NAME OF OWNER.
, 1892-08-27
AN EASY L EYE.

A waggish broker, who is widely and po-
pularly known on the stock exchange, is 30
iourning in the country, and he made consid-
cradle fun for himself and his associates last
week. He is by no means noted as q marks
man, and when be took half a dozen of his
town associates round to the back Of the
house one morning and showed them a bullet
neatly embedded in the bulps-eye of a tar
get, neatly painted on n barn door, the ma
tulal inquiry was, '.Wh0 fred the shot?'
IT fired the shot at 4 distance of two hun
dred yards, =" said the waggish broker, earn
estly.
@Oh, pshawl Nonsense! Pooh pooh
You couldn't have hit the barn at that dis
tance;' were the comments of his friends.
But the waggish broker was persistent, and
he suggested that perhaps some of his friends
would like to bet.
Yes, two or three of them were willing to
wager almost anything from a dinner to a hun
dred pounds, that the young broker did not
fire that saot. He took two bets-one of a
dinner for ten men, and another for q case Of
champagne. Then he brought out two wit
nesses-two distinguished men, who very So
bsrly declared that they had seen hin. with
a rife, standing at a distance Of two hundred
yards away. put the bullet where it was.
The credibility of the witnesses was above
suspicion, and the bets were paid by the los
ers. During the merry-making that followed,
the waggish broker confessed that he had''paint-
ed the target ON the barn after he had fired
the shot.-Ibid.

THE II POWER OF
RIVERS.

We frequently see statements and esti-
mates of the amount of sand and mud that il
annually carried into the ocean by the great
rivers of the world. No one who has seen q
suddenly formed rain torrent cut a deep chan
mel in g roadway can doubt the power of
water to wear away the features of the globe.
In fact it has been estimated that in
about six million years, if the pre-
sent rate Of denudation he continued. the
whole surface of the earth will be
SWoothed off to one general level.
But while it is easy to to see how q river
and it's tributaries can rapidly cut their way
through ordinary soil and sands it ID more
Difficult. to conceive the remarkable effects
produced by water which runs over a bed of
solid rock.
The Colorado River for instance, flowing
between lofty walls of rocks and upon g. rocky
bottom, is still; deepening its channel.
The explanation of the cutting power of the
water Of the Colorado lies, as the Rev. DR..
Hutchinson the g~eologist, has pointed out, in
the fact that it Is charged with ar dbrOught to
it in great quantities by it's tributaries. This
sand, being swept down the steep gradients OF
the river, wears away the rocky bed as emery
dust wears stone.
Thus nature assists nature on all sides, and
the sand that frost and wind and water have
formed out Of the exposed rock Of the noun
nelling and wearing way the better pro-
tected rocks Of the valleys beneath-Yanbee
Blade.

THE LATE Mr.. THOMAS COOK.
From the Daily Telegraph

According to Swift, the greatest benefactor
of mankind was he who was the means of
causing two ears of corn to grow where one
only had grown before; but in the present
depressed state of agriculture. it is to be fear
ed that a good many farmers will scarcely
feel inclined to agree with the iictum OF
the famous Dean of St. Patrick's. A much
larger need of appreciation might appropriate
ly be bestowed on the assertion that the man
who succeeds in inducing the largest number
of his fellow creatures to enjoy holiday trips
and in opening.up to them far-distant lands,
which they can explore at very moderate
costs and charges, is distinctly a benefactor
Of his species, and an important contributor to
The sum of human happiness. Such a phi
lanthropist has just passed away il Mr..
Thomas Cook, who expired at Leicester on
Monday night, in his eighty-fourth year. The
deceased gentleman had been for q considera-
bio time past deprived of sight and otherwise
infrm, but the approximate cause of his death
was a stroke of paralysis. The originator and
founder ofthose tours which are now known
at the uttermost end Of the world began life
very humbly indeed. The only son Of a wi
dowed mother, he began to work, at ten years

The busts of Marggraf and Achard have

COURTSHIP OF ARABS.

