Score 10 to O,Tha game between tbe Dover Base Ball
Club and the Alerts, of Phllllpsburg, lastSaturday afternoon was very poor, for theAlerts were not what they were "crackedup to be," or what they were represented toManager Meafoy to be. The score at theend of the first half of the eighth Inning stood10 to 0 in favor of Dover. Tbe visitors thengave it up as a bad job for they knew therewas no further use in playing. As it was,the game lasted one hour and forty-five min-utes and many of tbe spectators left in dis-gust before tha game was stopped. ManagerMeafoy was very much put out at the resultof the game fur, as he told an Eiu. represent-ative, he had been deceived, the team havingbeen represented to him as a first-class one.The nineteen runs scored were made la thesecond, third, fifth, sixth and seventh innings.After the sixth inning Clancy was put In thebox, as Captain Geager thought there wasno use in Crowe wasting any more time andstrength, Crowe was put in right field and" Solly" went to third base. To square him-self, in part, with the spectators who weredisappointed with Saturday's game ManagerMeafoy has arranged a treat for next Tues-day, May 16, when the home team will crossbats with the Cuban X Giants. A good gameis guaranteed. The score of Saturday's gamefollows:

* of fi:»w due to storm and ll>xjrill perhaps bs taken, or to plead
authority of siarat* law for a proposed di-vftrsoa in disregard of the ordinary ripariancTrncr-s privet; rights Is tlii strcmu. Aa Lothese, Chancellor Mciiill says, in regard tolibe injury done to the purity of the streamunder an alleged license from the Legislature
that against such legislative enactment,private rights have oonstitutlon&l pro-tection." (Attorney General vs. Pa'erson);or, as Chancellor Zabristle puts it, "Takingthe property of man and giving it to anotheris not making a law or rule of action. It is
lion, it is simply robbery." (Costervs. Tidewater Co., 18 >'. J. Eq.); and ViceChancellor Fitney lays down tbe rule that
the L/'fcislature does not possess, and basnot attempted to exercise, the power of autiiorudng the diversion of water ot runningstreams upon condition of mas ing compen-sation by storing storm and flood water, andgiving it ont in dry times for the benefit ofthe riparian owners, &» compensation for tbediversion " (Sparks Mfg. Co. vs. Town ofNewton, X. J., Rq.W&Sj.
The reasoning that U conclusive in the Fat-ersou case against the introduction of sewageinto the Fassaic ri?er being an invasion ofthe public rights of riparian owners appliesequally well, and on tbe same ground, to anyimpairment of its volume: " Each has theright to have the identical water reach himin its pure natural condition, except as theproper domestic and reasonable uses of tberiparian owners above him may affect it." Itwas decided in tbe Newton case that a townwhich erects dams and waterworks upon astream does not thereby become a riparianowner within the meaning of this ruin.
There is no hint here that water may not,under existing statute*, be appropriated by apublic corporation for tbe supply of a city,under condemnation proceedings, where theuse is clearly a public one. The vital pointof Mr. Phillips's contention Is that the pro-posed diversion of the Rockaway river is noifor a public use, and therefore tbe right ofcondemnation cannot be exercised. The de-cision in the Slingerland case will probablybe quoted against this position. That waa acase where land was taken by the East JerseyWater Company, in the name of the city ofNewark, for the construction of tbe Newarkaqueddct; the decision turning upon the ques-tion of agency. It was there held that, thecity of Newark having exercised the optionof purchasing the plant and works upon theircompletion, tbe East Jersey Company's relstlon to the city was that of a contractor foithe construction of the works, and not thatof a contractor for furnishing water to thicity—clearly Imp'ying that, had the optionnot been exercised, the East Jersey WaterCompany would not have been in any legalsense tbe agent of the city.
This distinction is affirmatively made inPanders vs. Bloefield Water Works Com-pany, found in £8 Federal Reporter (0. S,Circuit Court, W. B. Virginia, 1893). Tbecompany having mode contracts with thecity of Bluefield and the Norfolk and Westem Bailroad Company to supply those cor-porations with Water, and having acquiredtitle to a parcel of laud situated at the heatof a stream, claimed that it had secured theright to divert, for the purpose of such water^PPly* the waters of a certain spring situatecon the premises.
In that case the court, after stating thefacts, says: " I t does not appear that thepurpose for which defendant proposes to taktthe water and divert it from its channel Is forpublic use, but to fulfil its contracts in theinterest of its own private gain." The de-cision is thus summed up, as to the preeeuipoint:
" L A water company having contracts tosupply a city and a railroad company withwater for its own profit has no greater power,as a riparian proprietor, to take water froman unnavigable stream, than has a privateindividual.
" 2 . Tbe appropriation of the water ofunn&vigable stream by a riparian owner,such quantities as to unreasonably diminishthe sapply of other riparian, owners, is aprivate nuisance, for which on injunctionwill lie."
The indication, therefore, is that Flynnwill be enjoined from diverting the Rock'away river on Fhillips's application, unlesstbe city exercises the option to purchase be-fore work is begun upon the contract, whichwould be tantamount to the city building itiown. works. The pretense made in the apeelncation of delegating to tbe contractor thicity's franchise for exercisine the right oeminent domain would not, otherwise, beworth the paper on which it is written.
Assuming that the contractor can in hisown name proceed to condemn tbe right totake water, the act wooJd be that of a privateIndividual taking bis neighbor's property f<his own use, a proceeding not only unconstitutionol bat Intolerable an equitable grounds.Mr. Phillips will have rendered an .mportanipublic service when he has forced these qatfons to a judicial conclusion.
The crusade for the purity of streams bagshown that it must, in the end. rest with thicourt* to preserve thd potable waters of thoState for the common benefit : both to maintain equitable control over them as betweenindividuals, and to protect the public rlghitherein. This rigbt is menaced by selfishlocal appropriation, whether it be by privateadventures, by municipalities, or by theperpetuation of the Morris Canal Companyfranchise as a water monopoly, after it shallhave resigned its original and proper func-tion of maintaining a navigable highwayl
with the concurrence of the Legislature, asprovided in the unrighteous bill now pendings t Trenton.

