The Conductor Had to Push.
“If you don’t leave that pin alone you will
cut this trailer off before we get to Garfield
avenue,” sharply spoke a portly old gentle-
man to the conductor of a street car which
was skimming along Lincoln avenue.
“If you will’tend to yer own business I can
manage this car-,” was the response, as the
fellow went on saving time, two blocks south
of the Garfield corner, where the trailer
should be dropped.
Suddenly there was a yell, as the legs of the
conductor went up in the air and he hung
half over the dash board.
“Hi, there! Stop that cable! You are
running away from the trailer!” yelled the
astonished conductor as he recovered his
balance from the jerk which he had received
while trying to hold on to the pin chained to
the grip car. The grip went on. He could
not hold as a link. As the crestfallen fellow
informed the passengers that they would
have to get off, as he would have to push the
car for two blocks, the portly man replied:
“Well, I guess not. Not in this rain. You
cut us off—now you push us to the corner.”
The conductor looked astonished. He
stepped outside and called for the horses, two
blocks away, but the driver only answered,
“Bring on your car.” Disgusted and defeat-
ed, he put his shoulder to the car and by the
assistance of the down grade and two boys
he pushed the passengers and the car to the
turn.—Chicago Tribune.

Ocean Steamships.
An order for a new ship of the class re-
quired to compete in the modern passenger
service of the Atiaiftic is not by any means
a matter to be determined on without grave
consideration. Speed is costly, and as you
increase it it is generally necessary to also
increase the tonnage. This forces upon your
1 consideration tides, channels, harbor bars
and do®k accommodations, all of which im-
pose limitations upon you. And then the cost
. of the ship herself is not a matter which even
the wealthiest of corporations can provide
for at a moment’s notice; it is not 8100,000,
■ nor $500,000 that the work calls for, but
about five times the latter sum, for it is safe
tp say that a vessel superior to the City of
New York or the Etruria could not be built
for less than $2,500,000. Sometimes the
shipbuilders are willing to become part own-
ers of the projected vessel; sometimes they
take as part payment for the work some older
vessels of the line, which they refit, re-engine,
. modernize and sell again.
The ability of the builders to make an ar-
rangement of this kind, of course, influences
• the placing of the contract, in a measure, but
. they must also be able to give Certain guar-
antees. They must enter into an engage-
ment that the projected ship shall be able to
carry so many passengers and so many tons
of cargo and to attain a specified speed on a
given consumption of coal per day. Let us
: tay, for instance, that the stipulations are
these: Accommodations for 600 saloon pas-
sengers, 150 intermediate passengers and
1,500 steerage passengers; registered tonnage,
6,090; speed, 19 knots on a consumption of
300 tons per day. If the ship fails to fulfill
these conditions the builders agree to forfeit a
. part of the amount they would otherwise re-
! ceive for her, or they may be compelled to
j take her back altogether. This was the case
. with the City of Rome, which was built for
3 toe Inman lin® by the Barrow Shipbuilding
s company.—Scribner’s.

in that city’s hotel life which seems worth
relating.
They were four in number, all Americans,
and they were having dinner in the gor-
geously furnished dining room of the Hotel
Metropole. When the soup was brought the
Pittaburger in the party asked the waiter to
bring some crackers.
“Beg pardon,” said the waiter; “what did
you say, sir?”
“Crackers,” replied the Pittsburger.
The waiter looked puzzled, but walked off
and did not appear again near the table for
several minutes. The soup was getting cold,
and the Pittsburger called another waiter
and sent him after the first with a renewed
injunction to bring some crackers. Another
minute or two passed, and then both waiters
re-entered the room with the stately head
waiter. They were engaged in earnest con-
versation for another minute. At last the
waiter originally sent bashfully approached
the Americans and laid beside the Pittsburg-
er’s plate a pair of silver nutcrackers.
There was a general laugh, in which the
Pittsburger joined, when another member of
the party said: “If you want crackers to eat
you must call them biscuits as long as you’re
in England.”—Cor. Pittsburg Dispatch.

