"They are varioua, of coune, and rlfpond a

risit the free lunch place every inornln? with
a supply of sausage, twlona, beef, bunea and

Much lunches are furoinhod at a very
triflins outlay. But many of the low clas
of xaloons uruo an entirely different
method of procuring material for their
lunch table. They havt a special arrange
ment with certain eating houses and hotels
by which they obtain the offscourings of the
tables, and the scraps and remnants from
the kitchens, such as would b- thrown away
if not thus utilized. This stuff cost little or
nothing, and the safooniet is euabind to
spread a decent looking lunch, incliMiiig hot
soup, to the surprise and delight of his cus
tomers, who wonder how he can afford it.
If they could see how it is prepared, they
would not only cease to wonder, but in all
prolaibility would lose their uppetites every
time they looked at it."
"Are not tiiese saloon-keepers annoyed a
great deal by ravenous bums who attack
their luncbekf"
"Yes, they have the professional lunch
fiends to deal with. The free-lunch saloon is
the bum's paradise and the impecunious
man's hope. But it doesn't take long for a
sharp "bar-tender to spot the man who spends
a nickel and devours a quarter's worth of
grub. Notning is said to him the first time,
lut a rejietition of the offense is pretty cer
tain to call forth a polite but firm invitation
to make himself scarce in that hou.e, and to
remain away in future. Why, there are
men in this town who sulaLst in
traveling ' the free lunch routes,
never paying a cent for wuat
they eat All they spend is the necessary
nickel for a glass of beer, without which they
cannot consider themselves a welcome guest
at the bamiuct. Nevertheless, when the
saloon is crowded, there are always a few
slick ones who sneak their grub without buy
ing any been, and are not detected There is
iiauy a well-aressed clerk in Chicago who
i lakes a practice of lunching on saloon fare,
lie Itelons to the poorly paid class of counter-jumpers,
and with 5 cents siut for beei
or a bottle of op he secures uil he wants tt
eut, such as it is.
"But such customers aro not profitable f
"No; but they dress well, and look like
millionaires, you know, and the shrewd pro
prietor has an idea that their presence in his
saloon lends an air of dignity to the place and
helps to attract trade. He makes it up off of
another class of customers. Regular boor
guzzlers are never satisfied with one glass,
and if they are attracted to the place by the
lunch, they spend the amount that a good
meal would cost for beer. It is usually the
case, too, that the more a man drinks the
less be eats. Pretzels are the principal fea
ture of the Dutch beer saloon lunch. They
are salty and create u thirst, which makes
them profitable. "
"How about the lunch of first-class sa
loons, such as yours?"
"They are always first-class, like the sa
loons themselves. My lunches are always
preitared under my own supervision and in
structions. You can get no better food at
the Palmer housa. We have a class of custo
mers to please who don't patronize beer
shops or even cheap restaurants, and wa
ould not afford to offer them inferior quali
fies of either liquor or lunch, in some of the
: st saloons it it the cust m to hand each
. 'istom-T a hot fried oyster on a silver fork
;uo moment lie swallows his liquor. There
ui nothing more delicious than a fried oyster
after a drink."
The saloon-keepers, however, no longer
have a mono;xly of the free lunch business
in Chicago. To offset this attraction, which
is calcu.ated to entice young men into the
pider web of intemperance, the cold water
people of the ciry are opening free lunch
rooms about town. O.ie of these is on West
Lake street, near Paulina, where any one
will be cheerfully provided with a first-class
lunch without being required to spend a soli
tary nickel, and will be treated to a temper

