An Old Man Reads the News and Tells 1t
to His Customers.
Speaking of queer occupations" said
Fourth street merchant, there is an
old fellow down town who makes q good
living reading the newspapers. Of course
everybody reads the evening paper, but
in the rush of business the morning pa
pers may get lost in the shuttle. The old
man gets out of bed at an early hour
and gets copy of each of the morning
papers as early as they can be bought.
He then reads them exhaustively, and
by the time business men get down town
he has thoroughly mastered all branches
of the news of the day. He is we'll edu-
Gated and bright and has q keen percep-
ton. He then starts out, dropping in on
first one and then another of his sub
scribers, for he let's his services by the
week, just as u newspaper.
HE enters bank where everybody is
busy. He knows the likes and dislikes
of every one of his customers. and he en-
tertains each for n few moments with
the news of his choice, and then with a
few passing remarks about the general
news of the day passes on to the next.

day and the prices of silver. He knows
the latest in art and literature and is
thoroughly posted in politics. He is Il
walking cyclopedia. He is not only a
daily newspaper, but whole file of
newspapers, with lightning reference

and If asked will refresh your memory
on past events. He is strictly business,
and while he answers every question
asked by subscriber freely he abso-
lutely will not talk to the nonsubscriber.
"If you want to talk to him about the
happenings of the day, you must pay
weeks fee i'll advance. Then he will see
you every day for week. If you are at
your office regularly, he will come to
you daily, but if you fail to be on hand
there that is your loss. One beauty of
his system is that he has no bad debts.

ment is made at once you can't get the
old fellow to open his mouth. Pay him,
and he is ut your service.
"He is strictly business and does not re-
gard himself as an eXcrescence on the
face of business, nor is he so regarded
by his customers. He is IL kindly old

Cold Bride Bits.

During the bitter cold weather in win
ter much suffering is thoughtlessly in
flicted on horses by putting cold bride
bits into their mouths. If the person
who does this will apply his tongue to a
piece of iron on frosty morning, he will
understand mt once what the suffering to
the poor brntesi is. To slightly warm the
bits before putting them into the horses
mouth would require only small ex-
pendiiure o. labor. This can be done by

woman. Then I'll have to walk, for /

she drew her thin shawl more tightly over

He pressed the money into the woman's

suppresses the Sale of tho PAPER.

A circular was distributed through
the city Saturday afternoon, calling at
tention to sensational weekly paper
that would be offered for sale Sunday.
mayor Trout, after seeing copy, mott
fed the agent, Robert Hopcroft, that the
paper must not be circulated here. The
command Of the mayor was obeyed, and
considerable excitement prevailed in
consequence. AS much as 81 per copy
was offered for the paper, and it is
thought that over 1000 copies could
have beed sold. The whole interest
WAS caused by the supposition that the
paper in question would contain a very
sensational version of the Kennerly
affair. 1t is claimed by those who are
in position to know that the account
referred to differs but little from the
story published in the Roanoke papers.
An attorney for this journal is expected
in the city to-day to look after the
