"He stopped mo in tho strootono night. "'Will you lend mo ten dollars? lie said rongh'y. 'I am in a bad way and 1 need it.' "Now ten dollars wan a good deal of money to mo at that minute, for in my western exierience 1 had my ujis and downs, and at that tinio I was having my 'downs.' " 'Wouldn't a dollar do youV I asked.for the fellow looked so bad tliat I wanted to do something for him, but I knew that I should never boo my money again. " 'No,' he said doggedly, 'it won't. I want to go to Denver. I am about crazy with pain and I want to get there and see if I can't find some relief. I haven't a cent in the world.' (There were a good many men in that little town who were in the same predicament.) " 'But I can't spare ten dollars,' I an swered. 'I need it.' " 'You don't need it so much as I do, he said fiercel3 'Lend it to me. I'll pay it back to you. Give me your name and address. I'll find you if I live.' "Well, I gave him the ten dollars. I told him that he need not worry about paying it back. I expected to get out of my troubles some day and then I should not feel the need of it. " 'No,' he said. 'I won't touch it on any other condition. I want to pay it back with interest 12 per cent, a year.' (Money was worth something out there.) "So I wrote out my name for him, giving him as my permanent address the home of my family in the east. The next day he went to Denver. Shortly afterward I climbed into a saddle and rode away to 'punch cows.' I punched them with varying success all over the Colorado grazing fields for nine years. Having had enough of cattle raising by that time and my ideas of great fortunes having been considerably modified, I sold out my cattle and came back. "Of course, after the first few months following my loan of ten dollars to the cripple, he never came into my thoughts, though there were times when that ten dollars would have been a good friend, but I completely forgot about it. I had been east for three years, had married and was the proud father of the two handsomest children in New York, when a letter was forwarded to me from my father's home in Massachusetts. It was from the cripple. In it was a postoffice order for my ten dollars and interest on it for twelve years, at 1 per cent, a month. There was no word in the letter except thanks for my kindness and the assur ance that he was now 'doing pretty well for him.' "I call that man a gentleman and 1 told him so when I wrote him, and I also told him something in the letter which I hoped would please him that on that day I had made the first bank deiosit for my baby son, and that the amount was 2-1.40, his loan aad the in terest, and that though the interest for the boy would not be anything like 12 per cent., the deposit ought to biing him good luck. That's all there is to this story." New York Tribune. - A Faithful Car Ilorse. A queer and intelligent Norwich ani mal is the Franklin street hill horse, belonging to the Norwich Ilorse Rail way company. For several years she has done duty on the hill, and knows quite as much about the business of running horse cars as .any other em ployee. She has no driver. After break fast she trudges up to her station at the foot of the Franklin street hill alone, and when a loaded car comes to climb the steep grade voluntarily takes her place in front of it and helps to drag it half a mile to Rockwell street. At that point the driver relieves the hill horse, and she goes leisurely back to the bottom of the hill. Sometimes she goes clear down to Franklin square, where the cars are started, and exceeds her duty by helping the other horses along the route before the hill is reached. Connecticut Cor. New York Sun. W hen Pus Is Dangerous. Pus is at first healthy. By its forma tion nature seeks to check or cure in flammation; but if the pus cannot find a free vent it soon becomes septic, when no medicine offers any hope, and even a surgical operation but little. The time for an operation is before the pus le comes septic generally on the second or third day. Youth's Companion. Why a Steamer Vibrates in Calm tVater. Mr. Yarrow says that the canse of vibration in screw vessels when running in smooth water with their propellers well immersed is mainly due to the forces produced by the unbalanced mov ing parts of the machinery, such as pis tons, piston rods, valves, gear, etc. New York Times.