The National Capital a INaeeaf Hmall
Income and Mraall Outgoes).
Cor. Philadelphia Record.
There is no such thing as extravagance in
Washington that is, New York or even
Philadelphia extravagance. Washington is
a city of small incomes, small outgoes and
small economies. Some of the latter are very
funny.- There is my friend the . prosperous
lawyer, who pays a hotel nows-stand 5
cents a day for the privilege of reading all
the morning newspapers. If he takes one he
pays the newsman another nickel. There is
my friend, his wife, who always secures a de
duct iou on the medicine she buys by promis
ing to return the bottle. This lady is also
one of a number who sell their old dresses and
what not of fixings to a . shrewd old colored
aunty in a smart red and yellow bandana,
who in turn sells them "on tiuio" to well-to-
do servants.
A prosperous merchant, whom I know,
thinks nothing of paying his own far vben
he takes a party of ladies down town in the
street car and letting each of his fair coni-
imnions do the same. A street railway presi
dent, so they say, sometimes utilizes his car
riage horses on "the line," and the (resident
of a steamboat line di 1, and . I think does,
save his board by riding up and down the
Potomac on one of his steamers.
This is a town where the leaders in politics,
finance and journalism lunch on milk and
pie in a dairy, ride in 3-cent cars, drink
Vcent soda water, and patronize barbers
who shave for 10 cents, where men of all
sorts of prosperity dine for a quarter, and re
fresh their minds in the evenings at the hos
pitable newspaper correspondent's offices,
which stand open from sunset almost to sun
rise. I upiiel everybody within alv miles
of Washington knew all this until I saw that
nor Senor Barca was charged with ex
travagance. Sen or Barca would have found
great difficulty in getting the patent medicine
millionaires! of the east or the pork and lard
kings' of the west to his modest entertain
ment had be not been a representative of
royalty." He lived like a Washington gen
tlemen on bin twenty thousand a year. He
roil id not have lived as a New Yk gentle

GONE OVER.
(Jean Ingelow la Longman's Magazine.
Come hither, come hither V the broouf was la
LloMKMii all over yon rite,
There went a wile murmur of lirown bees
about it with songs from the wood;
"TTe shall never be younger: O lov ., let
forth for the worla 'neath eyes
Ay.tlie world is made young eVn u.t we. and
right fair is hor youth and right good."
Then there fell the great yearning upon toe
tliat never yet went into words.
While lonesome and moansome thereon
spake and faltered the dove to the dove,
And I came at her cailin;: "Inherit, inherit!
and sing with the birds."
I went up to the wood with the child of my
heart anil the wife of my love.
Opuro! O pathetic! Wil I hyacinth drank it,
the dream liht apace.
Not a loaf moved at ail 'neath the bluf, they
litm wuiiiun for miaj;ers kind;
Tall cliorry trees dropiaxl their white blossom
that drifted no whit from its place.
For the kouUi very far out to noa had the
iul.ing low voice of the wind.
And the child's dancing foot gave us ni t in
the mvithiiient alrnoit a jwiin;
An infinite tremor of life, a fond murmur
that cried out on time,
Ah short! must all end iu the doing and s-nd
it.self sweetly in vain,
And the promise be ouly fulfillment to lean
from the height of its prime!
"We shall never be yrnnger!" nay, mock me
not fancv, none call fi-om yon tree;
They have thrown me the world, they went
over, went up; and. alas, for my part,
I am left to grow old, and to grieve and to
chance, but they change not with me.
They will never lie older, the child of rav
love and the wife of my heart
For mankind aro one inspirit, and an instinct
bears along.
Round the earth s electric circle, the swift
flash of right or wrong;
Whether conscious or unconscious, yet Hu
manity's vast frame
Through its ocean sundered fibres fouls the
gush of joy or shame.
la the gain or loss of one race all the rest
have equal claim. Lowell.

