WAYS OF MAKING A LIVING.
Speculation In Pawn-Tiekets aud
PeddIinE CindeFs from the
Elevated Road.

Many men make their living by
buying up the cass-oif wrapping pa
per and pasteboard boxes from the
janitors Of large stores. and sorting
and selling the paper and boxes 10
East side dealers. Many others buy
the newspapers that accumulate IN
office buildings and sell them for
wrapping paper, and even the waste
paper finds purchasers, who turn II
into money at the paper mills, though
the price paid is low.
A husiness peculiar 10 the East side
Is that 90 buying and selling pawn
tickets. The men IN this line seldom
redeem the pledges, and realize on
their sale. They buy the tickets al
i've to ten per cent, Of the amount
named ON lhe ticket, and sell them az
from 10 70 25 per cent. Of the amount

The fact that the government Is
taking a hand in providing adequate
irrigation systems for the Indian
tribes IS a step in the right direction,
demonstrating what can be accom-
plished In the arid region by the stor-
age Of water. Private enterprise has
already shown this. but the govern
ment Is generally slow TO see and to
act upon proof furnished ny private
parties, and it Is well that Il Is max
ing a few experiments I'm the same

AN OBLIGING SQUIRE.

Squire B. s. Williams is sustaining his record in officiating at unusual marriages, or rather marriages under unusual circumstances. Not very long since he ot1iciatcd at a wedding cere- performed hastily during the progress of a rainstorln, the couple standing on the street corner at the junction of Union and Prince streets. Yesterday. he performed a ceremony with the contracting parties seated in buggy, on the corner of Main and Henley streets, uniting for life A. J. ,Flanni- gan, aged p, and Lydia Courtney. aged 21. The wedding was performed at twenty minutes past ten o'clock yesterday morning, almost under the caves of the East Tennessee Female Institute building. The squire met the parties by appointment, speaking to them as they drove up in a very ordinary way as though they were ac- quaintances. So far as it known, no one observed the ceremony, not even a witness. They joined hands while seated in the buggy. and the magis- trate spoke the words that made them man and wife.-Knoxville Tribune.

A TENNYsON ANECDoTE.

The late Lord Tennyson once point ed out an error of pronunciation that is very common in America. Angus tus Hare. according to the anecdote. was one day introduced to Tennyson and took a walk in the garden with him. "How sweet" said MT Hare. poetically. "how sweet is the smell of the arbrtus" t'Yes. but why accent the second syllable" asked Tennyson. You put yourself by doing that on the same plane of ignorance with the gardener who says 'clematis.' with the accent on the second syllable. when in both cases it should be on the first" " Arbutus is accented on the second syl. lable in this country. but the word comes direct from the Latin. and in the Latin 1t is accented on the first sylla- ble. It seems. therefore. that the Eng fish poet had good authority for the claim.-Denver Times.

NAMES OF FLOWERS.

The peculiarities of flowers in color, form, or smell have given birth to poetical fancies about them which are more remarkable for monotony of 1n- vention than for beauty of feeling. As rule, flowers spring from tears if they are white, from bushes or from blood if they are red. Lilies-of-the- valley are in France the Virgins tears; anemones in Bion's idyl are the teams of Venus for Adonis: and the helenium, which, according to Pliny, the tears of Helen, was probably white flower. If we may believe Catullus, the rose is red from blushing for the wound it inflicted on the foot of Venus as she hastened to help Adonis. But if Stephen Herrick Is right, who of all our old poets deals more fancifully with flowers, roses were originally white, till, after being worsted in dispute as to whether their whiteness eXcelled that of Sappho's breast, they blushed and Ovid's account of the mulberry fruit having been originally white, till It blushed forever after witnessing the tragedy enacted beneath it of the sad suicides of PyramuS and Thisbe. In German folklore the heath owes Its color to the blood of the slain heathen. apparently in recollection of Charle- manages method of converting the Saxons. the two words being connect cd in the same way as are pagus and paganus; for, as in Latin the inhabi- tants of the country villages far from the Christian culture of the towns came to be called pagans, so in Ger man the inhabitants of the uncultivAt- ed fields where the heath tor heide) grew, came to be known as heathen Cor eide.)-Leslie,s Weekly.

General Miles can thank his person. al friends Tn the senate for the dis covery in time to defeat it of a scheme to depose him from the command of the army, under the army reorganiza- ton bill. That bill as drawn by Ad- jutant-General Corbin, whose hatred for General Miles is widely known, specially provided that the present ad- Jutant-general should be retained and with the same rank, but in providing for the appointment of a lieutenant general who should have command of the army, the appointment was left wide open. The scheme first became known by friends of General Otis and of General Brooke seeking senatorial support for the nomination of one or the other to be lieutenant-genera1 Fortunately the nomination has to be confirmed by the senate, which would never have consented to such q low down trick being played upon Gen. eral Miles, even had it not been made impossible by an amendment added to the bill in conference.

"It is said" says Henry Clews in
 his weekly let-er, that the trust prin- ciple is entering the railroad system
 ists as a means of restraining the con-
 petition which for twenty years has been playing havoc with earnings. It is estimated that this end will be &C., complished less through direct consoli- dations of separate roads or through classes or capitalistic commitments than by large cooperative alliances of stockholders ill groups of companies which, through becoming mutually in- terested in each of the several lines
 will be enabled to administer the en- tire group upon g common policy as to rates and distribution of traffic; the organization of the several roads being kept intact, while their relations would Z be cooperative. So many fictitious stories about huge schemes of finan- cial reconstruction of one kind or an- other are afloat that it is difficult to say what is true and what is invented for mere speculative effect. Certain plans more or less of this nature are now in progress of execution, and that may have suggested to sanguine opera tors probability that scheme so full of speculative possibilities may run to great lengths and lay the basis for q wide expansion of the campaign now in process. That there are believers in these rose-colored prospects is plain from the extraordinary persist ence of the 'bull' feeling and the con- s tiuued heavy buying of sRecialties for reasons not very. obvious. It seems, however, very improbable that experL
 enced fnanciers should undertake large operations of such character when Wall street Is at the climax of an unprecedented speculation in all kinds of securities. True, these are entirely extraordinary times in Amer ican finance, and there Is no saying what mAy. not happen in the way of speculative ventures; but there Is such a thing as reality in finance and those who ignore 1t must be prepared for the risks. For my own part, coun- sel a moderate and conservative atti- |. .tude in the situation as 1t now stands"

It is customary for senators who in- dulge in bad language toward each other to apologize to the senate, if not to the blackguarded senator, but Sen ator Hawley has made no apology for having called Senator Chandler a liar at the secret session of the senate that confirmed the nomination of Justice Harlan's son to be attorney general of Porto Rico, several days ago. The in- cident was brought about by the read ing from pamphlet written by Chan dler, twenty odd years ago, by Sen ator Pettigrew, of a statement that Justice Harlan was given his place on the bench for work done as a member isiana by Hayes, and that Hawley, who was a member of the same con- mission, was to have received the ap- pointment of United States commis- sioner to the Paris exposition of 1878 as a reward for his work, but de clined it because it didn't carry enough salary. Chandler's only reply was that Hawley's age and irresponsi ibility prevented his feeling any resentment and that he stood by his original statement. Chandler's strong point is not resentment of personal insults Joe Blackburn once tweaked his nose in a committee room, in the presence of seven or eight senators, and he didn't even make an effort to resent the insult
