A STREET CAR BLOCK. ONE OF THE EXPERIENCES OF LIFE IN NEW YORK CITY. What; a Waiting Pwwcnger Saw from the Car Wimlow —The Imperturbable Man with the Turkey —A Hard Working, CheerleKH World —Moving On. The car has stuck in Greenwich street. Wo are aground The indications are not favorable for soon getting off The driver gets off the platform to look ahead. So does the conductor When these worthies leave their posts l>e sure you are to re main in statu quo for some time. We take an observation. The track is blocked for a quarter of a mile ahead. The drivers immediately ahead are off their perches also. Another bad sign. We commend our souls to patience The more uneasy passengers gaze through the front car door window. There are ten of us. A woman and a child, a countryman, a stout man with a turkey tied in a paper bag. a girl n:id a stout Irishman. The rest are simply of tho human species, with nothing particular to recommend them. The driver mounts the platform. The car moves. We are off. The block is over. Hope rises. The car moves six inches And stops dismally. .Ilopb fails. Wo move r.o more. Curts, wagons and carriages rattle, roar and ruckle over the stones on either side of us, one lino up, the other line down. By us are passing the manufactures of New York, the pro duce of the country and the product of other lands Down a load of sewing machines incased in wooden frames. Up a load of coal. Down a load of new fur nituro cased in bagging. Up a load of apples. Down a load of flour. Ahead of us in the block a wagon piled high with dry goods boxes. Up a load of long oars. Down, potatoes. Up, turnips. Then a load of beef quarters. Up a piano. Li ORE REVIVES. The woman with tho child looks at her watch. She fears losing boat or train. Tho man with the turkey is of all the most resigned. His face is vacancy. Time to him seems of no object. He is framed to v/ait. A policeman bobs hither and yon. growling, cursing, ordering. But the block is immovable. Ah! We move. We are off. Hope re vives We fear it is too good to be true. It is. We have moved half a block. The block resumes Drivers going up and down bandy words with our driver. Peo ple stop on the curb and gaze stupidly at us. We get even and gaze stupidly at them. Then we read all the advertise ments in the car. A load of iron bangs and clangs past. Then a load of hay. Then one of cotton. The woman and the child get out. The man with the turkey is immovable. Is be, like the rest of us, consumed with anxiety and impatience, or has lie the power of projecting his mind into some region of thought tliat lie can forget this irksome flelay? We count four dry goods boxes on the wagon ahead, on them a red seat and on that a blanket. The conductor's overcoat has but three buttons upon it. It should have four. It is a very ragged coat- The pocket3 are sagged down. There is an endless shouting outside and cries of “Get up! Get up I” The stout Irishman can wait no longer. Ke leaves us. Farewell! We shall never meet again. The man with the turkey gazes on and on into futurity, j. MOVING ON. Again we move. Wo get ahead a whole block. The scene changes. It is refresh ing even tp see anew set of dingy store fronts and signs. And ho end of carts. Going and coming, rattling and rumbling, bringing things from the north and send ing them south, bringing things from the south and sending them north, all driven by these hard, grimy men, who seem to have no other thought in the world save to get somewhere with a load and get back again. A hard working, grimy, cheerless world it is all about here. Again we move. We are not encour aged. We have now too often been dis appointed. But we keep ou moving. Boast not thyself, it is but momentary. But we keep on moving. No matter. Wo shall stop —there. We move slower. We feel the car stopping. But it does not stop. But we shall stop. But we do not stop. An atom of hope kindles in our dejected souls. We try to keep it down, to smother it. It will not stay smothered. We are still moving. We have so long been in a stationary, helpless state that we have ceased to regard the car as cap able of motion. Yet wo do move. The driver’s back looks as if he Intended to drive farther yet. Even the driver’s back assiimes a sort of go it expression when he sees no obstacle ahead and his hand is off that discouraging brake. We have actually moved four blocks without a stop. Tho man with the turkey Is as vacant as ever. It matters little to him. We keep on moving. The block is over. Only half an hour’s delay.—Prentice Mill ford iu New York Star. Studying Their (hrn City. The time lias gone by when a Parisian was ashamed to carry a “Baedeker” under his arm, and to explore the wonders of the Louvre, the Luxembourg, the Gobelins or the Musee-Carna valet. M. Charles Gamier arid the society of Amis des Monu ments Parisiens, which he founded about two years age, have changed all that. Before M. Gamier and the ladies and gentlemen with him took to periodical wandering all over medieval and artistic parts of Paris there were thousands of old inhabitants who had never seen the in side of many of the metropolitan monu ments and places of historic interest in their lives. They have visited the En gardine or the Tyrol for scenery, cursorily inspected the frescoes and paintings of the Pitti or the Vatican to improve their taste, but they would not be seen for worlds lounging about the corridors of the Louvre or penetrating the artistic or ar cadian recesses of Versailles. At the present time, owing to the fashion that has been set by the “Amis des Monuments,” it is no uncommon thing to see a genuine Parisian wrapped in contemplation of “La Bello Jardiniere” at the Louvre, or wandering enthusias tically, like a foreign dilettante, through the hall of mirrors at Versailles. As to the environs of Paris, such as Marly, Montmorency or St. Germain, they are rendered more fashionable than ever by the patronage of the opulent people who drive thitherward in mail coaches every afternoon for dinner. —Paris Cor.

