A FAIR : ATTORN EY. ---. Alas! the world hos gone awry Since Cousin Lillian entered college, For she.has grown so learned I Oft tremble at her wondrous knowledge. Wheno'er I dare to woo her now She frowns that I should so annoy her. And then proclaims, with lotty brow, Her mission ls to be a lawyer. Life glides no more on golden wings, A Bunny waif from El Dorado; IVe learned how true tho poet ainjra, That coming sorrow casts its shadow. When tutti frutti lost its spell I felt-some hidden grief impended; When she declined a caramel I knew my rosy dream had ended. Ehe paints no moro on china plaques.

It was the night "rush hour" on the Brooklyn' bridge trains. More people were crowded into one of the cars at the New York terminus than had any righi1 to be there without risking suffocation. Through the side entrance to th 3 car came three young and pretty girls, swept on by the tide of humanity. The car was crowded, but that didn't mat ter. In the crush the girls were help less. They couldn't help being pn shed into the car, and an instant later ' they couldn't withstand the countermah which seated one of them, willy lilly, on the knees of an old gentleman. In the jam her two companions were thrust against this young woman, and pre vented her from rising. It was not un til the train was weil cn its trip toward Brooklyn that the crowd gare way a little and she was enabled to regain her footing. She begged the old man's par don sweetly enough, but to her friends she said not a word until the three were safely oat of the car and on the platform of the Brooklyn station. Then she freed her mind. "That's what I call an impolite'man," she declared. "Why?" said one of her companions, "I thought he behaved beautifully. He didn't say a word." "That's just the trouble," snajjped the other. "He didn't have the grace even to say,.'Keep your seat, madam.' "-New York Times._ The Sum to Get Married On. No man has a right to get married on less than ?1,500 a year. At least that is the conclusion reached the other^day at the close of a long discussion on this subject. Of course that means if the mrm is going to take for his brido a sweet and lovely young, woman, who while being happily provided for at home has not been overindulged in ex travagances, and who has the sense to know that she can hardly expect a box at the opera and lots of diamonds from the young - man who has only so lately firmly established himself in business. And even if the girl is one of those who has known what it is to be out in the world at work for herself, she can hardly be expected to marry a fellow who c?m not do as well for her as she did for her self. She has managed to get along beautifully by herself on fifty or sijety dollars a month, with plenty of nice, sen . sible clothes, a trip to the theater every now and then, and every summer, or maybe every other summer, a mee little jaunt away, somewhere, to forget the little unpleasantnesses of everyday office, life. And the way this money was to go was very nicely settled too. Tho young man won't be likely to have a home of his own to take his win some bride to, and there is the unfailing call of the landlord on the first of the month to be met, and that meeting means twenty dollars sure, and maybe more. Sixty dollars will disappear early in the action by the time the butcher and baker and candlestick maker's and some other people's monthly bills have been settled; $150 a year is placing the estimate at very modest figures for the wearing apparel of each during the year, and when all this is added up $1,260 is cared for, and something must be put away for rainy days and doctors' bids and occasional treats to the theater and the lake, and $1,500 is gonel Still there are others who think they can gUt along first rate with a good deal leis than this.-Boston Herald. Twenty Girls Enough. In the Quaker City there is a well known business and society man who pursues a strikingly original line of con duct In his business he is quiet, reg ular and industrious, and particularly prides himself upon the neatness and accuracy which characterized his books of account. During the social season ?Je flits about from entertainment to en tertainment, frequently attending-operas and playhouses, always having with him some one of a score of girls to whom he pays more or less attention. When asked why he had so many girls he said: "Oh, all girls talk as they write-very much alike, but still there is more variety in twenty than in one. Besides, I keep a regular set of books at home in which I enter every cent I spend on them, and it affords me considerable - amusement. For instance, I charge cost of theater tickets, flowers, supper and carriage hire, and then credit it with the amount of pleasure I had-'Passable time en joyed,' 'Enjoyed the evening hugely,' etc. The girls who afford me the most enjoyment receive the greater number of invitations, so I think I may fairly say tl)at I seek relaxation and piv~?ure in the same way that I attend to my business-on a system."-Philadelphia Press. _ Odd Custom In Brazil. A woman lately returned from Brazil tells of the curious nomenclature of the streets of Para. They are Biblical or commemorative of some event in the Brazilian history. It seemed to her quite irreverent to be told that a desira ble location was "at the corner of St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evan gelist streets." She went with her uncle, who was on business, to dine at the house of a wealthy merchant. Everything was very gorgeous and lavish in South American style, but on leavrng-she was amazed, to have her hospitable host say to her, "If you have any washing send it here." It is a custom there, it seems, for wealthy households to take in laundry work as jn employment for their large retinues ?f servants.-Cor. Utica Herald. "Old Physics" Crawford. General S. W.

