PUPILS ON THE FARM.
PAYING FOB THE PRIVILEGE OF
WORKING.
Youngsr Sena of English Gentlemen
Learn How to Drive a Plow and a
Bargain.
From the Kent York Tribune.
The murder in Canada recently of an
English lad who had come to America to
learn farming fias directed considerable at
tention to that class of young fellows, who
are more common in the west than they
are here. In some of the northwestern
cities, in fact, like St. Paul, Minneapolis
and Winnipeg, it is an everyday sight to see
a young Britisher land from the train, with
oie eyeglass screwed into tls face (in order
that he may not see more than he can com
prehend, someone has been unkind enough
to say), a corduroy suit of blouse and knick
erbockers, bright yellow leather gaiters but
toned np to the knee, a fore-and-aft cap,
tiro guns that he may shoot ad
the buffalo he expects to find
just outside the town, a dog and
about 500 pounds of baggage. He has come
to learu fanning. He is a gentleman’s son.
accustomed to comparative luxury and ease
all his life. Arrangements have been made
for him by some English firm, of whom
there aro a good many in this business, to
do “chores” for his board, and to pay £IOO
down to “learn farming.” That is, to master
the mysteries of harnessing a hor.-.e, to milk
a cow, to drive a sulky plow, to drive a
seeder, to drive a mover, to drive a har
vester, and possibly to dnvo a bargain. As
soon os ho has mastered the last accomplish
ment, he generally sees that he has been
duped, leaves his teacher, and strikes out
for himself.
The coarse food of the farmer’s table and
the rough society of his hired help, who get
good wages, while ho gets nothing, gener
ally disgusts him, however long before he
reaches the stage of education last men
tioned, and the young man starts for the
nearest town, hoping to find more congen
ial employment. Ho goes to the hotel, and
by the time he has discovered that there is
do demand for any class of unskilled labor,
6ave on the farm, he is in debt to the land
lord, and in a great many cases brings up
in the hotel kitchen as a waiter or dish
washer, or even a stable-boy.
()ne of the peculiar things about this class
of voung fellows is the longing all of them
have to go home again, and their evident
inability to gratify that wish, although
most ot them receive sums of money from
their friends in the old country at regular
intervals. The fact seems to be that they
are not wanted at home. Their parents
seem glad, or at least willing, to have their
boys undergo considerable hardship, with
such dangers to morals and healtn as a
western town may present, rather than to
have them meet the ifievitable evils of
idleness in England. For the prejudice
against any form of trade or business, out
side the professions, is strong there yet, and
many an English gentleman would rather
have his boy washing dishes in America
tliun standing behind a counter in England.
Of course it is not heralded from the house
tops that dear Reginald is washing dishes
America, oh, no, he is “ranching it in the
west.”
“I remember the case of two young Jads,”
said n Dakota lawyer, who
was visiting Now York the othor
day, “fresh from a famous boys’
college in England. What struck me par
ticularly when first I saw them was their
cheerfulness and their boots. They had
heard of the splendid system of chocking
‘luggage,’ as they called it, in this country,
so that when they took the Grand Trunk
railway at Montreal, where they
landed, and bought tickets for Min
neapolis, by way of Chicago, they
took clean shirts out of their ‘boxes,’
put the checks in their pockets, and were
much surprised not to find their trunks at
Minneapolis when they arrived. The cere
mony of customs examination on the border
at Detroit, had escaped their notice. Their
trunks not having been opened for the In
spectors, were lying there still, and it would
take at least a week to get them again, if
indeed they ever came at all. Still the lads
smoked their cigarettes and smiled on every
thing.
“Their boots, too, were amazing. The
boys were short for their ages, 15 and 16,
but the boots would have reached half way
above the knees of the tallest man in the
settlement, and were big in the feat in pro
portion. Walking was difficult in them.
The boys almost seemed to take one step
up into the toes first, and then
puli the rest of the boots along
after them at the second stride. In answer
to questions about the reason for such
roominess, they replied that they had been
led to believe that the cold was so intense
in the northwest that it was customary for
people to wear all the socks they had at one
time. The boots were too big to go in their
trunks, so they had worn them on the road,
expecting to find their shoes in their trunks
when they reached their destination. When
they learned that moccasins wore the only
thing fit to wear in winter they gave the
boots away, though they must have cost sls
a pair. ‘Boots’ wa christened the boys in
discriminately.
“Then they produced their shoes from
their trunks, which had arrived. Splendid
•does they were, but the heels were shod
with great plates of iron, and the soles were
full of brass pegs, with protruding heads as
dig as liens. The shoes must have weighed
five pounds each. ‘Extra hob-nailed,’ the
lads called them, and useful they would be,
uo doubt, on the stony, flinty English
roads and fields, but on the soft loamy
prairie lands of the west, whore you could
not find one stone to throw at a'bird in a
ton-acre lot, they were about as retarding
to locomotion as the suction-boots of those
artists’ who walk on tho ceiling.
‘W ell, they went out to the ‘teacher’
who hid secured them, and I lost sight of
them for a while. One day I came across
such a thin, sorry, disgusted looking little
®aap, sitting on the back steps of a hotel,
tUt I barely recognized him as one of the
ros y, smiling boys I had laughed at a few
®oath, before.
.‘‘‘What’s the matter, old man?’ I said,

