There are men In New York today
whose fortunes are not small, yet they
never pay n bootblack a cent a year for
shining their shoes. They are their
" bootblacks, and not one is asham-
ed Of 1t. You may depend on one thing
these men were reared in the coun-
try, where they were educated In the
use Of the brush. l said to an acQuaint-
nee some time ago, when he COM
planned that his 1~2-year-old son had no
exercise about the house, "Why don't
you make him blacken the family
shoes every morning?"
He vas stunned at the suggestion.
"My son blacken bootsv' he walled,
throwing up his hands. "Do you think
l would disgrace my own boy? 1 give
him 10 cents every morning to have
his shoes shined at the corner where I
have mine shined."
l reminded him that he was teaching
that boy to be an upstart and that he
was giving him $3G.50 a year which he
stole from his friends. Blackening
shoes Is splendid exercise. Many a
ragged street Arab Is too proud to do
1t because Of some fool father like the
one mentioned, but such n father
ought to be in the business instead of
robbing his friends. Let every boy
learn to shine shoes. He may have to
make n living at 1t some day. There
Is money in the business.-New York

O'ConneIl and Massey.

Laughter has been fatal to at least
M bill In the house Of commons. In
the days Of O'Connell Thomas Massey,
who vas a sworn foe to everything
that suggested popery, introduced q
bill to abolish the sufix mas from all
words In our language and to substi-
tute tide" thus converting Christ
mas into "Christtide," and so on.
When he had ended his Introductory
speech. g Connell got up and said:
"Since the honorable member has such
an insuperable objection to the word
mas why does he not set a good ex-
ample by anglicizlng his own manner
In that case we should be quite willing
to speak of him as Thotide Tidey."
The house rolled with a~ppreciative
laughter, and Mr.. Massey never recov-
cred sufficient courage to speak of the
bill again.

Beach & Bowers minstrel company
showed to a packed house" in Norfolk
last evening. They had n generous
spread of canvas Mt the corner OF
Philip avenue and Third street. but none
too ample for the demand. The ar.
rangement was much like that OF a
theatre, seats being sloped down to the
stage with reserved section in front
The performance was very meritorious
and the immense crowd that attended
was we'll pleased. The musical numbers
were fine and the jokes were good,
though some were rather ancient. The
acrobatic features were good, some new
and very difficult acts being performed.
The trick dog show was q pleasing part
OF thelperformance, especially to the
children. The little animal that turned
a back somersault over o stick was n
particularly clever brute and was an
especial favorite with the audience.
The entire performance was good and
those taking part appeared co be under
no disadvantage by reason Of their can
vas auditorium.
The Hammer house, at the cornor Of
Fourth street and Pasewalk avenue,
occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. APPEL, caught
fire about 7 o'clock Monday evening
during the absence of the family. The
blaze was first noticed by the son Of
Gus Cornelius, who told his father and
1t was due entirely to MIR. Cornelius
that any part Of the property was saved,
no fire alarm having been turned in.
He at once organized a bucket brigade
of one member and went to work with
vigor, being careful to keep the doors
closed as much rs possible and the air
excluded from the fire, Before he was
successful in extinguishing the fire con
siderable damage was done, both to the
dwelling and to the belongings of Mr..
and Mrs. APPEL. The interior Of the
house was almost entirely ruined, q
large hole being burned through the
floor, and. considerable of the APPEL
furnishings were destroyed, There
was no insurance OH the furniture, but
the agent Of the property, j. w. Ran
som, says there is $500 on the house,
carried by the American company.
