For 1mnoonninns Young Men.

OF late years there has been a new career
opened TO impecunious young men Of good
address and excellent family connections
a career which, if not altogether suited to
an ambitious temperament, is certainly a
very comfortable sinecure, combining as it
does the fieshpots of Egypt, the best so
cety and goodly amount of patronage
It's that OF social manager to a rich man
who has neither the time nor the experience
to attend to the details of his establish
ment for himself. A sort Of glorified major
domo, in fact, the youth becomes. Heruns
the house, engages the servants, attends to
the invitations and the dinners and looks
to it that everything is done In the most
correct style, both in the house and, what
is equally important, the stables
That this is not a distinctly recognized
position goes without saying, as the mere
fact of making it regular Office would
destroy its value This household author
ity, therefore, may be the "fdus Achates -
"the family friend the tame catn Of the
house, anything but what he really is-a
paid employee, engaged to use his knowl-
edge Of the world for the benefit of his
patron.-New York Tribune.

A Government Elevator.

The slowest old elevator in the world is
r. the postof1ice building. -Four years ago
man started from the ground floor to in
stal himself in a government position on
the top floor for which he had Just been APP
pointed, and before he got up there his term
of Office had expired He is now on his
way down, and If he doesn't die of old age
before he reaches the street level he IS going
to try and get another federal position
II is pity that the richest government
In the world in the richest city IN the coun-
try should be represented by such a wretch
ed old elevator
The men who run the thing have 20 be
professional fasters, as the trip up and
down must be accomplished without any
meals on the way, eating in government
elevators being forbidden by a rule Of the
treasury department Amateur elevator
boys have been known TO die Of starvation
on the first trip.
How about the passengers?
There aren't any passengers. People
know too much TO take the elevator in the
postofiice building They all walk up
stairs. Sometimes a man who hasn't any
legs has to take the elevator, and then all
his relatives come to the foot Of the shaft
to bid him more farewells than II he were
going on an arctic trip. The sobbing wife
breaks into hysterical woe as her unhappy
husband, his eyes dimmed with tears, van
ishes up the shaft.
When the intending traveller is young,
sanguine and blessed with sound consti-
tuition the farewells are less lugubrious
His friends and the singing societies to
which he belongs come down to the federal
building with brass band, hoping for the
best, and see him off, little doubtful,
though. as he boards the rickety old car

The Younger Rrothers.

A sister of those ideal outlaws, the
Younger boys, lives in Kansas City. She
is married and few know her identity.
Even did not know it until she addressed
me letter yesterday, caused by the publ
cation of a story that fossilized body sup
posed to be that of Bruce Younger, had
been found in a cave in the Guadaloupe
mountains, and had been identified by a
sister of Bruce living at Gainesville, Tex.
The sister in Kansas City denies the exist
ence of such woman. Bruce, says the
sister, emphatically, was never associated
with the James boys, and, even if alive,
Frank James would not know him. But
she claims that Bruce Younger died in Col
orado City and was buried in Colorado
Springs three years ago last September.
The winter of 1885, she says, he was in
Kansas City, and made his home with her,
under an assumed name of course. Then
he went west. The sister has postal card
written by Bruce when he was first taken
sick IN Colorado, and from his illness she
says he never recovered. 81 know what
am saying" she says, 'and If Bruce were
alive now he would be only 40 years old.
don't want TO see my name in print, but If
necessary you may reveal my identity for
the sake of the dead. AS to Bruce, he never
was an outlaw. kansas City Times.

duplicate Whist In London.

Duplicate whist is very popular in Lon
don. As each hand is played the cards are
laid aside in such way that each player
has in front Of him the cards he played.
After q certain number of games the play
ers at each table play over again the same
cards played in each persons hand, the
cards originally played by A and b being
now taken by G and ID. The side which
makes most from the same hands wins.
The game is best appreciated by the more
expert players. Many whist players in
this country are familiar with and enjoy

percentages prevailed here. No French
man pays eXtravagantly for the ex-

gratuity amounting to one-twentieth

twenty-five-cent tip for a seventy-five-

tips are large, the returns indifferent.
In Europe a small but fixed gratuitv
secures the best service. The European
waiter is not paid by the landlord. He
often pays for his nlaca
