The Brakemens Home, At Fifty-second street and the Penu- sylvania Railroad, Philadelphia, is. a building which has been erected within a year at a cost of abont $10,000. It is intended to afford a temporary refuge for men employed on freight (rains, when off duty or away from home. Most of these trainmen live at Harrisburg, Columbia and smaller towns along the line of the Pennsylvania Railroad. When not at work there was, uutil re- cently, no place in which employes could spend their time, exeept the cabin cars or the taverns, The building was ereoted by the company on faith, its proprietors not being sure that those for whom it was designed would appreciate efforts made to improye their condition, But these men have shown that they can and do aporeciate. The pleasant rooms are always in use, Especially is this the case on Sunday, when the library often aots as a preventive of Sunday dmssipation, The *‘reading room,” as it is generally called, is a plain, substan- taal structure of red brick, with trim- mings of tiles and a sloping slate roof. 1t stands east of Fifty-second street, upon part of the old Heston property, in a pretty green lawn, shaded with a number of fine trees and enclosed by a neatly painted picket fence, with a gate opening upon Fitty-second street. The house 18 so planned that the first story proper is opposite the railroad bank and connected with it by a foot-bridgs, fine ground floor really constituting a base- ment. The building is, theoefore, three stories in height from Fifty-second street and but two from the railroad. The path from the Fifty-second street gate leads to a door opening to the basement entry. This basement has a solid flooring of cement, while, common with the whole interior, the walls are white and the woodwork a beautiful oiled oak, Here are the heaters and coal-bins, a large wash room with towels and hand basins, and three commodious bath rooms, all provided with hot and cold water, A staircase leads to the main floor, which is divided by a wide entry into two nearly equal portions, the eastern containining two small rooms, the western one large one, The small room at the head of the stairs is a smok- ing room. This contains a large table for games, chairs and an immense ice- cooler with a capacity sufficient to sup ply an army. No smoking 1s allowed in any part of the building except this roots. Checkers and dominoes are pro- vided, but other games are forbidden. The large room towards the west is the library and reading room. This is amply lighted and ventilated by six fine windows, shaded by striped awnings. The floor is carpeted with a quiet-tinted rich body Urussels; the il walls of Pennsylvania Railroad scenery, Two large tables near the centre of the room current literature, comprising all the standard magazines, several copies of each, and the daily and weekly papers of the principal cities in the Union, as well as of the smaller towns along the railroad. Settees and chairs are plenty so that there are ample accomodations for all who desire to avail themselves of these privileges. One side of the room is devoted to bookcases, which are of oiled oak and plate-glass. They are not yet filled, but they already contain a very good collection of volumes, includ- ing all the works of Dickens, Scott, Thackeray, Cooper, Shakespeare, the poems of Longfellow and Byron, several valuasle religious works, as the “Pile grim’s Progress’ and Farrar’s “Life of Christ” and a number of standard books of reference. The very first donation to the library was a handsomely bound copy of the Bible, but it seems Lo be the book least in demand. Webster's una- bridged, on the contrary, 1s often con- sulted. Altogether, except that the bookcases are not yet filled, the library aad readisg rcom 1s as fire a one as can ha found in most private residences, even pretentious ones, The third story is a large lodging or resting room lt is provided with iron eols, with green oil cloth mattresses, No bed clothing is needed, as the men, having usually but a short tume to spare lie down in their clethes, An arrange- ment is made by which any man can be oalled in ime to go on duty, thus re- living ham from ali care in the matter, There are no dining rooms nor any meals served on the premises, as the sraizunen have cook stoves in toeir cabincars aud generally leave home with provisions enough to isst them several days, One is struck with the wonder- ful neatness and cleanliness everywhere, The floors, glass and woodwork fairly shine. The library is the only room carpeted, the others and the entries and stairways being supplied with strips of cocoa matting, According to the rules the institusion spitting on tue floor or defacing the building or [uruiture is forbidden. Other rules prohibit loud conversation likely to disturb those read- ing or sleeping, profane or ungentie- mauly language, carelessness in hand- ling books or removing books from the library. Altogether the appearance of everytlung would do credit to any com- munity or association, For the use of the buildig and its privileges the com- pany makes to charge whatever. Allis provided freely, the only restriction being that freight employes; for whom it is mtended, must not make a practice of bringing others in, and must, more- over, conduct themselves properly while enjoying these benefits, The small room fronting on the rail- road, in the eastern part of the first floor, is an office for radroad business, Here an applicant for any position con- nected with ht trains is examined by the proper officials, Not only must he be able to read and write, bus he must read large print and small, and distinguish the separate letters at the distance of so many feet or so many inches, His sight, hearing sud color. sense must be within certain limitations cultivated to perfection, To test the