SENATOR QUAT points with pride TO his
yesterdays Record.
The Washington times., 1894-08-23

In striking contrast to this remarkable pro-
duction of Mr.. Brosius is SO page speech of
Senator Quay, of the most technical kind and
with thirty or forty elaborate tables of statis-
tics. There will probably be a very large de-
mand for copies ofthis number Of the Record
it is but natural to suppose that the Pennsyl-
vania manufacturers will want TO see how
their compilations. really prepared for Dir.
Quay's speech, look in print They may
want TO distribute some Of these Records os-
tensibly for Quay's speech but really for Mr.
Brosius' humorous collection. Altogether
the issue makes the best campaign document
the fact that Quay and Brosius are both
Pennsylyanians makes 1t looks a little as
though the monopolizing of this Record was
cooked-up scheme, and that it is to be used
largely among their Pennsylvania constitu-
ents.

The Emperor and the Pirate.

Alexander the Great was about to pass
sentence of death on noted pirate, but
previously asked him, "Why dost thou
trouble the seas?"
why" rejoined the rover boldly,
"dost thou trouble the whole world? /,
with one ship, go in quest of solitary ad-
venture and am therefore called pirate.
Thou, with great army, warrest against
nations and therefore art called en-
peror. Sir, there is no difference be-
twixt us but in the name and means Of
doing mischief"
Alexander, so far from being dis
pleased with the freedom of the culprit
was so impressed with the force Of his
appeal that he dismissed him unpun
ished.-Sala's Journal.

Kabarega. the negro king of Unyoro,
in Central Africa, is man who rules his
subjects with a rod of iron. Like all ty-
rants, he regulates their smallest actions,
and host of spies inform him of any
disobedience to his commands.
Among other things, he has made a
fixed tariff of prices for everything
bought or sold in his country, and every
deviation from it is severely punished.
An instance of this is given by Vita Has
san in his book about Emin Pasha and
the Equatorial Province.
About month after Hassan's arrival
in Unyoro he bought fowl and paid 80
cowries for it, while the market price
was only 25. In that part of Africa it
takes about 250 cowries to make 81.
Soon afterward dragoman of the king
appeared and brought back 5 cowries,
with the message:
ga fowl costs only 20 cowries, while
you have given 30. The seller has done
wrong, and the king will punish him,
but he sends you the advice to be care
full henceforth in your purchases-never
to give for anything more than it is
worth, first of all in your own interest,
and next to this in order not to disturb
| the market. Youths Companion.

A man who lives in fiat near Central
park recently had peculiar experience.
A couple of deaf mutes rented an apart
ment underneath his own and were
blessed in due season by the arrival of a
bouncing baby with an excellent pair of
lungs. At night the little one woke up
nearly the entire house by its cries, but
through all of it the parents slept until
the tenant above, at the solicitation of
his wife, went down stairs and fairly
forced an entrance. The deaf and dumb
couple resort to many ingenious devices
to overcome the disadvantages under
which they labor. They are unable to
hear their doorbell, so they have ar.
ranged piece of colored paper upon
the gong in such way that the paper
flutters when the bell rings. By keep.
ing a watchful eye on the bell they are
able to receive their visitors promptly,
but their inventive genius has not as yet
devised scheme to indicate the baby's
distress at night.-New York Mail and
Express.

It's Human Nature.

A well dressed man got ON the Sixth
avenue elevated the other day and
groped along for a strap, which his
companion finally placed in his hand.
As the former seemed quite uncertain
of his footing and was being partially
supported by the latter, people stared
at him rather hard under the impression
that he was intoxicated. He was not
only we'll dressed, but wore handsome
ring, heavy gold watch chain and other
jewelry. Passengers jostled him con-
siderably as he swayed from the strap,
and pretty soon it became evident to
those in the vicinity that instead Of be-
ing intoxicated the man was blind. A
young lady made the discovery and i'm
mediately arose and motioned the blind
mans companion to take her seat.
When this had been communicated to
the blind man, the latter turned in the
direction of the lady and raised his
hat respectfully, but declined the prof
fered courtesy. His companion whis-
pered something in his ears-most like
ly that the lady was both young and
handsome-for the afflicted man began
pluming himself and finally turned by
changing hands on the strap so that the
young lady might get more definite
view of rather fine face. He straight
ened up his rings, settled his collar, felt
to ascertain whether his coat was but
toned and pulled down his cuffs-just
as vain man usually does when he
wants to make good appearance

Mrs. Romney.s Water Cooler.

The Colorado journalist, Mrs. Rom
ney, has patented, among several other
articles, a water cooler which does not
require ice. 1t is covered receptacle,
of cellular brickware, manufactured of
clay, sawdust and asbestus fiber. In
the process the sawdust is burned out,
leaving the product cellular, or porous.
The receptacle, with the water to be
kept cool within, stands in tray Of
galvanized iron, which holds water to a
depth of two or three inches. By reason
of the porosity of the cooler and the force
of capillary attraction, the water in
the tray constantly rises through the
cellular walls of the receptacle, and Is
as constantly evaporated-thereby keep.

One of the most curious of current
beliefs is that of hypocrisy lurking in
pleasant manners and sincerity in those
that are rough or stern. 1t seems a
relic of our Puritan forefathers, but it
certainly is out of place today. One
foolish, or very innocent, to give hee
to more than the letter of society cour-
tesies. But, ON the other hand, the
wish to please is good sign in itself,
and the willingness to hurt, by word
as we'll as by deed, is bad sign in it.
self. Sel6shness is, far more than hy-
pocrisy even, usual failing. And
there is small hope for the habitually
self absorbed rough speaker, while there
is always chance that the soft manner
may sink into the heart. To those who
tell us that soft words butter no pars-
nips, we may retort, oil IL also better
for wig than vinegar. If proverbs
mean anything, it is because there is
one for every side of question:

VloLETS.

The woodbird calls, the shadows Zee,
The sun comes golden from the sea;
Across the meadow as stray
For you take the fern fringed way,
To gather violets wet with dew
Which only bloom, my love, for you
For you, my love, alone for youl
The grasses bend, the dewdrops shine,
The hawthorn's breath is sweet as wine;
The soft wind steals with presence sweet
To fling white petals at my feet
And lift the leaves from violets blue,
Hidden to wait, my love3for you
For you, my love, alone for you'll
Blue as your eyes, which hearts beguile,
Their faint perfume sweet as your smile,
gather them, with fervent prayer
That they my passion may declare;
Their petals pale, tear stained with dew,
May tell how live but for you
For you, my love, alone for you!

LOVES REMINDERS.

Shy bluebird on yon maple spray,
My coming causes you surprise.
You cry aloud and fly away
On wings that glitter as they rise;
So blue are they, so skyey clear,
UneQualed bliss their beaming brings;
For now think Of one most dear,
Whose eyes are bright as bluebird's wings
From covert groves glides forth trill
OF wild birds singing Justify,
Yet while list my thoughts will still
Seek lIeI Who 10 most dear 10 Iue,
For, oh, her soft and soothing voice
Sounds merrier than the leaping throng
Or waters when spring rills rejoice
Its music mates the linnet's song.
Upon bourgeoned white birch broad
A squirrel gambols spry and fleet,
Until, by my rude spaniel awed,
She higher mounts on hasty feet;
And as she bounds without fall
From lower limbs to limbs above
Her agile motions well recall
The fake-lght footballs of my love.
