It has come to such a pass thut a a man of moderate incomo reluctantly resigns himself to the expensive luxury of a shave in a barber shop. The growth of the pernicious feeing system makes tho barber shop an unhappy stopping place for a modest man \y{Ki thinks that twenty-five cents is a sufficient expenditure. Tho moment one enters the shop insuperable hints remind him that he is not expected to get out without feeing somebody. The brush boy makes a grab for his hat and insists upon hanging it upon a peg. The barber spends Inllfiite pains upon tho unhappy subject. He asks hi tones of tender Interest whether the razor is harsh, whether tho hair should | be parted one-tenth of an inch higher or lower, and a hundred other ques tions designed to show what an interest he takes hi his customer. Then he presses with a clinging pressure the cheek Into the hand of tho miserable victim, and looks dispiritedly at bis band if a coin Is not loft b^hh’d. Before half out of tho chair t!> vie tlm is attacked savagely by a brush in tho hands of the shop boy, and when the miserable man has paid fur tiis shave ho finds the buy blocking up the door with bis hat in band Bure rliaine coerces a fee. A barber shop with a rule forbidding fees could not accommodate its custom ers hi a building as large as tho post office. —New York Telegram. Certainly Extraordinary.

Before Jackson, Miss., ho was again on tho skljimlsb Hue, whop a shell cut off t lie limb of a tree, which fell upon him, bearing him to tho ground, and owjc again a Confederate soldier appears ~ plunged a bayonet into his neck and re-tired.

A LOCOMOTIVE’S HEADLONG RUSH. Down a Mountain. Through a IJout, and Into sixty Feet or Water. One of the most thrilling and startling accidents ever happening In the annals | of railroad accidents In this city oc- I ourrod at the Iron Mountain railroad incline at West Memphis, when a looo ! motive engine dashed under a full head of steam down tho steep truck, crashed through n transfer boat, and plunged into tho Mississippi river where tho water Is sixty feet deep. At 8:45 o’clock in the morning the through train from St. Louis arrived at the west bank of the Mississippi. One- j half of the coaches had boon run onto the transfer boat, and the locomotive had returned for tho remainder, when 1 the remaining couches were seen mov ing down the Incline. Some one yelled .to tiie engineer of the locomotive on the Incline that there wns danger of a col lision. Tin' affrighted engineer jumped from his engine, which began to move rapidly down tho incline. lie tried to 1 catch and bring it to a stop, seeing no cause for danger, but it was too late. The speed of the engine was accelerated by the steam and steepness of the grade. Like lightning it sped down the track. Few on the boat saw the mad rush of the abandoned locomotive, but these were paralyzed with fear. There was danger of the engine leaving the track at tho Junction of the incline track and that on tho boat. In case of this the immense muss of iron wouhl liax-e prob ably dashed Into the coaches on tho boat with their mass of human freight. No power 01 earth could stop the head long rush of tho abandoned engine. Like a meteor it rushed along the track. The spectators expected it to leave five track on Its entry on the boat, but the locomotive dashed through thasteamor over its stem and plunged into tho water. A plunge, a deafening roar of dis turbed water, a hissing noise of (‘scap ing steam, and the immense mass of Iron went down to the bottom of tho river, and in an Instant tho water was as smooth as glass. Those who wit nessed tho thrilling scene breathed a sigh of relief when they realized that only chance had averted a terrible ca tastrophe.—Memphis Avalanche. Extfind tho I'rcsent System.