A Converted Assassin.
City front pedestrians were edified recent-
ly by the eloquence of the first Chinese evan-
gelist who has made his appearance in that
locality. He announced his name as Ah Qui.
He did not claim any connection with either
the Salvation Army or the Holiness band.
“Ten years ago I was a very bad man,”
said he. “What you call highbinders here—
that’s what I was in Canton. I worked for a
big mandarin fifteen years. During that
time I killed fifty-one people for money.
Twenty of them were women. I will tell you
how I was converted. My master set his eyes
on a Christian Chinese girl, but could not get
her, so I was sent to kill her. I was to re-
ceive $10 for the act. I found her alone in
the house one night, and on her refusal to ac-
company me to my master I told her she must
die. She asked time to pray. I was so af-
fected that the knife dropped from my hand,
and that incident led me to Christianity. I
grew to love her, and she became my wife
The preacher at whose house she lived mar-
ried us.
“One night ws were seized and carried |o
the house of my farmer master. He ordered
me to murder her and I refused to do it.
Then he said that another would perform
that office and that I could end my days by
hari-kari. His order was obeyed in one case.
They disrobed my wife and three men bound
her, while another cut off limb after limb.
She prayed tor them while they were doing
this as long as she had breath in her body.”
At this point Qui leaped into the air and
shrieked three unearthly yells, while the
crowd who had listened to the weird story
stood aghast with suppressed excitement. He
seemed to be insane for at least a minute.
Then, wiping his eyes, he exclaimed:
“The next day I escaped, and here I am.”
The exhortation which followed lasted for
at least twenty minutes, and was intensely
earnest. He said that he proposed to go
through this land and tell the story of his
conversion to show the power of grace.—San
Francisco Examiner.

Cement for Leather.
The cement used for patching the uppers of
fine shoes is generally made by dissolving
gutta pereha in methylated chloroform until
the mixture is abou t as thick as sirup. Scrape
and pare clean around the hole to be covered,
and thin carefully with a long chamfer the
edges of the bit of leather to be applied. Only
a little of the cement is needed, but the sur-
face must be pressed close together. The
parts vyill adhere firmly in a few minutes.—

Convincing Proof.
In many instances it has been proven that B.
B. B., (Botanic Blood Balm), made by Blood
Balm Co. Atlanta, Ga., will cure blood poison in
its worse phases, even when all other treatment
fails.
A. P. Brunson, Atlanta, Ga., writes: “I had 24
running ulcers on one leg and six on the other,
felt greatly prostrated. I believe I actually swal-
lowed a barrel of medicine in vain efforts to cure
the disease. With little hope I finally acted on the
urgent advice of a friend, and got a bottle of B.
B. B. I experienced a change, and my despond-
ency was somewhat dispelled. I kept using it
until I had taken sixteen bottles, and all the
ulcers, rheumatism and all other horrors of
blood poison have disappeared, and at last I am
sound and well again, after an experience of
' twenty years of torturs.”
Robt. Ward, Maxey, Ga., writes: “My disease
was pronounced a tertiary form of blood poison.
My face, head and shoulders were a mass of cor-
ruption, and. finally the disease began eating my
skull bones. My bones ached, my kidneys were
deranged, I lost flesh and strength, and life be
came a burden. All said I must surely die, but
nevertheless, when I had used ten bottles of B.
B. B. I was pronounced well. Hundreds of scars
can now be seen on me. 1 have now been wel
over twenty months.”

“Bulls.”
The following fine specimens may W en-
tered in competition for a prize, English
against Irish “bulls.” The first is from The
Morning Chronicle, June 19, 1884: “Tpinves-
tigate the question, however, would iea4 us
too deeply into the dry and troubled waters
of moral philosphy.” I do not remember
in what paper the following appeared, but
the elate was Jan. 7, 1839, when there had
been a tremendous hurricane:
chimneys fell, burying the inmate^ in the
ruins.” “A row of cottages fell, b®t fortu-
nately the inmates were all out.”
These two came out in one of the Sheffield
papers: “At first sight, the electioneering
addresses sound thoroughly prote®$®aasfe”
“The house [i. e., the attendance at tb« tfeoa-
was not so good as we had bqpecl to
have seen it, but there were more p'ersnns
present than we expected to have seen”—
(which is rather like Joe Miller’s pig jobber,
who, being asked what sort-of marktA had
made, replied: “Not so good as I j^peoted
and I thought I shouldn’t.”) A third is from
a leading article in the same paper on the
czar of Russia: “At any rate, if the czar
did show any heat, it is probable that he
would go to sleep upon it.” I ones Ward an
American revivalist, in his loudest tones,
rave and roar about the “icebergs of damna-
tion.”—The Spectator.

