Philadelphia Record. "Type-writer'n stnb finger'' is tho name of the newest aldction on the books of the doctors, and it threatens to become one of the formidable evils of modern civilization. The deformity has gradually been introducing itself among its unconscious victims, until now suddenly a host of type-writers, fair and otherwise, have awakened to tho startling discovery that their constant playing upon the little piano-like machines has utterly destroyed the shapeliness of their bands and transformed their lingers into thumbs. The first to realize this terrible result were the pretty young type-writers of the fairer sex, who beheld with horror the loss of their long, tnperiutr fingers, upon whose charm they had so prided themselves. Instead of their sweetly molded fingers tapering gracefully to the tips and aristocratically curling, what was their consternation and chragin to be struck with the fact that long hammering upon the little round keys had effectually flattened out their fingers-tips and given each particular digit, abovo the top joint, a grotesquely and vulgarly stubby appearance. The doctors were immediately besieged by despairing bevies of bewitching type-writers, who hid their distorted and llattened fingers in the depths of their mils and gloves. "Just to think," exclaimed one of the nearly weeping young women to her physician, "I had such a long, slender baud, and was the envy of the nasty Miss Q. whenever visitors in the oQlce gazed on admiringly at my fingers dancing over tho keys. Even my employer used to smile at my nimble, tapeTing fingers. And now" She had to bite ber lips to keep the tears back. Her tale of woe was repeated sadly by many young women to their doetors and to their bosom friends. Tbe male ty De-writers have alio become as a'arined as their sister professionals. Probably five hundred typewriters in Philadelphia have become thus unhappily alilicted, and tbe rest are growing ramdly panic-stricken. The public in general must feel an interest in wondering whether the atlection is liable to spread, and with tbe use of type-writers themselves give rise to a future generation which shall be all thumbs and no fingers. Another Plot. Prick. The Czar A horrible thought strikes me! The Lord High Executioner What is that, your Majesty? The Czar-If that dentist was a Nihilist he may have filled my teeth with dynamite. Then the first time 1 bite hard I hall blow tho top. of my head oil!
THE BUBAL SCIIOOLMASTEB
How lie Forever Cowed the Bad Boys and Made Himself Respected by Them. Scholars Wild and Woolly Subdued by a Little Man with Two Bi? Reyolycrs Afterwards a Most Exemplary School. nere and there in the rural townships of Hoosierdom, where hoop-poles go as currency, is found the overgrown, ba-ad young man who delights in robbing birds' nests and cuffing boys of undersize. Several years ago in one of the rural counties not a thousand miles from Indianapolis, presumably on a hot day in the month of August, the school trustees fonnd themselves on the last road and at the last turn. They were not in search of a college professor, but they wanted a man with a grain of common sense and plenty of nerve, and they wanted one mighty bad. If such an individual could be found it would not only be his duty to teach the young idea how to shoot, but to break the backs and otherwise subdue into docility about seventeen of the most incorrigible young men any nation, no matter how warlike in its proclivities, could produce. The question had reached a point when its importance shook the whole county from stem to stern, or from Dan to Beersbeba, and the school trustees had been brought Heady for Business. face to face with the fact that they must either resign and close up the little frame sohool-house at Scragg's Corner, or get their hands on a man of such gigantio proportions that one lonesome irown would strike terror to the hearts of all tbe bad boys of the neighborhood. At that time the situation was about this: The boys of that neighborhood had developed into regular Bowery "terriers," and two or three years before had decided to take a back seat for no one. They came to the conclusion that they could run the school themselves, and had issued a verbal ultimatum that no teacher employed by the school trustees would be allowed to wield the gavel for more than one week. The first teacher to take up a temporary residence at Scragg's Corner was a mild sort of a fellow, and as soon as he detected a disposition on the part of the boys to be real untractable he began to talk to them of their future prospects and the good, kind citizens they ought omake of themselves. It was a case of th- young ruffians not being built that way. See! That mild school-teacher remained at Sera gg's Corner just four days, and when he left it was by way of the window. From that time on school-teachers came and went, and tbe great regularity with which they "went' was something extremely discouraging to the achool trustees. The boys ruled tho roost, aud, bloated with victories on many battlefields, they thirsted for more gore. The result of such a