GROVER CLEVELAND is an east
ern man and he has no use for
a western fellow when there are 50
many eastern men lying round
loose waiting fOra gOvernment job.
He has evidently an idea that the
average westerner has not the men
tai furnishing necessary to hold
down any first class foreign posi-
sion. His appointment of Gray
was made under protest that he
was not qualified, but Whitney
had Gray down in black and white
and Grover had to cotton.

THERE is little prospect of Ca
priv carrying his army bill sue
cessfully through the reichstag,
and as little prospect of his resig-
nation on account of the failure.
He has the support and confidence
Of his imperiOus master, and the
dissolution of the reichstag will
very likely follow the final defeat
of the EmperOr's chosen measure.
1t would have been as we'll, if not
better, for Caprivi to have accepted
the compromise offered and ended
the contest. The bill as prepared
called for 10000 men and the reichs-
tag committee offered him $4,000,
but he had his back up and his
pugnacity aroused and would none
of it.

Her Only Friend Was - Murderer Whom
She Followed to the ScafTold.
Ellis R. Smith, the only republican
sheriff Pettis county has had since the
war, and the only sheriff that has ever
executed a criminal during the criminal
history of that county, was relating his
experiences as an officer to a reporter for
the st. Louis Post-Dispatch. 81 wit

had the very unpleasant duty of Off
cially removing an old man by the name
of Tom Williamson, who had been con-
victed of a triple murder. About two
months before the day of the execution
the old man asked me to get him a
young kitten to raise. / did so. An at
tachment grew up between the two
that was certainly remarkable. If at
any time 1 happened to lock the old
man up in a cell without the cat, she
would raise such disturbance that l
would have to lock her up with him.
They were together day and night.
When the day of execution rolled
around, the cat appeared to be the
chief mourner and brought up the rear
of the death march to the scaffold
When the trap was sprung, the cat
walked back into the Jail and, after
walking up and down the corridor for
an hour, pounced upon old man Will
hamson's cot, where it remained for a
week, refusing to eat or drink About

KEPT BUSY,
twenty Four Bricks Entirely Abraded by
Hands of y Baby Convict.

twenty Four Bricks Entirely Abraded by
Hands of = Baby Convict.
Capt Powell, in his description of life
in southern Convict Camp" tells one
story which bears sad testimony TO the
imperfection OF human law, even In the
nineteenth century and in the United
States. The story concerns negro
named Cy Williams, who was entered
upon the books of the convict camp.
When a mere pickaninny, running
about in the one garment that forms
the costume of all negro youngsters in
the south, he was arrested for stealing
horse. He was not large enough to
mount the animal, and was caught in
the act of leading it off by the halter.
for which he was duly-the word
should be unduly-sentenced to twenty
years imprisonment,
warden Martin was puzzled to know
what to do with so small convict, but
finally invented a task that certainly
reflects credit upon his ingenuity. He
placed two bricks at each end of the
prison yard, and giving the black baby
two more, ordered him to carry them to
one of the piles, lay them down, picl,
up the other two, which in turn were
to be carried to the farther end, ex-
changed again, and so on hack and
forth al day long, always carrying two
bricks.
He was warned that he would be
whipped if he failed to pile the bricks
neatly or broke any of them lie grew
up at the task, and the constant abra-
sion OF merely picking up and laying
down wore out four sets of bricks be-
fore he was put to other labor.

BEAUTY AND THE BEASTS.

n Pretty Face at Carriage Window
QuelIs a Wrangie of Transfers.
Three Broadway cars, four trucks, a
mail wagon and light cart became en-
tangled in street blockade the other
day. 1t was bitter cold and the drivers
felt grieved that they had to stand still,
according to the New York Sun.
Then handsome carriage with a
spanking team and an old driver in
livery tried to worm its way through
the blockade. There was rattle and
bang, and the carriage wheels were
caught fast by the wheels of truck.
'Hah, We swash-faced, lunk-headed
baboon," a car driver yelled to the liv-
cried driver, ''whar' n 'ell v gaw'n2'
''Gabbacl out o. that" cried another
driver.
The air was blue with profanity, each
driver vying to outswear the other.
The driver of the carriage said never a
word, but his face was study. Rage,
hostility and cuss words were struggling
there with restraint and duty.
Just then the carriage door was
opened from within and rosy face an
peared, budding from a hay mass of
light furs.
twas sweet, blue-eyed, young and
very pretty face, only the mouth was
contracted as if in pain.
What's the matter, Johna" she asked,
plaintively. Cant you drive onp I'm
just freezing in here"
The swearing ceased at once, and no
one looked John in the face But the
driver of the car backed his horses, the
truck pulled up little, the cart swung
slightly around, and the carriage
passed through and rolled on its way.

