His Leg Pulled.

A Pawnee county jay offers the fol-
lowing tale of woe: 'lf there's water
in the river, let me go and soak my
head, l am full of prunes and sorrcw,
and I.wish that l was dead. l had
wildly, madly fancied, that no man my
leg could pull, but an agent came and
worked me and my eyes are full of
wool. l had dared the green goods
dealer, on his far off eastern lair; l
have met the gold brick expert. given
him the Klondike stare; have met the
bunco steerer with the old time sicken-
ng thud, but an agent came and work
ed me ana my name is Mr.. Mud. l
have lodged the oily bioomers, with
Colonel Sellers dream, I have scorned
the touring fakir, with his smooth
transparent scheme; l have met the
begging pastor and dismissed him with
a smile, but an agent came and worked
me, came and touched me for my pile.

RAILROAD TROUBLES IN CUBA.
Things Which Shake Up Ones Anatomy
and Ones Feelings.

When one wishes to leave Havana by
rail to see something Of the real Cuba
say, to take trip to Pinar del Rio
or to Cienfuegos-he must get up very
early, says Harper's Weekly. The
through trains leave at 6 o'clock in the
morning. ! asked the chief engineer OF
the railroad to Pinar del Rio why so
early a start was made for town only
10 miles away, and he said it was so
as to get back the same day. The
American traveller is not only likely
to grumble when he is compelled to
hurry to the station in the thick gloom
OF the early morning. but when he
reaches the station and finds that he
must pay about 5 cents a mile in gold,
and from to cents mile in Span
ish silver, to ride in the back-breaking
cars known as first-class carriages, and
that for an ordinary trunk he must
pay about half fare, he Is inclined to
scott at the primitive mode OF travel,
and long for the luxury Of the stage
coach journeying on a western noun
tain road. The amazing amount Of
computation by the ticke' agent be.
fore he sells a ticket, the smoky lamps,
the three preliminary tootings by the
engine before the train starts, the final
ringing OF a bell by the baggagemaster
as a signal that the train Is really 60
ing, the crowded condition Of the aisles,
choked with luggage for which the pas
sengers do not care to pay toll, and
every man in the train, from the con-
ductor down to the barefooted brake
man, smoking tobacco Of varying de-
grees OF excellence-all this is likely
to weary the American traveller used
to the luxury of Pullman cars. A few
hard jolts soon after the train leaves
the station bring up to the magma
ton the prospect Of miserable trip,
and one is inclined at the very outset
to rail at the crudities of travel by
cars in the island of Cuba.

ULTIMATE FATE OF CHICAGO.
She May Become a Victim of Lake
Michigan's Waters.

The old story of the subsistence of
the shores of the southwestern portion
of the chain of great lakes has been re-
vived and this time with a show of
real evidence, says the American Ar
chitect. According to Prof. Gilbert, in
the report of the geological survey, &C
tual measurements show that within
the last forty years the average level
OF the water has fallen on Lake On
tario, as compared with the shore, two
or three inches, while it has risen
about as much at Chicago and Milwau
kee. According to Prof. Gilbert, the
greatest subsistence is along line run
ming from northeast to southwest, or
about twenty-seven degrees west of
south, and passing nearly through Chi
cago. AS Chicago is built on low land,
anything like serious subsistence Is an
important matter; and, although it will
probably be 200 or 800 years before any
part of the city is submerged, the in
habitants of the Chicago of six gen.
Ci dLlOuo HcnCe are uOL iihtly W Ue
any more fond Of cold water than the
present ones, and there are indications
that subsistence has gone on Irregular
ly, so that a sudden movement might
have disastrous consequences. An
other peculiar result OF the change of
level will be, in the course of years,
to throw the water of the lakes toward
the Mississippi Already the streams
which flow into the western part of
Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, although
tolerably swift in their upper courses,
are nearly stagnant at their mouths,
owing to the backing up Of the lake
water into them, and in the low coun-
try about Chicago, the continuance OF
the movement will in course, OF time
send the water of Lake Michigan
through the Chicago river into the Mis-
sissippi. Prof. Gilbert thinks that al
the present rate 500 or 600 years will
elapse before the lake water, in time
of freshet, will find its way in that
direction. In 1900 years the flow will
be constant, and in 1000 years the Chi
cago river and the Niaraga will carry
equal volumes of water. In $500 all the
water of the lakes will flow into the
Mississippi and the Niagara river will
be dry.

AN AUTHOR
Who Wrote Books of Travel, Yet Had
Never Travelled.

who Wrote Books of Travel, Yet Had
Never Travelled.
New Orleans Times Democrat: II
used to know a man." said New Or
leans bohemian, who made a living
writing stories of travel for boys. He
had never been out of Missouri In his
life, but he was famous for the graphic
fidelity Of his description of foreign
lands. His reference library consisted
of exactly three works: An encyclope-
dia, a set Of United States consular re-
ports, covering four or Ave years, and
a copy of Woods Natural History"
II the scene of the story was to be laid,
for instance, in Borneo, he would be-
gin by reading the Borneo article in
the encyclopedia; then he would turn
to the consular reports and look up all
the odd and interesting matter he could
and finally he would get description
of its animals from Woods. He wrote
at an old table on which was glued a
map of the world, covered with a sheet
Of glass. This was constantly before
his eyes, so he couldn't go astray on
geography, and, as / said before, his
descriptions were marvels OF accuracy.
He could draw a better and more re-
alistic pen picture of foreign countries
than travellers themselves. People
thought that he had been a great globe
trotter, and, crazy as it sounds, be-
lieve he actually got to thinking so
himself The last time 1 saw him he
talked about Afghanistan in the easy
off-hand vein of personal observer.
If l hadn't happened to know that he
had been living in st. Louis all his life
/ would have sworn he had been
there"
