TUB BIRTH OP T0MH8T0XK. How she ArlKonn Town Oime to Get 11a fCttrnordlnary Name. When the late Matliew Arnold was in thU country ho took exceptions, among other things, to the names of our cities. So did Historian Froude. They salil we went to tlio classics and outraged history for cognomens to designate dugouts and "boom" towns. Their cultured souls were affected. But they never heard of Tombstone, Arizona. That is an American nnrao. The effete cast would novor have thought of such an appropriation, How did it come by the funereal title? ThU la a ques tion that is asked Almost every timo tho town is mentioned and but fow nro able to answer. " Conjectures, and they are many, aro put to rest under a tombstone, it might bo said, by the aid of Mr. C. C. AVarner, of tho Contention mine, Tombstono, who ngreed to relate to a reporter yesterday how it received its Wostorn name. Mr. "Warner has been in Tombstone almost since Its inception and passed through Denver yesterday on his return from Canon City. "It's quite as simple and natural as tho namo is strange and queer how it re ceived its christening, " he said. " There wero two brothers one, and probably both, living yet by the namo of Al. and Ed. Schefllen. (You will observe that there is a connection between the names and the town shuffling off tho mortal coil and. then tho Tombstono.) "Well, it's not often that I perpetrate a joke, but this Colorado air makes a fellow do many strange things. But I am wandering. The Schcfliens were, of course, prospect ors, and kept hanging about there for some timo without doing much. The Apache Indians were around pretty thick. Finally one day Ed. Schefllen prepared to start out on a prospecting tour up tho gulch. His brother tried to persuade him to abandon his proj ot, pointing out that the Indians would uevour him or that ho would get lost in the ravine ; but all to no purpose, o st as ho was about to start ho told his brother to look after a piece of rock that ho had found near the cAnp. "'Yes, I will use it for your tomb stone,' said Al. sadly, and away went the more go ahead brother. "Time passed, but there wero no tid ings of tho foolhardy brother. Weeks went and he did not put in an appear ance. Tho brother, truo to his promise, proceeded to carvo in rude letters in tho quartz rock an inscription which ran : Sacred to toe memory : : op : ED. SCHEFLIEN. j : Ho went prospecting to a : ; now country. : "The brother was sorryfor the loss, but then he had warned him and it could not bo helped. The Indians had scalped him. "About a week after he had finished his job and put it in front of tho tent, in jumped the brother, wild looking, but beaming with joy. "'Shake, old man, I have found it,' he caid to the stay at home ; 'it's lying all around.' He then began to empty his pockets of tho glittering quartz that he had taken to prove his statement. And it was so. "Away up in tho gulch he had found one of the richest mining grounds in tho territory. But ho was always a peculiar cuss, this Ed. He and Ids brother and a man named Qurd started out for thr place with supplies and tools. He namei1 this mine the Toughnut because ho had found it pretty hard after ho had dis covered it. There wero times when Ii would have sold it for a drink of water The next one they discovered they calle. tho Qoodenough mine. When thej came to the next one they had a littli falling out, and he named it the Con lntlon. The latter is tho ono I am in terested in. These wero all disposed o' by him for a handsome sum. And he it. now a three times millionaire. "Tho tombstono is one of his choicot relics, and he would not part with it fo. its weight In gold. Many attempts hav. been made to change tho town bj 'boomers,' who argue that tho strangi and gruesome title keeps out Easten capital, and by tho new comers. Legis lators have been elected pledged to in troduce a bill for that purpose, but Ed. with his money is always on hand to op pose it. Denver Republican. An Old New Orleans Custom. If you have plenty time to loaf and ob serve everything that pxsses before your gazo you will notico on nearly every pom in tho French quarters there aro littlr handbills tacked up and bearing th heading u Decedo. " Beneath this there u additional printing, all, however, iu French. These aro death notices, which sccined to bo used instead of tho newspa pers to announco tho invinclblo hand of utra Mors.

Tin l'lenaant and Instructive Game In troduced liy i Boston Schoolmn'nm. There is one woman In Bolton who is determined that her sax shall not debar her from putting a heavy mark on the neit feneration. Sho is n school teacher, and one of the few who do not under value their position and its influence. She has suffered a deal in her time from the bad maimers prevalent in publio places, and every year she has about SO boys mid girls between the ages of 7 and 9 in her power between five and six hours five days out of seven, and sho thinks that it will go hard if she does not do something toward inculcating manners into them and at the same timo hitting tho parents a side slap which may not bo without its result. This is one of her 'methoas; Once a week half an afternoon is given to rec reation, and she invents games for the amusement and instruction of her class, so that while they think they are playing they aro really learning something. Ono of these games, tho ono in fact which the youngsters enjoy most, is called "street car." The central aisle of tho classroom wljh its row of seats on cither side becomes the electric car. A boy is chosen for motor man ; this post is given t ) n boy who has been very good for the week, and In ji slm le way the teacher makes the class understand how tho elec tricity runs the car. Another boy is the conductor, and they havo paper checks for fares. The other children nre all pas sengers. They are supposed to bo busi ness men returning home to dinner and it is impressed upon them that they aro very tired and very anxious to read their papers and women who havo been shop ping or to the matinees. Ono by one tho children eigual the car. and tho conduc tor rings his bell, the motor man tums his crank, the passenger enters, walks down the aisle, and takes a Beat. Finally nil seats are taken, and to point tho play the bettor most of tho boys enter first and take tho chairs. Then thegirlsboard the improvised car. Tho boys being im pressed that they aro very tired, politely rise, ono by one, and civilly offer the girls the seats, until every ono is up but one boy, who is known in the game as the ". ." Then the teacher enters. She plays her own part, and tho children nre supposed to bo her old pupils, who nro glad to see her, and all tho girls even nro anxious that she should tako their seats, and still the "pig, " glanced nt with sur prise by all tho children, sticks to his Boat. Now, this game is very popular with the class, but no ono enjoys being tho "pig." Tho teacher snys that sho already notes tho great improvement which her pupils show in manners. They are most anx ious to do civil things ,for ono another, "and," remarks tho teacher, "do you not think that they tell tills story at homo? Do you not think that tho pig gets shown up by those little ones in his true colors ? I do not know if tho papas and older brothers aro shamed by it, but I am euro that I hopo they are, and I mean them to bo, "Boston Homo Journal. A Queer Eton Custom. The first or second day of every term, when the whole school has returned, ii sort of slave market is held ill each house, at which the upper boys liavo the privi lege of choosing from among tho lower boys their own particular fag for tho next three mouths or bo. In some houses, where the lower boys thrft is, boys who havo not reached the fifth form are numerous, an upper boy may havo two Buch servitors for his own exclusive use, if ho thinks he wants them. Tho right of selection is exercised ac cording to seniority, tho boys known to be tho quickest and best servants being snapped up first, except in tho case of now boys, when looks havo to bo taken as credentials as often as not, to the ulti mate disgust of tho fagmaster, for the smartest looking boys nro often the great est duffers at their work. Tho duties of an Eton fag are many nnd various. Not a fow of them would bo declined by their own fathers' ser vants at home as far too menial to suifr the dignity of tho modern James de la Pluehe. The fag is responsible for get ting his master out of bed in timo for oarly school a dangerous and thankless task to perform on a big boy who. is a hard sleeper, free with his lists, and quick at flinging boots when onco awakened. School over, the fag has to prepare Ids master's breakfast. He lays tho cloth, makes the tea and toast woe betide him if the latter bo burned or cut too thick boils the eggs, and fries any extra lux uries in tho way of rashers or sand wiches his master may send liim to pur chase in tho town. The meal prepared, tho fag is- by no means free to go and get his own break fast, as ho has to wait at table, bo ready to fetch hot waiter from tho kitchon, and, if ordered, fly oft up town to ono of the "sock shocks" for ii pot of jam or mar malade. Ho is a lucky boy if he can snatch a clear 10 minutes for his break fast before the chapel bell begins to ring. Tho game round of duty has to be gone through again nt tea timo, tho only difference being that there is more timo to do it in, and fagmasters aro generally in a better temper when school for the day is over. But fagging nt meals is by no means the only service which tho lower boy has to render.- Ho has to scrape tho mud oil his master's football boots, to put his clothes away after cricketing or running with tho beagles, and takes notes to other boys In other In audition to their regular daily work for their own master, the lower boys have to fag in a desultory way for any upjier boy who may want thorn. At the. cry of "Lower boy!" shouted by any fel low above the lower division of the fifth form, every boy below the fifth lias to scamper out in answer to the summons, aud the hindermost in tho race is gener ally ordered off for whatever duty has to be performed. ': his is rather a hardship when a boy is biuy preparing his lessons for school, but ho would rather run the risk of getting into trouble in school than incur the wrath of n boy very little older than himself by "skulking." The head mas ter's birch does not inflict such wounds :i i the vigorously applied toasting fork of tin incensed fagmaster. On the whole, Eton boys do not seem l mind fagging much, and the system '.- rate Iim the advantage of being tin ,me for all. Every boy knows that tarnish he lias to fag at present he is cer tain to bo able to fag others in time. The lliisslau impress Deaf.

Douen't it begin to look as If the nine teenth century, oven in its lout decade, might outdo all tho famous "seven won ders of the world" that astonished the ancients? In the first place Uierolsa likelihood thnt we shall see, before tho century closes, a means of transit that will whisk us from New York to Phila delphia in less than an hour and from Philadelphia to Chicago between break fast and supper time. Experiments liave lately been made near Baltimore, which gives good promise that such re sults will bo obtained in tho not distant future. Electrlo power, on an ordinary railway, with motors and cars of peculiar con struction, is the means with which wo may hopo to travel at a speed of moro than a hundred miles an hour. In fact, it Is confidently believed by some com petent witnesses of the experiments that it will be possible to reach a speed of 20Q miles on hour. However it may bo as to maximum velocity, we have the indorse ment of experts as to the feasibility of running trains more than a hundred miles on hour under tho proposed system, without greater risk of derailment than is now experienced at less than half that speed. While experiments in this line are ap proaching fruition we hear some aston ishing reports of experiments for adapt ing the principle of tho pneumatio tube to passenger transit This principle is utilized in nearly all our large cities for tho transmission of small packets, such as news messages, money, small parcels in the shipping marts, and so on, and it would seem possible, from Buch results, to reach the acme of passenger transit. In fact it is rather strange that thU con summation has been so long delayed. The idea is not a new one. The titer of these lines traveled in a pneuuiatia car 25 years ago in the heart of the city of New York. Moses S. Beach, at that time proprietor of tho New York Si n, and his brother Alfred, then r.ml now one of the proprietors of the Scientific American, constructed a pneumatio rail way under the surface of Broadway, running from Murray to Wan-en street. Tho road, or rather the tube, was only about 100 yards long, but tho object waa to demonstrate the feasibility of pneu matic railways to do the work that after ward fell to tho elevated railroads. Tito experiment of the Beaches was Interesting and costly, but practically nothing more. Cars were run from ono end of the tube to the other filled with passengers. It was proved beyond doubt that tho pneumatic principle was broad enough to cover passenger transit. But the whole plan was crude and the results unsatisfactory. Many years of expert' ment were needed to bring tho system up to the level of practical usefulness. Tho "Broadway hole," as it was called by some of tho newspapers, was visited by thousands of people, who indulged in tho novelty or a short pneumatic excursion. but tho scheme was finally abandoned and now notlung but the "hole" is left. Recent accounts of experiments in Europe, however, give strong hope that the dream of the Messrs. Beach will soon be realized. Why Women Do Not Harry. No doubt there are many women very grand women they, are, toowho, like Miss Martineau, refuse to marry for physical considerations ill health; tho fear of hereditary disease; the desire to save the beloved husband that should have been from unnecessary burdens. All honor to such women; they are the silent martyrs. " 'Tla better to have loved and lost," etc. Such women are not unhappy. But the sad reason why most women do not marry is because they have not had a chance. 'When we read that there are C0,000 more unmarried women than men in Massachusetts alone, what shall we say of the rest of tho miscalled United States? Mrs. Wells wittily describes some one who had had "half an offer. " It is to be feared that some most lovable women have not even reached to that dreadful moment of sus pense. It is tho "Lost Chord," and deeply to be deplored. It is true that in many a retired village some halt dozen very clever, well educated, good women pass their lonely lives with no chance to "better their condition." No wonder that some of them make what their families call very bad marriages. On one point I do aixoe with Mrs. Wells, when she refers to tho horrible literature with which our market la Hooded, turn ing life into a dissecting room. That, indeed, may well frighten a susceptible and nervous woman. It is a shocking wrong and nuisance tha popular maga zines should publish stories which uro read by young girls, enabling them, as Mrs. Wells says, to count "the various Minis of kisses that mark the advppt ant) climax of a lover's regard, Lovo itself is just as subtle and unselfish as ever It wns ; passion is as true and noble ; but their parasites ore deadly." This Is a splendid summing up. But I do not- agree that such reading makes a girl "love her mother more, "or that she "stays nt home," growing more helpful, and finding "Indefinite interests enough to make single life yery pleasant, "Mrs, John Sherwood, in North American Re, view, Atter we nnv omea a man a tool ( always pleases us to liave him get inad and prove It.

One o them Is tlo men and tlio other is girls who don't happen to be present.
