A Friend In Need.

"Joe Jefferson" said an old thea
ter-goer, "had taken a lady to a
restaurant, and when he put his
hand in his pocket to pay his bill
he didn't feela penny. Heexplained
his position to the cashier, but the
cashier didn't know him The per-
spiration began to ooze, when gen.
tleman stepped up, laid $40 bill
on the desk and said: I know you,
sir; allow me to SETTLE Jefferson
was profuse in his thanks, and,
when near the door, said: you
must give me your name and ad-
dress, sir, in order that I may call
around tomorrow and SETTLE
Never mind that said the stranger,
with smile; that bill was a coun-
terfeit, and I got SIT in change"
If this story is not to be played in
advance of "Lend Me Five Shil-
lings," the relator should go lightly
in telling it for truth.-St. Louis

Modern Quaker Vernacular.

A lady to whom slang is seldom
an agreeable sound confesses that
she was greatly amused by an out
break of it the other day in very
unexpected quarter. She was pres
ent at a house where the people are
Quakers by descent. There were
some relatives at the house, two
young ladies who have been brought
up to use Quaker "thees," but not.
it seems, to avoid all the worlds
notions, for presently one of these
demure young Quakeresses broke
out to her cousin:
"Ohl my dear, thee should go to
see our cousin D-'s wedding
gifts-thee should I can't begin
to tell thee about them; they are
too perfectly stunning. Can't thee
60 with me? Why, thee can't con-
ceive them; they are simply bang

the WONDER OF ALASKA.
A Glacier Which Travels Sixty
five Feet or More in q Day.

The Muir glacier, which is tn,
great wonder of Alaska, was doubt
less discovered by Vancouver ir
1874, but Professor John Muir was
the first to describe it. Muir Inlet
at the head of Glacier Bay, is the
termination of this great 'river Of
ice." The wall of blue ice is there
a mile long and about four hun.
dred feet high. It is worn into
towers, castles and caverns, and is
continually discharging fragments
from the size of a paving stone
to that of Cologne Cathedral. These
falling into the sea cast up the spray
for hundreds of feet into the air,
and send forth waves which dash
upon the shores and echo like thun-
der among the mountains. The
Muir glacier is really sea of ice,
with numerous branches in the
valley, any one of which is as large
as the Conner or Aletsch glacer of
Switzerland.
1t is, according to S. P. Baldwin,
a recent visitor, as large as all the
Alpine glaciers in one, being 1900
square miles in area. The ice is
1000 feet thick at the mouth in
Muir Inlet, and the glacier is esti-
mated to comprise as much water
as Lake Erie. It discharges n, ,O0O,-
100000 cubic feet of ice as icebergs
and 175,OOO,OOO,OOO feet of water
by melting every year. The center
of the glacier, where the motion is
quickest, is so rough and broken
into crevasses that it is considered
impossible. The eastern half, how
ever, can be travelled as far as the
neve. Professor Wright has found
the motion at the center to be as
much as sixty-five feet day, where
as that of the Alpine glaciers is
only thirty-three inches or so. AS
much as ninety feet day has been
found in the case of a Greenland
glacier. The Muir glacer has once
much farther into the
Day, and is now receding every
year, while the sources of the ice
supply are failing. = Lancaster,

An Anglo-Saxon Trait.

l sat in the last car on trair
yesterday afternoon with a gentle
man from foreign country. Th'
train was nearing the station which
is the daily limit of its outward
journey. AS it drew up at neigh
boring station, the brakeman called
out the name Of the place at the
top of his voice. Then he took of
the cap which is the badge of the
service, picked up stiff round hat
from somewhere in the corner OF
the car, tucked his cap we'll under
his arm and walked down upon the
platform, and went his way. The
man had gone off duty and made
haste to get off as much of his
railroad clothes as he could.
1t was very simple incident,
and just such a one as l had seen
probably hundreds of times, but
the foreign gentleman watched it
very eagerly, and said "Ah! there
lis an act into which your Anglo
Saxon ideas and institutions are
compressed. It illustrates the es-
sential difference between an Amer
lean or Englishman and French
man or German. That was the most
natural thing to him; it is instinct
i've with you people to honor the
attire of plain citizenship above any
kind of brass buttons or gold-lace,
and, if you have to wear brass but
tons or gold-lace, it is precious
privilege to lay them off. On the
Continent of Europe, now, any man
who has chance to wear uni
form of any kind, no matter if it is
a servants livery, wears it just as
much as he can. Railroad employees
strive to keep their service caps on
there, not to get them off. An
American or English military Off
Ger never wears his uniform except
when he is on duty, or on some very
formal occasion; German or a
French officer wears his when he is
putting his baby to bed. That is
because you honor the simple indi-
vidual above all things. You have
the secret Of freedom in that. You
laugh when I express my admira-
ion for that mans act in clapping
his black hat on his head so quick

ess, and no nation ever really loved

A Telling Rebuke.

