and His Gruff Customer.
AS he threw himself back into the
embrace Of the cushioned chair of a
Union square barber shop he scowled
ficrccly at the barber and buried his
face in the newspaper But the barber
didn't mind the ugly opening He
leaned over, garroted the tonsorial pa.

a razor once or twice along the strop he
began mildly;

The barber looked startled, but he
tried again.

weather now.
Thanks, " was the answer, Il know
how 10 read myself "
AT this rebuff the barber kept 81
lence. But he shaved against the grain,
twcaked the other nose and daubcd
soap INTO the corner of his mouth The
gruff man swore softly, the barber
smiled, and as "a final act of violence
grabbed the other by the top Of the scalp
and twisted his head until the cervical
vertebrH ereaked again
Say, cried the gruff man, my
head AIN no roulette wheel .
But still the barber shaved on in 81

the skin So close that it showed ragged
under the blade. Then, leaning over, he
grabbed handful Of raw aud tender
skin and rolled 1t between his fingers
until the other groaned aloud As the
tear drops stole down the scarifed face
the barber administered the final taunt
Do you shave yourself sir
"No, romcd the gruff man, leaping
up in thu chair, L shave my grand

Charles Kingsley.

Without pretending that Kingsley is
great novelist, there are scenes. es-
pecially descriptive scenes, in IVY
patia,' in Westward How which
belong to the very highest order of
literary painting, and have hardly any
superior in the Iomances of our era. No
romances, except Th ckerays have the
same glow of style in such profusion
and variety; and Thackeray himself
was no such poet of natural beauty as
Charles Kingsley poet, be it remem-
bered, who by sheer force of magma
ton could realize for US landscapes and
climates of which he himself had no
sort of experience. Even Scott himself
has hardly done this with so vivid a
brush-The Forum,

seriously object to placing Nicaragua
and Salvador on an equal footing with
themselves. If, however, the Central
American States are ever to have pros
perity and stability there must come
some form of federal union.

ON the board for directors
The report of Supervisor Uinckley,
was Il very encouraging one. The
current receipts for the year were
S9l49.97; the expenditures were SD Ga
less, and the bills are practically all
paid. Supervisor Hincklev announced
gift sufficient to build IA new cottage
from Thomas NJ. Hall, New York, and
$1,000 for the proposed Girls home from
Mrs. J. IL. Plummer of South Berwick,
Me. Aside from these sums there are
now in the banks to the credit of the
treasurer $415G, on S2O25 Of which the
interest alone can be used. The fund
for the Girls Home now amounts to
Sll53.
The school building is progressing
favorably. The contractors expect to
have it ready for occupancy in October
or the first of November
The cottage presented by Mr.. Thomas
NJ. Hall of New York, is given in
memory of his sister, Miss Louisa Hall
deceased, and will be known as the Hall
Cottage. 1t will be constructed this
summer and will be the home of - more
boys.
Good VIII Home was established six
years ago with one small cottage and
three boys, now there are cottages
with Is boys in each, large barn, a
building used for office, school and stor.
age purposes, fine school building in
process of construction, another cottage
to be built this season and other cottages
and an industrial school building
looming up in the near future, and
no debts hanging over the institu-
tion. Surely this is success.

at Poland Springs. The latter event oc-
Cured on Monday last and while it was
not equal to the original ceremony in

if large concourse of people, eminent

such occasions; and they most certainly
do. Among those in attendance were

DULUTH, Mimi, April 2.-This was
the last day of the Duluth board of
trade in its present quarters, and ii
was a day of jollification and horse
play for the mostpart. The fact that
Chicago had no market also had a
depressing effect on business, and the
result was that trading here was duh
and of very small proportions There
was small business inzcash stuff. The
mills took about S,G09 blu. May opened
at 60l2c, advanced to 6G3sc, and ruled
steady. July started at 6IBc and sold
up to 1sc near the close. Only one
trade in September was reported, at
5912c. The close was &c lower than
and 1sc lower for July and September.
Trading stopped a few minutes be-
fore the regular hour, and a band was
brought on the floor and played "Old

3. Mexico also demands indemnity
for the expenses of the mobilization
of her troops, and of situating au-
thorities and employees in suitable
places for public security on the
frontier.
4. Mexico asks that the labors of
the boundary commission, in &c
cordance with the treaty of 1882, be
speedily concluded, said treaty not
being open to discussion.
