Two Epitaphs.
Remarkable are two epitaphs, the first
of which is said to be upon a tombstone
in the city of Sacramento: “Here is laid
Daniel Borrow, who was born in Sorrow,
and Borrowed little from Nature except
his name and his love to mankind and
hatred to redskins; who was neverthe-
less a gentleman and a dead shot; who,
through a long life, never killed his
man except in self defense or by acci-
dent, and who, when he at last went
under, beneath the bullets of his cow-
ardly enemies in the saloon of Jeff Mor-
ris, did so in the sure and certain hope
of a glorious and everlasting Morrow.”
The other, which belongs to a Nevada
burying place, is a noteworthy achieve-
ment in this line. “Sacred to the
Memory of Hank Monk—the Whitest,
Biggest-hearted, and Best-known Stage-
driver of the West; who was kind to All
and Thought Ill of None. He Lived in
a Strange Era, and was a Hero, and the
Wheels of his Coach are now Ringing on
Golden Streets.”—Chambers’ Journal.
It is not to be supposed that Hon.
Walter Gresham will have a walkover in
his district, but if he receives recognition
for past services, in other words if true
merit is rewarded and ability and ex-
perience appreciated, he will be chosen
to represent his district in congress.
That citizen in Houston who, while
in company with Maj. Ike Stafford and
T. IT. Lubbock, had “a stitch in his
right rear side” to such an extent as to
be rendered senseless, must have been
listenening to one of the major’s stories
and heard it endorsed by T. IT. Those
two worthies have in combination been
the cause of many stitches.
The Power of Observation.
The Bank Clerk—It’s a shame the way
some men rob their employers by loafing
when they’re paid to work. There’s a
bricklayer on that new building across
the street who hasn’t done a stroke for
an hour—I know it, because I’ve done
nothing but watch him.—London Tit-
Bits,
A Tragic Kindergarten Episode.
A certain kindergarten is blessed 'with
the attendance of a very original youth
named Richard. He is a very honest
little boy and highly respected by his
parents, but the other afternoon when
he came home he acknowledged frankly
to his mother that a punishment had
been inflicted upon him at the kinder-
garten.
“Why, what have you done?”
“Well, you see,” he answered, “John-
ny and I got tired of being good, and we
made up our minds that we would just
get our heads together and holler out
the very naughtiest word we could
think of, both together.”
The mother was inexpressibly shocked.
Johnny was another very nice and well
bred boy. But she managed to ask:
“Well, what did you say?”
“We just screamed out ‘Bedbug!’ as
loud as we could!”
Probably this tragic episode has never
had its duplicate in the history of kinder-
gartening.—Boston Transcript.
Seventeen and fifteen years were the
respective ages of a young couple who
eloped and got married at Edgefield,
S. C,, one day last week. ..... ...
A Newspaper in an Earthquake.
Probably no issue of a newspaper was
ever put in type under more trying cir-
cumstances than this issue. The type
was badly pied, and as it was put in
position it was necessary to wedge it
securely to keep each shock from undo-
ing the work of days. The compositors
stood bravely at their posts, even in mo-
ments of the greatest danger, when the
brick walls threatened to collapse and
bury them in the ruins. We were com-
pelled to move our office after Thurs-
day’s shock, and much more damage
was done, but we, after all, were de-
layed but three or four hours with our
edition.—Dixon (Cal.) Tribune.
Twenty-one churches and chapels in
England were struck by lightning last
summer. An authority declares that 70
per cent, of the lightning conductors
now in use are in an unsatisfactory con-
dition.
The exact site of the famous Black
Hole of Calcutta, long supposed to be
lost, has lately been rediscovered in the
course of excavating the foundations of
buildings in Old Fort William.
The Blood Circulates Rapidly.
Medical workers have made many cu-
rious experiments, but none more won-
derful than that by which they ascer-
tained the exact time required for the
blood to make one entire trip through
the system, which all students of physi-
ology know means a complete circula-
tion through the lungs, veins, arteries
and general capillary arrangements.
