A Hasty Judgment

"I hate intoxicated people, " whisper ed good looking young lady to a oom- panion on one of the Larimer avenue cars the other evening. A man had boarded the car at Atwood street. He staggered along the aisle and finally managed to get hold of a strap, to which be olung in order to steady himself.
 "You re right, answered the one ad. dressed; "the conductors ought to keep them of the cars s''
 Meanwhile the man was changing his hold on the strap from one hand to the other. He looked down, with his eyes half closed, and when some of the pas sengers wanted to leave the car he seem- ed to pay no attention to them, for he did not move out of their way. At the Larimer avenue bridge the car came to a stop. The man seemed to realize that he was at his destination, for while he had not motioned to the conductor he began to go toward the door. The con- duotor helped him out and after seeing him safely on the sidewalk returned to his car. Turning to a passenger who had been an interested spectator, he said: Isn't 1t pity to be blind? That gentleman lives in the house on the cor her, and I take him home every even- ing"
 The two young ladies looked at each other in embarrassment. for the con ductor had spoken loud enough for ev- erybody in the car to hear him. burg Chronicle-Telegraph.

A Deadly Gaa-

Millen and the owners of grain ele. vators look upon the bisulphide of car bon as one of their most useful agents. When mill, an elevator or granary becomes infested with weevil, bisul- phide of carbon is the cheapest and most effective thing to exterminate the pest. So deadly is the gas, however, and so rapidly does it act that the ut most care must be taken in applying the bisulphide. It is usually sprinkled over tho grain from watering pots. The liquid is rapidly converted into gas. and the latter sinks through the grain, carrying death to the weevil and even to the unmatched eggs.
 So long as the persons applying the liquid stand above the point of applica- tion they are pretty safe from the fumes, but occasionally the workmen breathe little of the gas and have to be removed at once to the open air, as the heart is quickly paralyzed by the action of the bisulphide. It is usual to treat the lower floors of granary first, so that those employed in tSe work may keep constantly above the gas. Any animal, as cat or dog, shut up in an apartment where the bisulphide is do- ing its work is found dead when the place is opened. Inter- Ocean.

When the furniture of Charles James Fox, the famous English orator and statesman, was sold by auction, there was among the books copy of the first volume of Gibbons Roman history.
 It appeared by the title page that the book had been presented by the author to Fox, but no considerations of senti- ment deterred the recipient from writ ing on the fly leaf this anecdote:
 1.-The author at Brookes' said there was no salvation for this country until six heads of the principal persons in ad- ministration were laid on the table. Eleven days after this same gentleman accepted place of lord of trade, under those very ministers, and has acted with them ever since.
 Such was the avidity of bidders anx- ious to secure the least scrap of the writ ing and composition of the famous own CT of the copy that owing to the addi- tion of this little record the book sold for 3 guineas, a large sum for the times Youths Companion.

She Married Him.

"The most amusing nuptial event l ever officiated at" said good old Squire Hiram Cate to a representative of the Louisville Post, "the marrying magis- trate of the Pennyrile," now dead, twas in the winter of 1871. I was awakened one cold night about midnight by vigorous knocking on my front door. went to the window and by the light of the moon could see two forms on my front porch. l raised the window and asked what was wanted. A woman of the backwoods type answered in about this language: Why, hits us Jim an me wants to git hitched.' I hurried down and on opening the door found poorly clad, finnicky looking man of about 10, led by deterimned looking woman of perhaps 80. I cold see that the female was the business part of the procession and addressed myself to her, asking why they had chosen such a late hour for their 'hitching affair." This was the reply, in quick, snappy sen- tences: Why, hits this way. Jim Owens is bin a-sparkin uv of me, I low. for fo' yeres, an got fetched tired uv his mincin wurds, so tux an ast him tonite. I him, I did, I 'pected him 'votedly, an of he wanted me to cum on an les git j'ined tonite, CT I wus gwine to take Fletch Boggess' boy, Hez, an settle down. Jim 'lowed--he did he reclaimed he'd cum, though it wuz a long trip. So took an fetched him in pap's mill waggin. Didn't I, Jimr Jim nodded doleful assent. In answer ing the questions put to the groom in the ceremony the brawny better nine- tenths gave the bashful spouse about the cue, and she paid me half dollar. taking the money from Jim's pocket book. It beat any wedding ever wit messed, I think"

A Cuban MfIkman.

"How many COWS there are about the streets" somebody exclaims, and then he is calmly informed that the morn ing's milk is simply being delivered. 4 bunch of cattle and their driver stop before house, and the portero comes out with cup for the mornings sup ply. It is seen then that the COWS are being milked from door to door by the dairymen, for this IS the way the acute Cuban housewives have taken to assure for their tables lacteal supply which is entirely fresh and absolutely pure.
 Even with the COWS milked before the door one must continue to watch the milkman, for I have even heard of their having a rubber bag of water con- cealed under their loose frooks and con- nected with a rubber tube running down inside of the sleeve, its tip being concealed in the hollow of the milking hand. Only gentle pressure upon the bag of water within is needed to thus cause both milk and water to flow into the cup at the same time. The milk vendors of Italy and India have also learned their trade to perfection, for they practice this identical trick.-Ed- ward Page Gaston in Woman's Home Companion.

Joe Barbour's Brother Dead

The Hartford Courant says: At the coroner's ina aest. held Monday over the remains of William H Barbour, janitor and custodian of the custom house and post office at Atlanta. Ga, who com mitted suicide Saturday night at his residence in the presence of his wife, Mrs Barbour created sensation by swearing her husband was driven to suicide by the torment of Internal Rev. enue Collector H. A Fucker, a negro, who was in authority over her husband in the custom house.
 My husband came home frequently said Mrs Barbour, s.almost crazy, be- cause Fucker was using every means to force him to resign, so that Fucker could fill the place by appointing ne- gro. My husband came home Satur day night. weeping like little child, declaring that he had been insulted by Rncker in the presence of negroes. He then picked up his pistol and said: It's h-ll at the post office. and then he shot himself through the heart"
 Fucker Is one of the most prominent negro politicians in the South and has frequently held office under the repub- lican administration. He denies that he tried to force Barbour's resignation. Barbour's brother is the Hon. Joseph L. Barbour of Hartford, Conn. He leaves wife and three children.

The Innocence of Childhood.

As the tour de force of an entertain. ment once given at an English country house it was arranged that the children should present an original play, to be entirely written and acted by them selves. The play turned out to be sur prisingly we'll written and would have won much praise but for the ending. This was the story of the play:
 A gallant knight joined the brave King Richard in one of bis crusades in Palestine. Nothing having been heard from him for more than seven years, the conviction was forced on his faithful wife that he was dead. The villain came to her and wanted her to marry him, but at the critical moment the knight reappeared and clasped in his arms his lady, who had never ceased to love him. Then explanations came, and he told of his many noble achievements. "m short, dear wife" said he, 1T have never been idle an instant"
 And l, too, my lord, have not been idle," she said with pride. "Seer" And here she led out before the electrified audience four lovely children to be pre- sented for the first time to their father. San Francisco Argonaut.

FROM THE OTHER PAPERS.

The Bookman hears of Scotch pro- lessor, who had been advocating the advantages of athletic exercise. "The Ropau youth" he cried. ''used to swim three times across the Iiber before breakfast. The Scotch professor ex- claimed, "Mr McAt!ister. why do you smile? We shall be glsd to share your amusement" The canny Scot replied l: II was just thinking, sir. that the Ro- man youths must have left their clothes on the wrong bank at the end of their swim.
 The Waterbury Republican thinks that the almanac maker who says that winter won't arrive until December 2l, is ''moss-grown chump."
 The treaty of peace must go to the Senate for ratification. It Is impossible to predict tue result, but the chances favor tue treaty. There are Republi- cans who. like Senator Hoar. oppose ex- pansion, and there are Democrats who. like Senator Morgan. favor it. Perhaps the latter may ca nal the former in num- Der, in which event ratification will turn upon the position of the virtually inde- pendent Senators who may demand compensation" instance, more silver coinagr.

 The Bridgeport Farmer, in answering a correspondent, says:
 There have been no important events in Church history this year;the Church in the various countries has gone on the even tenor of its way, sometimes having an unusual ceremony. (such as the con- vention in the Episcopal church in this country) but undergoing no especial strain or stress from any unusual cir cumstance. In State history, these events are notable; the revival of the Dfeylus Aglbation HI rrance, WHICH mAy yet end in the overthrow of the present Republic; the great Italian bread riots in April and May, during which more persons were killed than were kill ed in our war; our war with Spain, with details or the defeat of the Spsniards at Manila. the annexation of Hawaii, and the defeat of Spain at Santiago; the Canadian Conference lat Quebec, just re- newed in Washington; the British re- conquest of the Soudan, the murder of the Empress of Austris;the Czar's peace proclaim ation ard the visit of the En- peror of Germany to the East. We have laughed at the theatrical surround ings of this visit. but it ha been of great importance to Germany, and will be of importance to the world.

Human Magnets

Experiments made recently by scien- tific men in France, says the London Standard, have developed somewhat curious and unexpected fact-namely. that certain persons possess magnetic polarity-that is they are found to aci after the manner of magnets, having, in fact, north and south poles. In such case the individual, on being com. pletely undressed and placed near sen sitive galvanometcr, will. when turned on vertical axis, cause defiection, first in one direction and then in the op- posite, just as magnet will do. It is not assumed that all persons possess this polarity, but in the case of Professor Murani, an Italian, Hpon whom the ex
 pertinent was tried, the phenomenon was unmistakably exhibited, it being found that his breast corresponded to q north pole and his back to south pole.
