Take Care of the Pennies.
the Editor of the Press:

To the Editor of the Press:
While waiting yesterday at one of the
Forest City Steamboat Company's
wharves, l became much interested in
watching the rapid movements of a
young woman who was removing the
pennies from weighing machine which
stood near by. Seeing my look of inter
est, she said: II have the care of all these
weighing machines throughout the coun-
try, with the single exception of Bos-
ton. There are about 1900 of them /
visit them once a month, collecting
moneys and making any necessary re-
pairs. go from Vanceboro on the East
ern coast to the shores of Delaware
Bay" AS she spoke she opened her
travelling bag and showed me the results
of her forenoon's work. THERE'S pennies
and pennies, seemingly by the thousands,
sight to incline every child in Portland
to break the last commandment.
She had just taken about 900 from the
machine alluded to. The four machines
in the Union Station average about $18
month, and these she told me were but

Apnreciated Afterward.

Some years ago an Englishman was
ascending a small and easy peak of the
Alps in company with famous Ober-
land guide. Part Of their course lay
over snow field sinking gradually on
one side, and ended sharply by precl-
pice ON the other.
The two men were walking along not
far from the edge of this precipice when
the Englishman, thinking that an easier
path might be made by going nearer the
edge, diverged little from his compan-
ions track. To his surprise the guide
Immediately caught hold of him and
pulled him back with more vigor than
ceremony, nearly throwing him down
in the operation.
Wrathful and half inclined to return
the compliment, the Englishman re-
monstrated. The guides only answer
was to point to small crack, apparent
snow, which ran for some distance par
allel to the edge of the precipice and
about fifteen feet from it.
The traveller was not satisfied, but
was too wise to spend time in dispute
while desired summit was still some
distance above him. They went on their
way, gained the top, and the travellers
equanimity was restored by splendid
view.
When on the descent the scene of the
mornings unpleasantness was reached,
the guide pointed to the little crack in
the snow, which had grown perceptibly
wider.
ssThis," he said, .smarks the place
where the true snow field ends. feel
certain that the ice from here to the
edge is nothing but an unsupported cor
nice hanging over the tremendous preci-
pice beneath. 1t might possibly have
borne your weight in the early morning,
though I don't think it would. AS to
what it will bear now that powerful
sun has been on it for some time--why,
let us see"
With that he struck the snow on the
farther side of the crack with his ak.
A huge mass, twenty or thirty feet long,
at once broke away and went roaring
down the cliff.
The Englishman shivered to think
how near he had come, even on an easy
mountain and in smiling weather, to
going down the precipice in just such
an avalanche. Youths Companion.

John G.. Whittier was the first secre-
tary of the Amesbury & Salisbury Agri-
cultural Society in 1856, and the society
at its last meeting passed appropriate
resolutions.
Rev. DR.. E. A. Bridger, a Congregation
al minister, settled at Jennings, La, was
last Sunday cowhided in his pulpit at the
close of the service for having asserted
publicly that the women of that village
were not virtuous.
Mr.. Curtis's lecture on slavery in Phil
adelphia just before the war, at meet
ing which mob tried to break up, is
freshly described in a letter to the Phila-
delphia Ledger by Isaac II. Clothier,
who, with another man, was instrument
tai in arranging for the address. In fact,
Wendell Phillips's lecture a month be-
fore had also been secured by these then
young men; but the execution of John
Brown about fortnight before Mr.. Cur
tbs spoke had wrought the public up to a
high pitch of excitement. Mob violence
was threatened, but the mayor provided
800 policemen and was present in person;
and Mr.. Curtis, being duly warned, de-
termined to go ahead. There was riot
inside and outside after he began; but
the police subdued it sufficiently for Mr..
Curtis to continue, and the sweet, gentle,
but courageous orator did continue to
the end of his discourse.
Renan, author of LA Vie de Jesus"
is great lover of animals, and looks for
a paradise where they shall abound. To
congenial visitors he will tell no end of
stories of the sagacity of cats and dogs
and birds. When he leaves Paris for the
summer he takes with him to Brittany
or whatever quarter of France he visits
lot of these pets, whose individuality
he studies as enthusiastically as fond
parent does his children.
The famous tenor, Sims Reeves, who
finally left the lyric stage Several weeks
ago to become music professor in Lon
don, is about seventy years of age. For
nearly half century following his APP
pearance of the gypsy boy in ''Guy Man
nering" he remained public favorite,
attaining his greatest successes in orato-
tios and other sacred music. Mr.. Reeves
is the son of a church organist in a Kent
ish town, and SO early was his talent for
music manifested that at fourteen he be-
came the organist and choir master of
the village church. His long career be-
fore the public has left him possessed of
a modest but sufficient fortune.

1t seems the so-called ''listing bill''
figured in the election for representatives
in Somerset county, a grange of the Pat
rons of Husbandry having sent to all the
candidates circular, which they were
asked to sign and which pledged them to
the support of the 'listing bill and tax
reform" One candidate who replied
that he was in favor of tax reform, but
was not sufficiently familiar with the
listing system to answer in regard to that.
found himself left on election day, and
he evidently thinks the reason was hi s
failure to pledge himself to the listing
system. OF course an individual or an
organization has perfect right TO ask
the opinions of candidates and to seek to
pledge them to certain measures, and to
vote against them if their opinions are
not satisfactory. But we believe it is
bad policy to undertake to pledge repre-
sentatives in advance to any particular
measure of tax reform, for the reason
that no measure of that sort yet offered
is free from serious objections. The list
ing system appears to some people to
embody everything that is desirable in
the way of tax reform. But where the
listing system has been tried for many
years it has been found sadly wanting.
Indeed the weight of testimony from
these places is that it has increased the
inequalities it was meant to cure, and as
a tax reform measure has been a great
fai1ura

The New York Recorder publishes all
the, figures on which Commissioner
Peck's congratulations as to the condi-
zion of business in New York were based.
The public have now chance to see for
themselves whether these generalizations
were justified or not. Of course the
Democratic committee will now proceed
against the Recorder for conniving with
Commissioner P eek to represent the
country as prosperous, to the great dam
age of the Democratic party.

The Argus's Shoe conundrum.

To the Editor of the Press
Let us state the Argus shoe conun-
drum this way: The Democratic idea
of business. A. wants pair of shoes
and he sends his $500 to London and
buys them. The shoes are worn out and
there are no shoes and no $500 in the
country. The country is $500 poorer, and
BIS workmen have lost $500 worth of
time because A. did not give B. the order.

Col. Tracy, who is connected with the
literary bureau at the New York Demo-
cratic headquarters, referring to the eff
forts to conciliate Senator Hill, says:
Eve have been obliged to pat him on the
back SO as to make him feel good. He's
been feeling very sore, you know; every
body knows it. We've rubbed the fur
down the right way and soothed him,
but want to say that Hill couldn't be
elected constable in his own town if he
ran again for Office. Everybody knows
that A few mplimentary illusions
to Hill of this kind may render it neces-
sary to do some more fur smoothing.

Though Hill has again publicly de-
clared that he is Democrat, Mr.. Cleve-
lands friends are not quite sure now
whether he intends to help Cleveland or
hurt him. This uncertainty is reflected
in the Mugwump organs, some of which
are quite eulogistic of Hill and his
speech, while others pass him by in
silence