Why Pauline Slelntyre Hank Into
the Calin, Cold Asony of Iepair.
Texas Siftings.
Pauline Mclntyre crushed a note in her
delicate, taper fingers, and with bloodless
cheeks and a weird, Btrange look in her large,
lustrous eyes, sank upon a fanteuil in the

tenderly over her daughter, "do not tike it so

"Never I" hissed the poor, stricken girl from
between her own teeth. "I have sot my life
upon a cost, and I will stand the hazard of
the die! The vile, knock-kneed dude forgive
me, mamma," sobbed Pauline, breaking com
pletely down under the terrible strain, "for
give me if I appear too harsh and rude, but,
oh I you little know what 'tis to lose your
faith iu man, to have your heart turned into

"I do foi-give you, Pauline," replied Mrs.
Mclntyre, bravely suppressing her emotions,
aud stroking her daughter's pale brow and
commercial hair, "1 do forgive you and pity
you with all my heart Do you think he had
the least reason to write you such a cold and
cruel letter F
"Not the slightest," replied Pauline,
bristling with hauty indignation. The old
blue blood of the Mclntyres was coursing in
her veins. "Have I not always treated him
with due deference f Has not his slightest
wish been law"
"You are quite sure, Pauline, that you love

Trepanned iS'tntls lu France,
Dr. Broca describes the trepanned skulls
which have been discovered in some of the
caves of France, belonging to the earlier
periods of the new stone age. He asserts, in
regard to this remarkable disclosure, that a
great number cf these skulls were trepanned
during lifetime, probably in infancy and
early youth, and that they healed
up again, the subject of the operation
surviving it for many years. The
theory is that the practice was
a sacred rite of some sort, it being found
that the skulls of those very persons who had
undergone the operation in their lifetime
were after death subjected again to the
same operations; a number of small dis s
were cut from them in such a way that e& a
disk contained a portion of the cicatr; 4
edge made by the original trepanning, U. s9
disks being used as amulets by living -t
sons, the skull thus treated being in its turn
also provided with one of these talistnaniv
disks in place of those surrendered.

part nie ut.
The county clerk has resigned as a member
Of tiki Miiford 11 ro department, of which he,
tog.-tticr with a fifty-foot book mid lad ler
truck an 1 the ex-dutnet attorney had long
been an important appurtenance. He warf
led to sever his connection with the drirb-liR-nt
by what he alhei was a piece of de
ception on the part of tho ex-district attor
ney, by which deception his usefulness and
two panels of board fence were aiiiiultano
Oiuly imiKiired, and his dignity ua a citizen,
a man, and a grandfather gn atly injured.
One night Jake Hcnorr, the stage driver,
who was returning from a lato truin at Port
J ci vis, came dashing down the ioid with his
team, and crying "Fire!" "Fire!" a.', the top
of his lungs.
Then th.-re was hurrying to nnl fro among
the boys. Tho hook aud ladder truck was
housed iu the Crissman house barn. Tho
county clerk and the ex district attorney
rushed for it at once. The former seize.
hold of it al tin rear, while tho latter handled
the tonirue, Tho night was very dark.
The truck was quickly taken out, and tli
county clerk stioutod:
"Now let her go, lx's! I'll push behind and
you handle the tonu." Then ho added to
himelf : "I'll soo how much pciie.str' iiiism
there is in that district attorney, no v, you
bet He's got to be a good un if . doa '
wind him liefore this run is over.
Away they went Tho fire wa. up town,
three-quarters if a mile away. Ik-foro they
bad gono half a block the county cleik was
clearing U-n feet of ground at every step.
"Sweet Christmas!" thought he, -what an
infernal gait them Imys have struck! If they
keep that up, the district attorney'll be dead
before be gets there, and I'll bet on it."
Bv this time the county clerk's feet barely
had lime to touch the cround at all. His hat
was gone, and he swung along behind the
truck like a kite tail iu tho wind.
"If ho nin't a runner, I'm blowe.11" ho
iaiiL "Jf they don't get to that fire blome
joon, or if he don't fall dead, I'm a gonei."
A still greater burst of hpecd on the jiart of
tho truck lifted the county clerk on his feet,
&nd ho stuck out bjlmi 1 the mar-hiue as

