Sheridan In Battle.

General Horace Porter, in his Cam.
paigning With Grant" in The Century,
says OF Sheridan at Appomattox No
one could look at Sheridan at such q
moment without sentiment of undis
guised admiration In this campaign,
as in others, he had shown himself pos
sessed of military traits of the highest
order Bold in conception, self reliant,
demonstrating by his acts that ''much
danger makes great hearts most reso-
lutte, fertile in resources combining
the restlessness of a Hotspur with the
patience of Fabius, it is no wonder
that he should have been looked upon
as the wizard of the battlefield Gener-
GUS of his life, gifted with the ingenu-
ity Of a Hannibal, the dash of a Murat,
the courage of Ney, the magnetism of
his presence reused his troops to deeds
of individual heroism, and his uncon-
querable columns rushed to victory with
all the confidence of Caesars Tenth le-
gion Wherever blows fell thickest
there was his crest. Despite the valor
of the defense opposing ranks went
down before the fierceness of his onsets,
never TO rise again, and he would not
pause till the folds of his banner waved
above the strongholds he had wrested
from the foe Brave Sheridan can
almost see him now, his silent clay
again quickened into life, once more
riding Rienzi through fire of hell,
leaping opposing earthworks at single
bound, and leaving nothing OF those
who barred his way except the frag-
ments scattered in his path. AS long as
manly courage is talked of or heroic
deeds are honored the hearts Of CRATE
full people will beat responsive to the
mention Of the talismanic name of Sher-
idan.

Worked the Officers.

A sailmaker's mate in the navy who
wanted to get out Of the service to go
into business with some money he had
fallen heir to made success of the
monomania dodge. 1t is the business Of
a man-of-war sailmaker's mate to sew
up members of the crew who die at sea
in hammocks preparatory to their be-
ing cast over the side This sailmaker's
mate appeared on deck one day with q
queer look in his eye and announced to
his shipmates forward that he was dead
and that he was going to prepare him
self for burial i'll the deep. Some Of the
men watched him as he went to the
sailmaker's storeroom and began to sew
himself up in a new hammock. When
he had got the job about half finisl d,
the men informed the officer of the dc k
of the case, and the sailmaker's ma
was put under observation III Goable
irons When he was released from the
brig, still under observation, but appar-
emily not aware of the espionage, he
went direct to the storeroom, got an
other hammock and began to enshroud
himself again. The skipper of the ship
reduced him TO the rate of seaman for
this, for the purpose of keeping the man
away from the sailmal1ers storeroom,
thinking that if he was removed from
the sight of the stored up hammocks
his mania might leave him. The night
OF the day he lost his rate the ex-sail-
makers mate broke into the storeroom
where the new hammocks were kept and
sewed himself up for burial again. Then
the fleet surgeons held survey ON him,
and he got his discharge. He started
tobacco store for sailors near one of the
navy yards, and for some time he made
1T practice to stand in the doorway of
his shop and grin when any of the board
OF surgeons who had pronounced him
insane passed by. as they were compell-
ed to do on their way to and from the
navy yard.-New York Sun

Toy;nalsing.

A great many toys are now made i'll
this country, including many mechan-
ical devices. Many toys are still i'm
ported. Such things as woolly sheep and
dogs, now as highly priced by children
as ever, come from Germany, as do the
skin covered horses. They could be
made here, but they can be produced
cheaper abroad.
AS a rule, whatever can be made by
machinery is made here, while toys
made by hand are mostly imported
The minute thing is brought within
the reach of machinery American man
ufacturers can pay their higher prices
for labor and still beat the world
With the low prices of labor in foreign
countries handmade productions can be
made cheaper in them AS a result of
this there are toys of some kinds which
in their completed state are partly
American and partly foreign Among
these are toy vehicles with horses at
tached. The vehicles and everything in
and about them may be the product of
American machinery while the horse
standing between the shafts may be
from Germany. New York Sun.

The Huckster Was Called Up Four Flights
TO Hear Something.
A huckster was going along an east
side street early one morning making
the welkin ring with his singsong of
"Po-ta-t-o-o-o-es, toma-t-o-o-es! Nice
sweet cooking appools" AS he drove
slowly along he lifted his eyes to the
windows OH either side of the street
Suddenly there appeared woman s
head at window in one of the top flats
The huckster pulled in his horse and
raised his ear to listen to the commands
he expected would be coming, but the
woman had not the lung power to make
her voice carry so far, and the huckster
called out, "How's that?'
Again the woman called, and her
voice came down family The huckster
didn't know whether she wanted pota.
toes, cantaloupes, tomatoes or corn So
he marked the fourth fat from the cor
ner and motioned that he would drive
around to the alley. The woman was
there waiting for him and called out
once more, but he couldn't understand
her
Gathering a handful of samples of
various vegetables from his stock, he
mounted four flights of back stairs and
arrived at the top painting The woman
stood there awaiting his coming
"Couldn' t hear what you said, lady"
said the huckster $50 | brought up
some of each kind an you can pick what
you want an I'll go down an get 'em "

in towering rage. want? l don't

The huckster stood with set eyes and
dropping jaw, the perspiration dropping
off his chin, while this, harangue was
going on. When she had finished, he
came out of his trance and said:
is that what you called me all the
way up here for? Send fer yer p'lice,
lady! I'm goin to yell to beat the

and out of the alley and up the street
in front of the house with four extra
links let out of his throat, and if any
person slept on that street it was under
the influence of opiates. Kansas City

A Bee Was Kent.

