Smith, the porter, was aft work in
alley behind the establishment of
kins, Son & Co. He was a big,
hurley fellow, with a bullet head set
strongly on his shoulders. He whirled
heavy packages end over end and
flung them on the dray as if they were

In the office at the back of the store
sat Mr. Hoskins. His back was tow-
ards the window that looked out on
ilhe alley. A man was standing talk-
ing to him, when suddenly he seemed to
tuotioe Smith. Then he stopped talking
and stared,
••What's the matter/1 asked Hos-
fttins.
"Who's that loading the boxes on

Hoskins wheeled round on his revolv-
ing chair and looked out. "That?

"All the same, he's Truber. Was
let out of stated prison less than a year
ago. Served three years, I believe.
I'd investigate if I were you.
When the man left, Hoskins sat for
a few moments looking out the alley
window. Then he called to one of the
store boys and said:
**Ask Smith to coijie here, will you."
Smith came in, J.ooking embarrassed
aft the unu&al calk
"Just close tlje door," said Hoskins.
Smith close** the door.
••See here* my man, is Smith your
name?"
The ma^i looked up quickly at Hos-
kins, tl ,en replied sullenly:
"Ai n't Smith as good as any other
na^ne?*'
••Yes, if it is your own. Is itPM
r "8a, it ain't"
••What is your name, then?'
"It's nobody's business as long as I do
my work.1'
••It's my business. I'll make it my
business^ I don't want any of your
insolence. What's your name?'1
Smith did not answer.
• "See here, my man, you'vo got to be
^careful or I'll give you up to the
police."
"What for?"
"You know very well what for.*'
"No, I don't. What for?"
"Because you*re a burglar. Do you
deny it?"
•*Of course I deny it I was a burg-
lar. I've served my time. I'vo done
no harm since. I've worked hard
«?
enough for what you give me." *
••Well, you can't work any longer
tor me. Call at the window and get
your pay."
Smith did not move.
••You heard what I said. Get out of
here. You may thank your stars I
don't hand you over to the police."
••You've nothing to liauil mo over
for and you know it, or you'd do it
quick enough. I've got to eat like
other men. Who gave me away?"
•That don't matter. The clerk will
give you what's comiug to you."
•'See here, if I got anothor job you
Won't give mo away will youP"
"I don't wish to have any further
conversation with you: Next place you
get don't get it under false pretenses;
you'll tinil honesty the best policy."
The burglar drew his pay and start-
ed huuting another job. He tried hon-
estly for a while, but found that a
good record in state's prison was not
necessarily a good business recom-
mendation. He doubted the policy and
dropped it.
At, last lie got a place in the hard-
ware house of Irons & Co. All went
well for a week.until one day ho came
on Irons and Hoskins together. He
was not kopt a moment in suspense.
••That man in your employ?" asked
Hoskins. "I snpposo lie told you ho
was a jail bird?"
•<iood gracious, no!" exclaimed
Irons. "Is that true. Jones?"
•Oh, he's Jones now, is lie?" Hos-
kins went on. ••Ho was Smith at my
place. His real name is Bill something,
burglar, late of state's prison."
One night a week Mr. Ezra Hosk ins
was in the habit of staying late at his
office. Hoskins.will never again be so
near death's door until ho finally on-
ters therein as he was the next night
he stayed in his office.
The burglar was concealed within
ten feet of him but murder and not
robbery was his object that night
Hts only regret was that he would have
to kill Hoskins so quickly and silently
that the merchant would never know
wbat struck him and into his
bullet head there came the thought
after all the tevenge would be incom-
plete if the victim did not know of it.
The merchant took out of a safe a
little leather hand satchel whose con-
tents should have been in the bank
that night but which had been just
too late to get there. Hoskins always
after bemoaned this fact, but then he
never seemed to realize that the con-
tents of that little satchel was the
price he paid for his life.
Seeing that the door was locked and
the blinds secure, Hoskins opened the
little satchel with a key from the safe
and the next moment the iron hand of
the burglar was around his throat
One yell would have brought him
help, for a passing policeman tried the
front door while the burglar closed his
bnt the yell could not be uttered,
burglar gagged him with an old
eerchief thrust between h!s teeth
tied in a villainously hard knot
id his head. Then he leisurely
id up the respectable merchant like
of gobds-
i picked ont the bundles of bills
the satchel and for a moment
puzzled where to put them,
had not as many pockets
ry and he evidently
terior of the store and the merchant
groaned to think that if he conld get
that cash in the safe and lock it or if
he could bnt reach tljo telephone just
above him; everytliiug would have
been all right
Perhaps it would and perhaps it
wouldn't Hopkins if as not accustom-
ed to the ways of disappointed burg-
lars. When his enemy returned Hop-
kins* heart gave a momentary jump of
delight He thought help had comet
but it was only Bill rigged out in a new
suit with a fine overcoat on. He
stowed away the money, put the loose
silver and gold in his trousers pooket
and then turned to his old master.
•'I meant to have killed you," he
said, **nd perhaps I ought to yet but
I guess you'll be about as sorry to. lose
all this money as most any other man
would be to lose his life. You'll be
here all safe enough till half-past 8 to-
morrow morning. You'H try your best
to find me, but I'll have a good start of
you and wish you luck. Next time a
poor devil tries to earn an honest livin*

