that he was just 112,500richer than be was before he secured thelittlo ticket -

"For a long time," said Mr. Stadler,there has been an elderly gentlemancoming in here each month with Louis-iana State Lottery tickets for sale. Lastmonth I thought more out of friend-ship than anything else that I wouldbuy a dollar ticket. I did so and won

10. This month I invested the 10 intwo er tickets, one of whichas you already know, has drawn

Mr. Stadler took his ticket to bisfriend, Manager Hoey, of the AdamsExpress Company, for collection. Yes-terday be received the money all rightand generously drew his check for ahandsome sum in favor of the old gen-tlemen that sold him the ticket, andpromised to make him a present of 100,- -000 if be draws tbo capital prize of1300,000., A feature in recent drawings has been

the good fortune that has attended thecustomers of the Louisiana State Lot-tery in this city and vicinity. Not longsince two Brooklyn plasterers had thegood fortune to draw 115,000 upon aninvestment of $1 each, they havingagreed to go shares on what they won.There was E. Amsden, the printer at137 8th Btreet., who drew 15,000, andCassagnac & Vieu, the feather mer-chants at 8 West 3rd st., who drew $2,-60- 0,

and the restaurant keeper onBleecker st., who struck a big prize, andwhose luck led most of these mentionedinto going into the lottery. New YorhDaily Nan, AugustJV

A Ttiiy oflhe Present."It appears to me," said another man

in the party, "that the youngsters nowadays go ahead much faster than theydid when I was young. Now, for in-stance, the other day I overheard mysmall son call his little sister a 'chippy.'1 reproved him for so doin;, when heanswered, 'AH boys is kids, and all girlsis chippies,' as though wondering at myignorance of the current vernacular.When I awoke the other morning Ifound the boy wide awake in his crib be-side the bed. As I turned to look athim he saw that my eyes were open,and he said to me: Pa, I've got a newone for you,' Of course, I naturallyexpressed a desire to hear it. nestinghimself upon one elbow, he looked mesquare in the face and recited this:" A big bull pup with a curled up tail,A very small boy with a big tin pail:They tried thin scheme, but it would not do,And they buried the boy where the daises

grew.'"Well, of course, I howled. If I had

ever had the nerve to spring such an epicon my own father when I was his age Iwould have been obliged to stand up tomy meal's for a week. It only goes toshow the precocity of the youth of thepreseut day."

The Value of a Home.A city which has the largest share ot

individual home owners has the smallestshare of dangerous classes. A man whoowns a home, or who is successfullytrying to own a home, can never beturned into an Ishmaelite, a Bohemianor an anarchist In struggling againstthe tenement house system, and in strug-gling for a home, heroes are made outof common clay. No man can rent ahome. Let every means which businessenterprise can devise to further home-ownin-

be encouraged. There wasnever an age nor a day when it wastruer than now that "There's no placelike home." Lewiston, Me., Journal,

Mrs. Harrison exxiressed great surprise when khe read the account ia themorning papers of John F. Elliott, theBan Quentio prisoner who was pardonedtnrougn ner luusrueBuvu. duo receiveaa letter from bim a year ago in which hesent a poem composed by himself on thebattle of "Besacca." He did not ask forpardon, but sail in tin letter that hehad reduced bis term from seven to fiveyears by good behavior. A lady whowaa with Mrs. Harrison in Iodianapolisat the time wrote acknowledging theletter, and later sent a letter asking theprison authorities about John F. Elliott'scharacter. The chaplain, William H.Hilt, answered, and in his letter usedthe words: "I know Elliott well, andcan show vou that he ia deserving andnot one of the criminal class. lie hasbeen unjustly sent here ty rank per-jury. I hope he may be panioned be-fore the expiration of his sentence."Mrs. Harrison became interested in thecase, as everything pointed to the factElliott was trying to reform. Reason-ing that his sentence would expire inNovember and a pardon two or threemonths before his time would give himonce more a fair standing before theworld, she sent copies of the letters inher possession to Senator Stanford, to-gether with a request for him to lookinto the case. The papers were tran-smitted through lnrn to Gov. Water-man, and John F. Elliott became a freeman. This is the first instance of an in-tercession on Mrs. Harrison's part, al-though she says she has demands con-stantly that move her to pitv.

