A Tramn,s Exciting Ride.

A tramp giving his name as John Fair
appeared at the police station bruised
from head to foot, and asked permission
to sleep in a cell until morning. Fair
said he had come to Atchison from
Omaha on a through stock train, and
had the most terrible experience of his
life. Shortly before the train pulled out
of Omaha, the tramp said, he crawled
into car which was loaded with steers.
The steers soon began to step on him, and
seeing this would never do the tramp
climbed on the back of one animal. This
enraged the steer, and it lunged forward,
exciting the other steers, when there
was panic.
The maddened steers dashed about,
hooking each other and striking the
tramp on all sides. He put his arms
about the neck of the steer which he
was riding and held his grip until the
train stopped at Atchison. The tramp's
head had struck the top of the car a
number of times, and it was badly
bruised. -Atchison Globe.

Invercauld House, where Sir Algernon
Borthwick has been entertaining the
Prince Of Wales, the Duke Of Connaught
and Prince Henry of Battenberg, is the
ancient seat of the Farquharsons, of In
vercauld, near Braemar. The place has
been let to Sir Algernon Borthwick since
the death of Colonel Farquharson at the
easy rate of e4,500 year. Invercauld
is very fine house, which was greatly
enlarged and improved about seventeen
years ago, and it occupies one of the
most beautiful sites in the highlands.
The Dee flows a short distance below
the house, and woods and tree clad rocks
are all around, with the mountains as a
background.
Invercauld has always enjoyed the
reputation of being the finest situated
country seat in Aberdeenshire, and in
variety and beauty and grandeur the
surrounding scenery is not surpassed in
Scotland. The great deer forest of In
vercauld is one Of the best in the high
lands, and the grouse moors afford first
rate sport, and there is long stretch of
excellent salmon fishing in the Dee. The
Farquhason estates extend TO about 90
900 acres.-St. James Budget.

Fun for the Monkey.

A pet monkey was sitting in my grand
mothers drawing room when a lady
came in and sat down. The monkey,
after watching her for some time from
the back of the chair on which he was
perched, snatched the visitors bonnet
from her head, pat it on his own,
and defed all attempts to catch him
and rescue the bonnet. At last, the
window being open, he leaped out upon
the lanppost. and there sat, sharing the
delight Of the passersby, looking as
Butcher must have looked when, years
after, he appeared on the field of Water
loo in an old lady's bonnet.-London

|IT WAS SUBLIME,

Added, Quite Fatal.
THE Wonderful Exercise
of Faith
the Case of the Late c. F.
e.ovens. Sick of Pneumonia.
e,,,a of the Foolerles of the
r.,,n,sts the Old Mans Lungs
Ware Closed by the Disease.

q I stevens died last Sunday AT his
ma on South Maricopa street.. 1t is
'Ho,ad of neglect. Not neglect within
.ha ordinary meaning OF the word, for
'bouph he was alone in the world there
-aro several persons willing and anxious
~ minister to his last wants. His dis
.oss was pneumonia. 1t is said that
when he was taken sick he fell into the
Sonds of faith cure people and the re-
MI, was almost necessarily fatal. The
Iaoossed was an od-timer and described
as "set in his ways" and consequently
hsfell An easy victim to the injunction to
~, we'll without the aid OF medicine.
IL Aid his best and only at the last mo-
mi when it became plain that a
inrtbsr application of the faith cure was
nothipg less than murder, weak medi-
cinal remedies were tried AS sort OF
COMPROMISE between the faith cure and
cannon sense treatment. Death ls
sIWaVs sad and in many cases may be
Ssidto be deplorable. The faith cure
,,ictim WAS an old man, friendless and
alone. He could not have hoped to live
much longer and there are none to mourn
him. Under such circumstances it won ID
saem this was one of the cases not
strongly tinged with sorrow or regret.
Bnt one thing is overlooked; he should
have lived for the edification OF the faith
cnrists and death was unreasonably re-
lentless in that it did not spare this old
man as shining monument to the
efficacy of blind misdirected and un-
reasonable faith.
Everything possible under that sys-
TEN was done for him. He was told
that he was not sick and he believed it I;
he was informed that any discomfort he
was undergoing was imaginary; he was
assured that he would get well and he
accepted the assurance as foregone
fact. vet he died. All the conditions
seemed favorable to the faith curists !;
thew we're enthusiastic, the victim was
in A receptive frame of mind and both
pariies to the case were overlooking
with faith. There was, however, some
thing overlooked, and that was the ma
ture Of the disease. Pneumonia is not
a great respecter OF skilled physicians
and strong medicines, hence there is
little wonder that it obstinately refused
to give in before the fooeries OF the
faith curists and persisted in filling up
the old mans lungs until he could no
longer breathe.
The only cause the curists have yet
been able to assign for the unfavorable
termination OF the case is that the dis
ease was fatal.

