An Indepsnd.n, Barber.

Here is an eniertain ing story about
Frenchman who was too proud TO
10 things which were against his prin"
ciples. The story is vouched for as an
actual fact by the man TO whom the in
incident happened. While travelling ia
Europe he stopped over night at Caen,
and noting that his hair was unduly
long he went to have il cut by the
local barber. He told the barber to
take off very little, but before the
scis sors had been at work many sec
Onds he noticed a favorite lock fall on
TO the calico jacket in which he had
been arrayed. Whereupon he reprOved
the barber for not following his in
Structions. upon which the man OBJ
served, in mingled tones of reproach
and iSmay:
Monsieur must permit me to do my
work in the way which seems best to
me; and what is more, / shall take off
some more"
Not at ALL" said the traveller: Il
tell you l want very little taken off.
and must insist upon your doing rs
direct YOU"
The barber. however, was not to be
put down in this way and said:
Monsieur, ii is possible that this is
how things may be done in England.
but here in France we are not slaves.

College Life.

How can ! secure a college course?
Judging from the numerous inquir-
les made concerning how young men
of limited means secure their college
education, | am led To believe that
Il few words ON this subject would
be highly appreciated. | feel conf
dent that thousand, of Young men
are denying themselves good col
lcgc education, men who might re-
ccivc the benefits thcrctrom a. well
a~ those who do. Thousands of
anxious hearts are longing for Il
place ON college roll, and peep in
10 the my,tcric, of the higher intel
lcctual realm. There is no reason
why these longing hearts should not
~ satisfied; there i no reason why
these young souls should thirst in
vain for college training. If a
young man has Il desire for college
course and has vigor, pluck and am
bition, let him matriculate. But,
you say, these traits will not pay the
expenses incurred in pursuing a
course, True, but proper appli-
cation of them will, almost without
exception, bring the desired result
There are more students of limited
means in American colleges to-day

Since there are scarcely ever more
than than ten men in a club, one
tenth of the men can earn their board
in this wise. Since economy is of
necessity the prevailing and govern
ing idea of many students, cannot
scrvation has been that the anxieties
and trials of student in securing
his financial support while in pur-
suit of knowledge is the best pass
port for the highest walks of educa-
tional life. Thousands of American
students every year, in eloquent
strains of oratory, bid adieu to their
Alma Mater, conscious that their
acquisition was due entirely to their
own cxertion. These same young
men when they enrolled felt as un-
certain OF the result as thousands of
others who, fearing the consequence,
hesitate, yet long to make the start,
in the educational career. OF the
former class we have nothing more
10 say except word of appreciation.
To the latter class, we say "whcrc,
there is will, there is a way" 1t
is for these latter thousands that we
have pcnncd these lines. If but
a single soul is endowed with Il
higher education, we feel as though
our feeble efforts were not in vain.

Question of Satulli's Transference Rests
With Him.

with HIN.
Washington, Nov. 10.-Mgr. Satolli
had an unusual number of callers at
his residence to-day and this evening
who came to see him regarding the an
nouncement this morning in the New
York Herald that he was soon to be re-
lieved of his post here by Mgr. Lauren
zillo, at present the papal representa-
tive in Holland.
archbishop Satolli is in total ignor-
ance of the matter, outside of this pub
lication,'' said Mgr. Sbaretti of the le-
cation. HE has not received any word
from the vatican touching the subject,
and can neither deny nor confirm the
report. The whole question rests with
1the holy father and in case he should
see fit to make change in his repre-
sentative it would be his right to do
So"
Mgr. Sbaretti regards Mgr. Lauren
zillo as an eminent ecclesiastical diplo-
mat and has nothing but praise to say
of him. He was asked if he would tell
when Mgr. Satolli intended to visit
Rome, and his reply was:
when Pope Leo XIII. sends for
him. q y :

Texas.
Dallas, Nov. 10.-Fitzsimmons and
party showed to a crowded house in
Music hall at the State Fair grounds
last night. Julian made this state
ment:
1--WE are staying in the southwest in
the hope of bringing off the fight with
Corbett, and have declined all offers of
engagements in the north and east. We
have confidence that Mr.. Stuart will be
able to arrange to pull off the fight in
Mexico, and we will remain in Texas.
Just the moment Stuart is ready in
Mexico 1 will be ready to deposit the
$4,000 side bet for Fitzsimmons and I
tell you Corbett will be hard to catch
about that time"
This being the headquarters of the
FLORIDA Athletic club, Fitzsimmons
made an extended speech to the audi
ence in which he covered the ground
taken by Julian, but in a much more
forcible manner.

Catarrh starts in the nasal passages,
affecting eyes, ears and throat, and is
in fact the great enecy of the mucous
membrane. Neglected colds in the head
almost invariably precede catarrh, caus-
ing an excessive flow of mucous, and If
the mucous discharge becomes inter-
rupted the disagreeable results of ca
tarrh will follow, such as bad breath,
severe pain across forehead and about
the eyes, a roaring and buzzing sound
in the ears and oftentimes very often
