TIM VoU to Admit Its "Ctai" PuplL Tint The "CollBfs1' was a rickety old Tooni la the neighborhood of the" Kite Points, and Shanghai Bill wa the onolejfged preWent of iL The mate to tins lag had been left on the battlefield of Fait; Oaks, and no soldier was over mora proud of his stump than this one. As he forcibly put it: "Any man that wouldn't be willing to leave the hull of his mortual carktas in a high old fight like that 'ere one, didn't deaerve the name of a man." It will bo seen from this verbatim report that Shanghai Bill's knowledge, of grammar and rhetoric wan limited; but a there was no particular demand for either of these sciences in his exceedingly original institution, it made little" difference. His pupils were all newsboys, varying in age from seven to fifteen years, ami were taught by Bill to read the heads of the sensational columns which it was their business to cry to the outside world. Arithmetic was the president's stronghold. "I'm jour huckleWry in every thing but fracshings," he had been heard to say; "but when you come to splitting two-thirds into nineteen-seventeenth nnd an eighth, and squaring the hippotomua, I should He if I said I was there." At the time of our story, Shanghai Bill had twenty pnpils. They hk1 live cents a week for their tuition, and when any of the number happened to be hard-pushed, as was not often the case, the president cheerfully chalked it down, and waited for better circumstances. It was a cold, drizzly night in OctoW when Shanghai Bill pi ami his tallow-dtp in a home-made wooden candlestick in the center of the homewde weodtn table which served for -desks fcr the class.. There was a straw bed. minus a bedstead, in one corner, wpon which the master's ungainly form reposed at night. Eight perilous stools. lo home-made, and upon which the scholars took turns In sitting, and a wU, ancient and very rusty cookingtove, completed the college furniture. The Mrst to enter was Pete the WkfeAwake, followed by Short Jnek and Ble Tim, se-ealled on account of n Jfrief-jtricken aspect which never left him In the moments of the greatest soW hilarity. Pete had just opened his month te peak, when the; rest of the students me trooping in. Meet of them were barefooted, many of thorn jackeUess fJnioat'trmiseriess, but all were In Mcellent spkita, looking forward with lh greatest pleasure to the evening's Work. "Im ain't heered the news nor f Tw,' 1 "'P0' boss?" began Pete the Wide-Awake, as soon as he could himself hoard. .

Hookey, se's wo ea fet to business hom time ia the course of the nlfht.M "Well, boss," said Hookey, with great deliberation, "it's a gal wot we give it to." "A gal!" exclaimed BUI looking around upon the little company. "Yon don't mean to tell me, hoys, that any of yon has been and gone and struck a gal, do ye? Let me tell you what the great Mr. Shakespeare says on that subject. Any feller that over gits up his muscle to give it to a woman, or a gal, which means the same thing, is fit for treason, strategy and spiles. That's what he says. Yon know what treason is, boys, fori told yon t'other night." "Short Jack punched her a little, because she wouldn't give up the papers." continued Hookey. "You see, the fust thing we k no wed. this girl was aholleriH' 'feraU. Sim and 7m' jist like an old hand. We couldn't stan' by an' let a gal take our work frsom ns, could we, boss?" away "That alters the case," said the president, thoughtfully; "but you'd no business to 'a1 punched her, Jack. That's going a little too far. Take your places now, and I'll see who knows the most about the multiplication Table. We can't waste our time talking about gals." Nothing could be more unique than that recitation. The boys gathered about that table, eight of them occupying the stools, the ret standing until Shanghai Bill should give the word to change. There was always good order in this college. Ignorant and uncouth though the teacher was. there was yet a subtle something which compelled obedience a sort of irresistible magnetism 'which held the unruly boys in an iron grip. So on this, as on every other occasion, every thing went on decorously. No vulgar or profane language was allowed in the college, and no tobacco, and this school had been found a means of grace and deliverance to many a benighted newsboy. Many were the moral lectures delivered by the earnest president, and not one of them ever failed to interest. So the multiplication table passed around from mouth to mouth, suffering a good deal as it went, but allowing an unruffled front when they were all through with it. When the boys' enthusiasm and good-natured rivalry had reached their height, a sudden interruption occurred which effectually banished the multiplication table for that evening. Shanghai Bill's college was situated on the fifth floor of a building once used as a brewer, but now condemned as unsafe, and con.ec,uentlyabandoned by every one but Bill, who was determined to remain till he was "druv out by the law." No such tep hail been taken, and Bill remained unmolested. The boys had been so thoroughly engrossed by their occupation that they had not heard the door open, nor had they noticed that a stranger had entered the room. Short Jack was the first one made aware of .the intruder, and this by a smart slap on his ear, which brought him to his feet, too much surprised to utter a word. The wceidunt pushed his glasses onto his forehead, rose, aud looked about him. "Tli at was the blackguard that struck me this morning, an' I've give it back to him," fraid the new-comer, in clear tones. By this time the boys had recovered from their oonsternation. and cries of 'Tut her outl put her out!" came from all sides. "Shct up, will ye?" aahl the president, in authoritative toHes, interposing liis long right arm to keep Short Jack from returning the blow. "Hold on now," he continued, "till I get at the right of this yarn. You're the gal that tried to get the boys' honest business awav from 'em, aint ve?" "I'm the gal that's trvin to do an honest business for myself," replied the stranger, folding her arms ami looking scornfnlly about her. There site stood a girl of fourteen, perhaps, tall and slight, ragged and most inefficiently dad, but scrupulously clean. Her eyes were large and. in the light of the flickering candle, black as nightHer hair was dark and very long, apparently worn Sowing for the sake of the warmth it afforded. Indeed, her hair seemed the only comfortable article of toilet. "It aint a gal's work to sell papers," said the schoolmaster, trying to bolster his tottering prejudices under the Ire of those lashing eves. "Then give me some work that hi," was the immediate response. "I aint particular about selling paper, but gals have to eat as well as boys, and gals can he cold as well as boys, too. The fat gentleman that keep the restaurant down on the Row he's the one that act me up in business said that you was a good man, and so I've come up hare te have you settle it" This was an unlooked-for crisis, and one for which the good president was unprepared. "Iduano as anybody wants to see a gal starve," put in Short Jack, with his hand to his smarting car. The young girl gave a quick gknee at the maker of the remark, and seemed about to speak; but she folded her arms again and looked straight at "What m your name?" h asked, in a tona a full octave lower than that in YaVsaJLaJan unJi jlI aukaaUtna fu

At that moment H was suite) plain that the worthy president of this worthy institution, was in considerable doubt as to which he was snoetineHaod to do laugh or cry. As it was. he compromised the matter lay a saMTaad a chuckle which astonished the boys quite as much as any thing that had happened. t "Twenty coata is twenty eeats," he replied, after a short pauoe; "it doa't make no difference who it from; but I aint never bad no gals in my school, and I dunno as the boys wsuhi like it. But what do you mil sy? Take this stool and set down, Mag, while 1 put it to a vote. There aint no harm done to talk it over, you know." It did not detract ia the least from the kindness of the act that Shanghai Bill did not rise to give the girl the stool, hut kicked it along with his foot. She took the offered seat immediately, and waited ia silence to sec what would be done next. "When I was in the amy," said Bill, very slowly, and Angering nt spectacles a good deal more than seemed strictly necessary, Mafor I got the wound that druv me to one leg, 1 was struck in the shoulder asd left for dead. They said the breath of life was clean knocked tout of me. Ia'pose 'twas, for awhile, hut 'taint so easy te kill some folks." "That's so!" came in suppressed tones from every part of the room. "Wall, the fast thing; I knew, a queer little figger sot side of me. Mind ye, ever body else had gone about their business, for I wasn't nothing but a poor private. And this little figger said, soft and tender, like as a mother might pcVk to her dying babby: 'Here, comrade, drink this.' and she lifted my bead, and put bet canteen to my mouth, aad I drank, boys, blessing the little critter with every swallow I took. "Then she looked after my wound, and when I felt a little better, she ran as fast as she could go for the ambulance, and bless your hearts, hoys, that gal never left me till I was safe in camp. "Sne was the daughter of the regi mem, ann nerer a nay mas passeu ever my head when I have said my prajers. that I haven't asked the Lord te bless her- , , , " This gal looks more like her than any gal I've ever seen since, and what do you say. boys. to-leUnig her sell her TNtners, and lettiiur her some here ' a - , i

The girl arose, and going over to the ohl soldier, said, simply: "He toed me true. You are a good maa, and I'm much obliged to you. I'll come to school to-morrow night.1' Then, halting a second as she passed Short Jack, she said: lou ve been good tome. and I'm sorry I made your ear ache, but I owed you a debt and I had to pay it." : Without aa other word the girl opened the door and passed down the rickety old stairs, out into the wet, chilly night a child, alone, unprotected, cokl and frMmdl$$. " Say, boos, yen ln-ought the briny to my eyes a spell ago," saki Hookey Post, as the excitement el the girl's sudden disappearance had subsided. And I never came so nigh to blubbering in my life." said Short Jack. Away over in the dark of tke farthest corner stood Blue Tim, his; battered ohl hat over his eyes, and for the first time the boys forgot to laugh at him.

