The Height of Meanness.
The meanest man competition has
begun again. So far California takes
the lead. It is recorded that a mer
chant in Los Angelos observed a news
boy peering down into the grating in
the sidewalk in front of his store one
afternoon recently, and upon inquiry
leatned that the little chap had dropped
a quarter into the place and was study
ing upon the best means of recovering
his wealth. The merchant one of his
clerks sent downintothe cellarrecovered
the coin and very coolly put it into his
till. A police-officer investigated the
matter, and gave the boy twenty-five
cents to replace the coin of which lie
had been pluadered.
A Distinguishoe Old Lady.
Mrs. Polk, the widow of James K.
Polk, tenth President of the United
States, is over eighty years of age, but
she is in good health and she possesses
a memory of unimpaired yigor. She
resides in the old Polk homestead at
Nashville, Tenn., a large, roomy, two
story building made ofjbrick.
Are Wooden Bridges Safest ?
A wooden bridge has been built in
place of the iron death-trap which re
cently went down in the suburbs of
Boston. Who is there to prove that
after all wooden railroad bridges [are
not better 'than those built of iron ?
No one has ever beard of a wooden
structure eoing down because of its
sudden contraction by cold or expansion
by heat. Wood goes to decay, but it
does not crystalize or rust out. A blow
delivered by a broken shaft or locomo
tive driver which will crack and possi
bly destroy a bridge constructed of iron
will not in any way cripple a good
bridge made up of wood and bolts. Iron
bridges have not been used long enough
to be anything more than an experi
ment. The experiment, has not yet
proved entirely satisfactory.
A Sumptuous Smoking-Room.
A Russian' millionaire has recently
bad built for him at St. Petersburg a
most flumptuou3 smosing room, which
is the astonishment of all the northern
capital. Its richness consists not so
much io its furniture, which is a mod
el of simplicity, but in its walls.
These are literally lined with European
bank notes. Instead of the mass of
white ceiling which forms the despera
tion of disciples of William Morris, is
seen a profusion of Austrian notes
most artistically grouped round a 10
florin bank note. Charming designs
composed of Freneh, English, Italian
and Russian bank notes adorn the
walls. The curious room has received
many famous visitors from all points of
the compass. Among others a celebra
ted Hungarian painter was introduced.
He glanced up at the million
aire and said with a smile : "Sir, it is
a pity you have already thus disposed
of your money, for the same amount I
would willingly have decorated your
walls, perhaps more artistically,indeed
than is now the case—by covering
them with paintings, even as Michael
Angelo did for his Holiness, Pope Ju
lius II."
IF I wanted to get good, square
j udgement on something I had done, I
had rather go to a newspaper olfice for
it than any other court of j rstice. I
know the justice of journals, their in
tegrity and their purity of motives. I
know that they probe into men's char
acters. No man whose character is
pure need fear all the press in America.
The way to be safe from so-called news
paper attacks is to be a Christian. The
reporters are the best detectiye force in
this country. They have brought more
criminals to justice and punctured
more shams than all agencies combined.

