Under Contract.
A man , who was taking in some of
the'sights at Brighton the other day
was led to notice a Bhorfrhaired
youmr man in a loud check suit , who
was. accompanied on his rounds by a
couple of younger chaps , who seemed
to dote on him and to imitate his
itctions as far as possible. After
awhile he with the short hair seemed
to get up an aching for a row , and
he drovo the firstpeg by approaching.
the man in a swaggering way and
impudently demanding :
"Is you the cove that's got a ci
gar fer mo ? "
He received an emphaticnegative ,
when up went his eyebrows , and he
continued :
"De cove is inclined to be sassy ,
but perhaps it's 'cause ho don't know
me. Chollie , you and Dan give him
an eye-opener , " and while he assumed
a supposed graceful pose , with his
hat plantedover his ear , "Chollie"
approached and whispered ;
"He's bad awfully bad ! He's de
wickedest fightuh in New York , he is.
He's going to challenge any kid of
his age to a finish any kid in do
world. "
"He 'd better go and dig for clams ! "
growled the man.
"What's dat ? " demanded the aw
fully bad. "De cove wants his eye
punched , and if it wasn't furdatcop-
per over dere I'd do it. Perhaps he'll
do me de honbh to step around be
hind de pavilion ! "
The man said he would and did ,
and as he reached a secluded spot
and peeled his coat the wickedest ob
served :
"I begs de cove's pardon , but I
just remembered dat I am under con
tract not to fight until I meets do
Oswego Whirlwind. I should like to
put him to sleep , but it would be agin
de contract. "
It was suggested that the other
two mighL sail in for him , but he re
plied :
"Chollie is me trainer and Dan is
me backer , and it would be agin de
contract. "
The man then suggested that he
had a licking in store for the three ,
and that he should begin business in
thirty seconds ; but before fifteen had
elapsed he was alone.
Lovers of Gems.
"Willia m Hunt , the artist , and Henrj
Ward 1 Beecher used often to meet at
Mr. Eemick's in Boston , and each
was " fond of pointing out new gem
beauties to the other. One day , while
Mr. Beecher was looking over the
contents of the safe , he came across
a bit of chalcedony.
"Ah , " said he , "doyouknowyqu've
got a piece of the gate of heaven
here ? If you know a fellow who isn't
likely to see paradise soon , just be
stow this onhiintocarryasaglimpse
of ( comfort and heavenly beauty.
A little while after Hunt lounged
in. i
in."Hei'e
"Hei'e , " said Mr.Bemick , "isapieco
of the gate of heaven Beecher says
so. "
"How does he know ? " was the re-
piy"Oh I
"Oh , " said Mr. Bernick , "he lives
nearer 1 there than you or I , and I be
lieve he is in sight of it most of the
time. He told me to give it to some
body that wasn't sure to see it in a
hurry , so I'll hand it over to 3'ou. "
. Little did either dream how near
the recipient was to the entrance of
paradise. I It was but a few weeks aft
er that the sad accident which . lost to
America one of her greatest artists.
But before his death he had chosen a
mounting \ for his bit of chalcedony
and sent it to his favorite sister Miss
Jane Hunt , who still wears it as an
amulet. Ladies' Home Journal.
Rising and Falling in Church.
A well known Indiana member of
congress had as a visitor recently a
oonstituentfrom the backwoods who
; was not very well acquainted with
the i interior of the house of divine wor
ship , but who had thoroughly deter
mined ; that he would see everything
there 1 was to be seen at the national
capital during his stay here. Sunday
morning , therefore , he announced
that he was going to church.
Now , the Indiana member was not
much of a churchgoer himself. In
fact , he usually devotes his Sunday
mornings to his correspondence ,
which has fallen behind in the course
of the week. He allowed his constit
uent to wander off by himself to find
a place of worship. About . 1 o'clock
the Indiana man returned. His host
asked him where he had been. He
responded in a matter of fact sort of
way thathehad been to a well known
Episcopal church in the neighbor
hood , which he named.
"How did you get along ? " said the
host. "Didn'tyou feel a bit strange ? "
"Oh , no , " said the Indiana man
solemnly. "Ifelt all right. I riz and
fell with them every time. " New York
Tribune.
A Long Ride.
In November , 1889 , Capt. Pyevt-
zoff , a cossack officer , started from
the town of Bielovetchensk , on the
river Amoor , to ride across Siberia
and Russia to St. Petersburg , ajour-
nej' of 5,300 miles , nearly a quarter
of the distance around the globe.
He travels quite alone on an ordi-
nary cavalry horse ; carries his own
provisions , makes about fifty miles
a day , and is armed from head to
foot for protection against robbers.
He has met with intense cold , the
thermometer showing 58 degs. be
low zero , but he is in good health :

