—about half a gill in a oologne bottle—
and presented it on a small fire-shovel.
The neighbor, thanking her in a pro
fusion of complimentary French, re

again more dismally thau before.
“Are you worse?” called the lady
through the shutters.
“I am vara bad,” piped the sufferer,
in auguished falsetto.
“Perhaps a mustard plaster might re
lieve," suggested Miss Coppersmith.
‘•Per’ape,”' moaned the Frenchman.
Miss Coppersmith, who was really a
tender-hearted soul, instantly rushed to
her tiny kitchen, and soon approached
the window again with the piaster be-
two souo dishes. Placing them on the
shovel sue waved it before her
bor’s window.
“The plaster," she said.
The plaster was taken with
thanks.

In fact, Cornelia is no longer genteel,
but she is what is better, exceedingly

place to which peddlers were not ad

He had come to overflow with gratitude.
He declared that he should have ex

her delightful mustard-plaster, and he
ended by a narra ive of his own life, his

“The Blver Putumayo is one of the
many which run from the eastern slope
of the Colombian Andes aliout wiiioh
little is knotyn. Rising in the moan
taiuous districts of the upper altitudes
of Pasto, iu the State of Cauoa, it runs
nearly 1,000 miles, receiving in its
course the tributary waters of more than
thirty streams. Its banks are partially
known, but the world is yet in complete
ignorance of the secrets contained in
the immense territory it drains. It
serves as the boundary between Colom
bia and Equador, and Colombia and
Peru, while the extreme confines of
Brazil run up to its month—1,200 me
tres in width where it rolls into the
Amazon—where the Brazilians are anx
ious to seize auother slice of territory
to add to that vast empire whose pro
ducts, population, and above all, pro
gress are not on a par with its ambition
to obtain possession of the soil of its
neighbors. In past times this same
spirit of aggrandizement existed, and
the Spanish authorities were so well
aware of the fact that they kept
garrison ninety miles from the moutii
of the Putmayo, which was always pre -
pared to prevent the Portuguese as
cending the river in order to reach the
southern districts of the former vice-
royalty of Santa Fe de Bogota.
“Within the past few years adyeutu
rous residents in Pasto have endeavored
to turn the riches of the river to ac
count. • It is navigable even in the up
per part by canoes. After frequent
petitioning, Congress passed a law per
mitting the entrance of merchandise by
the river free of all duty, with the re
sult that some portion of the imports
came by way of the Atlantic, were oar
riod 2,000 miles up the Amazon by
steamer, and thence by launch and ca
noe unt.l they reached a market, within
800 miles, as the crow files, of the Pa
cific Ocean. Messrs. Reyes were the
first to engage in this enterprise, and,
by treating the Indsaus well along the
route, have been establishing a very
fair trade, exporting ivory nuts, india-
rubber, vanilla, cascarilla, sarsaparilla,
and other raw products iu return for
the goods brought in by them. Their
success induced a youug merchant of

opportunity offers. Re^ZH oTZ
Homebody was asking a Hartford man
how It happened tbat Mark Twain wrote
and published so little nowadays. •• He
writes f s much as ever,” was the reply;
“ but hts barometer is out of order, and
he does not know what to publish; so he
publishes nothing.”
“What in the world has hi* barometer
to do with his literary activity ♦"
“ Hut barometer is a man-servant named
Jacob, who is remarkable for bis deficient
sense of humor. Mark never can Judge of
the meat of his own performance. Years
ago he fell into the habit of testing every
thing that be wrote by observing its effect
upon Jacob. If Jacob listened to the
leading ot the article, Jest, or itorv with
unmoved couateuance, or mettntVy^. ;
in a perfunctory way, Mark w<tf J . —
aud sent the manuscript to tlf printer.
But if Jacob laughed outrigir . .*.ave
any other indication of genuine trierriraent,
the humorist concluded that the stuff was
hopeless and withheld it from publication.
He regarded Jacob as infallible and came
to lean upon his Judgment.
“About three years ago, ft appears,
Jacob learned for the first time from some
outsider that his master was a professional
humorist. He felt greatly honored that
he should have been chosen habitually to
enjoy the first freshness of every new’pro-
d notion of genius. He did not exactly
understand why he should have been thus
chosen, but felt In a vague way that a
great humorist must need sympathy and
appreciation, and must naturally look for
it to the fellow being nearest at hand. He
also felt that he bad perhaps failed to be
at all times sufficiently appreciative. So
Jacob kept his discovery to himself as tar
his master was concerned, and resolved to
be as appreciative in the future as anybody
could desire.
One day Mark called J ’.cob in and
read him a sketch entitled The Cow and
the Lightning-rod Man.’ In composing it
Mark had flattered himself that he had
struck a pretty fine streak. To his amaze
ment Jacob put back his head and roared.
With a half suppressed ejaculation Mark
dashed the manuscript into the waste
basket. I hea Mark waited six weeks or
two months to collect his forces (for he is
never precipitate in anything he does) and
achieved a romance called ‘How I Bounced
the Baby * He summoned Jacob and
watched his face with obvious anxiety as
he read the touching narative. Jacob's
mirth was painful to observe. Mark tore
up the story and then tore his hair.
“ Two or three experiments of this sort,
with unvarying results, persuaded Mark
Twain that the malaria, which he has been
dreading ever since it began to ‘ creep up
the Connecticut Valley, had re.ujhad him
at last and destroyed bis poweri of useful
ness. He fell into a settled ijelancholy.

