Profits In Fractions Of Cents.

Profits In Fractions of Cents.
1t is most astonishing that trade
in these days is making Its enormous
profits in the fractions Of a cent. In
one of the cities of the country there
was a bank president who gave his
millions for philanthropic purposes.
During his life. even on the days when
he was almost too inirm to walk, he
would trudge sadly and brokenly to
his home. One day a man met him on
the street and said:
"Why don't you take the street carr"
He instantly replied. my dear
friend. do you appreciate the fact that
a hundred dollars would have to work
half a week to pay that fare?"
And yet he gave two millions to a
library and another million to a hos
pital. That Is the spirit of modern
money making. On the n hand it
gets the millions through the fractions
of cents. and with the other 1t spends
the millions without regard to deci.

REcLUsEs OF THE WOODS.
Life of the Lumber Camp Keepers
in Maine.

Up in the deep spruce forests of north
ern Maine there are dozens of men who
have happier existence. more ease. and
greater comfort generally than some mil
lionaires and yet their total cash incomes
do not exceed from $50 to s100 year. They
are the keepers of lumber camps. which
are entirely deserted by the loggers for
at least five months In the year.
When the work of cutting the winter s
crop of logs has been completed and the
last of the crew has gone down the river
to Bangor somebody must keep guard
over the camp, the provisions left over,
and all the valuable outfit. and must see
that the property is not burned up or
stolen by woods tramps or careless sports
men. For this purpose the proprietor
hires cne of those queer. happy go-lucky
characters always to be-found in the bor-
derland between the wilderness and civili-
zatlon.
These men have no home and no family
connections, at least none that they care
much for and they have a constitutional
aversion to real labor. They are good
fishermen. good shots, and good woods
cooks. They drink liquor when they can
get any, go without it all right when there
Is none handy, don't need many clothes,
and have no ambition to lay up wealth.
All they want is comfort, plenty to eat.
plenty of tobacco. a chance to fish and
hunt. and nothing whatever to do. This
sort of existence is offered by the job of
campkeeper, and II is always easy to get
man to take the job.
When the last logger Is gone the keeper
comes in and takes charge He falls heir
TO all the dime novels, illustrated papers,
old clothes and tobacco that may be left
b. hind. There Is always enough flour,
pork. mOlasses. and tea in the camp to
supply dozen men for year, and the
keeper has his choice of fifty hunks to
sleep in He has rifle. a fishing rod. a
big jackknife. lots of clay pipes. thor
ouGh knowledge Of the woods and com
plete and dreamy disregard of everything
that goes on in the outside world.
Often he doesn't know who Is President,
and. what Is more, he doesn't care rap.
There are people in the North woods who
don't know that the Spanish war is over,
and. up along the Allegash. others who
never heard that there was such a war.
The world is bigger than many people
realize-cspecially I'm the woods, where
news pcDctrdtes slowly.
In the first week after the crew has
gone the keeper is, very busy overvVork-
carnp; that is. set things in order. and
take a mental inventory Of the stuff left
over and at his disposal Having com
pleted this laborious task. he settles down
for a rest Of a few months. which rest is
interrupted only by fishing trips ex-
cursions into the woods TO look up places
frequented by moose and deer. and to To-
cate good gum trees. This knowledge is
useful to him in the following fall and
winter. for he cap sell ii to sportsmen.
AT the close % the season he gets his $50
or 500 all in a lump and that viii buy
him some clothes, lot of tobacco and
enough ammunition to last him until the
next spring. In winter he rests from his
exertions of the summer. and in spring
ne gets his job aSain.-Bangor Letter in
the New York Sun.

The supreme court has handed down
q decision affirming the lower court in
the case of George Glover against the
Board of Education Of the City Of Lead.
Glover refused t. have his children vac
cinated In Lead a year ago, and the
board elected them from school. Glover
undertook by mandam1s proceedings to
compel the board to admit his children.
The court granted the writ Of maDdamus
originally on the ground Of a defect in
the resolution passed by the board re
curing vaccination. The board remedi
ed the defect in the resolution. and
again elected the Glover children from
school, and Glover ~endeavored TO have
the members Of the board adjudged in
contempt for violating the mandamus.
The court dismissed them from COZ :
tempt and Glover took an appeal.-Pio-

The Minstrel Show.
PRICE BAKING POWDER CO..
CHICAGO.

Last Tuesday evening the people of
this place were given a rare treat in an
entertainment that was an entirely new
thing for Custer. The ladies gave an
old time minstrel show and to say that
It was good and appreciated By the large
audience present Is putting it very mild
to say the least. Time and space forbid
MS to make mention of each one Of the
% females in cork as they so richly de-
ser:e, suffice it to say that there was not
one i'm the performance but what filed
her part in a very creditable manner.
In the opening overture the bones
were ratified by three end men (ladies)
Mrs. Geo. c. Dickinson. Mrs. Ed. l..
Grantham and Mrs. S. +. Elliott. We
can ~truthfully say that the bones were
ratified with a vengeance. The tambos
were thumped by Mrs. +. w. Delicate,
Mrs. G. W. Pitcher and Miss Lula Pill
cher. Each one of them appeared to
be old hands at the business. Mrs. G..
G.. Crazy as interlocutor filed that place
to perfection.
During part first songs were sung by
the following ladies with full chorus at.
tachment. Miss Nellie Rutkowski, Miss
Lula Pitcher, Mrs. r. S. Lewis, Miss
Carrie Towner and Mrs. Z. w. Delicate.
Each one Of these songs were we'll select
ed and were sung with great credit to
the ladies who sang them.
A moment or two with Mrs. w. w.
Olds as hypnotist was more of II success
than a regular Hindoo hypnotist. That
is what everyone said, but Of course her
subject, Mrs. j. Sanders. was just the
right subject, as she took the house even
while under the Hypnotic Influence.
The Bellies of Blackville was the next
rendered with great success by the six
ladies of color. Next on the program
was the Pinks of Perfection, sung by
Miss Lottie Lincoln and Miss Lula Pill
cher, with a quick change in costume to
the Two Ragged Urchins. These two
songs were well rendered.
The Dutch EmIgrants by Mrs. w. w.
Odds, Miss Edith Feay, Miss Lottie Lin
coin, and Mrs. r. S. Lewis were all that
the house could stand, as the audience
asked them to wait until everybody
could get a breath.
Why is a What?, a stump speech by
Mrs. s. N. Fitch took the house by storm
and one unfortunate man lost hIs head
during the speech.
We feel unable to do justice to both
the march and cake walk rs they were
both too good to describe. 1t was re-
marked by nearly everyone that we
seldom see anything so good in that line
on the Custer stage, or any where else
for that matter.
The entertainment was gotten up by
Prof. Burton Klunk of Lead City, and
he Is to be congratulated upon making
such a success in so short time. The
entertainment vas repeated the second
night, and we all hope that in the near
future the Custer people may have m
thing else just as good.

She Was Excusable.

1--WE are not much Of II sport" says a
Kansas editor, "but when We meet a
cinch IN the road we recognize it. We
made the following bargain with a friend
yesterday. We were to stand at n given
point half an hour and watch the ladies
who passed. For every lady who reach.
ed her hand back to see if her skirt was
gaping or to tuck it under her belt We
were to receive a nickel, and for every.
one who failed to do so in walking a
block we're to give MIN Il dime. We got
sixty two nickels from him and gave
him one dime-a lady with both arms
off came along.
