themselves into q mood of peaceful
contentment; but even such persons
are not quite satisfied-they are look
ing, hoping, toiling for something bet.
ter. They have put their discomfort
to good use-made it a servant rather
than q master. This seems to give us
a reason for the existence of dissatis-
faction. 1t is our spur and stimulant,
the key to all our progress.
Disconnected then, in certain
sense, we must be; but we need not be
hopeless and desponding. Our hope
and discomfort should 60 hand in
hand, and vast deal OF true cheerful
ness is compatible with both. What
we must fight against is pessimism,
selfish disgust with all our surround
ings, surrender to the drift of sordid
circumstances. True sorrow will come,
but it will ennoble and not lower us.

THEATRICAL UPS AND DOWNS.

Wife of u Millionaire.
The vicissitudes of the theatrical
life are brought out in plain relief by
the marriage OF Charlotte Nelson to
j. H. Neill, which took place few
days ago in New York. Miss Nelson
came to San Francisco from New
York few weeks ago to accept an
engagement with the Frawley Com
pany. Before she could take the
train, however, she had to telegraph
to Manager Frawley for money with
which to buy a ticket, and when she
had completed her long trip across
the continent she found herself al
most penniless. Her streak of ill-luck
Was not at an end, however, as she
had played but few days when she
was compelled to make the shocking
admission that she had but two cos
tunes suitable to wear on the stage.
AS the manager of the company
would not admit an actress of so
limited a wardrobe to remain in the
company, Miss Nelson soon found
herself without a position when she
had hardly earned money enough to
pay her expenses from New York to
San Francisco.
But right here Miss Nelson's luck
changed. On the train bound for
New York she met J. II. Neill, a
planter from Guatemala, worth several
millions of dollars. The exigencies of
travel made a chance acquaintance.
A few days they were friends. When
the train reached New York they were
lovers. Shortly after the engagement
was announced, and Miss Nelson did
not have to trouble herself about
new part every week or bother her
pretty head about getting costumes.
The marriage ceremony was performed
very quietly and unostentatiously
few days ago. The wedding breakfast
was served at the Hoffman, and prep
arstions were made by the newly mar
ried couple for the long Journey to
their Genital American home. Fifty
thousand dollars was the present re.
ceived on her wedding day.

Since the service was put into ope
ration in its present form in 1871 to
the close of the last year, there have
been nearly 5000 disasters, the value
of the property involved being over
$S1 100000. Through the efficiency
of the service over 10000, 900 of this
property was saved. while of the 49,
900 persons whose lives were i'm
perilled only sos were lost. During
this period of twenty-four years the
cost of maintaining the service was 4
little over $9,O0O.000.

The Farmers, Discontent.

A most frequent characteristic with
many people is a discomfort which,
while 1t may not be actual unhappi.
ness, yet fails to allow them ever to be
entirely happy. In some cases this is
exaggerated to absolute pessimism and
despair in others it is simply falling
short of complete satisfaction.
A strange feature of this discomfort
is the fact that it prevails quite as fire.
quently where circumstances are
bright as where they are clouded. So
often is it the case with the farmer.
He will worry over his crops. What
is to be, must be, and the farmer has
less cause to worry than others in
mercantile pursuits. He is sure of a
living at least. He can raise enough
wheat for his bread, enough hogs for
his meat, enough potatoes for his fam
ily's use, enough to feed his stock over
winter, and, although with a poor
yield he may make but little money,
yet he is always sure of good, substan-
tial food for himself and family. If he
we're living in city where rent was at
least $40 per month, grocery bill $50,
etc, bad debts to collect, trying to find
market for his goods, or, if working
on salary, during "bard times" was
to be discharged, or, as his employer
might put it, "laid-off" until business
would justify his Reinstatement, he
would live but a short time under
these difficulties.
A farmer, although he has his mis-.
fortunes as we'll as others, should be
the happiest OF mankind. Discomfort
ia by no means a monopoly of the
poor, the afflicted, the unsuccessful !;
such persons are often marvelously
cheered and contented in their lives.
Want does not cause it, nor wealth
dispel it. Those who, to judge from
appearances, have everything to graf
ify their tastes, their wishes, their am
bition, are often the least satisfied at
heart. 1t is not prosperity that makes
a person happy, nor luxury or fame.
A lurking discomfort will take the
brightness from all these, will poison
all the well-springs OF comfort.
There are persons who, from a noble
sense OF duty and unselfishness, school

TELL THE TRUTH.
A Little Conflict Of Ideas That
Needs Fitting Together.

A LittIe Conflict OF Ideas That
Needs Fitting Together.
The New York Tribune joins with
the Iron Age in predicting prosperity
for our iron and steel industries be-
cause of the prospect Of good crops.
After referring to the increased de-
mand of the railroads for rails and
other materials owing to the probable
increase in grain freights, the Tribune
OF June IL says: "Belief that agri-
cultural makers and makers of wire
fencing would have large demands
from farmers have all helped
to stimulate buying of iron and its
products" But this is an edit orial
on " Business" written by practical
business man. In the next column
OF the same issue the partisan poll.
tician hack gets in his brilliant and
original theory Of the revival in our
industries. He says: "The people
were assured last fall that voting for
the restoration of power to the Re.
publican party would bring back pros
perity. The certainty that
power had been transferred was
enough OF itself to light thousands of
fires and to open the doors of thous-
ands OF factories and mills"
Which is right, the iron Age, organ
of our great iron and steel industries,
and the Tribune's financial editor, or
the narrow partisan who tries to gull
his readers into believing that merely
voting for John Jones instead of Will.
liam Smith, started up all our idle
furnaces, mills and factories? What
do the sensible business men of the
country, who know that the prosper.
ity of any industry depends on the de-
mand for the goods made by it, think
of the leading Republican papers idea
that trade is regulated by the political
complexion OF Congress?
A correspondent suggests that the
Tribune should discharge either its
financial editor or its high tariff hack.
Or it should allow the latter to tell the
truth occasionally, even though party
interests would suffer.

ANDREW Carnegie is quoted by his
New York manager as saying: "The
country at large does not realize the
boom which has started in the indus
trial world. Iron and steel mills all
over the country have contracted their
full capacity for months ahead and
many are actually unable to take addi-
tional orders. Since the bulk of their
contracts were booked there has been
an advance of fifty cents in pig iron.
This fall consumers will find that
they cannot place orders. The coun.
try is ON the threshold of the biggest
revolution in business it has ever ex-
perieneed, and it is not long way off,"

There is some advantage in being
special policeman. That is what Tom
Thompson thinks. That is not his real
name but it will serve the purpose of
this story, which is a true tale. Tom
was special who thought that to carry
2 club and look dignihed and dangerous
were the climax of existence. Tom
Thompson got his place on 1.-The force"
because he had "luh JOence." The other
night Tom Thompson was not on duty
and for some reason he did not tell the
chief where he intended to spend the
evening.
1mere is q house on lower Jackson
street that has not borne a very good
reputation among the people of the
vicinity aud Chief Wilkerson concluded
that he would suppress" il. SO he set
o,a of his "warchers" who was q
friend of Tom Thompson to keep
Al eve on the house. He
watched faithfully until very late, when
he saw a man stealthily approach the
place. He was admitted and the watch
er fastened 10 the police station where
he informed the clloI OF what ne ndO
seen. He accompanied the other Of
ficers to the place. Tom Thompson was
not with the officers because be was not
on duty He would have been delighted
with the prospect of "raid" if he had
been.
The door of the house was promptly
forced open. and the woman they were
after was found. There was a scurrying
of feet on the stairs, which indicated
which way her companion had gone,
and the police followed. In an upper
room they found the man, who was nc
other than Tom Thompson himself Il :
was covered with confusion and but little
else. Tom Thompson soon recovered his
dignity however, and he demanded to
know why the police had intruded upon
the privacy of a member of the "foorce.'
Explanations followed and the public
never knew the result of the ''raid" on
the Jackson street house. That is why
Tom Thompson says that there is some
advantage in being a Especial" though
he has not been On duty this week.