When {ihc- turns from hennirror, veilud,Mo.*.-"!)) crowned, ready- to depart, and herfattier seats her Ijcsido him, ho hns t«gaiher courage while the ciirriUKu rollsforward to the church, re-uieinhering thatthwe lire his last mujiient.-i of puriSL' iun,re.tlJziny that nil this loveliness will nn\s-untly, by his own act, bo given to the.kwpiiiK of another, lie remembers tholul^tiikcs, tho errors of judgment, tho uu-truimtl Beliishnees of his own youth, andItf known Tlie man sho lows is human likehimself. It is not im en«y part lie, has tolilny in this llfodmma. Tho denouementlimy not come until ho has slept with hisfathers, lie nmy never know what itsHtml mxiw wtl) be. lie is only certainthat he is setting in motion the, wholopossible nction, with its measureless re-sult, by his owu word and consent.
These thoughts preps homo on the par-ents'hearts ns thuy stand in their desertedhouse after the door has closed upon tholnsb wedding guest. Was there ever suchnn anticlimax as thnt hour brings forth?Confusion, disorder, faded llowcrs, brokenwreaths, emptiness! Even the scats wheretho musicians sat so short a time ago ex-press tho end of it till! A curious aspectu[ desertion, of something lost and neverto be found, attaches itself oven to inani-mate things.
A tender nod beautiful sequences nob In-frequently follows the wcA'ding of theirchild in tho renewed love of tho fatheranil mother. If their lives have been fondand faithful, they live over agnln theirown days of courtship nntl prow reminis-cent of their early married life. Unusedto seo much demonstration of affection intheir parents' quiet manners, tho childrenare surprised to see them draw apart andtalk together privately. Their yearninghearts take counsel from fond memories,mid from experience they strive to forecastthe future for thulr fledgling. Withoutmuch speech concerning tho present theycomfort 0110 another.
I can recall two dear old people peculiar-ly reserved in tho matter of caresses or en-dearing forms of speech who after thoiimrriugo of two sons were saen walkingtogether in their garden In a June twilightIn most loyerllko absorption. l* Fatherund mother firo having a little honeymoonof their own," said the younger children,nntl they were right.
Whom duubt lurks in a father's heart,either as to the character of the man hisdaughter has married or of his motives Inwooing her, his pain must bo sharp in-deed! Tho knell like sound of thoso fewbut fatal words which bind a mnn andtvoiumi together tint)] death shall partthem must bo far more sorrowful, moreheartbreaking, than the toll o! funeralbells. We may hold whichever side wechooso of the indissoluble or frangible na-ture of the marriage tie, bat deep down inthe hidden heart men and women knowthat whatever tho law may do to free themfrom each other, thoso lives can never failto act and react upon each other so longus ihoy both do lire. To see children dlois surely easier than to BOO them marryunder Influences which promise heart-break and misery.
As wo watch tho whole beautiful pa-geant of a wedding how seldom do wotike heed of the probable self abnegationwhich makes this new departure, thisereutiim of u new lionie, possible! It In ararely blessed union which is not sealedby the tender love sacrlilce of ono or otherparent's heart. None but the most eclfJahmother or father would hesitate to throwall tho weight of their approval, all thoaid of their assistance, into tho ecalo inwhich the satisfying at their child's hearthung In the balance, but it is mother na-turo to crave tho first placo in her boy'slove-, and It Is a big wrench which loosestho father's hold on his pet girl.
Tho old phrase "seeing our children set-tled in life" has a deep meaning in Itsplain words. Wo would indeed sco themtake root in fioine more sustaining BOIIthiin our fading, falling liven afford totheir future; we would not loaro our sonswithout the safeguard of ft home, 11 placo"WIUTU love- hoih gives shelter nml invokesa man's l>est endeavor; wo would notleave our girls without a rtrong nrn) bu*turn* them ami tho onslaught of thuworld's hard blows.
Always tho same gato of relief lies opento human pain, the door of self forgctful-iiess. As tho old hone grows vacant the"W one will liicxvtitt; in life titul glowwith ever growing warmth; as the oldhome hushes to stillness children's voiceswill laugh and echo in the CIIUIIIIKTH ofthe new. The heart must expand and takein the new life and its Utvt&nml live inthem "Forward und not back, out andHot in, up and not down," dear fathersand mothers, and a health to tho bride!—New York Post.

A Fretty Improvised Panel.A very pretty way to fill up an ugly
spneo between two door cusinys which Isnot suitable to hang a picture in, or inenso ono docs not own a picture tho propersize und bhapo, is to takoa length of chinasilk of a harmonious tint and lay it intucks standing upward. It in necessaryto begin at tho top of the space, at thofrieze, if possible, and lay tho tucks deepenough to hold up photographs. Thesotucks should bo tucked with brass headedtacks to keep them in place and tho Bilkdrawn tightly across tho space.
Thla is JI pretty decoration even withbut a few pictures if tho color Is wellchosen. Where there tire a great manypictures and the background ia completelycovered a firm quality of a less expensiveinntcvhil will do just as well.
Where- there in n set of pictured whichwould make a straight string of viewsacross thu panel tho silk can bo especiallyarranged so as to form a top fold as woll(is the lower folding fold with pretty ef-fect.

To Blake-Good Ten.Professor Goudfellow, tho woll known
English analyst, gives theso rules for mak-ing "good" tea:
First.—Always use good tea.Second.—Uss "two" hot, dry eartheo-
waro teapots.Third.—Us© soft water which has Just
got to tho boil.Fourth.—Infuse about four minutes.Fifth.—Pour off into tho second hot,
dry teapot.Sixth.—Avoid second brows with used
tea leaves.Tho fact that ten as served in Franco is
so often bad may bo accounted for by thoomission of aomo ono or perhaps all of tboabove rules In its preparation. They aroall necessary to make a cup of really goodtea, and If they were moro often strictlyadhered to tea would, oftener bo a deliciousbeverage.
Even at tho beat "afternoon t«a" roomsin England, America and Franco I do notbelieve- that " two" hot, "dry" teapots arooften used to mako tea "fresh for eaohcustomer" or that tho tea leaves thereafterare thrown away.

Chitjuita is a little Cuban lady who hnsbeen to Europe and nil over the UnitedStates, nnd, while shu is 2« years old, shonever lias paid any money for railroad orsteamboat tickets.
The reason of this is that Chiquita iaonly 21}£ inches high, and when showants to travel 6hc dresses up as a bnby,and they don't charge babk-H anything.Her maid carries hur off and on to tho

ThenChiquita snaps her black eyes and beginsto talk, and then lnughn when the peoplelook so surprised.
When Chiquita goes shopping, fifie ridesin a baby carriage and plnys pranks onthe clerks in the stores.
Slio is very glad she Is not a real baby,and'sometimes Bho wishes she could be biglike other people, but she cannot, and /isihe Is a cheerful little body sho forgetB allabout that us quickly as sho can, which Istho best way.—Exchange.
The Anvil Bird.At dust In the wilds of tho gloomy Bra-
zilian forest you will think It strange,says Our Aninrnl Friends, to hear thoclink of a hammer ou nn anvil. Youwould imngino thnt you were approachingBomo settlement and the picture of theruddy glow of tho forge would como upbefore your eyes.
But If your guide wero a native howould tell you that tho sound was madeby a campancro, ns they call It, althoughto foreigners It Is known «s the anvil bird.
This bird Is a little larger than a thrush.Tho plumage in* perfectly white, tho eyesaro a pale gray color, and the naked throatand skin around tho eyes aro of a linebright green, wliilo its moro northerlyrelative Is oraugo anil block, very muchlike our oriole.
It Is generally In the early part of theday that tho campaiiero sends forth thewonderful noto that cou be beard at a dis-tance of thrco miles. Marvelous indeedmust be tho mechanism of tho vocal or-gans of so small a bird to produce so far-reaching a noto, but thero is no doubt offcbo tact, tor many travelers have beardtho strango sound uttered by tho birdwhen perched on tho topmost branch ofsome withered tree.

