Although all the members of the Van derbilt family entertain on a magnificent scale they never permit their children to remain np.late at night, are extTemely carefni in their education, and, in a word, are fitting them for life as well as any mother or father could do. It is one of the roles in all the houses of the Vanderbilts that the children shall go to bed early and rise early. The little boys and girls are up before 7 o'clock in the morning. Their nurses immediately take charge of them, see that they are properly bathed and dressed, and then they go down to breakfast, which is served at half-past 7 o'clock. It is an unpretentious meal, with plenty of fresh milk, eggs, oatmeal and a bit of steak or h chop that will add strength to their physique and color to their checks. After breakfast there is an hour of study. There is something for these little ones to do at all times during the day. They go through their studies systematically, nnd then, about half-past 9, are taken out for a walk. They are allowed to romp in the streets and in the parks to thoir hearts’ content. At 11 o’clock they are brought home, and a light luncheon of milk and bread is served, after which there are more studies—either French, German or draw ing—and then another breathing spell; it may be horseback riding, or a drive out through the park and along the country road. Back they all come about 4 o'clock, and there is another hour of study, and then they are through for the day. They are allowed to do just as they please until tea time, when after their meal they spend a pleasant hoar or so with their fathers and mothers and others who may drop hi to call. Promptly at 8 o’clock they are all in bed to sleep toundly, and get up the next morning to jo throngli the same programme. . So it a not strange that all the children of the Vanderbilt family are further in ad- rance of their little friends in the mat- ler of education. For they study, study, .tndy all the time. They are all fond of music nnd most of them can play on the piano. The girls afe learning to play on the harp, and the boys are famous among their friends as violinists and banjo players. If you were to see these chil dren on the street yon would not for a moment suspect that they were other than children of parents in ordinary circum stances. They make no display at elalio- rate dress. The eldest of Cornelius Van derbilt's daughters is dressed plainly in little, pretty, cheap dresses without any braid or ornamontation. She wears snug fitting cloth jackets,and the little cap that sits gracefully on her head could be du plicated for n'couple of dollars.—Cor. La dies' Home Journal. A Condemned Man’s Nerve. One of the coolest and most deliberate attempts at suicide recorded is that of Benjamin Hunter, the murderer of John Armstrong, in Camden, N. J„ in 1879. Hunter was confined in the “murderers’ cage” in the county jail nnder charge of the death watch. He complained of chilliness one night, and was permitted to wrap his lower extremities in a blanket He had previously torn off the rim of his tin enp with hit teeth, and had it concealed in his trousers pocket Talking on commonplace topics to his guard. Hunter secretly took the jagged strip of tin from his pocket, and, con cealing his movements with the blanket, began cutting into an artery in his left leg. The blood spurted out . in jets, and the flow was concealed by Hunter spreading the blanket out like a skirt He became so weak that he was unable to continue the conversation, and the guard’s sus picions were aroused. He made an ex amination. and found that the murderer was bleeding to death. Physicians were summoned, a ligature was applied and Hunter's life was saved. He was after ward hanged, and it was pretty gener ally believed that he was dead from fright and sedatives before the cord tightened around his neck.—New York Press. j Nuisances In Greet Cities. Not tho least among the various of fenses that meet the eye. and seldom with shy palliating incidents, ore the signs of all kinds that disfigure meet bf the buildings in the business districts, A plain signboard, giving the name of the company or Individual proprietor and the nature of the business, is unob jectionable, however large, ir set hp against the wall, over the entrance or at the threshlinld. The largest concerns in the city-have, however, abandoned even these, and are content to use a small metal plAte for their names. But the popular idea in signs seems to run to as great a display as possible, and in its indulgence taste and safety are sacrificed. What can be more hideous than those great aerial wire structures that project from the tops of buildings or are hong across the streets? They are dangerous, too, as experience has shown. Then there are those dazzling monstrosi ties which, in colored glass, call tho at tention of the passerby to the game of billiards and other pastimes. Some of the porticos which project over the whole sidewalk are utilized for similar purposes. Exaggerated hats, bonnets, clocks, mortal*. saws and other symbols of the merchandise for sale within the stores fiannt before the gaze at every tnm. Most of these are illegal, as the law al lows bnt three feet nearest the building for the display of signs and merchandise, and this is availed in many trades for the profit it will bring, not only to them selves, bnt in some cases by compensa tion from frnit venders or other small trades not connected with the regular occupations.—America. Valuable Sand Lota. Accident in making what afterward turn out to be good investments is always a favorite theme for discussion. An in stance was cited where a yonng man went to Tacoma on a flying visit in the early days of the place, when the prin cipal part of the town was its name. He waa there only a few hoars, bnt in that time was induced to buy several lots for almost nothing. Those lots made a fortune for him so suddenly that he conld hardly realize that it conld he possible. Mark Sheldon, the wealthy real estate owner of San Francisco, made his fort nne out of a bad debt. He had grown rich and poor in several ventures, and when hard pressed once tried to collect all tho money that was due him. One debtor was unable to give him a cent, bnt compromised his debt by handing over to Mr. Sheldon some sand lots in what is now Market street. San Fran cisco. 1 , Sand, lots were not very valuable in those days, and Mr. Sheldon fonnd no opportunity to dispose of his nntil he saw that he might make a pretty sum of them. So ho held on to them, and there is no more valuable real estate in the Golden Gate city today than Mark Shel don's Market street propertr,—New York Tribune.

IV A gentleman residing on the west side noticed a very large June bug flying around his piazza and proceeded to cap ture it Ho placed the captive nnder a heavy glass tumbler which rested on a newspaper* expecting to examine the in sect a little later in the evening when he had leisure. On returning to the table where he had placed the bug, soma half hour later, he fonnd that it had moved the tumbler nearly a foot by placing ita head against the side of the glass and pnshtng It along. In order to be certain that the glass bad been moved by tho captive, he carefully marked ita position on the newspaper with a pencil, and of the expiration of another quarter of an hour fonnd it had been moved nearly five inches. Aa the tumbler weighed at least fifty times ai much as the bug, the ease with which it waa moved around on the paper was a source of considerable astonishment. The June bug was less than an inch in length, and was restored to liberty in view of the exhibition it had given of its strength. The story is vouched for by several witnesses,/who were called in to see the insect as it was pushing the glass along. —Rochester Union. * Mistakes In Print. “Did you ever notice.” said a uav/spa* per man the other day, "what strange mistakes writers will sometimes make?

The first of these is in Greek, the second a conglomeration of hieroglyphics, the third in enchorial writing, n system used by the Egyptians in recording every day mattera. After years of- laborious re search the savants of Europe ascertain ed that the three inscriptions were three versions of a decree in honor of Ptolemy Epiphones by the priests of Egypt, be cause ho had remitted their taxes.
