At Albany in 1881.

The best story that I failed TO get into
print concerned story which never was
written says a writer in the New York
Nail and Express.
Conkling and Plat had resigned from
the United States Senate and the legisla-
tive session of 1881 had dragged along into
the summer months because the legislat-

paper man at the capital was under or
ders from his editor to get along with as
little sleep as possible
l sat one evening in the reading room of
the old Delavan when the correspondent
of a Western New York newspaper rush
ed excitedly and beckoned me 70 follow
him. On the sidewalk he said:
'One of the New York fellows has a
story which will be on the wire within an
hour of an attempt to buy a member of
the assembly from the extreme western
part of the state. Tt is a circumstantial
story, and il it is printed in New York in

The correspondent who had it was so
elated over his success that he could not
find time 70 write il. He was spending the
evening in front of the Windsor bar, toast
ing himself and his paper. Along in the
neighborhood of IL O'Clock he was in no
condition to write.

wired his editor. Back came the order
TO drop the story. 1 was working on an
afternoon paper and the following morn
ing made up my mind to use the story
in my own paper | wrote two or three
columns and threw in such mass of har-
rowing detail that an editorial council was
called. 1t was decided that the story was
too rich for the paper, particularly as it
would hurt the stalwart end of the COM
bination, and that was the end my paper
was supporting.
Two or three days passed. In the assem-
bly, chamber the senator's and assembly
men were gathering for a joint session for
the purpose of taking another vote for
United States senators. There was an air
of suppressed excitement about the place,
and all hands were more or less unstrung.
The New York correspondent who had dis
covered the great story, came in and took
a seat beside me. His appearance betok-
ened hard siege. He ran his hand ire
mulously over his face few times and
then reproached himself for his foolish
ness.
IF had held myself together he said
land had written that story would have
made a hit
In less than fifteen minutes the legisla-
lure was in an uproar. Assemblyman
Bradley of Cattaraugus had arisen and
handed Lieut.. Gov. Hoskins an envelope
containing $3.50 which had been paid him
for his vote. There was the story.

He was All Face.

The Marquis of Lorne, when governor
general of Canada, was present at some
sports held on the ice of the St Law
renee, says an exchange. Though wrapped
in furs he felt the cold acutely, and was
astonished TO see an ancient Indian mean
dering around barefooted, enveloped only
in a blanket He asked the savage how
he managed to bear such a temperature
when he had so little on. "Why you no
cover face?' inquired the Indian. The
marquis replied that no one ever did So
and that he was accustomed to have his
face naked from birth. Good" rejoined
the prairie king, me all face" and walked
away.

A Maine man brought a suit in eject
ment against his neighbor for occupying
three inches of his land, and he was dis
eomhted no little when a survey proved
that he himself was the trespasser to the
extent of two feet and eleven inches. Then
the neighbor proved to him that all fairy
stories do not exist in books by shaking
hands and telling him he need not move
his fence. Human nature may be the same
the world over, but it is evident that diff

A list of deaths from snake bites and
wild beasts Is rather an unusual feature
to be found in countrys official reports
of mortality, and India is the only coun-
try Of the world which presents such sta
tistics. Last years mortality in that
country, includes 1,133 deaths from snake
bites and 291 from attacks of tigers and
other wild beasts. Owing to the religious
preiudices of the natives against taking
life snakes and wild beasts are not rap
idly eXtermnated, which no doubt ac-
counts for the large annual mortality. But
the British are getting in the work, and
next years mortality viii hardly be so

But this can give little comfort to the men

WOULD BETTER THE SYSTEM.

Minister Cooper laid before the
Board of Education yesterday a plan
which he deemed would work benefic-
tally to the school system. 1t pro-
vided for the appointment of two dep
uty school inspectors, one to have his
headquarters on Hawaii and the 9th
err on Maui. Each inspector was to
have supervision over all the schools
on his island and the school agents
would be dismissed. The Inspector
General would have direct charge of
the schools on Oahu and Kauai.
The Minister recommended Mr.. Glib
son for Hilo and mentioned Mr.. Har-
dy as fit man for Maui. The Min
ister's recommendation met with the
approval of the Commissioners and
the matter will come up later for final
action.

GREETING.

Christmas. The sound of the word
has delightful ring in ears of the
children, and it has for most of us "A
charming echo. TO those who know
and experience the worries and cares
of life it is well that there should be
some land mark some moment
when the inmost cupboard of the
heart can be opened, and little of
the spirit of love and kindness be
tilted out for the benefit of all who
come near. That little cruze in the
Utmost cupboard is a peculiar one;
it is like that of the widow. Draw on
1T as you will it never fails-and the
more you draw on it, the more boun-
tifully does it give forth.
One pities the curmudgeon, who,
like Scrooge, before his regeneration,
said, "Out upon Merry Christmas"
and then turning to his none too we'll
TODD nephew growled, What right
have you to be merry? What reason
have you to be merry? You're. poor
enough"
But thank God there are few Scroo-
ges in the world. Thank God that
there is kindness, and delicate good
feeling left in the world-one should
not say left, it grows. No weight of
wealth, no weight of worldly cares
can destroy that true kindness of
human nature which, in spite of all
that we try to crush it down with.
will bubble forth in pure well spring
of true love, not only for those VINO.
by natural ties, are dear to us, but FOR
those who are not so successful as we
are, or who are lonely and away from
their dear ones, or who we feel need
the love and sympathy that the sea
son calls forth.
After all human nature is not so
bad, though the cynic would make us
look on the dark side. From the very
worst come acts of kindness to their
fellow sinners, which make us know
that however the image of our God
may have been battered and married
in them, some saving spirit is left,
and so strong is the spirit, that, like
the setting sun, it can gild the dark
clouds of vice and despair and even
make them beautiful through its sof-
tening ray. Such light did the Sa-
-vior cast on the Magdalene. Such light
has love cast upon many another sim
ner since that great historical one.
But this is a gloomy vein, yet mirth
watch baby eyes you will see how
near they are together. We must look
at the brightest side of things at this
season which Christendom has set
aside for rejoicing. ~. o.
1t is happy thing that for twenty
four hours or so the medieval peace

enemies can meet as friends; that pol
iticians can forget their schemes; that
the busy marts are closed, and the
tired worker finds peculiarly holy

With this feeling in our hearts we
can all wish one another. and The

MERRY CHRISTMAS. We lay aside,
for the moment, any petty feelings of
