Jonas Hanway was said to be the
first man who carried an umbrella in
the streets of London. Umbrellas were
long before that carried by women, but
they were considered q feminine lux
ury, and man would no more be seen
with one than nowadays he would walk
the streets with a parasol in summer or
carry muff in winter.
But Jonas Hanway, thinking, like q
sensible man, that all the good things
should not be appropriated by women,
boldly walked the streets one day with
an umbrella probably it belonged to
his wife) over his head. He not only
kept himself dry among his moist fell
low creatures, but he rendered his
name immortal, and left shining ex<

courage Of our convictions"
country got used to umbrellas, says
Harper's Young People. 1t was told Of
one distant corner Of Scotland that in
this quarter umbrellas were sported
only by the laird and the minister, and
were looked upon by the common class
of people as perfect phenomena. To
see the minister or the laird go by with
an umbrella over his head was as good
as circus to the small boys of the vii
lage.
One day Daniel Mcpherson called up
on the laird to pay his rent. AS he was
about to leave hard shower came on,
and Daniel, being well-to-do man
and much respected" the laird polite
ly offered him the use of an umbrella.
Daniel proudly accepted the loan, and,
much elated, walked off with his head
held several inches higher than usual
he had not been gone many minutes,
however, when to the laird's surprise
he saw Daniel posting back with all pos
sible haste, the umbrella still held firmly
over his head. ~'.7ss--..1.-
'Hae, hae, Kornel," he called out,
''this'll never do! There's nae a door

Poor Daniels head had not yet
grasped the umbrella must be shut up
before he tried to take it in the door.

HIRAM AND THE BULL.
It Was Question Which Was the Big
 gest Coward.

gest Coward.
 Ten years ago the hunter, ambitious to secure a buffalo, could still go to region where he could kill hundreds of them. Then there was Western town" into which the buffalo often came down at night, and it was not un- usual for the residents when they arose in the morning to see bunch within rife range of the houses. Among the dwellers in this town was one who, although he had lived on the frontier since the early sixties, had never killed buffalo. One morning when Hiram looked out of his door he saw, not far away, great buffalo bull rubbing his ragged sides against the bole of an old cottonwood tree. Here was chance such as had never before presented itself. Such an opportunity might not occur again" and he was filled with a great longing to kill this bull.
 Seizing a gun he crept out. and steal ing through the sage brush and among the trees, was soon quite near the bull Its immense size-for he had never be fore been close to buffalo somewhat startled the hunter, but he had gone too far to retreat now. Feeling little nervous he leveled his gun and fired. At the report the bull jumped little and then glared slowly about with an ais of the utmost ferocity, as if eager to pulverize who. ever had fired the shot. This slow searching gaze and the brute's fierce as- pect were too much for His nerves. They gave way, and, dropping his gun, he ran nimbly to the nearest tree and climbed into it with the activity of boy The bull meantime was thunder ing off in the opposite direction. while some of his companions, who had been looking on, were shouting with laugh ter

CAUGHT A WILD MAN.
A STRANGE AND MOST PA
 THETIC NARRATIVE.
Discovery of Hermit Who Has Lived Year In the Woods, Eating Nuts and Roots-He Has Talked to No One. and Has a Long Growth of Hair.

A wild man was captured recently at Six-Mile Ferry, a suburb of Homestead, Pa, on the F., V. & c. railroad. Con- stable Charles Stewart of Alderman A. J. Kuhns nffice made the capture. Some boys who had been roaming in the vicinity caught sight of him and chased him into a thickly wooded ravine, where he suddenly disappeared from view.
 A guard was stationed over the thiclSet where he was seen to enter, and word was sent to Squire Kuhn's office, when Constable Stewart was sent to the scene, and, boldly entering the woods where the wild man was in hiding, he dragged him from his lair. The poor, unfortunate creature offered DO resistance whatever and readily entered the constable's buggy when ordered to do SO He was then driven to the Homestead loclS-up and placed in q cell, and was immediately furnished with warm meal, which he ate in most voracious manner.
 The poor fellow was in half-famished condition, and he gave evidence that he appreciated the kindness of the constable much as would home less dog when thrown a bone. At first it was difficult to get the unfortunate man to speak, but when consistently questioned by reporter the following facts connected with his strange life were elicited
 He said his name was Steve Fahren- bach, and that he came from Freiburg, Germany, nine years ago, and worked on Il farm up to last April, when he lost his position, and, becoming dis couraged in his vain attempt to

lots free of the original cost. But each person who received one of these had to pay the county clerk s2.5o for his deed. in addition to his $i for admission to the theatre Thus, his total outlay for ticket and land amounted to s3. 50. As the land cost originally only 8 an acre, the cost of each of these town lots to Curtis was only about three cents, which he could well afford to give as premium upon the tickets. Besides this it was generally supposed that he ''stood Tn" with the county clerk, and made good thing over and above the original outlay.
 For the two weeks season In San Francisco the plan worked like charm. and Curtis played to crowded houses.
 A small town in California, half of which he owned, was called Posenville in honor of his play. He started to build large summer hotel there, but his finances couldn't stand it, and the building had to be stopped. It was afterward turned into seminary.