Profepsor Ernst Curtius, the famous Greek scholar and archaeologist of tho University of Berlin, announced a few months ago that lie had discovered that the Greek sculptors always made the eyes of men fuller and rounder than those of women. Tho alleged discovery was considered important, as it was be lieved that it would lead to a projx r classification of many of the unidenti fied heads of Greek statues. Thohoj -however, seem to have lieen premature despite tho fact that Cnrtius, who h;. been called "Tho Modern Greek." f.i thered them. Dr. ( j reef, of Berlin, in a recent lec ture delivered before tho Prussian Acad emy of Science, declared that Cnrtius conclusions were wrong, as ho had found flat, narrow eyes those of women, ac cording to Cnrtius in tho heads of Greek statues of men. He had also measured plastic representations of worn en with largo, full eyes. In nature. !; added, there was no difference bet wen. tjo eyes of men and women. lie h; examined recently in Berlin the eyes el a hundred memliers of each sex am: had found that they were the same in thape, size and form. He thus upheld the theories of Zinn and Sommeiling that the Greek sculptors who gave a greater fullness to tho eyes of men than to those of women did not follow the conditions of nature. New York Trib une. Plenty of Game In Maine. There has not been a year for some time 'when game was as plenty and when so little game has been killed and destroyed as during the past win ter. One reason is that the snow in many localities has not been deep, and at the same time it has been hard, hold ing up tlie deer and caribou and giving them a chance to protect themselves by flight. Another reason is that the guides and hunters have learned that it is for their interest to leave the game alone, especially during the deep snows. I have made it a point to see many of ihem in the early part of the winter, and tried to make them understand that it is for their interest for us to keep a good stock of fish and game, as they would get more business during the guiding season. The most of the game that has been killed the past winter has been killed in the back settlements, hunters using dogs to catch deer. There has been a story of ninety moose killed near our border line, in township 5, range 18. 1 believe the most of this yarn is false. 1 have been within a day's walk of the township this winter and I did not learn of any such business. In fact there are not moose enough in that locality. It is near the Canada line, and this same re port comes from there every year. Cor. Portland (Me.) Press. Beekeepers and the Government. Foreign bees without pedigrees may be admitted to the United States free of duty. The secretary of the treasury has so decided. Until the last tariff bill was passed bees from abroad came in gratis, as "animals imported for breeding pur poses." The McKinley law declared that this ruling should only apply to an imals "regularly entered in recognized herd books." Accordingly, bees were assessed 20 per cent, ad valorem, be cause they had no pedigrees. The bee keepers protested and carried their point. Some time ago the postoffice department declared that bees were "unmailable," on the ground that they would be likely to sting people if they got loose. The beekeepers secured the recall of this reg ulation, by proving that the packages employed could not be broken. Wash ington Cor. New Orleans Times-Democrat. Little Fear of Indian Troubles. A gentleman at Rosebud agency writes that the reports of dissatisfaction among the Indians there have been greatly ex aggerated. Since his arrival there two weeks ago he has traveled quite exten sively through the various Indian camps and thinks the Indians never exhibited a more peaceful frame of mind than at present. Never did they take hold of work more readily or more extensively and never did they take more interest in the care of their stock than the past winter, as can plainly be seen by the condition of horses and cattle this spring. So far as dissatisfaction with rations is concerned, if there is any such, the white employees hear nothing of it. Cor. Min neapolis Journal. Confederate Coins. There has recently been some inquiry as to whether the Confederate govern ment coined any gold. The question was referred to the Hon. Charles C. Jones, Jr., of Augusta, who telegraphs as follows: "The Confederate States, as I now remember, coined and issued no gold. A few experimental half dollara in silver were struck, but they did not pass into circulation." Charleston News and Courier. A Circus Tnmblcr Has a FalL A dispatch from Warsaw, Ind., says: "Charles Neff, a laborer in Lakeside park, while engaged in trimming a tree fell from its top to the ground, a dis tance of sixty feet, and was uninjured Neff is an old circus tumbler, and the agility learned in the ring saved his life. He fell on his hands and rebounded in the air ten feet, alighting on his feet without a scratch." A lawsuit has been commenced in Marengo, Ind., between Edmund Waltz and El wood Stout, over the price of two eggs, bought at seventeen cents per dozen. Two of the don were rotten, and Waltz demanded a return of the price. A young man hypnotized at an enter tainment in Paris remained senseless for two days and was with difficulty brougt back to