HIS PURPOSE HIS PLEASURE.
Tae
Perfect Happlaee Achieved by
Famous Benefactor.
"It is only a poor kind of happiness
that can ccmcfrom thinkingonly about
our own pleasure."
It was one of the most thoughtful of
tne English women of our day who
said this, and it is one of her truest
utterances, but verr few people prac
tically believe the saying. Yet occa
sionally we read of lives whose whole
existence shows that the- idea of their
own personal happiness entered very
little into their thoughts.
In 1803 a young man of seventeen
came to New York to make his way in
the world. He was honest and in
dustrious, and very soon was able to
support himself. And to lay up some
thing from his earning.':. He felt the
neea of :i better education, which his
poverty had denied him. "Itr. God
gives "me wealth," he thought,
"other young men in future
years. shall not feel the need of
the means of culture as I do now."
The thought became his purpose, and
h:i purpose and the fulfilment of it
were his enjoyment. He became a glue
manufacturer, and his glue was the
best and the cheapest that could be ob
tained. Later, he built rolling mills,
blast furnaces and steel works in vari
ous parts of the United States, and in
course of time became a millionaire.
The years in which he was accumulat
ing this fortune were years of hard
work, with little of what young oeople
would call pleasure in thcni. But in
all that time no business transaction
was over entered into by him which
was not thoroughly upright, while his
name became synonymous with sim
ple, direct honesty, and he found
the highest pleasure in that
But in tficse years his purpose
strengthened a plan by which his
great fortune was to be of use to the
people of New York. II's own wants
and those of his family were simple in
character, :.nd he cared little for the
amusements whichhnany rich men esti
mate so highly. He had gained a great
fortune, and for a purpose. When he
was past sixty years old he put into
actual form the dream he had from his
youth. The Cooper Institute is the re
sult of all those years of gathering and
planning, and the thousands of men
and women who have been trained
there for lives of honor and usefulue-s
are the witnesses to the success of his
schemes for the uolifting of humanity.
Probably no private citizen of this
century has won the love of so many
people as did Peter Cooper. Rich and
poor spoke his name with reverence,
and whenever his kind face with its
fringe of hair was seen, people who
would not have moved aside for a
Prince made room for h:m.
Years came and went, and the Coop
er Institute, under the direction of its
beaeficent founder. w;is constantly ex
tending the .sphere of its influence.
Not only his own c'.ty. which was so
dear to him, but the whole country felt
the impulse which Peter Cooper,
through the Institute and through his
other charities, imparted to it.
At last the busv. kindling life ended, 1
and all New xork was in mourning.
It was a long life, lasting ninety-two
years, none of which were spent in
service of self, but all in that ot hu
manity, and thus fragrant with good
deeds.
Poter Cooper had placed his own
happiness as last to be attained. Yet
no man ever experienced purer happi
ness than he to who it came unsought
On that April day in 18SS when his
body rested in All Souls Church, three
thousand pupils of the Cooper Institute
came reverently to lay their roses upon
the coflin of their benefactor, and in the
heart of cadi one must have been im
pressed the belief that the happiuess
Winch lasts is not that which aims only
at securing one's own pleasure.
His purpose of life was his enjoy
ment. Youth1 s Compa n ion.

the reef. Should a vessel be observed
in the toils of the dangerous reef, the
fleet would be seen making all speed

prizes were surticiently great to excite
the most unremitting vigilance. . Cer

small boy who carred a rusty
sabre "at a shoulder." By his
permission, our party, consisting of
tive able-bodied men armed with shot
guns, landed. The guard becoming
satisfied that our intents were charit
able," we were graciously shown a
tract of several acres of recently cleared
ground on which were growing rows of
pineapple tops. Here was the lirst ex
periment in the culture of pineapples in
Florida. The success of this venture
was so deelded that since then, we are
told, many of the keys are quite de
voted to "this enterprise. The pines
grown here prove to be of superior
flavor. The s;-onge business :s yet one

What a delight is the lirst visit to a
tropical town the first sensations' of a
balmy atmosphere born of a continued
.trade-wind, the characteristic "trade"
that moves so quietly during the winter
season-Jn4his semi-tropical region, and

to recommend itself unto our gentle
senses. We vividly remember the de

visitor, the then inevitable Venus in
parti-colored turban, passing the deli
cate. .refreshng cocoanut water and
curacoa, and the grateful services of
Cato, with fan in hand, are things of
the past
The cocoanut before its white meat
has become solid, is jelly-like, and this
in all stages from the nearly liquid
form is esteemed a luxury, and served
at luncheon or to evening callers dur
ing the wanner season. The cocoanuts
will be observed to be in all stages
upon the tree, from the beautiful corn
colored flowering group, resembling
large tassels of corn, to the perfect
nuts, which require constant care to
prevent their dropping on the heads
of stranger sojourners. Those "na

