Down in Nassau street is a dignified
lawyer and officer of the Twenty third
regiment named Pope From Mr.. Pope s
personal appearance it would be fair
toss up whether he would be taken for
o theological student or member Of
the bar. He had a case up the state the
other day and as he was returning to
town, wearing that peculiar self salts
fed smile II lawyer always has after a
winning fight, a stranger addressed him.
The stranger was evidently IA country
man and wanted to know how to get
through this big, wicked city without
touching it, He had probably been EN-
boldened by Mr. Pope's theological ap
pearance and legal smile to venture the
inquiry as to the nearest way to the
Cortlandt street ferry from the Grand
Central station.
Mechanically falling into his courtly
habit of cross examination, tho lawyer
drew his neighbor into conversation.
He was ready to tender the stranger the
freedom of the city if the latter should
change his mind and remain over night.
'Oh, amt afeared-I amt got no
time" explained the countryman.
"Thero is nothing to be afraid of, y
said Mr.. Pope in his sweetest manner.
Anybody who goes about his business
is just as sale in New York rs he would
be in Schohario county, provided his
business doesn take him around in dis
reputable places at night. "
''They say they's some mighty slick
men down there" said the man, with
a knowing grin.
Eyes. Here's case in this paper, y
said Mr. Pope, and he pointed out the
haring headlines of the last bunko job.
The old man carefully spelled it out:
"Says he was slick an looked like a
preacher, says he, and he began to
edge away from tho lawyer as if he had
suddenly recognized him. And when
he saw the latter behind him at the sta
ton afterward he broke into sharp
run. New York Herald.

A Yearly Newspaper.

What would you think of yearly
newspaper-one that is only printed
once through the twelvemonth? There
are at least two such in the world, and
there may be more. One is called The
Eskimo Bulletin. 1t is issued every year
at Prince of Wales Cape, Boring strait,
on the arrival at that isolated place of
the yearly steamer. This brings news
from the outer world, and the paper
that has something to print besides its
local news, that everybody knows at
any rate. The other paper is printed in
Paris, and it comes out once a year now,
Just to preserve its name, The Twentieth
Century. Its publishers think that will
be very fine name for journal when
the twentieth century is actually here,
and for fear some one will get ahead Of
them in it they will issue their paper
once year until 1900, and thus DO first
in the field New York Times.

In the center of tho other glass case
the light falls on magnificent coat Of
red velvet embroidered in gold. This
was presented to Napoleon when no was
FIRST consul by the city Of Lyons. A
quaint anecdote is attached to it. One
morning at st. Helena General bertrand
paid his respects to his exil,d master,
accompanied by his little granddaugh-
ter. "How badly you are dressed, my
child" remarked Napoleon to his ju-
venile visitor. But, sire, how cam she
help it?" replied the general. Here in
e. Helena it is next to impossible to
buy anything worth having.
"Wait moment" said Napoleon to
the little girl. ~ am going to find you
something for frock. As no spoke he
went to drawer, opened 1t. took out
his own first consul's coat and placed it
over tho child's shoulders, saying, with
a laugh. "Hore, this is for you. Gen

SPEED VERSUS SAFETY.
A Sea Captain Tells How and Why He
Must Make Quick Time.

Must Make Quick Time.
A passenger ON one of the European
liners made IA jocose remark to the cap
tain one night as they were chatting
tamiliarly on deck.
"You sea captains" he said, ''are
! shc only absolute sovereigns now left in
the world. When the ship leaves port,
, your will is law. Every one ON board
recognizes your supreme authority.
From your decisions there are no ap-
peals. Every life is in your keeping.
You are sea kings indeed. "
mo, we are bondmen of the con-
fny managers, was the bluff old car
Tins reply. I'VE are under obliga
tions to make fast runs, yet never te
take any risks. 1t is no longer possible
for the captain of first class liner to
exercise discretion.
why, on my last run across the At
lantic, he continued, rapidly warming
up, Il had bad weather nearly all the
way. When the wind was not blowing
gale, there was dense fog, and didn t
lare to run at full speed. The ship was
80 hours behind time in reaching New
York. -
The captain and the passenger were
intimate friends and talked without re-
straint.
Il went to the main Office, " the cap
| tain continued, land was received cold
ly by the manager, He told me that
had made very poor run. | tried to
explain how bad the weather had been,
but he listened impatiently. He re-
minded me that other ships leaving
England ON the same day had arrived
much earlier, although they must have
had similar weather. He said that the
day for cautious, old fashioned captains
had gone by The reputation of ship
for speed must be maintained, and cap
tains must be brisk and wide awake, on
their usefulness would be at an end.
"You may have noticed, " the captain
added after pause, that we have been
running at full speed all day in a heavy
fog. Your king has been profting by
the reprimand which he received, and
he hasn't known comfortable moment
until the fog lifted All hour ago,
$50 you see that the kings of the sea
are the managers bondmen. II they
are cautious and avoid risks, they art
considered sleepy and slow. If they are
venturesome and the ship goes wrong
then they are condemned as foolhardy
That's the tyranny Of the sea, even i
we are kings ON deck "-Philadelphi;

A Dog Habit.

Have you ever thought why it is that
. dog turns around and around whom he
jumps up on his cushion or starts to set
Ito himself anywhere for nap? Now
that you are reminded, you can recall
that you have seen dog do it many
times, can't you? THIS habit is about
all that is loft to our tame little doggies
Of the days long ago, when they were n
race Of wild animals and lived in the
woods. Their beds then were matted
grass and leaves. and it was to tramplo
enough grass and properly arrange the
leaves that tho dog always trod around
. narrow circle before no would lie
down. The dog of today keeps up the
snme old habit, although there is Nc
longer any need for it, and of course the
animal has no notion why he does it, -

On Saturday, the 9th, inst, Athens

sary. The day was tlae and nearly
every member was present. There
were also present quite number of in
yited guests. and members from Madl-
son and Skowhegan Oranges. State

expected to be present to address the

ness.
The meeting was formally opened at

strumental followed by pleasant and
appropriate remarks by Bro. Alonzo
Smith of Skowhcgan Grange, and by
several others occupied the time until
noon. when recess was taken until two
O'Clock, p. NJ.
The Grange then repaired to the din
ing hall, where they partook OF one OF
those bountiful and appetzing "Grangc
Feasts" the sisters know so well how to
prepare, and though $50 patrons par
took thereof and were made happy
thereby, yet there was enough left Tor
quite a multitude.
The program for the p. NJ, was very
interesting, consisting of declarations,
reading, vocal and Instrumental mu-
sic. etc, also very interesting paper
read by Mr.. Alonzo Smith. Worthy
Master c. II. Jones gave short history
of our Grange since its organization in
1883.
One quite remarkable feature OF
Athens Grange is that not one OF It's
nineteen charter members has died and
that all but one, Who is now living II
the West, have been active paying
members ever since their organization
and, moreover, they were all present at
this, their eleventh anniversary, and fol
n short time occupied the same oilicia
chairs they did in 1883.
In its early days Athens Grange, like
many others, had hard struggle tt
hold its own, but by the persistence ant
hard work of its members it has not
| only sustained itself tut has grown into
an organization OF which its members
| may Justly feel proud Its members
now number lao, drawn from amons
the best men aud women in the town
1t has recently admitted 81 new mem
bers, of which u were initiated at on'
time. If any town in Maine OF NJ"
more than 1000 inhabitants can bea
this we would be pleased to hear iron
them. f. V. b.
