractive which is mat
ter properly so called, or material atoms;
the other, repulsive, which occupies the
interatomic space, and from which re-
suits between any two atoms variable
repulsion exercised at the surface Of the
latter.-Philadelphia Ledger.

Caste Broken Down by street Cars.

Street cars in Bombay are mostly Of
American manufacture, and the pro-
moters Of the street car lines are Ameri-
cans. When it was proposed, not many
years ago, to start such lines Europeans
prophesied their failure upon the ground
that such common public conveyances
could not be profitable in a caste ruled
community. 1t was believed that the
high caste man, who will not eat or
drink from the vessel used by a low
caste man, would refuse to ride in a
public conveyance beside his humble
brother.
In spite Of these doleful prophecies the
railways We're built and equipped, and
lol the high caste man complacentlypays
his fare and rides untroubled by the
side Of any sort Of man. The cheapness
and convenience Of the street cars were
too much for even the hard and fast
rules Of caste.--Chicago Tribune.

A book, the leaves Of which are uncut,
possesses no value Of an intrinsic char
acter beyond one that is cut, but really
less. For that matter, if it is to remain
uncut, it is as valueless as it is useless.
There is a class Of book collectors, how
ever, who place a premium upon books
with uncut leaves, and so commend
them in their advertisements and cir
culars. There are persons who load
certain shelves in their libraries with
uncut books. OF course they are not for
