strest Railway Matters.

The street railway service for the past
few days has been unsatisfactory, for
several reasons. Yesterday there were
but four cars on the loop, and part Of
the time only one in the North End.
Some OF the bodies have been placed on
the new trucks, and they give general
satisfaction.
The new eighty-fve pound rail has
been laid on Jacob street, between
Thirty-ninth and FOrty-thlrd streets.
Yesterday work was commenced on
Eof street, at Thirty-ninth. A big
force OF workmen is employed and good
progresS is being made. The new rail
is heavier than many in use on the big
trunk lines.

..rbe TyroIeau', at the Grand.

MIR. L. s. Wyman and an excellent
company opened at the Grand Opera
House last night TO large and very
well pleased audience. The Tyrolean
is a comedy-drama of the German dia-
lect order, which abounds with numer-
our and startling situations. Mr.,
Wyman proved himself an excellent
singer and comedian, and his whistltng
in the second act was received with a
perfect ovation. The piece is one OF a
different order than anything that
has ever been rendered here In
the German comedy line, and
last night pleased the large audience
present i'm a remarkable manner. The
work OF the little child Jessie in the
first act, and that Of Master Clyde in
the third and fourth acts, is something
verv remarkable. The Tyrolean con-
tinues until Wednesday night at the
Grand Opera House, with the usual
Wednesday matinee.

1t has often been noticed at the begin
ming of January the death is announced
Of a number of prominent men. The
reason is probably found in the fact not
that great men are more prone to die in
January than at any other time of the
year, but that the weather in that month
is unsettled, and consequently hard on
the constitution alike of great and hum
BILE. Great men are only human after
all, and a great man physically weak
ened by hard work or disease is Just as
likely to die from a change of weather
as though he were day laborer.
The mortality tables show that the
month of January and the first month
of exceedingly hot weather in the sum-
mer are more fatal than any other time
of the year, and the great must take
their, chances with other people.-St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.

FROM LUMMI

The entertainment given by the
Lummi Dramatic Club at Sherman
ball on Saturday last was indeed very
interesting. The comic farce entitled
the Virginia Munroe" provoked
much merriment. Paul Clark as Gin
ger did excellently-in fact all In
the cast proved that they had indeed
spent much care in memorizing their
number of selections on his ACCORDION,
and, as usual, they were of the very
best. Ten tableaux were given, one
representing the colored people in 1850
Bound and Fettered," and another
after the proclamation of emancipation
had been issued. The following is the

When Honore de Balzac, the novelist
stated in early life his wish to become G
literary man, his father, who had des
tined him for the bar, was shocked ant
disappointed. Still he gave the boy two
years in which TO prove his fitness for 6
literary life, and Honore was accordingly
installed in an attic near the library
where he proposed TO work.
His mother believed that little hard
ship would soon bring him to his senses,
but the correspondence which he there
upon began with his sister shows that
the man who was afterward to attain
distinction in his chosen work could
afford, as a youth, TO scorn such trifes as
waiting upon himself. In the very first
letter he confded to his sister the news
that he had taken servant. He writes:
HE is named Myself And a bad
bargain he is, truly! Myself is lazy,
clumsy, thoughtless. His master is
hungry or thirsty, and often enough
Myself has neither bread nor water 10
give him; he doesn't even know how to
shield him from the wind which whistles
through the door and window. As soon
as l am awake j ring for Myself, and
he makes my bed. Then he sweeps the
room, and clumsy he is at it.
"'Myselfr
"'Yes, SIR
"Jook at that cobweb with the big
fly buzzing in it till 1 am half giddy with
the noise, and the fluff under the bed,
and the dust under the window panesr
"The lazy beggar gazes at me and
doesn't stir, and yet, in spite of all his
defects, 1 can't get rid of that unintelh-
gent Myselfr
And the same stupid Myself it was
who afterward enriched French litera-
ture with a series of wonderful works.

Number of People Since Adam.

Did you ever make a calculation of
the probable number of people that have
inhabited our globe since the beginning
Of time? No doubt you will say that
such calculations involve q loss Of time,
and are after all barren of results. But
let as take a few minutes time and ap-
proximate, with a certain degree Of
accuracy, the number of souls that have
been ushered into this wicked world
since the time when it was "not good for
Adam to be alone"
At the present time it is believed that
there are 100000, 900 human beings on
the globe; but let us suppose that there
has been but an average Of 900, 900, 900
living at any one time since the crea-
ton. Next, TO give room for any possible
doubt, we will put the average length
of life at fifty years. ct may have been
much longer than that 5000 years ago,
but has been much shorter for the last
1000 years. With the average length
of life as above, We have had two gen
erations of 900,C00,O0O each every CEN
fury for the past 5000 years.
Taking this for granted this globe has
had 66,627, s43, 237 ,075, 2G6 human in
habitants since the beginning of time.
To even bury this vast number the
whole landed surface of the globe, every
inch of it, would have to be dug over 1870
times'-Philadelphia Press.

Mr.. J. p. Blaize, an extensive real

rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks of pneumonia while in the north
ern part of that state during recent
blizzard, says the Saturday Review.
Mr.. Blaize had occasion to drive several
miles during the storm and was so thor
oughly chilled that he was unable to
get warm, and inside Of an hour after
his return he was threatened with a
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr.. Blaize sent to the nearest drug
store and got a bottle of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy, of which he had often
heard, and took number of large
doses. He says the effect was wonder
full and that in a short time he was
breathing quite easily. He kept on
taking the medicine and the next day
was able to come to Des Moines. Mr..
Blaize regards his cure as simply Won
derful. Fifty cent bottles for sale by

Labouchere's Narrow Escape.

Labouchere was in Mexico during the

humanity by secretly giving both bel

rival pretenders in converse. Creeping
close to the canvas he listened, and dis
covered that they had agreed upon a