Professors Dalton, Hering, Poissenille,
Matteucci and Blake have been the chief
investigators in this line, the first named
having become more eminent in this
particular branch of research from
having the experience of the others to
fortify himself with. All the old school
anatomists believed that a considerable
time elapsed, say from three to nine
minutes, from the time when the blood
left the right side of the heart, traversed
the whole system and then again re-
turned to the starting point; Dalton has
shown that the time is much shorter
than was formerly generally supposed.
He says: “Dozens of carefully tabu-
lated tests of this somewhat extraordi-
nary subject shows that the blood of
man makes a complete circulation once
every fifteen to twenty-five seconds, ac-
cording to the physical conditions of the
subject experimented upon.”—St. Louis
Republic.
Medicine Lake.
Medicine lake is a wonder that draws
many visitors annually—a body of water
that does not contain a living thing, and
at certain hours of the day is full of a
gelatinous, spongelike substance that
sinks and leaves the water clear. At
the lake are two mountains, one of pure
obsidian, the other of pumice stone in
layers.—Potter Four Corners.
Two Stories of Lucky ."liners.
A few of the many stories that are
told of miners’ luck will enable the
reader to understand how and why the
heads of whole communities may be
turned in mining regions. Jim Whit-
latch, the discoverer of the Whitlatch-
Union mine, near Helena, led a typical
western miner’s life. The mine in ques-
tion is now owned in England and has
produced $20,000,000 in gold. After Jim
’Whitlatch had sold the property for
$1,500,000 he went to New York “to
make as much money as Vanderbilt.”
He was a rare treat to Wall street, which
fattened on him, and in one year let him
go with only the clothes on his back.
He returned to Montana, began “pros-
pecting” again and discovered a mine
for which he got $250,000. He went to .
Chicago to rival Mr. Potter Palmer in
wealth and returned just as he did from
New York—“flat strapped,” as he would
have expressed it. He made still an-
other fortune and went to San Francisco,
where he died a poor man.
Another Lewis and Clarke county
mine—the Drum Lummon—provides an-
other such story. It was discovered by
an Irish immigrant named Thomas
Cruse. Although he owned it, he could
not get a sack of flour on credit. He
sold it to an English syndicate for
$1,500,000. But he remains one of the
wealthy men of Helena.—Julian Ralph
in Harper’s.
Soapsuds Are Valuable.
Few persons know how very useful
soapsuds prove when employed as ma-
nure. Applied to the roots of vines,
fruit trees, roses, etc., they impart a
vigor and rapidity of growth which is
perfectly surprising. No one who is so
lucky as to have a garden should waste
this valuable form of manure. It is an
excellent plan to have a large tub, and
put the soapsuds and dirty water into it
till required upon the garden.—Phila-
delphia Ledger.
Call and Make Appointments.
As my time is usually engaged ahead it
will be best for those desiring my servi-
ces to call and get teeth examined and
make appointments when to begin the
work. No fee for examination and esti-
mating cost. M. O. Perkins.
If all the rain that annually falls on
the roofs of buildings in Galveston were
preserved and held for use, there would
be an abundance of rainwater for all
steam and other purposes, if what was
wanted for fire engines were secured
through the medium of shallow wells.
If it became necessity to increase the
supply, rainsheds and huge cisterns
could be constructed. This is a hint
not a threat.
The morning paper says: “There is
no reason why the grand jury should
not find an indictment against a mur-
derer in ten minutes after the smoking
pistol is taken from his hand. There is
no reason in most cases why he should
not be tried and sentenced to hang on
the first Friday after the abrupt depart-
ure of his last victim.” Well, that is
just what Judge Lynch has been trying
io instil into the minds of his subjects
iiom the beginning.
The Houston Press says: “A mam-
moth ten story high wheat elevator has
just been completed at Galveston by J.
C. Stewart & Co., builders of Chicago,
by which four ships can be unloaded at
one time, while forty cars can be un-
loaded. This shows clearly which way
the wind is blowing. Galveston’s wharf
company has surely scored a victory this
time.” Galveston has been scoring
victories so long they have become a sort
of second nature, as it were.
Spaniards as Shoplifters.
