An Untauswe Diplomat.

"You know, Nick, SAID his mother,
ga gentleman never asks for things, nc
matter how badly he wants them.
"Why doesn't he?" said Nick, opening
very wide his round four-year-old eyes.
Because it is impolite and greedy.
That is why it annoys me so to have you
ask your Uncle John, whenever he
comes, if he has brought you candy.
Remember, now, you must never do 1t
any more"
But it's my candy,-he says so-ano
he wants me to have 1t.
"Then he will certainly give it to you,
and Won must wait his time for 1t. II 1
ever again here you ask him will not
let YOU have it. So promise me that you
will not. know my little boy wants to
be "A gentleman"
Nick made the promise with very
sober face. He was the normal slnall

trained "upon honor" and felt that a
nromise once made could not be broken.
This is the way he kept it. When oucle

J. r.. pARKE.


A little face at the window
When the lamps flash out in the street
A little pale face waiting
For the coming of welcome feet;
A pressure of baby fingers,
simmer of golden hair,
A little skip through the hallway,
A little trip on the stair
A little chamber of treasures,
Where only the midnight hears
The sound of mothers sobbing,
The dash of mothers tears:
When the day sinks down in darkness,
And all but the soul is still,
When the stars sing soft in the heavens
And the shadows rest ON the HILL
A little pageant passing
Where the daisies and violets bloom
A little home that is empty,
A little graSS-covered tomb
A little season of waiting,
Of weeping and wiping of tears,
Till new star gently rising
Shines over the valley of years.
In the gleam of the morn's awaklng,
When the clouds and the shadows part,
With holier sunlight breaking
Serene on each mothers heart,
She shall smile at the clouds behind her,
The storm and the twilight star,
Meath a sun that knoweth no setting
Where the souls of her loved ones are.

Good Advice For Boys.

From the Savannah News.
The will of Rufus Hatch, who was a
we'll known Wall Street operator, was
admitted to probate in New York city
Wednesday. A part of it is attracting a
good deal of attention, That part is as
follows: 81 do not wish my boys to 90 to
college, but tt. receive a.commercial ed
ucation. Should any of them, however:
wish to become a lawyer, doctor or
clergyman, then he may go to college; but
| much prefer that my sons should learn
mechanical trade; SO that they will
always be sure of an honest livelihood,
most stongly warn my children not to
use tobacco in any shape or form; nor
to touch, taste or use wine OF liquor in
any way. l earnestly desire that my chill
dren shall not gamble in any way for
money, as their farther haslhad sufficient
experience to serve for all his pos
terity.'
Mr.. Hatch was one Of the conspicuous
figures in financial circles in New York
He made and lost fortunes in Wall
street, and therefore, knew all about
the pleasure of making money and The
pain of lOosing it. He did not want his
sons to become spectators or to devote
their lives to piling up riches. Three
things he warned them particularly
against, namely, strong drink, tobacco
and stock gam bling. His own experience
taught hin that happiness was not to be
found in Wall street Ambitious boys IN
town and country will read with some
amazement that Rufus Hatch preferred
that his sons should learn some mechan-
ical trade rather than enter one of the
profes sons or choose a business career.
A mechanical trade does not hold out
glittering prizes, nor is it the means by
which wealth or position is obtained,
but it affords a certain livelihood and
promises more contentment, and, conse-
duently. happiness than can be found in
a professional or business career.
Boys who are anxious to leave the farm
or who look with contempt upon trade
might read and ponder the foregoing
paragraph from Mr.. Hatch's will with
profit. Those who accumulate great for
tunes or acquire great fame are not the
ones who are the happiest. They graf
ify their peace of mind, and in the end
are forced to the c5n3lusiol i tey
have worried and fretted all their years
to accumulate money that others Twill
enjoy or waste, or to make name that
will be quickly forgotten

SPIRITED AWAY BY NEGRO FIENDs.


