'White feather"
1t was the Kids voice that rang out
over the tumult. The men stopped
where they were. What they saw held
them to the spot.
With one graceful, nonchalant swing
the Kid dropped from the window sill.
A moment later he had reached out
long strong arm and grasped the fated
lamp about IN handle: then, lifting it
high above his head. he flung it far out
through the open window.
There was deafening crash, a mo-
mentary yellow blaze. and all that re-
manned Of the tragedy was a heap of

from the inner recesscs of the cabin.

Elton Slang.

Every public school has its own Pc
culiar customs and slang, but Elton
seems to be particularly we'll supplied
in this respect. At Harrow 1t is or used
to be the height Of cheek for boy to
turn up his trousers till he had been
three years in the school, At Elton it Is
just the other way, and it is part Of the
school etiquette for boy to turn up
his trousers, to keep the bottom Of his
waistcoat unbuttoned and II he has
need to use an umbrella never to roll it
up.
Some of the so called Elton slang is
common to other schools. but most Of it
Is only to be understood of Etonians.
"Sock" as noun means food Of all
kinds: as verb it is equivalent to ito
give" "Scug" is primarily boy who
has no colors, but it is more particular
ly applied as general term Of abuse.
"A cOor at football is hard kick by
one Of the forwards. A tug" is of
course a colleger. and a "tosh pan" Il
q sort Of footbath.

some of the furniture.
Yesterday afternoon he came into
the La Belle restaurant and asked
for me. guess he wanted to make
me give him some money. The
walters told him was not in, and he
went away, but came back later in
the afternoon. l was not in then,
either and he picked up a chair and
ran two of my customers, who were
eating, out of the house. The cook
came out to see what was the, matter.
and Gonda hit him in the nose so
hard that blood flew all over.
when he could not find me at the
restaurant he waited for me at nv

stairs to where room, but he walked
up and down in front of the lodging

this morning l stayed in bed till z

How the Armada Fought.

The Spanish officers behaved with
the desperate heroism which became
the countrymen, of Cortes and Santa
Cruz, and never did Spanish soldier or
seaman distinguish himself more than
on this tremendous day. There was no
flinching, though the blood was seen
streaming out of the scuppers. Priests
went up and down under the hottest
fire, crucifix in hand, confessing and
absolving the dying.
But the engagement from the first
preserved the same character which
had been seen In those which had pre-
ceded it. The Spaniards' courage was
useless to them. Their ships could not
turn or sail, their guns We're crushed
by the superior strength Of the English
artillery. they We're outmatched In
practical skill, and, close as the ships
were to one another, they could not
once succeed in fixing a graphing iron
in an English rigging Thus, while
their own losses We're terrible, they
could inflict but little in return. They
had endured for five hours to be torn
to pieces by cannon shot, and that was
all.-Spanish Story of the Armada.

A RIVAL OF BUTTE
For the Dubious Title of Wickedest
City on Earth.

For the Dubious Title of Wickedest
City on Earth.
There is more truth in the report
that Spokane is the most immoral
city in the country than most people
are willing to believe. 1t is true,
nevertheless. If the statement Of a
reputable physician can be relied
upon, many of the school girls are
debauched and, in ignorance, enter
on lives of infamy. The stores Of
this city are trysting places, he says,
and its Offices are scenes of shame,
says the Spokane Spectator.
Zone evening recently" says this
physician, "a gentleman called me
up over the telephone, inquiring If
would be at home and if he might
call, to which l readily responded.
This gentleman is travelling man.
whom I have known for some time,
and whom to know is to admire, for
he is a Christian as we'll as gentle
man; not an old man, pessimistic and
foreboding, but in middle age, strong
minded and hearted.
HE said that what he had discov-
cred was an outrageous and ter
rible that he was shocked, and that
if the city felt it's disgrace as keenly
as he did it would hide its face in
shame and modification. At his no.
TEL" he said, "other statesmen had
been telling him that they did the
town the previous night. with GER
tain young lady of such a store,
naming the store and the position she
held; the others had been similarly
engaged, and it developed in the
course of conversation that that was
their custom and the custom Of many
others when they came to the city"
1t is not an uncommon thing to see
girls of tender years entering houses
of questionable reputation on some
of the thoroughfares where these
places abound. Spokane has more
houses where girls are led to ruin
than any other city in the country.
During the interval Of from O'Clock
to 1880 in the afternoon, one evening
IS girls of high school age were seen
to enter one of these so-called room
ing houses. Some of them had books
under their arms.
The travelling gentleman's home is
in one of the largest cities OF the
middle west. He says that there IS
more open vice in this city than in
many larger, and If there is so much
that is open, how much is there that
is not revealed?

A Terrible Revelation.

Nj. Sarccy was at one time very
shOrtsighted. but a successful operation
made him long sighted to an eXtraor
binary degree. This restoration of his
sight was not altogether an unmixed
blessing. For the first time since his
childhood he could see things ut Il dis
lance. His home, that he thought so
fine, was found to be neglected and
dirty; his precious china was Clipped
and cracked; his books We're soileu and
torn But the browning blow came
when grand luncheon was given to
celebrate the restoration of the critics
sight. Women We're invited in great
number and came in their very best.
The Comede Franchise, the Vaudeville,
the Odeon. were represented by their
fairest ones, and the table was Il sight
for the gods"-at least Sarccy would
have thought so six weeks before.
But very soon his countcnance fell,
and saw his eye wandering about in
astonshment-aye, in distress. He
laughed no more and looked miserable.
After the coffee he made sign to me,
and ! followed him upstairs, believing
him TO have been disturbed by the
thought of some work which ought to
be done ut once. But he threw himself
heavily on the sofa, which groaned as
if sharing its masters despair, and eX-
claimed pteOusly: Good heavens.
Why, they are ali frights. They are all
dyed. painted, wrinkled. scraggy. Oh,
mes bellies aimes, what has become of
them"

ders at the Bee office.
Lies February.
(Original.)


The February sky is low and gray,
Devoid of cheer, the gusty wind
blows chill;
How different from the warm, bright
yesterday
Peaceful and still.
So with my soul; for yester 1 could
sing;
My hopes were high; today brings
grief and woe.
Can tell what will the dismal NOR
row bring?
But none may know.
How like the year has been my en-
tire life;
A summer hopeful; restless fall, a
winter drear;
And mingling tears with joy, and
hope with strife,
Can spring be near?
But why let hope to ebb, or courage
bleed?
The autumn follows summer; win
ter, fall;
And, surely, spring the winter must
succeed;
Then joyous all!
Arise, my soul, put on garb of
cheer;
For better days must follow days
of woe,
AS sure as does the spring the season
drear;
God tells us so.
