No man of fine taste can doubt that
English letters are just now in a bad
way , despite individual writers who
maintain the high tradition. The small
out cultivated circle of readers which
made the audience of former writers
is ceasing to exist. It was part of a
aobleman's character to have a taste
for and patronage of letters in the days
jf our ancestors ; now the aristocracy
is the last quarter to which one looks
! or literary cultivation.
Measured by the span of human
lives , the world is not so very old. The
vidow of the man who wrote "Ainer-
ca" in 1832 died recently and a wom-
tn whose father fought in the War of
; he Revolution died only a t"e\v weeks
aarlier. It would take only twenty-
five lives to reach baelr to the great
Caesar's time If each lasted , say ninety
years. Each person in tli.it line could
have seen his predectvjoor and his suc
cessor. Tlioreau found a man on Capa
Cod in 1S49 who heard the guns fired
at tile Battle of Bunker Hill and saw

The main object of small talk is to
avoid those distressing pauses which
occur when the attention of the life of
the party is momentarily distracted
from himself or herself , as the case
may be. It is not designed to convey
any meaning or really to entertain
anybody , for if It did either of thessp
things it would naturally liegenerat
into mere gossip and there is no tell
ing what skeletons might be discov
ered when the closet doors yielded to
the knocking. Even the most profound
among us would shrink from having
anything of this kind happen for it
might be our closet so in our philoso
phy we bow to this accomplishment
as a more or less necessary evil , whl'e
we flit by in the dignity of silence.
which Is variously interpreted us stv.
pldity or wisdom , till it is time to ; jo
home , meantime ardently wishing that
we had not come.
Women do not laugh so much as
men. They are believed to be less rich
ly endowed than men with a sense ol
humor , but true or not , that is not a
full explanation. Many humorous , even
witty , women hardly get beyond a
smile. The giggle and the titter are
not laughter at all , merely a kind of
make-believe , suggestive of sawdust
and shavings. It will be a pity if civ
ilization banishes from the gentle sex
that wholesome laugh which still doeth
good like a medicine. More than one
domestic crisis might be alleviated or
averted by laughter. The housemother ,
who dropped a dish of potatoes on
their way to the kettle , so that they'
landed In a deep pan of dough rising
beside the stove , and who then sat
down and laughed till she cried at the
funny , helpless air of the half-buried
potatoes , had a potent charm against
discouragement. To laugh at the blun
der of the green maid who , being told
to turn the mattress every day , made
the bed first and turned the mattress
afterward , la to forget the annoyance
of the moment in the sense of its ab
surdity. Laughter is a kind of magi-
clan , or , better still , a fairy. In fact ,
Mr. Barrle has a novel scientific ex
planation of the origin of fairies in
his "The Little White Bird. " He says :
"When the first baby laughed for the
first time , his laugh broke into a mill
ion pieces , and they all went skipping
about. That was the beginning of
fairies. " Everybody knows that the
fairies are the best "mothers' helpers"
and houseworkers in the world , and
that no well-regulated family can af
ford to be without them. Perhaps theyi
were born of the laughter of grown
up folk as well as of that of babies. In
that case , the scarcity of fairies now
adays may be traced to the Infrequency -
cy of the laugh of the overserious
woman.
It is a wonder which has become a
commonplace that each of the millions
of men and women in the world has an
appearance so different from all the
others as to be easily recognizable
among the throng. The rare exception
to the rule , as in the case of those twin
brothers one of whom died recently in
Boston. Is regarded as little short of
miraculous , although in reality the
miracle is in the usual unllkeness , in
stead of in the occasional likeness. To
be sure , all Chinese look alike to Amer
icans , but It is equally true that all
Americanslook alike to Chinese. The
fact doubtless is that the distinguish
ing variations are not the same for
the two races. We look at two Asiatic
faces , and seeing them alike where
Caucasian faces are different , do not
notice the uulikeness in other and un
expected details. The prevalent idea
that various nations have a type efface
face is open to discussion. We speak
of a typical Irish or Italian face , as if
It would be recognlzi. > le under any
circumstances. But do not dress , the
fashion of wearing hair and beard , the
attitudes due to occupation and the
complexion due to climate play a very
large part In the composite picture
which we call a "type" ? Certain it is
that although there may be a charac
teristic American voice or figure , there
is no distinctive American face. This ,
may be accounted for by our miseella-j
neons forbears , but it is quite likely to
be explained by our widely varied lives'
ind occupations , even among those
belonging to the same social plane. The
recognizable handwriting of each man
and woman is another curious and
wonderful fact. The forger becomes
clever , not by accident , but by long
and severe training ; and even he is
soon discovered. The subtle expression
of personality which is the work of the
r mln dictating to the sensitive hand
s as varied as the microscope shows
hand and brain to be. In short , the
amazing variations in personality go
far to make credible the Christian
faith that by an intelligence capacious
enough to contain them all , the human
units may be distinguished as easily
as we , with out limited powers , may
distinguish our friends.