' How a Crowd of Country Lada Spoiled a Nicely Planned Feast-Mysterious Dis appearance of a Roast Turkey - The Flight of a Tender Morsel. A .gentleman noted for hie originality made the following improvement to the old?ying, "There's many a slip 'twixt the cupsjid the saucer," the other day in speaking of a disappointment a friend of his had experienced in losing his din ner through missing a train-a dinner to which he had been invited and at which he had been selected to respond to one of the toasts. The simple missing of the dinner was more than set off at the old General ' Shields hotel, on the West Chester pike. A company of twelve Philadelphia^ in terested in real estate developments had gone ont in the country for the purpose of looking about for profitable invest ments, and had sent word to the proprie tor of the old hostelry of their coming and ordered an old fashioned turkey din ner to be ready at 6 o'clock. The order put the proprietor in his beet humor and the entire establishment into' an unusual flurry of exciting prepara tion. The hostler hurried to the', nearest farmhouse, where bs : purchased, thai finest turkey to be had,, and. carried it back to the hotel in triumph. Taking it into the stable he dispatched and plucked it in great haste. Everything was excitement in the large kitchen from the time the order was announced until late in the afternoon, when the last dish was ready to be carried to the dining room. The news of the gentlemen coming spread through the village, and every one felt duty bound to go to the hotel and see them, and none took a greater interest in the affair than the boys., They had finished their chores unusually, early and wero promptly on hand long; before the hour of serving the rapper.; Of the entire community none felt his! personal importance more than Dave] Peters, the colored waiter. Dave was of portly build and prided himself in his appearance, and if he had] a hatred for' one thing moro than any other, that thing was a claw hemmer, coat, which he said belonged ;tp.^soeieiyi gentlemen and not to a waiter, conse quently he held to the i)T? ^asbio??dl roundabout jacket. Just before the; time for announcing that dinner -waa' ready , a number of the village boys stood peering through one of the dining room windows, watching.Dave arrange the: different dishes on the table and ad miring the display made by the twelve napkins in as many cut glass goblets. After viewing the effects- bf the! table with a countenance beaming with, satisfaction, Dave strutted toward the door and disappeared by descending the stairs leading to the kitchen, and a few moments later reappeared, carrying on a large dish the turkey, done to a lovely brown and beautifully garnished with carved roses, sprays of parsley and cel ery tops. Walking toward tha table he found that no room had been left for the central and chief adornment of the table. Taking the situation in at a glance, Dave saw his mistake, and hur riedly set the dish down upon the broad sill of the window through which the boys were peering, and began rearrang ing the table to make room for the turkey. No sooner had he turned his back to the window than one of the boys softly and quietly raised the sash, while an other grabbed the turkey from the dish and fled across the hotel yard toward the old stable, followed by his compan ions. After making room for the large dish Dave turned around, stepped to the window, raised the dish and placed it in its position in the center of the table, never noticing that the bird had flown. Going to the sideboard he picked up the supper bell and gave it a violent ring, thus notifying the host that dinner was ready. "This way, gentlemen; this way, please," spoke the proprietor to his guests; "step this way, gentlemen," leading them through a narrow passage from the bar to the dining room. No sooner had he reached the dining room than his gaze fell upon the empty plate; when he exclaimed, "David, where- in the name of General Jackson is that turkey?" .. Poor Davel Never was a man taken more by surprise. When for the first time he noticed the broken platter bis broad smile vanished. In an instant bis jaw fell and his large eyeballs stared most frightfully, while his whole frame shook with a terrible tremor. All he could say in reply to the abrupt and em phatic question was, "Dont know, sir; it was dar, it was dar," and hurrying to the kitchen stairs he shouted down, "Yon, Phceby, whar in debTs dat tori key?" "Go erlong now, yen's got it np. dar long ergo. " The disappearance waa soi only a mystery to the waiter and cook,' bnt to the proprietor as. well, who in an apologetic manner asked the guests to repair again to the barroom while a thorough investigation could be mad?. Every ooo in the house, ??eroding iii? hostler, waa questioned and croea ques tioned, yet 'rift light could be thrown on the mystery. After wasting an-nour in trying to find the missing bird, and af ter a consultation with the guests, fried ham and eggs were rabsti tuted for the turkey. It was not till two hours later, when the guests were about to depart, that th? proprietor learned what had become of the turkey. One of the boys, more bold than his companions, carno back to the i hotel to see how the joke worked, and thinking the story of the bird's disap pearance too good to keep,, told it to one of the men that were loitering about tho outside of the hotel. The next morning the picked bones of the turkey were found scattered about on the ground back of the stable, where the boys had, after carving it with their pocketknives,- greedily devoured \. the well cooked bira.