When Robert Was a Boy.John W. Burdetto, for many years

editorial writer and business managerof the Burlington Hawkeye, is ayounger brother of the famous humorist He says: "Bob always bubbledover with fun, and his stock ot storieswas exhaustless, even when a child.He could make us a good fairy tale oradventure at a moments notice, andhis younger brothers wei-- alwaysafter him for 'just one more story,Bob,' whenever we got him alone. Atbed-tim- e we were especially annoyingto him. After we' were all cuddled up

for we slept three In a bed Bobwould tell us a tcore of stories, and weconstantly begged for one more untilhe would become weary. I guess thatsome of Bob's best stories wore told tous In those days. I would not like tosay a thousand times (or fear ot exaggeration, and if I said less than athousand times it might not be up totho number of occasions whenBob was obliged to kickus both out of bad and roll himself up4n the blankets and go to sleep in spiteot us, for we never tired ot hearinghim, no mutter how sleepy and tiredhe might become. Yes, if

part of the fanoies, witticismsand inventions which Bob entertainedhis little brothers with could be print-ed, the world would call him n geniusof the most marvelous kind; for thethousand tales of the Arabian Nightswere never more interesting thanthose winter nights' tales of my goodbrother Bob. There was never a bet-ter brother."

Clean Milk.When we look upon the boautiful

whiteness of milk we are led to believeit is absolutely clean. It seems sonatural to believe that anything sowhite and pure-looki- must be clean.When we remember, however, thatwater that seems perfectly clear andsparkling to the naked eye may con-tain the worst impurities, we are pre-pared to hear and understand that ap-parently .clean white milk may be im-pure. We recently had exhibited tous the residuum cleaned out of ap-parently pure milk by un ingenioussystem of centrifugal cleansing em-ployed by one of our condensed milkcompanies. This residuum consists olblood, putrescent matter, hair, duetand other impurities taken from thebottom of one of these centrifugalcleansers. The question suggests itself,may not the continued use of milk con-taining such impurities be the sourceot typhoid and other fevers just aemuch as Impure water? And if this isso, why should not the same prophy-lactic care be exercised In cleansingmilk as in distilling water? Here is afresh apportunity for microscopicaland bacteriological investigation, tcwhich we shall again refer, Ameri-can Anatyco.

Color of the Hair and Eyes.M. Toplnard has been making a

statistical inquiry into the colors of theeyes and hair in France, and from his180,000 observations he deduces manyinteresting results, one of the most cu-rious being that where tbe race isformed from a mixture of blondes andbrunette! the hereditary blood-colorin- g

comes out in the eyes, and thebrunette element reappears in thehair. To thlt tendency probably is tobe attributed the rarity of a combina-tion ot light hair with dark eyes. Sev-eral observers have asserted that theAmerican people, who are pre-e-nently a mixed race, are becoming adark-haire- d and blue-eye- d nation, andIt this be true, tuch a developmentmust be owing to the working o)the new law formulated by M. Topl-nard.

the Yukon Month there once lived a lit-tle boy with bis annt They were allaloae. not even-havin- any people liv--

awue mem in any airecuon to tara tbey could travel in a day. One sum-mer day the boy took his skin canoe, ortyak, and told his aunt that he was go-ing away to the Great River (Yukon) to

uen people were living.Then away he paddled and came in

time to the Great River, up which besteered his course until be came at lastto a large village. . .

As tbe boy drew his kyak upon theshore tbe people ran down to bim aadsmashed his canoe to pieces and thentore bis clothing into rags and beat himalmost to death. And here the poorboy, having no kyak, was compelled tostay all through the summer, Ihe objectof the spiteful blows and harsh treat-ment of the entire village.

As tbe autumn moon tilled, one of themen in the village felt pity for thefriendless one and made him a littlekyak and told him to go and Und his peo-ple again.

Then the boy paddled away again, andafter a long time returned to his aunt'splace.

When he reached home he was sur-prised to find that many people badcome there during his absence and a vil-lage now stood about his old borne.

Then he drew his kyak upon the rivetbank and went straight to his aunt'shouse and entered.

The old woman was inside, and whenthe poor boy went in, all ragged andso starved and beaten that he lookedlike a skeleton, she was very muchfrightened.

When the old aunt's fright passedaway she was able to recognize him,and with cries of pity for his sufferingand of anger at his cruel enemies, sheheard his story. When he had finished,the old woman made him bring her apiece of driftwood, and from it theycarved a small wooden image of an an-imal with long teeth, and long, sharpclaws; and they colored it on the sides,with some white on its neck. Then theytook the image to the edge ofthe water in the little river andthe old woman said her magiowords to the imnge and told it togo to the place where the bad ones livedwho had treated her boy so evilly, andto tear and destroy all the people hecould And. The image lay quite still,not etirring. At this the old womantook it out of the water and let her tearsdrop on its back, while she told it:"Now, go! Kill and tear the bad oneswho beat my boy," and put it into thewater again. Just when she finished,the imuge moved slowly across theriver ami crept up the other bank. Bythe time it reached the top ot the bunkit had grown to a big animal, and turn-ed and looked back at the old woman,who cried out to it: "Qo, tear anadestroy."