Sour Grapes.
A Geld hand cue day found in his
trap a.nioe plump rabbit. He took liim
out alive, held hiin under his arm, pat
ted him, and began to speculate on his
qualities.
"Oh, how fat ! berry fat ! tho fattest
I eber did see ! Let me see how I'll
cook him; I broil him ! No, lie so fat
he lose all de giease. 1 fry him. Ah,
yes !he so berry fat he fry himself.
How fat he be ! No, I won't fry him,
I stew him !"
The thought of the savory stew made
the negro forget himself; and in spread -
ing out the feast in his imagination,
his arms relaxed, when suddenly off
hopped the rabbit, and, squattering at
a goodly distance away, be eyed his
late owner with cool composure.
The negro knew, of course, that there
was an end of the stew; and, therefore,
summoning up all his philosophy, he
thus addressed the ranbit, as he shook
his fist at him: "You long eaied,
white-whiskered rascal you not so ber
ryfat, after all!" Youth's Companion.
Chickens Artificially Raised.
'For my part I don't see why Dr. Ed
son seizes all the bob veal and loaves all
the spring chickens," said a veal dealer
who had just lost a morning's profit
through the visit of a lynx-eyed inspec
tor.
"Why do you class the two togeth
er ?" inquired the reporter.
"Because one is just as immature as
the other, and if young veal is unfit for
food so are young chickens. Take for
instance the eggs hatched by incuba
tors. Any poultry expert will tell you
that the flesh of the artificially hatched
chicken is as insipid as a snowball, and
yet people arc willing to pay $3 a pair
for them. The incubator folly is, how
ever, less prevalent than it was a few
years ago, and fewer people are ruined.
It is fair to say that eacli year, for the
past ten years,sl 000,000 have been lost
by persons who believed that there was
a fortune in hatching eggs with the aid
of kerosene oil.
"Ten years ago a gentleman of this
city bought a farm up the Hudson and
spared no expense in attempting to
make it a success of artificial chicken
raising. He sunk $-30,000 in the enter
prise and gave it up as a failure. Last
year a prominent type foundry-man of
this city became infatuated with the in
cubator craze, sold his snug home in
Ilarltm, bought a place out near Pater
son, N. J., and witli his family started
to hatch chickens with the aid of an in
cubator. The incubator cost S2OO. lie
spent $2-3 in kerosene oil, $22 in eggs,
and hatched out two dozen chickens.
Seventeen of tliera died with the pip.
Ilis family became disgusted and left
him on the farm with the incubator,the
pig and a cow. He couldn't milk the
cow nor cook a meal, and when he
wrote to the incubator people asking
them to take the machine back they of
fered him sls for it. An old hen,aided
by nature and warm weather, will
knock out the incuoator in short order
and besides the chickens will live and
have some flavor to them."

LAND'S OPINION.
A IMI.VMICIMII ('limiting I IK* Editorial
Slulrs.
Tlio columns of the newspapers ap
pear 10 be flooded with proprietary med
icine ndvertisemonts. As we e::st our
eye over them, it brings to mind an ar
ticle that was published by the late l>r.
Holland in Scr tier's Monthly. He
says: "Nevertheless, it is a fact that
many of the best proprietary medicines
of the day were more successful than
many physicians, and most of them, it
should bo remembered,were at first dis
covered or used in actual medical prac
tice. When, however, any shrewd per
son, knowing their virtue, and foresee
ing their popularity, secures ami advis
es them, then, in the opinion of the bi
goted, all virtue went out of them."
Is not this absurd V This great man
appreciated the real merits of popular
remedies, and the absurdity of those
that derided them because public atten
tion was called to the article and the
evidence of their cur-s. If the most
noted physician should 'announce that
he had made a study of any certain or
gan or disease of tlre body, or make his
sign larger than the code size, though
he may have practiced medicine and
been a leader in all medical counsels,
notwithstanding all this, if he should
presume to advertise and decline to
give his discovery to the public, he
would be pronounced a quack and a
humbucr, although he may have spent
his entire life and all his available funds
in perfecting his investigation. Again
we sav, "absurd."
If an ulcer is found upon one's arm.
and is cured bv some dear soul of a
grandmother, outside of the code, it
will be pronounced by the medical pro
fession an ulcer of little importance.
Hut if treated under the code, causing
sleepless nights for a month, with the
scientific treat meet, viz., plasters, wash
es, dosing with morphine, arsenic and
other vile substances, given to prevent
blood poisoning or deaden pain, and yet
the ulcer becomes malignant, and am
putation is made necessary at last, to
save life, yet all dour according to the
"isms" of the medical code, this is
much more gratifying to the medical
profession, and adds more dignity to
that distinguished order than to l>e cur
ed by the dear old grandmother's rem
edy.
This appears like a severe arraign
ment, yet we believe that it expresses
the true standing of the medical pro
fession in regard to remedies discovered
outside of their special "isms." One
of the must perplexing things of the
day is the populatity of certain reme
dies, especially Warner's safe cure,
which we find for sale everywhere. The
physician of the highest standing is
ready to concede its merits and sustain
the theories the proprietors have made
—that is, (hat it Wait tits in most of the
ailments of the human system, because
it assists in puttingtho kidneys in prop
er condition, thereby aiding in throw
ing off the impurities of the blood,while
others with less honesty and experience
deride, and are willing to see their pa
tient die scientifically,and according to
the code, rather than have him cured
by this great remedy. Yet we notice
thai the popularity of the medicine
continues to grow vear by year. The
discoverer conies boldly before the peo
ple with its merits, and proclaims them
from door to door in our opinion much
more honorably than the physician who,
perchance, may secure a patient from
some catastrophe, and is permitted to
set a bone of an arm or a linger, which
he does with great dignity, yet v ry
soon after takes the liberty to climb tin
editor's back stairs at - o'clock in the
morning to have it announced in the j
morning paper that "Dr. So-and-so was
in attendance," and thus secures for
his benefit a beautiful and free adver
tisement. We shall leave it to our j
readers to say which is the wisest and
most honorable.

