"There Is no one who has to be a
better judge of human nature," said a
Broadway gundcalor, .''tlinn a man in
my business. 1 enn sue a man up the
minutu lie steps into my store, and if I
notico anything peculiar in his manner I
watch him as clo.'dy as a cut does a
mouse. What for? Why, because I
don't want my place made the scene of a
rensational suicide if I can help it. I
began iuircss here in 1 "!, and during
that period mmo rather exciting in
cidents have happened in front of my
counter. . et mc sec, I believe it was in
li(," and the dealer scratched his head
in a rcmiuisccnt manner, ''that I was at
my desk one morning making out some
bills, when a gentleman ftdly six feet in
height and broad shoulders in pro
portion, enmo in. 'Will you let me see
8omo of your revolvers !' ho asked, in an
ordinary tone; 'I am desirous of getting
one for target practice' I showed him
several 01 the finest I had in the cae,hut
they didn t t-eem to suit him. Then he
asked to sco a derringer. This request,
coupled with an indefinable feel
ing that I had already felt that
thero was something wrong about the
man, aroused my suspicions. What on
earth can ho want of a derringer for tar
get practice: I said to myself, but I
showed him one. lie said he would
take it, and asked for a quantity of cart
ridges to go wiih it. 'I am very par
ticular about my cartridges,' ho said, as
I was about to do them u,i. 'Will you
kindly open one of the boxes so that I
may ex uninc them.' The request seemed
reasonable, and 1 did so. He glanced at
tho cartridges, took a few from the box,
examined them, and then replaced them,
with the remark: '1 guess they're all
right. You may do the package up.'
His calm mu.ncr partially allayed my
suspicions and I started to wrap up the
revolver and cartridges, when the man
suduenly exclaimed . 'I!y dove! that's a
funny thing,1 pointing toward the door.
I turned my head, and, seeing nothing
unusual, took a step or two in the di
rection ho pointed. Still seeing nothing
stiange, I turned to ask him what he re
ferred to. I didn't ask him anytlrng,
though, but instead umped forward just
inxtime to prei cut hi9 brains being scat
tered upon the floor. While my head
hud been turned ho had slipped a cart
' ridjro which ho had concealed in his
hand into the revolver, placed the muzle
aga nst his temple, and was about to
pull the tr gger as I sprang upon him.
My fingers closed on the hammer just as
' it was coming down, and broke its force
so that the cartridge was indented but
the lea-t bit, not enough to fire it. The
man seemed as cool as a c xumber, and
surrendered the weapon to mo with
out a word. I put it back in the
case, and as I did so he looked at
me inquiringly. 'Won't you sell it to
me?' lie asked, and when I replied most
emphatically in the negative he said:

out, humming a fragment of a then
popu'ar air. I have never seen the ma i
since, but lor weeks I watched the
papers to see if a gentleman of his de
scription had killed himself. If ho did I
never found any account of it."
"Do you think he killed h m-clfi"
"I do not, for this reason. If you
have ever investigated cases of suicide
you mu-tt have noticed that a person
generally kills himself upon the impulse
of the moment. Of course thero nie ex
ceptions to this rule, but they generally
occur among tho lower clashes. -.f a
man of any intelligence yields to a sui

