Around the World backward.


The newspapers Of the north have
announced the fact that an enthusiastic
sportsman has just left Brussels With
the avowed intention of walking
around the world backward. We shall
certainly await his arrival in New York
with great interest. The feat, of going
around the world without a sou in
ones pocket has become an everyday
mattcr-bicycle tours of the world are
an old story-tlerefore, there must be
some new invention, by which the pub
lie craving for notoric:y may be graft
fed. The man who walks backward is
bound to be safe from accidents, a. tha
automobile and other vehicles of loco
motion, il not out of common human
ity, at least out of admiration for a
creature Of such absolute daring, must
give him right of way. We may next
ihear of some faIatic who has started
out to make the tour Of the world
walking on his hands. Truly, the pos
sibilities of globe trotting are in
numerable.-N. Y. Herald.

EXCURSIONS.
a very Mean Wan.
From The Detroit Free Press

ttrom the Detroit Free Press.)
There is some difficulty in picking out
the meanest man, but it would be safe
enough to play this one for place in the
race.
Four little fellows who seldom know the
pleasures Of country life went well back
on Pingree Avenue the other day to gather
hickory nuts. The nuts were there. the
trees were not beyond their climbing abili-
ties, and they were soon as happy a quartet
as could be found in Wayne county.
While the largest was aIoft, whipping the
limbs a man came across the lot. smiling
in a way that assured the invaders.
That's right boys, have a good time"
as he sat down on the stump TO direct the
campaign Beat out there, pointing to a
fine lot of nuts the lad IN the tree had
| overlooked Give il to EN-. Why. you're
a proper hand at the business. Don't leave
one. Gosh what shower Here. you
other boys. rake them into a pile. Ne,
don't put them into the bag. Heap them
together till you see how many you have.
Great haul. isn't it? Nothing like hickory
nuts and cider before a big fire on cold
winters night.
'Now, get out OF here. you thieving little
Tascals, or III have you all arrested. Nlce
thing to sneak up here when you think I'm
away, and try To steal my hickory nutsl
Git now.'
The boys were going and he returned to
his suave manner as he called after them.
Very kind OF you to come up and gather
the nuts for me. Ask your parents 10 let
you come again next fall"
And the meanest part Of 1t all is that the
man who got the pluuder without turning
a hand doesn't own a foot of land on earth.
The times., 1899-10-20

Nearly hundred shares Of Mergenthaler
changed hands, and the price advanced TO
2O8. The report of the company for the
fiscal year shows the business to be in a
most fourishing condition. Something like
81, 500 goo of surplus remained after the
payment of 81, 600, 600 IN dividends, and the
orders for machines are still far ahead Of
construction. 1t is noted also that the
business Of furnishing parts of machines
and supplies is growing constantly. The
statement of the officers of the company
is that the dividends at the present rate,
10 per cent regular and 10 per cent extra
yearly, Will be continued, according to pres
ent indications. The stock pays nearly 10 per
cent on the investment at this rate.