Story of the Horrible Treatment of a
Young Lady Living in Laurens County.
In a swamp for Three Days.
A special from Irwinton, Ga, says
Messrs. Wash and Floyd Smith, of Lau-
rens, have just arrived there for the pur-
pose of securing the county hounds to
trail three or four negroes through a
thickly settled portion of Turkey creek
near the line of Wilkinson and Laurens
counties.
The crime for which they are wanted
was committed in Laurens county, and
stands almost without parallel in this
section of Georgia.
Sunday morning about 8 O'Clock
young lady was decoyed from her home
by negro, and after getting her safe
distance from home she was forced into
Turkey creek, where she was found this
morning still alive, but she beans the
signs of being horribly mistreated by
her captors. The negro was seen with
her and was forcing her to follow him
around while he was evading the search
ing party. Finally, being overtaken,
he made his escape, leaving the young
lady behind to relate the story of her
foul treatment. The negro was seen and
recognized py the party, but the swamp
being so thick it was impossible to shoot
n NJ from Ji.tano
1t is believed that three or four ne
groes are connected with the outrage,
and before this is put in print they may
be dangling from tree.

THE FIRST PAPER.

From China It's Use Spread Over Asia
and Thence Int Europe.
The first invention of paper manu-
featured from vegetable pulp is lost in
the mist of antiquity, says the Argosy.
1t appears to have been first introduced
into Europe from the east through the
Arabians and Persians.
The use of paper, according 70 the
modern application OF the word, had
become common in China at an ex-
tremely remote period, and Gibbon tells
US in note that its manufact uTe was
introduced from China into Samarcand
G5l 3. C., and thence spread over Eu-
rope. The Chinese are said TO have so
great a variety Of paper that each prov
ince possesses its own peculiar make.
The sort commonly known as silk pa
peris fabricated from the inner bark of
the bamboo or mulberry tree The rice
paper, 50 called, Is prepared from the
inner portion OF the stems Of e hardy
leguminous plant that grows plentiful
" about the lakes near Calcutta and
also in the island OF Formosa, whence
the Chinese import il in large ouanti-
ties The stems Of the plant being cut
into the proper lengths FOR the sheets
the pin Is cut spirally into tLin sl,ce,
then fattened, pressed and dried
The Arsbians appear first TO have in
troduced the manufacture OF paper into
Spain. On the oldest specimen ex-
tant Of this Spanish manufacture a

HAPPY MARRIAGES.
Annie Lewis Thinks the stage Is Rising
In Popular Esteem.

annie Lewis THINKS the stage Is Rising
in Popular Esteem.
Miss Annie Lewis opinion regarding
the numerous marriages In which prom
inent stars of the stage have become
welded to people in the front ranks Of
society Is interesting. Miss Lewis says:
THE numerous marriages of actresses
that have been going on during the last
four months, and which have been the
topic OF so much discussion, have
proved at least one thing beyond
doubt, and that is that the vocation Of
the actress is much better thought of
than it used to be in the time of Char
lotte Cushman, Matilda Heron, and
Lucille Western. Their vocation has
been more highly thought of, as these
love matches have evinced, just as the
railing against respectabilitv of the
stage has of late years become less. 1t
is evident that the gilded setting in
which an actress is able to shine affords
her a means of fascination not pos
sessed by her sisters in society. Another
advantageous coincident is that there
have been comparatively few actresses
brilliantly successful who have not
possessed an unusually attractive face
and figure. Then, too, an actress
career, If she wishes to get on in her
profession, demands that she interest
herself in decoration, the refinement
and the luxury characteristic of the
most select social sets. If she be pro-
gressive and interested in her work she
surrounds herself with books and other
things that will contribute their quota
TO the perfection of all her appearances,
both upon the stage and in private life.
20, dear, no, don't believe that the
majority of these recent stage marriages
are Instantaneous to either society or
the stage. In fact, they have been most
happy ones. In the case of every prom
inent marriage of this kind, sush as
Mary Anderson to Mr.. Navarro, Edith
Kingdom TO George Gould, Belle Billion
to Lord Clancarty, Minnie Gale to Mr..
Haines, Margaret Mather to Augustus
Pabst, Connie Gilchrist to some English
lord, they have all proved most happy.
Taste changes and love has proved it
self as arbitrary among the fashiona-
bic as anywhere else"

