On the steamer which came in from
Florida there arrived a tall, lank citizen
of the Cracker State. He was well
equipped with baggage, and when he
had collected his belongings and found
an expressman he went up to a Broad
way hotel, registered and took a room,
About an hour later he reapjeared at
the desk.
"Reckon you didn't see the baggage
brought, did you?" he asked the clerk.
"Yes."
"Notice the two trunks?"
" "Yes."
"Three valises and a shawlstrap?"
"Believe so."
"See the hatbox?"
"I did."
"Umbrellas, canes, and all that?"
"Yes."
"Then I reckon you made a mistake
in the room."
"I put you in 3Q9."
"So you did," admitted the new ar
rival, "but it's a closet: it ain't a room."
"Nothing of the kind," snapped the
clerk. "Comfortable, airy room; we
had no other."
"Is, hey? Well, the porter has just
brought up my baggage, and it's all in
side except the shawlstrap and me. We
was last and couldn't get in."
"You asked for a dollar room," said
the clerk.
"I know it."
"I can give you a suite on the fourth
floor for five dollars a day."
"Don't want it," rejoined the Florida
citizen emphatically. "Colonel," he add
ed with a graceful wave of his hand,
"I ain't come down to kick; I'm per
fectly satisfied. I like your hotel. The
rooms is all large and airy. Me aud the
shawlstrap is going to get into 309. It
may take some noise and hammerin,
but we'll get thar. I'm goin to spit on
my hands and begin pretty soon, and I
thought I'd ask you to send some one
around in about an hour to sweep np
the splinters." '
The clerk looked at the mild manner
ed Florida man for a moment in silence.
Then he said: "Front, show the gentle
man to that suite on the south corner,
fourth floor. No extra charge, sir," he
added to the guest with a beamin
smile; "you must be tired after the V03--
age. Anything else I can do.' New

Treed by a Hear.
Information has reached the city of
the exciting experience of George Allen
and Mike Flynn, two prospectors, with
a cinnamon bear in the mountains a
short distance from Red Cliff. The meu
were on a prospecting tour and well
armed. As they were eating breakfast
they were paralyzed to see a short dis
tance away and coming toward them in
a leisurely manner, attracted by he
odor of the bacon they had just cooked.
a huge bear. Allen advised flight, but
Flynn could not resist the temptation to
use his Winchester. Taking careful
aim, he fired.
The ball struck the bear in the neck
and with a roar he rushed for the
shooter. Flynn fled for his life, with the
bear in hot pursuit. Before running far
he was fortunate enough to find a tree
with low reaching branches. Grasping
one of these he swung clear off the
ground just as the bear came jumping
up, escaping with a claw in the left leg
The bear attempted to follow, but was
finished with a shot in the spine from
Allen's rifle. Leadville Cor. Denver

Casualties for Six Months.
Since Jan. 1 there have been four de
structive windstorms, killing nearly 200
persons, viz., April 1, Missouri and Kan
sas, 75; May 16, Texas, 15; May 27, Wel
lington, Kan., 53; June 16, southern
Minnesota, 50. In the same period there
have been four great floods, viz., April
11, Tombigbee rlver)Q30; May 18, Sioux
City, la., 83; May 20, lower Mississippi,
36; June 5, fire and flood. Oil Creek. Pa.,
190. There also have been four mining
disasters, viz., Jan. 7, McAllister, L T.,
65; April 20, Minersville, Pa., 12; May
10, Roslyn, Wash., 44; May 14, Butte,
Mon., 11. Three fires have been un
usually disastrous to life, viz., Jan. 21,
Indianapolis Surgical institute, 19; Feb.
7, Hotel Royal, New York, 30; April 28,
theater, Philadelphia, 12.
Besides these there were on March 21
an explosion at Jordan, Mich., by wlnieb
10 lives were lost; June 13, the explo
sion at the Mare Island navy yard,
which killed 13, and June 15, the fall
of the bridge over Licking river, by
which 32 lives were sacrificed. These
are the principal disasters of the yeai
thus far, and they involve an aggregate
of 960 lives. Adding to this total the
sum of losses by minor accidents we
have the following sad and unusual
record; By fire, 876; by drowning, 1,364,
by explosions, 313; by falling struc
tures of various kinds, 267; by mine dis
asters, 308; by windstorms, 340, and by
lightning, 120. Grand total, 3,588.
The total loss of life by these causes
during the whole of last year and 1891
was one of the most destructive years