state of affairs was to make the social problem pre-eminently the most important one that shook the cobwebbed rafters of. fecragg's Corner. Tho trustees were distracted. They had offered a premium for an idea cultivator who was a "stayer," but had found no takers. It was while this condition of society was boiliug and seething in its uncertainty that the school trustees were knocked into the middle of next week. One day they received an application for the position of teacher of the school-at Scragg's Corner. The next dav the applicant called in person. He was a little fellow, but he had a resolute eye. He said ho knew all the circumstances that surrounded the school, and he was willing to accept the job. Ho would either teach tLe schooler Ho was hired on thf spot. The trustees did not a6k for referencesorwritten recommendations. They were only too willing to shift the responsibility of tho intellectual growth of the community on to other shoulders. They were anxious, however, to know how he would fare at the hands of the wild, untutored boys of the neighborhood. Monday morning the unconquered spirits of Scragg's Corner were in their seats in tho little scbool-house bright and early, ready for the fray.' - At b o'clock the door opened and tho new teacher entered. Hp was small in stature, in fact, a mere pigmy alongside of some of the eighteen-year-old' boys of the school. He surveyed the scene with a pleasant emilo on his face, and slowly, aye jauntily, sauntered up the aisle toward the rjstrum. All the time the boys had been "sizing him up" and mentally noting that he would be an easy "mark" when the time came. The new teacher wore a short cutaway coat and tbe back pockets of his trousers bulged out. When ho reached the rostrum he leaned over, still with his back toward tho school to pick np something from bis desk. The act was evidently done for a purpose. As he leaned forward the short coat grew shorter still and finally, to the horror of the bo3Ts, the butt ends of two navy revolvers came into view. Facing the school the littlo teacher reached both hands m his pockets, pulled out the ugly-looking weapons and with abang that reverberated through the room aud touched the cowardly natures of the scholars as nothing else could do, be laid them on the table. "Scholars," said he pleasantly, "I'm going to teach this school. The sooner you understand that fact the better it will be for you. If the emergencies of the case demand that I shall leave before my work is concluded there will not bo much for my successor to do. I mean bnsiness." The dropping of a pin could have been heard from any part of the room. The school, so long the terror to Hoonicr educators, had been subdued by something more eloquent than mere words, which often don't mean much. From that time on tho Ecbool at Scragg's Corner was looked upon as the banner school of the county, and the little teacher was a king among men. He is still teaching at that school-house, and counts his friends by the hundred. Read the Fapers. New York Pott. In a sermon to women npon the art of conversation, the writer advises women first of all to know something to talk about, and, as a means to this end. he advises them to read newspapers. He says: "I do not mean read the marriagenoticeH and the deaths merely. 1 do not mean read the sensational items about the latest murder or divorce or theft. You will be far better off if you do not read many of these things. Bead the editorials, read tbe doices of Congress, of the Senate, of the matters before the Legislature of your own State, and of other States; read tho items relating to the aflairs of the old world. These things, which are tho doings of the present, will enter into the history to be written in the future, and I know of no way to keep up with the current history, either of your own or other countries, than by reading the papers. But not merely are you to read the secular papers, but you are to read as well the religions newspapers. You cannot have a true knowledge of history, either current or past, without knowing the religious history of the world. Then there is the magazine literature.

The comforts of life, ac the rate they are increasing, bid fair to bury us soon, as Tarpeia was buried under the shields of her friends tbe Sabines.

standard of living subjects all except the rich." It makes each individual of us very costly to keep, and constantly tempts people to concentrate on the maintenance of fewer individuals means that would in simpler things be divided among many. "My grandfather." said a modern the other day, "left $200,000. He was considered a rich man in those days. but, dear me, he supported four or five families all his needy relations and all my grandmother's." Think of an ineome of $10,100 a year being equal to such a strain, and providing suitably for a rich man's large family in the bargain. It wouldn't go so far now, and yet most of the reasonable necessaries of life cost lees to-day than they did two generations ago. The difference is that we need so very many comforts that were not invented in our grandfather's time.
FIRE-WORKS AT "I. U.H The State College and the Fire Fiend ITare Another Set-To Doings at the Institution. Srecial to the Infilanapolls Journal. Bloomington Ind., Jan. SO. Only the wise action of the board of trustees when the new buildings were erected prevented Indiana University from having another serious fire Thursday morning. As stated in the Journal Friday morning, the engineroom and boiler-house were destroyed by fire, which is now supposed to have caught from the coal, there being two car-loads stored in the cellar. As the buildings are now located, however, a fire could only injure one at a time, and for this reason nothing serious resulted, though the boilerhouse was entirely destroyed. At two different times the university buildings have suffered heavily by fire. In the fifties the only building was burned, and in 1SS3 tbe mam building, erected ten years before, was struck by lightning and destroyed, with a valuable library and the finest museum in tbe State. The fire of Thursday has not interrupted tbe work, as the library hall has its own heating apparatus. Already ususual interest is developing in the coming State oratorical contest. It will be remembered that a year ago Indiana University was successful in both the State and interstate associations, and if possible it is the intention to maintain that record. It is understood that half a dozen or more of the best speakers of the institution will contest for the local honors, the home primary having been set for the 12th of February. The faculty has the oversight of the contests, and has issued rules under which it will be governed. The orations are not to be over 2.000 words in length, are to be ready for inspection three days before their delivery, and are to be examined by a faculty committee. As in the other colleges of the State, the "merit system" now prevails, and instead of a long and bitter fight over the delegates to the State meeting, the speaker and the next two highest in grade are the oliicial representatives of the university. Athletio sports in the university have always been a great success, except financially speaking, and in that respect there has always beon a healthy deficit to overcome. This year is no exception to the rule. At the last meeting it was voted that each member of the association pay an assessment of $1, and as there are sixty members, this will provide for SCO of the account. The balance is to be raised by a concert, which is to be given by the De Pan w Club in the near future. In the meantime the Athletio Association is getting ready for tbe coming season. Mr. Uiine has been elected the manager of the club, and there are over twenty candidates for tbe dillerent positions in the nine. The candidates havo formed themselves into a class aud are practicing those exercises that will be most beneficial for good work on the ball-field. In a short time the official nine will be announced. Dr. Coulter has just recovered from a very serious attack of the grip, which kept him from work almost two week. He was able to tv to Evansville this week to give the first lecture before the new University. Extension Club tftat has been formed in that city, and is one of the largest in the State. A number of the other members of the faculty have been disabled from work by the prevailing disease, and at one time Professor Osthaus was in a very dangerous condition. The new gentleman's gymnasium is now completed and ready for use. It is a frame structure, very plain, but will answer every purpose. The great need now, however, is apparatus witn which to exercise, and it is probable that at no distant data an entertainment will be given to raise fuuds to purchase the necessary appliances. An instructor has been secured in the person of Mr. Zink, who comes from Indianapolis, lie will take a post-graduate course and at the same time give lessons in the gymnasium. It has been decided to charge a tuition fee of 1, with the object of keeping those out who are not interested in the work, and also to accumulate a surplus to assist in equipping the enterprise. The hours for work have been fixed at from S-JO to 5 o'clock in the afternoon. The last addition to the faculty is Mr. James H. Henry, of Martinsville, aud who 19 now taking special work in the senior class. He hu been selected to assist Frof. Arthur Foley in the teaching of physics during the spring term. Mr. Henry was tbe candidate on the Republican ticket in 1800 for Superintendent of Publio Instruction, and his appointment gives general satisfaction. THE II AI MY AY ACCIDENTS OF 1891. A. Claim tbat Most of Them Were Caused by Dlnobedlence of Orders. II. O. Prcut. In North American Review. I have cited only thirty-six accidents out of several hundred (in 1S81.) The number of passenner trains involved in accidents during the year was not far from bT0or 100, but tho number of accidents was. of course, somewhat less, as there were a good many collisions involving two passenger trains each. But those thirty-six accidents are characteristic. Tho first great fact that appears is that twenty-two of them might have been prevented had emploves obeyed orders. They were not called on to exercise wit or judgment in atarmingemergencies, but simply to obey orders. Space and time are lacking to disensi the measures that operating officers take to maintain discipline and the difficulties that they encounter. It id enough to say tbat this is tho most troublesome part of their duties, and that tho unions, instead of helping, have made matters worse. We may hope that this is a passing phase of tradesunionism, and that, as the men learn more of their proper relations to the rest of tbe world, they will discover tbat it is lor their own interest to weed out the insubordinate, the inefficient and the drunken. Tho next striking fact is tbat nineteen of these accidents would probably have been saved by block signals and interlocked switches and signals. 1 would not say unqualifiedly that every one of the roads on which these accidents happened should at once equip its tracks with block s.guals and interlock all of its switches. There are reasonable limits within which they must work; but it may bo said without qualification that if is poor railroad economy to operate a road having a heavy and fast trafhc without block signals and interlocking for the protection of switches. It can be proved by the statistics of cost of accidents that a judiciously planned block system pays in money, and generally on a crowded road it actually facilitates the movement of trains.
Triumphantly. Dr. Price's Delicious Flavoring Extracts, Lemorr, Vanilla, etc., have stood the tests of prac tical use, in a million homes for more than a quarter of a century triumphantly, and now are taking precedence over all other flavoring extracts. They are justly entided to the reputation they have established. For strength, purity, and fine flavor they are unequalled and can not be excelled.
THE WIENERWURST SELLER
He Stands cn the Street Corner Lato at flight and Serves Them Up BoU Character of IBs TradeThe WashingtonStreet Vender Awaits Anxiously for the Fark to Close Women Purchasers. They are called 'wIenlC9,,, those little sausages served up at the street corner, piping hot, between slices of rye bread with a spoonful of grated horseradish as a rider. The city of Vienna, or Wien, as it is called in German, is . remotely responsible for this Wienerwurst or Vienna sausage, though the American article is said to bear the faintest possible resemblance to the oneinal, made on the banks of the beautiful blue Danube. Whether for good or ill. the "wienie" is in close touch with the night life of a great city. The Wienerwurst man stationed at the street corner, with his basket and charcoal fire, sees the motley throng pass by, all kinds of pleasure-seekers and in pursuit of every quality of vice. Perhaps the best station for the "wienie71 man is at the northeast corner of Washington and Illinois streets. He doesn't expect much trade early in the evening, though alontrabout8 o'clock a eupperless newsboy who has been stuck may, by extra exertion, pull out, and, having disposed of his stock, will blow in a nickel. "It's good to see 'em eat," said the wienie man, with his hands deep in his Dockets and his shoulders dreadfully humped; aud Ml 1 m it's only when the wienie man is actually engaged in making a sale that he is ever seen with his hands out of his pockets. As to his hump, it is as perennial as that of tbe bactrian camel. 4Tt's good to see them newsboys eat" he repeated, "and I don't mind givin' 'em a bigger wienie than I gives toother folks or sometimes as much as two wienies. The boys sometimes stands in With me aud steers a customer this way." "Hot! hot! hot!" sung out the wienie man; "hot! hot! hot!" and a shoestring gambler from tbe levee, who bore evidences of having been awfully mangled by the tiger, brought forth a nickel and waited as the squirming little sausage was laid npon a slice of bread. The merchant was about to put on the usual amount of horse-radish. "Scrape that oil!" exclaimed the gambler, hastily.' "The horseradish would howl for a drink, and that' my last nick. Yesterday a dollar-and-a-half lunch at June's to-night, five-cents' worth of dog-meat." The wienie man was indignant at this characterization of bis staple. He was reaching out his hand to take it back, but it was too late. The gambler had bitten out a semi-circle as big as the entrance to a rat-trap. Tbe symptoms of hanger were too evident to be mistaken. "I'll stake yon with another." said the wieuie man, in the kindness of his heart, "and take my chances." It is after the Park Theater disgorges that the sausage man looks for a rush of business. The young men about town cultivate the midnight sausage as a fad and the dealer giyes due encouragement to the 1771 en the Park Is Out, fashion. Now and then some sober married people will stop, and by way of a lark indulge in a sausage. The seasoning is, however, rarely to taste of tbe matron, who is orderly about her cooking and she usually expels the first bite with an "ugn!" and a resolve never to try the experiment again. "Do you Know," said the wienie man, "that them Chinese is a ketcbin' onf Tho other day one of 'em married an American girl and last night two of them stopped here with a bushel of frogs in their throat. 'Oggelly-goggelly ho-ki' says one. 1 forget just what the other said, but blame me if they didn't buy two wienies, and 1 piled tbe horseradish on high and strong. Think of them tellers eatin' wienies? I wonder what they'll do nextl" To lie Tlorii llich. and Old. Charles Dudley Warner, In Harper. We are all born young, and most of us are born poor. Youth la delightful, but we aro always getting away from it. How different it would be if we were always going towards it! Poverty is uy-oleasant, and the great struggle of lile is tcjet rid of it; but it is the common fortune tbat in proportion as wealth is obtained the capacity of enjoying it departs. It seems, therefore, that our life is wrong end first. The remedy that the Drawer suggests is that men should be born rich and old. Instead of the necessity of making a fortune, which is of less and less value as death approaches, we should have only the privilege of spending it. and it would have its natural end in tho cradle, in which we should be rocked into eternal sleep. Born old. one would, of coarse, inherit experience, so that wealth could be made to contribute to happiness, and each day, instead of lessening the natural powers and increasing infirmities, would bring new vigor and capacity of enjoyment. It would be going from winter to autumn, from autumn to summer, from summer to spring. The joy of a life without oareas to ways and means, and every morning refitted with the pulsation of increasing youth, it is almost impossible to imagine.