One of the wildest stampedes that ever
took place from Alder Gulch, Montana,
was caused by the simplest thing one could
well imagine. It was in 'ti. Everything
was flush. It was neuly two thousand
miles to the nearest railroad and settlements
In between were scattering. Now, it is
characteristic of human nature to sigh
after the unattainable, lu this particular
case fresh pork was the unattainable.
There was plenty of bacon and pickled
pork, but no fresh pork. Cariboo Tim
was the only one in camp who ever owned
a pig. Tim was a very visionary sort of a
cuss, who whs not satisfied with working
along the gulch at fifteen or twenty dollars
a day, but was eternally searching through
, ’• a ountniiui in that region for a place
where he could gather up gold by the
shovelful. One day Tim returned to camp
to learn that his pig had (soaped fron its
pen under his bunk. U0 did not tarry an
hour, but, packing all his provisions, start
ed on the pig's trail up the mountains.
Straightway two or three hundred men
decided to follow Tim, supposing that he
had struck it magnificently rich. The
leadet of the stampede kept track of him
—one maa keeping him in sight, a second
keeping the first in sight and so on until
the gang stretched back for half a mile:
behind this came the rabble. Tim seemed
to know where he was going and kept
steadily on, This but served to confirm
his followers that he had already made the
rich find and was returning to it. When
uight came Tim camped. His followers
did likewise, a halt dozen’ men being de
tailed to take turns standing guard, so
that he might not slip away iu the night.
Early next morning the march was resum
ed. On ward went Tim, unconscious of
the men on his trail, for no noise was
made, the necessity of silence having been
impressed upon all tbe stampeders. From
camp they passed down tne range to the
Madison and on toward Noiwegian gulch.
Again they camped and again were guards
stationed. The night passed quietly. Tbe
first of the stampeders to awake m tbe
morning crawled up the’ hillside to a
point wherehe could see Cariboo Tim’s
camp, aud looking over saw that tne
guards were asleep and Tim gone. The
guards and the remamdor of the stamped
ers were awakened. A scene of great ex-
oitemeut followed. The guards were
cursed up hill and down for their neglect,
which the poor fellows took with meek
submission
The gang now started hurriedly in the
direction which Cariboo Tim had been
following on the previous day, hoping to
overtake birn. Each man tried to get
ahead of hut neighbor and the rapid time
made down the mountains was remarkable
All tbis time Tim had gone leisurely on,
bis head doubtless filled with visions of
roast pig. Alter a march of an hour or

Among the handbooks still to be written
the “Burglar’s Complete Guide” has yet
to appear. Pending the publication of
that useful compendium of the experience
gained by the veterans of the craft, it may
not be amiss to say a few words on the
outfit required by any person who ven
tures to earn a livelihood by the profes
sional art of housebreaking. Burglary is
rather a difficult as well as a dangerous
profession to pursue. The ordinary thlel'
may contrive to be fairly successful with
mediocre abilities. Mere vulgar filching
only requires, quickness and cunning and
a fair share of brazen Impudence. The
burglar, on the contrary, must not have (
fair stock of courage, but more than ordi
nary resources of skill. Nat unlrtqueutiy
he is an experienced mechanic—a qualifi
cation which stands him in exceedingly
good stead in the manufacture of the tools
of his craft. For it is one of the disad
vantages of his calling that Its implements
cannot be purchased in the market-place,
but must in many cases be surreptitiously
manufactured in the closet.
The instruments required for the pur-
pose of burglary are not many In numlwr,
but it is often necessary to expend upon
them much skdful workmanship. While
being as effective as possible, they must
also be light and handy. The accomp
lished house-breaker will never load him
self with so many or such massive tools as
will either excite suspicion when he sets
out ou a nocturnal ramble, or will act as
serious impedimen t in case of rapid flight.
Like all other specialists, the burglar
makes a study of his craft, and nine parts
of his success are due to the skill with
which be adapts his means to his ends.
The kind of implements vary according to
the kind of robbery to he committed. A
burglar does not, as some innocents seem
to imagine, set out prepared to rob any
house that may seem to offer a temptation.
The choice of any particular “crib to be
cracked” in a matter which calls for great
cars and discrimination. Generally the
thief has fonnd means to inform himself,
at least approximately, as to the difficul
ties he may have to encounter and the
sort of booty which is to be expected. If
there is a safe or a strong box to be broken
open be provides himself with a large
crowbar, Known in the profession as a
“Jimmy.” It is made in sections, which
screw on to e&cft other much as the rods of
s sweep’s brusfc^re screwed together tor a
chimney. Whci' a ctowbar of this kind
is disjointed a yvotnan can conveniently
catry it undef her apron to the Intended
scene of operations. It Is seldom, how
ever, tbat suah large “Jimmies” arc em
ployed. J t