Spaniards are now said to be most
predominant among the criminals ar-
rested for stealing in large shops or
pocket picking on race courses or at
great public gatherings. Several Ibe-
rians have been caught purse snatching
at the Gingerbread fair, and there have
just appeared before the police court
two men and two women from over ths
Pyrenees who practiced shoplifting on
a large scale. The Spaniards, who had
been suspected of pocket picking in the
Jardin d’Acclimatation, were dogged by
a detective, who saw them enter the
Grands Magasins du Louvre. They
drove to the place in a hired victoria,
the jehu of which was one of the men.
After having remained for awhile in the
shop they saw that they were being
watched, so they left the place, entered
their vehicle and were conveyed to the
Printemps.
Thither the detective followed them,
and although he had no ocular proof
that the Spaniards stole anything he ar-
rested the lot, the driver of the victoria
being seized by a policeman who had re-
ceived instructions to observe his move-
ments. Under the cushions of the ve-
hicle were found three large pieces of
silk which had been stolen from the
Louvre shops and were valued at a little
over forty pounds.—London Telegraph.
A Hero of the Future.
History records the unselfish deeds
and the bravery of our soldiers in time
of danger, and future history will record
the bravery of our workmen who earn
their daily bread amid great danger and
imminent peril. An inquest was held
last wTeek by Mr. Brighouse, county cor-
oner at Parr, near St. Helens, on a man
named Richard Gill, aged fifty years,
About a year and a half ago he was
working in the shaft of a coal mine with
three other men, blasting rock. The de-
ceased, after the shots were ready, told
the other men to get into the hopper.
He then lighted the fuse connected
with the shots and then got into the
hopper. He fancied he had given the
wrong signal and jumped Qut of the
hopper to cut off the fuse. Ix^Lnanaged
to cut off one, but the others were too
far burned. The other men begged him
to give the signal to ascend and get into
the hopper, but he said: “No, 1 will stay
where I am. It is better for one man
to die than for all.” Just then the hop-
per began to ascend and the other men
were drawn to the top, and soon after
Gill pulled the signal wire and they
went down to him and found him bad-
ly injured about the head. He had a
compound fracture of the skull, and re-
mained five months in the hospital, but
never got over his injury.—London
Lancet.
The First False Hair.
In very early days, as now, the hair
was sometimes thin and it had to be
eked out in various ways to make be-
lieve that nature had been spendthrift
to all alike. About the first description
extant of woman’s hair speaks of “plaited
locks,” known as “Gretchen braids” to
us. To make these braids seem longer,
silk the color of the hair was braided in.
Then they they took to putting the
braids in cases of silk, elongating them
with all sorts of stuff till they looked
like umbrellas in covers. The Chinese
pigtail is a modification of this style.—
Washington Star,
Compulsory Insurance in uenuany.
In Germany the law of compulsory
insurance against old age and infirmity,
passed in June, 1889, completes the pro-
gramme of legislation for improving the
condition of the working classes which
was set forth in the imperial rescript of
1881. It affects more than 13,009,000
people, giving them an inalienable legal
claim to support in cases of infirmity
and in old age.
The insurance is compulsory in all in-
dustrial occupations upon persons over
sixteen years of age of both sexes.
Clerks and tradesmen’s apprentices who
do not earn more than $500 a year also
participate, but assistants and appren-
tices in druggists’ shops are excluded.
Exemption from compulsory insurance
is granted to persons who work for
food, clothes and lodging only, and who
receive no pay, or who are only in tem-
porary employment.
The pension for old age varies from
about twenty-five dollars to fifty dollars
a year, and is granted to every insured
person who has completed his seventieth
year, irrespective of his ability to earn a
livelihood, provided he does not already
draw a pension for infirmity. The in-
firmity pension varies from about twen-
ty-seven dollars to over a hundred dol-
lars, and is given, irrespective of age, to
persons who are permanently incapaci-
tated from earning a living.
In order to establish a claim to a pen-
sion under the German law, contribu-
tions, regulated by the amount of earn-
ings, must be paid for a prescribed
period. The means of paying pensions
are obtained by fixed contributions from
the imperial treasury, added to regular
payments on the part of the employers
and employed.—Youth’s Companion.
Too Heavy to Go Down.