WANDERING THROUGH PASSAGES UNDERGROUND. Deacent in the Passenger Shaft —Gloomy Passages and Narrow Tunnels —Mules as a Motive Power —The Miner ami His Drill—The Blast. The entrance to nearly all mines disap points preconceived notions. One cannot say exactly what he expected, but he cer tainly expected something different from the reality Here, for instance, there was n<> indication of the existence of the mine save in the presence of tho breakers and the huge pile of culm. At a short dis tance from the breaker was a little shed about ten feet square, and yawning in this was tho mouth of the passenger shaft. The shaft, rip which are hoisted the the cars loaded with coal, opens directly into the breaker. As wo gathered about the passenger shaft tho cai* was hoisted several times, bringing up a number of miners and laborers, and all looked like imps from th > infernal regions. Their bodies and clothing were black as jet from smoko and coal dust, and the only white ono could see about them was tho whites of their eyes In their caps wero extin guished* torches, which still gave out a black and sullen smoke. Men we found them, talking freely of their lives and rather enjoying the curiosity they in spired. Their appearance, and tho mouth of that black shaft leading down a sheer 800 feet into the bowels of the earth, led some of tho party to conclude that they would enjoy a bird’s eye view of Provi dence on tlio surface rather than tempt Providence under ground. So less than forty made the descent. Each of us was given a little torch, and then we gathered about the shaft, The elevator is simply a platform like a freight elevator, with no railing at either side. Above it is a bood tQ keep off tho water constantly dripping down tho shaft from tho seams in the rock. Ten at a time we crowded upon the elevator, the torches flaring up around us and lilt ing our lungs with smoke. The signal was given, and every heart sank a little as the car rushed swiftly down. Perhaps I reveal a woeful ignorance when I say that I expected to see as soon as I stepped from tho car a vast rugged chamber, glittering with distant lights and alive with eager workers. I had read descriptions cf mines and seen pictures of them, and yet this delusion clings to me. But in one instant vanished all these chimeras, and I beheld a narrow tunnel, so low that I involuntarily stooped my head, whether such a proceeding were necessary or not, and darker than mid night. On either side were walls of coal, glittering strangely as tho rays of light fell upon them, and hewn into all sorts of irregular shapes and narrow recesses. But the roof or ceiling seemed as smooth and polished as marble. The vein of coal runs of almost uniform thickness, and the slate above and below forms a com paratively level floor and roof. Along this narrow passage we wand ered, the light from our flickering lamps making the darkness ahead the more im penetrable. At short intervals were cham bers where the coal had been mined more extensively, but between all chambers pillars at least thirty feet in thickness were left to support the tremendous weight of the superincumbent rock. And in the chambers themselves were juists and beams of wood erected for the same purpose. • One douid scarcely realize that all these passageways and chambers were carefully laid out by engineers and sur veyors, and that plans were drawn, mark ing all the turns and divergences as accu rately as the map pf a city. But such was the case, and not a blow of the pickax is struck that is not fore seen, and so two passageways approach each other from opposite directions, and are finally united in one. At intervals are heavy, air tight doors of wood, which serve the purpose of breaking the cur rents of air, give a perfect circulation, and allow the steam fans to exhaust the tire damp that may have accumulated in any chamber, no matter bow far distant. As these were closed behind us they gave a crash like thunder, every sound being magnified by the rocky walls. Finally, when we haa gone hundreds of feet from the shaft, w r e began to sec dim and twinkling lights in the distance, and to hear echoing cries, tho crash of loaded curs rolling along the rail, and the clang of steel on the sullen rocks Mules turn- ish the only motive power, and it is because of their well known uuborn ness that they needed such vockerous di rection that for minutes we would hear shouts and cries that were echoed until they seemed to come from a hundred lungs. Then we would range ourselves close along the wails and up Nvould rum ble and clatter and clash a loaded car, drawn by several straining mules and driven (or rather directed, for no reins were used), by a boy as black us the coal itself, his eyes glittering strangely in the light from tho smoking lamp stuck in Ids hat band. And finally we reached the miners them selves. for all the men wo had previously seen were