twenty-five thousand dollars. When
he first struck Columbia all the goods

"The Old. Old Story" was pre-.
scented at the Opera House Monday
night to n much smaller audience
than should have witnessed the per
Torrance, which was very creditable,
and which was given under rather
unfavOrab.P conditions including all
audience which in size would discour-
age any company on the road. The
gallery was noisy in the extreme a cd
the performance WAS twice inter
rupted by cackling hen which e.
capped from y negro who either carried
it there with the intention of disturb
ing the audience and the players, or,
having appropriated it from some
hen-rOOst on his way to the theater,
could not dispose of it before the per-
form ance. The play is a comedy
drama, and, as the name indicates, is
made up of the loves and rOmances of
the younger character 1t differs
from many other plays, in that it
lacks the deep-dyed villain so COM
monty seen on the stage, the nearest
approach being an erring but good
natured son whose worst indiscretion
is the hypOthecatiOn of his fathers
securities to cover his gambling trou-
bies. He is conveniently removed
from the scene by an accident during
the time supposed to elapse between
the third and fourth acts, and every
body is happy.

the Tennessee Alliance, intends to run
for Congress in the district once repre-
sented by James X. Polk, more recent
Iy by w. c. WhitthOrne and now by n.
n. Cox. Mr.. Tucker is of a somewhat
gnarled, scraggy and uneven type OF
beauty, with nose like an ant-eater,
voice like cat-fight and face which
is rank poison to the naked eye. His
shape, if shape it may be called that
shape hath none, is of a hat-racky and
promiscuous character impossible to
describe, a thing OF horror and pain
forever. He was about eighty-tour
pounds in the paw-paw season. Mr..
Tucker has never taken any beauty
prizes that we wot of, but he is very
fascinating person-hOrribly so. There
is something morbid in the constitu-
ton of the average man which makes
him love to gaze on such things as
Tucker, and whenever Tucker is adver-
tised to scream at a certain time and
place the people for miles around will
put beeswax in their ears and come in
crowds. The searching tones of Mr..
fuckers Oratory never fail to get in
their work on the dullest audience.
The Seventh Congressional district
has had many an orator whose voice
could stir the blood. Mr.. fuckers voice
does more than that-it makes the
flesh crawl.
The size Of Mr.. fuckers hat is not
large, but his month is mighty, and
his gall is great.

the family live and the meals are cooked
and eaten, and the boys and girls are as
blithe ard gay as the sparrows in the

SO much wealth and learning, nor clothing
nor servants, nor toll nor idleness, nor
town nor country, nor station, as tone and

Reflections.

It is not true that repression is good for
the soul. 1t is only good for some souls,
and good for them only under some con.
ditions. Even if they fail to perish under
it, you can never know how much sweeter,
finer, ripper, they might have been under
different circumstances. The night ole ON
ing cereus IS the only flower absolutely in
jured by the sunshine; and, though it
keeps its grace in the dark,-indeed, only
wins it in the dark,-there are fewer to
appreciate and enjoy the grace SO hardly
won. The soul under repression is like the
closed piano that you see in houses in the
country; there is a fine cloth over the
piano, and the dust is kept out, and there
are vases scattered ove- the closed top,
with very pretty flowers, perhaps, in Che
vases; but if it were open there might be
music. You remember how "Romola,
who loved homage, fourlshed under it as
a lily lifting itself to the light" To a
woman of 6ne literary culture, com plain-
ing of her isolated life, | said, ''But your
isolation has made you what you are. -
Yes" she answered quickly.-s'what |
am but not what | might be. Alice

Playing Second Fiddle.