A corespondent sends the following
tough story from Lancaster, which we
don’t believe: “Several days ago Walter
O. Hardy noticed that a lot of tenpenny
nails he had in a shed were disappear-
ing, and he yesterday discovered that
about three pounds of the nails had been
carried to an elevated place by one of
his pigeons and used in building a nest. ”

A Practical Talk Tliat Should Interest
Thoughtful Parents—What a Boy May
Expect in Work and Wages—Details of
the Apprenticeship.
Matthew Barr is the walking dele-
gate of the Tin and Sheet Iron Workers’
union, and worked for many years as a
tinsmith in a shop and in business for
himself. “The tinsmith trade,” said
Mr. Barr to a reporter, “is split into sev-
eral branches, and to be able to do all
kinds of work in tin and sheet iron re-
quires considerable time spent in each
department. Sheet iron -work, as it is
understood in this city, is carried on in
what are known as ‘furnace shops,’
while the manufacture of tin goods is
restricted to what are called ‘assortment
shops.’ Apart from these there are the
cornice makers and slate and metal
roofers, which are included among the
branches that tinsmiths must know to
round out their knowledge.
“The best age for a boy to begin the
tinsmith trade is about sixteen. He
ought to have picked up sufficient edu-
cation from the common schools at this
age to give him a fair start in life. No
boy is bound out as an apprentice to a
tinsmith in this country, but beginners
are not looked upon as full fledged
journeymen until they reach the age of
manhood, no matter how proficient they
may be. In some shops a boy has very
little show, because there is a system of
employment which practically excludes
him.
“This is the result of a surplus of labor
in other countries. Tinsmiths land here
from other lands with but little knowl-
edge of what the trade requires here,
but with a general knowledge of the
business and the use of tools. They ap-
ply for work in shops and they are taken
on in preference to the native born boys
who desire to learn the trade. These
foreign mechanics can learn quicker
than a boy generally, and while they are
hired for low wages, they in a short
time are able to do almost as much work
as an expert tinsmith. This system is
against the American boy, but so long
as there is money in it for the bosses it
will be kept up.
“This trade is not such a laborious
one that it requires an unusual amount
of strength. A tinsmith need not be as
strong as a carpenter, blacksmith or
bricklayer, but he must have plenty of
endurance. He ought to be versatile
intellectually, because he is not a mere
machine, but is often required to make
entirely new things, which can only be
done with a fair degree of inventive
skill, besides an expert knowledge of
the use of tools.
“A boy will never become a good tin-
smith if he is not obedient and patient.
He will have to do some simple thing
over so many times that life will be-
come very weary in the shop before he
is set to work upon something that ap-
pears to be important to him. In the
assortment shops a boy will first be
He will
will drop off. He will receive about
three dollars a week on the start.
“The foreman watches the boy care-
fully, and if he does not take hold of the
shears and other tools handily in a
few days, he will probably remind
him that he has made a mistake in his
calling. Some boys are put at this and
other trades by their parents who would
make good clerks and salesmen, but
never will be good mechanics. To ac-
custom the boy to the use of the mallet
and hammer, he is kept straightening
old pipe. When he knows a little about
tools and shows the proper spirit in
doing his work, he is sent to the jour-
neyman’s bench to hold things for him,
and in this way gets an idea of the prac-
tical use of tools. He may be kept at
this for a long time, and this is the
period that will test his patience.
“It is always a red letter day for the
beginner when the foreman gives him a
piece of metal and tells him to make a
drinking cup. He has seen it done many
times, but when he comes to cutting out
the tin and getting it into shape his fin-
gers seem to be all thumbs. He wants
to make a good cup, but his anxiety will
knock it out of shape. When it is all
brightly polished it is taken to the fore-
man for inspection. Nine times out of
ten the beginner is told to take it home
as a memento. He feels very happy,
but he would not think so much of his
work if he knew that the real reason
that it was not taken by the foreman
was that it could not be sold.