stinctively cast an eye above when
-passing, liie glory of Key West is
the abundant distribution of the cocoa
palm. The young and grandly flowing
fronds and leaflets, as well as the tall
trunks, with their graceful umbrella
tops, contribute to an unaccustomed
eye a scene of marvelous beauty.
There is a cur.'ous ound, simulating
falling rain, produced by the gentle
movements of the leaflets over each
other; this when but little air is .stir

semi-tropical towns be cumulative, a
wondrous aspect would be the result:
but the recurrence at certain periods
of heavy gales, amounting to hurri
canes, strips nearly everything of veg
etable form.
Besides many plants and trees indi
genous to semi-tropical regions others
of more pronounced tropical culture
have been introduced. The Geiger tree
is perhaps the most attractive, on ac
count of its large showy red flowers,
that look more appropriate to a low
plant than a tree, and .ts large showy
leaves. Captain Geier. an "old c tisren
of Key West in the earlier times, and
a noted wrecker, bro ight this tree to
Key West from Cuba: and, no one be
ing sufficiently acquainted with botanv
to name it. it was called as above. It
is the Cordia scbestina Linn. In the
Jeup collection of the trees of America
there is a good example of this tree,
and a line pa'nting ot its leaves and
flowers. At the period of our lirst visit
in 18M, several trees had recently been
introduced, notably the royal palm.

grand examples of this tree on the

of nearly equal interest It requires
about seven 3'ear.s for the tree to reach
the period of bearing fruit We
chanced to remain in the reef region
just long enough to see the fruit comn

old residents of Key West are embel
lished by the date palms, whose thor

AN INTERESTING DECISION.
The Government Not ltespontlble ft-r
Packages Placed on Top of Mall-Boxe.
A very peculiar case cams up before
United States Commissioner E. L
Gregory yesterday afternoon. Abou
three o'clock a young man namec
Lawrence, having a package to mail,
laid it on the top of the mail-box at the
corner of Cherry and Union streets.
Shortly afterward he was standing
near and saw a negro wan whose
name was subsequently learned to be
Turner, take the package and start off.
He at once followed and stopped him.
and Detectives Han'fin and Price ap
pearing about that t.me. the negro was
arrested, and at four o'clock arraigned
before the Commissioner on the charge
of interfering w.th the Un.ted States
mail.
Capta'n Withers. Superintendent of
the free delivery department of the
Post-office, was summoned to give testi
mony in regard to the law, and upon
this tet"mony Turner was discharged.
According to the law and all rulings
upon the subject, the package had not
been mailed, and-in cousequonce Turn
er was not amenable fo the United
States law. but the value of this pack
age being small, it only containing a
rubber stamp, the prosecution did not
care to push the matter.
A word in regard to this practice of
placing packages and papers on the top
of mail boxes will not be amiss, and
probably prove of service to the gen
eral public not posted in the matter.
Letter-carriers arc positively instructed
not to take such papers or packages
whi'i it interferes with the delivery of
first-class mail, and as they are nearly
loaded with as much mail' as they can
well carry, packages thus left often re
main there until the following day.
Their taking or leaving them is dis
cretionary. Letters, papers or pack
ages are not mailed and under the pro
tection of the United States postal laws
unless they are placed within the mail
box or in the Post-office. People often
leave valuable packages in this manner,
laboring under the impression that the
Government is responsible for them.
Such, however, is not the case, and if
stolen, the person is only liable under
the State laws. Nashville Union.
A Singular Reptile.
A snake of a very rare kind is now
at the Smithsonian Institute. It was
captured near the'famous Buck Horn
Wall, -on the line of the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad, near Deer Park, Aid.
The peculiarity of the snake is that it
can. and does whistle and sing 1-ke a
young mocking bird. In general ap
pearance it is use the ordinary snake,
except its head is shaped somewhat
like a pug dog. In length f is tour
feet long, and the largest part of its
body is four and a quarter inches
in circumference. When it whistles
or sings it makes a series of jumps
like a frog. The head snake
professor of the Smithson:an institution
is now at Wood's Hole, Mass., and it
will probably be sent there for his ex
amination and classification. It is in
shape and color altogether different
from any of the African singing snakes,
and besides issues a louder and more
harmonic sound or whistle than is re
corded of any of the classes of snakes
that are found iu the East Indies. A
similar character of a snake is said in
thcbooks to be frequently seen on the
island of Sumatra. So far this is the
lirst singing or whistling snake that
has been found in this country. The
man who caught it supposed he was
chasing a young mocking bird. Wash

