She Remembers Her NeWshoy Friend;

"There is a young man in Mobile.
Ala, said Colonel Robert McEachia, OF
Winchester, Va, "who has csuse to re-
member Amelis RiVes, the writer, tW1es
year. When the now distinguished
lady was little girl and lived ip thss
city, she became fondly attached to y
newsboy who cried out his papers every
morning in the neighborhood in whic8
she lived. They met one day and friend
ship sprang up between them that las
lasted to the present time. After the
boys stock of papers were sold n the
morning he would call for the psetty
little blue-eyed miss and they would take
long strolls down Froscute road, pluck-1
ing the orange blossoms and the magno~
liza blooms. They soon got to be fami.}
liar figures on Government stree, - they3
would walk along that busy thorough I
fare with the young girls head ssrlandeo
with wreaths of beautiful aowefs and the
little BOYS arms filed with vines ands
e7erereens. Then Miss Rives moved far
away into Virginia, but she never forgos
her newsboy friend, for it was her custom
almost daily to write him, telling how
sadly she missed the walks and strolls,
his Joyous, sunny face and the music OF
his boyish laughter. I doubt If Mrs
Chanler, as she now is, ever wrote love-
lier or more poetic or passionate SEM
tences tnan those she used to send in her'
letters to her newsboy sweetheart. TheE
boy met with misfortune some yaarA
ago which crippled him for HE. He u

A Leopard Scare.

Ramporc Bauleah is suffering from
something like leopard scare, says
the Indian News. 'Thc night before
last 4 leopard made hole III the mat
wall and entered a hut in village
a mile frOm the cutcherrieS. Inside
the hut were sleeping man, his
wife, two or three women, a goat,
and ! girl years Of aye. the Leopard
seized the girl by the thrOat and at.
tempted to drag her through the hole.
Being seized by the thrOat The girl
could not scream. but was almost
sutfocated, but The hole was not big
enough to allow the GIRLS body to
pass out while the brute held her by
the throat. The leopard thereupon
let go his hold on her throat aud
seized her by the foot and dragged
her GhrOugh. But as soon as he had
let go ais hold on her throat she
screamed loudly, awakening the i'll
mates Of the nut The man rushed
out with big stick, but the leopard
had carried the girl OF about a hun
dred yards before the man Game up
with her. He then belabored the
animal with his stick, when the ieop-
ard let go his hold aud led into the
Jungle. The girl was brought to the
medical 10 visionary, DR.. Morrison, but
though everything that surgical and
medical skill could effect has been
done she is not likely to survive, as
her wounds are Of d terrible nature.
This event has caused something like
panic IN the place. about a year
ago Mr.. Price, the collector, with
twelve elephants and party OF
Europeans, succeeded il killing 4
lnau-eating leopard that had killed
about l50 people, some thirty miles
from Rampore Bauleah. Wild ami.
mails are on the increase in this dis
trict, owing to the ruin Of the silk
and indigo trades. Last year one

News and Impure Literature.

newspaper, as faithful hiSto-
rian, must record the events Of each
day. the good and the bad; but it is
guilty Of a crime against society if 1t
pu1veys impure literature. Acting
in its rightful function, the newspa-
per is a most powerful agency for the
prevention of crime and lmpurlty.
The publicity it gives to offenders in
the pursuit Of its duty Of chTonicling
the occurrences Of the day, is most
efficient deterrent from crime and
vice and impurity. Wickedoess is
afraid Of the light Of publicity which
the newspaper casts upon it. In the
performance OF that duty, however,
newspaper is never Justified III
pandering to deprayed tastes. 1t is
not eXcusable in printing scandal
simply because the people like scandal.
1t is morally culpable II it publishes
impure literature" Of any Kind OI

.lAYs OF THE ASTORS.
Peculiar Rules Laid Down for Their Ten
ants by the Great Ke2I-Es.ate Owners.

REGULAR Rules Laid Down for Their Ten
ants by the Great ke2I-Es.ate Owners.
Some OF the rules by which the
tenants Of the AstorS are bound are
curious For Instance, although they
will make almost any repairs that 4
tenant suggests before the lease ID
signed, even though the repairs may
cost more than the rental, they Will
not spend d cent un the property dur
ing the eXiStence ui the lease. 4 lad :
who rented d house IL E'orty-hfln
street from the AstOrs was told that
she could have any repairs or alterd-
tiOns she wished, but no chandeliers.
She had the house decorated from top
tu bottom and many expensive re-.
pairs made and there was not u re.
moastrauce, but She had TO supply all
the chandeliers, a, cost OF 81 800,
herself. OF course they remain her
property, and she can take them away
when she moves.
A curious incident is related by
another tenant il torty-tourtf street.
She leased a house at rental Ot
50, 600 for one year. When she came
to renew the lease for another year
she was informed that the rent would
he only 1900. She was told by
somebody who pretended to know
that .4e reduction Was due to de-
terioration in the value Of the prop
erty, and that the Astors did not
want more than certain interest on
it. That, however, was not true, as
was learned upon inquiry at the
office Of the AStor estates. The clerks
there said that the reduction Was due
simply to the fact that during the
first year they had charged per
centage for repairs and changes. As
none was required the second year
the percentage Was taken OF. Never
theless, it remains the fact that the
reduction was voluntary and " the
tenant unexpected.

AMBITION is to the mind what the
cap is to the falcon; it blinds US first,
and then compels Us to tower by
reason OF our blindness. But, alas,
when We are at the summit Of vain
ambition we are also at the depth OF
real misery. We are placed where
tme caunot improve, but must i'm
pair Us; where chance and change
cannot befr.eud, but may betray Us;
in short, by attaining all We wish,
and gaining all we want, We have
only reached a pinnacle where We
have nothing to hope, Uut everything
to fear.