Snake and Stag.
Mr. Barras, in one of his ti^er-shoot
ing expeditions in India, had a singu-
lar adventure with a serpent which
some of his men found in the aot of
swallowing a stag. The front part of
the reptilo was tremendously distend-
od, so that it looked exactly like a small
beer barrel with a long tail On a
nearer inspection, its head could be
seen projecting from the thick end,
with the hind feet of the deer sticking
out of one corner of its mouth.
We could not shoot the monster for
fear of disturbing the tiger of which
we were in pursuit. We therefore
commanded one of the natives to go
and cut off its head* But none of
them seemed inclined to obey. The
more we reiterated our orders, the
more seriously tiiey wagged their tur-
baned head, and the more they seem-
ed glued to their respective elephants.
At last tho veteran Seesoo raised his
voice, and thus expressed the sense of
the company:
"O my lords, I am indeed the slave
of your highnesses, and were the crea-
ture before us only a tiger, bear, or
indeed any four-footed beast I would
at once advance to the combat; but
this is an awful brute, and the most
baleful of the inhabitants oi the jungle.
If anyone goes witiiin reach of his
tail, he w ll bo killed to a certainty."
In short, our nativo assistants meant
to keep clear of tho huge reptile,
which they probably mistook for a god
or a devil, on no account to bo inter-
fered with. So, as my friend assured
me that theso snakes were not danger-
ous, I descended from my elephant,
and proceeded against it with a heavy
hunting-knife
I confess to somo misgivings
whether his or tho native's estimate
of the beast's character might prove
correct. What more likely than it
should throw a fold of its body round
any ono approaching within rangeP
for behind the intlaled portion contain-
ing the deer there must have been
about thirteen foot of the serpent in
its normal state.
However, I advanced, knife in hand,
on a lino leading straight to the head
o o
of the reptilo, and watched narrowly
for any sign of its moving; but it re-
mained motionless as I stood over it
and looked upon its weird counte-
nance, capable of but one fixed ex-
pression.
All its,life seemed concentrated in
the bright yellow eyes that returned
my gaze with a glittering stare. I
raised the knife, and brought down
with all my might on its neck, think-
ing to cut its head oft'. But the bones
were solid, and nothing but a horrible
gash was the result.
Even at this not a musclo stirred,
and the eyes glittered and looked
piercing*as before. I was now advised
to dispatch him by severing the spine
just behind the great enlargement
caused by the body of the stag. But
the snake instantly lashed'out so vig-
or c*lriv that i thought it prudent to
return to the head, and with a few
more blows I killed it Its leugth was
just seventeen feet.
The stag, on being taken out look-
ed as if it had been neatly trussed for
the table. It was about tho s:ze of
on ordinary sheep, and its head, neck
and limbs were packed into a sort of
square, but none of he bones were
broken, nor were thero any signs of
external damage. The poor thing was
quite dead, and we abandoned the two
bodies to the vultures and jackals.—