1e Speealatfaa' Which Taagfct Mr. Willow
to Couflae lite Koers'a aa Brato to
Calico and Xaalla.
Sam Willow was a prosperous; dry
goods merchant His store on Four
teenth avenue was the coder of fashion
in that part- of the city. However dull
his neighbors might be his store was
crowded from morning 'until evening,
and the cries of "Cash !" followed
each other so closely and continuously
that it sounded from the street like a
ftublic school on examination day. So
ong as Mr. Willow devoted his'entire
attention to the dry-goo:ls business be
prospered. Owing to his excellent
judgment in the line of calicoes, mus
lins and hosiery he was always able to
dispose of his purchases at a handsome
profit But Mr. Willow had one un
fortunate habit. He was restless and
ambitious. He never learned to let
well enough alone. He was continu
ally investing his surplus wealth in
outside speculations, which were with
out exception disastrously unprofit
able. "So you think of mortgaging the
bouse to raise fifty thousand dollars,
do you. Sunison !'" observed Mrs. Wil
low to him one morning recently.
"Yes, my dear," responded MY. Wil
low, with ardor. I have a sure
thing."
" Sure thing ?" returned Mrs. Wil
low, incredulously. "Do you recol
lect the sure thing you had last year?
It was in wheat, I believe. You got
your pointer from a man who was get
ting up a corner.
"Yes, my dear," answered Mr. Wil
low, "but th is not a speculation at
all. It is as sure as taxes."
"Is it in the dry-goods line ?"
" No. not exactly, but it will pay
better than any dry-goods store since
Stewart died."
"What is it ?" inquired Mrs. Willow,
with more curiosity than she had yet
exhibited.
"That's right," replied Mr. Willow,
illogically but enthusiastically. "I
new you would agree with me. It Is
a jrold mine."
"A gold mine, Samson Willow?"
"Yes, my dear, a veritable golcouda,
a bonanza." We will be princes, both
of us. Sure thing. Secret No one
knows of it but myvlf and one other
man. 'Fraid he'll ;o to Jay Gould or
Vanderbilt with it if I don't give him
my answer to-day."
"Let me hear more about it," said
Mrs. Willow, excitedly.
"This man arrived here last night
from Montreal. He came that wa- be
cause he was afraid it would excite
suspicion if he came direct from Ari
zona." "Arizona?"
"Yes. my dear. That's where the
mine is. He discovered it while he was
prospecting for lead. No one knows
there is any gold there. He picked up
a boulder of sol d gold, worth fifteen
thousand dollars if it's worth a penny.
He says there is lots more of it there.
I took it in my hands. It is heavy
and solid. He wants me to go into
gartnership with him. If I give him
m fty thousand dollars he will give me
a ha'lf interest and the nugget We
will use the money to buy machinery
and develop the mine."
"Let me sec the gold, and if it is
true I will sign the mortgase," ex
claimed the old lady with decision.
"You shall see it. this very day," re
turned Mr. Willow.
And so she did. The next day the
mortgage was recorded. The gold was
promptly transferred and the lucky
miuer went to Boston to buy the ma
chinery. Mr. Willow was ra an ecstacy
of joy. He could hardly wait to sell
out his store and visit his wonderful
purchase.
Last week he bought back his store
at a loss of twenty thousand dollars
and rented his former house. He will
never leave the dry goods business
again. The cause of Lis change of
mind is explained in the following item
which appeared in a local paper a few
days after the sale:
"The large nugget labeled 'Austra
lian Gold,' valued at fifteen thousand
dollars, stolen from the Geological
Museum in Montreal by burglars, turns
out to be merely a plated lead facsimile
of a celebrated nugget found some
years ago." Al I'. Graphic.
A DIETARV BLUNDER.
Sir Ileurjr Tlioiuptou so Denominates the
I of Concrete Substance in water.
Sir Henrj- Thompson writes: "Most
people might naturally be aware that
the primary object of drink is to satisfy
the thirst which means a craving for
the supply of water to the tissues the
only fluid they demand and utilize when
the sensation in question is felt Water
is a solvent of solids, and is more pow
erful to this end when employed free
from admixture with any other solid
material. It may be flavored, as in tea
and otherwise, without impairing its
solvent power, but when mixed with
any concrete matter, as in chocolate,
thick cocoa, or even with milk, its
capacity for dissolving the very qual
ity for which it was demanded is in
greater part lost So plentiful is nutri
ment in solid food that the very last
place where we should seek that quality
is the drink which accompanies the or
dinary meal. Here at least we might
hone to be free from an exhortation to
nourish ourselves, when desirous only
to allay thirst or moisten our solid
morsels with a draught of fluid. Not
so; there are even sonic persons who
must wash down their ample slices oi
roast beef with draughts of new milk
an unwisely deviled combination even
for those of active habit but for men
and women whose lives are little occu
pied by exercise, it is one of the great
est dietary blunders which can be per
petrated." One would think it was
generally known that milk is a pecul
iarly nutritivo fluid, adapted for the
fast growing and fattening young
mammal admirable for such, for our
small children; also serviceable to those
whose muscular exertion is great, and
when it agrees with the stomach to
those who can not take meat For us
who have long ago achieved our full
growth and can thrive on solid fare,
it is altogether superfluous and mostly
mischievous as a drink." The. Lancet.

