10. SATURDAY. DECEMBER 10. 1892.
A I.ucky Clerk.

Half o century ago a clerk In New
York city was wont to take down the
shutters Of the store AT precisely Q o'clock
in the morning. While he WAS taking
them down, rain or shine, certain old
gentleman almost always passed by on
his way TO his place Of business. The
old gentleman smiled SO benignantly
upon the young man that hearty and
familiar good morning" became nat
ural to both.
Month after month this mutual greet
ing continued, until one morning the old
gentleman was missed and he never APP
peared again. He was dead. Not long
afterward the enterprising and faithful
clerk was waited upon by the admins
traitor of the old mans estate and i'm
formed that his store and stock Of goods
had been willed to him.
Attracted by the YOU rs promptness
and fidelity. the old gentleman had in.
quired into his. character and circum.
stances and was satisfied that he could
leave his property to no one 80 likely tc
make good use Of it as the clerk who
took down the shutters at just 0 o'clock
summer aud winter.
Through this legacy the clerk was in
troduced into a profitable business a
once and he afterward became one O
the most wealthy. benevolent and re
spected merchants of the city.-Youthi

A xrn,rilaani., Aboard.

There was very mad conductor ON
the eastbound train the other night"
said John ID. Paterson, Kansas City
man. THE car was crowded, and
shared my seat with St. Louis drum
mer. who was bent ON having a good
time at the expense Of his fellow pas
sengers. As the conductor came along
dog under our seat began to snarl
viciously. The conductor looked hard
at the drummer. No dogs allowed in
the coaches; take him into the baggage
car, he said. Not my dog replied the
drummer, as he made vicious kick.
The eur went bowling under the seats
the full length If the car The passen-
gers became interested. The conductor,
porter and brakeman made search for
him. lie continued 10 run aud howl.
The passengers joined in the search, but
no dog could be found, and the quest
was finally given mp.
Just as the passengers had settled
into a doze the dog set mp heart
breaking. ear piercing howl. The
search was renewed. but without suc-
cess As we pulled into Bunker Hill the
dog got under the wheels, and his death
song was something appalling the
conductor was oyerjoyed. He got cff
and looked for fragments Of the dog.
The drummer had alighted. and as the
conductor called all aboard, he put
down his grips and filled that train from
engine to sleeper with dog fights. He
was yentriloquist. The conductor was
so mad that he forgot to take up tickets
for forty miles. ST, Louis Globe Dem

gonyIets of Ab,.ninia.

In Abyssinia political offenders and
obstructionists are arrested. chained
and placed on the small table land OF
Abba Salama, high. rocky and precip-
itous mountain about thirty miles from
Adowa. So sheer and steep are its
sides that the prisoners are drawn up
by ropes. Their chance of escaping Ia
impossible. unless they run the risk of
dashing themselves into eternity on the
rocks below. On this lonely height
there is soil on which they may grow
grain. and there are wells with good
water There Is no speaker to keep or
der, and they may, If they choose, abuse
the prime ministers and crowned heads
10 their hearts content. but they return
no more to the ways of the world