-Phfladelphia Times. Scott Enjoyed Being Lionized. Sir Walter Scott is an example of a great man, who, so far as we can judge, enjoyed paying the penalties of bis greatness, even in his hour of death. He was great enough, but then he was that kind of a man, and the circumstances among which he lived were favorable. That was before the day of the penny post, of the .electric telegraph, of rail ways and of the interviewer, and in his prime he lived at Abbotsford, which is equivalent nowadays to saying that he lived at Joppa. He seems to have been singularly free from the penalties cf greatness, which have enormously in creased since the Wizard of the North went home, and such of them as came in his way he seems to have heartily en joyed. Ee appears now and then to have relished being turned into a raro show, and to being pointed at wherever he went as Walter Scott. Indeed this be ing pointed at seems to have been rel-' ished by many men whose greatness was undoubted. Thackeray seems some times almost to have resented not beiaf pointed at.-All the Tear Bound.

How many persons know that New York city has a dialect all ita own, and one that it maintains in purity by teach ing it in the public schools? Many per sons have commented cn the precision with which a Nsw Yorker caa spot a stranger the instant the stranger under takes tb pronounce the name of the prin cipal streets in the town. We call it Broadway, emphasizing the last sylla ble very strongly. It appears to be quite a trick to do thia, and it is evidently an unnatural pronunciation, for we notice that the very great majority of stran gers say Broa-wa. So we spot them on the instant and-ask them from what part of the country they hail', just to show them that there is something about them that is not citified, and to set them puzzling about whether it is in the shape of their hat, or the style of their shoes, or what it ia. People from the south betray the fact by calling our Houston street "Hewston street," as that name is pronounced from Texas to the Chesapeake, but we play as strange a trick with another name, for we call Coenties slip "Quincy slip." As no one would do that naturally, we detect strangers by'hat pronunciation. The name of Hoboken is another that we trifle with,, calling it Habbueken. Bat in ways and bywords other than these I caa pi ok ont a Hew Yorker any where that he and I may meet, whether lt be ia Boston or in the Hooky moun tains; I can do this by noticing how he pronounces th? "ur" sound in such words as birth, bird,' earth, heard^etc. All the rest of the country pronounce those -rords bnrth, btrrd, urth and hurd. Not so the New Yorker. He is care fully taught not to do so in all the pub lic schools, as well as by his parents at home. The queer little twist that enters so largely into our language in marring one of the sardinal Bounds that compose it is thus expressed by ovr tongues; ur-yith is how we, say earth, bur-yid .is how we say bird. We say hur-yid for heard and mur-yid-der for murder. All of us who were born in New York have heard the publia school teachers in sis ting upon this.' peculiar twist, commanding the pupils to put on the trademark as fight ing men' once wore tte coat of arms of their feudal masters. Most of us, too, have heard nies, careful little girls on the way home from school correcting careless companions by insisting that "you mussint say burd; you must say it nicely, bur-yid." Ot all th? senseless and unmusical and bad things that are done to English that one of the worst, because ono expects hear a language at its best in the greatest city of a country, and thither foreigners repair to study English and then perhaps to go back home and teach it with a whole lot of little tricks like that in their heads, to be solemnly taught and scattered, until no one knows where the mischief will end. Of course I do not want the reader to understand that Very nice people murder the language in these or any other ways, but the great masses of New Yorker?, those who get their learning in the public schools and whose tongues were trained in old New York homes of the middle class-those are the victims of this most peculiar habit.-Cor. Providence JournaL Stooping Shoulders. Apropos of round shoulders, I decided the other day a? I sat in a great public gathering, drawn from all parts of the land, that what we need most is not more currency, or lees taxes, or a new banking system, but a law to enforce sitting np straight. Take 100 Americans-men and women, and you could not find enough good shoulders among them to make up a table at -whist. This defect of car riage used to be thought peculiar to the rural districts. It is not so. City peo ple show it less, but this is due to the cunning of their tailors, and not to any virtue of their own. ' I am opposed to meddlesome legisla tion, but I should welcome the appoint ment of officials who would go about and compel the populace to sit and stand erect, as the old worthies of the Puritan meeting house compelled the congrega tion to keep awake.