In 1783 the United States had only 827,&14square milea of land; now It has 3,609,694square miles, 2,76-2,000 having been added byannexation. Louisiana was purchased fromFranceml6O3; Florida was taken from Spainin 1710 lor $5,000,000; tbe Texan Republicwas ceded in l&JA, and by treaty with Mexicoia 1848. ThB United States acquired part ofArizona, Utah and Colors io by paying f 13,-250,000. In 1853 the Mesilla VaUey, Arizona'ssouthern border, was purchased for $10,000,*000. Alaska was purchased fmm Russia in18tt7 for {< ,200,000 and nobody thought ofasking the consent of the governed to tbetransaction.

M1I<TON AKD VICINITY.Qaite a number of persons came to tbe
Baptist Church last Sabbath afternoon tobear the Rev. Conrad Vreeland preach onhis trip to other lauds made last summer.His text was ia Exodus; but there, I haveforgotten what ft was, and that reminds meof a story 1 read years ago of an aged couple.On a Sabbath morning the wife for somereason could not go to church, so the husbandhad to go alone. Wishing to know the textthe minister would preach from, she re-quested her husband to be sure and remem-ber it, which he tried to do, repeating It overand over on the way. On arriving at homethe wife asked: " Well, what was the text PHe requested that the bible be brought,seated himself and, clearing his throat, herepeated; " An injao came down from New-Haven and took a live colt by the tail andjerked ft out of the hal'er." Tbe address ofthe Rev. Mr. Vreelaud was very interesting.For an hour and a half ha spoke of hii trip toChicago, &an Fraucisco. Japan and CbinaThat was as for as he got in his address. Heshowed a pair of chop sticks which served tbeJapanese in place of forks and spoons, alsotbe queer shoes of the Japanese and the Idolsthey worship. Among otber things a canewhich be brought from Jauan from tbelargest tree in tbe world, the branches ofwhich are so Urge that it was necessary toput props under them; a sea shell from the
spring of Moses," at the Dead Sea; a horseshue and nail, I forget where he got them;several other Idols and last of alia pair ofChinese ladles' shoes, about two and a halfinches in length. One can hardly believethat the feet can be kept so small as to wearsuch tiny thoes, but be related as a fact thatbe saw ladies walking tbe street with shoesnot more than three and a half inches in1-ngth.

The little Dutchboy who stopped theleak in the dike witbbis finger saved hiscountry from over-whelming destruc-tion. You have readabout him in yourschool readers, howhe was walking alongthe dike when heheard a faint soundof trickling water,and knew at once thata leak, had •prang in that great embank-ment which saves Holland from the devas-tations of the hungry aea. It was early inthe night, and no one was near at baud.The leak was small wben lie found it, buthe knew that the action of the water wouldenlarge it long before morning, and washasray tbe entire embankment, inundate tbecountry and destroy bis own and thou-sands of homes. So he bravely put hisfinger in the crevasse, and kept it there allthe long night through, until help came andthe opening1 was properly stopped. He hadsaved bis country.

If the open-ing is not watched, it will gTow larger,until tbe SWPCB of disease overwhelmsyou, and health and perhaps life is de-stroyed forever.

Miss NA.VCIE SHOBF:, Florence,Col., writes a letter to Mrs. Pink-ham from which we quote :
"I had been in poor health for some time, my troubles hav-ing been brought on by standing;, so my physician said, caus-ing serious womb trouble. I had to give up my work. I wasjust a bundle of nerves and would have fainting spells atmonthly periods. I doctored and took various medicines, but
got no relief, and when I wrote to youI could not walk more than four blocksat a time. I followed your advice, tak-ing Lydia E. Pinkham's Blood Purifierin connection with the Vegetable Com-pound and began to gain in strength
! from the first. I am getting to be aj stranger to pain and I owe it all to your[medicine. There is none equal to it,
for I have tried many others be-j fore using yours. Words cannotj be said too strong in praise of it."
Miss POLLV FRAME, Meade,]Kan., writes:
•PEAR MRS. PI.VKHAM—I feel itI my duty to write you in regard toj what your medicine has done for
_ me. I cannot praise itenough. Since my girlhoodI had been troubled with ir-
reg-nlar and painfuiperiods and for nearlyfi>e years had sufferedwith falling of thewomb, and whites. Alsohad ovarian trouble, the
left ovary being- so swollen and sore that I could not movewithout pain. Now, thanks to your wonderful medicine, thattired feeling is all gone, and I am healthy and strong."

Republican members of tbe new Board ofFreeholders, of whom there are thirteen, a tnoon on Wednesday filed Into the freeholders'room, where the nine Democratic membersof tbe board had been awaiting their comingwith no little curiosity as to tbe outcome ofthe caucus. The suspense lasted only a few-momenta. Clerk Frank E. Everett, after apreliminary rap of the gavel, announced that11 this is the day fixed for organization of theboard." He then proceeded to call tbe rolland when all had responded, called fornominations for Director of tbe Board.Freeholder Dalrymple nominated Merritt B.Lum and Freeholder Bowman named ThomasII Hoaglaud. The board was polled withthe result that Mr. Lum was escorted to thechair by Freeholders F&ncher and Milledge,who were delegated to do thin by Mr. Everett.
Mr. Lam briefly expressed bis thanks forthe honor conferred upon him and then urgedthe need of the exercise of greater economyin the administration of tbe affairs of thecounty.
Mr. Everett was unanimously re-appointedto tbe clerkship of the board, whereuponDirector Lum appointed tbese committeesand declared a recess until 2 o'clock :

The budget for tbe ensuing year was sub-mitted by Freeholder Milledge but as it wanfound that tbe sum total exceeded the statu-tory limit, the committee retired to paredown the appropriations.

" T h e Proof ot tbe Faddlatr*"Manager Oscar Peer, of the Dover District
of the Colonial Life Insurance Company ofAmerica, has over since his flrst connectionwith that company maintained that tbe Col-onial issued more liberal industrial insurancepolicies than any other iudustrial iusurancecompany in the State of New Jersey, if notin the United States. Mindful of the saylagthat the proof of tho pudding Is the eatingthereof, Manager Peer relates tho followingstory, saying it is only one of thu many Inci-dents which go to prove tbe liberal plan onwhich the industrial policy of the ColonialLife Insurance Company is patterned :
The late Lutbor J. Lawrcnco, who livednear Dover, on the back road to Franklin,was some seven months ago Induced by anagpnt of the Colonial Life Insurance Com-pany to take out a life insurance policy, al-though ho was in bla flfty-flrat year. IrfistSaturday Mr, Lawrence died. He had paidin only {2,80 to tbo company, and here Is thopoint on which the manager of the DoverDistrict lays tho greatest stress: Instead ofiecelvlng only one-half of tho faco valuo ofthe policy, as would have bueu tho COSB Inany other iudustrial insurance company Intiie Htate, tbo hoira of tbo deceased wero bothsurprised and pleased to find that the Col-onial) following its usual ciiBtom, allowedthem the full faco valueof tlio policy—$08.10,although only $3.80 had been paid.
Manager Poor is justly proud of the com-pany he represents aud its methods of doingbusiness, and can always quote Bomo such In-cident as the abovo when arguing in favor oftho Colonial's industrial policy. The Colonialban been In business less thnn two years, butft hog already out-fitripped many, if not all,ot IU competitors in tho Industrial llpe.

