' A CLOSE OBSERVER.
THE YANKEE DRUMMER'S STRAIGHT
TALK ABOUT EUROPE.
Information Abort London, Pwrln and Ger
many From a Big, Red Haired Man —He
Saya He Kept HJ» Ryes <*R«—»• «on
' Think He Did?
"Greater New York is going to be
bigger than Landon, " remarked the lit
tle man in the cross seat with an air of
wisdom.
“No, siree. it isn’t !" said the trig red
haired man who sat alongside of him as
he dusted an invisible speck from his
®ew coat. "It won’t be a marker to
London I’ve been there.”
“What—to Loudon?"
“Sure, I have It was three years age.
,and 1 know what I’m talking about
“Now, it's a strange fact that there are
-some fellows in our business that'll
travel all around and never see any
thing 1 always keep my eyes open in
dtrange towns, it gives a man things to
talk about and it broadens him. ”
The little man began to eye his com
panion with new interest He pondered
his sage words for a minute and said:
“How'd it happen?"
“Why. it came about just after I left
.you .at St. Louis 1 returned to New
York and brought back with me $(>0,000
worth of orders. That pleased the firm,
1 can cell you. for no one was doing any
business in those days. Our foreign buy
•er was ill and as I was pretty well post
bed on what the trade wanted the firm
to me:
" ’Here, Jcues. you go over to the
vcontineut and do our buying this win
ter. ’ Didigo? Well, doesaduck swim?”
"Where did you go?" asked the little
rman.
“London. Paris and Germ’ny. ”
“Say. what kind of a town is London
’anyway? I’ve always wanted to know. ”
“Well, I’ll tell you on the level. It’s
,* bum. two for a cent place. It’s no
igood. and that’s straight. I’ve been
there. Don t you let anybody fool you
about it. You can read all of this jubi
lee stuff' you want, and if any one tells
Loudon is any good you just tell
him that Jones said it was on the bum. ”
The little man’s face brightened up,
■evidently from the delight of getting
statements first hand, and,
iwith the air of a man who wanted to
'improve each shining hour and add to
Ihis stock of knowledge, he said :
"Tell me about London. Is it any
thing like New York?”
"Not a bit. 1 know all about the
town. It’s 2d years behind the times,
ilt’s like New York was before the war.
Why, honest, now, there are whole
jrows of houses that look like they were
'falling down. The streets are dirty and
'crooked, and all houses are built flush
-twith the street. 1 couldn’t do any busi
iness there at all. They are a saving
lot, those English."
"Did you see any fine buildings?"
“Not one, except a church or two.
■Now what I’m telling you is honest.
'There isn’t a building in the whole
town worth seeing, and if there was
you couldn’t see it halt the time. It’s a
dirty, foggy place and not fit to live in.
It’s an old'apple woman of a town. Ev
erybody in Loudon drinks ale or gin.
I’m telling you straight, it’s ou the
jbum "
“Paris is bigger, isn’t it?"
W "Well—er —no. Not exactly bigger.
(London is a whaling big place and
(don\ you make any mistake. I rode
'right straight ahead one day from 7 in
‘the morning until 2 in the afternoon,
and 1 was in London all the time. Par
is is different. 1 got some great bar
gains there. "
, " Did you take your wife with you to
1 Paris?"
L “No; she staid in New York because
■I was going on business. 1 can tell you
jail about Paris, and you can rely on it,
; 'for I’ve been there “
The little man’s eyes brightened in
anticipation, and he said:
“Tell me all about it—everything. ”
“Paris," said the big man in the
tone of a platform orator, “is all right,
and you can say that 1 said so You
■can live there and see the town on 16
a day—that is $2 —good living

Consumption
Will SCOTTS EMULSION
cure consumption? Yes and
no. Will it cure every case ?
No. What cases will it cure
then ? Those in their earlier
stages, especially in young
people. We make no exag
gerated claims, but we have
positive evidence that the
early use of
Scott’s Emulsion
of Cod-liver oil with Hypo
phosphites of Lime and Soda
in these cases results in a
positive cure to a large num
ber. In advanced cases, how
ever, where a cure is impossi
ble, this well-known remedy
should be relied upon to pro
long life surprisingly.

that's nonseuse nhatt you’ve read. There
were four of us <ui the party, aad when
we started out we hired an interpreter

interpreter the grand bounce and we

that the firm wanted to get rid of. ”
"Dad you see any interesting build
ings or places?’'
"Saw the whole outfit, and it’s no
great shakes. The Pans boulevards are
pretty fine, though. ”
The little man looked disappointed
at his friend’s meagerness of detail
Then he remembered Germany, and he
asked his friend what he had seen there.
"Now you are getting right into my
stamping ground," said the big man.
"Germany beats them all. 1 went to
Berlin, and, say, 1 bought a line of sat
inets there that netted the firm $70,000
Now, what do you think of that? Was
not that a good stroke? Oh, 1 tell you
Germany is my stamping ground!”
“What interested you there?”
“Why. I saw everything, and how
the Germans drink beer! If 1 hadn’t
been afraid that those satinets would go
out of fashion, I'd have made a bigger
stroke ou them. Now, don’t you let any
one fool you about those places. Just
come to me and I’ll put you straight. I
tell you 1 believe in traveling with my