The Wrong Passenger
Fremont , Neb , July 29. Three
unknown men atttempted to hold up
Joseph Scbieidera farmer living five
miles east and north of Fremont yes
terday morning.
The farmer was watering his hogs
when the men came driving up in a
a rickety one-horse buggy. They
asked leave to water their horse ,
which was granted. Ono of tbe rneuj
then told Schneider that be had done
some work for the Jatter several
years ago and that he had come to
c illect it. A month's pay he said was
due.
due.A
A lengthy dispute ensued ,
Schneider having no recollection of
ever having employed tbe man , and
it soon became evident from the
manner of tbe men that tbe state
ment of the spokesman was a mere
subterfuge for an attempt at holdup.
The fellow finally said : "I want
that money , and I'm going to have
it. "
"Oh , are you ? " rpplied Schneider ,
"We'll , see."He stepped into his
granary and tcok down a shotgun
put a couple of sbells into it and
stepped out again. One of the men
swung bis band around to bis hip
packet to draw a weapon , but tbe de
termined look in the farmer's eyes
persuaded bim not to.
"Now you fellows git" , commanded
Schneider. "Don't i.ise any time. "
Tbe trio looked at him aqain and
then clim ed into their bugcy.
They drove away and their int nded
victim bas not seen them since.

JOIN IN 4 MUTINY
THIRTEEN DESPERATE CONVI CTS
ESCAPE AT FOLSOM , CAL.
Folsom , Gal. , July 28. Thirteen
desperate prisoners confined in the
Folsom penitentiary made a success
ful break for liberty at the break-
last hour Monday morning.
The break occured about 1 o'clock
Monday morning. The convicts
n a Je immediately for the office of
the captain ot the guard , E. J.
*
Murphy . There they seized Warden
Wilkinson , his grandson. Harry
Wilkinson ; Captain Murphy and sev
eral other officers and guards. A des
perate fight took place. Tbe
c nvicts were armed with knifes
and razors with these they assaulted
Warden Wilkinson and his officers.
The warden's clothing was slashed
I ito shreds with a razor , but the
blade did not touch tbe flesh. Turn-
'key ' Cocbrane fought tbe convicts
with a chair , raining blows upon
tnem right and left Finally he was
felled by a knife thrust in the back.
Guard ( Jotte was cut in the abdo
men so that entrails protrudedwhile
Palmers was severely cur. in the head.
Tbe floor of the office was covered
with blood.
When the armory post was reached
lofficers there attempted to interfer ,
but were quickly overpowered. Then ,
after further fortifying themselves
with rifles , knives , pistols , and
ammunition , a dash for tbe country
was made.
( jonvlcts , each armed with rifles
marched on either side of Warden
Wilkinson , who was threatened with
death if be made an attempt to es
cape , and the officers were told that
if any of the pursuers took the life
| 0f one of their number they would
[ retaliate , life for life. At Mormon
( bridge , about a mile i > om the penl-
t2ntiary , the warden , his grandson
and Captain Murphy were released
and sent back. Tbe others were
marched along with tbe convicts.
Warden Wilkinson in his state
ment says :
"I went up to the prison as is my
customary fluty to see tbe cDnvicts
eat their breakfast. I stopped at
the captain's office to wait for the
prisoners to walk out from breakfast.
We were sitting In the office when
the line made its appearance from
the breakfast room a d started fui
the grounds. Suddenly seven or
eight of their prisoners made a rush
for the line with razors and knives
drawn , and came rlirecbly for us.
Tney were joined by others. I Judge
there were about fifteen.
"Blood began to flow. I saw that
it was hopeless tc put up a fighc
against sui-h odds. One of the con
victs cume up behind my back ,
rjached over with a razor and tried
to cut open ray abdomen. You can
see how my belt is slit from end t <
end. and how my coat is hanging in
shreds. Tbe convicts got me ard
Murpbey and five or six other officers
whom i.hey disirmerl. They kept us
and proceeded to tbe yard and out of
it by the front gate toward the arm
ory post. The Gatling guns in the
station hilltops and along tbe prison
walls would have been tired by the
guards , but had they done so the
officers , as well as the prisoners ,
would have been killed. The guards
were unable either to rescue us or to
prevent their escape. As we neared
the armoiy a guard came out and
th < ? y seized him. They took tbe keys
away from him. entered the armory
and equipped themselves with all
manner of weapons. Then they start
ed along the dnsty road and crossed
tbe prison ranch toward tbe Mormon
island bridge. After I had gon3
about a mile they let ir e go. They
also released Captain of tbe guards
Murphy and my grandson , Harry
Wilkinson. The resc of the men th ev
have taken along with them including
General Overseer McDonough , Guard
John Klensendorf , Guy Jetter , fore
man of the rock quarry ; Tony
Brown , stage driver , and Guard L ,
E. S. Vertres and two or three
others whose names I have not at
hand.