A SEWING CROW.
itf Displayed liy tlic Itlril.Perhaps of »U my birds the ona 1 called
the sewing crow wus tlic most amusing.It-was a glossy black bin} nltuut tho sizeof a thrush, with paloyKllw-feiil nmt wingfeathers und curious light bluu uyua withvery blue rims. It wua brought fromVenezuela, and its lwail Spanish uumemeans "the ricobird," but it never spe-cially affected rice us food, preferring fruitand meal worms. 1 hud several of thesecrows, but one was particularly tamo andrambled about the house flecking for sow-ing materials. I found It onco or twiceInside a lurgo work bn? full of urowulH,trhure it hud gone In search of gay threadswith which it used to decomto tho wlrowalla of an empty ougo kept In tho vorandaoutside my own sitting mum. Tlio ex-traordinary putlonce and ingenuity of thatbird in passing tho wool through thomeshes of tho wire can hivrdly bo describ-ed. I supposo it was a reininlaceiico ofneet building, because it always workedharder tu tho springtime.
It had a grunt friend In a little "mo-rtoliQ," blaok and yellow ulso, but of amore slender build und with a vary sweetwhistle. Tho "moricho," too, was per-feotly tame and ilew all about tho houso,and it was very comlo to watch Its effortsat looming embroidery from Its friend. Itarrived at last at Bomo sort of cago decora-tion, but quits different) from thut ct thocrow, who evidently disapproved of it andoften ruthlessly pulled tho work of a la-borious morning on tho "moHchoV partto pieces. Now tho "moricho1' know bet-ter than to touch tho crow's work, thoughhe often appeared to carefully oxnmino it,
Ono day tho crow muBt havo persuadedthei(morieho" to holp him to roll anddrag n reel of course white cotton from thooorridor of the workrnoiu, across tho floorof my sitting room. Into tho veranda. Isaw them doing thin mure than onco andhad unintentionally Interfered with thocrow's plans by picking up tho reel und re-turning it to the maid's work basket.However, ona nftornoon the crow got ridof mo entirely, and on my return from IIlong expedition I found both tho crow und•'morlohe" just going to roost In thoempty cage, whioh was really only keptthere for them to play in. X then perceiv-ed what the reel of cotton, which waaagain lying ou the vornnrtu door, had boonwonted for.
The crow hud sewed a straw armchairwith an open patterned Beat securely tothe cage by nine very long strands andwas sleepily contemplating the work withgreat satisfaction. It was quite easy tosee how it had managed, onco a start wonmade with the cotton, but it must Imveentailed a groat deal of flying in and outWith the end of tho cotton, for It had notbean broken off. Of course I loft tho chairin Ita place, and it remained untouchedfor some months, but I always htul to uaoIt myself lest any one should move it tooroughly and so break the connectingBtrands wbluh had cost my llttlo bird somuch labor and trouble.—Cornhiil Maga-slne.

STEVENS' STORY.
There was only one real trouble "WithBob Htovens, wliion waa that ho had astory to tell. And indeed this would havebeen all well enough If ho could over havedisposed of it—that Is, if ha oould everhave Lold It. But futo must hnvo uiodi-
ited a revenge upon Stevens. She mustliavo decreed that he should never finishla recital. Tho tact la he v,aa slow. He
WUB too exact, and too much exactness i&futnl diseaso—a consumption when it
'astens itself upon ftrt. Wo may prnise anjxuet man for his pains, but we deploreis tedionsnoss.A reporter told tne he would get Ste-
rens' Rtory, give him all tho tiiuo ho want-ed and print tho thing in a Mouduy morn-ing editlou of his picper, that being thelay whoa there waa room tor almost anyhing, and he mode an appointment withiim. But Stevens got drunk before heiad ontercd upon hlg home stretch, and the^porter found ha held a tailless kitehlrliugln the air.It wu8 a Cullfornia etory, relating to
;ho early days of that wonderful country,tnd I have since discovered that life 1Blull of unfinished California etorles. 1lon'fc know why amim can't finish a Call •!ornla story. He can finish un ArkanBonitory or a Texas story, but there 1B some-thing tho mutter with u California story.Stevens had lived a long tlmo 1B the town.Fht3 people wore peaccahlo aud Industrious,ind for years they were disposed to lUtcno his story; tboy had glvoii him everyipportunity a man oould deslro; thoy hadiven encouraged him, but ho always fellown. No one oharged tho fault to him
—that is, directly—but overy ono felt thatman, regardless of circumstances, should
bo to some extent tho master of his ownstory. It seemed, though, that StovenBnever could bo the master of bis narra-ive, and It became a joko throughout a
community nmrkod for its whimsical lovof humor. Whenever au important stran-
ger came to town It was regarded as wit toIntroduce him to Stevens and ask for thoBtory. Although this was often repeated,Stevens never seemed to appreciate thofoot that ho was tho objoct of rldloule.How often have I seen him "wallop" thetobacco about In his mouth with pleasureat tho thought that hia tlmo had coma atlaat, and how familiar wore his introduc-tory words:
"It muy not be of vital interest, you un-derstand—but you never can toll what avital lntorosb Is till you have heard It, fora story is not a Btory till It's told—but; Itwas in 1849, Now of course there arehousands of men in this community who
have grown up since tliGU certainly, for asyou can wclHwo-I ammo youngster, andthey may and indeed they have not anypationco with things that took place wayback there, but wo haven't the time totake them into account. I have begun togauge a man's intelligence—surely a
oung man's—by tho way ho listens tolomothlug told by older men. Well11—
"But aro you curtain, Bob, it was In1840?" some one at this point invariablywould ask. Hera a look of trouble wouldoomo into tho narrator's eyes,
"Why, of course I know what year Itwas. I huvo huvo all my life made It apoint never to tell a thing that hasn'tbeen thoroughly verified in my own mind.''
"Bucyou know a man is likely to bet k "mlHtako!:.
*'Oh, I know that as well as anybody,pjid no 0110 couitt ua more careful thaa Iam, because I—I wouldn't mislead a childIf I could avoid it,"
"Tho misleading of a child la u graveroffense iu tho sight of the Lord than themisleading of a man," an authority onmorals and early frosts would horo .remark;.
"That'strue," Stevens wouldOeolare.I know it, and whonovor I talk to
ohildren I always bear that fact In mb:d-
"But your story, Hob? We all want tohear I t "
"Yes; all right. I suppose many of youolder men remombor old LeatherhcadOawson. Lived out here on tho old mili-tary road. Ho"—
l*Isho themanwhoowuedth.etwob.Bad-od oaltt"
It wo? a two headed pig."No; it was « calf."Woll, now, hold on. I ought to know,
for ho nnd I wcro"—•"I'll bet you ?10 it was a oalf."On several occasions the money was put
up, but It could uover be settled, thoughStoyens always maintained, and Bome-times With violence, that tho freak was apig. Onco ho called Sam Dabney a liar,and any one who knows tho Dabney fam-ily can well imagine what the resultmight havo been had not some ono sug-gested a drink all around.
As Stevens becumeolder ho became mor-bid. Once liG armed hiniBelf and sworesome ono in that town must hear the endof tho story. The mayor, as dry a followas over tilted a jug, called for volunteers,and ono man came forward, or ratherwas pushed forward. He was turned overto Stevens, and tho others withdrew. Thestory had proceeded, as was Bald, past thefifth trot, through tho hobble and Intothe leisurely walk when Stevens dlsoov-orod that tho man was a deaf mute. Hesued tho muyor, hutjustlco in that com-munity was slow, and tho case never cameto trial. In a whimsical community thesleep of tho law is sound, and often Justicesits nodding in tho lazy sunlight.
Stevons was an expert accountant, buthe was usually out of employment. It Issingular that tho most competent man Ina whimsical community Is the first to losehis job and tho lust to regain it. I don'tunderstand why thla faofe has not beentrwntwl by tho political economist. Per-haps ho will take it up when it becomesmore obvious and less interesting. Well,the proprietor of 11 largo hardware estab-lishment offered Stovons tho position ofbookkeeper. Tho post was accepted.Stevens worked hard, and out of thla ap-plication of tho mind scorned to grow arecognition of tho fact that ho had been

