UKED THE CITY OF CHURCHES.
A Brooklyn Man Who Bad Only One
Cloml In all Bis Snnahlne.
“Why do I like Brooklyn better than
New York? TO tell yon,” said a former
dweller on Manhattan Island, who is
now living in the City of Churches, to a
reporter. “I moved over here in the
first place because rents were lower. It
was not mors than a week after we were
settled when we received a pleasant call
from people living in oar block, and an
invitation to make our church home in
common with them in the Trinity Pres
byterian church, at Marcy and Jefferson
avenues. Inside of a month we hod an
agreeable circle of acquaintances, and
were ourselves ready to extend a wel
come to newcomers.
“Show me a neighborhood in New
York where a family moving in is treat
ed in that way, unless it be near a mis
sion churah. In New York the churches
hire a ‘missionary’ who makes a busi
ness of visiting, and whose visits are
purely business culls. In Brooklyn the
people do the visiting in person, and do
it in a friendly way. In New York every
body is too busy and too conservative to
think of his neighbor, unless it bo to
goeeip about him, but in Brooklyn the
people take time to make themselves
agreeable to their neighbors.
“Another thing that is little in itself,
bnt counts for a good deal in the long
run, is the attention one receive* on the
elevated trains. The guards are more
accommodating and seem to know more
in Brooklyn. It puts me in a better
humor all day when, in the morning, as
I go to my business, I see an intelligent
guard on the train who is a gentleman
in acts as well as looks. I don’t intend
to be unreasonable, bnt I can’t see why
a guard in New York cannot be ac
quainted with distances and localities as
well as a Brooklyn guard.
“One thing bus bothered me, however,
ever sihee I came here, and that is, why
the conductors on the surface cars are
obliged to ring up the fares when a pns-
lenger gets on the car. I have seen many
a conductor who rang np fares, and had
the passenger discover that he was on
the wrong car and jump off before the
fare was collected. Bat that is tho only
thing that has troubled me sineo I have
been living here.’ — New York Tribune.
Keen Scent.
A gentleman in New York, the owner
of one of the finest collections of butter
flies in the country, has made an experi
ment which proves conclusively that
butterflies are endowed not only with
bright colors, bnt with marvelously
acute senses. Out of his collection, com
prising almost every known varioty, he
chose two butterflies which were only
two or three days old, and had never hod
their freedom.
One of these he attached securely by a
thread to the fence in the rear of Ins
houso in the upper part of New York.
He marked the other so that he could
identify it, and placing it in a small box
carried it down town to one of the ferries,
across the river to Hoboken, and Borne
distance into the city of Hoboken.
Here it was turned loose. When the
experimenter reached his house, several
hours later, be found the two butterflies
side by side on his back fence. The but
terfly which was but just born, and had
never before had its liberty, had traveled
several miles, crossed a wide river and
promptly found its way back to its mate
in one of those back yard* of New York
which are almost Indiatingoishably alike
In their ugllnees.
This seemed a most cxtn$g#t,iary feat
to one of a party of gentlerApr. to whom
the story etas told by the experimenter,
and he asked a well known naturalist
whether it could be believed. The nat
uralist answered that the sense of smell,
which was undoubtedly in this case the
butterfly's guide, was in many animals
so wonderfully sente that to him the
case did not seem remarkable, much less
unbelievable.—Youth's Companion.
Bln Feltb Fallal.
“I remember a negro in the southern
states some yean ago,” mid the old sol
dier as be rested bis war worn frame in
a chair at the Monongahola house. “He
was an old man, and when tired sun
ning himself on a log in the lsneway he
was accustomed to retire to the shade
and doze. He had a class of twenty or
so little boys to whom be used to give
Bible tenons, generally on Sunday after
noon.
“It was his practice to give ont on ons
Sunday the lessons to be prepared for
the next The old fellow was a little
blind and a good bit deaf, and this fact
induced the yonng fellows to put up a
joke on blip. .In the old boy's absence
the/glued t\yp pages of tho Bible to
gether, and on the following Sunday sat
expectant of how their little game would
work. The old tutor put on his “specs,”
and giving a sympathetic glance at his
class opened the Bible at the passage
about Noah’s ark, and began to read.
“He spelled out the lesson to the end
of the page—‘and Noah took with him
into tho ark one of every kind.' and so
on, ‘and one wife,’ and turning over
continued, 'she was 143 cubits long and
SO wide, built entirely of Cyprus wood
and pitched inside and out'
•Foh de Lawd’s sake! What a wom
an? exclaimed the old darky, glancing
wonderingiy over the book at. his grin
ning class. Ho paused and pondered
over the wonderful dimensions of Noah’s
wife for many minutes, and Then said:
‘Boys, we musn’t doubt anythin’ the
book says, bat take it as ti other
passage fnrder on, which says. We are
fearfully and wonderfully made.'"—

