A Friend of Dickens.
London Truth.

Frank" Bland, who died a few days
ago, was for many years one OF the most
intimate friends and most constant asso-
ciates of Charles Dickens. of whom he was
the confidential medical attendant, and he
acted in the same caracity for WiIkIe Col
lins for more than thirty years. He was a
very clever man in his profession. Mr..
Band's close connection with Dickens
made him a weli-known figure in many
literary and theatrical circles, and he was
always very popular in society.
lie had considerable influence over Dick
ems. and in May. 1869, he came prominently
before the public in connection with the
sudden stOppage of his patients public
readings. which were then in the height OF
their popularity. Dickens had then been
for some time in failing health, and he re-
ported such alarming symptoms in his let
ters that Bland rushed down to Preston
and found him on the very brink Of a para
lytic stroke.

The success of the Students Co-opera-
tive Association for the purchase Of
DOCKS, stationery, etc. is greater this year
than ever. owing to good management and
the large sales from the great increase of
the student body. Last year the total
sales amounted TO $4,000. an increase of
1913 per cent over 1912, and of 80 per
cent over lS90-91. This year the manage
ment began with stock on hand Of 5000
from last year, and up to date has pur-
chased $4,000 more OF stock. The sales so
far this term have amounted to about
$4,000 The student body, through this as
socntioD, is furnished with books at a
slight increase on the publishers price.

A most gratifying increase of interest is
seen among the young lady students in
gymnasium work. While years work in

young ladies. Three years ago scarcely

ical exercise. Last year, Notwithstanding
that the only hour available to them for
an exclusive use of the gymnasium was
the noon hour. some sixty of them took
the course. This year the hours from l2
to on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays
have been set apart To them for class work.
and the same hours on Mondays and
Wednesdays for free exercise. Two classes

James n. Atwood of this town has in
his possession the shackles worn by John
Brown when he was captured. Soon
after the execution Of John Brown, in
1853, Rev. Hezekiah Atwood, originally
of Livermore, Me-, was in Charleston,
Va, and while there visited the iail
where Brown was incarcerated awaiting
execution. He was shown the leg irons
which were placed upon Brown at the
time OF his capture and worn constantly
by him until his execution. He tried to
purchase the s~hackles, but was told that
it would be impossible. Asking the old
negress what would happen if the irons
should disappear and another pair be
substituted, she replied that ''the mum.
Der would be good" evidently with no
idea of their historical value. Mr.. At
wood after much difficulty procured an.
other pair at an expense of s. and was
soon in possession of the coveted shac.
kles. AT one time during the lifetime Of
Mr.. Atwood they were used in lectures
by Henry Ward Beecher.-Livermore

At about 6 o'clock last evening the re-
port OF n Of the big guns at KeOgh,
together with the weird footing OF the
water works whistle, gave notice to the
people OF the post and the city that a
fire was raging at the post: soon after
the alarm was given the sky appeared
red in that direction, and subsequent
facts proved that the residence OF Cor
poral Milt Hill had caught fire from the
cook stove. and before aid could be
reached, the house with all its contents
were burned to the ground. Corporal
Hill at the time of the fire was in the
city doing train duty. and did not learn
OF his misfortune until some time after
the fire was over. Mr.. Hill feels his loss
keenly as his entire household effects
went up in the smoke without one pen
n. of insurance on them.

One of the most arduOus tasks deyolv.
ing upon the officers of q warship is tina,
OF preventing the men from smuggling
intoxicants aboard the ship.
A company of half a dozen men on
n Of the warships here during the ma
val review had a young parrot for a pet
housed in a gorgeous big cage. The bird
was the successor of several that had oc.
cupied the same cage during a stay at a
tropical port. The owners seemed to be
unfortunate with their pets, which lived
only a short time. The one they brought
here, which had stood the voyage well.
died soon after the ship arrived in port.
The n.n took the cage ashore and rot
some otner kind of bird. That also soon
died. and 80 aid four or five others in
succession within IA few weeks.
Finally the officers noticed the great
mortality Of pet birds. as they had al.g
noticed the great frequency with which
the JOINT owners of these pets got n!ys-
~teriou>ly drunk aboard snip. \ susp!.
clon daN-ned upon them. and they seized
the birdcase. They found it had "A false

quart Of whisky. and also that the food
tins and even the thick bars were hol
low. The nIen had killed their cheap
pet when other schemes for obtaining
liquor We're not available, and taking
the cage ashore for another came back
with a new bird and half a gallon or so
of whisky.-New York Sun.

TtE LONDON CABRY.

Dramatic Little Incidents Connected With
the Reception "r His Exact Fare.
Everybody who has lived in London
has witnessed the dramatic little Incl.
don't corrected with cabbv's reception
of his exact fare. His hirer, having
alighted. stands on the pavement and
feels for his rurse. Cabby meanwhile
I leans over til railing Of his seat with a
benignant and ingratiating smile. That
smile. it may be stated at once, is a
fraud. 1t is not a genuine beam of good
nature, but is one Of cabby's business
''props." 1t is a smile of much mean
ing, and cabby throws his whole soul
into it. 1t is trusting and confident. 1t
%insinuates that cabby feels that he has
met in you "a man in whom he recos-
nizes a peculiarly generous nature. 1t
means that cabby has no anxiety. He
knows that you are going to give him
something for himself.
But as a matter of fact, if you watch
cabby closely you will see the hollow
ness of its professions. Cabby's eyes are
very wide open, and he is scanning a
great deal more carefully than his fare
the little pile of silver that gentleman is
turning over in his hand. Then he
stretches down his hand. broad and fat,
but trustingly, assured that he is about
to be treated as a man should be. The
fat palm ascends again, but as his fare
turns to depart, the smile dies away.
For q moment. as if dazed, he gazes
blankly into his hand; then a look of
mingled contempt and indignation passes
over his expressive face. He turns fierce
ly on his prey.
"Ere, wot's this"
"Your fare" floats back to him.
"Ny fare!' in "a tone Of scathing scorn
tiny fare!"
Then rapidly and with a businesslike
manner, as if the time for emotion We're
passed now:
SIRE. old ard; l wants another tan
nar."
By this time his fare, if he knows any
thing at all about cabmen, is we'll under
way. Cabby, standing up, dashes the
offending shilling on the ground with a
gesture of ineffable loathing, as at some
unclean thing. No good. His fare is
disappearing, ~unconcerned, and cabby,
convinced that the game is up, but loath
to relinquish his indignation, slowly un-
swathes himself from the folds of his
voluminous blanket, descends as slowly.
picks up the innocent shilling still more
slowly, mounts again. gathers mp his
reins with n final blighting look be-
hind him and drives away, his face that
of a mar who never till that moment
had sounded the hideous depths of sor-
did human nature. London Sketch.