PROGRESS IN BURGLARY.
Safe-Cracking Has Become q Science an,

Safe-Cracking Has Become q Science and
the Jimmy IL Obsolete.
Burglary is a trade. 1t has it's tricks,
its tools, and its ups and downs 1t is
a trade which, according to the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat, is continually
changing and improving. Methods Of
high-class burglars that We're in vogue
twenty years ago are hardly known
now. The thief's Jimmy" is out of
date. Safe-blowing has given way to
safe-cracking. Four or five men, with
few sticks of dynamite, rob a train
nowadays as easily as twenty men,
armed to the teeth, did it dozen years
ago. But in spite of the changes the
motto of all low-grade crooks is: ''The
way to steal is to steal" They en-
brace every opportunity, and steal
whenever they can, often making a
bnngling job and getting nipped. After
a few terms in the penitentiary, how
ever, they are no longer low-grade
crooks, but have become educated pro-
fessionals. The penitentiary is their
school. There they are taught all the
improvements of the trade" and there
many burglars devices are invented by
brainy but vicious men.

naplts of untidiness by allowing them
to wear oilcloth bibs or permitting a
square of oilcloth to be placed under
each plate. nor are the little ones al
lowed to use high chairs having little
tables in front, either.
But could You see them, you would
certainly wish that they had had some
thing to keep the food off their clothing
and faces, too. AS for tables and chairs
they never heard of such luxuries. OF
what use would tables be to them, they
think. Why desire chairs when they
can sit SO easily upon the mud floor?
To be sure the floor is not always
clean, but they are accustomed to dirt,
and upon some feast-day they will hire
one of the sweeper caste to come in and
clear up for them. Unless they belong
to this caste themselves they foolishly
will not sweep, even if they mired in
dirt. The wealthier high caste fami-
lies have the house swept each day by
the sweeper" who, with his whislS of
small twigs removes all the trash from
the floor.
The water carrier makes daily rounds,
carrying in a goat skin the water he
has obtained from the public well.
Sometimes this water is clean and
sometimes not. but it is used never

English Farm Hands.

When, as rarely happens, English
farm laborers come to this country, they
find it extremely difficult to accommo-
date themselves to the current American
custom of eating but three meals day.
An English maid servant and nurse who
lived TO be more than hundred years
old averred that she had always been
accustomed to "a dew bit and break
fast, a stay bit and dinner, O nommet,
a crummet, and bit after supper"
Extra meals are common enough during
the harvest season in this country. The
hasty breakfast at half-past three in the
morning is followed by ''stay Bit at
eight o'clock and bK'a luncheon be-
tween the noon-day dinner and the
after-sunset supper. In parts of south
ern Pennsylvania the dinner hour is
eleven o'clock IN the morning, and it
would not be difficult to show that
Americans living on the same meridian
are dining ali the way from that noar
until seven in the evening. The great
mass of country folk still dine at noon.

1t was case of woman's rights.
1t was at Thirty-ninth street and

the New York Record, and the two

While crossing in front of the Metro

the shoes of both girls, and Mabel in

A group of youngsters gathered and
gazed at the novel sight, but the girl

"Doing Up the Work" Comparatively
Easy Task.
The Hindoos never pile their dishes
''helter slleiter'f in the dish pan, as
some of their American cousins do. In
no Hlndoo house have / seen furnished
silver or murlxy glassware. They never
hang soiled dish-cloths or tea towels on
line to dry. and then use them again,
without rinsing; neither is their sink
or slop-bpckeG eyer greasy or grimy.
Hired girls never break the cups ana
saucers. plates and bowls, in their un-
due haste to finish their work, for, first,
they are never in a hurry. and second,
there are no dishes to break.
The common people of India have
neither glassware, silverware, cutlery
nor dishes, Sometimes each member
of the family is provided with brass
drinking vessel and deep plate of the
same material. though often one will suf-
fee for the entire family. They are very
fond of curry and rice and rice soup,
which they eat very deity with neither
spoons, forks nor chopsticks. Their
bread being served in the form of a
tough, unleayened pancake, portion
of this does duty as d SPOON
They are exceedingly particular
about keeping their brass dishes clean
and bright, but would laugh at the
idea of using dishpan to wash them
in. or dishcloth to rub them. or a
towel upon which to dry them. They
rinse them with hot water, scour with
sand, rinse again, then place them in
the sun to dry. A sink is entirely un-
necessary, the mud floor being not
only sufficient as work table, npon
which to prepare dinner but to do mp
the work." on after dinner, as well.
There is never one yestigc of food

having been sopped up and eaten,

FASHIONS IN ORPHANS.
Some OF the Institutions Have by Far Too
Small an Assortment,

Small an Assortment,
A fussy little woman went to an or
phan asylum to adopt an orphan. She
picked out a little girl with red hair,
and, after giving receipt for her, left.
She resumed the next day, says the
New York Herald, and said to the su-
perintendent: My husband thinks this
orphan won't suit. Haven't you got
any with black hair and blue eyes?"
The superintendent hunted through
the institution and found nothing of
the color wanted. 1t is rather a rare
combination anyway, / have heard.
Then the woman got mad.
why don't you keep a proper assort-
ment of orphans?' she demanded.
whats the use of running a place in
this one-horse way? Over in the Brook
lynn home they've got orphans Of all
colors. You'll ruin the business if you
act like this. Don't you find your Gus
toners are going elsewhere? When do
you think you'll have orphans with
black hair and blue eyes?"
THE colors aren't fashionable" said
the superintendent, "but / shall be
pleased to communicate with you and
fill your order when am able to do SO. "
well, see that you do" answered
the woman, little Modified. These
institutions aren't half what they used
to be. Don't keep me waiting longer
than a week"
And she left the red-haired one and
went home. Every time the bell rings
she thinks it is an expressman bringing
her orphan order with black hair and
