The Heroes of Young Writers Money Spent Tor Show The Beauty of Chinese Wit. Bevanteen years ago I lived with my father and mother on the banks of the Stranger river, in Atchison connty, Kan-- - tag. I was only 7 years of age, and one 4ay my youthful fancy was caught by tho pretty colors of a blacksnake. I pulled a small ring off my finger and a tring out of my pocket. Placing the ring over the head of the snake, I started home in triumph, dragging the snake at my heels, and feeling as much a con-queror as the Roman emperor who dragged the captives behind his char-iots. In climbing over a fonce my cap-tive made its escape. Ring, string, everything disappeared. I shed a few tears at the time, but had forgotten the matter until lately. I re-turned to the vicinity of my old home In Atchison county for the purpose of buying some sheep. While crossing a email crock that flows into the Stranger river my attention was called by the barking of my dog to a strange some-thing in a tree. I investigated and found there an immense blacksnake, fully ten feet long. Between the dog and myself we succeeded in killing the snake, though I was obliged to use in . the warfaro both a club and a revolver. Tho dog finished the snake by giving it a shaking and tearing it i pieces. You will hardly believe me, I know, but yon can have my head if it wasn't the same identical snake that got away from me seventeen years ago. How di I know? Simple enough. That little blacksnake had grown to be a monstrous big one; the little silver ring around its neck had grown until it was as large as a lady's bracelet, and the piece of twine had grown until it had become a good sized rope. But the strangest part of all was that the dog had shaken out seven-teen little blacksnakes, and that each one was the exact counterpart of the snake that made its escape from me in the long ago, while around the necks of each of the seventeen young ones were silver rings, aud attached to those rings were short pieces of twine. And upon each one of these silver rings you could plain-ly distinguish the initials of my name, just as thoy had been stamped in the sil-ver ring that I wore when 7 years old. .Kansas City Times. Had Her Rvnire. A woman carrying a faded carpet bag stopped a policeman in Chicago and said: "Which way must I go to tho World's fairr "Iloadquarters of the directors are around on Dearborn street."' "I don't caro a snap for tho headquar-ters. I want to know whar the fair is whar they are showin' things." "There isn't any such place, madsm. The fair won't be opened for throe years yet." "What, ain't thar no show atall?" "Not yet." "Didn't I see in the papers that con-gress had sent the fair to this town?" "You may have read that this place lias been selected as the site of a fair to 'lie hold three years from now." "An' thar won't be none till then?" "Not that anybody knows of." "An' congress has fooled mo into com-i- n' all the way from Missoury to see that fair. Look here, this thing is a fraud, an' I believe you had something to do with it. Do you hear me?" "Yes, I hoar you." "Well, what have yon got to say for yourself?" "Nothing." "Then you acknowledge that you are a fraud, do you?" "I suppose I am." "An you are not sorry for it, nuther, I reckon." "No, I am not particularly cast down " "Wall, will yon do me a favor, jest to sorter make things squarT' "I will try to." "All right. Then hold this carpet bag till I step right over yander an' eat a snack." "Why don't you take it with you?" "Peered somebody mout steal it while I'm eatin'. Will you hold it?' "Yes, I'll take charge of it for you." Whon the woman had been gono lial f an hour the policeman began to feel un-easy. Au hour passed and still the worn an did not return. Late that evening the carpet bag was opened. It contained fonr dead cats, together with the follow-ing note: "These cats lay in au alley next to my house, on the west side, for four days. I have time and again notified the author-ities, but as no notice was taken of rny appeal I have taken this method of of them. Yon may return them to me when we meet at the World's fair. " Arkansaw Traveller. The Heroines of V'oung Writers. A woman with a turn for literary work who notices that she is distanced, t as far as success and admiration goes, by rivals inferior in mental capacity to hersolf , flies eagerly to the society of her own fancies and makes her pen her greatest friend. It is the lot of many , girls to pass their childhood or yonth in a somewhat monotonous round of do-mestic duties, and frequently in a narrow domestio circle with which they may have no great intellectual sympathy. It is a delightful consola-tion for the shortcomings of the social life around them to build up an imagin-ary picture of social life as it might ba full of romantic adventures and pleas-ant conquests. In manufacturing her heroine the young recluse puts on paper what she would herself like to be, and what she thinks she might be if only she had golden hair and a wider sphere of action, or if men were wiser and more discerning. In the slights offered to her favorite ideal she paints the slights that might be or have been offered to herself, and she glories in imagining the triumphant way in which (under more auspicious circumstances) she would turn upon her enemies and trample them under foot. The vexations and annoyances she is usually able to describe with spirit and accuracy. The triumph, being the rep-resentation of her own delicious dreams, is apt to be a little too spectacular; it is , too complete; rivals and enemies are too effectually crushed; the world looks on and applauds with rather unnecessary vehemence; the underrated martyr of the first portion of the book has somewhat too magnificent an apotheosis at its close.