A girl from town is staying with
some country cousins who live at a
farm. On the night of her arrival she
finds. to her modification, that she is
ignorant of all sorts of things connected
with farm life which to her country
cousins are matters of everyday knowl-
tdge. She fancies they seem amused at
her ignorance
AT breakfast the following morning
she sees ON the table dish of fine hon
ey, whereupon she thinks she has found
an opportunity of retrieving her humil-
iating experience of the night before
and of showing her country cousins that
she knows something of country life
after all So, looking at the dish of
honey, she says carelessly:

In Customs.

A Commonly Used as Ever-Some Changes
| In Customs.
The sleighbells used in this country
necticut, and many sleighbells Of
American manufacture are exported to
Germany and TO Russia. Sleighbells
are as commonly used as ever whenever
there is snow enough to make good
sleighing. They may not be heard so
much as formerly here in the city,
where the snow is cleared away from
many streets and wheels cut up what is
left. but up the state and elsewhere the
sleighbells jingle in winter just as mer-
rily as ever
There have been some changes in
sleighbell customs Shaft bells and
bells fixed on the saddle of the harness
have to some extent taken the place of
the old time string of bells ON straps,
but the strings of bells are still the
more commonly used. Probably third
of the bell outfits sold nowadays are of
the kind that fasten to shafts or the
saddle of the harness and two-thirds
are strings of bells. The bells exported
are in about the same proportions. The
bells attached to shafts and harness are
open mouthed and provided with
tongues. Some shaft bells are made
with all three in set alike; oftener
they are made in three Sizes forming a
chime The three bells carried over the
saddle of the harness are set in an orna-
mental frame. which is supported by
the saddle.
The sleighbells of the old, familiar
kind, round, with balls inside, are at
tached to straps. as they have always
been, to body straps encircling tho
horses body, and to neck straps
Sleighbells are made of bell metal,
and they were never made with such
care with view to their sound produc-
ing qualities, nor were they ever so mu-
steal, as now The commoner kinds of
sleighbells are produced at very small
cost, and whole strings of bells are sold
at prices that seem marvelously low
Shaft bells Of the commoner kinds are
cheaper yet. and that accounts in some
measure for the increased sales of shaft
bells
The question has often been asked,
and as often answered, How does the
ball get irsiGv Of the sleighbell? The
question l. Ire again answered. OF
course the Tall Itself is first cast 1t is
then Placed inside the ball of sand that
is TO form the e. re of the mold in which
the sleig hbeil l. to be cast The mold
is of the form aud size of the outside of
the sleieAbell The core almost fills
the interior Of the mold, but not quite
There is left all around, between it and
the mold, a little space Into this space
the molten metal is poured, and when
it hardens it is "A hollow globe of metal,
with the mold outside and the core in
side. When the sleighbell is taken
from the mold, the sand of which the
core is composed, having been dried out
by the heat of the molten metal, can
easily be shaken out of the bell through
it's narrow mouth, but the ball which
has been placed in the sand before the
bell was cast is bigger than the mouth
Of the bell that now surrounds it, and
SO it has to stay i'll. New York Sun

HER ACCOUNT DoCTORED.
This Girl Kept an Expense Book and Lost
Husband.


There is North Side girl who has a
laudable ambition TO know just where
her money goes. She has tried two OF
three times to keep mental track of her
expenditures, but this always proved
unsatisfactory. At last she decided that
she must keep an exact and minute ac-
count of everything she spent. She got
herself small book with rulings and
margins and a pliable cover and set to
work in earnest. She put down reli-
giously everything she spent, the exact
amount, the article and the date She
never allowed the slightest matter 10 go
till there was chance OF her forget
ting it. When she made any purchases
down town, she went over the list care
fully in the car on her way home and
put the amounts on the outside of a
package In this way she succeeded in
keeping very satisfactory record of
her expenditures.
There was only one drawback She
was forever leaving the book around
OF course there are great many people
who are only too glad to read such
things. The servant would see it. The
man who came TO tune the piano might
easily have done it if he liked, and she
did not know whether he had or not. A
neighbor had once picked it up on the
lawn in front of the house and brought
it in, but what was worse than all the
rest was the fact that couple of girl
friends perused it one day. There were
Soma THINGS which She had talked a
good deal about that she got for down
right bargains. In fact, after this catas-
trophe everything on her record seemed
to be shamefully cheap However, she
was unwilling to give up the bookkeep-
ing, and if she didn't carry notebook
around with her she would certainly
forget something, so she bethought her.
self of another expedient. She determin-
ed for the purpose of mystification to
multiply everything she put down by
ten-that is, to add cipher to each en-
try. In this way she could always tell
that every item really cost tenth of
what appeared ON the book After this
she didn't care who saw it.
There is lot at the side of her ia
theirs house and rustic seat One day
she left the book on this seat. In the
evening the young man who had about
concluded to ask her hand in marriage
came along. He noticed the book, picked
it up and looked through it carelessly.
He was amazed. She had always claim
ed to be such prudent girl, and he had
believed she was. Still there he saw:
