Saturday night about 11 o'clock Eb Duncan, Jesso Mani3 and another young man were going home. While in front of David Walsh's house ou North Street, yonug Manis pulled out a calibre revolver and commenced shooting in the a: v. It seems that Duncau wag bohiud Mania, and that Manis was holding the revolver near his rigut shoulder. One of the balls struck Duncan in the groin, and made a v«ry painful but not dangerous wound.
From an investigation it shows that the shooting was purely accidental, as both young men were the best of friends* aud always have been. Young Manis was immediately arrested by Marshall Scott and Officer Walsh and put in jail. Manis' preliminary trial will come off tomorrow.

WHAT A LETTER DID.
How a Southern Congressman Innocently Made a Lifelong Enemy.
"Speaking of stenographers," said a gentleman well known in Washington, who for a number of years represented a Louisiana district in congress, "I once had a secretary, an unusually careful and competent fellow, too, whose slight slip in a typewritten letter to a constituent of mine cost me that gentleman's friendship, a friendship valued much more highly than I can express. "This is the way it came about: At a time when I was well nigh submerged with committee duties I received a letter from the head of one of the most influential and widely respected families of the state. His residence had just burned down, he wrote me, the loss I coming at a moment when it affected his financial matters to no inconsiderable extent. Could he not presume upon our many years of friendship to the extent of asking a loan of $250, until the insurance companies should settle his claim? I was deeply moved to learn of his misfortune, and immediately dictated, along with a number of other letters, the following lines to liim 'My Dear Sir—I am greatly pained to hear of the calamity which has come upon you. I regret I have not $250 in available funds at present will send check in a day or two.' "Promptly enough the check went, but with equal promptness it was returned to me, with no word of explanation. I own I was surprised, but concluded he must have received his insurance money, and the circumstance was gradually forgotten. But it was very forcibly recalled to my mind when next I paid a visit to my home, for he did not call upon me, as he had always been wont to do. On the contrary, he shunned a meeting with me. "Imagine my dismay upon finding that the letter I had sent him, in the most kindly spirit possible, contained these v.'ords: 'I regret I have got $250 in available funds will send check in a day or two.' In vain I explained, apologized, implored. To his dying day he never forgave what he termed my studied and unwarranted affront. "That is what the touch of a finger upon a v/rong key did for me, and for years I have never mailed a letter, long or short, without first subjecting it to the most rigid scrutiny. I tell yon, sir, it pays to be watchful in this respect.'' —Washington Star.
The rast Straw.
Henry Van Meter, who died in Bangor about 25 years ago at the advanced age of 110, was a genuine old Virginia darky who drifted down east in some mysterious way in the early part of this ccntury. lie imagined himself charged with inspiration from various spirits and was in reality unbalanced in his mind foi the greater part of tho time, on account of tho superstitious beliefs which possessed him.
At one time he was summoned to court as witness in a certain case, and the counsel on each side badgered him with questions until his wits became so entangled that his answers grew quite wild and preposterous. Noticing the distress and confusion of the poor old witness, the judge, who was a most kind hearted man, hushed the lawyers and put a simple question to the bewildered darky, with the intention of bringing him back to the starting point.
This third assault, for so Van Meter regarded the kindly judge's interposition, proved the last straw to the old darky. "Now, looka-heah, yo' ole gray haired gemman up on de bench dar," he broke out, shaking a trembling forefinger at the judge, "don' yo' interfere wid dis yer bus'ness at all. Dis chile's got jess as much as he can do to take care ob dese two fellers down heah, an dat's de trufl"—Youth's Companion.
A Dog In a Crowd.
It is really cruel to a dog, and particularly a small one, into a crowd. No one possessing any imagination would ever do it. Can you fancy what the feelings of a little animal must be when it finds itself in a perfect forest of legs, each leg provided with a foot shod in hard leather arid liable to come down on one of its poor little paws? Its small brain must bo in a ferment of apprehension all the time, and if it could command any language it would probably be of a powerful kind.—Philadelphia Ledger.
How They Eat.
The following is the daily ration of the animals at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris: Ten pounds of flesh for each lion, tigor and bear seven pounds for the panther, 1hree pounds to six pounds for the hyena, one pound for the wild cat, and two pounds for the eagle.
There is a "rocking stone" in Sullivan county, N. Y., which is estimated to weigh 40 tons, and which is so evenly balanced that the strength of one finger is sufficient to set it in motion.

A horse, an animal said to have' once been quite common in our city streets, Y.'HS se«n in this city yesterday. He attr?^tH r^rcjh curiosity and he was followed wherever he went by immense crowds. It is almost impossible to believe that cur ancestors could have trmsted their lives to so formidable a creature. It is understood that the animal csci'ped i'rcji the Equine Food abattoir in Brighton. I An airport unprecedented event bappened in this city last evening, when
Mr. and Mrs. John Brownsmith celebrated the anniversary of their, mnrriage. The Brownsmiths were married a year ago. It is quite remarkable for a couple to live so long together in tho state of wedlock, and their celebration naturally drew to their residence a dense throng of admiring friends. ConI gratnlations were poured upon the liappy pair, with wishes that they might

continue together long enough to obI serve the second anniversary of their wedding.
The directors of the Euripides Manufacturing company Inwe been convicted of the charge of failuro to examine into the accounts of their treasurer, and have severally been sentenced to imprisonment in the state prison for a term of I five years. Their counsel argued that, inasmuch as the treasurer's accounts, as shown by expert examination, were faultless during his ten years of service I and that no suspicion had ever fallen upon him, the sentence should be ligliter, but the court very justly remarked that the oifense was the same as if the result had been sovere loss to the stockholders.
It was curious to see a pedestrian in 1 Washington street today, tho first one I that has been seen in the city for many years. He occasioned no small amount of vexation to the unicyclists, in whose way he was getting continually. There can be no objection to people walking in their own houses or in the country, where there is plenty of room, but it is clearly out of the question that the practice should be permitted in our crowded city streets.
The death of Solomon Strongmind, which occurred this morning, calls to mind the remarkable fact that daring his long residence of five years or more in this oity he has never mysteriously disappeared for even once. Undoubtedly Mr. Strongmind was somewhat eccentric in his habits generally, but in this especial matter the Ma trolling cause must have been something far more potent than mere oddity.
A man appeared on the street dressed in trousers and cutaway coat yesterday. He was promptly arrested and carried to the station house. When ho next made his appearance he had donned the petticoats and other garments appropriate to his sex.—Boston Transcript.
WHAT NORDAU HAS DONE.
Professor I.ombroso Has High Praise For the Author of "Degeneration."
In "Degeneration" he has the great merit of combating certain dominant influences, particularly that of mysticism, which, recrudescent in these latter days, thanks to certain errant geniuses, lias led astray a vast throng of talents. In this book, too, he is ever the man of our century who has most felt the pulse of his times, and he has not only put. his finger on our most open wound—on that egotism which is sterilizing our moral sense and rendering us crr.el to one another—but he also has succeeded in finding its explanation in the special tendencies of the degenerate whether it bo the higher class degenerates who invents the strangest freaks to catch the public eye—as weddings in a balloon or Cardinal Lavigerie's crusades—or the imitative degenerates who deem themselves original in simply copying.
Finally he has had the supreme merit of applying psychiatric research to litei'ary criticism. He has carried this reform to its utmost applicability, seeking, with that audacity, intrepid even to insolence, which he exhibited in his

ventional Lies," to demolish the reputations most firmly established. And thus he has been able to overthrow the work of the French and German Symbolists and Decadents, who proclaim science untrue because in 100 years of toil she has not given them the key to all the mysteries. These pages of his are among the most splendid written in this century, such as could be wrested from an artist thinker by the sight of four idlers, who insult the legiou of tireless workers busy in searching and researching nature, even into her inmost recesses. And very just is his diagnosis of them—that they have for their characteristics a nebulosity of mental representation, a confused and motley ideation, too much eroticism, an abnormal demotional fabric and an exaggerated egotism which causes them to observe things only in relation to their own selves.—"Nordau's 'Degeneration,' Its Value and Its Errors," by Cesara Lombroso, in Century.
Sharpening a Pencil.
From childhood up man, naturally destructive, with an inherent desire to smash things, has been taught to take care^)f everything that is nice, tidy and ornamental. If you want to know how well the lesson has been learned, watch men sharpen pencils. Did you ever see one begin at the end that has the pretty gilt letters on it? The rudest and most careless man will turn tho pencil oud for end to whittle on the plain part.— New York Press.