"Well, I've heard of good running, but if

So, when the county clerk learned tha he

THE CINCHONA TEEE.
The Experiment of Cultivating O.ol
nine About to be Undertaken.
Chicago Times.
President Barrios, of Guatemala, ha.1 made
airangemenU to try the experiment of culti
vating the cinchona tree. an. I W. J. Forsyth,
a plauter of Ceylon, who has ridden a thou
sand miles through Central America, explor
ing the country to dix-o.er the best fiite fot
ilaiitation, is now iu New York on his return
to East India to select the seed for five
million trees. Speaking on the subject. Mr.
Forsyth said: "The rapid increase in the
number of uses to which the bark of tbj
cinchona tree is put, not only for the ma.iu
facture of quinine and as an ingredient in the
substitute for bops, but for various com
morc-ial purposes, induced Piesi lent liaiios
j to try this exjierimeiit. Although the ciu
' chona tree is not a native of lu-iia, but was
introduced there in 187'J by the celebrated
botanist, Clement Markliam. at tho instance
of the British government, the culture was so
profitable that not ouly has the original in
vestment ot l.A),0.)0 icen repaid, bat the
trees have been valued at A'l.iKJsi.OuO.1
There are many varieties of the cinchona.
One is the cali-nvn, whii-h is rich in alkaloid.
Another variety is the officinalis th" bark of
whic h is known as crown bark. Oilier varie
ties are coiKlamanca an 1 tlv succirubra. Tue
last named is rat ier larger than th others
an.l more robust and of quicker growth, but
not so rich in alkaloid, though it yields plenty
of bark. These barks are gonei-ally known
to commerce as Peniviau bark, tho igh not
cultivated in Peru nor grown there to any
great extent The trees aro plaufd from
tuive to four feet apart, and mature ia about
six years.
There are three methods of treatment in
cultivation. One w by thinning out, or &j
lecting the largest trees to lie retained. An
other is by coppicing, which is simply cutting
the trees down to a ;tufup and permitting the
shoots to grow. At the harvest these shoots
are cu." off. The third method is culled the
Mclvor system, and consists in taking the
tark from a part of the matured tree tnd
mossing over the stripped place until the bark
is renewed. If the mossing is carefully done
the bark will renew itself continually. The
bark is sold at 2 shillings to 13 shillings a
pound, and is sold readily, for th supply has
never yet been too great The cinchona tree
requires a tropical climate and a plentiful
rainfall. It would not grow in tho United
States, but can be cultivated in Mexico. The
tree requires careful cultivation.

When the repo-ter3 got down Bijah was
dusting off thj chairs and sinking "Only a
Pansy Biossom." Ho was offered 50 cents,
tl, $2, and finally as high as $4
and a Laud-ded if he would quit
at the end of his first verse, but he indig
nantly spurned all overtures. One after
another the prisoners called out to him
to have me-cy and let up, but it was not until
the occupant of cell No. ? fainted dead away
w ith a cry of despair that tho old janitor
hushed his song and said:
"I don't see why it i3 that everybody
pitches into niy sinking. Is thjre anything
the matter with my voice f
"Anjching!" shouted thi reportorial band
in chorus.
"1 have been told that there was a touch
of pathos in it."
"Pa ha I ha! thoa!"
"And that it reminds the hearers of their
childhood da5's."
"Child-ha! ha! hool days!"
"Oh. well, it's no use to combat such jeal
ousy as yours. No one can blame the crow
for bearing the eagle. All of you go to
Texas."
The first prisoner out was Abner Johnson,
the victim wao had fainted. Ho looked pale
xnd weak, and his honor gazed at him and
laid:
"Prisoner, theise sprees are using yon up.'?
"Sprees!. Why, last night is thu fust time I
lave been drunk in two years f
"AT ell, it soems to have exhausted you."
"It wasn't that, sir. 1 could stand four or
3ve dmn-ts und not feel tho worse for it, but
when you come to lock a man up u a close

fifty hyenas to bowling rfore his door, some