Several years ago on one of our north-'
ern bays, when, as yet, steamers were j
infrequent visitors, a certain small boat j
used to ply, touching at various points,
according as its freight or the weather
demanded.
The crew was somewhat limited, con
sisting of the captain, the first mate, j
whose name was Barnabas, and cook, !
John, who, when stress of work requir
ed, also acted as second mate.
John was an excellent cook and a
fairly good sailor,but was aftlicted with
an impediment in his speech which j
made liiin somewhat backward in ex
pressing himself,'and was especially an
noying, if, for any reason, ho becomes
excited. At such times the more lie :
wanted to say something the less lie
was able to say it. Fortunately, bow
ever, he could sing as straight as any
one.
One day the Captain was below tak
ing a nap, while Barnabas and John
were running the boat. A sudden
squall happened to come up, and a puff
of wind brought the boom around with
such unexpected violence as to knock
the unwary Barnabas overboard.
Thereupon John rushed into the cabin
in the wildest excitement to inform the
Captain of what had occurred, but, as
usual, lie was unable to get out a co
herent sentence.
"B— b—b—b—" he stuttered, until
the Captain, in a rage, shouted :
"Thunderation ! man, sing it if you
can't say it," and John,catching at the
happy suggestion, sang :
' Overboard is Barnabas,
Half a'mile astern of us."
The boat was immediately put about
and the luckless Barnabas recovered. —

The (iuoßiion arises us to how those
iiion can lie employed. Of course, it is
not possible to force thoso men into
employment ,* noithor would it ho prop
er to put thoin into rosponsiblo posi
tions. Thoy should lo graded accord

There ate many places where moo <d
this kind could bo employed where
there would be no motive for them lo

for them to do so. Many of theiu would
liud employment themselves, ami, if let
alone, would continue in such employ
ment, but some society would have to
to formed similar to the Society of the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals to
protect thorn. Its agents should ho in
all parts of the country. For instance,
where a in tn has boon convicted of a
crime in New Voik, <m being released
from prison it Jmight be necessary, in
order to keep liini away from his old
associates, and give linn a new stait in
life, to scud liini to some other city or