Tetta Mew He Tewehee Theaa Trteha. M. Loyal, who has been ring-master of the leading Paris circus for thirtytwo years, supplies interesting information concerning horse. "The horse,'' he says, "-contrary to general belief, is the most stupid animal on earth. He has onlycne faculty memory. You must teach hire his exercises with the cavesson and the long whip. Having forced them into his head, you must use the short whip when he resists and give him a carrot when he obeys. Whips and carrots form the secret ef the trainer. The horse mast be from five to seven years old; before that age be ht too ..spirited. after it his muscles are not elastic enough. The first thing to do is to accustom your horse to the ring, to make him run round regularly, and then to stop at a given signal. To accomplish this, the animal is brought into the ring. The trainer holds ia his left band a tether which is passed into the cavesson, a kind of iron crescent armed with sharp points fixed on the nose of the horse; in his right hand he holds the long whip. Behind the animal aa assistant, with a stout short whip, is posted. The trainer calls on the horse to start, and, pulling his tether and smacking his long whip, forces him to gallop round. If he refuses, the assistant uses his whip also; if he is obedient be is rewarded with . a carrot. To make him stop short, the trainer cracks his long whip again, while the assistant with his short whip throws himself suddenly in front of the animal and the result is obtained.' M. Royal tells us that "the horse has great objection to kneeling or lying down at any moment. This feat is taugh by means of iron bracelets placed on his ankles ami Attached to a tether held by the trainer, whe, by sudden Jerks or pulls as he is moving makes him fall or kneel. The animal remembers the leesonj, and by dint of whip and carrot, ultimately performs them at the mere command ef the tratiter. The horse is taught to dance to mueie In the same way with the foot bracelet?." As regards the learned horse, who boxes and takes articles out ef them, here hi how the animal is trained to do it: "I first get a carrot," says M. Loyal. "I place it in a hex. I then lend the horse to the box. He smells the carrot, lifts up the lid of the box with his nose and takes out the vegetable, which he k allowed to cat. The next day before letting the herae free, I show him a handkerchief full of bran. He takes and tries to eat it I then let him loose. He runs te the hoc, but bitter deception H ht empty. The day after I resume the exereiee, but this time the horse finds the handkerchief with the bran ia the box. He takes it out, and I reward him wKh a carrot. I decrease the amount of bran m the handkerchief every day, until in the end I put merely the handkerchief in the sex. The horse brings it to me and gets hie carrot. I then reduce the siae ef the carrot every day, until at last I give him nothing. The horse continues to perform with the handkerchief, in the hope of getting the carret." ftf-jh flLjbeAenam nmaC snYenAMe'eeWekmsB Ivwl wmrW?H nry sefTfarVVVWT om L-- tta vmdl m amoUf uuntdV tat hsUl lukaaal VtlVTVth sa sammm. rWee JIVIUbV smj nmm Hfmmmji and drove them Mrottf lust.