A Nine-year-old Hero.
In a ward of one of the city hospital
lies a little boy who is slowly recovering
from a surgical operation. He is only
nine years old. A wagon wheel rolled
over him about three weeks ago, and
then the surgeons amputated one little
leg. But the owner is a brave chap and
patient, and his bravery has won foi
him a passport into the heart of every
attendant who has seen him. He has
valid's shoe the good nurse has been
knitting for him out of bright worsted.
She finished the lue lust wee.k, and he
asked to keep it by his pillow where lit
could see it. He gazed at the bright bit
of footgear with infinito satisfaction,
and then asked:
"When are you going to make the
other one?"
"The other one, dear? What othei
one?"
He glanced down at the ono foot with
out a mate.
"Yes I know. I don't need but
just only one, do I?"
Then there came a half smothered sob,
the brave little face turned toward the
wall and not even the nurso saw tho
big round tear that rolled down to the
pillow. The sorrow of a man had come
to the nine-year-old hoy. New York
Recorder.
Counterfeit Fives Afloat.
Business men in East Baltimore are
agitated over counterfeit five dollar
notes. Nearly every day one or more
of these notes turn up at the bank count
ers. The notes are imitations of treas
ury notes of the series of 1HH0. The pa
per is of a poor quality and lighter in
color than the genuine note. Especially
noticeable is the poor engraving. It
seems to bo the work of an amateur or
of a very nervous person. The picture
of Jackson looks like the impression of
a wood cut. But one feature is any
where near perfection, and that is the
signatures of Registrar Rosecraus and
Treasurer Huston. These are excel
lently counterfeited and would baflle
any one but an expert. Bank officials
think a number of these counterfeits
have been put into circulation within
the past week or two in that section of
the city, and but few have yet gotten
out of that vicinity. Baltimore Amer
ican. A I J ad Year for Uailrouil Ituililing.
From the returns now received at this
office, collected with unusual care and
thoroughness, we find that during the
six months from Jan. 1 to July 1 there
have been laid in the United States
1,806 miles of new main track on llo
lines in thirty-five of the states and
territories. Last year at this time we
found that 1,728 miles of track had been
laid, so that it would appear that there
has thus far been a falling off of over 2-i
per cent, compared with the same
period of 1891. But a review of the
work in progress throughout the coun
try does not warrant the belief that the
falling off for the entire year will be in
any such proportion. Last j'ear showed
the smallest aggregate of track laying,
4,200 miles, that has been reported in
this country since 1883. Chicago Rail

Idols Not LesH Than COO Years Old.
It is reported from Santa Fe, N. M.,
that in excavating some Aztec ruins
near Chaco canyon Governor Prince has
unearthed twenty stone idols of a differ
ent type from any before discovered.
They are circular in shape, forming
disks varying from six to fifteen inches
in diameter, the upper half containing a
deeply carved face and the lower half
rudimentary arms in relief. The idols
are believed to be at least 000 years old.
Salmon Packers Discouraged.
There is no improvement in the sal
mon outlook. Packers generally are in
clined to take a gloomy view of the situ
ation, and are of opinion that the pack
will be 50,000 to 73,000 cases short of
that of last year. Some of the packers
have ceased taking orders for fish, hav
ing already disposed of as many cases as
they are likely to put up unless the fish
ing takes a change for the better. Port

Fire from llirds Nestn.
On taking off the roof of a house near
Cambridge, which had been on fire, it
was found that a quantity of straw had
been carried by birds between the roof
and the ceiling, and this had been ig
nited from a hole in the chimney. Alto
gether the birds had taken up three or
four sacks of rubbish. Boston Letter.
The Frolicsome Chipmunk.
As the woodchuck sleeps away tha
bitterness of cold, so in his narrower
chamber sleeps the chipmunk, happy
little hermit, lover of the sun, mate of
the song sparrow and the butterflies.
What a goodly and hopeful token of tha
earth's renewed life is he, verifying the
promises of his own chalices, the squir
rel cups, set in the warmest corners of
the woodside, with libations of dew and
shower drops, of the bluebird's carol,
the sparrow's song of spring!
Now he comes forth from his long
night into the fullness of sunlit day to
proclaim his awakening to his summer
comrades, a gay recluse, clad all in the
motley a jester ma3'be, yet not a fool.
His voice, for all its monotony, is in
spiring of gladness and contentment
whether he utters his thin, sharp chip or
full mouthed cluck or laughs a clutter
ing mockery as he sciirries in to his nar
row door.
He winds along his crooked pathway
of the fence rails and forages for half
forgotten nuts in the familiar grounds,
brown with strewn leaves or dun with
dead grass, Sometimes he ventures to
the top rail and clinibs to a giddy ten-foot
height on a tree, whence he looks abroad,
wondering on the wide expanse of an
acre.
Music hath charms for him, and you
may entrance him with a softly whistled
tune and entice him to frolic with a
herdsgrass head gently moved before
him. Forest and Stream.
