How a Widow Made Use of What sh
Heard Railroad Directors Saw,

How . Widow Made Use Of What She
Heard Railroad Directors Say.
A few years ago q widow and her
daughter were occupying n section in q
Pullman sleeper on the Missouri Pacific
railroad. The section next to this lady
happened TO be occupied by couple of
the directors of that railroad. The par
tition between the two sections was SO
thin that it was not difficult for a con-
versation carried on in one section to be
heard in the other. The lady traveller
heard the two directors discussing plan
of consolidation whereby the stock of the
Missouri Pacific was bound to be greatly
enhanced in value.
1t was then worth but or cents ON
the dollar. She was on her return trip
to her home in Hartford. The CONVEX
sation of the two directors preyed on her
mind. She revolved it over and over
again until her home was reached, about
which time So 900 note due her was re-
deemed. She sent for her attorney, de-
tailed to him the conversation she had
heard and said she was almost resolved
to invest the s. 900 in Missouri Pacific.
The attorney, installing her announced
resolution for irony, laughed, but the
woman of wealth persisted.
1T is but s., 0O0," she said. land if
lose 1 shall have just as much to eat as l
have always had and just as much to
wear. If the plans betrayed by these
two directors work out, l shall make q
good deal of money buying Missouri Pa
cific."
The attorney obeyed the instructions
of his client, invested the s. 200, and in
less than a month the proposed CONSOLE
dation was consummated, and the Hart
ford widow realized for her s., 900 invest
ment $3.50 900. At the first blush this in
cident is set down as proof of luck.
1t was simply an unexpected exhibit
ton of what in Wall street vernacular is
termed nerve" on the part of a quick
cared and quicker witted woman. Not
one person in 10000 would have given
any heed to the conversation referred to,
and not one of n thousand who might
have heard and needed and who hap
peued to have the money, as the widow
had it, would have dared invest it.
These incidents and illustrations might
be expanded until volumes We're filled.
The evidence would be cumulative that
eyes and ears and brain make what
the thoughtless term luck.-Cncinnati

THE MAIDEN FAIR.

1t isn't always nervousness that makes a
girl bite her lips. Sometimes-very often,
in fact-she does it to give them nice
color
Nobody has ever yet discovered a girl
with a small waist who didn't think She
could have it smaller without feeling un-
comfortable.
Some girls take first class happiness in
having a burned finger, or cold sore, or
sprained ankle, because it is so comforting
to receive sympathy.
When girl is ill, she says that she'd
give everything she owns to be well, and
when she is well she scolds and frets be
cause she can have only one new hat.
When you see a girl with her hair all
musSed up you must not think she hasn't
combed it. 1t takes her many weary mo
ments to fix 1t in that tangled fashion.
Whenever one girl tells another girl
about her troubles with her dressmaker,
the other girl has a tale of woe twice as long
and twice rs narrowing to tell in return.
It's very easy matter to tell whether
girl is expecting man or girl caller. If
a man is coming, she looks in a mirror ev-
cry few moments. If it's girl she doesn't

CONCERNING the prospect for an income
tax it is understood that nine democratic
members of the committee on ways and
means are for such tax. These are
the southern members and Bynum of In
diana. and Whiting of Michigan. The six
republican members oppose it rs well as
Stevens of Massachusetts, and Cochnne f
New York, SO a majority report in favor
of the scheme may be expected. The
committee expects that it will be assaulted
on the floor of the house when the bill is
under discussion; but it is assured that the
south will be nearly solid and that the
measure will secure enough votes among
the western democrats to carry it through

At the beginning of the herring season
the crew all try to seize the herring first
on board, to see if it be male or female.
If it is q male, their fishing may be ex-
pected to be a poor one; if a female, a
good one. Sometimes, however, the
skipper secures it and hides it away, salt
ing it and laying it past for the season.
The boat must not be turned against the
sun. Certain animals considered of ill
omen must not be spoken of i'll the boat,
and ministers in this respect occupy the
same place as rabbits, hares and pigs.
Fishermen do not like to lend anything
to neighboring boat, lest their luck
should go with it. If they lend a match,
they will secretly if possible

to retain their luck. Their dislike to
have anything stolen is increased by the
fear that the thief may have stolen their
luck with it. To ask the question,

stroying all his chances for that time.

phrases in writing business letters A
short time ago he had to write letter to
a client in neighboring city regarding
an important lawsuit that was to come

was highly essential TO his case. In writ

In closing his letter he signed himself
thus: John Langdon, Address ut supra. "

The result of yesterdays elections was
not unexpected by democrats. 4 combi-
nation of circumstances made democratic
success Mt this time an impossibitity. First
of all, it is universally conceded that bad
times are bad thing for the party in
power Between the election of a demo-
cratic president and the control of both
houses of congress by the democrats and
the present dullness there is absolutely no
connection. The panic came almost he
fore President Cleveland had taken up the
reinS of government. 1t mattered not that
the democrsts had no hand in shaping the
legislation that caused the financial strin-
gency and closed the doors of the mills, it
happened to be the party in power when
election day came around and history
simply repeats itself: Bad times are bad
for the party in power.
But there were other elements, also, that
helped to swell the republican majorities
in some of the states. In New York the
overthrow was largely due to local causes,
and so 1t was in New Jersey. Massa-
chusetts has always been a hide-bound re-
publican state. although the magnetism
and personal popularity of William E.
Russell gave the state a democratic gov
erncr four years. In Iowa Horace
Boies. the democratic governor. is danger
ously ill. This undoubtedly had much to
do with the large majority cast against
him. Uncle Horace. like Russell in
Massachusetts,. carried the state by his
personal popularity. Many voters un-
doubtedly voted against Boies because Of
the possibility that he might not be able to
take his seat. These were some of the
c fuses that conspired against democratic
success.
The result, however, will not deter the
democrats in congress from doing their
duty. Tariff reform must come. The
Mckinley bill. that unique monstrosity,
which Is the peculiar pet of the calamity
| no Wing editors must so.