DETACHED THOUGHTS.
Mediocrity is the dry root that para-
lyses progress.
Pleasure in work is tho mere delirium
bf rhapsodists.
The cant of politics is scarcely less
reprehensible than its corruptions.
Pleasure ie the pursuit of pleqnsve,
and all selfish achievement is a delu.
von.
The man whose rule of life is policy
never knows the glow or the glory of
honest enthusiasm.
What is a painted picture? A daub
of vari-colored mud—a libel on nature
—the sheet-iron thunder of the stage.
It is not quite possible for me to run
away from the conviction thai there is
a lot of cant in thanking God for afflic-
tions.
1 never knew a man to be lifted out
of a groveling condition by marriage
with a woman whom he knew to be his
superior.
Vice which parades in the panoply of
Virtue is honored and applauded when
ill-clad Virtue herself is contemptuously
hooted by Pharisees.
I have many times observed the supe-
rior tact with which woman adapts
herself to her environment. Indeed her
impulse in that direction is instinctive.
The Creator endowed birds with a
knowledge of the time to migrate. I
assume that the creation theory is
equally applicable to woman as explan-
atory of her natural desire to fly from
base surroundings.
The worshiped idols of the sta^e are
incarnate commonplaces. Their ut-
most achievements are incvitablv and
grotesquely dwarfed when brought
face to face with the ideals that the
meanest of us recognize.
The debased man holds all refine-
ments in contempt. He takes as kindly
io rags as to royal raiment. A bath
gives him moral hydrophobia. He
does not even care to hide his sores un-
der a garment of politeness.
Debasement is unnatural to woman.
The outcast is, perhaps, reckless of her
good fame lost; but it is only in the last
stage of woman's descent into the so-
cial hell that she becomes indifferent to
those refinements that make her sex at-
tractive.
Reputations for profound thought are
sometimes gained by intellectual confi-
dence men. The checks they give on
the bank of brains show big figures on
their face, but they do not yield the
coin. The profoundest thought has no
dubious meaning.
Stanley18 Last Chat
Col. Col horno, formerly attached to
Hicks Pasha's staff, gives an intere3t-
>ng account of an interview he had
with Mr. Stanley an hour before lie
left Shephoard's hotel, at Cairo, to
commence his long journey. Iu the
course of conversation Stanley said:
••Do you know that the Nile itself
could be turned off with comparative
easo? The Victoria Nyanza is on a
plateau liko an inverted basin. It
20uld be made to trickle over at any
point The present King of Uganda
is fond of his liquor; waking up any
morning after drinking too much
•mwengi' (plantain wine) overnight
he might have what is called *a head
on him' and feol in a very bad temper.
He might then take it into his head to
turn off the Nile; he might do this by
ordering a thousand or so natives to
turn out and contiuue to drop stones
across the Ripon Falls at the top till
they were blocked. To do this would
be quite possible. I calculate thia
could be done by the number of men I
mention in nine months, for the falls
are very narrow. True, the eftect of
this could be counteracted in a year or
bo by reservoirs and dikes; but mean-
while the population of Egypt would
be starved. His fatiior. King, Mtesa,
once actually contemplated doing this,
not with a view of creating mischief,
but because he wanted to water some
particular tract of land, and for this
purpose to make the lake dribble over

Again lighting the stump of his
oigar, he now conversed about his pro-
bable route aud the time he would
most likely take to reach Emin. His
faithful attendant at last entered, and
began to strap up the portmanteau
and bag, a sign that the time for de-
parture was at hand. 4Tell them,'*
laid Stanley, as I wished him every
success and we shook hands^ "tell
them at home that my mission is pure-
ly pacific." I forgot to mention that
be especially told me that perhaps the
world might not hear anything of
him for months. "Let people remem-
ber that if I go by the route I now in-
tend I shall have to traverse a tract of
sountry utterly unknown"—he pointed
it out to me on his map—" and it must
aot be supposed that I am lost because
1 am unable to communicate with the
outer world"—the same words that
Hicks Pasha used when he started on
bis second and ill-starred campaign.—

Log: Cabin Logic.
Brawn and Braint
The powerful engine, with its won*
derful propelling power, coupled to the
long train full freighted with the rich-
est fabrics of the intellectual looms of
the centuries—what obstacles can stay
the progress of this mighty force,
when once under full steam along
life's highway?
The American with brawn and brain
does not see the necessity for titles of
nobility, does not care for elevation by
descent, he can reach out and pluck
the stars.
But with brawn or brain impaired, a
man is badly handicapped in the mad
race for success which is the marked
characteristic of the present age.
The physical system is a most intri-
cate piece of machinery. It ought to
be kept well regulated, so that it will
work harmoniously in all its parts, then
it is capable of an immense amount of
work.
It is said that a watch, if expected to
keep perfect time, must be wound
laily. It will not keep good time un-
less it "runs regular." Men break
town because they don't "run regular"
than for any other reason.
Ift is claimed by physicians that few
men are killed by hard work. It is to
the irregularities of modern social life'
that the high death rate is due. Men
burn their candle aft bofth ends, then
wonder why it burns ont so quickly.
The main thing in keeping the human
machine in good working order is to
keep the regulator all right. "The
blood is the life,'* and sound health is
assured so long as the blood flows
through the veins a limpid stream of
purity.

•fThe soldier is a man, not a tttüs-

man's speech aft the Seventh Regiment
linner on Saturday is one of those
ohrases which a man of genius like
Sherman now and then throws into
history. It tells the difference between
our war and modern wars. Our sol
diers were men, with ideas in their
cartridge boxes. Like men they
fonght, and like men made their vic-
tory honorable. And it was because
there were men, not muskets, both in
the north and south that the whole
military system melted away like the
baseless fabric of a Vision. There
were no remaining Hessians among the
victorious to inspire vulgar deeds of
ambitious usurpation. There were no
foolish guerillas among the conquored
to become bandits and mountain or
swamp rebels. The war was over and
