A dangerous Practice.

Various boys are in the habit of
jumping on and off the street cars
while running at quite rapid gait.
One of these days some one will be
hurt and then great outcry will be
made. Parents should make their

out of danger. Those who get hurt
by this practice will have no one to

disappeared. Like a chip of wood in a

What Dan Dawson Did.

The Literary Era has received the
memory Of Dan" Dawson Of New York.
This is what Dawson did one day:
TN the morning he went to New York
to give instructions for carrying out a
contact for building a creosote factory
in Harlem; in the afternoon the Authors
club gave him a reception. at which he
read his latest poem as topic for dis
cussion: ten went to Sheepshead Bay
to see his famous steeplechaser. Ruch-
brook. in the race. In the evening he
lectured before a select literary audience
on Morse Mythology after which, be-
fore the New York Athletic club. he
whipped their champion amateur middle
weight pugilist!"
But. after reading Dawson's poetry, We
are constrained to speak of him as re-
markable athlete.-Boston Journal.
