The boys st6od around in group* of three and four shivering with the cold. Great trouble was experienced in retting the target to stand, so strong was the wind. Only two rounds were fired and the sharpshooters were all ready to return to the city at the end of that time.

MANAGEMENT OF MENk

•How Great Leader* Control 'ffhoM Who Come tm Contact wttk ThemTHE ^hen Alexander Pope witote "The proper study of mankind is man," he gave expression to a far-reaching tenth, illustrated every day. To Understand man in his various moods, .to be able to control and gnide filmy is to be a king among men. Self-control L) the first fruit of study rightly ^carried on, and then follows the control of otJxers—not as an exacting master, but as guide and friend. The leaders in business, in politics, in war, the men who attain eminence itf the active affairs in which large numbers are associated, although they may not have set out to make a study of man, and may, in fact, be unconscious of their attainments, have netertbeless acquired a knowledge of ^themselves, which gives them self-con-trol, and a knowledge of the moods, impulses and weaknesses or others that 'enables them to take control as leaders.

Such power is not Necessarily associated with a high degree of culture in other directions, nor, on the other hand,, does the possession of„general intelligence necessarily include this* jibwer. The Contrary very frequently the case, literary culture arising from a lose study of books, depriving one of that intimate association which is essential to a knowledge of their dispositions, emotions and pasiions. Even the books that "hold the mirror up to nature** present but a partial and imperfect view of man. The true studentmustgo to nature herself for nstruction. It is this

servation or experience when to humor, when to command, and how to play upon the hopes, ambitions, cupidity or fears of others so as to get them to do his bidding, has mastered the greatest of all instruments, besides which the playing

upon a pipe is indeed simple. There are

men 0f

this kind who, having special

aptitude for commahd, soon learn, unconsciously, it may be, how to lead, guide or drive others. They come to the front in war, in politics and in busiI ness life, and succeed oftentimes in spite of defects in their scholastic training,

while their better educated rivals, lacking knowledge of men, fail altogether, or, if they rise above tho ranks, gain only subordinate places. Until within recent years there have bedn scarcely any attempts to make man a s-nool study nor is it to be expected that the study as now carried on will take the place of experience in raising up managers of men. Yet it is worth while for thoso who find themselves deficient in this respect to formally begin the study in their own person as in that of others. Self-study is always useful* for it de* velopfl unexpected weaknesews that may be corrected if there is a disposition to

A study of the electric phenomena produced* by solar radiation was presented at a meeting of the French Academy recently by M. Albert Nodon. Numerous observations made at the laboratories of the Sorbonne and the College de France show that on meeting an insulated metalic or carbon conductor the solar rays communicate to it a post tire electric charge that the ampitude of this charge increases with the intensity of the rays and decieases with the hygrometric state of the air, the

sometimes gives rise to wonderment at the success of this man or the failure of that by those who fail to consider the great value of a study of man to those who would be guides or leaders, or who are called upon to manage large bodies of men. lie who learns by study, ob-

S

tions as to the weaknesses of others, through which they may be controledor managed. When Hamlet, having vainly importuned Guildenstein to play upon tho pipe, throws it upon the floor, ho exclaims: "Why, look you now. how unworthy a thing you make of mo. You would play upon me you would seem to know my stops you would pluck out tho heart of my mystery} you would sound mo from mj lowest note, to the top of my compass, and there is much music, excelenl voice in this little organ, yet can not you nfake it." In that passage a strong figure of speech is presented, illustrating what may be done by those who hav« made a pro^r study of mankind. Thej can play upon humanity as skillfully at the musician plays upon the pipe. Guildenstein lacked knowledge more than Hamlet lacked advancement, hut there were doubtless others even in that day who could have sounded Ilamlet from his lowest note to the top of his compass, anil have guided aftd controled him. At all events, the ruder instruments represented by common men may be played upon, and it is those who have made the study recommended by Pope who do play upon them- and become leaders among men. It is a study that all can undertake the subjects are innumerable, and the guide-book to them all is ever present in the student's own person.—Baltimore Sun. V^js

Gompers, president of the American Federation of labor, was in the city today attending to the dedication of the Armstrong monument. In speaking of the movement among some labor organizations to secure the adoption of a law restricting immigration /or the purpose of aiding the eight-hour movement said: "As anxious as I am to see the eighthour movement universally adopted, 1 am personally against the restriction of immigration." If a man comes to the country of his own volition to seek a livelihood, and with honest motives, let him come, he is an acquisition to this country. If. however, at the forthcoming Boston convention this plan is endorsed, I am thereafter Bik'iit on this subject."