“The boy will soon find this out when
the foreman keeps him making cups un-
til he gets a perfect one. From a cup
he goes to other things of minor impor-
tance, which he is kept at until he grad-
ually acquires skill. It depends upon
the boy himself how much time he will
waste before he becomes an expert. If
he is civil and obliging the journeymen
will teach him pattern drawing, and in
this way the boy will learn how to block
out the models of every kind of work
and cut out patterns for himself.
“During the last thirty years there
have been many changes, in the tin-
smith’s trade. Machinery has taken the
place of hand labor in the manufacture
of nearly all utensils, but this has made
no change in the tinsmith’s condition.
Organized labor has protected the work-
man. The principal machines in the as-
sortment shops are presses giving the
general outlines of manufactured goods,
and lathes, which are used to perfect
the lines of spinning. An important
fact in the trade is the wheeling ma-
chine, which gives the bright polish and
puts on the finishing touches. The pol-
ishing used to be done by hammers on
an anvil, but the wheeling machine can
do better and more work. During the
five years that a boy ought to spend in
learning this trade he ought to become
expert in the use of all the machinery,
if he has had the proper instruction. A
boy will learn the trade better in a shop
than in a trade school.”—New York Re-
corder.
Philadelphia Pretzels.
Philadelphia pretzels are a thing by
themselves; that is, the genuine Phila-
delphia pretzel is, but unscrupulous
manufacturers have been making imi-
tations with machinery which have
served to lessen the high standard raised
by the reputation of the homemade
pretzel. The pretzel came over with
the Dutch, and it is still found in its
original purity in Lancaster and Berks
counties, the inhabitants of which have
been so many generations in this coun-
try that they are unable to speak their
mother tongue. They have not been
here long enough to learn English, so
they make their pretzels as they were
taught, and talk the language which
they have manufactured.—New York
Sun.
English Reporters Must Be Educated.
There are to be no ignoramuses in the
English journalism of the future. A
special committee of the institute of the
profession has prepared a report in
which it is recommended that candidates
for admission to membership must pass
an examination in the English language,
English literature, English constitution
and political history, political and physi-
cal geography. They must also have a
“sufficient knowledge” of Latin, either
French and German, and “some ac-
quaintance” with universal history.
But perpaps the most important rec-
ommendation of all is that every candi-
date shall be examined in “The Princi-
ples of the Law of Newspaper Libel.”
This is certainly a poser, and any jour-
nalist who succeeds in showing that he
has mastered the law of libel will be
well worthy of all the honors which his
colleagues can bestow.—Pall Mall Bud-
get.
Mr. Weslosky’s Aristocratic Hen.
At the farm of Mr. Maurice Weslosky,
of Albany, a Plymouth Rock hen had
been set on sixteen eggs—thirteen of
which were Plymouth Rock eggs and
the other three eggs of a common breed
of chickens. The motherly old hen
hatched out the whole sixteen, but when
they were all able to run about accord-
ing to her clucking she seemed to eye
the three little aliens suspiciously. That
Biddy disapproved the mixture of the
breed was at once evinced by the scorn-
ful manner assumed, and soon she
showed it in an emphatic way by falling
viciously on the three strangers and
putting a sudden and violent end to
their young lives.—Cor. Atlanta Con-
stitution.
How Opium Is Gathered.
It is a sort of garden cultivation, the
poppy plants being grown in little
squares or beds intersected by tiny wa-
ter channels for irrigation wherever this
is possible. The growth of the plants is
carefully tended, and at length the time
comes when they burst out into flower,
and the fields look like a sheet of silver
as the white petals of the flowers glisten
in the morning dew.
These beautiful petals are the first
produce of the crop, for the women and
children of the cultivators’ families
come forth and pick them off one by
one and carefully dry them, so that they
may serve afterward as the covering of
the manufactured cakes of opium. Then
the poppies, with their bare capsule
heads, remain standing in the open
field until it is considered that they are
ripe for lancing. The cultivators then
come forth in the evening, and, with an
implement not unlike the knives of a
cupping instrument, they scarify the
capsule on its sides with deep incisions,
so that the juice may exude.
In the early morning the cultivators
reappear with a scraping knife and their
earthenware pots, and they scrape off
the exuded juice and collect it in their
pots. And this is crude opium.—Black-
wood’s Magazine.