of the society in the different parts of
the country, and one could help the
other. lam satisfied that if an organi
zation of this kind were once started
and properly managed oncer honest
and competent ollicers and agents, it
would soon gain the confidence of the
public and chat itahle men ami women
who would come to its aid, and be a
uiong the most earnest and ii lluential
looking toward the reformation of tlase
men and women. Men coming from
prison would soon learn to have eonti
denee in the society, and would lie con*
vincetl that thev coukl trust it, and
j that people merely for t lie sake of curi
osity could not ascertain anything in
■ regard to tlieoi. Of course there would
b 1 ci iminals w ho would endeavor to im-
I pose on tlie society and try to use it f< r
the purpose of [iiompting some ef their
! schemes, but 1 venture to say that the
number would be very few. The s< ci
ety should also make it a rule that
where an effort had been made to re
form a man, and lie had intentionally
! and willfully deceived the society and
Mill pursued a life of crime,the society's
course would be to give information to
the police which would enable tin in to
follow the man and uause liiin to again
be stopped in his criminal career. There
are already "prison aid societies." No
doubt they are ot coi siderahle benefit,
but their means are not sullicient to < li
able them to be of a great deal of ser
vice, and men wh > have been criminals
and to whom 1 iia\e talked in regard to
reforming, have expressed to me their
lack of coiili lencc in them. The invar
iable conclusion reached has been that
the principal thing that is given by
them is advice and veiy little a>M>t
ance. It is juM possible that this
arise from lack of funds. If a society
of this ki..d were organized of course it
would be necessary to ket pa complete
record of all those who had 1 e< n assist
ed, and the employment they tj.nl been
put at. It would also be nec 'ssary for
the agents of the society to keep a look
out for tin* welfare of these men, and to
see how they wa re getting along. The
books and records of the society should
of course be considered secret, and no
information should be given from the
same unless the society's agent were
thoroughly convinced that it was for
the purpose of aiding the ends of jus
tice. Whenever a complaint was made
about any one who had been a criminal
that lie was being persecuted by pul.ee
officials or others, the society should at
once take steps to put a slop to such
persecution.
A man who has b -en known as a pro
fessional'criminal, starting out to re
form, has an almost impossible t isk to
accomplish, and although a number
have succeeded, very many have be-n
forced back from their good resoluth n
by persecution on the part of police of
ficials and those who have know them
in their criminal career.— l!ohcrt A.

The Pennsylvania Prison .Society (late
the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating
tho Miseries of Public Prisons) cele
brates its Centennial Anniversary in
Philadelphia, this week, May 3, 1 and 5.
Meetings are to be held each day, front
3to 5 and S to 10 o'clock, p.m. Ad
dresses will be delivered by distinguish
ed penologists of tins and ot her coun
tries. The mornings will be devoted lo
visiting the Eastern Penitential y,
County Prison, House of Kefuge,House
of Correction, Station Houses, o!e. The
Governor of the State is ex peel d to
welcome the delegates and guests. The
Mayor of the city will make an address
of welcome. The officers of the State,
the Legislature, Judges of the Courts,
and ot tiers are invited.
This is perhaps tho oldest society of
the kind, having been organized May s,
stitution, minute book, and roll. There
were present at the first meeting thirty
one gentlemen, and these with many
others are recorded as the original sign
ers of the constitution. Their names
are recognized as those of the men
"who gave character and prosperity to
the city," such as Benjamin Rush, lit.
Rev. William White, Benjamin Frank
lin, and others honored in the history
of the city and the State. It stated
that in its earliest days tho founders of
this Society would take discharged
prisoners into their own homes, and
shelter and provide for them. To this
davit continues to care for the same
class in methods similar to those of our
own New Yoik Prison Association.
These associations, in the rescue of a
single criminal, often save the State
thousands of dollars, which would have
been expended for his re-trial and re-in
carceration.— New York: Observer.

Confidence between dealer and cus
tomer is a irrari'i thing. It's got to
have a deeper loiind.it lon'than that one
man has the goods and'another wants
them. Without seeming censorious,
it's got to have a more substantial base
than even commercial honesty. That
tolerat" i adulterations'of goods, admix
tures of poor materials and good and
runs its risks, it' needs be, of being
found out. If anyone in business wants
to get llriuly rooted in the esteem of
those lie deals with, lie must be ready
to go a step farther —be sponsor for
what he 'sells out-and-out, or ready to
make it good. Confidence is sure to
follow sueli a course. It may seem like
giving a hemic character to business to
put it on the same footing as morality,
but that's the only price that will pur
chase the eontidenee of otheis. Integ