How the Son of the Desert Wins His
Bride.
An Arab loves as zone but an Arab can
love, but he is also nightly excitable and
easily won. An Arab sees a girl bearing
water or brushwood and in a moment,
almost at a glance, is as madly in love as
II he had passed years of CO urtship. He
thinks or nothing else, cares and dreams
of nothing else but the girl he loves; and
not infrequently, If he is disappointed in
his affection. he pines and dies. In order
to commence his suit he sends for a mem
Der of the girls tribe who has access to
the harem. and first iusuring his secrecy
by a solemn oath. confesse5 his love and
eutreats his confidant to arrange an in
terview.
The c%onfidant goes to the girl, gives
her q flower or a blade of grass and
says:-Swear by Him who made this
flower and US also that you will not reveal
to any one that which lam abou ito unfold
to YOU" If the girl will not accept the
proposal she will not take the oath, but,
nevertheless, keeps the matter perfectly
secret from all. If she is favorably dis
posed Co the match she answers:-"I
swear by Him who made the flower you
hold and u.s." and the place and time of
meeting are settled. These oaths are
never broken. and 1t is not long before
the ardent lover becomes the happy hus-
band.-NeW Orleans Times Democrat.

SMITH AND ALBEIT.

From This Mornings True american.
The Interview had BY a World reporter
with Mr.. James Smith, Jr., contains the
assertions by that gentleman that he is
not a candidate for the seat in tn g United
States Senate to be filled by the iucom-
ing Legislature; that ne had nothing
TO do with the action of the Essex
delegation. and regards, 1t as a very
handsome compliment. And so it is.
There Is nothing which the Essex Domo-
Gratis would refuse Mr.. Smith, aud
there is very little that the New Jersey
Democrats would withhold. IL he asked
it. This common purpose proceeds from
a realization of his great ability as a
leader-abilities which have pulled Essex
out of the Republican column and kept
her out of 1t. The first man, outside Of
Essex, to recognize these abilities was
Governor Albeit, and much of Mr..
Smiths prominence in State poll
Tics has come from the full en-
couragement and support given him
by Governor Albeit and his friends.
Among those friends Mr.. Smith has by
word and deed numbered himself. aud
when he now says that he is not a candi-
date for the United States SENATE. it re-
quiies no stretch of the imagination to
add the words against Governor Abb
bett."
The enemies of Governor Abbott
tn g who defeated him In 1S77-have
been defeated at all points, they can
not muster a corporal's guard to follow
them in their work of studied malice. If
those men whom Governor ADbett has
a right to call his friends aud to look
to for friendly actions, support him, he
will be elected almost unanimously. And
James Smith is the very last man who
would fire in the face of his friends
ever to win the prize for himself: much
less to add to the difficulties of one who
has trusted to him.

splendid work done by Mr.. Albert
Bruning in the part OF Pierre Clemen-
Ia Mr.. Bruning is an actor of alto
gether uncommon merit. His method s
are easy and natural. He has true
earnestness. He has hardly any
staginess of manner He ought to
be a great success in the fullness of
time. But why that dialect? Pierre
Clemenceau is supposed to be a
F%renchman, talking French. Then
why should he be represented with a
foreign accent? 1t is simply absurd.
The dialect OF Jennie Reiffarth, as the
''Comtesse" Dobronowska, is all right.
She is supposed to be a Russian, talk
ing French, and, of course, may we'll
be portrayed with a foreign accent.
But what do people see in that Bell
woman? AS an actress she is fifth
rate, as a stage beauty, about seventh
rate. As for her igure-if hat is
where she makes the hit-it is GER
tainly handsome if one is devoted to
the school of attenuation. The
cleverest woman in the cast is Virginia
Holland. She dies effectively and
we'll.

MEMS HEADGEAR.

There is a point on every mans head
where that particular man should wear
his hat. Some men can wear their hats
well down, close to the eyebrows, and
look well in doing so. Other mems ap-
Dearance would be fatally ruined by
wearing their hats so low.
Now and then a man can adopt an ir-
regular pose for his hat. sidewise, down
in 'front.'" or a little back, and not lose
caste as reputable member of society.
All the same, whatever position of the
hat is found to be becoming and COM
Portable should be adhered to, and no
new hat accepted which does net reach
and stop at that point.
In determining the proper hat bearings
it is we'll to take a side view of ones self
with the hat on. The hat should come
down low enough to take a firm grip on
the head when the wind blows.-Men'S
