REALITIES OF life.

This is the season when the wise young
man spreads his wings and fits from col
lege. Sometimes he talks Latin before he
goes and often he discusses difficult sub
jects in ponderous English. He is in his
glory just now and it is well. When he
begins to rub up against the world he will
learn that his education is just commenc-
ing and that his studies cannot be regu-
lated by any rules laid down in the books.
He may be little raw at first, and it may
seem that many of his age have got ahead
of him, but IL he has improved the time
while he has been at college the mental
training he has had will tell in the end
provided first and always, that he is wei
stocked with that commodity known al
common sense.

straure Fish From the Bermudas.

DR.. E. H. Bean, the superintendent
of the New York aquarium, returned
from the Bermudas recently and brought
with him. several interesting specimens
of fish peculiar to Bermudan waters.
There were beautiful flatfish, with opal
bodies, tinged with rainbow hues, in
cluding purple, crimson. bright green
and bright blue. They are known as
angel fish and are to the finny tribe
what the gorgeous plumed peacock is to
the fowl creation.
There was a slate colored fiatfish,
which Assistant Superintendent Spencer
called surgeon, or doctor fish, and Of
which little is known.
Another tank contained groupers,
whose sides are striped like those Of
tigers and leopards
There were also ten hind fish, each
from 10 to 10 inches in length. The
bodies are white, with brown and red
spots. Two squirrel fish, each 10 inches
long, were included in the collection.
They are similar to our goldfish, except
ing that their eyes resemble those Of

blanoe than any other, though there
are wide divergences.
The Texas ranger wears no uniform.
His dress Is composed Of stout, dark
trousers, sometimes protected by over
alls, woolen shirt, heavy saok coat,
scmbrero, boots, stout gloves and spurs.
His arms are single action as oaliber
COLTS six shooter and winchester car
bine--not rifle. He furnishes his own
horse and bedding. If the horse is
killed in action. the state replaces it. II
it dies or is stolen, the ranger must get
another. The pay is $50 month for
privates, $40 for sergeants, $40 for lieu
tenants and 800 for captains. The state
feeds them. Their supplies include -four,
coffee, sugar, lard, bacon, beef, mutton
and canned goods. They slay much
game and add variety to the bill of fare
in that way.
Owing to the settlement Of the from
tier and the gradual establishment of
law and order the ranger force has stead
lily decreased for some years past. For
merly it consisted of six companies,
numbering approximately 100 men each.
Today there are not more than 90 men
in the service, all told. nor are they of
SO high class as those who risked their
lives back in the eighties. In those days
the composition of the companies was
unique. No native Texans were in the
ranks. They were not enlisted because
it was feared that their home affilia-
tions would interfere with their work.
The men came from all sections Of the
union, lured by the spirit of adventure.
Many of them were collegians. In

CAPITAL AND LABOR.

Mr.. Tilly Haynes, famous for keeping
good hotels in Springfield, Mass, Boston
and New York, celebrated his five-year
ownership of the Broadway Central Hotel
yesterday, by announcing q new business
arrangement between his principal en-
ployees and himself. In addition to their
regular salaries the heads Of departments
will, beginning with July 1st, divide
among them one-third of the profits OF
the house. There is no partnership OF
contract between the parties, nor does any
beneficiary of this new plan contribute
any capital or assume any added response
bility.
Ten persons, including the head waiter
the housekeeper and most Of those in the
hotel Office, enter into this division oi
profits. Reckoning on the business OF tn,
hotel In the past, it appears that each oi
these persons will receive something mor'
than $500 yearly, and in a very good yea
as high, perhaps, as $1,000. The payment
will be made twice year, and any one o
the 10 employees resigning or being dis
charged will receive a pro rata share 70

TOURABOUT TOWN

Once in while Pawtucket shopkeepers
conceive shock from the actions of their
customers. A few days ago in local drug
store two "bloomer" girls came in for a
glass OF soda. 1t was served up to them
all right, but imagine the surprise when
the clerk saw one of the females place her
foot on the chair, pull down her stocking
and abstract bill from it. He gave! her
the change and without a blush she re-
turned it to its resting place.