"Have you ever had any other strange
experiences of a similar nature?"
"I can't remember any just like that I
have told you about, but I have had
other strange ones. One morning a
woman who was refined looking and had
quite ladyliko manners, came in and
asked to Bee some revolvers. I showed
""""""'. some from which she selected one.
ttvd'xW do,' she said, 'please load
JT.rme.' 1 told her that I couldn't do
that, as it was against my rules, bhe
urged me for some little time to
load it, but 1 still refused. 'Very
well, keep it then,' and sailed out
in an indignant manner. Hardly had
she passed through the door when a de
tective with whom I was well acquainted
came in. 'Did you sell that lady a re
volver?' he asked. I told him I had
not. 'Very well, don't sell her one if
she should come here again,' he said,
and rushed out alter her. Either the
same or following day she came in
again. 'I'll take that revolver,' she
said. 'I've got a friend who will load
it for me.' 'I am sorry, madame,' I re
plied, 'but I cannot sell it to you.'
'Can't sell it to me,' she exclaimed.
That's strange. What's the reason you
can't i' I told her that I could givo her
no reason, but I could not sell her the
revolver, r-he appeared very indignant,
and went out, simply saying sho would
buy one somewhere else. A few days
after I aw my friend, the detective, and
he told me that the ludy was well known
in society, where she was a great favor
vTite. 'She has a fine looking hushand,
ho ia devoted to her ' he said, 'but at
times she becomes insanely ealous of
' him tor no cause at all. At such times
she is really out of her mind, and unless
ratchet! would do herself or him some
injury. J-.very two or three months she
has those spells, whic h generally lust a
day or two and then pass awav. At
such times I am employed to watch her.
I get well paid for doing it, or you can
bet I'd steer clear of such work. It's no
picnic, I can assure you.'"
"Did you ever see the lady again?"
"Yes. Not long after 6he pai-sed here
leaning on the aim of a tall, handsome
gentleman, whom, I mpio?e, was her
husbaud. She was chatting gayly with
him, and both icemed supremely happy.
As they pasted I saw her glance in
my direction, but apparently without
recognition. I understand that she is
entirely cured now.
"There is one more curious case that
I want to tell you of, and then I'll stop.
One cold March afternoon three small
boys, the oldest of whom could not
have been over 13, swaggered into my
store and asked 'ter see 6ome of them
puns and pistols.' I showed them some
rifles and revolvers, and the oldest one
of the crowd selected a Hemiugton rifle,
two revolvers, a quantity of ammunition,
three bowie knives and some fishing
tackle. The whole bill amounted to
and they settled it then and there.
Of course, I knew there was something
wrong, and so while the boys were select
ing their outfit I sent my ollice boy out
with a note on which I had written
'Call the first policeman you come across.'
The policeman came and took the boys,
outfit and all, to the station ho.ise. When
the ca-e came up before Justice Whitg

Pnenmonin's Fatal Progress.
According to a medical contemporary,
Dr. Oouverncur L. Smith, of New York,
has just given some interesting and
startling facts in regard to pneumonia.
Dr irmith points out that the d sease is
becoming worso every year, increasing
rathing than decreasing, both in the
number of cases and the percentage of
mortality. The statistics of the Penn
sylvania Hospital shows that the mor
tality from pneumonia there advanced
from 6 percent, iu lS47to 181 per cent,
in 1887, and ol percent, in 1H80. Simi
larly, in the New York Hospital the
ratio of mortality from this disease is
more than double what it was in 1878.
Thirty or forty years ugo it was regarded
as serious, but it did not excite anything
like the a!rm it does to-day. Dr.
Smith is rather inclined to believe that
the medical art, instead of progressing
in its treatment of pneumonia, has actu
ally gone back; and holds that the old
methods of treating tho disease at the
time it was le-.s deadly to have been
abandoned for methods more finical but
less etlicacious. The first requisite, he
insists, is a "superabundance of pure air
1 about the patient. In pneumonia the
breathing apparatus only partially per
! forms its functions, for the diseased
fmrts of the lungs are substantially use
ess. 'The working portion must per
form the work of two lungs for a week
or ten days iu order to maintain the
blood in u proper condition to sustain
life;' and, the:efore, 'the patient re
quires purer air and vastly more than one
in sound health. ' 'Pure a r as a remedial
acut in the management of pneumonia
and other disorders, both acute and
chronic, has ever been a more potent
ally of therapeutics than any panacea
oUcrcd by alc hemy or any hobbledehoy
presented by modern chemistry."

One of this week's steamships brought
over more aod prettier cane and umbrel
la novelties than have ever been import

consist oi rrencb and r-panh creations,

among the lor, and when capped and
swedged with beautifully grained ivory
they make canes which delight the eye

The Kgyptian olive wood is used priu

Uouillion blonde, a very light wood

The Old Man's tjertiiro.
I shall never forget the comniencment of
the temperance rotortn. 1 was a child at the
time, nlniiit tn jenrs of ape. Our home had
every comfort, and inv parents idolize I mo.
Wine was often on the table, and both my
father and lny mother frequently (rave it to
mo in tho bottom of the kIhss. Ono Sun. lay,
at church, there wan a startling ennounee
inont made to our people. 1 knew nothing
of it Import, but ther.i was inn 'h whisper
ing among the men. The pastor said that on
tho next evi niu there would lie a temper
ance meeting, and an address upon the evils
of nueliiiM'ianeo in the use of alcoholic
drinks. He expressed himself ignorant of
the mooting, ami could not say what course
would be best to pursue. The subject of the
meeting came up at ti e table after the ser
vice, and I questioned niy father about it
with all the curious eaeerness of a child.
The whjsier auit words which had been
dropped in my hearing clothed the whole
Affair in great mystery to me, and 1 was all
eagerness to learn of this same strange thing.
3iv lather snia it was some scheme to unite
L hnrch and State.
The niuht caiut. and troops of peop'e
KAthe'ed cm the tnvern stps, and I heard
the, est and lau.cn, and saw drunken men
reeling out of tho 1 nr room. 1 urged lny
lather to let me go, but he refused. I iniby
thinking It would be an innocent gratifica
tion of my curiosity, hejmt on his ha. and
(Missed ai-nss the green be the church. I re
member well how all the people aiiwared as
tliey came in, seeming ta wonder what kind
of an exhibition was to come off. Ill the
omer was tho tavern-keeper, and around
him a number of friends. For an hour the
eopIe of the plai-e continued coming iu, un
iil there whs a house lull. All were curiously
watching the dcor wondering what would
next apr. The pastor stoie in and took
Ins s,at w n inn a pillar un lei' (be gallery, as
if doubtful of the propriety f being there at
all. Two men finally came iu and took their
seats near the altar. All eyes were fixed
upon them, and a great stillness prevailed the
house.
The men were unlike In appearance, one
being short and thick in build, the other till
and well-formed. The younger had tho man
ner and dress of a clergyman, a full round
face, and quiet, good lmtured look, aa he
eisurelv looked around the audience. Hut
my childish interest was ail in the old man.
w.th his broad, deep (tint and unusual
height; looking giant-like, as he strode up
the aisle, his hair was white, his brow
deeply teamed with furrows, and around his
hamisome mouth l.nesof calm and touching
sadness. His eye was black and rest, and
.inilled as the tavern keeper uttered a low
lest aloud. His 1 ps were compressed, and a
nmson flush cauio and went over his late
cheek. One arm was otr aliove the elbow,
and there was a wi,d scar over his richt eye.
I'ue younger arose and stated the ob.;ect of
tiie meeting, and asked if there was a clergy
man prtscnt to open with prayer.
Our pastor kept his seat, and the speaker
himself made a short prayer, and then made
a short address, at the conclusion calling
ui on any one present to make remarks.
The pastor arose under the gal ery and
attacked the position of the speaker. Using
the argument I have otten heard since, and
concluded by denouncing those engaged in
the new movement as medd esome lunatics,
who wished to bar up ttie time-honored
usagti of good society, and Injure the busi
ness of resectable men. At the conclusion
of his remarks, the tavern-keeper and his
f r. ends got up a cheer, and the current of
foe ing was evidently against the strangers
and their plan.
While the pastor was speaking the old man
nati nxea ins uarn eye utkin turn,
leaned forward a if t t Cairn every word.
As th astor took bis s. at. the old man
arCKe.his tall form towering in its symmetry,
and his che-t swelling ns he inhaled his
breath throueli his thin, dilated nostrils.
1 o me at the tune there was something awe
inspiring and grand in the appearance of the
old man, as he stood with his lull ga.e upon
tne audience. Ins t-eth shut hard, and a
silence like that of death throughout the
church. He bent his rye upon the tavern
keeper, and that peculiar eye liu.-ered and
k:nuled for half a moment. Tbo scar grew
red upon his forehead, and I eneuth the
heavy eyebrows his eyes glittered and
glowed like those of a scrp -lit. The tavern
keeper quailed tiefore the searching glance,
and 1 felt a relief when the old man with
drew bis enze. For a moment be seemed
lost in thought, and then in a low and
tremulous tone commenced. There was
depth iu that voice, a thriving pathos and
sweetness, which riveted every heart, in the
house before the first period had been
sounded. My father's attention bad i ecoine
fixed on the speaker with an ntereot which I
had never before seen him exhibit,
1 can but briefly remember the substance
of what the old man said though the Bcene
was vivid before me as any that I ever wit
nessed. "My friends, I am a stranger in your vil
lage, "and I trust 1 may rail you friends. A
new Btar has aris.in, and t iere is hope in the
dark night which bancs like a pull of gloom
over our country." Wiib a thrilling depth of
voice Hie speaker continued:
"O (iod. Thou wholookest with compas
sion upon the moaterrinK of earth's chiliben.
1 thank Thee that a braen scriient has been
lifted, upon which the drunken ci n look and
lie helped; that a beacon has burst out upon
the darkness that surrounds him, which shall
L'uiile back to honor and heaven the bruised
and weary wanderer."
It is strange what power there is in sonif
voices. The speaki-r was s'ow and unmoved
tit a tear trembled in every eye, and liefore
knew why, a tear droppe I upon mv hand,
J illowed by others, like iuindros. The ol i
nan brushed one from his own eyes, an 1 co.i
tinned:
"Men and Christians, vou have just heard
i hat I am a vagrant and fanatic. Iain not.
As God knows my own sad heart, I came hen
0 do good. Heir me and be just: I am ne
old man, standing alone t th end of lilc'v
- urney; there is deep sorrow iu inv hear
ind tears in mv eves. I have ourneved ove1
1 dark and beaeonless ocean, and all li e'.
hopes have been wrecked, 1 am without
home, friends or kindred upon earth, and
ook with longing to the n st of the id hi ol
death, without Inends, kindred or home! ll
was not so once!"
No one could withstand the touching
pathos of the o'd man. I noticed a teal
trembling on the lid of niv father's eyt
and 1 was no more ashaim d of niy own.
"No my triends, it was not so once! Awav
over the dark wavei which have wracked
tny hopes, there is a blessed light of happi
ness and home; I reach acrain couvuls vely
or the fehrines of the household idoU, that
mice were now mine no more."
The old man seemed looking through
wicy upon some bright vit-i'm. hii liis apart
out tinker extended. involuntarily turned
ii the d rection where it (oiuted, dreading
o see some shadow invoked by its move
m nts. ,
"I once had a mother. With her heart
-rushed with sorrow she went down to the
rave. I once had a wi'e as f air a woman
-ever smiled in nn artbly home, her eyes
s mild as a summer sky, and her heart a
aithful and true aa ever guarded ann
herished a husband's love. Her eyes grew
lira as the floods of sorrow washu
way their brightness, and the loving
neart was broken. 1 once bad a noble, e
brave and beautiful boy, but he was driven
out from the ruins of bis home, en 1 inv
heart yearns to know if he yit livej. I o ic:
had a liai.e a sweet, smiling bane, hut my
hand le,ln yed it, and it lives with the line
who loves children. iJo not lie startled,
triends! lam not a murderer in the com
mon acceptation of the term. Yet there is a
light in my evening sky. A spirit mother is
ioices over the return of her pi otial sou

visits me at nightfall, and I fe.-l the hal

;ive the sorrow in,' old man for his treatment
which drove him into the world, and the
blow which manned him lor life. God for
give me lor the rum I have brought upon m
and mine.'1
I He again wiped a tear from bis eye. Ill
father watc hed hiiu with a strange interest,
aid a countenance uuuMiully paie, and c
;lted by buine .trunue emotion.
"1 was om.o a fanatic, and followed tl.

The speaker ceae I a moment, and buried
ois fiii-e in his han Is, ns if to shut out Rome
earful dream, and Ins dee i chest heaved
like a storm swep sea. My father had arisen
trom h s so .t and was Iteming forward, his

Aeain the old man hqweii and wept, and
all that were in the honso went with him. In
tones of love and heart broken pathos, the
old man cone u led:
"1 was arrested, an 1 for months raved in
delirium. 1 awoke, was sentenced to prison
for ton years; tint no torture could have been
like those I endured in my own bosom. Oh,
Gi d.no! 1 am not a lana'ic! I wish to in
jure no one. Hut while I live, let me strive
lo warn others not to enter the path which
has been ao dark a on to nio."
The old man sat down, but a spell as deep
and slronf as sunn wi ai d s breath rested
niton the audience, iloii'ls could have been
heard iu their isatin, and tears to fall. The

My father tremhled, and held up the left
arm, from whicti the left hand had beeu
fevered. They both looked lor a moment ia
each other's eyes, an I reeled and gaspeib
"Mv ovvn .njuied son!"
"My fath !!"
They fell upon each other's nock and wept,
and it seemed that their souls would glow

Farting the Hair.
"On the right, if you please," tald a
representative of the Call to a tonsorial
artist, who, brush and comb in hand,
was about to part hit hair on the left
tide of the head.
'AH right, sir," remarked the knight
of tho brush and comb; "was going to
part It on the other side from force of
habit."
"How many people part the hair on
the right sldel"
"Miould say less than one In twenty."
"And why do so many men part it
on tho loft side?''
'Because," replied the artist, brushing
back a stray lock, "they've been brought
up to it from infancy. A mother facing
her boy always holds the comb in her
right hand, and It being easiest to comb
the hair from left to right, she parts it
on the left. Tho boy w hen ho grows up
and is able to comb his own hair finds
the part on that side, and follows tho
line marked out by his mother. That's
why tho maiority of men part on tho
left." San Francitro Call.
