AN ALL-NIGHT SCARE.
A Young Englishman's Experience with a
Stuffed Bear.

Stuffed Bear.
Young Englishmcn visiting the Unit
ed States have as many absurd and
amusing experiences as Americans
have when in foreign countries. The
Washington Star tells of an English
Traveller who had been assured that
west of the Missouri river the entire
country was infested with bears, some
Of which we're so bold that they came

He stopped in a Kansas village, and
i'll the evening started out for a walk.
The stores were closed, but the moon
was shining brightly. He rambled
about the place for n COUPLE of houa s,
and started down the business street
Tor the hotel. Suddenly he saw before
him on the sidewalk Il big bear, sitting
on its launches, with open mouth and
paws extended.
In moment he was on top of porch,
crying for help, but no one heard him.
and the bear sat and watched him. All
night long he stayed there, trembling

At daybreak some men came along
and one of them wheeled the bear back
to the doorway with the remark: 81

Of the walk"
The tourist descended from the porch
without detection, and had he not sub
sequently enjoyed the story so much
that he told it himself, it would never
have been known.

SAVE THE MOMENTS.

Save the precious moments. Many
a scrap or bit of time will be wasted,
many an odd or leisure hour will be
lost, unless we are wide awake and
full Of energy. There are no means
OF computing the results of wisely
improved scraps Of time. Burritt, the
world-renowned author, mathemati-
clan astronomer, and linguist, started
out in life a poor blacksmith, and
owed all his great achievements to the
improvement of the hours that COM
mon laborers usually waste. One of
the best scholars and greatest rnathe-
. maticians of America acquired his
knowledge Of algebra and the rudi
ments Of Latin and Greek while work
ing on farm, and, having to work
hard without rest day except rainy
days. but when it rained, and dur
ing hours taken from sleep. he dill
gently applied himself and became
master. The man whom every Ten
nesseean loved to honor, ex-President
johnson, began business life when he
did not know the alphabet. He had
to work hard every day to maintain
his wife and child. An intimate friend
and associate of Mr.. Johnson's an
eminent lawyer. said to the writer: II
knew Andy johnson from his boy.
hood-was an intimate friend with
him. He did more manual labor than
any other man | was ever acquainted
with, and at the same time he did
more reading and studying than any
professional man or student / ever
knew" 1t was the improvement of
the time wasted by the great masses
that made the poor journeyman tailor
the seventeenth President Of the
United States. There are very few
lsboring people, especially young
people, but that could devote two
hours out OF every twenty-four to
study; then, in addition, many bits or
scraps OF time might be added. Two
hours day would give thirty days for
study each year. At that rate it
would give one year to study III every
twelve. What mighty things this
would accomplish in driving ignor.
ance from the world! What pleasure
it would bring! And, above all, what
usefulness might be attained! To do
this 10 no child's play; it requires a
strong will, a mighty courage, and a
high purpose. But it will pay u
thousandfold for all it costs. Who
will try it?-Southern Telescope.

It 1EaAss the Positloa q RrsslAsat 0as
OF Many Tr1Aln. --


OF Many TE1A1A.
AT the beginning of every admins
tration Washington fills up with per-
sons who desire some Office either in
the states, in the departments or in
the foreign service, writes ex-Presi-
dent Harrison in Ladies' Home Jour
nal, discussing 1.-THE Presidential Of
fee" Many of these persons have q
limited purse, and as the days pass on
this is exhausted and impatience and
ill-temper come in. Many of these per-
sons are deserving and well-fitted to
fill the Offices they desire. But it is
impossible to find places for all the
deserving, and the position of the pres
ident is full of trial. The suspense and
uncertainty that the Office seeker suf-
fcrs is illustrated by the case of man
from my own state who thought he had
good reason to expect an appointment
from President Garfield. After he had
been weeks ut Washington, and had
brought to bear all the influence he
could command. 1 met him one day on
the street and asked him how he was
getting along. His answer was: every
we'll, very well, but there is nothing
focal yet" It was wonderfully express
sive, and has remained in my memory
as Il type of the state of uncertainty
which accompanies office-seeking.
Nothing focal yet" but hope that is
hard to kill.
There are few offices at Washington
the salaries of which enable the incum-
bent to save any money, and the aver
age experience of those holding places
in the dc; mrtments, I am sure, is, If
they would express it, that private
business offers better returns and gives
better chance for advancement.

Robert u. Evans. the new president Of the Rubber

floor of the building at No. Sc Reade-st. yesterday
and denied himself to representatives OF the press
who went to inquire about the alleged DIVISION IN

blinely opened the presidents door about three
quarters of an nch and. in subdued accents asked
if Mr. Evans would see Tribune reporter.

At the reporters request the clerk asked II the
president would not kindly consent to be seen later
at his convenience. The reply Vac not encouraging
and the door was slammed from the inside.

"No-not as they can tell. There's been too much
printed in the paoers about 1t anyway Besides
that $4,000 story is lie out Of whole cloth
why do you think so?'
The clerk opened his mouth and might have re-
piled but Just at the moment fierce looking man
with stiff black hair appeared and gave the clerk
a stare OF surprise that caused the latter TO turn
three degrees paer than his normal color The
frightened clerk beat hasy retreat. and the herce
