Hitchcock, in addition to being the
only blind travelling man In the world,
is a unique character otherwise. He
always wears an antiquated stove
pipe hat, pair of blue spectacles, u
cane, with which he feels his way
along. He is So years of age and has
been on the road since 1874.

they come lie is able to distinguish and
call each by his right name. The other
day five men greeted him, one after
the other. No one OF the five knew
either of the other four, and they came
from different parts OF the country.
They had met the blind man, some
of them several years before. He re-
sDonded to each greeting, calling every
man by name and asking correctly
about the affairs of his home city.
One of Hitchcock's peculiarities is
that lie insists upon telling his friends
what lie has seen" on his travels and
in the newspapers, which he has read
to him every day. He keeps thorough
ly posted on public affairs. He delights
in reminding an acquaintance that he

The post office building at Virginia,

young man entering upon business ca
recr needs this quality-it is the one thing
without which he cannot hope to be
successful business man.
There is crisis in every mans life
when he is called upon to make mo-
mentous choice between the road to sue
cess and that leading to failure. He is
like man walking along straight road
who unexpectedly encounters fork in
the pathway. Here three roads diverge.
The center one, that most frequently TAX
en-, leads to mediocrity. OF the other two,
one leads to success and the other to
failure; there is no finger post, and a
mans decision depends entirely upon his
own intuition. This intuition Is merely
the outcome OF concentration. If man
has devoted his best efforts to the bust
ness he has in hand he possesses the
ability to make wise choice; if not, lie
is lost.
No one can advise at the critical mo-
ment. If the individual has earnestly
endeavored to master his business. and
has acquired a thorough knowledge of
it, he is in position to map out the
right course for himself; il not, no ad-
vice can prove availing.
To succeed to-day, man must possess
originality and perseverance; he must
master and understand himself and his
business and have stamina. Half-heart-
edness in business only leads to disap.
pointment. To succeed, man must con-
centrate his thoughts and energies upon
his work. and such concentration is
bound to bring its own reward.

Coleman, James and Robert Younger,

Coleman, James and Robert Younger,
Jesse and Frank James and four other
bandits rode into Mortified, Mimi, or
the afternoon of September Z, 1876,
with the purpose of robbing the First
National Bank and hurrying away
with their booty. AS they charged into
the quiet village they discharged their
reyolvers to frighten the populace,
and part of the gang rushed into the
bank. Mr.. Haywood, the cashier,
made a stubborn resistance and was
shot dead.
Immediately afterward fierce fight
took place in the street, citizens firing
on the outlaws from walls. doorways
and windows. One of the number, Clel
Miller, was killed and two citizens fell
fatally wounded. Mounting their
horses the desperadoes divided and gal
Hoped away. The James boys, who
made up one party, escaped over the 10.
wa border and thence to Missouri. The
other section was not so fortunate. 1t
moved southwestward and was. after
some days. traced to wooded swamp
near Madelia. Here a fierce fight fol-
lowed, in which all the outlaws were
killed except the Younger brothers.

men were sentenced to State prison

Garden Hints.

When getting the win y boxes and
garden urns ready use good, fresh soil.
Nothing is gained. and much may be
lost, by economizing in the matter of
earth.
Feverfew and the blue ageratum look
we'll together. The color contrast is
good, and the low-growing ageratum
hides the rather "spindling" stalks of
the faithful ld-fashloned white bloom
err.
Radlshes and lettuce should be re-
newed frequently. A good way of so
doing is 10 keep the fresh seed handy,
and. whenever radish or lettuce root
is pulled out, to drop seed or two into
the places left vacant.
Watch the rose bushes. Leave the
blossoms on the branches only long
enough to attain tri1e over fullest
development, and carefully control the
growth. Struggling stalks and shoots
should be ruthlessly pruned.
Use fine spray in watering the flow
ers. A hard, sharp stream works much
mischief, and heavy drops are not good
for delicate blossoms. The leaves
should never be sprayed In bright sun
shine. nor should the roots be too heav-
lily drenchcd.
If the violets AID other spring and
autumn boomers show signs of mildew
or mold because of too much rain, cut
off close to the ground Immediately.
The plants will find it easier to make
! renewed growth than to recover from
this creeping and insidious disease.

Coolies Do the Hard Work.

The brunt Of the hard labor in Ma
Mia. as in many eastern cities, is per-
formed by the coolie class. This is gen.
orally an ignorant but rather content
ed class. They receive very low wages
and subsist upon what other people
would throw away. They are indolent
unless driven by want of food, and
they bask In the sun like animals. One
Of the strange and Interesting sights
on any day in Manila is to witness the
coolies at their MONDAY siesta. They
sit about OH their launches and quietly
puff their pipes and appear but half
awake. This is always after they har
had full meal of rice and veg:
