^tumorous Jcpartmfut. LOVE AND HUT WATER. Iu Seville, which is popularly kuown to be iu Spain, there is in use a most felicitous invention iu the way of making loving, clandestinely. After dark, young caballeros steal beneath their ladies' lattice?which, perchance is in the third story?aud softly unscrewing the handle of their walking sticks, proceed to extract from the same, which are hollow, leugth after length of hollow tubiug, and screw them together after the manner of a Japanese fishing pole, or the old apparatus wherewith sweeps clean chimneys. A mouth piece is fitted into each end, aud one raised to the window above. Soon, by the aid of this improvised speaking tube, two souls with a certain unanimity of thought, and two hearts with a possible unison of pulsation are softly communing. Now all this is very nice, romantic aud all that sort of thing; but mark what the knowledge of it brought to a certain youth of Baltimore. He had read of it, or heard of it, and happening to have a surreptitious affection for a young and wealthy lady, which she as surreptitiously reciprocated, he determined, with her connivance, to avail himself of it. He got a tin pipe of the desired length, made by a tinner ; and in each end of it placed, for want of a better mouth piece, a funnel. Delicious conversation was carried on, he sitting upon the top of a water barrel, and she leauing from her window above. They would converse for hours, and exchange all the soft nonsense in the world, and then he would unship his apparatus, put the funnels in his pocket, wrap the pieces iu a newspaper, and go home in a state of etheral bliss. Tbe course 01 true love never did run smooth, and one evening the old gentleman, smoking in the back garden at an unusual hour, saw the young man arrive, fix up his apparatus and commence his soul communing operations. He made up his mind in a minute. He weut into the kitchen, and asked for pitcher of boiling water; it was handed to him and ofi he posted, upstairs. Just as he reached his daughter's room, he commenced calling to her. So, telliDg her lover to wait a moment, she came to the door, "Nellie, my dear, run up to my room and get me my spectacles; I'll wait here until you come down." She disappeared up stairs and he stole cautiously to tbe window. The moment he touched the funnel, the unsuspecting youth clapped his mouth to it and began where he had broken off. "My darling, you cannot imagine how?" Just then the old gentleman com J ;j 1? Clt:?? menceu ussiuuuuai^ umug iuv with hot water, and the rest of that miserable youth's sentence was never heard. He wore flour upon his face for a fortnight after, and declines to go in society just at present. A DRY SEASON. "Stranger, I take it," observed an elderly resident the other day, as I stopped and asked if there were any blackberry trees around his way. "I judged so. I was a stranger myself when I fust kim here. That was in the summer of '49. Hottest summer ever- known in these parts." "Any warmer than this?" I asked him. "Summut, summut! That summer of '49 the cedar trees melted and run right along the ground ? You notice how red that ere dust is !" "Pretty warm," I ventured. "Why, sir, durin' the summer of '49 we kept meat right on the ice to keep it from cookin' too fast, and we had to put chickens in refrigerators to get raw eggs." "Where did you get the ice ?" "We had it left over and kept it in b'ilin'water ! Yes, sir. The temperature of b'ilin' water was so much lower than the temperature of the atmnenhprp t.haf, it, Icpti' the ice SO Cold that you could not touch it with your finger?" ''Anything else startling that season ?" "That summer of '49? Well, I guess ! The Hackeusack river began to b'ile airly in June, and we didn't see the sky until October, fer the steam in the air. And fish! fish! They were droppin' all over town cooked just as you wanted 'em. There wasn't anything but fish until the river dried up!" "What did you have then ?" "The finest oysters and clams you ever heard of. They walked right ashore for water, and they'd drink apple-jack right out of the demijohn! Yes, sir. You call this hot! I feel like an overcoat!" "What is your business?" I asked him. "I am a preacher," he replied. "By the way you wanted blackberry trees. Just keep up the thumb hand side of the road until you come to the pig pasture, and there you will fiud the tree. Climb upon my goose roost, and you can knock down all the berries you want, if you can find a pole long enough.?Brooklyn Eagle. Attending Church Under Difficulties.?A Negro went to a fashionable church at Middletown, Conn., on Sunday, recently, and sat down in a pew, wheu, just as he was getting interested in the sermon, a rough-looking, pious church member came in and took him by the collar and threw him into the vestibule. He thought he would stay there and hear the rest of the sermon, when the sexton kicked him off the steps. Ho went to the side of the church to listen to the sermon through the window; when one of the members said "Amen"' to something the minister said, and then spit tobacco juice out of the window into the listener's eyes.

ROBINSON'S ABILITY. HE HAS A FAMOUS PITCHER. "One of the best men that I ever knew at adapting himself to circumstances," observed Major Hotchkiss to a Tribune writer, "was a young fellow that we'll call Robinson. He was a Yale mau and, I fancy, a bit of a black sheep. He came of a good New England family, and one brother went into the ministry, and another came to this city and prospered in the law, but these pursuits were too prosaic for him. After we left college he went to Cuba for a few months, and then came back and drifted to Chicago and became a reporter on the Chicago Times. This was in the old Storey days, when a Times reporter, in the event of a man refusing to give him news, was expected to take the man down and hammer it out of him. "Robinson made a mistake one day. He hammered the city editor, and had i? !/%???? tnum TTa nrnmnt 1 v LU ICO Vt IUO WIT Ui J *V pi wiu|/tij vwuiv out to Badger Rock, Montana. "Badger Rock, at that time, was one of the hardest towns in the West. Homicide was a pastime, like lawn tennis or croquet in other parts of the country. Mining and gambling were the only two recognized industries, with the preference given to gambling as a gentlemanly occasion. Robinsou got immediate employment on a morning paper called by its owner, with a tine irony, The Daily Dove. It was the worst sheet in town, which is saying a great deal. The exciting nature of a connection with it may be best realized when I say that the paper's strong point was abusive personals in a country where all personals are dangerous. "When Robinson came to town he found the post of city editor vacant, and applied for the place. The owner, notwithstanding his belligerency, was a fair man to his employees. He slipped his arm into Robinson's, aud led him half a mile up the raouutain to the little cemetery. Pointing to three white wooden headboards, he said: "Young man, there sleep your three predecessors." '"There's room for another between that end and the fence," answered Robinson, and he took the position of city editor. "Bui. f-.ViP u/nrst. thinrr ahntit the out look for the young man 1 have not yet mentioned. He could not shoot. He had tried to learn many times, but, in his own words, he 'couldn't hit a dock of barns.' When he explained this peculiarity to his employer, this individual was for having him immediately throw up the position. "Why,' he explained, 'they'll get you inside of a week. Quick and accurate shooting is the only chance for a man on this paper. I'd rather have a man that can't write than one who can't shoot.' "Just let me alone,' answered Robinson. 'If you are not satisfied at the end of a month I'll resign.' " 'Give me the address of the friend you want notified, please,' suid the man, whipping out a pencil; but Robinson only laughed, picked up the shears, cut the lapels off the side pockets of his coat, walked out and wandered away up the gulch. "Now, something the owner of The Daily Dove didn't know was that Robinson had pitched for three years on nnllorro Hnaphfll] r?l11! ? T-Tp had been the best pitcher the club ever bad. He could throw a ball harder and straighter (or crookeder, as the circumstances might require) than almost any man who up to that time had stood in the centre of the diamond. He had made up his mind to utilize his talent in this direction. Up the gulch he began selecting stones about the size of hen's eggs, hard and jagged. I think he picked out galena specimens largely, as being the heaviest, and frequently rough and square cornered. He dropped half a dozen nuggets iu each side pocket, and took off his hat 1 and filled that, aud returned. At the office he emptied the hat on his desk aud went to work. "The second day after this his employer said to him : 'Robinson, there's a mau come to town numed Wash Gazeley. He is a criminal aud a deudbeat who has killed five or six men. , He is now drunk and going about town destroying the property of some of our best advertisers. Just touch him up tomorrow morning.' Robin- ; sou wrote a ripping item, in which he . called the man 'a coward,' 'tramp,' ] 'chicken-thief,' and so forth, and warned him to get of town under pain of : 'further disclosures in the fearless columns of The Dove." It was a hot paragraph, and when the foreman read it he simply remarked : "Well, i I hope the man that takes the city editorship tomorrow will write a plain- | er hand.' "About ten o'clock the next morn- i iug ltobinsou was walking quietly j along the main street of the towu with his right hand resting carelessly in his i coat pocket. Suddenly 3Ir. Gazeley ' stepped out of the door of a saloon. He reached for his revolver. The young man from Yale who couldn't < shoot took his hand out of his pocket. ; In it was an irregular specimen of lead ore. I remember how the local doc- : tor tried to explain subsequently that 1 the specimen didn't hit Gazeley in a 'necessarily vital spot;' but it was vital enough for all practical purposes, and ' the next morning The Dove remarked casually that 'when the cut-throats of j this town meet around the hearth to- . night there will be one vacant chair. < Jim Gazeley is no more.' "The fate of Gazeley ought to have been enough for the other obnoxious citizens of the neighborhood, but of ( course it wasn't. A week later a mau came down from Placer Bench, winged the chief of police, shot out the lights in the post office, and rode his horse on the sidewalk. The Dove reprimanded him. He took a foolish and erring shot at the city editor, who re plied with a stone, and returned to his office and wrote that 'another oh settler has gone out from our midst Life is indeed uncertain. Now is tin time to subscribe.' ' Robinson stayed a year before In got tired of the place, and went to Sat Francisco, but I don't think that aftei the first three months he had anj trouble. During that time I would not dare to say bow many he popped over. Of course, most of them be only wounded. But as lie remarked in hi? valedictory, far more thau we intended have gone with less preparation than we could have wished. It should only serve to remind us that in tht midst of life a rock may catch us in tin jaw.' "I never knew what became of him but I fancy he has continued to tukt care of himself." &AKIN0 POWDER a Uanlufalu Diii>a ntlOVIHIVIJ Ml VI A cream of tartar baking powder.

FROM WALL STREET TO NEWGATE, VIA THE PRIMROSE WAY, BY AUSTIN BIDWELL. Austin Bidwell started life a< a clerk in Wall Street, and soon succumbed to the allurements of the primrose way. His first criminal venture was a trip tc Europe to sell stolen bonds. After a few similar enterprises ir New York, he returned to Europe with a pair of shrewd confederates and engaged in a systematic campaign of swindling the principal banks of the continent. mi_ _ a. I ne conspirators wcic so suuocasful in this that they next laid siege to the seemingly impregnable vaults of the Bank of England, and actually succeeded in securing over ^1,000,000 by artfully executed forgeries. But retribution came at last, and this brilliant coup cost Mr. Bidwell 20 years in English prisons. The story of his experiences is told in "From Wall Street to Newgate. It is replete with Stirring Incidents, Marvelous Adventures, Hairbreadth Escapes and remarkable experiences, such as few men have met with. They are narrated in an easy, picturesque style, evincing sincerity and candor, with no attempt at sensation or exaggera uoii. The truth told is stranger than fiction, and history may be challenged to produce another life into which has come so many varied and bewildering events, or to disclose another character, trained in a religious home, having culture and an unusual business talent, whose deflections from the path of honor has stirred to its very depth the entire civilized world. We, tlic undersigned, having read the new Hid well hook, "From Wall Street to Newgate," believe it will benefit every :>ne to read this marvelous history of human experience. Aside from its dramatic interest, there lie great moral lessons involved of especial interest to young men and employees in positions of trust. \> e, UltjriMUn.-, reiiiiunn-uu mm .-iiwijf OO i unique and valuable acquisition for home ind otlice.
