Mr. Cassatt's Cigar Holder.

To President A. J. Cassatt alone, the clerks in the Philadelphia offices of the Pennsylvania railroad say, the recent 10 per cent increase in

“DO YOU LIKE THIS HOLDER?”

practically all employees’ salaries is due. Hr. Cassatt has the name of being extremely kind to those who come in contact with him. There was an episode recently that showed his kindness in an odd way. Entering his office suddenly one morning; Mr. Cassatt caught a clerk smoking a cigar from an amber and gold holder that belonged to the president himself. The clerk retired guiltily, but nothing was said to him till late that afternoon. Then he was called before his chief. “By the way, Mr. Blank,” said Mr. Cassatt, extending the cigar holder, “do you like this holder r* “Yes; I think it is very fine,” the clerk stammered. “Then suppose you keep it,” said the other. “It isn’t large enough for us both.” And in this strange manner the clerk found himself in possession of a gold and amber trinket worth at least $25.

CONDENSED STORIES.

An Anecdote of Old Lord Salisbury and Dr. Acland. When he was a young man, Lord Salisbury was extremely delicate. As Lord Robert Cecil he was overgrown, languid and anaemic, and hit lungs showed some signs of weakness. As soon as he had taken his degree and been elected to a fellowship at All Souls’ his friend and brother fellow Dr. Acland recommended him to take a long voyage and to stay abroad, if possible, for two years. On this, old Lord Salisbury came down in, hot baste to Oxford and protested vehemently against Acland’6 advice. “I wish my son to enter parliament immediately, so you must be good enough to recall your advice and tell him that he can face a political life with perfect safety.” Dr. Acland was very fond of telling this story, and those who remember him will conceive the inexpressible majesty with which he used to narrate his reply. “I 6aid: *My dear lord, there are 6,000 practicing physicians in England, and you will find no difficulty in procuring one who will give Lord Robert the advice which you desire. But unfortunately' I am the one man who cannot give it, inasmuch as I have already advised in the diametrically opposite sense.’ ” Of eourse Acland) was obeyed. Lord Robert went to California, came back with sound lungs and as Lord Cranborne and Lord Salisbury has done a life’s work of colossal labor with no untoward results to his health.—Manchester Guardian. Shot tho Tomato**. The family had stewed tomatoes for dinner, and one of the diners, found something round and hard in a spoonful of the vegetable. It turned out to be a drop of solder 1 that had fallen in when the can was being sealed. It was shown to the baby, with the explanation that it was a pretty little ballet. Then the baby, who happens to be a boy of about four years and very much interested in guns, looked up ana asked; “Do they shoot tomatoes to kill ’em ?”—Columbus Dispatch. TvtlT* gUllm OrttM. Indianapolis, July 16. Twelve strikes have been ordered by the national executive committee of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiner*.

He Can’t See the Classes.

Mr. Rhino—Glasses may be all right for some people, but they don’t seem to do me a bit of good. —E. Warde Blaisdell in St. Nicholas. How Does He Do It? A farmer moving has a fox, a goose and a basket of corn. He comes to a river, and the boat will only carry the fanner and one of his charges. Now, if he leaves the fox and the goose alone the fox will eat the goose, and if he leaves the goose and the corn alone the goose will eat the corn. How can he safely take them all over the river ? A Water Lamp. A little lamp that is perfectly safe may be made by filling a glass about three-fourths full of water and sticking an inch wire nail into a piece of candle about one inch and

a half long, placing the candle nail end first into the water and lighting it. The candle will float about oneeighth of an inch above “sea level” and will burn to the end of the wick, when the water will put it out.

Roastin’ ears made their appearance in the Rensselaer market Thursday. Special reduction sale on all kinds of clothing at Murray’s during July and August a number of farmers have begun cutting oats.

Thompson’s new residence on South Cullen street. It will cost about $3,500. )C While many fields are late, corn generally throughout this county is looking Well, and with a late fall a large crop will be harvested. Advertised Letters: Mrs. Elizabeth Bond, Mary Hurley, Sallie Keefer, Miss Josie Phebus, Ellen Kelley, Cassie Harris, Lulu Burns, Mr. John Hunter, J. A. D. Hodge, J. Weisher. The Barons horse-stocks employes and a* pick-up nine from up town played ball at Riverside park Wednesday afternoon, the score standing 20 to 13 in favor of the former. ter about ten days flirtation in the nineties, the mercury took a drop last Bunday of about thirty to forty degrees, and has since been down in the sixties each night, venturing up somewhat higher during the day. brick veneer on B. Forsythe’s new house is well under way. The brick are pressed, dark red in color, and the trimmings are Bedford stone.

Moore is recovering.

Lafayette Journal: If ths good men and women of the world should stop pleading with the wicked to mend their ways; if they should say to all persons inclined to vice, “take all the rope you want,” in less than three months there wouldn’t be a place of safety for a virtuous man or woman in alt the earth. There will be no street fairs nor carnivals by the Red Men im the gas belt. Several of the tribes have been besieged with propositions from carnival managers, and this suggested that perhaps the by-laws of the order prevented participation therein. This proved to be the case, and all negotiations have been called off. In a recent issue of The Democrat the statement was made that Fred Schultz of Pulaski county, a former resident of this county, had sold his farm in Pulaski and was thinking of locating in Carroll county. It should have read Wm. Hilbert instead of Fred Schultz. Both are worthy young Germans and the writer frequently gets their identity mixed. And now it is said that Cooney Kellner did not close the deal for that saloon at Grand Crossing, IIL He went np to investigate the amount of business done, and it did not meet with his expectations or the representations, therefore the deal was declared off. Cooney is still in .Rensselaer and wiu probably remain here for s while, until he can find some writable business elsewhere, it is said. Monticello Herald: The aoeabers of the Chicago Automobile Club have returena to their homes after their tour to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky. Reports come from all along their route, both going and returning, of accidents csusm : by horses becoming frightened at their machines and from their reckless running. In many cases when an accident occured they did not stop to ascertain how bad it was but increased their speed and rapidly sped away from injury. The average automobilist seems to think that he owns the earth and that the common mortal’ has no rights that he is bound to f respect when on the road with his , machine. It is recognized that the automobile as a conveyance is here to stay but the ones who rum them must remember that others ~ have equal rights on the highways. |