Folsom penitentiary is tbe prison
without walls. It is situated in a
rocky amphitheatre close to the
American river , about twenty mlleg
from. Sacramento. Tbe prisoners are
locked up at night in tbe cell hous2 ,
hut during the day they labor in the
stone quarries under the supervision
of armed guards. On the hills
surrounding the prison grounds are
watch towers , in which the guards ,
armed with Gatling guns and rifles ,
are stationed. Mounted guards are
also stationed about tbe hills.
Nearly fifteen hundred men are con
fined at Folsom and it has been tbe
practice to send the most desperate
prisoners there.

SHERIFF JUSTIFIES ACTION
UNEASY FEELING PREVAILING IN
CITY BUT SOLDIERS ABLE TO
PREVENT ANY OUTBREAKS-
Danville , 111. , July 27. Two killed
ard twenty-two wounded , the police
ttation wrecked , the county jail with
few oi1 its windows lefo uusbattered ,
tbe city in tbe hands of tbe state
ttuups and a feeling of uneasiness
uud dread prevailing everywhere ,
is tbe situation left by tbe race riots ,
of Saturday night and early this
morning. After daylight appeared
this morning , there were restless
crowds in tne streets. Hundreds of
farmers poured into the city and
cadi surrounding town continued to
swell tbe crowd.
There were many miners seen on
tbe streets. Great unrest and a
threatening attitude was reported
from Wostville , five miles away. '
Early tbe morning Wilson , the
negro ass lilant of Mrs. Burgess , was
secretly taken from the court jail-
bud was returned shortly afterwards. '
Four companies of tbe Seventh :
ILiuois Infantry arrived at 9:30 this
*
morning from Springfield where the
regiment is holding its annual en
campment. Streets were soon cle r *
ed and tbe threatening attitude of tba
crowds disappeared.
Sheritr Whitlock said today , in
ving his version of the shooting
into tbe mob :
"After I saw from the 1ail that
the mob was determined to attack J
went to tbe veranda and attempted
to talk to tbe maddened men. As I
tepped into view of the crowd two
shots were fired , one bullet striking
tbe wall back of me. I fired two'
shots into the air. Someone shouted1
that I was only bluffing and was
snooting blank cartridges. I warned-
the mob I would r. sist an attack on ,
the jail with powder and lead.
There was anot ler shot from the
mob and it surged forward. I then
fired a load from my shotgun into
their legs. This drove them back ,
but they returned a moment later
to the attack of the front of the
door.
"I was alarmed for the safety of ,
my wife and children. My wife took
a gun and said she would stand by
ine. I got her and the children outer
or the way , and then as tbe leadersi
came with tbe rail to batter down
tbe door. I shot down the rail to' '
make them drop it. Tbis accounts
for so many being shot in the bands
and arms. I fired eight or ten shots
in all.
Sheriff Whitlock had four deputies
and and three constables with him
in tbe jail guarding tbe prisoners.
He says none fired into the mob but
himself.
There are all sorts of rumors afloat
tonight and a strained situation is
noticible. But the 200 soldiery
bereit is believed , will prevent fur- '
tber outbreaks for tbe present atf
L'ast. Half of these will be on duty
all the time.
Leading citizens say tbe outbreak
has been feared for a long time , as *
bitter feelllng bas existed f r several
years between tbe negroes and a cei
tain class of white persons. A num
ber of miner outbreaks has occurred
during tbe past year.
The feeling against tbe soldiers is
noticible. The commissary depart
ment today had much trouble getting
lestaurants to serve meals. Many
refused to feed tbe soldiers There
was one clash between the guard and
a miner named Edward Liggettwho
began abusing a guard. The soldier
leveled his bayonet and Liggett , was
arrested and fined S100. Four other
companies of tbe regiment are under
arms at Springfield awaiting orders.
Crowds gathered during the day.
near the lines and cursed tbe sol
diers. They were scattered by bayo
nets in several instances. Officers of
tbe guarl do not anticipate any attack - ,
tack however. The general belief is-
that the presence of tbe troops has
suppressed the lawless element. The
sheriff and military officers , have
urged all citizens to remain off the
streets.