simple ways of the fathers. I appre

Let us do all this. Then, you see. the

A COLONY OF EXILES.
Sandy Point, the Chilian Penal Statloa Its
Location, Surroundings aad Besowrcea.
Sandy Point is a Chilian penal sta
tion, and a large portion of the inhabit
ants arc exiles. When we were there
the war was still going on between
Chili and Peru, and among the prison
ers were two Americans, who had been
captured in an attempt to blow up the
Huascar with torpedoes. They came
very near being executed, but were
finally exiled. The Governor himself
was in a state of semi-exile, and found
life much more agreeable in Sandy
Point thau he would have done in Val
paraiso. Gold was discovered several
years aro in the mountains about two
miles from the village, and a quantity
taken out by panning, but at that time
there was no excitement about it I
saw considerable in the form of grains
and small nuggets, the largest of which
was-about the size of an English walnut,
and had been made into a watch charm.
It was thought that some of the mines
would prove to be very productive, if
properly worked, but no one there
seemedto have the money or energy to
develop them. There is also a vein of
good coal about three miles from the
village. It had been worked some a
few years previously, and a railroad
had been built from the mine to the
wharf, but after war broke out with
Peru it was neglected, the whasf went
to ruin and the railroad was destroyed.
The only coal to be had there was
brought from England and a good price
was charged for it. We coaled shin
and were obliged to pay nineteen dol
lars and fifty cents per ton and deliver
it ourselves. The timber on the moun
tains does not grow to a great height,
but is of fine quality, and tne trunks are
of large diameter.
During the summer months it does
not rain at all, but every winter a large
quantity of snow and rain falls, so tl j.
there are no dry years. The pi:, is
furnish excellent grazing, and the .oil
will yield good crops. There is every
reason to believe that it will become a
good grain-producing country. I had
read much about the great size of the
Patagonian Indians, and thought the
reports must be greatly exaggerated,
but I found that they were true. None
of the bucks that I saw were under six
feet in height, and they were broad in
proportion to their height The
squaws are about five feet six or seven
inches, and are heavy, but not fleshy.
Like all other Indians, they are very
fond of the white man's fire-water.

Premises.
This word is from the Latin "prami
to.
sent in advance. In law the
literal meaning of the word "premises"'
is "statements previously made." but
the word is now commonly used as
signifying a house and its surround
ings. In this sense it had a singular
origin. In a legal deed of conveyance
it was customary at the commence
ment of the document to give a formal
description, at great length, of the
property to which the deed related.
Where in the same deed it was neces
sary again to refer to the property
the" words "the premises," in the sense
of "that which has already been de
scribed," saved useless repetition aad
weie well understood. By some extra
ord'nary change, the phrase "the prem
ises" came to signify, not the descrip
tion of the property, but the property
itself, and in this sense the word has
now become incorporated with the
English language, and has been used
in legislative acts relating to or describ
ing lands. The dictionaries have no
reference to this misuse of the word.

The following is a picture of life in
Afrca as portrayed by Consul Peter
Strickland, of Senegal: Drunkenness
to a greater or lesser extent seems to

for their employers is the fact that
their -crviec- can not be depended on
.so long as they have the means in

fore they recover from these debauches,
and the" interests of those who are
obliged to employ thi-m sutler accord

drinking hab.ts. is also the fact that

of tie iuost com ron of things among
the so-called Chr.stiau n-itivcs of S'ene
gambia, to see children, brothers and
s'stors, through their mother, but all
having different fathers, thus com
pletely reversing the Mormon custom,
where chiMrcn are ofteu brothers and
sisters through their father but not
through their mothers. Scores of chil
dren also d e through neglect ex
posure, and diseases, for which the
drunken habits of their mothers are
d lcct'.y responsible. It docs seem as
though our Government must be culpa
ble iu granting drawbacks on rum and
alcohol which are exported by the
ship-load, to debauch and destroy the
unrclh-ct ng inhabitants of uncivilized
countries. It is my deliberate opinion
that rum in Africa is at present doing
as much mischief as the slavo trade
ever did, aud that it is a shame for a
civilized country like, the United States

letter, ".f all of them with their hands
tied behind'them. and were driven into
a corral like so many cattle, where
they were g vca un forms and runs and

of little interest to tho Indian on which
side he fights, for ha knows npth'ng
about the political troubles of the coun

happens to capture him, like a mule or
a horse, until bo is shot or runs away
They are obedient, tractable and en