shortly be percept1bly cheaper. Mack
erel it seems begin to run in our waters
about the middle of April, at first ap-
pearing in immense numbers, but small
size. For years the fishermen gathered
them in at the earliest possible moment,
thereby preventing them from reaching
good growth, and wasting thousands
of small fish that We're almost worthless
on the market.
To prevent this law was passed pro-
hibiting the catching of mackerel until
the LIST of June, by which time good
growth is obtained. AS, however, by
that date they have become scarce in
this vicinity, the price became CORE
spondingly high. Next April the five
year embargo expires, and we will have
abundant and cheap mackerel until the
fishermen again overreach themselves.
A fish dealer said recently: sit was
wicked the way these fish were wasted;
for twenty-five cents, n few years ago,
You could come into my shop and buy a
half peck of mackerel, small and big, as
they came. Then they grew so scarce
that about the time the law went into
effect single plump fish brought one
dollar sometimes. There is talk now of
passing a law to prevent the sale of the
small clans, which have increased in
price from six dollars per barrel whole
sale to thirteen dollars ON account of
their reckless use. That will make the
Little Necks an expensive luxury for
awhile, but it will save the breed. New

1jshIps in Convention.

As with SO many similar gatherings,
the really interesting side of the Epis-
copal general convention that recently
ended its sessions in Baltimore did not
come out in the daily reports of it's
formal proceedings. Besides the regular
meetings, which were of course impor-
tant in their way, there were held daily
gatherings of the bishops and deputies
in the hotel reading rooms, which were
enlivened with many entertaining anec.
dotes and personal experiences.
A few of these possibly partook of the
nature of the chestnut. One heard, for
instance, how u boy once tried to sell
some kittens to Bishop Brooks on the
plea that they were Episcopal kittens,
and how few days later he tried to sell
the same kittens to Baptist clergyman
walking with the bishop, alleging that
they were Baptist kittens, and how he
explained the discrepancy in his story
TO the bishop by saying that they had
had their eyes opened i'll the meanwhile.
This and few other stories about the
bishop have apparently been touched
with immortality. Like the tabled An
taeus, they renew their strength when
ever they fall to the ground. But there
were plenty of fresh stories also. The
morning after Bishop Brooks preached
in Emmanuel church deputy asked a
well known Baltimore churchman who
had been present how the bishop had
acquitted himself. "Magnificently,"
was the answer. eleven women faint

A TEST CASE.

A corpulent gentleman stood in front
of the Providence depot recently. His
immense head was elevated high in the
air; it looked as if he was watching a
balloon; but the Journal representative
hadn't heard of any bolloon ascension,
and upon glancing upward could see
nothing unusual.
The rOtund gentleman was soon the
centre Of large crowd, each staring
solennly at the wintry skies.
whats the matter, anyway; what are
you all lookin' atP" asked a shriveled-up
lady with pair of green goggles pro-
tecting her eyes.
AS no one knew, the lady received no
definite answer, whereupon she mutter-
ed: ''Never saw such a pack of fools
BEFORE" and then left in disgust.
A policeman came along and he too
gazed aloft. Seeing nothing, he said,
"Move on here; don't be after blocking
the sidewalk, or orll pull yez all in, so
OF will"
The crowd melted away and the fat
gentleman walked over to the depot and
entered; the Journal man asked hi m
what he had been looking at.

THE BUSY MAN.

Mr.. Charles Dudley Warner opens up
an interesting line of thought in his arti-
Gle in the March Harper's Magazine on
the interruptions and annoyances to
which the busy man is subjected. at
might be inferred, says he. from their
complaints that half the lives of most
people was literally wasted in these little
disturbances" As men get along in
years the tasks which they aim at ac-
co nplishing multiply, and this burden
from the outside grows more serious and
Vexatious. But there are two points in
connection with such demands which
ought not to be overlooked. The first
is that these leYies upon one from with
out are proof that his time and efforts
have recognized worth. 1t is Scrip
tural saying that to them that have shall
be given. With equal truth it might be
added that from those who value them
selves most most shall be asked. The
nam who is not liable to these annoy
ances is seldom of much account. The
man whose time is of little or no value
to himself is usually of no value to the
public. Furthermore, there Interrupt
lions are oftentimes the salvation of the
man himself. They force him to change
the current of his thought and work, they
introduce new elements into his expert
ence and shift the emotional strain.
Gladstone was once asked how he was
able to accomplish so many things. His
reply was: 81 do not know unless it is
because l am interested in so many
things" Not only do these changes re-
lieve and freshen the mind, but they
serve to draw out talents and abilities
which otherwise would remain dormant
Diverse experiences round and devel-
OPP. The man of lone book" is dan
gerous fellow to meet in his own chosen
field, but that field is generally SO mar
row that the world has little use for him.
1t is difficult when ones work is piling
up to regard these Interruptions as angels
in disguise. 1t is much easier TO hang
out the sign, "This is my busy day."
But angels they really are.