consciousness. A Missouri judge presented to the ex Confederate home fifty-eight cents, but they were very old coins and are to bo sold at auction. THEY DO NOT MAURY. WHY YOUNG PEOPLE FIND SINGLE BLESSEDNESS SO COMFORTABLE. If They Get Married Thry Would Ilavr. to Make m Great Many Sacrifices, or So They Think, and as a Kf-eult Tliey Kor-v Away from the Knot of Ifjnirn. It is an oft repeated remark that New York is the finest place in tho republic to live in if you are rich. But it is worse than tho meanest suburb, the dreariest of western "booin towns." thn dullebt country village if you are poor. This is the criticism of tho person who does not contemplate lifo as a possibil ityor an agreeable jMssibility without society, in the narrow sense of tho word; without the pleasures that come from money, without tho social standing that a good bank account gives, without 1 ing able "to keep up with tho proe sion" of those who are well dressed, well fed, well situated and well off. Singularly enough, those who demand these things who will not accept mar ried life without them are generally not well supplied with this world's goods. People who have been rich all their lives do not realize what it means to go with out their luxuries. But people who have been poor know just the wretchedness of having to wear patched boots and go without lunch: of having to walk long distances, because car fare "mounts up;" of having to refuse nice invitations, be cause they have no clothes or no means of returning proffered civilities. To these, poverty is a bitter thing, and they loathe it. Marriage, unless it means escape from carping cares of this kind, they eschew as a hopeless evil. Better endure those trials that we have than fly to others that we know not of, they say. So thinks the everyday, gentlemanly, good looking, entirely personable young man of thirty, who draws an income of from two to four thousand a year, and is asked out all over because he dances admirably and is good to look at, and never does anything gauche. So. also, thinks the pretty, well bred, well dressed, moderately bright girl of tweutj--fiv6, whose father spends six thousand a year and has five children. Both of these know just the way they want their lives to go. Ever since childhood they have associ ated with companions who have had more money than they have, and they know how nice it is to be well off. To be rich or to remain as we are, that is their motto. "When we make the great move," they both think, "we make it to better ourselves materially, or we don't make it at all." They do not want to be millionaires, bat they do not want to be really pinched anywhere. Their house must be large enough and be comfortable. It must be well fitted up no "sheet by night and tablecloth by day" for them. There must be servants enough to run it. This girl who has always been comfortably placed, but never luxuriously has no intention of binding herself down to do mestic cares, of dusting her own draw ing room and turning up hems in her own table, linen. No; all that must be done for her. She has made her own dresses and trimmed her own hats all her girlhood, and she wants, when she marries, to change all that. Better to go on doing it in your own home, where it is all you have to worry over, than to do it in your husband's, where you have to keep the house and take care of children as well. Thus the young lady reasons and re jects her suitors with a peculiar and good humored indifference. She has made up her mind that she will not many a man who has a cent under five thousand a year, and is not above telling this to the soupirants, who take the hint and strive to realize the ideal. The young lady is quite frank. She is not in the least ashamed of her worldliness or de sirous of hiding it under a veil of at tractive coyness. She is not mercenary. It is not riches that she demands corn fort, that is all. If she is comfortable she will continue to be a very nice, at tractive person, but if she has to scrimp and struggle and fight over ten cent pieces, and turn her old clothes, and have her shoes patched, she will not be responsible for her temper. She is a fin de siecle to her finger tips sensibl3 where she might be romantic, practical where she once would have been impas sioned a person who is bound to iuska a success of her life and keep it on the lines that she regards as tho best. The young man cf her kind hold3 pre cisely the same views. Life with a be loved object sounds very charming, but it is not to be indulged in unless the in comes of himself and the beloved object foot up to from five to six thousand per annum. The beloved object on three thousand a year is too expensive a lux ury. He cannot afford it. What might have been a courtship dwindles to a mild friendship. Not infrequently he tells the lady of his sad predicament and how impossible a matrimonial alliance would be on his salary. She condoles with him and they become friends, for no violent fires burn in their hearts and friendship comes quite easily to them. Marriage would mean a series of sacri fices that neither is willing to mali3. They would have to live in a flat in Har lem and no one knows who has not lived in Gotham the horror in which Harlem is held or a second rate boarding houss beyond Fourth avenue.
