America, and become q citizen again
of that grand old country Of the stars
and stripes, and asked dad how he
could do it. for he said he had rather
work in slaughter house in America
than be grand duke In England.
Il never saw dad look so sorry for q
man as he did for Astor, and he told
him the only way was to sell out his
ranch in London and go back ON an
emigrant ship, take out his first pa
pers. vote the democratic ticket and
eventually become a citizen. Astor
was thinking over the proposition, and
dad had asked him if he was not
afraid of dynamiters, when he shud-
dered and said every day he expected
to be blown sky high, and finally he
smelled something burning and said
the smell reminded him of an Ameri-
can Fourth of July.
You see, had been sitting still on
the step of the verenda so long got
nervous, for something exciting, so
took a giant frecracker out OF my
pocket and lit the long tail, and showed
it under the porch and looked inno-
cent, and just then one Of the fiunkies
with the tightest pants you ever saw
came along and patted me on the head
and said was nice boy, and that
made me mad, and when he went to
sit down beside me on the step / took
my horse chestnut out Of my pocket
and put it on the step just where he
sat down, and how it happened to
come out SO don't know, it must have
been Providence. You see just as the
flunkey funked on the chestnut burr,
the firecraeker went OF, and the man
jumped up and said: 'Ell's-6re, ham
blowed. and he had his hands on his
pants, and the air was full OF smoke,
and dad got on his knees and said:
Now lay me- and Mr.. Astor faint
ed all over rocking chair and tipped
beer bottles on the iveranda and more
than 40 servants came, and told dad
to come on, and we got outside the
gate, ahead Of the police, and got a
cab and drove quicker than scat to
the hotel, and | asst dad what he
thought it was that went or, and he
said: You can search me- but he
said he had got enough OF trying to
reform escaped Americans, and we got
in the hotel and laid low, and the
newspapers told about q dynamite

Aerial NAVIGATION.


According to the most up-to-date and
successful aeronaut of the century, A.
Roy Knabenshue, all hope of success
fully navigating the air in a practical
and useful way may as well be aban-
doned. Speaking from experience, he
said: Il am ready to state positively
that the airship in general never will
be a success. I believe it is now az
the height of its achievement" After
telling of certain requisites and what
he had accomplished he went on to
state the reasons for his conclusion
The first is: "Above Is miles an hour
the pitch is SO great that one cannot
ride. -. There is no way to con-
troll this, as we cannot make vac
uum OF the currents we meet above the
lower levels. The second reason lies

Institutions Of Learning.

1
To-day, in the United States, two
radically different plans for the support
and conduct of higher institutions Of
learning are in process of development:
the one that Of the private university,
the other the university supported and
controlled by the state. The first finds
ats notable examples mainly amongst
the older universities of the east, the
second IN the universities Of the central
and western states, writes Henry S.
Pritchett, in Atlantic. While these last
are younger. their growth has been
rapid, not only in the number OF their
instructors and students, but in facili-
Ties and in income. A table which fol-
lows, contains in condensed form GER
tain data concerning these two groups
OF universities which are suggestive,
and which show how nearly comparable,
% lar as material considerations meas
ure equality, these two groups of insti-
tutions have become. The comparison
shows that IN the six older universities
OF the eastern states 1888 teachers are
dealing with 18,498 students, at an an
nual cost OF little more than $5,0O0,-
600, while in the six western state uni
versities somewhat smaller number of
teachers is dealing with student body
larger by 1000, at cost of little mora
than $4,O0O.000. The first student group
includes but few women, the second
considerable proportion of women. In
number Of instructors, in number of stu
dents, and in amount of annual income
the second group is rapidly gaining on
the first.

near being arrested on the cars from
Liverpool to London.
when we got off the steamer and
tried to find the widow who robbed
dad of his roll of money, but never
found her, we were about the last pas
sengers to reach the train, and when
we got ready to get on we found these
English cars that open on the sides,
and they put you into box stall with
some other live stock, and lock you
in, and once in awhile a guard opens
the door to see if you are dead from
suffocation, or have been murdered by
the other passengers. Dad kicked on
going in one of the kennels the first
thing, and said he wanted a parlor
car; but the guard took dad and gave
him shove, and tossed me in on top
of dad, and two other passengers and
woman in the compartment snick-
cred, and dad wanted to fight all OF
'em except the woman.
when the door closed dad told the
guard he would walk on his neck when
the door opened, and that he was not
an entry in dog show, and he want
ed a kennel all to himself, and asked
for dog biscuit. Gee, but that guard
was mad, and he gave dad look that
started the train going. I whispered
to dad to get out his revolver, because
the other passengers looked like hold
up men, and he took his revolver out
of his satchel and put it in his pistol
pocket, and looked fierce, and the
woman began to act faint, while the
passengers seemed to be preparing to
jump on dad il he got violent. WheE
the train stopped at the first station
I got out and told the guard that the
old gentleman in there was from
Helena, Mont, and that he had q
reputation from st. Paul to Portland,
and then I held up both hands the
way train robbers make passengers
hold up their hands.