secure employment. and having no friends or relatives on this side of the Atlantic, he retired to the ravine where he was found by Officer Stewart. He has been living in the woods since last April, and has subsisted during that time on roots, nuts and apples that he gathered on the surrounding farms. Occasionally he would in the dead of night enter a garden and dig mp with his fingers potatoes and other stray vegetables that had been left in the ground, take them to his den and roast them over a wood fire.
 In all the time he has been leading this strange life he has not come in contact with human being nor ut tered single word. He gives evidence of being a man of education and re- finement and converses in German. French and English He said he was unable to recall the proper words to express himself, it being such a long time since he heard the sound of human voice.
 His head and face was covered with a long growth of hair, which gave him a wild and uncanny look. The man is about B years old; 5 feet and 8 inches in height, weight about 160 pounds, blonde hair sprinlsled with gray, light brown mustache. long Roman nose, low forehead, sound pearly teeth.
 It has been known that strange be- ing was seen at times haunting the valley, he having been seen for a moment or two and then as suddenly disappearing. Last fall, shortly after Fitzsimmons had made his escape from the County Jail, it was thought that he was hiding in this vicinity, and posse under Squire Oeffner went down into the hollow and searched for him in the abandoned coal pits. When this was broached to the wild man, he re- membered it we'll, and said he fled to the hills and remained there for three days.

house. Some weeks ago the Ogle fam fly moved their chattels into an old brick house, the remnant of what was once large building, which was cut in two in order to allow an exten- sion of Twenty-third street. Mir. Ogle is workingman, and is consequently, but little at home during the day time. Nothing unusual was noticed about the house when first occupied, and being strangers in the neighborhood, the Ogles were not in a position to learn the uncanny history of the house. They were not long left in this state of ig- norance, however, for the Wednesday following the occupancy of the house Mrs. Ogle was startled to hear coming uproar, which, of itself startled her, and she was even more affrighted when, upon running to the room to investi- gate the cause of the scuffiing noise, she was unable to discover whence it proceeded.
 After the first feeling of fear had dis appeared it dawned upon her mind that possibly she had been deceived by the i sound; that it might have been caused by some commotion outside the house Nevertheless. that night she informed her husband on his return from work of the strange sound she had heard. and there the matter rested.
 Nothing further occurred to recall the unpleasant experience until a week from the same day, and at about the same hour, when second and precisely similar noise was heard. This time Mrs. Ogle was more rapid in her move ments, and she gained entrance to the room whence came the noise. The hor- rible sight which she there encountered all but dethroned her reason. There, to one side of the room and immediately in front of the doorway in which she stood, was a man hanging by rope from the ceiling, his face depicting all the agony of death by strangulation. Instantly the specter vanished from her sight, neither falling to the floor nor ascending, but melting away.
 Thoroughly frightened at the sight, Mrs. Ogle fell to the floor in a swoon and there remained, as she says, for an hour There was no one in the house but herself, her husband being at his work and her little child on visit to some friends.
 That night when MT. Ogle returned home his wife related to him her dread ful experience. but he discredited her story and said that he would himself carefully watch things. A watch, how ever, was of no avail. for never night was there any sign of the ghostly visi- tor.
 Things went on in their usual way until another week had passed, and again at the same hour, the same noise was heard, and this time Mrs. Ogle de- termined to run from the house, when she was arrested by her little girl, who ran screaming from the haunted room. crying that man was there on chair. Glancing behind her she was more than ever frightened to witness her most unwelcome visitor standing ol a chair with rope around his neck. Suddenly kicking the chair from under him, he

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

Robbed on the highway boldly, Robbed in a ruthless way; Robbed without cry or barley. Robbed in the open dayl This remember only:
 A strange and subtle spell. A glance like summer lightning And voice like silver bell 'Six feet" strong and stalwart, Captured by the five feet oue:, Bound by the thether finer Than ever spider spunl My captor wore a bonnet Misty and blue and small: Outside 1t, rose or feather, l cannot tell at all. But pearls and stars and roses And curling rings of gold Were somewhere 'twixt the bonnet And throat-tic's silken fold.