Just How She Escaped.
From the PLi'uilelpliiu Inquirer.
"Early in the } (50s ( I was a railroad
telegraph operatordown in Georgia , "
Baid he , "and I had a mighty narrow
escape from being lynched one day *
It was in tho afternoon. A gang o'
darkies came along to where my sta
tion was , about three miles from any
human habitation. They had in
their grasp a beautiful 3oung white
. girl , and they tied her fast to one rail
of the track , right befcro my eyes.
They then stood there , and pointing
revolvers at my head said if I inter
fered in any way they would murder
me. Five minutes before the Atlantic
express was due they departed , leav
ing the girl on the track to bo cut in
two by the train. I was in terrible
suspense. I know I would be called
a coward and a cur if I allowed that
girl to be killed , but I was afraid to
signal tho train to stop , because I
knew the darkies would kill me if I
did. But I was going to save my
position anyhow. Just as the train
passed my signal station I ran down
the track and with a pair of pilers
cut the wire connecting the signal to
thestation. Bydoingthis I thought
I could tell the railroad officials that
the vandals had cut the wii'e so that
I could not signal the train. See the
fine point ? Well , while 1 was cutting
the wire the wind came up suddenly
and blew a perfect tornado. Big oak
trees were blown over so that their
tops touched the ground , and I had
to hang on to the track so that I
wouldn't be blown a way. Well , when
I went up the track I saw those dark
ies running away , and I supposed
that the girl had been cut in two. I
was prepared to look upon a horrible
sight , but , to my great joy and utter
astonishment , she was still alive. I
cut the rope with my pilers and re
leased her. I carried her tenderly up
to the signal station , bound up the
gashes made in her limbs by the rope ,
and- "
"And what ? " asked somebody.
"And I asked her to be my wife. "
"What did she say ? "
"She thanked me for m3r bravery
and softly murmured : 'Yes. ' "
"But how was it the train didn 't
kill her ? "
"I never found out until two years
afterward. Then I met the engineer
of that very train. He explained to
me that just us the train was about
to strike the girl that a heavy gust of
wind came along. It was so power-
ful that it lifted one side of the train
over , making it run on one rail for
about 500 feet before it fell back on
the other rail. It so happened thali
thegirlwastiedto therail from which
the wheels raised , and that's how sho
escaped. "

The Mystery of Dimples.
Certain beautifiers declare that
even in the adult they can produce
dimples by a semi-surgical process.
This may be , but , after all , the se
crete spring of the dimple is the soul.
As the latter overflows with smiles
the face assumes a radiance that art
cannot imitate. Blue eyes or black
sparkle as the light rushes upward
from its hidden caves , cheeks glow
and dimples appear. For a girl , two
dimples , one at each corner of the
mouth or near those points , are a
lavish gift. The daintiest smile will
bring them out well defined and rav
ishing , a broad grin will expand
them into furrows. Therefore it is
woman's privilege to smile , if she has
dimples. This is no news to the fair
sex. A woman with dimples would
not lose one for the world. She is
very earful of them , and regulates
her smiles to the capacity of her dim
ples.Moreover
Moreover , by smiling a woman
may producea prettygood imitation
of a dimple a dimpleoid , the der
matologists would call it. Young
girls practice this before a mirror ,
and with remarkable success. A
half hour a day for about two years
is generally sufficient to produce
good results. The operation is sim
ple. First , carefully ascertain the
effect of an ordinary smile. Note the
expansion of the mouth. Next place
a thumb and forefinger , one in each
furrow made by the smile ; then al
ternately relax and contract the
smile , afc the same time pressing
heavily on the furrows. One thing
must be avoided in order to give
the operation a fair trial. In eating
be careful to move only thejaws dur
ing mastication. Do not move the
whole face. Many a darling dimple ,
by the latter error , is lost irretriev
ably. And , above all , practice the
same smile without deviation.
She Was Tired of Life.
"I have worked until I am tirea
out. " Thus began a no te written by
Mary L. EaglesfieldofUtica. "Bury
me in the Potter's field any where
only lay me to rest. " A few more
words closed her note , and then the
girl purchased a vial ot laudanum ,
made her way to the St. Agnes ceme
tery and swallowed the fatal draught.
Some hours later she was found
dead. Rest , eternal rest had come.

Costa Rica's latest scheme for rais
ing money and the purpose for which
it : is to be raised are novel , to say the
least. A new theater is wanted at
the capital , and an export duty has
been placed by congress on coffee in
order to rise the necessary money.
However , as only $200,000 isneeded :
for tile purpose , the tax will not last
long. ;
