ed and now the nation, through it's SUI
preme legislature, says 1.-The Chinese
must co.
Dennis Kearney was born i'll Oakmont,
County Cork, Ireland, went to sea when
small boy, reached New York as q
sailor at the age of II, and at 10 was cap
tain of q sailing vessel. Evidently such
man had goo1 deal i'll him. His edu-
cation was such as he could acquire
while at sea, his strong point being a
marvellous command of vituperative
rhetoric. His ideas of English snav be
judged from his favorite expression,
''lecherous bondholders." Hcpronounced
1t "leechero,ts" and took it to mean hav-
ing the nature of lcech.
In 1877 he led III organizing the Work
ingmen's party, which carried the state a
year or two later and embodied its views
III that peculiar organic law Familiarity
known as the "Denis Kearney consti-
tuition" He is far from attractive in
personal appearance and has very little
of what is called magnetism, but he
talks to plain people i'll way they un-
derstand, not always sparing profanity.
In July, 1878, he opened in Boston his
famous eastern campaign. After max
ing many addresses in various cities he
returned to San Francisco and once
more became 1.-The agitator of the sand
lots"
But his second campaign was an ap-
parent failure. and III 1880 the Working
men deposed him from the presidency
of their organization. IN 1888 he went
to New York. but the workingmen voted
against having him speak for them. 1t
was i'll 1865 that he arrived in San Fran
cisco as captain of a sailing vessel and
soon after became a drayman, and in
1855 it was reported that he was again Il
drayman and silent in politics. But in
1883 he was i'll Washington working for
the passage of the Chinese exclusion bill,
and now it appears that he is again a
power in San Francisco. Be his faults
as many and as great as is charged, still
he must be credited or charged with Civ
ing the initial impulse TO the movement
which has resulted in excluding the Chi
neSe.

Napoleon and IL son of that Pierre Bona

Peter. as that Pierre was called by Amer

taller than his great-uncle, the famous
Corsican. and made u favorable impress
sion on all he met in America. He
crossed the continent, went up to Brit

Winnipeg and Chicago.
In New York and Chicago alike Prince
Roland took a deep interest in social
studies. He read very interesting pa

short address on the Laps, among whom
he had Travelled two months. He also

James Parton would not do hasty
work. He was methodical, patient, reg
ular and persistent, and in time he had
become so able TO control his mind that
it responded TO his via like the body to
his mind. He did not tax himself 10
work out great feats within a short time,
or if he was hard pressed he gave him
self rest as soon as the strain was over.
He did not burn midnight oil, neither
did he resort TO wine or tobacco as stim-
ulants to his brain. He was one Of the
most temperate men have ever known.
He kept his faculties every day as near
as he could at their best, and life flowed
on from day TO day with an evenness and
quietness that made his home life not
only pleasant for others, but beautiful in
itself
His habits were to breakfast about
half past z, then TO work in his garden
in the summer for an hour, and then to
shut himself in his worlroom, where he
could be sure 10 be undisturbed until
half past 10. Then he dined, and after
that, in his later years, took a nap. Then
he was ready for callers or visits to
friends, or for the reading which might
be required for the work of the next day.
After tea he was usually the companion
of his family. hearing his wife or niece
reed aloud some book or magazine, and
this was his daily round, unless broken
in upon, month after month, year in and
year out lie did not often go to Boston
or New York or seek large number of
literary acquaintances, and yet he was
never unsocial. He was the light and
life of two clubs in Newburyport, and he
was extremely fond of a good square
talk, in which he was fired up to his ut
most.-Rev. }. II. Ward in New Eng

troughs filled with well water by means of

that fills this trough. Every morning he
goes regularly Co his task While visiting
a friend at his flne residence in India saw
n large elephant engaged in pumping such

In passing noticed that one Of the two
tree trunks which supported the trough at
either end had rolled from It's place so that
the trough, still elevated at one extremity.
would begin 20 empty itself as soon as the
water reached the level Of the top at the
other end, which lay on the ground.

Finally seeing that the water continued

began to consider the phenomenon. Ho
seemed to find il difficult TO explain. Three
times he returned TO his pumping, and
three times he examined the trough. | was

what would be done.
Soon lively tapping Of his ears indicated

She sent.

A very pretty girl stepped into a crowd
ed car on the College avenue line. She
belonged in the high school and wasn't
in the habit Of standing mp. The car was
full. but everybody else had seat. Seven
men held down the most available ones,
and. strange to relate, not one of them
appeared to be aware that a young wom-
IN was compelled to stand.
The pretty girl, with quick glance Of
disgust about the car. took in the situa-
tion and blushed somewhat Indignantly.
She had long distance 60 ride and
couldn't cling gracefully to a strap. Two
squares had been Travelled when an idea
took possession of her classical mind.
Out came the miniature purse from the
embroidered silk reticule. and the little
hands fumbled among few silver coins.
A nickel dropped to the floor and rolled
to the Ear end of the car. This is part of
The plan. but it is executed dexterously,
and the passengers pity her. She blushcd
and murmured. How awkward of me.
IUnsteadily she started after the nickel,
but seven men intercepted the movement
and rushed to the point, as the artful
maiden dropped into a comfortable seat
with a sigh and deftly hid roguish smile.

Tho oue.,lon of Food and Drink.

Fancy being confronted with the ques-
ton. What kind of food and drink do
you prefer and only half of rather
narrow page in which to inscribe the an
swer. How could one answer such a
question in such a spaceg for ones ideas
ns to food and drink vary so much with
the hours Of the day Morning, tea or
coffee very likely, with breakfast bacon
or Kidneys or fried sole or plain boiled
eggs. But who wants boiled eggs and
coffee at his luncheony Then, again, dry
champagne is generally a favorite drink
nc dinner but we DO not usually care for
It at luncheon, and late at night most
men have a preference for whisky and
soda and would not care in the least for
Pommery or Roederer. Then a man may
have. a strong liking for oysters. and also
for olives. and how is he to get in all
bis opinions ON these various questionso Of