quote from the account mentioned:
Prof Masso showed by experiment that
the effort of thinking causes rush of
blood to the brain, this blood-rush va
rying in intensity according to the
thought He placed a man in the ma
chine, which was so delicately bal
anced that the rush Of blood turned the
scale. The professor says that when
the subject is sleeping the thoughts or
visions which come to him in his
dreams are sufficient TO cause the head
to sink below the feet, and that the
same takes place when the subject is
disturbed by slight sound
He further declares that the balance
will indicate when person is reading
Italian and when Greek, the greater
mental exertion required for Greek pro-
ducing more profuse rush of blood TO
the head

GETTING OFF THE STREET CAR.
A Reason Assigned for the Womsn's
Habit of Stepping the Wrong WAY.

a reason Assigned Tor the " oE1an's
Habit of Stepping the Wrong Way.
Many women descend from a horse
car in exactly the wrong way, says the
New York Sun, that is, they grasp
the handrail of the platform and face
away from the horses as they step off,
instead of grasping the handrail at
tached to the body of the car and fac
ing to the front, as one should do. A
conductor who runs a car upon what
may be called trunk line, that is,
line running north and south upon one
of the busiest avenues, says that he OBJ
serves no substantial change or i'm
provement in women in this respect,
notwithstanding the fact that more or
less has been printed on the subject.
He mentioned as an illustration
young woman who had ridden upon his
car for a number of years Her occupa-
ton is one requiring especial intelli-
gence, but she gets off a horse car now
just as she did at first.
The conductor, however, ascribed
this habit on the part of women, not to
any perverseness, nor even to thought
lessness, but to very simple original
cause. The driver of the car must not,
when he stops, permit the rear plat
form to obstruct the crossing; he is
more likely to run past it little than
he is to halt upon it or even upon the
edge of it. The conductor said that
when the car did stop with the plat
form over the crossing, woman would
perhaps step straight off, not turning
in either direction; but that when, as
more frequently happened, the plat
form was just beyond the crossing, the
woman would grasp the platform rail
and step facing away from the horses,
so that she might take the fewest
possible steps upon the rougher, and
perhaps dirtier, street pavement, and
reach as quickly as possible the
smoother, dryer and cleaner crosswalk

BlUE-EYEO INDIANS.
Supposed Co Be Descended from Wrecked

supposed TO Be Descended from Wrecked
Swedish Sailors.
The Mayas, inhabiting the Sierra
Madre mountains in the lower part of
Sonora, are supposed to be the de-
scendants of the crew and passengers
of a Swedish vessel wrecked on the
Mexican coast long centuries before the
birth of Columbus. They have, accord
ing to the st. Louis Globe-Democrat, a
tradition that their ancestors came in
great canoe over the big salt water
many hundreds of moons ago" They
have never been conquered by the Mex
leans.
They are nominally under Mexican
rule, but are in reality governed by
their own chiefs. Whenever the Mex
lean government interferes with them
they take up arms and they have got
the best of every scrimmage thus far.
The Yaquis are their neighbors and
these two war-like tribes have reciproc-
ity reduced to science. Whenever the
government mterferes with the Yaquis
the Mayas come TO their assistance and
vice versa. Mexican troops cannot
stand before Mayas or white Indians.
They are the most desperate fighters on
the North American continent. Like
their neighbors, the Yaquis, they are
mostly Catholics. Although quite prim-
tive, almost savage, in their mode of
life, the standard Of morality is high.
They live principally by the chase, but
cultivate some corn and garden truck in
the valleys. The men are large, we'll
formed and some Of the women remark
ably handsome blondes. They all re-
tain traces of their Swedish ancestry