The animal went away to the badvillage, where it found a man gettingwater from the river, and quickly torehim in pieces. After this, foi a longtime, the savage one kept about thisplace until half of the people had beentorn by him and all of the others beganto desert it. The savage one then swamacross the Great River and wandered faracross the earth plain, even beyond thebroad river, always raging to destroyeverything in which it found life.

Here it turned back, and one daycame upon the river bank where it hadstarted. He looked, and seeing thepeople, became at once filled with rageand began to tear up the earth with hissharp claws, and then swam the littleriver. The villagers ran away cryingwith fear: "There is the old woman'tdog, and now we will all be eaten.Make the old woman go and stop herdog."

The old woman heard the cries andwent Out, and as soon as she saw theanimal she went to meet it The savageone was passing by without trying totouch her, but she caught it by the longfur and said: "Do not hurt these peoplefor they have been good to me and havegiven me food when I have beenHungry." At this the savage one be-came quite gentle and she led it intoher house.

When thsv were inside she told theanimal that he had served her well unddone all of her bidding, but that fromthis time forth he must not hurt peopleunless they first tried to injure or abusehim in anv wav. She then led it outsideand sent him away, and since then therenave always been bears.

The Highest Volcano.The highest active volcano in the

world is Popocatapetl, thirty-fiv- e milessouth of Pueblo, Old Mexico. It is 17,-7-

feet high, the crater is three milesin circumference and l.uuu leet deep.When Cortez conquered Mexico Popocatapetl was in a state of active eruption, the smoke being visiuie lor auumiles in every direction.

One of Cortez's men, Francisco Mon-tan- o,was the first man to ascend to the

summit Up to 1875 but two whitewomen, Mrs. John W. Foster and Mrs,Arthur Terry, had ever gazed into theawful crater. Since that time severallady tourists have made the ascentThe figures of General Casper Ochor,the owner of the great smoking moun-tain, show it to be 19,523 feet high; 4,

the figures given above, are thoseused by most geographers.

The Biggest Town.London, with an area somewhat in

definite, it the lamest city in the world.Her postal districts extend over a scopeof 144 square miles; that of the policeover 690 square miles. The populationin 1881 was something over 4,000,000.It stands on four counties, covering themost of each. It tins 1.500.000 foreigners from every quarter of the globe, andit is said to have more uatnoiics tnanRome herself and more Jews than allPalestine. Within the limits of thecity there is a birth every live minutesand a death every eight minutes, dayand night Each year adds 45,000 to thepopulation, mere are 7,uvu nines orstreets and 1,200 miles ot street railwaywithin the city limits. Each year anaverage of 28 miles of new streets areopened.

A Baa BetiaalaaOU Mother Fez one evening leaked

From out her den of rocks."Come here, my pretty Bushy TaO,"

She called her little Fez."You're getting larger every day,

You're arowina-stron- I feelTie time that you should leave your flay

am looms Begin so

you're okttino labgh vcar pat .'"The farmer's eye is quick and keen,

The chicken-roos- ts are high;The Rabbit, he is fleet of foot;

The Partridge, she Is sly.If you would live upon your wits,

You must be very sly ;You'll have to watch before yon pounce

You muit be very sly."

"I've really learned to stial.""Yes, mother," said young Bushy Tall,

"I know just how you feel.Itnt I've begun to prowl about;

I've really learned to steal.The Rabbit runs, the Partridge flies,

The Chicken-roost- s are high,But I shall wait a chance to pounce;

I shall be very sly.I mean to live upon my wits;

I shall be very shy.":i

So off they bolb together wentAnd left their den of rocks;

And which one of tbe two was worse,The big or little Fox?

Jiminy Joyce's Philanthropy,Little Jimmie Joyce has shown a

great interest in the Fresh-Ai- r fundever since it began to be talked aboutthis season. As it happened, last weeksome of his friends were sent away bymeans of the fund, and their brilliantaccounts of country life set Jimmie'syoung mind to work. The lad does agood deal of thinking- anyway, for oneso young, and this time his active mindhit upon something which seemed tojiiiti very practical. Accordingly,Wednesday morning, when he went tothe Daily News boys' room in the rearof the Daily News building, he marchedup to Philip O'Connor, the veteran pa--

and hem a ten minutesconversation with him.

"It strikes me that we fellers mighttake up a kinder collection," he said,"and we might send some one to thecountry, too." Phil fell in with theidea, ana, when all the boys came in,before giving them their papers, hemade the following, announcement:"Boys, some of the fellows wants tostart a subscription among you for the

of sending some of the poor toSurpose Now, what do you thinkI 1W"

. "That's the stuff," "Let 'er go," anda score of like exclamations were givenby the boys in answer.