A FORTUNE FOUND IN SOAP. How a Brakeman Discovered a Swede's Hoarded Gold. Mr. Runey, in conversation with a number of travelers, told the following story, which he says actually occurred in his presence while en route on a Great Northern freight train near Morris, Minn.: I boarded a freight train at Han cock, (he began) en route to Brecken ridge. There were about forty hobos on board the box cars. I arranged with three brakemen to make the rounds and see if they couldn't be made to put np for their ride. I acted the part of the conductor, while the trainmen followed ont my instructions. We went from one car to another until we had visited all but one. Few failed to comply with our request, but showed hostility, and would doubtless have taken the advan tage of our small number had I not pro vided myself with a gun, which pro truded in full view from my coat pocket The last car we visited was partially loaded with lime, and between the bar rels we found two Swedes who handled the American language in the most hu morous manner. We informed them they would necessarily have to pay for their ride or get off at the next station, to which the spokesman replied: "Vwe don't gat no muny. Vwe bane com from Kort Docota, und vorfc purty hard and gats no muny." ' "Where do you want to go?" subed a brakeman. . "Vwe vant tu KO to Mainopolis." "You are beaded in the wrong direc tion," returned'the-brakeman. "Val, vwe go tu Brekenridgc und vwe den go ast. Vwe no mane dare ho ba. gude faller und let us rade.1' The brakeman was not satisfied with the Swedes' statements that they were moneyless, so they were searched. While the searching was going on on? of the Swedes said again: - "Vwe don't gate nu muny. Sopuse vwe ly 'bout laddie ting liko date?" The brakeman, being satisfied that there was no money on their persons, was about to withdraw from .the car when^he discovered a small bundlo in the corner of the'car tied'upwith a handkerchief. The bundle was ex amined. A pair of old socks and sev eral rags wero tightly wrapped around a piece of soap about three by six inches in size. The brakeman said he guessed he would take the soap anyway, as he could use it himself. Here the Swedes made a robust protest, saying, "No, vwe don't vant you tu take dote sope." "What good is the soap to you?" asked the brakeman. ""Vw? vant da sope for vash widbafur vwe gate in Main op o Hs." "What do you expect to do in Minne applis?" said the brakeman. "Vwe tank vwe ville -gate' leadle vork tu du dare, as a ba prutty gud? tonn." The brakeman then said he would do the fair thing and only take half the soap, to which the Swedes begged ear nestly for him to leave'the soap. The brakeman took the cake over his knee and. broke it through the center, and lol to the amazement of all, a twenty dol lar gold piece rolled put. . By this time the Swedes were nearly wild, and their ejaculations were side splitting in the extreme. r The. soap was then cut, into bits and $200 in gold coin, consisting of twenties, . tens and fives, taken out - The Swedes had ; adopted this . Estrange method of safely disguising their possessions} ; but as^nwortune had it, their novel idea failed. It is needless to say that the /brakeman appropriated' one of 'th? shin ing pieces .for.his own use, to the heart rending oUsmaybf thejsons of Sweden, and departed for the "caboose.- Fargo Argus._- .
