A QUEER WAGER.
An Election Crank Works Year for
 Nothing.

An Election Crank Works 8 Year for
 Nothing.
 "Speaking of strange bets on an election" said Col. Joe Rucker, of Col orado, to crowd at the Laclede, "the one that takes the ribbon over any have ever seen mentioned was bet, lost and paid by an enthusiastic green packer many years ago. One of these enthusiasts at that time, whose view of the political situation was seen through the roseate hued spectacles of a reform organ, was certain that man by the name of Brown would be elected governor of Missouri, and bet everything he had except the clothing upon his back and a young wife. Either his affection for his wife or his know ledge of law prevented his making a wager of her, so as a last bet he wa gered his services for year against five hundred dollars. Of course he lost, and, borrowing few dollars from friend, he sent his wife back ito her folks" in Missouri, while he presented himself to the saloonkeeper in Denver with whom he had made the bet. The latter, moro as a joke than anything else, grub-staked him and sent him out to prospect. The first month small find rewarded his labors, and cupidity then caused the saloonkeeper to insist on the payment of the wager in full. To curtail the narrative, he carried out his wager of years service scrupu- lously and located two more mines, l from which the winner, though now wealthy, is still drawing dividends. Upon fulfllment of his obligation he sent for his wife, and is now employed by one of the street ear companies of Den yer at about fifty dollars a month, and will probably never get above that fig | ure. ."-St Louis Globe-Democrat

IN YELLOWSTONE PARK,

Changes Continually Going On in the Wonderful Natural Curiosities.
 Visitors to the Yellowstone National park in the United States who return after an absence of a year or more are generally surprised by finding that many changes have occurred in the ap- pearance of the colored terraces at the mammoth hot springs. Indeed, such alterations occur sometimes in period of a few weeks. The terraces consist of a number of basins, each set being a few feet lower than its predecessor, and the hot water from the springs at the top of the terraces flows from basin to basin, depositing it's chall1y sediment at the rims, where evaporation is most rapid, and thus slowly building them up. Wherever the flow of water con- tlnues constant for a considerable time the futed edges and side of the basin become beautifully colored. The varie- gated hues are mainly due to vegetable matter, and so if the flow of water ceases these bright colors rapidly fade, leaving the terraces milk white. In a little while the edges and walls of the dry basins begin to crumble, and the most beautiful forms disappear in white dust and chalk-like fragments.
 One of the favorite terraces at the hot springs, called the Minerva terrace, ex- hibits these changes in a marked degree because of it's conspicuous position. Sometimes, owing to failure of the flow of water, the Minerva terrace parts with it's splendid colors and resembles set of fluted basins carved out of snow white marble, but when the water be- gins to run freely again the colo1's re- turn with all their former vividness and beauty. The changes in the flow of the water seem to depend, in part at least, upon conditions prevailing in the heated rocks underlying the wonderful ter races

REAL CHILDREN IN LITERATURE
They Are Crowded Out by the Emiuently
 Proper Children of the Wiseacres.

They Are Crowded Out by the Emiuently
 Proper Children of the Wiseacres.
 The wise mentors in conventional lit erature virtually tell you that child literature wants no real children in it; that the real childs example of defect i've grammar and lack of elegant de- pertinent would furnish to it's little pa trician patrons suggestions very hurtful indeed to their higher morals, tenden- cies and ambitions, writes James Whit comb Riley in the Forum. Then, al- though the general public couldn't for the life of it see why or how, and might even be reminded that it was just such a rowdying child itself, and that it's father-the father of his country-was just such a child that Abraham Lincoln was just such a lovable, lawless child; all-all this argument would not avail in the least, since the elegantly minded purveyors of child literature cannot possibly tolerate the presence of any but the refined children the very proper children - the stu diously thoughtful, poetic children-and these must be kept safe from the contaminat- ing touch of our rough-and-tumblel little fellows in ''hodden gray" with frowzly heads, begrimed but laughing faces, and such awful, awful vulgarities of naturalness, and crimes of simplicity, and brazen faith and trust, and love of life and everybody in it. All other real people are getting into literature; and they not soon be getting lonesome. too?

CURLING IRONS AT SEA.

 pear with Limp Locks.

Women Often Risk Life Rather Than Ap- pear with Limp Locks.
 It is customary to say that modern science has conquered all the dangers of the open sea except that of fog. The New York World declares that those who say so are mistaken. We build ships that can buffet any wave and out ride the most furious gales. But every one of them carries in her saloon a source of danger more threatening than any that tempest brings or the forces of na- ture create. There is always the woman with bang which persists in getting out of curl. That woman provides in advance for the emergency. She arms herself against the danger of appear ing at dinner with unkempt forelocl. She surreptitiously introduces a pair of curling irons and a spirit lamp into her cabin, and spite of placard warnings and peremptory prohibitions she lights the lamp every day before the altar of her devotion. She knows, of course, that every time she does it she imperils the lives of hundreds of human beings. But would you have little matter like that interfere with the essential proc esses of the toilet? Is the woman with bang to be expected to appear with limp locks at the captains table merely that lot of people who are nothing to her may feel safer against a roasting? The purser, when he finds her out, tells her that her act is criminal. But the purser is only man, wholly incapable of feminine points of view. The captain may threaten her with irons if she re- peats the offense, but how is the cap tain to know if she closes her cabin door? And so bangs are curled and lives rislled and ships set on fire occa- sionally, as one ocean liner was recently on the voyage from Liverpool.

CLEVELAND'S CABINET.


The Best Forecast Obtainab1e-W Whitney

 NEW YORK, Dec 23.-The Hon. Don M. Dickinson and Col. Daniel s. Lamont were among MT. Cleveland's visitors yes terday.

 Close friends of MT. Whitney say that it would be a very difficult matter for him to decline MT. Cleveland's invitation to enter the Cabinet, especially as it's Pre- mier
 The best forecast yet obtainable of the Cabinet is as follows:

Old Friends Renew Their Attentions in
 Her Hour of Peril.
 LoNDoN Dec. S3.-Mrs. Lillie Langtry is rather better, and the fever from which she is suffering has subsided sufficiently to allow her to sleep.
 Her servants are kept busy answering the messages of inquiry regarding her, which have been received from many dis tinguished persons, including, it is re- ported, the Prince of Wales, through his private secretary.
 Several cable despatches inquiring about Mrs. Langtry's condition have also been received from America, but their con- tents have not been given to the public.
 Mrs. Langtry's illness has brought back several former admirers, who are display ing by gifts of flowers and otherwise their anxiety for her recovery.
 There is no doubt she is critically i'll, although her friends have strong conf dence that she will recover.

MY NOISY BOY.

LAST YEAR hear him out upon the porch, His feet like mallets falling; hear him now behind the house, Like drunken Sioux squalling. hear him in the kitchen now, He's crawlsd upon the table; To bear annoy from that bad boy do not think I'm able. He now goes charging through the hall, A chair he's draggin ing after; He gives such shrieks of reckless joy As fairly split the rafter. He's plunging now toward my room, I'll have to bar the door, Or else my writing for the day, or course l must give OCT.
 THIS YEAR cannot hear, upon the porch, The chatter of his feet; cannot hear his shouts of joy, Or laughter flowing sweet Icannot hear him in the hall, Though long strive to hear; What would give, my friends, to have Those noisy footsteps near? Oh, could now unbar the doorl Oh, wouldn't it be joy, An inspiration to my pen, To greet my noisy boyl

He converses whenever permitted to do so, in fact, is inclined tc talk too much for his own good. He as. similates his own food and that alone gives him the necessary strength to com. bat the disease and withstand reiapses should they come.