So it was that the Daily News boys'fund was started. Jimmie Joyce's nameheaded the list with 10 cents after it,and by night many names were addedand $5.55 was raised, Thursday $1.75was added to the list, and yesterday 87cents was handed in by "Shorty," whohad spent the previous afternoon on thenorth side collecting it from the boys.The fund had now grown to $8.17,enough money to send four "kids" tothe country for a two weeks' vacation.

It now became necessary to appoint acommittee to see that the money wasdisposed of properly and that the rightpersons were benefited by it Accordingly, a meeting was held and all theboys attended, regardless of the papersiney mignt nave torn. The alley,through which the little fellows cometo get their papers was thronged, TomBlack acted as a chairman and "Reddie"introduced a motion that a committeeof four be appointed to attend to theproper disposal oi tne money, The mo-tion was carried and Frank Eohlhoff.better known as "Yorkie," James Cot-ton, Frank Bremer, and Frank Shultzwere appointed.. Now comes

. .a question not easilyj iitrl-- i. ,mueciueu; w no snau we senar"I think 'bout as good as we could

do would be to send four poor boys,"suggested "Bricktop" John.

"No; better send poor girls," saidanother.

"What's the matter with haff andbafT?" asked Bob Jackson.

An hour was spent discussing thisquestion, nut no agreement could bereached, so the boys referred it to thecommittee they had selected,

"Yorkie" then proposed that thepersons sent to the country by them becalled the Daily News boysr boys," or"girls," as the case might be, or both,for that matter, and the motion wasunanimously carried.

The committee lost no time in dis-posing of the duties intrusted to him,and met immediately after the othermeeting had adjourned:

"Yorkie" acted as spokesman, and re-garding the question as to who was tobe sent to the country said: "Fellers, Itink we'd belter take the gals out,'cause yer know they don't nohow gitto see much any way. Yer know wekin take the car and go off fer a daylist when we wants, but they can't doit It's my opini'n we'd better tend 'emoff. What der yer think 'bout itT"

"Yorkie't" eloquence was not lostupon the other three, and they finallydecided that "the Daily Newt boys'girls" should go for the proposedvacation.

The boys then visited the manage-ment of the Daily Newt Fresh-A- irFund, and requested four deserving

Brains in Demand."1 hear a good many young fel-

lows," said an old New York mer-chant, recently, "growling nowadaysthat the chances to make a fortune inthis city are all gone, that is, for menwhose only capital is their brains.They look around at the great businesshouses already established' and con-sider the tierce oompotition in everybrunch of trade, and their hearts failthem. The truth is that there neverwere such chances to make money asnow for young men of real ability inthis city. It is a hard place, of course,for men of mere average talent to getalong In, but brains are needed hereas never before. Merchants who havebuilt up great trades and want to 'letup' a little in their labors, must havesmart men to whom they oan safelyentrust details.

"The complaint that the 'bosses' re-latives are put over the heads ot themore deserving clerks is not true.That scheme is playing out and willnot work. No wise man will risk hisbusiness in the hands of an incompetent son or nephew if he can get a better and more faithful employe to attend to it It would pay him better topension the relative. These men getsalaries that were unheard of in myday, and although the prices of landhave risen greatly since then, the op-portunities for a young fellow to secure a home of his own, were neverbetter that they are in New York today.

A Man of Expedients.Of all the dispositions with, which

moral man may be born, there is noother that on the whole it so likely toassist him to make his way throughlife satisfactorily as that ot being borna man of expedients. Whatever giftof wealth one may chance to inherithe is sure sooner or later to come, togrief, unless he inherits also the artof managing them. It is by no meantenough to get a fortune; it It neces-sary to use one's wits to preserve ItBut fortune is, after all, only on ofthe Innumerable elements of whichlife it compounded, and as it become!every year necessary to have a largefortune to hold one's own among thewealthy of the land, to does It beoomeevery year of less Importance whetherone does have a fortune, tlnoe there) Itconstantly a larger proportion ot peo-ple who do, not have the enormousamount which goet to make up thomodern fortune, and the majority willassert itself, even to the extent ofbreaking away from the domination ofwealth.

In every department of life. In thegreatest affairs with whloh ha la sail-ed upon to have to do at well at in themost mlmute, there It room for thedisplay ot thlt faculty ot being pre-pared for the emergency. To be aman ot expedient it it ne penary tohave much mental dexterity, muohpower ol adaptability, and wldo fer-tility of resouroe.