New Yotk'« Early Social Life.Ono cannot think without n smile of

Tho light menl, eatenfrom tho shining mahogany board, wasconsidered ample as far aa viands wont,and tho graco with which tho hostess asked.If you would take 'tea or coffee, sugar andcreum* made thoso harmless liquids suill-alenclv delightful.
"To bo asked to 'Buunil an evening'meant usually a moro formal und less ns-Burcd pleasure Sitting rouud a hospitableboard relaxed stiffness. Whist or 'a llttlomusic' made very goutly ond sliyly by thodaughters of the family wero tlio regularsources of ontertalnmont. Refreshments,handed by neat maids or solemnly digni-fied butlers, closed the evening's festivityat an early hour, Unhuppy youths hadof necessity to Btutly, among polite no-oomplishmonts, how to hold tholr platesand yet oat from them, how to aid thonearest ladles and at tho sawo time keeppossession of a cup and saucer."

Score 10 to O.The game between tbe Dover Base Ball
Club and the Alerts, of Phillipeburg, lastSaturday afternoon was very poor, for theAlerts were not what they were "crackedup to be," or what they were represented toMjmager Meafoy to be. The score at theend of the first half of tbe eighth inning stood19 to 0 In favor of Dover. The visitors thengave it up as a bad job for they knew therewas no further use In playing. As It was,the game lasted one hour and forty-five min-utes and many of the spectators left in dis-gust before the game was stopped. ManagerMeafoy was very much put out at tbe resultof the game fur, as he told an IJRA represent-ative, he bad been deceived, tbe team having
been represented to him as a first-class one.The nineteen runs scored were made in theBecond, third, fifth, sixth and seventh Inning.After the sixth inning Clancy was put in thebox, as Captain Geager thought there wasno use in Crowe wasting any more time andstrength. Crowe was put in right field and" Solly" went to third base. To square him-self, in part, with the spectators who weredisappointed with Saturday's game ManagerMeafoy has arranged a treat for next Tues-day, May 16, when the home team will crossbats with the Cuban X Giants. A good gameis guaranteed. The score of Saturday's gamefollows :

Score 10 to 0.
The game between tbe Dover Baaa BallClub and tbe Alerts, of Pbilllpsburg, lastSaturday afternoon was very poor, for theAlerts were not what they were " crackedup to be," or what they were represented toManager Meafoy to be. The score at theend of the first half of the eighth inning stood10 to 0 In favor of Dover, The visitors thengave it up as a bad job for they knew therewaa no further use in playing. As it was,the game lasted one hour and forty-five min-utes and many of the spectators left In dis-gust before the game waa stopped. ManagerMeafoy was very muah put out at the result;of the game fur, as he told an RA represent-ative, he had been deceived, tbe team havingbeen represented to him as a first-class one.The nineteen runs scored were made in thesecond, third, fifth, sixth and seventh innings.After the Bixth Inning Clancy was put In thebox, as Captain Qoager thought there wasno use in Crowe wasting any more time andstrength. Crowe was put in right field and
Solly" went to third base. To square him-self, in part, with the spectators who weredisappointed with Saturday's game ManagerMeafoy- has arranged a treat for next Tues-day, May 16, when the home team will crossbats with the Cuban X Gtlante. A good gameIs guaranteed. The score of Saturday's gamefollows :

