Sunrise on the Mississippi—The Passenger Who was Hi.

Halcyon Times in Railway

Advertising.

The Corn Husk Croaker.

On the *C. IJ. & QJ' ^arch 10.—I never feel weary or nervous about an engagement when I can get anywhere near it on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad. In two long lecture seasons I never misled an engagement, and never readied a poir.t late, on this road. I have been laid out hours behind the time card, by the other great eatt and west lines running across Iowa, but if I am in a hurry and havn't a minute to spare I am content if I can only catch a C., B. & (^freight train. It always {,ets me there in time. When I left Burlington, Iipauscd a moment to admire the beautiful 81'NRIaK ON THE MISSISSIl'l:, a picture of startling beauty and rare grandeur, at which I gazed long and admiringly. There is no very great novelty to me in seeing the sun rise, but I don't ottcn see it get up in just the stvle it put on this morning.

The gentleman sitting behind is not feeling very well this morning. I don't care very much about that. In fact, ju»t now 1 am quite willing that he should die or get off at Galva, I don't care very much which. I am not natnarllv a harsh or unsympathetic man, but when this gentleman at intervals, leans forward and lays his head upon the back of my seat, brings his mouth to bear on my ear at short range, and emits a groam that sounds like the wail of a lost soul on the bass cleff, I arn ready for dtath. For his death, that is. I don't know what ails the gentleman, but I think from his geneial symptoms and the inflamed appearance of his complexion, that he has been exposed to

MALARIAL INFLUENCES

In the latitude of Oshkosh, with nothing to defend himself with, as Pierce says, but "his good strong breath."

Those good young men, Mr. John Frawley of the T., P. & W., and W. E. Decatur, of the C. B. Sc Q^, escort me out of Burlington as far as Galesburg. They talk to each other of the halcyon days of "posting" in the railway service. "When you came on I he west end of the T., P. di W.," said Decatur,

only been at work eighteen months, and all Iowa, Nebraska, and the nothern half of Kansas you found plastered over with cards and bills as with wall paper, and you hvaen't got them all covered up yet." "True" said he of the T.. P. & W., '•true. The first four months I was with the road, I gave you half my salary, because I had nothing to do. You had done all the work." "I have tacked three color cards," said the C., B. & Q... ambasssdor, "all over the hearse, in western towns, while the procession was moving toward the cemetery." "I have 6ome cards here, said the Friendly Hand, displaying the r.ew "connecting link" chromo, "that I never put up anywhere excipt in high schools and churches." "1" said Decatur "have jumped off the forward car of a freigh train as it howled into astatiou where it didn't stop, tacked up four big cards and a package of small bills, and jumped onto a way car as it came along." "That is pretty good,"'replied Frawley, "but the only thing I ever prided myself on was my great quadruple tack act. I would put four treks in my mouth, rush into the station, hold the big card against the wall with my good right hand, and then, blow the tacks out of my mouth in one volley, shooting one of them through each corner of the card, nailing it firmly to the wall."

These thrilling and truthful reminis cences were continued at some length, but the line must be drawn somewhere. Life is too short to put down even all the truth we hear. Nothing is long, except the time on Nebraska lands. (Address the commissioner, B. & M. land offics, Burlington

A large cigar has just passed through, en route for the smoking car, dragging after it, willingly but partially unhappy captives, a very larj» Btove-pipe hat and a rather 6inall young man. with closfly cropped hair and a marvellously thin neck.

I have often wondered why it is that the young man with the thinest neck always wears his hair shingled, and the biggest hat he can find? His hat always looks as though it had swooped down upon hinwith the intention of swallowing h»m, and was only wating until it could find the rest of him.

THE CROAKER

At Princeton a venerable granger gets on the train and sits down beside me. After a few moments he opens the conversationby informing me that the orange crop inCalifornia is a dead failure thi year.

I say Ah?" and then he telis me that wheat in Illinois and Minnesora has been winter killed.

I say "Indeed?" and look concerned?

And in a moment or two the old traveler goes on to assure me that the cold snap last week killed all the peach buds in southern Illinois and Michigan.

I sav, "Sho!" ?fjp: And he says, Yes, and he haeffxamin»etl one hundred and thirty-eigh apple •trees in various counties in Iowa and Kansas and his part of Illinois, and there wasn't enough life in the swelling buds to develop abloom, let alone a healty set. And he had a letter from a man in

Indiana, and he said it was the same way tkere. Every apple in the State winter .killed. And, he said, we are gcing to s- •,' v,- r,

have some stinging cold wether and the biggest 6now storm we had this winter, along about the 17th of this month.

Then I became conscious of a certain touch of familiarity in the old manV voice and appearance and manner. I looked at him more closely, and fully reconized him. "Ah, ha!" I said. "I remember you now. You rede with me from Onarga to Buda last October."

The old man looked at mc narrowly, and agleam of recognition shot into his lace. "Yes," he said, "1 did. You are right I did I did." "Yes,"I went on,"

uyou

are the man

who told me we were going to havea mild open winter, becaase the corn husk6, were to thin."

And then this t'ROPHET OF THE CORN HUSKS dropped his chin on his breast and looked at me in mute, heart-broken surprise. He ceased to prophesy evil, and after regarding me with a stare of stony despair for a few moments, he rose and went away. I have often wondered what malignant hater of mankind got up all these regular annual stories of prospective crop and fruit failures, and now that I have found hitn, I feel easier about them.

MORRISON.

I found Morrison just where it had been ever since they put it there a bright, stirring, go ahead little citv the center of one of the richest sections of Illinois It hasn't nearly got its growth yet, and if it grows as much as it deserves will be bigger than Chicago some of these davs. Just at present it has about twenty five hundred people to start on, which is as good a start as Chicago had. Society is refined and cultivated, business men are active, public spirited a perfect school system is training up the rising generation in just the way it ought to go, and Morrison is all its best friends could want it to be. R.J. B.

WHY DICKCATLIN BATHES NO MORE. From the Salt Lake Tribune.

It was Sabbath in the little town of Frisco, and a holy quiet settled down as though a mist from heaven with the sunlight o'er the Wasatch Mountains wrapped a'l in peace. It was Sabbath, and out from the little town came the stage— the stage that has rocked and swung and rolled along from the white billowy beach of the Atlantic, across the prairie farms of the West, up, over and bevond the towering Rockies, and bathed its al-kali-stained boot in the placid waves of the Pacific Ocean. L'ick Catlin drove that stage, and a better driver never whaled the flank of a broncho. The dav was warm as up the Beaver River rolled he. and his voice, clear as a trumpet, made the carbonate-stained hills of Lincoln ring again and again as he 6ang:

Up aud do,vu this world I've roamed, And to many camps I've boon, The winds of many lands huve combed

had

Those shaggy locks, I ween. I've (get up there, Rowdy I) been to oil Montana,

Likewise to Idaho, But to Frisco give the banner, Whtre the biitr bousnzas grow.

God's blessing on Montana, God bless old Idaho But hurrah! hurrah! for Frisco,

Where the big bonanzas grow.-

The warm sun thawed the »ld man's heart and the memory of old times stole into iiis aoul, bringing back the davs gone by, the swimming, apple-stealing, dogfighting days when he was a boy and Ben Holiaday nowhere. Rounding a point in the river the shade fell across a nook. Dick pulled up and as he had no passengers concluded to take a swim. He knew his team and they knew him. They had been together for years, and as Dick dropped his lines he said to himself: 1"^ There is nothin' like knowin'stock that's posted. Stay still, now, boys," (this to the horse«) "and the old man '11 have a good wash." Undressing and piling his clothes on the seat, Dick left the stage and plunged into the cool waters. But the stock "was posted." No sooner had

Dick plunged in than they plunged out, and when he crawled out on the bank a streak tf dust away off throagh the sage brush was all that the poor fellow could see. Now came the tug of war. The team kept the road and Dick knew that by cutting across the country and running (as he afterwards said) likes blazes he could head them off. There was no one there to witness the race. Perhaps a* times a mischievous angel would peep through his tiny fingers and laugh at that big, burlv stark-naked man outiunning the jack'rabbits in the Valley of Beaver. When he overtook the stage and got the team under control he didn't say much, but throwing the lap-robe in front of him till a wagon load of women passed by he scraped the blood and the cactus and sage and greaf-ewood from his limbs and swore that if the good Lord would lorgive him that time he would never wash any more. And to this day Dick has kept his promise.

The regiment was ordered out for target practice,and to the unspeakable disgust of the instructor the soldiers made bull'seyes on barns and centres on the Uranus. "Gimme that rifle, you cross-eyed son of an old smooth-bore Tower musket," yelled the instructor, "and watch me

He fires and misses the target, the bullet striking about two hundred vards 6hort and a quarter of a mile to the right. "That's the way you gawks do," says the instructor calmly, putting in another catridge "never make any allowance for windage—pay no attention to your elev ation—nothing."

He fires again and sends the bullet over the target. "And that'* the way some of you do— get a good aim on the mark, but when you pull the trigger, up goes your muzzle and the ball goes up among the little stars and ail around the moon, fair regent of the heavens."

Fires again and makes a bull's-eye., "And that's the way you ought to do!"

WHAT THE ALLEGED WITS OF PARIS FIND TO -AV IV THEIR NEWSPAPERS.

Reiirning beauty to her hair-dresser— Mrs. X.'s hair is really thicker and linger than mine, but I am not a bit jealous. It doesn't seem so.

Child, pointing to a bronze group representing a terriffi* combat between a lion and a crocodile—What are those things doing, pa?

Father—Talking politics, my dear.

Magistrate—You see.u to have been drinking and to have left your wits at the bottom of our tumbler.

Prisoner, blandly—Impossible, Your Honor I never leave anything at the bottom of my tumbler.

They were discussing the venerable theme cf money and happiness. Monev does everything for a man," said one old gentleman, pompously. "Yes," replied another one, "but money woney wont do as much for a man as some men will do for moi.ey."

On the 7'ch of January, 1863, Marshal Bugeaud wrote to a lriend at Perigueux some views and advice as to the local press: "The Memorial (the Government paper) is very good and 1 know that it is doing a good work—glad of that. You ought to tty and kill the Echo. It will be impossible to kill the Gazette—it will keep its subscribeis anyhow, but you ought to try and have it fined 20,000 or 30,000 francs!"

"Father, is that a goose—that big whit.e bird "No, my bov, that bird is the swan— that immaculate giraffe of the wave

The Magistrate—You were a builder and contractor Prisoner—Yes, Your Honor.

Th» Magistrate—Then what induced vou to quit that honerable profession and open a savings bank

The wife to her hnsband—Oh, how good you are how generous—how thoughtful it was of vou to buy me this lovely stuff dress But, dearest, do you not know that the unhappy silk-weavers of Lyons are starving for bread? I prefer doing a little good, humble though it may be, to gratifying myself. Take this splendid merino dress back to the store ana make them change it—a simple black silk robe will do for me. Let us remember the poor.

A manager who had juss returned from a brief tour in Italy with an improvised opera troupe was asked how the theatregoing public was in that sunny clime. "Well," said he, "the public varies according to locality. At Rome the peo pie are warm—enthusiastic why, you have hardly uttered a note before the house rises at you and tears up the benciiefl. At Turin, on the other hand, no reception is offered til! you are half through your piece and then every or® gets up and goes out without saying a word. 1 don't like 6inging tooneot these cold audiences—no artist d®es."

Speaking of a Chinamen sa"s a correspondent of the Chicago Tribune one is naturallv reminded of the laundry business. There are scores of laundries in the village of Leadville, Col., charging all the wav from a dollar and a halt to three dollars a dozen, besides the exorbitant percentage or perquisites in the way of •rysteriously lost shirts and collars. As a consequence the washing cabins are avoided as much as possible by the community at large, and* the regular article of biied"shirl"is a rarity. The blue woollen shirt, with a flowing blue silk tie is much affected by the young aristocracy, while the common clay do not aspire beyond a brown cotton or woollen shirt without ornament.

After many disheartening repulses an ambitious young man gets his first play accepted by a rash manager, who brings it out.

Ten minutes after the curtain rises there is such a frightful racket in the auditorium that the man who is mewing himself red in the face cannot hear his right-hand neighbor, who is howling like the armed rhinoceros or the Hyrcanian tiger.

A few eveniftgs afterwards the unhappv author assists at the first representation of a piece by Dumas. All goes smoothly, and there is lavish applause at each scene —each speech. "Ah, if I'd only had a cultivated and appreciative audience like that the night I brought out my play," sighs the unhappy author.

A fond father marries off his daughter. When the matrimonial contract is about to be signed his prospective son-i-t-law rubs his thumb and fingers together in expressive pantomine and says, gently but firmly: "Viellardj antez en haut!" (Anglice —Old man, ante up!

The fond father produces his daughter's marriage portion of 20,000 francs and hands them over, and the young man shakes him warmly by the hand. "I don't see what he had to shake my hand about," said the fond father later in the evening to a guest "he must be as stupid a6 a goose. I ha\e 100,000 francs Cecilia is my only child and if he had not accepted that money to-night he'd have got the money when I died as it is he'll only get 80,000 francs. He must be an ass to throw away 20,000 francs that wav.fcg

For the Hair.—The "London Hair

Color Restorer" is the best and most cleanly aiticle evar introduced to the American people, is entirely harmless and free from all impure ingredients that render many other articles obnoxious.

Mr*. Sarah A* Elliott,

Authoress of "Mrs. Elliott's Housewife,' Oxford, N". C. Writes: was among the firs that used the ''London Hair Color Restorert in this suction, and recommended it to M. A & c. A. Santos, Norfolk, Va., aa the most beautiful hatr dresser and preserver 1 had ever seen. I was advised by aa eminent physician to use it. Since doing so, it has proved so satisfactory in restoring ana beautifying my iir, aa well as strengthening my eyesight, that I have recommendedit to the druggists here in Oxford, Raleigh, and a great man of my friends, and believe I haye frota what others say, caused it to liave a wide and extended sate, and deservedly e\ as it certainly it the most cleanly and effective hair restorer new before the American people, The "London Hair Color Restorer" can oe obtained at all the leading druggists at 75 cents a bottle, or for six bottles.

SWORN EVIDENCE.

The following Cure Is probably the most remarkable ever effected by any medical preparation for the treatment of

Catarrh: Gentlemen,— I hereby certify thnt I hare hod Catarrh for ten years, and for the last six wars have been a terrlblo sufferer. I was rendered partially deaf had buzzing in the hesid, pains across the temple. dizzy spells, weak unrt painful eyes, swollen and ulcerated tonsils, hard and constant cough, severe pain across the chrst, and every Indication of consumption. My head nehed all the time. Tho matter accumulated so rapidly In my heart and throat that I could not keep them free. Frequently at nlKht I would ppring out of bt il. It sruraed to me, at the point of suffocation. I would tlirn havo recourso to every means la my power to dislodge the mucus from my throat ana head before being ablo to sleep nkaIu. For a period of six years my tonsils wero ulccrnted and so mnrh inflamed that I could with difficulty swallow. 1 finally consulted an eminent surgeon lu regnrd to an operation on them, but at Ills request postponed it. The constant Inflnmniation and ulceration in my throat caused by tho poisonous matter dropping iIowh from my head had so irritated and Inflamed luy lunirathnt I couched incessantly, —a deep, hard coujjh. Mcanwlillo my system began tosliowtlie effeclsof tills disease, so that I lost flesh, grew pale, and showed every symptom of en early death by consumption. When matters had reached this stage, or about six months ago, I began the nse of Sanford'sRadical Cum fob Catarrh. After using tho first bottl began to improve rapidly. The first dose seemed toclenr my head as I had not known tt to bo for years. It seemed gradually to arrest the discharges. It Mopped my cough in three tiaijs. Br using It as a garglel soon reduced the Inflammation and swelling uf my tonsils, so that they soon ceased to troublo me. The soreness across my chrst disappeared, the buzzing noises in my head censed, my senses of seeing ana of hearing were completely restored, and every symptom of disease that hnd reduced me to the verge of the grave disappeared bv tho use of Santord's Radical Cure ron Catarrh.

I have been thus explicit berausc, n* a druggist, I havo seen a great deal of suffering from Cutarrh. and hope to convinco many that tills Is a great remedy.

I am familiar with tho treatment of Catarrh as practised by tho best physicians, and have cotioa'.ted th» most eminent, about my case. I have used every kind of remedy and apparatus that have appeared during a period of six years past, and have, while following tlielr use, taken great care, of my preneral health, but obtained no relief or encouragea