eyes the examiner places upon the candidate's nose a pair of spectacles, literally without glasses, A movable disc of iron is p before the right and left eye alternately to deter whether he can see or read equally well with both eyes, Wearing these peculiar spectacles he reads printed cards upon a movable frame and also upon the wall across the room. From these tests his oapaeity for sight is marked according to a graduated soale. The test for hearing are made according to a stop-watoli and tones of conversa- tion at a greater or less distance. The color tests are more complicated, The candidate is shown a stick about two feet in length, from which hang skeins of colored zephyr, twenty or more, and ull numbered, He must first pick out ull the red tones, from the deepeet oar- dinal to the faintest salmon, next, all the greens, from the darkest olive to the palest Nile green, and then all the rose tints, from delicate shell-pink {0 garnet. Nor must he confuse any of them with each other or with the grays aud browns scattered between, which latter Lie must plainly distinguish from yellow and orange. Then, from acollection of rail. road flags, new, passable and old, he must select the required shade and be able to tell a battered green froma navy blue and a dirty white from a black, as well as know the bright hues of the fresh bunting. It will thus be seen that those who use this building are trust- worthy, active, wide-awake men, ei——— One Hundred Yeis Ago. It was on the 25th of November, 17- 83—a brilliant day, that an excited crowd surged and shouted about Mr. Day’s tavern in Murray street, near the road to Greenwich, New York. Can- ningham, the cruel and vindictive British provost-marshal, stood at the foot of the flag-pole, from which floated the stars and stripes, the flag of the new republic. *“‘Come, you rebel cur,’ he said to Mr. Day, “I give you two minutes to hanl down that rag—1I'll have no such striped clout as that flying in the face of his majesty’s forces!” “Phere 1t is, and there it shall stay,” said Day, quetly butfirmly. Cunning- ham turned to his guard, “+Arrest that man,” he ordered. “And as for this thing here, 1'll haul it down myself,” and seizing the halyards, he began to lower the flag. The crowd broke out into tierce murmurs, uncer- tain what to do, Bat, in the midst of the tumult, the door of the tavern flew open, and forth sallied Mrs, Day, armed with her trusty broom, “Hands off that flag, you viliain, and drop my husband!’ she cried, and be- | fore the astonished Cunningham could realize the situation, the broom came thwack! thwack! upon his powdered wig. Old men still lived, not twenty ago, who were boys in that excite how, amidst jeers laughter, the defeated } rovost-marshal | withdrew from the unequal contist, an i fled bedore the resistloss swe €p of ay's all-conquering broom. Sir Guy Carleton, K. CU, mander-in-chief of al his forces in the colonies, stood at the of the flag-stafl on the northern bastion | of Fort George. Before him filed the departing troops of his king, evacuating the pleasant little city they had occu pied for over seven years, The waves of the bay sparkled in the suvlight, while the whale boats, barges, gigs, and launches sped over the water, bearing troops and refugees to the transports, or to the temporary camp on Sial [<isud. Toe last act of tue evaciual was almost completed; and, as 10 the steains of appropriate music the com- mander-in-ohief and his staff passed down to the boats, the red cross of Bt, George, Englaud’s royal flag, came flattering down from its high stafl on the north bastion, and the Iast of the rear-guard wheeled toward the slip. But Conningham, the provost-marshal, still angered by the thought of hus dis- comforture at Day's tavern, declared roundly that no rebel flag should go up that staff iv sight of King George's men. “Come, lively now, you blae jackets,” he shouted, turning to some of the sailors from the fleet, *“‘Unreeve the halyards, quick; slush down the pole; knock off the stepping-cleats! Then let them run their rag up if they can.” His orders were quickiy obeyed, and the marshal left the now liberated city. in a few moments, Colonel Jackson, halting before the flag-stafl, ordered up the stars and stripes, “The halyards are cut, Colonel,” re ported the color-sergant; ‘‘the cleats are gone, and the pole is slushed.” “A mean trick, indeed,” exclaimed the indignant Colonel, **A gold jacobus to him who will climb the stafl and reeve the halyards for the stars and stripes!” I want no money for the job,” said a young sailor-lad as he tried it man. fully ounce, twice, thrice, and each time eames slipping down covered with slush and shame, “I'll fix ‘em yet,” be said. “If yo'll but saw me up some cleats, I'll run that flag to the top in spite of all the Tories from 'Sopus to Sandy Hook!” Ready hands came to the assistance of the young plucky lad, Then, tying the halysrds around his waist, and filling his jacket pockets with cleats and nails, ue worked his way up the flag-pole, nailing and climbing aa he went. And now he reaches the top, now the halyards are rove, and as the beautilul flag goes flutteringjap the stall a mighty cheer is heard, and a round of thirteen guns salutes the stars and stripes acd the brave sailor-boy who did the gallant deed. 1 he Flathead Indians Not Fiatheaded, About seventy miles from the north- ern boundary of the United States, in the Territory of Montana, between the western sloge of the Rockies and the more westerly chain of mountains known ss the Cwur d'Alene, and, as ou travel further south, as the Bitter lies the reservation which has been assigned to the tribe of Indians called the Filatheads; and probably no tribe have adapted themselves more to the manners of civilization at the ex. pense of their former customs and habits thon these.

There are two sorts com- mon here, the Superbum and the Cana~ dense. 1t is only the former sort how ever that may be said to be common, for the latter, perbaps at no time very abundant, is but seldom met with in any woods much visited by the public. The Superbum grows to a height of five to six feet im its native woods, The flowers sre brilliant soarlet, appearing about the first of August, The Cana- denae does not grow so tall by two feet, Its flowers are yellow, not so large as the former, and bell shaped, the seg- ments barely reflexing at their points, while it is the character of Superbum to reflex the tips, of the segments turning to the stem, There are other old sorts of native lilies, but they are not found here. There are some very beautiful newer ones from the Pacific Slates which thrive yery well with us, out of doors with our own, Lilies transplanted from the woods to our gardens grow yery well, but they do not grow so tall as when wild, The fall is the pest time to get them.

At that time the settlers of the Missouri were in the habit of making re- gular yearly visits to St. Louis to do their trading for themselves and their friends. They were not provided with daily with the outside world, and many who lived back from the river, seldom, if ever, saw a steam- boat more than oncsa year. It hap- pened that dunng the fall of 1884 the steamboat Lexington started up the Missouri river, loaded down to the guards with freight. The steamer was provided with a steam whistle-~the first used on the Missoari river —and as it happened no one knew about it exept Warner, who was a wag and a lover of a Joke. The night after leaving St. Louis the pas- sengers were collected together playing cards (for fun) in the cabin, when tne talk turned upon steamboat explosions, then very common. “I feel perfectly safein this boat,” said Warner as he dealt the cards, “Why? inquired Yocum the ter. “Why?” echoed the rest of the com- pany. “1 will tell you why," said the wag, carefully studying his cards, This boat is provided with a new patont safety valve, which notifies passengers on board when it is about to blow up. It is a concern which makes a most unearthly noise, and when you hear it, it is time to get back aft or jump over- board. Notwithstanding the fact that War- ner told his story with the most solemn and earnest countenance, some were skeptical. Not so, however, with the planter. Next morning, when the Lexington was steaming up the long, straight stretch of river just below Washington. Mo,, the passengers were at breakfast. The meal had been cal- led, and all were busily engaged in do- ing justice to the kind of meal they were accustomed to serve on steamboats in those days. Suddenly the whistle commenced to blow, the first time on the trip. The passengers looked at each other a moment, and horror and dismay spread over their faces. The first man to realize the situation and act, was Yocum, the planter, who, with hair erect and blanched face, jumped up, crying as he pulled over one after another of the passengers, “Ran, run for your lives; the darn thing is going to bust, Come with me, and lol's save ourselves.’ Of course there was a stampede for the rear of the boat, and it was only by the exertions of some of the crew that the more excited were restrained from Jumping into the river, rns AA —*A million bats" are said to lin. habit the dome of the Brenham (Ga.)

The canes admitted nearly always fall under the two classes mentioned above as be- ing committed the “‘Quartiers,” Occasionally, however . boys are receiv ed at the request of their parents, under a warrant of the President of the Civil Tribunal, for a treatment that is called “Correction paternelle,” a short but severe discipline of from ope to three months. These cases are always isolat- ed. The process of committal in ordinary circumstances 18 as follows: —The police lay an information before the Procur- eur. The Procureur puts the case in hands of the Judge d’Instructiou, who interrogates the boy, and makes the necessary inquiries as to his antecedents and circumstances from the Maire of the Commune, The tribunals occa- sionally give the children back to their parents once, twice, or thrice, in some instances taking guarantees for good behavior, On the arrival of a child at “Quartier,” he is placed in the le,” but on full allowance of food.

Taking up the Register, I found that the first name that came to hand had had twen- ty one days ‘‘cellule’” in the last five months. I may here say that the feel- ing agaihst corporal punishment found no favor with the Director, who ex- pressed the greatest objection to ““bury- ing a boy alive, just when he was most full of life,” but for some serious or re- peated offences he has no other resource. When he first came to his present post, after a serious emeute in the “Quar- tier’ he found thirty boys iu the cells for two months, He released them, and made a speech to the effect that he would stand no nonsense, and since that time things have gone better. The staff under the Director consists of one inspector-—for the prison also,— a brigadier, five guardians, who are all old soldiers, a schoolmaster gymnastic master, and music-waster. The trades are taught by workmen from the town. Out of the 150 boys on the register, only eighteen are out on licence, this part of the system not bzing employed nearly to the same extent as at Douai- res. The difficulty of finding berths for the boys is much greater at Rouen. in the first place, the tradesmen are far more shy of the children from a “Quar- tier” than a “Colonie.” Secondly, several of the trades are but imperfect; ly taught, a particular stage only being carried on in the institution, so that the boys are less able to earn money than they would be if master of what the Director called a “solid” trade. He tries to teach “solid” trades as much as possible to orphans, so that the best in- dustrial training may pot be thrown away on boys who are liable to be de- coyed from situations by their parents, The interference of parents, however, does not seem to exist tO any very con. siderable extent. The Societe de Patronage exists at Rouen, for looking after children on license and discharged cases. The Director did not seem to think much of this body, intimating that they coufin- ed their efforts mainly to subscriptions, and lacked denouement. Probably in a town like Rouen there is a want of persons with enough leisure; while ina great metropolis like Paris, philanthro- pists, briefless barristers, and other ar- dent unemployed spirits exist in plenty.
