Nineteen Days In the Woods.

W. II. Beller recently turned up at his
home in Mercer county, w. Va, after
having been lost for 10 days in the New
Pine mountains. For the first four day s
he travelled constantly in the endeavor
to find his way out of the wilderness in
which he was lost When he found that
he had but two matches left, and fear
ing that he might use them up and be
unable to kindle fire, he picked out a
permanent camping place, started fire
AGAINST pine tree and made ready to
live as best he could until aid came. Ills
tree burned until it fell and then be
piled brush against the fallen trunk in
order to keep the fire going. He re-
mained at that place 10 days, moving Q
few feet each day as the fire Travelled
along the prostrate tree.
He slept as best he could by night, and
by day never lost sight Of his fire. Once
an antlered buck came within rife shot,
but Beller had the chagrin to see his rife
leaning against tree, with the buck be.
tween him and the weapon. He hallooed
at intervals each day, and the noise at
last brought hunter to his aid. Beller
was then haggard wretch, his clothing
burned in many places and his fingers
both burned and frozen. He believes
that he could not have held out two days
longer. New York Sun.

The purple cleaning stretches its fingers far

am tired Of starlight, filling the air with a

Lovers Of the mysterious will be in
terested in this authentic story. Two
years ago the portraits of President Har.
rison, Mrs. Harrison and DR.. Scott were
reproduced in a group on glass. Several
copies were made. Each portrait was
colored and touched mp by the artist who
took the group. One of these pictures
was given to near relative of the presi
dent, who lives in Baltimore The por
traits were all good Gkenesses. and she
priced them very highly Here is where
the mysterious part comes in. About
three months before Mrs Harrison's
death the colors in her picture ON the
glass commenced to fade. When she
died, only the head was visible, and that
family.
Then the same phenomenon was OBJ
served in DR.. Scott's portrait. II began
to grow DINNER and DINNER until only
the head remained DR.. Scott died with
In few weeks of his daughter The
curious part of the matter is that Presi

clear and strong as it did on the day it
was finished. The same colors were usct!
on all these portraits. and there is no ap
parent reason why one should not las;

The strange, eventful history of the

Jay Gould In Iceland.

Marie Jonreau writes me that when
she was travelling in Iceland she found
that of all our great countrymen the
only one who seemed to be familiar to
the Icelanders was Jay Gould. One Of
the first questions her native guide asked
her on learning that she was from Amer.
lea was: "You come from America. Per,
haps, then, You know Jay Gould? And
has he really more money than he can
ever countI' Even far in the interior Of
the island, where the people could speak
no English, they begged the guide to ask
her if she really knew or had ever seen
the wonderful Crpsus, who to them was
like some prince from the Arabian
Nights. Boston Globe.

A Lire Job.

The solitary man who pecks at a stone
step in front Of the capitol with his NAL
let and chisel does just enough pecliing
to keep warm. He does not care to hur-
ry his job, and nobody cares to hurry
him. The longer he is at it the longer
it will be before anybody has to provide
him with another job. The man himself
is not interesting, but as type he is
worth observing. His method is the uni
yersal one in government service. The
disposition to do the least possible work
in return for pay is manifest in all the
clerks desks in all the bureaus, and
something very much like it seems to
take hold upon congress itself now and
then. - Washington Cor. New York

We tell these shoulder-shrugRing and nous
tache-twisting Parisians that they had
better look out when they are In the
presence OF Americans. Americans will
not tolerate their plague. They can't
treat young Brother JONATHAN as II
no were old JOHN BULL They must
be respectful toward Americans In
France. II they want to get the money OF
American tourists. Americans are a self
asserting people, not destitute OF patriotic
pride, not so patient rs jon. not at all arro-
giant or ill-tempered. yet conscious OF their
inviolable Amercanism. They have grown
beyond duelling, but it is not safe to act
toward them as II they were Of timid dis
position. True. they speak the English
language. but they can't help that; aud we
may say that they like it.
There were 9,599 Americans living pcrma-
nently in Paris three months ago, when the
census OF foreign residents was taken.
and hundreds OF American tourists visit
the city every week OF the year. These
Americans spend lots of money in Paris IL
Is possible that they spend twenty millions
OF francs there every year; and this sum is
but small part OF the aggregate amount
which Parisans draw from Americans an
nually. Let the shuulder-shruggcrs think
OF this when they SEQ an American dressed
In French clothes and shelling out his dol
lars for their enrichment.
The Americans like France we'll, and they
give proof OF their liking for her. They APP
preciate the good qualities OF tho French.
and give them full credit for all their
merits. 1t is to be regretted that there are
some coxcombs among the French. mostly
In Paris.
The presumptuous part OF the French,
especially OF the Parisians. are hard to
get along with. because they talk 80
much against the people of other coun-
tries. They abhor the Germans, hate
the English, despise the Italians. dis
esteem the Spanlards. look askance at
the Austrians. slight the Begians. sneer at
the Hollanders and hold that Danes. Swedcs,
Norwegans. Swiss. Portuguese. and Turks
are OF no account. The presumptuous part
OF the French are possessed OF bad spirit
toward their neighbors. Just now France
and Russia are enamored OF each other; and
we are glad OF it, for the sake OF France.
The French had better not offend their
American friends.
The craziest thing that Monsieur Ora
PAUD can do Is to confound Brother JoNA-
THAN with JOHN BULL.

govern himself by previous instructions.
What were those previous instructions
SO far as they were written, and not verbal,
and so far as they have been communicated
TO Congress, they authorized WILLIS to an
nounce that the United States refused any
longer to acknowledge the Provisional Gov
eminent. and hereafter would recognize the
deposed colored woman "a the sole lawful
ruler OF the Hawaiian Islands. Nor was
this ALL The previous instructions author
lied WILLIS, in case the partisans OF LII

ian Government. and thus cause disorder
In Honolulu. TO use soldiers Of the United
States on the pretext OF restoring order.
On which side our troops would be EN-
ploycd. and which element of the popula-
tion would be put down by them as lawless
and disorderly. may he inferred from the
whole tenor Of the instructions to WILLIS,
which describe the Government OF President

CLEVELAND as the product OF usurpatlon.

to rule at Honolulu.
We repeat that II. at a date 80 late as
Dec. &c. Minister WILLIS demanded the alb
dication OF the Hawaiian Government, q
proceeding tantamount to an act Of war. we
must infer that, during the twenty-one
days following the reassembling Of Con-
gress. Mr.. CLEVELAND deliberately re-
Trained from recalling his instructions to
his envoy. In the dishonest hope that they
might be executed during the interval.
Should the reports from Honolulu prove to
be founded on fact. as now appears prob
able. the theory that Mr.. CLEyELAND's
conduct In the hawaiian business has been
due to ignorance and wrongheadedness will
have to be abandoned. and the people will
have to fall back on the assumption that he
is guilty Of deception and treachery toward
a coordinate branch OF the Government.
