The question of relinquishing seats to women in the public conveyances is like the poor, always with us. aida man recently discussing it: "There is just this point which 1 have some to re alize; either I must make un my mind never to have a seat iu a car, or I must decide never to give it up. I go and come to my place of business at the hours when almost everybody else does; the cars are invariably crowded aud there are always women standing to whom it is possible to offer my dace if I get one. Such being me case, it is also possible for me to stand the year through. I cannot see that this sacri fice is demanded by the conditions. "I am ready to give up my seat at any time to any person, woman or man w hose manner or appearance indicates less ability to stand than I possess but I am not willing to resign it every time I find a woman standing. We are fellow travelers in a conveyance in which the supply of seats will never, until the milleiiiium, equal the demand; today I am fortunate, tomorrow she will lie, and 1 think most women prefer to accept this proportion of success rather than to have seats continually resigned to them. At last my woman kind have so expressed themselves to to me on the supject."-Xew York Tim?s. City Srhuuls.

Fulton one time went to see a per petual motion machine, having a friend with him. After sitting and listening and looking intently for a few minutes, Fulton's sensitively accurate ear and eye told him that the machinery showed the recurring alternation of compara tive Seed and slowness which always comes from a crank turned by hand. In spite of the opposition of the en raged exhibitor, Fulton and his friend seized the machinery, jerked away the table it stood on, found that a cord led through one leg and away under the floor, and following the tract into the back yard they found the 'niotion"-a venerable lieggar seated on a stool, munching away at a crust and grinding away at a crank.-Chicago Herald. Cigar Ashen Good for Heartburn A gentleman, who is a very heavy smoker, did a peculiar thing in my presence the other day. He knocked off a portion of the white ash at the end of his weed into his hand and without more ado swallowed it. I naturally asked the reason for this remarkable performance, mid, to my surprise, learned that it is a sure cure for the heartburn which sometimes overtakes the devotees of tobacco. Not being afflicted in that way, I did not care to try the remedy, but hasten to com municate it to my fellow smokers. My informant was at one time engaged in the cigar importing business, and was accustomed to test cigars by the score. He informs me that he learned the curious fact in question in (luba, where the remedy is habitually used by the Don's who breathe as much to bacco smoke as the do air. New York Star. lib. Room Mate. a gentleman wno is not so young as he was once, says the Y'outh's Com panion, recalls with amusement some of his exerinces while keeping school in certain rural districts, it seems to bim long, long ago. Accustomed as he was, to the comforts and refinements of a well kept house, he found it diffi cult to adapt himself to to the peculiar system of housekeeping in vogue in the district where he taught. At one of his boarding places he was given an uncarpeted and untidy little bedroom on the ground floor of an old farm-house, very much out of repair because of the shiftlessness of its own er. Ushered into this uninviting room, and being told to make himself "right to home," the young teacher, tired and homesick, went at once to bed, and was almost asleep when he heard a sound as of some one moving about under the bed. He was not a very brave young man and felt himself poorly prepared to cope with a possible desperado. F'or a long time, therefore, he lay perfectly still. Once more he heard the noise. He could bear tlie suspense no longer. He got up, lighted his candle, and knelt down to look under the bed, which had an old fashioned valance of purple cal ico around it. Hardly had he lifted this valance when the concealed foe made a furious onslaught upon him, knocked him heels over head and bruised him badly. The candle was nut out and the frightened teacher roared lustily for help. In rushed the farmer and his wife, to discover their guest sprawling ou the floor, while his foe stood in a comer of the room, shaking his head deflnately, as if he meditated a second attack. "Oh, I'm almost killed," gasped the teacher; "there was a man or some aw ful animal under the bed." "Twa'n't no man," said the farmer grinning in a very sympathetic man ner; 'twas only our old bjlly-gont. I'd oiter 'ove told you that he sleeps under the bed in this room. He wouldn't have touched you if you'd paid no 'tentlon to him. (Jit back under thar' you rascal, and lay still!" He gave the goat a kick as he spoke, and it disappeared under the bed. The teacher also retired again, but the next ayd he sought a more congenial board ing place. , AfUrlh Piiio. Miss xNeverpay Why does paw look so glum, maw ? J Md the bank he keeps bis money in fail ?

Finding no ou there, they would attribute the phenomenon to be an evi dence that the evil spirit reigned over the vessel. Some of the visitors made ineffectual attempts to prevent the ringing of the bell by grasping the wire tightly in their hands, hoping in that way to head off the evil one who was playing such freaks for their amusement. An elec tric primer, immersed iu a bucket of. water, was surrounded by half a dozen dirty denizens, of the benighted land, while another native was told to push' a button at a distance, whereupon the primer exploded, throwing water all over the surprised party, who were looking eagerly into the bucket. Some incandescent lamps were low ered far dowu into the water, and be ing suddenly lighted, no one being near, the natives were filled with horror, and without stopping to look at the uncanny switch board, which they re garded as an important part of the anatomy of the evil spirit, they hastily scrambled over the sides of the vessel and hurried away from the devil and the Trenton.-St. Louis (ilohe-I)emo-crat. New York's Oldest House. The oldest house in New Ycik stands No. 122 William street. It was built in 1W2, during which year the corpora tion opened up the streets between Wall and Fair streets. Fair street is now called Fulton street. Lots were sold by the city and of the the terms of the purchase required the buyers to erect buildings thereon of brick or stone not less than two stories high. This house was built of narrow Dutch bricks brought over from Holland as ballast and laid in an imperishable cement which is as hard today as the bricJks themselves. On the grounds immediately .'cfc A the house was shed the first bMbd Oi the revolution. -This was at the battle of Golden Hill, which was fought two months belore the .Boston massacre About eighty members of the Sixteenth regiment of foot (British) had taken up tlisir position on the highest point of the Golden Hill, which was situated on the block now bounded by Williamn John, Fulton and (Sold streets. Th Sons of Liberty hastily collected some muskets and pistols and marched to the hill determined to disperse the sol diers and make them prisoners. Klool was shed on both sides. One old man was shot through the head, three citi zens and five soldiers were wounded. The house was used at various periods before and during the revolution as a tavern. Among its patrons were George Washington, Baron Steuben, General i'utmau and Lafayette. A Blind Judgment. One of the players must be blind folded and seated at the upper end of the room. Kach of the others is then led in turn, and, without touching them, the blinded one must give udg ment regarding them. If the judg ment is probable then the person led up must be blindfolded in his place: if not he pays a forfeit and another per son is brought up until he makes a cor rect guess. F'or example: Question What is your sentence re garding this prisoner? Judge lie must sing aGermansong. Forfeit Miss T does not under stand German, and is so hoarse she can scarcely speak.
