The late p. 7. Barnum, the great show,
man, brought jenny Lind to this country
and she was the first really great singer that
came here, although many Others have
come since, and we have now some Ameri
can singers who have become famous. Mr.
Barnum, too, for many years exhibited
Tom Thumb, and he was the first noted
midget ever seen in this country. His real
name was Charles Stratton. He is now
dead. For a long time Mr.. Barnum had
men in every part of the world capturing
wild animals and hunting for strange and
curious things. He it was who introduced
to this country Jumbo, the largest tame
elephant in the world, the famous white oil
sacred elephant, wild men from the islands
of the Pacific, large serpents and wild ami
mails of all sorts. He was the first one tc
capture whale alive and bring him &c
New York and exhibit him in a large tank
The whale was burned up in fire which
consumed the building.

THE SOCIETY coAoHER.
The society coacher is an important
factor In Fifth avenue life. The one of
whom l have personal knowledge is q
bright young woman who supports hor-
self and mother and derives q handsome
income from her so called profession.
The coacher must have a well' stored
mind, fluent tongue and the gift of i'm
parting knowledge. She must read the
daily papers and keep abreast OF the times
and be able to discuss any subject, from
any standpoint; she must be rich in anec-
dote and in short be an accomplished,
versatile woman.
The coacher goes from house TO house,
giving private lessons and no one is Bup'
posed to know that any one else known it,
She will tell her pupil about the latest
novel and the most approved views to ex'
press about il; she will enlichten her on
any desired subject and give her few
pertinent points.
If the coacher's pupil belongs to q
literary society aud Browning is the sub.
ect, she will post her on Browning and
sivt her points about his ambiguity and
tre flCw of the over.Boul.
n fact she thinks, reads and feels, and
all her pupils have to do Is to tax their al
legged minds long enough to digest some

Mrs. Mink md Her Family.

One day my brother and i were wander
ing along the banks of the Platte river in
the Rocky mountains, when we came upon
a pretty sight. Just under rock sat n
beautiful brown animal with very long
tail, and before her on the sand were sew
eral smaller brown creatures having fine
game of play. The mother was as large as
a hare, but very long and narrow in shape,
and her children were exactly like her,
though very much smaller. AS we watched
them play in the sunshine we decided that
these were the Masters and Misses Mink,
and that the pretty, soft creature who sat
behind was Mrs. Mink. The family did not
seem to notice us, but rolled and tumbled
over each other just as children do on a
grassy lawn.
The minks are part Of the marten family.
Some of their cousins are called sables and
some ermines, and the fur of both is very
valuable. All the marten tribe wear two
fur coats, one over the other. The under
one is very short and woolly and sticks
quite close to the skin, keeping its owner
warm even when in the water. The out
side coat has long glossy hairs, which
throws of rain Just as the thatch does
from the roof of house.
Most boys and girls like to bathe in the
sea or in n river, but this entails good
deal Of trouble in the way of dressing and
undressing. The little minks. however,
can spend as much time in the water as
they like in their cozy fur dresses and have
only to give themselves a shake to be az
warm and comfortable as possible. They
live on fish and have great fun in catching
then. Now and then Especial dainty comes
in their way, if they are clever enough to
pounce upon it, in the shape of good fat
frog or a nice sleek lizard.

TO build really good house, and it is a
waste Of money TO invest it in cheap, film
sy affair. But there is a happy medium
between the two extremes which is quite
safe to choose. Nothing is easier than to
make expensive mistakes in building n
house. A common error among people Of
moderate or limited means is in building
too large, when n small, cozy house would
be more comfortable and suitable in every
way.
1t is not the cost of the building alone
which must be considered, but the decorat-
ing and furnishing, heating lighting and
general expenses of keeping the house in
proper conslition in total. These are posi-
tive facts which assert themselves Many
instances could be mentioned where people
in their ambition to own large house, so
that they could entertain ard make n great
display, have found themselves struggling
for years, carrying a heavy mortgage, and
at last through sickness or misfortune have
failed to meet the payments and lost every
thing, while the money which has been ex-
pended in interest and foolish expenses
would easily have paid for n small house.
Here is q suggestion for "a cozy, comfort
able dwelling suitable for the country or
suburbs of a city. 1t is snug and low enough
for prairie country and has quite enough
veranda space for southern home and
would not be out Of place in the northern
states 1t is a pleasing arrangement of
rooms and has the accommodations of a
more pretentious house. II has many good
features. A handsome porch protects the
main entrance and makes q vestibule un-
necessary. The staircase hall is quite large
enough for a sitting room.

coNeREssMsN AND REPORTERS.

Mrs. Galpin, the first woman to Sc
cure admittance to the reporters
gallery of the United States Congress
read paper at the Chicago press con-
vention on the advantages of men over
women as Congressional news
gatherers.
AS women have not begun to smoke
they cannot get the manly gossip that
doHts from the cigars in the smoking
room and as they have not begun To
drink, they cannot loosen the Congress
sional tongue by social drink. And
worst of all "the Congressman will
flirt," which, of course, interferes with
the reporters natural flow of spirits.
Clearly, woman to do her Congress
sional reportorial work must learn TO
smoke, drink and flirt; or, better, per-
haps, she must secure representation
Of her own sex in Congress, who can get
along without smoking, drinking, or
flirting, and then her occupation will
not be so difficult and solitary.
Imagine Lucy Stone smoking, OF
Francis Willard drinking, or Susan b
Anthony flirting with the reporters
when they go about gathering news.

MELANCHOLY.
A HIGHLY ESTEEMED YOUNG MAN TAKES
HIS OWN LIFE.