merely the laborers. Eacn miner had a chamber to himself, and into the walls he was viciously digging his drill. Of course his eyes get accustomed to the semi gloom, but to us it seemed as if he must work solely by the sense of feeling. The miner we surrounded told us that ho was almost ready for a blast. Whilo we waited a car rolled noisily up to a pile of broken coal, and a black and grimy laborer caught up a shovel and sent "the lumps thundering into the car. Before it was filled the miner told us that his charge was ready and bade us go aronnd tho nearest corner. Fifty feet away we were halted, and then came an anxious pause, each one agitated some what, if the truth must be told The?', came a loud and reverberating rear, fol lowed by tho crash of tumbling rock. earth shook beneath our feet, and from the slate roof, a foot above our heads, splinters of rock seemed to fall around us. Perhaps no one really expected the roof to fall and crush us. but tnero was & sigh of relief when the blast was ever. Wo hurried back to the chamber with tho smell of powder in our nostrils A jagged hole was pierced in the coal, and as v.o iooked through the smoke and dust, a blackened and demoniac face appeared at us from its depths. The blast had opened a passage directly through into the adjoining chamber, aud the face was that of the good natured miner on tho other side. The coal that the blast had loosened lav heaped in confusion by tho opening feo shattered had it been by the explosion that it could easily be broken by a pickaxe into size convenient for handling. Nothing then remained but for tho laborer to shovel it all. largo and small lumps and even the dust, into a cur. that was hoisted into the breaker. —“F. W. H. ” in Albany Argus Loi; Cabin Success. What ails the young men? Robert Garrett's father left him a for tune of twenty millions. He was Irom childhood reared in luxury; he received a splendid education with an especial train ing into a thorough knowledge ol rail road management and was exfieeted to succeed his father as a railroad king. Within three years after the responsi bilities which his father’s death threw upon him were assumed, he is reported a broken down man, with mind and health permanently shattered. George Law is another young man left with millions of money, who is re ported among the “wrecks.” His father, bred a stone mason, was of gigantic size and strength, with commensurate brain power, so he became a great contractor, then a railroad king, and left half a dozen millions for his son to dissipate. The young man is a success as a dissi pator. The founders of both of these great es tates were born in tlie most humble waiKs of life, grew strong, mentally ami physically, by simple living and honest labor and developed into financial giants. Their sons were reared in the lap of lux ury and developed into intellectual pig mies. The great men of our country have not, as a rule, come from the elegant mansions of the cities, but from the Log Cabins of the rural districts. Simple ways of living, freedom from dissipation and enervating pleasures, simple reme dies f or disease, effective and which leave no poison in the system, develop brawny, brainy men, who compel the world to recognize their strength and power. The wholesome, old-fashioned Log Cabin remedies are the safest and surest for family use. Our grandmothers knew how to prepare the teas and syrups of roots, herbs and balsams which drive disease out of tho system by natural methods and leave no after ill effects. The most potent of these old-time reine dies were, after long and searching inves tigation, secured by 11. H. Warner, of safe cure fame, and are now put out for the “healing of the nations” in the War ner’s Log Cabin remedies.

Mrs, Thurman at Home. Cincinnati Enquirer. She is of about medium height and build. Her face is unusually handsome for a woman of her years, and what im prints time has left are pleasant ones. Her eyes are blu,e, bright and expressive; her mouth is small with very agreeable lines. She wore a black cashmere gown, plainly made, with basque, skirt and overskirt. A brooch, round in design, fastened the collar about her neck and plain white and black cuffs finished the sleeves. On the third finger of the left hand Mrs. Thurman wore three plain, narrow gold rings. Her hair is one of her greatest charms, and I believe al ways was. In her younger days it was a reddish brown. It is now the whitest silver white, with not one dark thread in it. It looks very soft, is arranged in two little curls that fall artistically over the ears and are held there by black combs. The back hair is twisted and coiled high on the head. The style is most pictur esque and very becoming to 'Mrs. Thur man. She has an easy, unassuming manner and talks freely. “What do you read?” “That depends. If lam very tired I read novels, yes, often trashy novels, and they rest me.