if you don’t learn something? I'll be out

NEW SHINGLES AT LAST.
The Old Ones Were Pnt on Mrs. Skinner’s
House One Hundred Years Ago.
Mrs. Mary Skinner, who lives in
Wayne county, Pa., across the Dela
ware river from Cochecton, N. Y., re
cently had her house shingled and re
paired. There would be nothing strange
about this but for the fact that this is
the first time'the house has been re
paired or reshingled since 1796, when
the dwelling was built. It is known in
the Skinner family as the “new house, ”
because it took the place of the old
house which was built in 1765 and
was burned by the Indians in 1777.
The old bam is still standing though.
It was built in 1777 and needs no re
pairs
The locality where these buildings
stand was one of the first places where
white people settled in the Delaware
valley, the Skinner family having gone
thither in 1754 Daniel Skinner, the
pioneer of the family, was an old sailor.
The hills and valleys hereabout were
covered with dense forests of pine.
Daniel Skinner knew the value of the
timber for ship spars, and he thought
he could find a profitable market for it
at Philadelphia, but Philadelphia was
250 miles away, with no means of com
munication but a river, the character
of whose channel was then unknown to
any living white person. Daniel Skin
ner made a raft of pine tree stems and
with a hired man started down the river
with it m the spring of 1765. He started
the raft on a raging flood and landed it
safely at Philadelphia in 48 hours. He
sold the timber for <2O a stick. There
were 20 of them in the raft Such pine
Sticks would be cheap at $ 150 apiece to
day That was the beginning of rafting
on the Delaware Skinner and his com
panion made the journey from Phila
delphia home on foot, more than 200
miles being through an unbroken wil
derness. They were two weeks on the
way The Skinner estate has never been
in possession of any one other than a
descendant of the pioneer.—New York

THE HOME TRIBUNE, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER J 4. 1»97.
BOTH LEAPED TO DEATH.
Two Men Jninped Prom a Bridge aa a
Teal ot Their Bravery.
The most Ihrilliug double tragedy in
the, history ot Minnesota occurred re
ceutly in St Paul, at the high bridge
over the Mississippi At that hour the
crowd of people on the bridge was hor
rified to see a mau s form shoot down
from the rail on the east side of the
structure Before the rapidly descend
ing figure reached the water, over 200
feet away, another man mounted the
rail and swung off feet first. The bodies
struck the water not five feet apart
They came up once each, but sauk from
view aud were no- doubt washed down
the stream by the current. Boats were
procured at ouce and the river was
dragged for some time, but neither body
was found It was nearly two hours be
fore any trace of the identity of the
men could be obtained. During the
evening it was discovered that they were
two members of the St. Paul Cigar Mak
ers’ union. Henry Bergenkreuger and
Jacob Amos.
At 3 o'clock they sat in a Sixth street
restaurant While there they got into
an auimated conversation, becoming so
excited that-' the proprietor stopped to
listen to them. Bergenkreuger insisted
that Amos had no courage, whereupou
the latter said he had quite as much as
the former Each appeared to be willing
to make auy sort of a test of his bravery,
and a suggestion by Bergenkreuger that
they both jump from the high bridge
was eagerly taken up by his partner
They left the restaurant talking about
the big plunge, and the next that was
heard of them was that they had actually
made the leap.—St. Louis Globe-Demo

BATTLESHIP CANOPUS.
New Type of Fighting Machine Among
the Navies of the World.
The launching of the British battle
ship Canopus, recently effected at Ports
mouth, England, is of more than pass
ing interest, for it marks the appear
ance of a new type of fighting machine
among the navies of the world. The
Canopus is one of six similar vessels
How under construction as experiments.
The new Canopus is briefly described
as a modified and improved Majestic.
In length the two are alike, each meas
uring 390 feet, but the Canopus dis
places only 13,050 tons to the Majestic’s
14,900 —a considerable difference. The
Canopus is thus naturally narrower and
shallower than the Majestic, being only
74 instead of 75 feet wide and drawing
only 26 instead of feet. While
thus smaller than the Majestic, the
Canopus is fitted with more powerful
engines. Her boilers are of the new
Belleville water tube type. Each of her
two screws will be driven by an inde
pendent set of triple expansion engines,
the whole developing 13,500 horsepower
against the Majestic’s 13,000 and driv
ing the vessel at the rate of 185£ knots,
or a full knot faster than the Majestic.
The coal bunkers will have a capacity
of 1,900 tons.
The main battery will consist of four
12 inch wire guns, mounted in pairs, in
barbettes. There will also be twelve 6
inch quick firing guns, each in an ar
mored casement, twelve 12 pounders,
six 8 pounders and eight maxims. There
will be five torpedo tubes, four of them
being submerged The armor belt of the
Canopus is only six inches thick. The
heaviest armor is over the bulkheads
and on the barbettes and conning tower,
its maximum thickness being 12 inches.
The protective deck is of nickel steel,
from one and a half to two and a half
inches thick and covered not with wood,
but with linoleum—an improvement
suggested by experience in the battle of
the Yalu.—New York Tribune.