William Corl Sends Bullet Crashin
Through His Brain, While Suffering
With a Fit Of Temporary Insanity.
William Corl. residing at No. 240 South
Plum street, shot himself through the Eight
side of the head Saturday morning. The
victim of the unfortunate circumstance
lived several hours after the bullet went
crashing into his brain, Il was sad finale
to the life of q man who was loved by
many and who has led an exemplary and
cheerful life. His rash act was a fearful
blow TO his aged parents and the commu'
nifty in general.
William Corl was twenty.six years of
age, the son of Mr.. and MRS. Henry Corl,
esteemed by everybody. He was hesd :.
miller for George G. Harvey and engaged
at work till Friday evening when the mill
closed. Friday night he retired at his
usual hour anu passed the night with his
brother Harry. AT an early hour this
morning Harry arose, went downstairs and
with his father walked out into the yard
and entered the barn, A few minutes
later they heard loud report and both
ran into the house. Mrs. Corl,the mother
of William, and her two younger sons
were in rooms below, and they also heard
loud report and sudden thUd on the
hoor above them. Harry proceeded the
other boys upstairs where he saw his elder
brother lying upon the floor. He shook
him but there were no signs of conscious
ness. A wound above the right ear and q
big blood spot where Corl's head Iay,upon
the floor, told the sad tale. Henry Corl
followed his son upstairs soon after and a
pillow was put under the victinn's head
and Drs. e. G. Myers and James Fraun
felter were summoned. Cori was picked
Sp and placed upon a bed where he re-
tanned lie several hours.
Just what led Corl to COM
init the terrible deed cannos
be- definitely learned. About one year
ago he suffered from serious attack o;
la grippe. The past week he appeared To
be somewhat melancholy and since
Wednesday he had complained of severe
pain in his head. There were no notes
or any letters of any kind left by him
which would show cause for bis act.
Among his frieuds the deceased has
always been held in the higheBt esteem.
He was an industrious man and his death
was sad blow.

Art In Architecture,

Every building that is erected intercepts
the air we breathe, the sunlight which IL
Eliminates us, and covers a portion of the
earth upon which wepass our lives. Shall
the light of the heavens, the charm Of the
country and all the beauties of nature be
hidden from us without our being offered
in exchange some ether beauty
Certainly not. We have a right to de-
mand that those who build houses shall
make them beautiful. If no other reason,
politeness alone would require that we
should compensate our fellows for the ad-
vantages Of which they have been deprived.
The displeasure which an imperfect de-
sign causes is both seen and felt 1t Is a
vague sentiment not easily defined, yet
which lies at the bottom of the universal
consciousness. 1t is not every spectator
who can give reason for the defect which
offends him, from the want of technical
knowledge. To be attractive, building
must be suitable and appropriate TO the
purposes for which it is designed, as we'll AS
having its essential parts properly proper
toned and its rooms we'll arranged. 1t is
not good art TO design a dwelling house
which in appearance might be mistaken
for n church and vice versa,

FIRST STORY.

The principal feature Of this room is the
handsome staircase, which IS broken by
broad landings placed so as to give the best
effect. From the hall you may enter the
parlor through a sliding door, or the dining
room through an ordinary swing door. The
dining room and parlor are separated by
sliding doors in the usual way. There is a
neat corner fireplace in both dining room
and parlor, and one chimney serves for
these rooms and the kitchen. The dining
room communicates with the kitchen
through the pantry. A broad veranda eX-
tends around three sides of the parlor wing,
and in addition to the protection it affords
serves as a most delightful plece to sit in
summer evenings.
In the second story, in addition TO the
hail. there are three large chambers with
closets IN each. The chamber above the
kitchen wing is quite large enough TO take
off space for bathroom if desired. The
building is sheathed and papered in the
usual way and shingled on the sides and
roofs. Shingles cost more than clapboards,
but are more durable and make house
much warmer All the exterior finish is Of
white pine.
The roof is painted slate color and the
body of the building light brown, with
trimmings several shades darker. The
walls and ceilings inside are plRstered in
the usual way. The floors throughout are
of yellow pine. All woodwork in the first
story except the pantry and closet shelves
is of kiln dried oak filed with coat of
wood filler and finished with two coats Of
varnish rubbed smooth.

The big fellow on the right is the male
bee He does, no work. He cannot even
get his own food, but has to be fed by the
others. These bees are called drones. They
are permitted 20 remain until the young
bees are Matched, and then they are driven
out of the hive. The drones cannot sting
The little bee on the left is the one that
does all the work. 1t is neither male nor
female. 1t makes the comb and collects all
the honey and does all the fighting. In the
comb is built one large cell in which TO
hatch new young queen. When it is
grown, it flies out, and all the other young
ones follow it and make new swarm.
They all fly away TO find a now home and
light wherever the young queen lights.
Bees do not seem to hear veIy well, but
their sense of smell is very acute.

HIS OWN FAULT.
A Goal Miner Dies From In

An investigation was made by Coroner
Conklin Thursday into the deatn OF Fred.
Snyder. the man who died at Osnaburgh
March 25, from severe injuries received
in q coal mine.
Coroner Conklin made the investigation
under the instructions of Assistant Deputy
Inspector of Minea Jones, OF North Law
renee. Snyder was employed in coal
mine located about two miles south OF
Osnaburgh, under Superintendent j. L.
Phillips. Prior to and at that time u
printed copy of rules had
been conspicuously displayed in the
mine house on which was
inscribed the warning that much danger

importance and was stringently enforced

superintendent. II appears that Snyder

adopted this way OF leaving the mine, ,and
on the evening of March %, he stepped
into a car to go outside. Again the men

who was slowly pulling the cart along
started out. The car had only proceeded
a short distance when Snyder, IL would
appear, lifted up his head and II came In
contact with a projection OF the roof. He
sustained serious injuries about the head
and on March % he died from brain

case leads that official to render the opin-
ion that no one was 70 blame but Snyder
