In Muskogee a negro who drives the street sweeper has a fine bird dog, which walks ahead of the sweeper at night and carries a lighted lantern in his mouth. The other night as he was crossing the railroad track he stopped a minute to look back, and see if the sweeper was coming. Being a dog of happy disposition he wagged his tail, and incidentally wagged at the same time. The switching crew saw the light moving, and stopped their train. It moved again and they started, and the see- saw motion was kept up for some time, until the engineer was exhaust- ed in operdTing his reverse lever. He jumped off and ran back to see what the signals meant, and when he saw the cause of it he said something. It say that after this he will work only on signals that are given higher from the ground.—Kan- sas City Journal. Queen Adelaide. Adelaide, queen consort of William IV., king of Great Britain and Ireland, was the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Meiningen, a state in Germany. Adelaide was born in the year 1792. She was truly pious, be- ing so devoul in her religious obser- vances that she rarely took part in any of the simple and innocent forms of amusement so prevalent at that time in court circles. Indeed, it was this exemplary character which might be said to have won for her a king for a husband, for queen Charlotte of England, tues, recommended her as a fitting companion for® her third son, William, then duke of Clarence. At Charlotte's suggestion negotia- son and Adelaide were entered into. The match was speedily made, and the marriage took place in July, 1818. Although Adelaide and William were the parents of several children, they all died in infancy. In 1830 George IV. died, and, having no children to succeed him, the crown reverted to his surviving brother, next in line, William. During William and Adelaide’s reign the court of England assumed a pure and elevating atmosphere, proving a model for the young, something which :annot _be said of it at any former pe- iod. In the year 1837 William IV. died, ind as queen dowager Adelaide sur- vived him twelve years. She was pres- tne at the marriage of the young and peautiful Queen Victoria and the harming Prince Albert. Much of her ‘ater life was spent in works of chari- ly and religion.

In all the great, green, quiet park there was no little girl or boy to play with; but for all that, little Georgina, daughter, nev- er knew what it was to feel lonesome.

If she came suddenly upon one hiding in the grass or behind a stone, it frequently remained quite mo- tionless, curled up into the smallest possible space and pressed flat to the ground, only its watchful eye proving that it was wideawake and very anx- ious. In the leafy forest this would be its safest course, for there its protec- tive coloring would render it almost invisible, but in the open park, on the green grass, its inherited instinet for concealment failed it, and it was all too visible to friend or foe. Georgina would creep up ever so quietly and sit dowa beside it. Sometimes she even succeeded in stroking its soft coat. Then the mother deer would circle anxiously around, coming as near as she dared, her great ears thrown for- ward, every nerve tense, and ready to spring away at the least hostile move; but it always ended by the fawn sud- denly scrambling to its long thin legs, and, with little cries of alarm, dashing over the greensward to join its mother and find concealment in the deep sha- dows of the cool forest.—J. M. Gleeson in St. Nicholas. Prices of Slaves. “Slaves,” said the Socialist, smiling grimly, “should be interested in the price .of other slaves. Well, then: “Before the war a good strong man was worth $2500; a woman $1,- 500, a child, $500. “In-Rome, in the Golden Age, a la- borer only cost $100, and, sometimes, after a greqt victory and an influx of captives into the capital, it was pos- sible to buy strong, capable slaves for $5 apiece. ; “Skilled slaves, men with trades, brought higher prices.

The Chicago Tribune's Washington correspondent, examining some new . statistics collected hy the Census Bu- reau, finds that among the women of the United States between the ages of 16 and 20 one in three works for her living. They almost monopolize the werk of typewriting and stenography. Of the 5.000,000 working women in the United States, 44 per cent. are be- tween the ages of 16 and 24. The Chi- cago Tribune's correspondent argues from this that the girls get to work earlier than boys It seems to be a matter of averages. The women quite generally marry at the age of 25, and ohly réturn to work when they are widowed or divorced. Only a quarter of the total number cf male wage- earners are under 25 years of age, but the men work continueusly throughout their lives.

The carpenters claim the exclusive right to place their labels on caskets and the woodworkers declare if a man is buried in a coffin bearing such a label he goes to his last resting place to remain through all eternity in an “unfair” article.