Tbf-ann*iuu«:fiienttfaattht riparian owialDDg the Paisaic *i^er will oocU-=t incHiro the propecoi diversion of the K *
y rivPr, by Contractor Flynu, for a watersupply to Jersey City, h^ attracted raurbattenuon. While it U au aswnion of the m-eoctestable rights which the iu-iividual
rDer bas in the stream, it is not^tioo nf war ui-on the policy of
private corporations or individuals to exer-cise control over the potable running wateisof the State. This term ot usurpation, if un:
rely ronl«t«dattheout«',win developvcalled vt*t*O ngbfc wbich will maleablea uiODopoJy of t b e availaWe polab es of this section of the State. It is net
strange tbat Mr. FoiHii^ letter of warningto FlTnn bas arou^l tbe enthusiasm of hiBimmediate constituency, and it is saf<tbat in a judicial battle waged on the groundshe bas formulated, the public seutiweut ottbe entire State will be with the complain-ants.
Mr. Phillip's argument is, first, tbst theriparian owner, as sucb, has rights in thestream wliicb can only be taken frmn hiro bydue p>w*S8 of law. Second, tbat appr pri-•itton of tbe water of the stream by a con-tractor for furnishing water supply to a towndoes not constitute a public use. Tbird, tbatis no defense to claim tuat the rights of d<>wn-'tream owners are not infringe-! because tmlythe eiees* of Hi* duH to storm ami fl "M!waters will perfaaps be taken, or to pleadauthority of statute law fnr a proposed di-vprslon ID disregard of tbe ordinary riparian
tier's private rights in the stream. As totbeee, Chancellor McGill says, in regard tot>ie injury dfrne to the purity of the streamunder an alleged license from the Legislature"that against such legislative enactment,private rights have constitutional pro-tection." (Attorney General TS. Fa'erson};or, as Chancellor Zabriskie puts it, "Takingtbe prope- ty of man and Rivipg it to anotheris not making a law or rule of action. It haot legislation, it Is glmply robbery." (C"St«rvs. Tidewater Co., 16 N. J. Eq.); and ViceChancellor Pitney lays down the rule that"the Legislature does not possess, and hasnot attempted to eserclse, the power of au-th 'rizing the diverai in of water of runningstreams u^on condition, of making couipen-datiou by storing storm and 0»od water, andgiving it out iu dry times fur the benefit *•!tbb riparian owners, aa compensation for tb*-•liveriion" (Sparks Mfg. Co. va. Town of.Hewton, N. J-. *q , 1«K;.
Tbe reasooirg tbat is conclusive In the Pat-ersou rase against the intro-iuction pf wwageiutothePa*stic river being au IDVBSIOU ottbe public rights of riparian owners appliesequally well, and on tbe same ground, to anyImpairment of its vnlumR: "Each bas tt»-ritsbt to have tbe identical water reach bimin i's pure natural condition, except as tburoper d-0168110 and n-asonable u*-3of theripirian owners above him may affect it." It*-as decMed in tbe Newton case tbat a townrbloh erects damn and wit roro-ks upon a•treatx! do B not thereby become a ilpariauiwner within tbe meaning of this rul<*.
Tbpre Is oo bint here that water mayunder existing statute", be appropriated by apublic corporation for the supply of a city,under condemnation proceedings, where tbeuse is clearly a public one. Tb<of Mr. Philtfos'a c -nr^ntion Is ip >-ed diversion of the Rockaway river Is n>tfora public us", and therefor* tbe right ofcondemnation cannot he exercised. The de-ctsi >a in tba Sliogerlaod case will probablybe quoted apainit this position. Tbat was a.case wbere land was taken by tbe East JerseyIVriter Company, ID the name of the city ofNewark, for the construction of tbe Newarknqueddct; the decMon turning upon tbe ques-tion of agency. It was there beld tbat, tbecity of Newark having exercised the optionof purchasing; the plant and works upon tbeircompletion, the East Jersey Company's rela-tion to the city was tbat of a contractor forthe constructioa of tbe works, and not that
a contractor for furnishing water to thecity—clearly imp ylng that, bad the optioonot been exercised, tbe East Jereey WaterCompany would not have been in any legalsense the agent of the city.
This distinction is affirmatively made in'antlers VB. Bluefield Water Works Com-
pany, found in 5S Federal Reporter (U. 8.Circuit Court, W. B. Virginia, 1893). Thecompany having made contracts with thecity of Bluefield aud tbe Norfolk and Westera Railroad Company to supply those cor-porations with water, aod having acquiredtitle to a parcel of laud pltuated at the beador a stream, cUimed tbat it bad secured tberight to divert, for the purpose of such watersupplyt the waters of a certain spring situatedon the premise*.
In tbat case the court, after stating thefacts, says: "It does not appear tbat thepurpose for which defendant proposes to takethe water and divert it from its channel is forpublic use, but to fulfil its contracts in theinterest of its own private gain." Tbe de-cision Is thua summed up, as to the presentpoint:
1. A. water company having contracts tosupply a rity and a railroad company withwater for its own profit has no (creater power,as a riparian proprietor, to take water fromaa unnavfgable stream, than has a privateindividual
2. Tbe appropriation of the water of anunnavigable stream by a riparian owner, ininch quantities as to unreasonably diminishthe Bupply of other riparian owuern, la aprivate nuisance, for which on injunctionwill lie."
The Indication, therefor©, is that Plynnwill be enjoined from diverting tbe Rock-
iy river on PhiUIps's application, unlesstbe city exercises toe option to purchase he-fore work Is begun upon the contract, whichwould be tantamount to tbe city building Vso**n works. The pretense made in tbe sneel-ncatfon of d-legatiog to the contractor thecity's franchise for exercising the right ofeminent domain would not, otherwise, beworth tbe paper on which i' Is writ en.
.Awmning that tbe contractor can In bisown name pr- ceed to condemn the right totake wat-r, the act would be tbat ofa prlvat*'individual taking his neighb >r's property forSte own u«e, a proceeding i ot only unconstltutfonal but intolerable on eqairable grou<.d«.l lr Phillip* will have rendered au Inip-.nantpublic service when be his forced these ques-tions to a judicial conclusion,
Tbe cru«ade for tbe purity ft streams ba»•own that it moht, in the end, re&t with the>urt* to prt-ferve the potable waters of the
State for tbe common benefit: both to main-tain equitable cotitml over them as between[ndivi.iuaJs, and M protect tb» putitio right
rein. This rinht is menaced by selfishil appropriaU-m, whether It be by private
adventures, by municipalities, or by thft>erpet nation of tbe Morris Canal Comj>an>'B' * bo as a water monopoly, after it shalliave reslg ed its original and proper func-
tion of maintaining a navigable highway,with tbo concurrence of the legislature, asprovided in tbe unrighteous bill now pendingat Trenton.

A Pretty ImitrovlRed Panel.A very pretty way to fill up an ugly

I t is necessaryto begin at tlio top of tho Rpaco, at tliorrlezo, if possible, and lay tlio tucks deepenough to hold up photographs. Thosotucks should bo taoked with brass headedtacks to keen them in ploco and tho silkdrawn tightly across tho Bpaco.

But if your guldo were n native bowould tell you that the BO nnd wns madeby a oainpanoro, as thoy call it, althoughto forolgnors it is known as tho anvil bird.
This bird Is a littlo larger than a thrush.Tho plumage is perfectly whito, the eyesaro a polo gray color, and tho naked throatand skin around tho eyos are of a linobright green, whilo its more northerlyrelative is or an go and black, very muohlike our oriole.

On arriving at homethe wife aekod: "Well, wbatwasthe text!'*He requested that the bible be brought,seated himself and, clearing his throat, herepeated: " An injun came dowu from NewHaven and took a live colt by the tall andjerked it out of the halter."

The little Dutchboy who stopped theleak in the dike withhis finger aaved hiscountry from over-whelming destruc-tion. You have readabout him in yourschool readers, howhe was walking alongthe dike when heheard a faint soundof trickling water,and knew at once thata leak had sprung in that great embank-ment which saves Holland from tbe devas-tations of the hungry sea. It was early inthe niffht, and no one was near at hand.The leak was small when he found it, buthe knew that the action of the water wouldenlarge it long- before morning-, and washaway the entire embankment, inundate thecountry and deBtroy his own and thou-sands of homes. So he bravely put hisfinger in the crevasse, and kept it there allthe long niffht through, until help came andthe opening was properly stopped. He hadsaved his country.
Equally insignificant is the entrance ofdisease into the human system. The be*giuniugs of the most terrible ailments areao small they can be easily stopped at thestart. Your health is a dike which keepsout ond stops the inroads of dangerous anddevastating disease. Whenever it breaksdown, no matter how slightly, there Is anopening; for disease to enter. If the open*lag Is not watched, it will grow larger,until the sweep of disease overwhelmsyou, andi health and perhaps life Is de-stroyed forever.
Fortify your health with Dr. Pierce'aGolden Medical Discovery, and you candefy ill-health. You can make your healthHO strong a bulwark that disease cannotfind a crevice through which it can creep.Taken in time, Dr. Pferce's remedies pre-vent Greater and more serious troubles.HundrcdB write daily to Dr. Pierce, tellinghim how these remedies have saved themand made them strong1.