j "Ten or twelve years ago / wit
messed the most dramatic situation
of my life in a Philadelphia court
room" said Henry j. Erskine of the
Quaker City to the writer. ut
occurred during the trial of an inn
portant suit involving certain fran
chise rights of the Pennsylvania
Railroad in Philadelphia. Benjamin
Brewster, afterwards Attorney Cen
eral Of the United States, was then
the chief counsel of the Pennsyl-
vania company. Brewster, you
know, had terrible disfguration
of his face from burns, but intel
lectually he was a giant and in de-
pertinent a Chesterfield. So great
was the admiration for the mans
powerful mental parts that one
soon forgot his plainness. He was
extremely sensitive about his mis-
fortune, but never referred to it
himself; nor did any of his thous-
ands of friends ever ask him it's
cause. The trial to which I refer
was bitterly contested affair, and
Brewster at every point got so much
the best of the opposing counsel
that by the time arguments COM
menced his adversary was in a
white heat. In denouncing the
railroad company, this lawyer, with
his voice tremulous with anger, ex-
claimed: This grasping corpor-
alton is as dark, devious and scarf
fed in its methods as is the face
of its chief attorney and henchman,
Benjamin Brewster This violent
outburst of rage and cruel invective
was followed by a breathless still
ness in the crowded courtroom that
was painful. Hundreds of plying
eyes were riveted on the SCARED
face of Brewster. Never before had
any one referred to Mr.. Brewster's
misfortune in such way, or even
in any terms, in his presence.
"Mr. Brewster slowly arose and
said: Your Honor, in all my ca
reer as q lawyer, I have never dealt
in personalities; nor did I ever be-
fore feel called upon to explain the
cause of my physical misfortune,

She Got Rich.

All kinds of stories come from
the National Capital, and here is
one of the most unique and not the
least interesting that is receiving
general circulation. The heroine's
name is not given. Twelve years
ago this lady came poor innocent
girl to Washington and went to
work in the Treasury. To her each
day came the old and battered cur
rency and bank bills, and it was
her business to destroy them; the
destroyed money being supplied
with new bills. Well, this innocent
girl concocted scheme. She be-
gan to cut the good pieces out of
bills before they were given over to
their doom. She cut an ear from
one, an end from another and the
middle from another. From some
bills-and always, I understand,
from q 500 or 81 900 bill-she cut
the figures. Just how she pasted,
sewed or joined these pieces to-
gether no one seems to know. With
all the rest she made frequent, brief
visits to Canada, giving some trivial
good excuse, but, it is assumed now,
to get rid Of her money. It is sup
posed that this ingenious woman
kept up her clipping and money
for years. One day, after
twelve years Of service, she sudden

years. The lady lost her place and
40 effort was ever made to prosecute
her. Whether others were engaged
d the speculation, or she played i
one hand, no one seems clear upon.

sary revelations, once or twice in
words that seemed spoken directly
to him, and these were veritable
music to his ear.
1t was at the end of long ques-
ton to which she had suscinctly
replied that he paused a moment
and studied some of his penciled
memoranda. In reality this was
the commencement of his crucial
tests, and even while he was study
ing and condensing the form he
should present them in, by a reflex
action his mind was condemning
the means and evoking a pity Of
doing the thing at all. However,
as may be surmised, the simple
duty to his client overrode the scru-
pies of his heart; he looked up
suddenly with frown at his own
indecision, and met her direct gaze.
Her eyes were blue as sapphires,
and they were full of tears.
The barrister substituted another
question for the severe one he had
intended to ask. There was the
faintest tremor in her voice as she
replied. She was frightened, per-
haps tired, and the mans heart ex-
panded and went out in pity to her.
How could he scourge this tender
woman, whose lovely face and form
held the imagination captive, and
swayed the senses of her questioner?
One big tear gathered and fell on
her hand. 1t is probable that had

IeAenIHs HORSES TRICKS.
A Horse Never Forgeta, but Patience il
Needed to Make Him Learn.

i It requires an immense amour
of time and patience to teach a hors
the tricks with which he astonishe
an audience. Take, for instance, th
finding of the handkerchief, tina
has always surprised children sine
the first circus took the road.
| First, the horse must be taught t,
bite. To do this the trainer ticklet
the animal on the shoulder. I
made no impression at all appar
emily for nearly half an hour.
At last the horse grew tired of i
and made snap at the hand.
The hand was taken away ant
the tickling began again an instan
later. Another snap and another
ticle, until finally the horse realized
that there was q method in all this
seeming madness, and responded
with a snap directly the hand ap'
preached his shoulder.
Then q handkerchief was intro
duced and more time was consumed
before he could get it through bis
head that he must take it in his
mouth, more time still for him to
understand that he must pick it up
from the ground and then came the
burying of the handkerchief and
the finding of it, which invariably
awakened enthusiasm.
Here the whip comes into play,
but never as an instrument of tor
ture. Mr.. Dockrill believes that
nothing was ever gained by striking
a horse. The whip is used only as
a pointer.
Three or four mounds of sand are
formed and the handkerchief is
buried in one. The whip leads the
horse to all of them in succession
and remains by the last one, and
SO the horse is told that the hand
kerchief is there.
In the same way a horse is taught
to take a silver dollar and even a
live fish from tub of water, but
the time required would break an
ordinary mans heart.
Practically everything is done by
touch. In this pretty stepping that
a horse does when a woman is on
his back every move is directed by
the riders heel on the side, the gen.
tie touch of the whip on the other,
or both.
If he is to walk, rising his feet
high in the air, the rider presses her
heels into his side and attendant
raises one OF his forefeet, urging
hem forward at the same time.
This is repeated time after time,
md time after time, until the horse

las once learned that a certain act
n his part is to be followed by an
unusual and disagreeable act on
be part Of his master.
While, of course, Mr.. Dockrill's

exaggerated, there is no question