Twenty-fiv- e thousand peojilo ride there Bimply to wait on the rich, to minister to the luxury of the opulent Ten thou-sand of these people are lackeys. The gorgeous and impressive uniforms tall hats, rosettes, top boots, buttons of the coachmen and lackeys are furnished by the owners of tho carriages. They buy uniforms for the coachmen aud lackeys just as they buy harness for the horses, and the cost is about the same. The uniforms cost about $150 por carriage. For the 5,000 more modest turnouts, with a plain, old fashioned coachmau, 'the uniform costs about $30. It costs $1,500,000 to make the coach-men and line lackeys look like monkeys. It oosts $150,000 more to dress up the old fashioned coachmen. The aggregate is $l,650,0Oa-N- ew York Journal. INDUSTRIAL ITEMS. The Christian Socialists have recently organized a branch in Chicago. Rev, Dr. Bliss, of Boston, is very actively en-gaged in this work. As the Cltristian Socialists are striving to bring about more just social aud industrial relations than at present exist, the laborer is in-terested in their progress. Where the carpenters have won un-conditionally in the reoent strike tho now scale provides that overtime shall be paid for nt the rate of time and one-ha-lf and Sunday work as doublo time The latest issue of The Carpenter re-ports the following as the results of the May struggles in the carpentering trado: Eight hour day secured in twenty-seve- n citios and towns; the nine hour day in soventy-tw- o cities and towns; increased wages iu eighteen. A recapitulation shows victories in 117 towns aud cities, with 40,197 workmen benefited. It seems that the organized workers of England are divided in their opinions on tho advisability of adopting the eight hour bill which was introduced in parlia-ment. The Philadelphia and Reading Rail-road company is true to its rocord. Its latest move was to order all conductors to leave tho Brotherhood or theoad. This action was taken because the Broth-erhood at its recent convention repealed the anti-strik- e clause of its constitution. There are indications of another strike soon by the street car men of Chicago. Tho men don't like tho methods of jtr. Yerkes auy better than they did two years ago. The Unitod German Trades of New York have adopted a resolution to punish all members of nfliliated unions who patronize grocers selling "scab" bread. Reports from San Francisco to Gen-eral Secretary August Delabar show that the bakery established by the union in that city is a thorough suc-cess. Report indicate that the workingmeu of St. Louis re more stirred up over the need of organization than ever bsfore, ai.J unions are mul flying rapidly. The competition of Russian and Polish Hebrews in New York has reduced the pay of shirtuiuking from $i to 73 cents a dozen. j Chlneaa Wit. A traveler in the far east relates thp.t Chinese gentlemen of quality consider it btineath their dignity to invent their own jokes. When they go into mxnety each carries with him a collection of bon mots and smart repartees, obtained from various sources, and when he thinks the time has come for him to make a sage remark ha turns over the leaves of his commonplace book till he lighta on a suitable passage, which he gravely points out to his neighbor. The Ktter reads the passsage with equal gravity, whereupon he selects from his own stock an appro-priate rejoiader, which he shows the other with a bow. Both then Btnile sol-- , emnly, and, after many compliments, re-sume their conversation. II Popolo Ro-mano. Do Wasn't Taking- - Any Risks. Rev. Primrose What, a fiuhpole!