To these Mrs. Pinkham's help isoffered. A letter to her at Lynn,Mass., will bring her advice freeof all charge.
Miss NANCIE SHOUE, Florence,Col., writes a letter to Mrs. Pink-ham from which we quote:
•• I had been in poor health for some time, my troubles hav-ing been brought on by standing, so my physician said, caus-ing serioos womb trouble. I had to give up my work. I wasjust a bundle of nerves and would have fainting spells atmonthly periods. I doctored and took various medicines, but
got no relief, and when, I wrote to youI could not walk more than four blocksat a time. I followed your advice, tak-ing Lydia E. Pinkhain's Blood Purifier
\ in connection with the Vegetable Com-! pound and began to gain in strength,from the first. I ara getting to be a
. stranger to pain and I owe it all to your*""dicine. There is none equal to it,
for I have tried many others be-j fore using yours. Words cannotj be said too strong in praise of it."
Miss POLLY FRAME, Meade,JKan., writes:
"PEAR MRS. PINKHAM—I feel itI my duty to write you in regard toJ what your medicine has done for
. me, I cannot praise itenough. Since my girlhoodI had been troubled with ir-
regular and painfulperiods and for nearlyfive years had suffered;with falling of thewomb, and whites. Alsohad ovarian trouble, the
left ovary being so swollen and sore that I could not movewithout pain. Now, thanks to your wonderful medicine, thattired feeling is all gone, and I am healthy and strong."

At the mwjtiug <>» Wednesduy «f the Mor-ris County hoard of Chosen FreehoWernDirector Luru ami Freeholders Dalrympleand Poet urged with a good deal of earnest-ness the need of greater economy iu the con-duct of county affair*, without, apparently,making inueb of an impression on a majorityof their fellow members of the Iward. Free-holder Post even expressed the fear that thehoard might ba indicted for its plain violationof a Btate law which in express terms pro-hibits the expenditure of a greater sumthan ia appropriated iu the annual budget,and Freeholder Milled^*, who sut in thewat next to Mr. Post, and who is Chair-man of the Finance Committee of theboard, remained as unconcerned as if he hadno responsibility in the matter a t all. Andyet the board in treading on dangerousground. While the annual report of theFinance Committee was made to uhow onapparent cash balance of |2,SU8.1ii, the yeariu reality closed with a deficit of upwarda of$25,000, bills to that amount having beenwithhold until the beginning of the new fiscalyear. The Essex County Board of Freehold-ers somehow manages better. The reportsubmitted by the Chairman of the FinanceCommittee of that board at the annual meet-ing on Wednesday shows a cash balance onband of $1U,O35.1HI. The Essex countyboard has besides a sinking fund amountingto 923,000.84.
IN the report of the proceedings of theboard In another 'column will be found aresolution providing for the publication ofthe quarterly report in pamphlet form, in-stead of in the newspapers of the county asheretofore. The ERA would he moreinclined to believe that this newdeparture is in the Interest of economy ifthe appropriation in the budget for adver-tising and printing were not the same as itwas last year. Inasmuch as $2,500 has beenappropriated for advertising and printingthe suspicion is not far fetched that it is theIntention to use the money saved on printingto eke out other appropriations, the F. &, O.appropriation quite likely. The foregoing isnot to be taken as a reflection on FreeholderCarter, who is chairman of the Committeeon Printing and Advertising. We know himto be above petty trickery.
With all due respect to Director Lutn, wewould suggest that he made a bad beginningwhen he appointed a fourth member on theRockaway Township Bridge Committee,merely because Freeholder Hoagland saidthat ho would like to have Freeholder Mil-ledge on his committee. As a result of hiscomplaisance i t will cost just two dollarsmore for every bridge inspection in Rocka-woy township than in the half score othertownships whose bridge committees consist

Mr. VanWinkle, who was the only otheroutgoing member, also briefly expressed histhanks for the uniform courtesy which hadbeen extended to him and took occasion alsoto commend his successor, Freeholder-electSyduey Collins, to the board.
Freeholder Dalrymple moved a vote ofthanks to the outgoing members aud Free-holder Hoagland moved a vote of thanks totue Director, Clerk, Engineer and Counsel,both of which motions were adopted, where-upon the board adjourned sine die,

" T h e Proof ot t he Pnddinsr.**Manager Oscar Peer, of. the Dover District
if the Colonial Life Insurance Company ofAmerica, has ever since his first connectionwith that company maintained that the Col-onial Issued more liberal industrial Insurancepolicies than any other industrial insurancecompany in the State of New Jersey, if notin the United States. Mindful of the sayinghat the proof of tho pudding is the eating
thereof, Manager Peer relates the followingstory, saying It Is only one of the many inci-dents which go to prove the liberal plan onwhich the industrial polfcy of the ColonialLife Insurance Company is patterned :
The late Luther J . Lawrence, wbo livednear Dover, on tho back road to Franklin,was some seven months ago Induced by an
t of the Colonial Life Insurance Com-pany to take oat a life insurance policy, al-though he woa in his fifty-first year. LastSaturday Mr. Lawrence died. He bad paidin only $2.80 to the company, aud here is tbepoint on which the manager of the DoverDistrict lays tbe greatest stress: Instead ofeceivinR only one-half of tho face value ofhe policy, as would have been the case in
any other industrial insurance company Inthe State, the heirs of the deceased were bothsurprised and pleased to find that tho Col-onial, following its usual custom, allowedthem the full face value of the policy—$08,10,
lthough only $2.80 had been paid.Manager Peer Is justly proua of the com-
pany ho represents and Its methods of doingbusiness, and can always quote some such in-ident as the above when arguing in favor ofho Colonial's industrial policy. The Colonial
bos been In business less than two years, butit baa already outstripped many, If not all,of its competitors In tbo Industrial lino.

The Professional Sate Opener.When Wormwood Scrubs prison was be-
ing built, says Major Griffiths In "MyStories of Police and Crime," I had anopportunity to see with my own eyes whata practiced burglar may do with a safe,using ordinary weapons. I had handedmy keys to the gatekeeper for consign-ment to tho prison safe, and he, throughsome mischance, hampered tho look andoould not opon tho safe,
. It is a strict rule that no ono can loaveprison until tho keys aro collected andsafely put away. At last In despair Iturned to tho chief warder and naked,"Havo wo any especially good cmcksmanIn custody?'* "ThoreisK., sir," ho re-plied promptly, "one of tho most notedhouBGureakors in London; doing 15 yours.Ho is employed just now in tho carpenter'sshop." Tho man was fetched. Ho wastall, dnrk huired, rather good looking, aclean, industrious, well buhnynl prisoner.He brought with him his bag of tools,and showing1 him tho safo I asked himquietly If he thought ho could opon it.
•'Do you mean it, sir?" ho iiBkcd. in hieturn, fuid when I assured him I was Inearnest ho attacked tho eato with ono ofhis tools. In less than throe minutes thodoor swung opon—tho lock had been qultoconquered. It was a urst class Eafo too.

the sewing crow was tho mtiRt tun using,It was a glQBgy black blrO abuut tho sizeof a thrush, with palo ycllovJtnil mid wingfeathers and ourimis light 1)1 uu vyoa wir,hVery blue rime. It was brought fromVenezuela, and ita local Spanish namemeans "the ricebird," but it uuvur upo-daily offeotod ricoas food, preferring fruitand meal worms. 1 hud several of fchesocrows, but one was particularly tame undramblod about tho house staking for sow-ing materials, I found it onco or twiceInside a large workbug full of cruwols,whero it hud gone In search of gay tuimdswith which U used to decorate tho wlrowalls of an empty cage kept in tho verandaoutside my own sitting room. The ex-traordinary patience and Ingenuity of thatbird In passing the wool through thomeshes of the wire can hurdly bo describ-ed. 1 suppose it was a reminiscence ofnest- building, beonuBo it always workedharder in the springtime.
It had a great friend In a lltfc]» "mo-rlche," black and yellow also, but of amore Blender build and with a very sweetwhistle.