Growth of Yacht Agencies.
Nothing shows the growth of yacht
ing in America more than the growth
pf the yacht agency. If a man wants
to buy, sell or charter a yacht he goes to
a yacht agency. In a large New York
agency a list can be found of every
yacht for sale or for charter in the
United States and England. Every de
tail concerning them is also there on
record. Besides this there is a list of
the yachts which the proprietor of the
agency has on hand for sale or charter.
This is not all. Crews, sailing masters,
and all sorts of appliances for yachts ore
furnished by the agency. From small
beginnings the yacht agencies have be
come largo and well paying business en
terprises.—Now York Tribune.
UWmarck’t Favorite Flower.
Prince Bismarck’s fondness for heather
is not n new fancy. With him the heather
is, more truly than the primrose was to
laird Bcacoesficld, “his favorite flower.”
Nearly thirty years ago, when minister
to Paris, he made a trip to tho south of
France, visiting among other places
Chainbord. Writing to his wife from
Bordeaux, unto date July 37, 1862, Bis
marck says: “From inclosed specimens
of heather yon will no longer be able to
see how pnrple this' plant I am so fond
of blooms there—the only flower m the
royal garden, and swallows almost the
only living creatures in the castle. For
sparrowsitis too lonely.*—London News.
Salt for Toothache.

of it in hot water, taken either just be

aid to digestion, and a cupful of very

First Cleri
One War ot Looking at It.
The British soldiers invaded Connecti
cut in 1779, and during their march
through Fairfield village amused them
selves by setting fire to all the public and
many private buildings, all of which
were totally destroyed. Among the
former was the Congregational church,
at that time even a landmark by reason
of its age. The good people were in
censed at the proceeding, as they felt
that the application of the match to
churches was uncalled for; bnt they were
powerless to prevent it. They could sim
ply look on while the structure was con
suming. In due time another church
was built on tho same site, and it was
used down through the decades till early
in June, 1890. when in some mysterious
way it took fire and was destroyed.
This circumstance, while it is a per
plexing one, proves to have had one fort
unate phase. Le.. it gave the society an
opportunity, if there was any consola
tion in it, to make things even in part
aa regarded the old score, anil in this
way: Some years ago the Church com
mittee were instructed to insure the
church property. They did so. placing
a portion of the amonnt with American
companies, but the larger share with t
British company. In the insurance ad
justment the latter company was called
on to pay, which it did promptly, the
sum of $10,000. One hundred and ten
years was a long time, bnt the church,
realizing the truth of on old saying,
“Everything comes to them who wait,”
have as their reward the consciousness
of having made- in part at least—old
accounts Square.—New York Tribune.
Aluminum the Burnt Metal.
Aluminum is now the rarest metal in
the world, although it is the most use
ful, and the earth from which it can be
reduced is found all over the globe—in
Ohio as well as far off India. The largest
piece of aluminum in the world is the
cap of the Washington monament This
weighs 100 ounces. A larger piece of the
metal has never been produced.' Not
many years ago a Washington chemist
discovered a process for the production
of the metal.
He thought it waa perfect, and found
no difficulty in getting $500,000 to back
him up. A huge plant was erected in

Some recent authentic statistics show
the extent to which the electric lighting
industry has grown in this country. The

aggregate a capital stock of $> 19,000,000,
and this may be taken to be very near
the amonnt actually invested, as the

more than the nominal share capital.