AMUSEMENTS.

The Tin Soldier.

There was quite a large audience iu the Opera House Wednesday evening, the Tin Soldier beiug the attraction. Mr. Paul Dresser as Vila* Canby, the number, received an enthusiastic reception from his friends in the audience. His Plumber was a fair impersonation, although Mr. Dresser derives much of his comedy from, his physique—he weighs 300 "pounds. Of course, a man of his build would be funny under any circumstances, and like Falstafi", he is not only wjttv himself but the cause of wit in other men. Mr. Louis Wesley's Rats was as funny a6 the part could be made. His breakneck dancing was especially good. Miss fannie Bloodgood as Patsy was pleasing, her pretty face and figure, and excellent dancing winning much well-merited applause. Miss St. George Husaey, as Violet, was excellent. Her brogue is inimitable and her presentation ot the queen of tho kitchen xvas life-like and natural.

Yesterday afternoon and ex'ening the Fisher Comedy Company presented "A Cold Day, or the Laplanders," a very amusing extravaganza. There is no plot to the piece, it being simply an expanse for the introduction of 6omo very clever people in laughable sketches and pleasing songs and dances. The'frequent applause and continuous laughter evidenced the merit of th© performers and

Tomorrow evening fttward llfirnftgnn will present his famous play, Old Lavender, in which he has made a tremendous hit. His characterization of Old Lavender is inimitable in its comedy, touching in its pathos. A delineation true to life, quiet, and restrained, but wonderfullv effective. The Opera House should be crowded to-morrow evening.

Wreck on the E. A I.

There xvas a wreck on the E. A I. about six miles southeast of this city this morning. A trestle gave way and lot seven cars of a freight train down, smashiug some of them to splinters and piling them on top of each other in a heap. Nobody was hurt. The break down blocked the track and the trains over the road ran to Brazil over the Vandalia aud thence to Saline City over the Brazil branch. The track was blockaded all day. This is one of the resultpof too much economy. Had that been a passenger train instead of a freight a serious loss of life would have resulted.

Taklc Injured.

This man pushed things a little too far with a man in Pete Staff's saloon yestorandfand as a result narrowly escaped being killed. He called his companion about all the dirty names to be found in the tough's vocabulary, and a few moments afterward, meeting him at the corner of Ninth and Main, Yakle began on his man again. The latter "bossed" out a knife and drox-e it into Yakls just below the shoulder. The blade j»enetrated to a depch of about an inch and one half. Yakle took to his heels and ran east on Main down Canal street.

FREDERICKSEN THE FRAUD.

A Poor Man, Backed by Others, Who are Now Victims. Chicago.

November 29.--Speaking of

the Fredericksen laud swindle, M. MeMurtrie, of the Western Laud Company, said to a reporter: "Fredericksen went iu to the business a poor man. All thy money he made xvent to others. Thoso who got the profits and never lost a cent through him are now poking as victims. They were behind Fredorieksoi furnished the capital, knew all about the business and reaped the benefits. Fredericksen did an immense business. Iu one year he sold between t)Op(H)Ound 100,000 acres al$U per acre that he had bought for $5. At the end of mv first month's connection with Fredericksen 1 told him I did not like his business methods and would stay

longer but I had

got John Johnston, of Milwaukee, a nephew of Alexander Mitchell, involved to large amount and had to Btay two years to get him out, which 1 did. 1 insisted that where Fredericksen sold any of tho lands to which Johnston held the original title it should only bo us attorney for Johnston. Hence those who bought'the Johnston lands from Frcd611 argon nujcricawrn 1 —1— interest, while others charged 25 per cent, bonus atl| «u, interest in the profits bwsides."

True as Gospel.

Woman's everlasting bofrilled, bodisened and bedraggled style of dress is today doing more harm to children uuborn, born and dying, than all other causes that compel public attention. With ligatured lungs and liver as our post iuheriUncc and present slavery, tbe wonder is that such small heads cau carry all wo know! Catch Edison and constrict him inside a wasp-waistcoat, and bo sure you'll get

more inventions, bind a

Niggardly waists and niggardly brain* go tojfuthor. Thoi'ujancip&uon of one will always keep pace with tbe other a ligature arouud tue vital organs at the smallest diameter of tho womanly figure means an impoverished blood supply in the brain, and may explain why women scream when they see a mouse, and why thov are so afraid of a term which should be their glory as it is that of their brothers, viz.: Strong-minded.— Frances E.
