Five Glasses of Mules.

Many persons dc not know what
constitutes the five classes of marketa-
BILE mules known as cotton mules, lu-n-
Der mules, railroad mules, sugar mules
and miners. Cotton mules are most nu-
merous. They range from thirteen to
sixteen hands high and may be of yari-
Gus builds so long as they are smooth
They sell at S75 to S165 apiece.
Lumber mules are large, heavy boned
and rugged for use in big lumber camps.
Their price ranges up to $3.50. The rail-
road mules are similar, but need not
have so much weight. They are SIS to
$50 cheaper. They are used in grading
and hauling. Sugar mules are lighter.
They must be smooth, with small head
and neck and smaller bones. Their price
is from $50 to 500.
Farm mules are the culls rejected
from the other classes. Levee mules are
used near steamboats, and docks for the
heavy work. The miners are the hard
est class to supply. They must be either
a dark bay or black color. White and
sorrei mules are never used. Where
the mines have long shafts, In the Penn
sylvania coal region especially. they say
white mule resembles ghost and
frightens the other mules beyond con-
troll.
The government buys all classes OF
Missouri mules, but never a cheap one,
and the examination OF mules for the
public service Is rigid.

CHAPTER XIII.

Not until a fortnight after his visit
to Jerome could Stafford obtain his Gag
erly desired interview with Constance.
He had Travelled to Guildford the next
morning by the first train, aad hung about
the neighborhood of Linden Grange in the
hope of accidentally meeting her. But
the hope was not fulfilled. The next day,
by dint of indirect inquiries, he learned
that she was confined to her room by
severe cold. He contriyed to get letter
conveyed to her and to receive reply,
making an appointment.
The DIV on which tney met was Ar
thurs and Eleonore's wedding day. The
place was the same which had witnessed
their meeting some ten weeks back. Spite
of himself. he could not prevent his first
greeting being cold and restrained.
What has happened. Edward?' she
asked, anxiously. why have you writ
ten so urgently to mef"
For your sake more than mine" he
answered ito clear your name from a
blighting calumny."
She turned very pale. and asked family
what he meant. He observed the look
and tone, and it struck a pang Of fear
to his heart But it brought HIM at once
to the point, and made him speak plainly
and concisely. SO. without one word OF
preface or observation. he told the story,
every incident of it, from Jerome's first
meeting with the so-called Katie Doran
on Westminster Bridge, to his, Stafford 3,
discovery of the picture in the gallery OF
Penrhyddyn, and the conversation he had
heard upon his last visit to Jerome's
studio. Then he waited her reply.
During the course of his narrative the
pale. panied look upon her face had grad
uaIly changed to one of puzzled inquiry.
But | know nothing of all this she
said. when he had finished 81 never
heard of this Jerome or of his painting.

hand and pressing it passionately to his
lips.

whole story that have any knowledge Of
I perfectly remember some men staring
rudely at me in Harley street one day
as was stepping into my carriage; and
that they afterwards came Up to the win
dow, which my uncle drew up in their
faces"

quite pale at the sight of him, and in this
assertion he was corroborated by a sec

of Mr.. Jerome, considering that | had

A BOSTON EARTHQUAKE.
O~~~N~


Few cities have had experiences
which will bear comparison with that
of San Francisco and Kingston, but
Boston INDUCED once in a little shake"
of its own, conducted on modest prin-
ciples, yet spreading disaster and the
sense of terror. On Nov. is, 1155, "a
little after on a serene and pleasant
night" Boston was reused by an earth
quake which lasted nearly five min
utes. A writer of the times gives an
account of the catastrophe, and Rev.
Henry White quotes it in his Early
History of New England"
One hundred chimneys were leveled
to the roofs of the houses and fifteen
hundred were shattered in part The
streets were covered with bricks which
had fallen. The ends Of brick houses
were thrown down.
1t was first introduced with noise
like several coaches rafting over pave
ments, OF rather like many carloads
of paving stones thrown down. The
first motion was strong pulsation,
which threw my house upward, imme-
diately after a tremor succeeded then
Instantly a quick vibration with sudden
jerks followed.
The first view l had was Of the
steeples of the churches, and was glad
to see them standing, but the spindle
and vane Of Faneuil Hall Market were
thrown down.
Many persons ran into the streets,
shrieking with apprehension Of its be-
Ing the last day or the judgment, and
some thought they heard the last trun-
pet sounding, and cried for mercy. The
beast creatures lowed, the birds fut-
tered in surprise, and all the animal
creation was filed with terror. Every
face looked CHASTITY and many knees
smote together. Never was such q
scene of disaster in New England be-

Fisher stayed at ranch owned by

her master she aroused his curiosity.
This done, she led him TO litter or

dwindled down to two before many
weeks had passed. When Mr.. Fisher

missed Gyp. Believing she had gone

A happy thought struck Mr.. Fisher
two weeks ago. He dropped post

received.

that Gyp had reached
the Jensen ten days before.

College Morals.

Some years ago the president Of an
American university, in comforting the
doctors degree on professor who
was also a great administrative off,
Ger, attributed the professors power
among the undergraduates to his faith
In the predominance of good in young
men. This is in pleasant contrast to
the recent utterance of the head Of
another American university, which
implied that low state of morals ex-
lists in our institutions Of learning,
and imputed to the governing officers
of some of. those institutions indiffer;
ence to the ethical well-being Of the
students. Young men are not saints.
College faculties cannot be police off,
GERS. 1t Is not necessary that they
should be. But no one who has at
tended any American college can be-
lieve that his alma mater is an I'm.
safe place for most young men. The
variety of physical and intellectual
interests abundantly engages youthful
energy and does not leave much for
dissipation. To one student who
passes the night in rioting are hun
dreds who come in healthily tired
from the field, read an hour or two,
and go to bed. If young man is not
safe in college he is not safe any
where. even a block away from home,
says Youths Companion. The tone Of
college life is distinctly high compared
with most environments in which a
young man might find himself. The in
creasing number Of poor men working
their way through college establishes
tone Of industry which the few ruff
fans and idlers are not numerous
enough to dispel. Unfortunately, when
a college man does misbehave, his i'll
deed, even if 1t be not grave enough
to give notoriety to young man not
in college, Is printed in the newspa-
pers, which contrive to give the name
of the college conspicuous place.
Careful parents shake their heads, and
without reason conclude that the busi-
ness life is more SOLDERING than life in
college. This unfair view is damag.
ing to the whole system of higher edu-
cation, the endeavor of which in our
country is to invite youth and strength
into the educated life.
