The Snow Stick Unequalled. F, M.

' Hew lock TribBM "Dis yere's a mighty col' climate',' he said, getteng into a cross seat in an elevated train and piling op a bag, fishing biket and three bundles around him. He was short, stout and good-natured looking, and his face was as black as the messenger of night. The one who sat opposite bim was not so dark, and be wore a silk hat and a pair of aggressively yellow gloves. "I sin wear no gloves sence lat' December," he added, determined to start a conversation. , But tbe other one looked reserv d and made' no reply. The first speaker looked at the yellow gloves with undisputed envy and added. "Ain wear so glores sence las' December, 'case I been down to Sa vannah," and he paused to see the effdct of the announcement. MVe ain got no caisbun to wear gloves en Savannah," be added, dwell ing fondly on tbe "Savannah," and the dignity of tbe owner ot the yellow gloves unbent a little. "Ain' et hot down en Geowg'a dis yere time,' Yo' climat' mecks me fael lack malarial chills. I jess come back." The glory of the tanned gloves seemed to iad, for the man addressed drew bis liandsu far as possible np bis sleeves. "What yo ben doin, en Geowgiaf he asked, deciding to be neighborly. "I ben en Savannah fh my health sence las' Decenber," was the reply in so loud a voice that every one in tbe car could hear it and at this the gloves were thrust into overcoat pockets and tbe other man looked abashed, quite meek a id respectful. "rob tie Lawd.yo should aee d alley gat j urea gre.it big black cuaees. Dey jess swarm ea de canals. Dej mouths Is la; a -doa when dey open em."

Frenchman Wbo Spent All - -This Time In Slavery Oarmu Recently Christoph Daniel's familv and friends in the village of Greisen- 8 tern were in a state of great agita tion as well as the most heartfelt or. They had a son who had been wounded at Gravelotte ia the war of 870. ' The parents had received a certificate of his death, saying that he had died on the 21st of August. o the great iov of parents and riends this death notice has proven false. Lately the parents received a letter from their son Henry in Algiers. This was the very one hey thought had died nineteen years before. Henry Daniel relates in his letter that he had been taken prisoner by the Turks, brought to Africa and given to a plantation owner as a present 1 There he worked for nine teen years as slave and suffered the most cruel treatment; meat was thrown to him raw, he had no chotb- ingoa his bodv since 1870. He said that he made six attempts to escape, Having failed every time. Finally, when the plantation owner was dead and buried, his escape was suceaafuL Three days and three ninhtt la was t his flight until he all exhausted and tired out It Ut city ia which he fell he was cared lot and concealed at the time ot hit writing a letter home by German tradespeople. This had been the first chance he had of sending any notice to his parents. The son heartily begged his parents to have him set free. 'The very evening of the receipt of the letter tha father informed the circuit officials as well as the Royal Council, whereupon dispatches were sent to Berlin to effect the final re- ease of the poor fellow. ' Can This Be True? . SmUuob In Bidunoa (Vtj State I have heard a good deal of late about the ignorance of children in the public schools about the Uon- ederacy ana tbe great leadeis of tbe Confederacy. I cannot understand how this could be. 1 am not at all amiliar with school methods or the books that are used in the schools, bat I cannot imagine how southern teachers would allow the young ideas to shoot in other than the right di rection. I mean to say that young ideas ought to grow in the know ledge of historic truth. I heard re cently that soon after Jefferson Davis died, one of our public school principals or teachers, a Mr Iwwlea, believe it was, asked all the pupils in a certain room who could tell something about Mr. Davis to hold up the band. Only one in the whole room held np the hand. And all that that boy or girl could tell was that Jeff Davit "was a general iu the Southern Confederacy. Can this state ox affairs be true? I am no Bourbon. 1 believe in the Am erican Union, but 1 do think it is a shame a down tight shame that our children are not instructed in this great historic question. lam glad to see that Mayor Ellyson has offered a prize in the name of the School Board for the best essay on Mr. Davis, who was one of the sublimest characters that the world has ever produced. Hair on the Free List. tt PMl PlO&MT PTM Who is the woman in the cae? Her name it at present withheld from the public, but she lives in Wisconsin.

Of course, Adaa-and-Eve truth before the fal wears no clothes, but if truth was to anttt&r even at a fashionable recep tion in that style to-day it would certainly attract more attention than it seems to do. The troth is that truth has got more disguises ban a costume-eeuer. Chestnut bars, like milliners, have fopeniogs. DO OIGST The world stretches brightly before you, A field for you muscle and brain, And though clouds may often float o'er you, And often comes tempest and rain, Be fearless of storms which o'ertake you Push forward through all like a man Good fortune will never forsake you, If you do as near right as you can.
