the institutions on Randall's and Black

rate has been reduced by the Infant So

The citizens Of Santa Fe are making
another effort to have Fort Marcy re

there is no necessity for troops at thai

Regiment when DOniphan's regimen:
marched for chihuahua.
The post for nearly half a centur.
was the headquarters Of the Depart
ment Of New Mexico. At it have been
stationed many of the most eminent
men In the military annals Of the na-
ton. With the decay of the old adobe
buildings, from whose sides cannon
frOwned down on Santa Fe. new build
ings were constructed at tie base of
the bluff. The post was named after
William l.. Marcy, who was War Sec
rotary during Folks administration.
With the new policy of concentrating
troops in larger bodies near some great
city, Fort Marcy was abandoned, as
were a dozen other posts in New Mex
leo, the allegiance of the Mexican pop
ulatiOn being assured and the Indian
problem having been practically solved.
But with the departure of the troops
Santa Fe felt hat her historic pres
tige was declining. The city had never
been without a garrisOn-Spanish, Mex
lean or American-for 800 years. Ere
quent petitions have been made for the
restoration of the post. There is not
now. we believe, says the Denver
News, a single garrison post in New
Mexico, and there were formerly near
ly a dozen. In the redistribution of
troops among the various army posts
there is NJ good cas- why the ardent
wish of Santa Fee should not be granted
and at least a squadron Of cavalry sent

And the Deposits of the CheckhoIdcr

Here is a story of two well-known
young BaltimOreans, whom we will call
Mr.. Tom Black and Mr.. Dick So-and-
SO. Each prides himself on being absO.
lutely up to date and up to snuff In all
particulars. Tom called around TO see
Dick one morning a short time ago. and
had scarcely passed through the door
before Dick exclaimed:
BY George. The very man. Say.
Tom, l want 10 90 to Boston this after
noon, and ] need $40. | wish you'd let
me have it. l really wouldn't ask you.

old man. Come in and sit down"

stepped around to see if you wouldn't
let me have that $1O0 you already owe
me-if it's perfectly convenient"
Dick seemed to make Il hurried men
tai calculation. and then told his friend
that he would give him a check for
that amount, but didn't think he had
quite that much in bank.
But you can go down and see" he
added.
So Tom tool the check. invited Dick
to go to the theater with him that even
ing, and hurried down to the bank. The
paying teller tOOk the check. strolled
back, looked at Dicks account. and re-
turned to the window, shaking his
head.
How much does it take to make it
good?" asked Tom.
"Not allowed to tell" replied the
teller.
Tom went to the receiving teller and
deposited $40 to Dicks credit. but that
didn't make the check good. Another
$40 and still others were put M. with
the same result, until Tom began to
perspire and the bank people to laugh.
Finally Tom deposited his tenth $40,
with the remark that it was a tough
game to be up against, and he again
presented the check, only to be met
with another shake of the teller's head
and the ~information: Every sorry. Mr..
Blank, but that account was somewhat
Overdrawn."
Tom gave it up and dashed out of the
bank. He had no sooner gone than
Dick sauntered in, and, asking how
much he had to his credit, was told
500.
"Just cash me this check for $780," he
said, land if you see Tom Blank to-day

Hairdressing I'm China.

In China the BARRIERS calling is sup
ported by government. Although his
squat q only covers an inch or two
at a time and makes the operation IN
necessarily tedious, the barber has the
advantage Of knowing that he repre-
sents lawful authority, somewhat as a
public vaccinator does here. He ought
never to suffer from being out Of work.
Then his p%erquisite. the combings,
makes up for natural deficiencies. He
can sell at clear profit tails Of his own
collecting and making. Perhaps the
fact that Chinese hair offers little va
riety in color simplifes this kind of
commerce. The more sable the hair is.
the better; children'S heads are shaven
In order that the tail may afterwards
be as black and thick as possible. A
Chinaman plaits white silk into his
hair when he goes into mourning.
Tales of a tail might be multiplied. The
Chinaman's is more expressive than
any that has not the power to wag with
satisfaction or droop with dismay. For
convenience in work 1t is fastened up
In a coil. but for a nan to speak to
his superior without letting it down is
an insult. No Christian would enter
church in this d%eshabille; a stranger
might possibly do so. and. in such a
case. before beginning the service, the
officiating minister would fix him with
a glance. and politely-for the natives
expect %politeness under all circum.
stances-address him:

is catarrh.

cupied ana where she performed her
task Is in the upper tenement. Some
days there Is almost a steady stream of
callers, and the number increased SO
rapidly that it took up the time Of one
servant answering the bell and inter
fered with household affairs so much
that the door had to be closed to all
strangers.
The room which Is the subject of
such solicitation is plain. small and Is
lighted by a small gable window and
a skylight in the roof. which Is to be
seen in the picture. One door opens
into the hallway and the other leads
to a small closet. The view is practi-
cally confined to a glimpse Of the next
housetop. which may be obtained
through the skylight by dint Of cram
ing ones neck, and the beauties Of a

to distract Mrs. Eddy's attention from
