Real Young Mobility.

A lady was on visit to an old friend
whom she had not seen for several
years. The friend was telling her
about the the various members of the
family, and. referring to her son,
exclaimed. "He is just prince OF a
boym, yr;, uso y ,bo ,odv
thought to herself, and 80 she listened
and watched to see if the lad really de-
served them, or whether it was his
mothers fondness that prompted her
to use them.
A day or so afterward the mother
called the boy to come and amuse the
Youngest child of the household while
She did some necessary sewing. Tne
lady doubted his willingness to resign
his pleasure. But he dropped his hoop
at once, and obeyed the summons
cheerfully. She began to realize then
that his mother was right in what
she had said about him: and she was
almost sure of it day or two later,
when she saw him cut into halves a
handsome red apple that had been
presented to aim, and give one half 10 a
ragged boy. She was thoroughly salts
fed that the lad was truly "a prince OF
boy"
All should take to heart this lesson,
and strive to become in their own way
princes and princesses, cultivating the
traits of obedience, kindness, and un-
selfishness.

The Tides.

The following is given in brlrf as
the theory most generally entertained
by scientists, with a few exceptions,
concerning tides 1t is assumed that
the moon, acting alone, would not only
raise wave on the side of the earth
nearest to it by gravitation, but would
also draw the earth itself far enough
out of it's course to leave behind some
of the water on the further side, which
water would then be raised relatively
to the earth's surface and constitute
the second tidal wave ; the sun alone
would act similarly, although its tide
raising effect is only about two-fitths
that Of the moon. Now, at new moon,
the sun and moon pull together and
give higher tides than at the first and
third quarters, when the sun draws its
right angles to the line of the moons
attraction, and, at the full moon, when
the sun is OH the opposite side of the
earth from the moon, virtually the
same effect is observed as at new moor; ;
but the double tide raising action OF
the sun would again be super-imposed
on that of the moon and give tides on
opposite sides as high as those fort
night ago.-Electrical Student.

PERFECTLY ABSURD.

Ridiculous Charge Made Against a
Well-Known Railroad Man.
The San Francisco Chronicle published
an article yesterday concerning suit for
damages brought against the Southern
Pacific Company by man named
Thresher, who was lately put off train
at Colfax for using what was claimed to
be scalped ticket.
In the course of its article the paper
states that latter leaving Truckee NJ. V.
Murray, the scalped-ticket expert, came
along and asked Mr.. Thresher for his
tickets. which were produced. Murray
then demanded the passengers sigma
ture, which was also cheeriully furnished.
1t did not, however, suit Murray's ideas
of chirography, and he, in an insulting
manner, took possession of the tickets
aud told Mr.. Thresher that he would have
TO leave the train"
The idea of Martin V. Murray ever
using insulting language to any man is
absurd. Mr.. Murray has been many long
years i'll the service of the company as
conductor and ticket agent on overland
trains between this city and Truckee, and
Is personally known to thousands OF trav-
elers, as well as to the people Of this city,
where be lives.
If ever there was a man entitled to the
special distinction of being known as q
gentleman, such distinction belongs to
Mr. Murray, for more polite and gem
tlemanly man never lived. If all the
other statements made in connection with
the incident are no truer than that IN ref
erence TO his conduct on the occasion re-
ferred TO, 1t is sale TO say the plaintiff has
no case.