backed up against a shelf and upset a

“ ’Bout ten minutes. That’s when the

His Shoes Gave Him Away.
“Ma’am,” said the tough looking cus-
tomer who stopped at a farm house in
Cambria county, Pa., “I trust you will
excuse my personal appearance. I am a
reporter who has been sent to write up
the Johnstown disaster. I have walked
nearly the whole length of the devastated
valley, but in trying to make my way
across by a short cut I got lost. My
clothes, as you see, are somewhat dilapi-
dated, but I have worn them out in
clambering over stones and rubbish. If
you will kindly furnish me a dinner I
will send you the pay for it when I
reach my lodgings at Johnstown. My
money is all in my valise.”
“You wore your clothes out in climb-
ing ovei- rubbish, I think you said?”
“I did, ma’am.”
“Every reporter I have seen who has
been in the valley, sir,” rejoined the
farmer’s wife, looking at her caller’s
feet, “has had a great deal better look-
ing clothes and a great deal worse look-
ing shoes than yours. You could have
had the dinner and welcome, but you
tried to deceive me. You are a fraud.”
“Ma’am,” said the tramp, as he picked
up his bundle and started down the road
again, “you have sized me up exactly.
I forgot about the shoes. I shall not try
the reporter racket at the next house.
Good morning, madam.”—Chicago Tri-
bune.

Cold Storage. (
The business of freezing meats and fish and '
preserving perishable products by various
systems of freezing and cold storage has come
to be an important feature of . commerce.
New York city now has eight large establish- ~
ments devoted to it, with an aggregate ea- s
pacity of 15,000 tons, besides many private
“plants” belonging to separate produce
houses, Some Of them use the old process of -
ice and salt, while others use the amrnonfo 1
process. By the former a temperature of 5
degs. can be reached, and with ammonia it is
said the mercury can be .sent down to 20 degs. 1
below zero.
The freezing material is sent through pipes j
which line the large rooms in the refrigerator j
store houses and become incrusted with ice,
keeping the atmosphere crisp, dry and as
cold as may be desired. Poultry is the chief
commodity thus preserved, and it is often j
kept frozen fifteen months. One firm stored 7
last season 2,100 pairs of prairie chickens, ]
15,000 pairs of grass plover, 600 pairs of can-
vasback ducks and 1,300 dozen English snipe.
The system saves great loss and enables deal- I
ers to make special profits on meats andfruitS/ 1
out of season. Fruits and nuts are kept in a
more moderate temperature just above freez- <
ing. Great quantities of beef and other meats,
eggs, vegetables, etc., are kept in these houses,
and if proper care is exercised it is claimed
that the flavor is improved by long freezing.

«WHAT MIEDICSNES AISE MOST
asked the reporter of an old druggist.
“Dr. Pierce’s preparations,’’ he replied.
“They are sold under a positive guar-
antee that they will, in every case, give
satisfaction, er the money is promptly re-
funded. His ‘Favorite Prescription,’ for all
those chronic weaknesses, nervous and other
derangements peculiar to women, is used with
unfailing success. It cures weak back, bear-
ing-down sensations, irregularities and weak-
nesses common to the sex, and being the
most perfect of tonic medicines builds up
and strengthens the entire system. The de-
mand for it is constant, and I am conversant
with scores of cases cured by it.”
Returning after a few moments’ absence,
the venerable wielder of the pestle remarked,
“the number of sa.rsaparillas and other, -so-
called, ‘blood medicines’ is legion; but Dr.
Pierce’S Golden Medical Discovery outsells
them all and it is the only blood-purifier out
of the many which I am obliged to keep upon
my shelves, that is guaranteed, to benefit or
cure in all cases for which it is recommended,
or money paid for it is refunded.”
“ In the line of Pilis,” remarked the old gen-
tleman, “the little Sugar-coated ‘Pellets’
put up by Dr. Pierce lead all others, both in
amount of sales and the general satisfaction
they give my customers.”