KATY DID AND KATY DIDN’T. An Evening Song That a Simple rroemure of the Hand Will Hindi. Thero is one crop of early autumn that grows on trees which doesn’t vary much, and that is the katydids. Cli matic influences are favorable to tho growth of this fruit. It is a singular thing that on the same trees where, forty years ago. as little elms, theso chant ing insects lived, they now stay. They are never known to change from ono tree to another There may bo several elms of equal size on one street, but two trees will most likely hold all tho katydids, and from tho first chosen greenery they never budge. The same way ono yard will have its number, or one tree in a yard; the next person's grounds, although just as cool and shaded, will have none. Those in the same tioesor yards have good man ners, never Interrupting each other, but listening Intently for their turn to express their belief as to whether Katy did or didn't. Tho outside world, after listening for years to tho debate, is di vided as to opinion. Just the same mb on more Important subjects, it judges in accordance with tho sentiments of its own consciousness. These little green chanters never change their opinion. For year after year they belong to the dids or didn’ts, and by no mistake alter their saying. Ono may tramp around the trees where they live, may sit beneath them, talk, laugh or indulge in auy noise, and Ivaty chants on In undisturbed monologue. But lay a hand ever so lightly against tlm bark of a tree, one says who Ims tried It, and their notes are instantly hushed, remaining nmto till the hand is removed. In darkness, when one creeps softly up to an elm where, above in the bronchos is taking place a loqua cious dialogue, and softly rests the palms of the hands against the bark, tho silenoo is painfully sudden. There was a man visiting Rhode Island whose ambition was to possess some elm trees, and in them katydids. He had tho elms for tho katydids, but 110 katydids for the elms. No 110 came from his distant homo and got posses sion of one. which ho carried bock and put well up in the greenery of tho elm Then 110 waited. Tho katy was as dumb as a sealed fruit jar, and wouldn’t say a word. 110 wrote back to inquire why tho thing wouldn't open its mouth and sing, lie was informed, first, that tho thing didn't speak tho sentence with any mouth, but with its legs; sec ond, that although tho divorco laws of Rhode Island were often brittle enough to sever knots tied by ministers, still ho need not exi>cet any garrulous hilarity from ono katydid separated from its mate and alone in a lone land. Then another was-sent and put in tho tree, and In truo marital stylo ono sold Katy did, and got contradicted In about a second. They’ve kept it up over since. —Providence Journal.

Our Puritan ancestors were strongly inclined to refer every occurrence toon overruling providence. They were not wrong in theory, but tho practice of calling in frequent special interposi tions rather confusod the idea of be neficent natural law. The old view is brought out in a story told of John Eliot, the apostle to tho Indians. He was as ready to do his white neighbors a good turn ns to labor for the spiritual welfare of the savages. Indeed, ho was thought by some to be too gen- . orous. His salary was often distributed for the relief of his needy neighbors so soon after tho period nt which it was received that before another pay day arrived his own family were straitened for tiie comforts of life. One day the parisli treasurer, xvhon called upwTny Mr. Eliot for tho salary due, put it into a handkerehlof, and tied the end* of tho handkerchief inns many hard knots as he could, in order to prevent tho pastor’s giving away the money before lie got home. Tho good man received Ids handker chief and took leave of the treasurer. Ho immediately went to tho house of a sick and necessitous family. On en tering he gave them Ids blessing, and told them that God had sent them somo relief. The sufferers, with tears of gratitude, welcomed their pious benefactor, who, with moistened eyes, began to untie tho knots in Ills handkerchief. After many efforts to get at his money, and impatient at the perplexity and delay, ho gavo the handkerehlof and all tho money to tho mother of the family, saying with a trembling accent, “Here, my dear, take it; I believe the Lord de signs it all for you.”—Youth’s Com panion.

My first attack of toothache is ono of my strongest recollections. I recall tiie tears I shod, tho throbbing pain, and how I cried all night. Then tho only dentist we ever heard of, tho vil lage doctor, was called. At tho sight of his forceps the tooth ache stopped. I could not see the necessity of removing a painless tooth and told him so. But he talked sooth ingly and introduces his forceps. They could hardly enter for tho'howl* I wns emitting. Tho touch of tho cold steel on my gums made tho flesh creep. Then tho line tor, whom I thought a cruel wretch, held my head tight against his knee. There was a wrench as if my head was being pulled off. 1 was filled with wratli and thought of how I would have it out witli the doctor when I became a man. Then was another wrench which I soemed to feel to tho soles of my feet, as if every bono was being wrenched out of its socket, and the doctor held tho bleed ing molar in tho forceps.—l)r.
