neighborhood at 1856 Hewitt street
about 10 o'clock last night and for a

Bruins had already retired when he
fancied he heard a noise of someone
entering his abode and without further
thought he threw open front window
and began to shoot A passer-by was
the first thing the irate German spied
and at him he took two shots. The
stranger quickly got behind the friend
ly shelter of a nearby building and re-
mained there while Bruins emptied his
revolver at passing street car con-
ductor.
Both the men at whom Brun aimed
were unhurt, but were badly scared.
They reported to the policeman on the
beat that an attempt had been made
by crazy man to assassinate them,
but when the officer investigated he
found Bruins badly frightened, fearing
burglars. No rarest was made.

NEW YORK, March 27.-Andrew
Carnegie was the guest of honor at the
annual dinner of the alumni of Stevens
Institute at the Hotel Astoria tonight.
President Alexander G. Humphreys of
Stevens Institute announced that Mr.
Carnegie, in addition to the $290.00O
which he has already given to the In
stitute. would give $4,000 more, to
which he himself would add $4,000
when the alumni raised another $780,
000
Mr. Carnegie said In part:
II want to tell you gentlemen, that
your career is much higher than a
speculative one. Stock gambling is not
business; It is mere parasite on
business.
"If / had son | should prefer to
have him enter upon professional
career such as you choose rather than
any other. have been looking largely
into small colleges of late and | have
entered into the college business. as l
not long ago entered into the library
business.
81 did a riproaring business at the
library stand, but ] could look ahead
and see the demand for libraries
slacken. My secretary says that the
demand is down to one library a day.
l think young man who goes to a
small college receives a better educa-
ton than at a larger one. I like to see
men not excelllng in football or things
pertaining to the foot, but excelling in
head expansion. Sport is too generally
taking the place of knowledge at the
big colleges.
"Since / have gone into the new
business there has been a great boom.
Within the past few days 1 have re-
ceived more than 100 applications for
the material ] am sending to small
colleges. Business, gentlemen, is
promising"

| have carefully tried to explore
All the byways of civilized men;
l have searched and have hunted them
DER,
/ have hunted and hunted again.

l have searched In the maddening mob,
But attention l cannot command
When l ask far a laborless job

Should my diligent efforts commend.
What joy my proud bosom would feel
With an effortless job to contend
But, oh, search as will through the mart,
And oh. hunt as l may through the

1t is vain that I've studied my part;
Far too many there are who compete.
There are others that long for a place
In this maelstrom of cross currents deep;
They endeayor to go at pace
That their strength and their means
cannot keep,
And most loudly they elamor indeed.
For place that win salary pay;
Ii Is coin that they urgently need,
And the work is no object, they say.
There are many, too many, alas.
Who are searching as eager as II
They are furnished with ignorance Grass;
In assay of pure nerve they stand high
For a man who Is gentle and good
Who must mix with eultureless mob
II Is hard, be 1t well understood,
To catch on 10 iaborless job.

Return Of Flags.

AT last the efforts of the south to
have the government return the Con-
Tolerate battlefags captured during
the civil war to the governors of the
states from which they were taken,
have been rewarded.
The senate has adopted the follow
ing joint resolution;
Resolved, by the senate and house
of representative Of the United States
of America, in congress assembled,
That the secretary of war be, and he
is hereby, authorized to deliver to
the proper authorities of the respect
i've states in which the regiments
which bore these colors we're organ
lied, certain Union and Confederate
battleships now in the custody OF
the war department, for such final
disposition as the aforesaid proper
authorities may determine. :"
AS this resolution had previously
passed the house it only remains for
the president to approve it and en-
force its provisions. Efforts were
made to have the hattleAags return
ed during Cleveland's second term,
but certain northern governors pro-
tested so loudly that it was deemed
expedient to pass the matter over
without action.
In the list of states from which
flags were captured we notice the
following reference to Arkansas:
Sixth Volunteers, Macon, Ca;
Eighth, not known; Nineteenth, not
known; Sixth and Seventh, Jones-
boro, September, 1864; Thirteenth,
Murfreesboro, February 1868; Thir-
tenth, inscribed Pennington, Miss,
and Richmond, Ky; First Artillery,
Jonesboro, Ga, September 1, 1864 "
The towns mentioned following
the number Of the regiment proba-
bly, designate the points at which
the flags were captured.
There is a strong sentiment in the
south in favor Of returning these old
battle SCARED flags to the survivors
Of the regiments from which they
were captured. The survivors who
are members of various camps will
feel profoundly grateful for the privi-
lege Of marching again under the
flag that they followed so faithfully
in the dark days Of the civil war.

Impoverished Soil

Impoverished soil, like impov-
erished blood, needs a proper
fertilizer. A chemist by analyz-
ing the soil can tell you what
fertilizer to use for different
products,
If your blood is impoverished
your doctor will tell you what
you need to fertilize it and give
it the rich, red corpuscles that
are lacking in it. 1t may be you
need a tonic, but more likely you
need a concentrated fat food,
and fat is the element lacking
in your system.
There is no fat food that is
so easily digested and assimi-
lated as
