Street Car Incident.

An Augusta lady tells of curious in
cident that occurred in a street car be-
tween Boston and Maiden one day last
week. 1t is the more interesting as the
lady can vouch for the truth of the story
having witnessed the incident herself. A
rough looking old fellow with a curiously
Irregular looking bundle got aboard and
deposited the bundle in a vacant place be-
side him. A few minutes had passed
during which some of the curious in the
car unsuccessfully endeavored to divine
the contents of that package when a
woman got aboard and the old man took
the bundle in his lap to make room for the
lady to be seated. Seated she was after
the somewhat abrupt manner noticeable
in street cars and when she got up a few
minutes later it was apparent she sat ON
something other than the seat proper.
Traces of broken egg were on her clothing
and that of her seat mate 1t then trans
PRED that the old man had a hen in his
bundle and that the hen had laid an egg
on the seat. Truly the adventures on
street cars would make readable volume.

When you 20 through an Indian camp,
you can see red and green sacks standing
against the sides of the tepacs, carried ON
the backs of little girls by means of &
blanket which is fastened at the waist
with q broat! leather belt or being rocked
to and fro by the wind in the boughs of
cottonwood trees. These sacks arc Indian
cradles Sometimes, if the camp is going
on long journey in search of game or for
water, or to escape war party, two of
these sacks are fastened together by stout
straps and swung over the back of pony,
one dangling on each side, like the baskets
on pack mule. But as a rule the horses
are left for the men and boys to ride and
the papooses are either carried by the girls
or packed away on a "travoise" which is
the only wagon the Indians haye.-New

MODERN LETTER WRITING.
Conciseness and Brevity Characterize the
Fashionable Correspondence of Today.

Fashionable Correspondence of Today
The letter writing of today bears little
or no resemblance to the letter writing of
former times. The pace at which we live
the rush and hurry of each day, are an
sWerable, in part at least, for the change
from long letters concerning the topics Of
the day, political and social, to the merest
notes on purely personal matters. The
letter writer of today, unlike mis- prcdeces-
sor, does not contide his experiences
whatever form they may have taken-to
his friend and correspondent, and if he
has anything worth saying on any partic-
ular subject ne rushes into print forth
with, into the pages Of one or other of the
many magazines or into the daily or
weekly newspapers. The admirable die
ton, the vigorous English, the polished
periods, the telling epigrams in the care
full and well thought out essays Of the day
are not to be found as heretofore in private
correspondence, but in magazine and jour
nalistic literature.
The decided bias of the times is never to
write letter when note will answer the
purpose, never to write u note when card
will suffice and oftener than not to send
'wire" in lieu of either note or letter. The
points in the notes Of the day, which have
superseded letters, are concseness and
brevity, to write without preamble of any
kind and to go to the root Of the matter at
once. Now almost Geographic concisencss
is the mode adopted and aught else would
read out of date. In truth, kilograms have
had not little Go do in forming the pres
ent style of letter writing and have taught
economy in the use of words. 1t may be
said that the letters of today are the direct
antithesis of those of yore. Then too, many
subjects could not se broachcd and COM
mented upon; now the reverse is the rule,
and to keep to one subject only, and that
in the fewcst words, is what society af
fccts; hence the brief notes we all receive
and write. Yet brief rs they are, q clever
man or a talented woman conveys in a
sentence or two the gist Of the whole mat
ter, epigrammatical il neatness and subtly
humorous.

"The Monarch will win" is
an expression heard in bicycle
races oftener than anything else.
IL has not yet been heard here
because Monarch Bicycles have
not yet been introduced, but
when they are they will not take
second place in speed, weight or
quality of material.
The Monarch is just what its
name implies, the King of bicy-
cles, and we are authorized agents
for the Hawaiian Islands.
This wheel is made by COM
pany whose standing in the manu-
featuring world is at the head;
they are putting money in their
wheels and selling them at low
pfice because they are not anx-
ious to made themselves rich in
q year. For that reason they
have put the price within the
reach of everyone.
The coming models in the
Monarch are Nos s, 8, 10, IL and
u. These include racing and
ladies' wheels. They are fitted
with either Demon or king
fisher" lamps, and with this on
the front end you can see so far
ahead of you that night riding is
more of pleasure than you have
been used to. With a Monarch
Bicycle you don't have to keep a
lamp on the back to keep drivers
from running over you; the
mechanism Is such that a high
rate of speed is attained without
much muscular power.
Oar prices of the genuine
Monarch wheel will be twenty
five per cent less than you ever
heard of first class bicycle be-
ing sold for. We can do it be-
cause we are the manufacturers
agents and have no middle mans
profits to pay. Call at our store
and examine our Agency papers
and secure handsomely illus
trated catalogue.
A second hand Columbia safety
can be had of us very cheap, the
owner wishing to dispose of il
and buy Monarch.
If you are sceptical call on us
and learn that the place to buy
the best bicycle is at:
