Some time since Lord Salislniry, tiie
Kn;,'lish Premier, issued n circular to the
representatives of her .Majesty's (iovern
inent in the principal cities of Europe
asking for information iih to what laws
are in force us to the carrying of firearms
by private persons in populous centers.
The reports received go to show that of
the twenty-four Slates comprised in the
' niuent of Europe there are Mringciit
,s reguhithig tue carrying of weapons
tn nil of them save in iH-imalk, the
Duchy of lltden, the Duchy of Cohurg,
Montenegro, the Netherlands, Norway

Turkey regulations on the subject exist,
but the provisions nre very elastic ami
ure seldom carried out.
The writer of u thoughtful article on
imihiiiig associations in Chicago makes
the point that they wiould be conducted
on the principle of furnishing money us
( iu aply ns possible to borrowers, and not
be conducted as u source of profit to in
vestors. He points out that in Philadel
phia, where, ho much has been accom
plished by the agency of these institu
tions, the into of interest has iilwayj beeu
low, and the temptation to tho subscrib
er to borrow has therefore been greater
than in in tiny other city, nud as a conse
quence an immense number of buildings
have beeu erected for tho use of people
who might, if they had not boos aided
by the mtsociiitioun, havo squandered
their money, Tho Idea seems to the bun
Francisco Chronicle a sound one and
miL'ht bo imitated with profit in that cvty,
whera mi.ny, if not all, of tho building

theory.
EOMANCE OF A STORE.
A tiny room, behind n liny chop. In
one corner, near the lire-place, an elderly
lady in a deep, cushioned chair a ludy
whose face bore traces of pain conquered,
sullering overcome, patient, delicate and
refined. Iter drew and nltit.idi) told the
Mory of invalidism. Opposite to her,
fctup.ding up and leaning iqiou tho
mantel-piece, a girl of twenty-one or
two; tall, straight and utrong, with a
face of fioiiie beauty,' jjreal resolution,
and sweet, womanly p-nee.
Khic'ia Lewis was the younger lady,
nnd her mot her the gentle invalid.
"Wl.ii-u are you going, dear? The
(hcp-l'i II did not ling," Mrs. Eewi.t said
lis lthotla move. I toward the door.
"To put up the tihiitteni. It is nine
O'clock."
"They lire so he ivy," the invalid
si.rhi'd.
"Kilt I am so Hiring," the girl an
swered, lightly.
Yet, us she lifted the heavy hhutler in
her small, w hite hands, she was not sorry
to have it taken from her into a strong,
masculine grasp, that quickly adjusted
the shutters, put up the iron bar, shot
the padlock bolt into place, locked it,
tun! gave the key to lihoda. Not u word
Kpokeu all this time, lint. a.s her cousin,
Prank Lewis, gave her th-i key, lihoda
tnid, dutnurcly and formally:
"Tiiiuik you."
tjtiite as formally, yet with a ring of
sarcasm in his voice, that had not
been in hers, he replied :
"You are very welcome."
She stood twisting the key in her
lingers till he said:
"Will?" Hut if he intended the word
for a question, them was no answer,
lihoda let her hands fall, and looked
straight before her. "Are you not going
to ask tne in?" Prank inquired.
"No."
"Fath'T has been here to-day 1"
"Y.s."
I lot his reiit f"
"Yes."
"tid told you to shut your door on
Uie"
"Yes."
" ' Yt i j es.' Can't ynuHpeak.Uhoda?"
"Not urn, . Some insults uro very hard
to bear; your fathers was olio of them."
She slipped in nt the store door a sue
spoke, nnd fastened it quickly. She. was
in total darkness, having closed the door
of the inner room as klie left it. For a
moment she stood leaning heavily upon
the counter, trenihlii'g violently, with
Jlie quick breathing Unit tells of sup-
p'cM.,i tear-. Only for a moment ; then
he went in to her mother, her sweet
face nil hive and cheerfulness. What
ever her hei.rtache was, it wus evidently
io' lo be added to hoc mother a burdens.
Prank, left so unceremoniously, gave
vent to his chagrin in it low whistle,
thrust his hauda deep into his overcoat
ioci.it, itinl strode homeward. It win a
heeness windv eveiiiu;;, and chilled, an-
tcivtl mid miserable, the young man
isscd aside hat and coat m the hall of
his father's pretentious house, and entered
parlor. A grand room, richly fur
nished, in sharp contrast to the shabby
little back parlor where Prank had in-
'.ciide.l to pass the next hour.
Mr. Lewis was sealed beside an open
jrnte, rending the evening newspaper.
Me did not look up as Ins son drew up a
:liair near his own, and stud:
"Father, what have you been saying
l.o-day to Uhoila?"
"1 gave her to understand that I did
lot want a pennilcsa daughter-in-law."
"Father: '
"You niav as well understand the same.
twill not encourage such nonsense any
onger. You are old enough now to drop
lirtations, and think Hcriously of inar
illge." "I won't stand it," cried Frank, hotly.
"Won't stand what?'
"Any interference between Hhoda and
myself. I mean to win lihoda for my
wife; nnd 1 meant it when nhn wore long
iraids and short dresses; when she lived
!n a house us grand as this one."
"All very well then. Matters are
lifTeient now."
"There is no difference in my love for
Jhoda."
"A pauper! The daughter of bank
rupt w ho committed nucidc!"
"Y'our brother!"
"Well, what of that! Ho never asked
lie to help him, or " was tho linrsli
oiee husky? Frank wondered "I might
lave been idiot enough to do it!"
"It was a pity lie could not know that.
Father!" in a softenod tone, "don't stand
between Hhoda and ine! I won't give
her up, but you make, her hard to win.
?he is us proud to-day as sho was when
ler earnige drove up to our door, and she
nought you fruit from her hot-house.
No, I am wrong! Bho was not proud,
;hen, Heaven bless her I but sho is now!"
"lleggnrs havo no right to bo proud!
I won't have it! Do you understand?
if you persist in this folly, you may suit
fourself to tho situation, for your allow
ince stops; stops, understand, tho day
you propose, to your cousin Hhoda. You
ran find a home and au incoino else
where." "I don't mind that threat, but I should
bo very unhappy if I left you alone,
father."
"Don't do it, then."
"Hut it will inako my Ufa utterly
wretched to give up my cousin."
"liah! Go to bed. You're head
ttroug boy, uud you have not tasted pov
erty yet. Keep your heroics till you
have."
Frank Lewis knew that there were
dome moods in which his father was
utterly stubborn, nnd that to argiio was
to take time for no result. So he ac
reptcd his dis:nissal, and went to his
own room. Thinking deeply, ho came
to the resolution to try hi jmwer to con
quer fortuno before seeing lihoda again.
She knew he loved her, and if his love
was returned, would trut him; If she
cared for him only in a cousinly way,
then the separation might help him to
bear a later disappointment. Ho would
not desert his father, but perhnps when
he had proved himself no braggart, his
father might relent.
It was dreary enough in the weeks
that followed in tho tiny parlor, behind
the little stationer's store where Khodn
Lewis strove to keep tho wolf from the
door, llrought up in utter Ignorance of
business, the young storekeeper had de
pended unconsciously upon her cousin
Frank in all financial difficulties. Frank
had taught her how to keep her books,
had given her instruction about renew
ing her slock in trade, managed her
bunking liutncs, hud been her adviser
and best friend from the day when she
returned from her father's funeral, to
know idie must lie breadwinner for her
self and her invalid mother. She had I
never looked upon him as a lover, only !
us her very dear cousin, until her uneto .
ruddy opened lier eye and heart by in
forming her of the penaltv attached to
his sou's courtship. Then love awakened '
to sling Iter sharply when pride fornaite
her cherishing the sweet intruder.
Yet, vth'le she s 'Tered it heiirt, there
was a in.igie of pro-oeri'.y nh iiit tin; tiny
store. Customers flocked to her, nnd she
found sale for a better class of goods than
she had ventured upon fit first. Sho had I
some skill in water-color painting, no
wonderful talent, but sufikxent capacity j
for much of t'ie pretty decorating, just
at that time ('lining into fashion. For
what site itid leisure to accomplish in
that line, she found quick sale at large
profit.
Her sorust grief was in her mother's
wasting health, nud the certainty that a
long standing disease must terminate fa
tally, though the decline was very slow.
Heart ami brain were Horely taxed, the
more that she had been so carefully
guarded from all care nnd sorrow during
her father's life, liut sho wa brave and
faithful in t.ie discharge of daily duty,
trusting in t Sod's care for her future, as
humbly us a hild trusts its mother.
Two years had passed since Frank
Lewis put up her shutters, when he wrote
to her from another city, telling her that
he had n good position, was working
faithfully lo make himself independent,
and nsking her to be bin wife if his in
come ever filled his pockets sutliciently to
start a home.
"I tried to work in my old home, to ho
miir my father," he wro'te, "hut It was bet
ter for iu) to he away for a time."
It w:w a strange, deep happiness that
met this letter, for Hhoda knew she
loved her cousin ns tho ono lovo of her
life. Sho wroto back nt once, frankly
and lovingly, and the correspondence bo
came her ray of sunshine in her sorrow
for her mother and her daily toil for
bread. Still the months rolled into yearn,,
Hhoda was left motherloss, nnd the stern
old man in the gratul homo Frank hr.d
left grew more lonely and desolate us ngo
crept on, till four years hud passed, and
Frank came for his bride.
iSefore seeking her ho went to his old
home, nnd unannounced, entered the
room where his father sat musing idly,
his hands renting ou his lap, hi eyes
lied upon the lire. lie did not look up
as Frank entered, thinking it was n ser
vant who came in, mid his son's heart
sank as he saw how old and worn he
looked. Surely, four years ago his hair
was not so gray and thin, his face so
deeply lined.' Suddenly ho roused him
self, looked toward the door, nnd then,
opening his arms, cried, with yearning
tenderness :
"Mylniy! Frank, my Ron !"
It was long before he could do more
than stroke his son's hands nnd hnir,
speaking fondest word of affection.
"Y'ou will not leave me ugain, Frank?"
ho pleaded.
"Not unless you forbid Hhoda to bo
here, too."
"So, so! Y'ou hnvc not wavered, then,
in all these four years?"
"Have uot my letters told you so
much?"
"Hight! Yes, yes, you nre constant.
Y'ou thought me a hard father, Frankl"
"Only in thin one thing. Y'ou have
been a good father to me."
"Hut uot a kind one? I see whero I
made a mistake. Hut I meant only kind
ness, Frank ; only kindness. I married
when I was young liko yourself, tho
son of a rich father. My wifowas a but
terfly of fashion. I was an earnest man,
striving to do lifo's duties faithfully. I
was utterly miserable in my married life,
nnd wherever I looked I sco how money
ami its possession crushed out real love.
Wheu you first loved Hhoda you wero
mere children, but even then I hoped it
was transcient fancy. Then came my
brother's misfortunes, uud Hhodu'i op
portunity to provo herself a strong, true,
woman, or a feeblo nursling of luxury.
You, too, were drifting into tho idle fol
lies of u man w ithout a purpose in life.
I resolved to test you Inith, to provo your
love nnd mauhood, as I wus proving
Hhoda's courage.
"Well, well, my dear boy, you were
not quito so independent, after all, on
you fancied. My letters procured you
the favorable reception you met with at
Morse & Co.'s, und , half your salary
came out of my pocket. I have watched
your cousin's interests, too. 8he would
be surprised if sho knew how largo a
customer I have been, by proxy, and
how cnrcfully I have respected her hon
est pride, whilo putting money in hor till.
It is all over. I am au old man, Hhoda
is alone, so you must como to mo. Shull
we go now and see Hhoda?"
They had turned the corner of tho
street whero tho littlo storo was located,
when Frank, gently pushing his father
back, whispered:
'Wait one moment."
Hhoda was standing in the doorway,
and her errand-boy was putting lp the
shutters, when they were taken from hi
hands.
You can go," Frank said, deftly
taking hi work nnd uravely attending
to it until he gave the key to Khoda.
"Thank," she said, having hail time
to gnin composure after the first shock of
surprise.
"May I come In?"
"And may I cor.ic, too!" said A third
voice.
"Uncle William!"
"Yes, my dear. Come Frank."
Then the store door closed behind the
three, and customers were fasteued out;
while the old story ends, and a new life
opens for my hero nnd heroine. Aim

History nnd Orlirln nf Wheat.
Wheat, which is now the bread corn
of twelve European nations, and is fast
supplanting maize in America and several
Inferior grains in India, was no doubt
widely grown in the prehistoric world.
The Chinese cultivated it i.'M 11. C. nsa
gift direct from heaven; the Egyptian
attributed its origin to Isisand the Greek
to Ceres.
Atuiert monument show that the
cultivation of wheat had been established
in Egypt before the invasion of tho
shepherd, and there i evidence that
more productive varieties of wheat havo
taken the place of one, nt least, of the
nneletit sorts. Innumerable varieties,
exist of common wheat. Colonel Le
Conteur, of Jersey, cultivated ISO
vaiidi". Mr. Darwin mentions n French
gentleman who had collected W'li
varieties, nnd tiu' great linn of seed
Merchants, Yiltnoi in-Atidrieiix et Cie.,
cultivate about twice as ninny in their
grounds near Paris. In their recent work
on "Le Meilleurs Hies," M. Henry L. de
Yilmorin has described sixty-eight
varieties of best wheat, which tie has
classed into seven groups, though these
groups can hardly be called distinct
species, since M. Henry L. Yilmorin ha
crossbreed three of them and ha found
the offspring fertile. Three small-grained
varieties of common wheat were culti
vated by the first lake dweller of Switzer
land nnd of Italy, by the people of
Hungary in the stone age, and by tiie
Egyptian on the evidence of a brick of
pyramid in which n grain was imbedded,
and to which the dale of .T.I.VJ 11. C. hits
been unsigned. i
The existence of name for wheat in
the most ancient languages confirms this
evidence of the antiquity of its culture in
nil the more temperate part of Europe,
Asia nnd Africa, but it kccins improbable
that wheat has ever been found growing
persistently in a wild state, although the
fact litis often been nsserted by poets,
travelers and historians. bUUulurg 1U
tine. destructive Force In Warfare.
A French officer, in speaking of melin
ite to a representative of the Timtn, said:
"Our shells for field artillery, as well a
those for our fort nnd siege guns, are
charged with melinite. What melinite
is we do no not know, nud if wo knew
we should bo very careful not to tell."
Both the Italian and the German havo
sent spies to discover tho secret, and to
oiler money for even the smallest frag
ment, but they havo all been captured.
All that can be said is that, according
to a treatise published in 1SS2, melinite
is composed (f melted picric neid. Hut
in the interval our artilleries havo per
fected the discovery of M. Turpin. They
have made melinite a tractable product.
The effects of this explosive were fully de
monstrated in soineevpei iiiientsat the Fort
of Malmaisoti in 1 hStl. Melinite is ho
safe that in three years only one accident
ho occurred, that at tho arseuel of Hel
fort. One the other hand n hundred ac
cident havo occurred from gelatiuc
alone in thirty years.
There hit never been accident in draw
ing the charges, nor one from bursting
in the gun. A much cannot bo said
for rohurite, hellotite, or the other sub
stances employed by foreign States.
What, it is asked, will become of uforti
cution in face of this redoubtable agent (
Some think nnd say they arc doomed;
others, like General Hrinlmont, recom
mend the use of armored circular forts.
It is said that tho shell will glance oil
these without doing any damage. Hut
experiment. at Chalons have show n that
turrets enjoy no immunity ugainst a
close and continuous tire.
Professional Sparrow Catchers.
Two men from Indianapolis following
a new vocation have been in Louisville.
They nre professional hunters of English
sparrows, and they sell tho birds to the
Indiiinnoh gun clubs or to trap shoot
ers of tho vicinity.
Tho two men wero equipped with an
immense net in which they caught the
birds. Tho hitter arc always very numer
ous around two large churches on llroud
way, Louisville, w hich have ivy-covered
fronts. The men obtained permission
from the church officers to catch all the
birds they could, und followed by a
considerable and carious crowd they be
gan their hunt. They threw their net
over a hirgo purt of the front of ono of
tho churches nud entrapped hundreds of
tho birds. Many of them got away, but
many moro did not, and the haul was re
peated several times, with tho same suc
cess. At tho other church they had the
same good fortune. They visited several
largo bindings, and during their ten
days' stay at Louisvillo they caught over
4000 sparrows. They get about two dob
him for 100 of the birds.