Now tho "morloho" know bet-tor than to touch tbo crow's work, thoughbe often appeared to carefully examine it.
One day tho crow must; havo persuadedtbo"morlohti" to help him to roll anddrug a reel of oonrso whito cotton from thooorrldorof the workroom, across the floorof my Bitting room, into the veranda. 1saw thorn doing this mono than once andhod unintentionally interfered with thecrow's plans by picking up tho real nnd re-torn Ing it to tho niald'B workbaskct.However, ono afternoon tho crow gut ridof me entirely, and on my return from nlong expedition 1 found both the orow and"xnorlche" just going to roost in tboempty cage, whloh was really only keptthere for thorn to play In. 1 then percolv-ed what the reel of cotton, which wasagain lying on the veranda floor, had been
-anted for.The orow htd Hewed a straw armchair
with an open patterned Beat securely to(he cage by nine vovy long strands andwas sleepily contemplating the work withgreat satisfaction. It was quite cosy tosee how It had managed, onoo a start wasmuds with the cotton, bub it must haveentailed a great denl of flying In and outwith the end of tho cotton, for It had notbeen broken off. Of course 1 loft tbo chair

STEVENS' ST0EY.Thoro was only one real trouble vlth
lut> Stevens, which was that bo had atory to tell. And indeed this would haveieon all welt enough it he could ever haveispoaed of It—that Is, if he could everlave told It. But fate must hove modi-
I a revenge upon Stevena. She mustavo decreed that he should never flntahIs rooltul. Tho fact is ho was slow. HeU3 too exact, and too much exactness is
i fatal dist-Hso— a consumption wliuu Itfastens itself upon art. We may praise anexact mau for bis pains, but we deplorehis tedkmsness.
A reporter told me he would get Ste-ins1 story, givo him all the timo ho want-
ed and print tho thing In a Monday morn-Ing edition of his paper, that being theday whon there was room for almost anything, and he made an appointment withhim. But Stevens got drunk before heiod entered upon his home stretch, and the•eporter found ho held a toilless kitewhirling in the air,
It was a California story, relating tothe early days of that wonderful country,and X have since discovered that life is'ull of unfinished California stories. Ilon't know why a man can't finish a CallJornla story. He can flniBh. an Arkansasitory or a Texas story, but there Is some-:hing the matter with a California story,Stevens hod lived a long timo In the town.?ho people woro peaceable and industrious,
id for years tbey wcro disposed to listenhis story; thny had given him every
ipportunity a man could desire; they hadiven encouraged him, but ho always fell
down. No ono charged the fault to him—that 1B, directly—but every one, felt thata mati, regardless of circumstances, shouldbe to some extent tho master of hla own9tory. It seemed, though, that Stevensnever could bo tbe master of his narra-Ivo, and It became a joke throughout aloinmunity marked for Its whimsical loveif humor. Whenever an important stran-ger came to town it was regarded as wit tontroduce him to Stevens and ask for thostory. Although this was often repeated)Stevens cover scorned to appreciate thefoot that he was the object of rltiloule.Bow often have I seen him "wallop" thetobacco about in his mouth with pleasureit the thought that his tlmo had come at
and how familiar were his Introduc-tory words:
"It may not be of vital Interest, you un-derstand—but you never can tell what avital interest Is till you have heard it, for
story is not a story till it's told—but it'as in 1810. Now of course there are
thousands of men In this community whomve grown up eiaco thon certainly, for asyou can well BOO I am no youngster, andthey, may and indued they have not anypatience with things that took plnoe wayback thero, bub we haven't the time totake them into account. I have begun to;auge a man's intelligence—surely a
young man's—by tho way ho listens tosomething told by older men, "Well"—
"But are you certain, Bob, It was In1849r" someone at this point invariablywould ask. Here a look of trouble wouldcome Into tho narrator's eyes.
"Why, of course I know wnat. year It/aa. I havo havo all my life made It a
[Mint never to toll' a thing that hasn'tbeen thoroughly verified in my own mind.''
"Sue you know a man is likely to bemlBtaken."
"Oh, I know that us well as anybody)and no one could be more careful than Iam, because I—I wouldn't mislead a uhildif Z could avoid 16."
"Tho misleading of a child ia » graveroffense ill tho sight of the Lord than, themisleading of a man," an authority onmorals and early frosts would here romork.
"That's true," Stevens would declare."I know it, and whonover I talk to
nhlldren I always bear that fact in mind.
"But your story. Bob? We all want tohear i t / -
Yes; all right. I suppose many of yonolder mon remember old LeatherheadDftWBon. Lived out here on tho old mili-tary rood. Ho"—
"la he theman whoowuedthetwoliead-ed aalti"
It was a two headed pig."No; it was a calf.11
'Well, now, hold on. I ought to know,'or ho and I were"—
"I'll bet you $10 It was a calf."On several occnslona the money waa put
up, but It could never be settled, though•Steven B always maintained, and some-times with violence, that the freak was apig, Onco he called Sam Cabncy a liar,and any one who knows the Dabney fam-ily can well iroiigine what tho resultmight havo been bad not some one sug-gested a drink all around.
As Stavons hocameolder ho become mor-bid. Onco he armed himself and sworesoino ouo In that town must hear tho endof tho Btory. The mayor, on dry a fellowas ever tilted a jug, called for volunteers,and one man came forward, or ratherwas pUBhod forward. Ho was turned overto Stevens, and the othors withdrew. Thestory had proceeded, as was said, past thefifth troe, through tho hobble and Intothe lelsuroly walk when Stevem discov-ered that the man was a deaf mute. Hesued tho mayor, hut justice in that com-munlty was slow, and tho caso never cameto trial. In a whimsical community thesloop of tho law IB sound, and often Justicesits nodding in the lazy sunlight.
Stevens was an expert accountant, butho was usually out of employment. It issingular that tbe most compotont ninn In» whimsical community is tho first to losehis job and the lust to regain it. I don'tunderstand why this fact has not beentrwntcd by tho political economist. Per-haps ho will tako it up whon it becomesm»ro obvious ami less lnterentlng. Woll,the proprietor of a largo hardware estab-lishment offered Stevens the position ofbookkeeper. Tho post was accepted.Stevens worked hard, and out of this ap-plication of tho mind Boomed to grow arr«otmitlon of tho fact that ho had boon