Said one friend to another whom he
was asking 10 do certain service: a.
want you only to perform the part of
second fiddle, but it is very useful part
sometimes" The remark is tru, one.
The orchestra is not full without the in
strument that plays the subordinate part.
TIE trained ear of the musician would at
once notice the absence of that instrument.
even though the auditor does not quickly
distinguish If. And yet even tie ordinary
auditor might feel lack even while he
could not precisely name the cause. 1t is
Just so In the great orchestra of life.
There are those who, for the time being
or more permanently, must occupy the
less prominent places and do the
less conspicuous work The careless
observer, he whose thought does not &c
below the surface, will take little note of
them, He would Indeed miss them if they
did not do their work, but as & rule their
presence and their endsavors are unheed-
ed by the mass. But they are doing use
full work all that. And these humble work
ers can take to themselves the comfort
that there is one who has his eye up IN
them, who recognizes the true worth of
all they do, who thoroughly understands
that the grand anthem would be less com
plete, less perfect, without them. These
humble ones may gladly catch the voice
of the Master saying, verify say un ,

LOOK AT HIS Ely z
If he Be Dishonest You Can See IT At a
Glance.

The eye always indicates the character
Of the man. This Is particularly true Of
thieves, for the expert detective can tell
III almost every case whether or not Z man
is thief by simply looking him squarely
in the eyes. a Well-known detective, IL
speaking Of this matter the other day,
said
Yes, sir, can pick a thief out every
time. | can't tell you what it is that
gives the man away except that it IS the
expression of the eye In tae first place
there are few thieves that will look you
squarely in the eye dnless they are obliged
20 do so. They will avoid your glance as
long as they can, ard even when they do
face you and gaze steadily at yoG II Is
al ways with the same expression. Al
though their eyes may be wide open, and
the gaze apparently steady, you will see
if YOU look closely that there is a some
thing away back through the corner
trying 10 avoid you. | have picked out
numbers Of thieves by this little lodging
movement. ] never saw q thler who was
free from it.
Everybody has met that man who
resolutely refuses to meet a steady gaze
for more than three or four seconds at a
tine. It Is not fair to say that all such
persons are dishonest In many cases this
D culiarity is a direct result Of baShful
ness A little close observation will enable
tie observer TO put persons in the class IL
which they belong. The man whose eye
is 8lm0nd-shaped is almost always DIS
honest at heart, if not in overt act. The
eyes of some of the most notorious thieves
in the country are Of this pattern, and the
expression given the face by this sort of
eye is very striking"
Another characteristics thief's eye is the
one whose lower lid is straight, says the
Pittsburgh Press, while the upper one is
more or less arche6. The straight lower
lid is always noticeable, however, the
effect being a very cunning and foxIiKe
expression. Detectives usually have very
noticeable eyes, keen and clear, although
one Of the best thief-takers that the writer
has ever known has big brown eyes, IS
innocent il their expression as are those
If frank and honest schooboy. This is
his natural expression, but when he be
comes Interested in anything his lids close
and his gaze is as penetrating as that OF
an eagle.

AN ENGINEERING WONDER.
The Russian Railway Through the Kara
Kun Desert

Taken altogether the Russian TranSca-
plan railways is one of the engineering
wonders Of this, the iron bound century.
At first it was considered impossible TO
maintain a road through the shifting
sands of the Kara Xum desert, but Gen.
Annenkof, who was superintendent Of
construction, overcame what was supposed
to be an insurmountabIe obstacle by cover
ing mis- railroad with clay and planting
tie sides with thickets of desert plants
and shrubs. But when this had been done
and the roadbed assured, cry went up to
the effect that the scneme would have to
be abandoned because there was neither
fuel nor water along the line. The dough-
ty general solved the water problem by
bringing wafer in pipes from the noun
tains, and his cousin constructed a loco
motive which used petroleum for fuel
But yet there was another great obstacle
in the way, the classic Oxus, which would
have to be crossed with bridge 1000
feet longer than the Brooklyn wonder.
This difficulty was finally overcome, and
the road is now in active operation

would 90 on to IveGness. Then the lug
gage steward said:
"Oh! 90 to the devil"
The lady, in high state of Indignation,
reported the man to the captain. That
gentleman told the steward he must find
out the lady and apologize to her. The
steward consented to do so.
At luncheon he appeared and accosted

Were you the lady l told to 90 to the