.. 'Making tho beds and washing the

AN INDIAN PEDDLER'S LUCK.
A Trinket Beller Put3 Too Much Faith
in a Woman’s Promise to Pay.
The Indian peddler is continually getting
into trouble in Savannah. Notwithstand
ing they are cheated and swindled they
continue to carry on their business. Their
class of customers is for the most part poor
people, and many of them aro disposed to
take advantage of the peddler’s ignorance.
In the majority of cases which the
police have to deal with of this
character women are tho swindlers.
Not long ago two women were
arrested in the southeastern part of the city
upon a charge of seizing articles from the
baskets of two peddlers, and yesterday
another case came before the notice of a
railroad police-can on West Broad street.
A peddler appealed to the officer to arrest a
woman who had cheated him. He said that
ho apld her on Wept Broad street $2 worth
of trinkets with tho understanding that sbo
was to pay him for them yesterday. The
woman refused to pay him’ and would not
allow him to take the articlos back. The
officer accompanied tho peddler to where
the woman was. As soon as she
saw the officer sho ran into
her room. The policeman asked
her if she bad purchased anything from the
peddler. She said that she never saw tile
the man before. The peddler produced a
piece of paper which he said tho woman
gave him, and upon it was written tho
name of Mrs. Thompson, No. 300 West
Bro id street. The officer asked the woman
if her name was Thompson and she replied
no. The officer noticed that her nutnbir
was not 300 and he told the peddler that he
was certainly mistaken. The Indian re
plied, shaking his head and gesticulating
wildly:
“Dis de strate, dis de ’ouse and dis de
woman.”
The officer told him if he
could prove that tho woman had taken the
articles to go and take out a warrant. The
officer went to the next house and found out
what the woman’s real name was aud in
structed the peddler how to proceed. The
woman peeped through the blinds and
heard it all, and before tho peddler liad got
away she beckoned him to come back and
she returned him the articles she had
bought.
BAIL AND CROSSTIE.
Work will commence this week on the
railroad from GrGvetown to Lincolnton.
The gross earnings of eightv-seven roads
for the second week of April "were $6,146,-

roads the third week of April earned 13,244,-

Robert E. Pettitt, general superintendent
of tiie Pennsylvania railroad, has tendered
his resignation, to take effect June 1. Mr.
Pettitt intends to travel for several years
through China, Japan, India and Russia.
The lowa coupler law provides that after
Jan. 1, 1893, all iooemotives operated in that
Btate shall be equipped with an automatic
or power brake, and that after Jan. 1, 1895,
nil cars shall be equipped with a safety auto
matic coupler.
W. I). Thomas has resigned the position
of assistant purchasing agent of the Central
railroad, aud hts place has been filled by R.
T. Pace of Montgomery. Mr. Thomas has
been a long time v ith the Central, and was
one of its most popular employes. He was
thoroughly posted iu the department from
which he resigned. He wv.s a favorite
among bis fellow employes, who regrotte i
to see him leave. It is understood that he
will go into business for himself.
A telegraph station will bo established Ia
a few days by tho Central railroad at tho
one mile post, where trains going from the
wharf here may receive tneir orders. A
good many trains run out from the wharf
now, and it is inconvenient for thorn to get
orders from the main offices of the Central
without considerable delay. No trains ex
cept those running out from the wharf will
get orders from the now station.
Trains coming into the city will get orders
there on special occasions. Trains going
out from the yards precure orders from the
main offices.
A director of the Richmond and West
Point Terminal company is quoted in New
York as saying: “While the time may not
bo ripe for any immediate advance in ei her
the common or preferred stock, things are
shaping themselves that way. We have
about cleaned up all old matters, and we
aro now considering the proposition which
shall put at the back of the collateral bonds
that which will take care of our floating
debt. It will be recalled that at tho time
we purchased tho Georgia Central railroad
company, which took something liki
$4,000,000, the money was subscribed by tue
directors of the company, and negotiations
are now on ioit looking to the wiping oat
of this debt, after which quite a little spurt
may be looked for in the various securities
of our company.”
Damaged Tea for Fuel.
From the Chicago Tribune.
There is but one house in the city, or, in
fact, in the country, that makes a business
of rehabilitating the salvage of great fires,
and as that house takos care of the salvage
of any aud all kinds from fourteen differ
ent states, something of the scale upon
which it is conducted can be imagined. As,
of course, all the goods saved from the
flames are badly injured by water, they
must all be subjected to a drying process.
Flour is very little injured by water, as a
paste forms upon the outer surface which
preserves the flour within from damage;
therefore it is simply neeossary to remove
the staves of the barrel, scrape ofl the outer
paste from the flour and place it in a large
biD, from whiob it is sifted through an im
mense sieve aud rewoighed and barreled.
Tea preserves itself in some what the same
way. In reference to a quantity of tea
saved from tho burning of a tea warehouse
some months ago, I was told that afier the
salvage, which aggregated 1,200,000 pouuds,
had been dried and was ready lor reboxiDg,
it was fouud by a chemical analysis to be
unfit for food on account of the river water
with which it had l eon saturated. Although
to all appearnces It was ns good tea as one
ordinarily buys, and there was nothing
unusual in its taste, being unfit for food it
could neither be sold nor given away. What
was to be done l Asa last resort it was
decided to feed the furnace with it, and
since the second week in September the
entire building (five stories) has been heated
with tea for fuel.

The Boston Herald (National League

Herald says: “The Brooklyn Club has won
golden praise from all who saw it play on
account of the excellence of its organiza
tion, the fine exhibitions of ball playing
that it has given patrous, and, not least, for
the exemplary conduct of its players. No
nine ever visited this city in which thejlis
cipline was so excellent, and there was so
much ambition to play good ball. Tho club
is sure to win its way into the hearts of the
Brooklynites.”
