BILL NYE.
H Visit* Toney Inland and Meet* a Man
with a Itandana.
From the New York World.
Coney Island is provided with delight
ful music this year. A handsome hall,
with comfortable seats, and within sound
of the ever low spirited and complaining
sea, is filled by those who come to hear
the Metropolitan opera house orchestra,
under the leadership of the handsome
and fluent Ilerr Seidl. Herr Seidl does
not play any instrument himself, but
makes the gestures and punctuates the
music*. He also shows the piccolo where
to put in the piano and points out to
the tubas where it would be a good idea
to stock in the fortissimo. Music is his
heart’s delight. He would ra*ther stand
them and listen, it seemed to me, and kill
mosquitoes with his pointer, than to
play himself.
In theseat ahead of me sat a plain man
with gray hair and toil-hardened hands.
Ever and anon he wiped the honest
sweat from his brow, and then, plunging
a full-blown nose into his red bandana,
he sounded a tocsin which would natur
ally make an alto horn go and dispose
of itself at a sacrifice.
“You are an Ohio man, doubtless, I
said to him in a bantering tone.
“Why so?”
“Well, you seem to have the true Thur
man snort.”
“No. 1 ain’t from Ohio. I’m from New
Hampshire. I carried a bandana before
the war. Politics don’t have nawthin
to do with it. I’ve always believed that
“Satan trembles when he sees
The old bandana on It* sneeze. ’*
“I suppose that is often in your case
taken for a campaign badge.”
“Yep. -Badge? I should say so. If
I’ve been ast to liekah-up to-day once,
I’ll bet I’ve been ast fawty times. They
say the republican party, but so far, it
strikes me that the democrats are a good
deal freer with their lickah than the re
bublicans ah.”
We got pretty well acquainted during
the evening, and finally rode back to
New York together. Sitting below,
where we could smoke together and feel
the salt spray on our polished domes of
thought, the old gentleman said:
“It’s curis how folks always wants to
go summers else to have fun. Dukes and
one thing another comes to this country
to take a vacation, and when we get
enough means on hand w*e go over
amongst the gaudy trappin’s of the effect
moniekeys, as the feller says, and catch
Roman malaria or break our weeks skim
wiin' the Alps, when we’ve got a blamed
sight better meawntins right here.
“Now right at the present minnit,
while I’m here aboad o’ this bo’t, thous
ands o’ you New Y'awkahs are payin’ two
prices for the privilege of livin’ up in my
neighborhood. When we git our havin’
done in my place we like to break loose
and come down to New York. Here,
land sakes, you can go in fawtv different
directions, and have sea aih and loggah
beeah, and the Lawd knows what else,
and all poot.v reasonable, tew. I come
down heab most every summah after the
hay is in and the cawn and beans don’t
need but a little tendin,’ and I get a
room pooty cheap, for the blame town is
almost empty, anvbow, then I kind of
browse around and skin out every day
on a little one-boss picnic up the river or
out to this island or the bay, or fishin’
or crabhin’, or sunthin’ or other every
day for two or three weeks. Then I go
back and tell about it.
“That’s the way everybody does.
They want a change, I s’pose. Then
their own home seems a blamed sight
better to them when they get back. It’s
poot.v tough on folks, when they’ve got
to stay at home all the time, man or
woman. A fellow actually gets to hate
the wall paper, and he hates the old fur
niture, and gets tired of lookin’ at the
pictures of Washington about to become
the father of his country, and all the
other pictures get to look measly, and
the everlastin’ flowers in the settin’ room
begin to look like delusions.
“Then’s the time to skin out and tend
the country fair down to Coney Island.
Folks want a change and they ort to
Jiev it. We had a woman up in our sec
tion that pizened herself right in the dead
o’ hayin’. Left five little folks, and the
oldest wasn’t but five years old. Her
husband was away from home a good
deal, changing pulpits and one thing or
another, but she wrote a letter and left
it on the burow then went on to state
that whilst there was probly no place
like home, and n doubt she ort to be
contented, she had got wore out with the
wall paper, and the hair-cloth chairs jest
made her gag. and so while she was
doing wrong to pizen herself and she
knew it, and that they’d probly hev to
hire help in the house now, she had
thought for a long time that the smell of
fried pork and warm dishwater was
warpin’ her mind. So before she had
went crazy and killed several of the chil
dren and mutilated the neighbors, and
bit the old man, she had decided to take
advantage of a lucid interval ami light
out in search of a change.
“That ain't her exact language, of
course, but that is the main idea and the
thought germ, as a talented man would
call it. Her husband’s folks read the
letter and claimed she’d already got to
wandering in her mind before she wrote
it, but the neighbors got together and
voted that it was infested more or less
all the way through with thought germs,
as you would rail’em, and they had it
printed in a country paper, and since
that our wimmen folks up that way git
out more.”
Just then the boat bumped against the
iron pier at New \ork, and we shook
hands and separated,* each one striving
to add his share to the general riot
which takes place on a crowded boat
when she lands at the dock.

How Doctor* Conquer Death.
Doctor Walter K. Harrmond says
“After a loDg experience I haue come to
the conclusion that two-thirds of a 1
coughs, pneumonia and conscption, might
be avoided if Acker’s English Cough
Remedy were only carefully used in
time.” This wonderful Remedy is sold

Truth* Well Spoken.
That we are living at too great an ex
pense to meet our honest obligations, is
a fact patent to any casual observer. At
our present speed of living, to keep up
appearances with our neighbors, it takes
a sizable income to satisfy the wants of
even a small family—spring suits for the
boys and spring bonnets; handsome
dresses and ribbons for tire girls.
Nor can we lay all the blame of extrav
agant living on the boys and girls, for
besides parents are to blame for yielding
to such extravagance on their children,,
many of them dress beyond their means
and allow their creditors to suffer. How
many men strut in fine clothes, when if
they could not have swindled the merchant
out of them with fair promises, would
now be wearing their old suits with a
patch on their shoes and a rent in their
hats. Debt annoys some people to al
most madness, while others appear to
have no conscientious sccHples and con
sider themselves honest. The country
will never get any better, generally, until
our people learn to live more economi
nally, and make an effort to pay their
honest obligations.
Terrible F*r*w*rl**.
Cough in the morning, hurried or diffi
cult breathing, raising phlegm, tightness
in the chest, quickened pulse, chiliness in
the evening or sweat* st night, all or any
of these things are the first stages of con
sumption. Acker’s English Cough Reme
dy will cure these fearful symptoms, and

The iron mine that Capt. Meade and T.
M. Kellogg invested in near Allatoona,
Ga., when .South in February last, now
proves to be the richest mine in the
State. The fact was demonstrated dur
ing their recent visit to that place. They
were absent about thirty days, and are
well satisfied with the trip and the atten
dant result. Wheat, when they left there
was about as far advanced as it is here
in July. The temperature is more evenly
divided, the nights cool and agreeable.
They speak very highly of this feature
which we in the North have been
led to believe was one of the most disa
greeable things to contend with in the
South.

More than half of all deaths occur be

It is said that the oldest man living
anywhere is James James, a negro of
Santa Rosa, Mexico, who was born near
Dorchester, S. C., in 1752. He was with

elected President, went to Texas when
one hundred and one years old, moved
into Mexico five years later, and now at
the ripe age of one hundred and thirty
six, lives in a little hut, to which he is
confined by rheumatism, aud is sup
ported by contributions from the citi
