A TOUCHING SCENE.
A Touch of Nature Which Hake* the
Whole World Kin.
“There was a pathetic scene on a
train on the Western Division of the
Erie recent'y,” said a conductor on
that road. “A woman boarded the
train at Olean. She carried in her
arms u baby bat a few days old.
It was • very cross and peevish, and
defied nil of its uarse’s efforts to
keep it quiet. Its cries were at
times so loud and piercing that the
other passengers could not hide their
anuovunce, and after a while audible
expressions of their feelings came
from all purls of the car. The wo
man was patient under the double
trial of the child’s troublesomeness
aud the evident knowledge of the an
noyance it was to her fellow passen
gers. She talked soothingly to the
cbiLI, placed it in all positions, and
tried to so arrange its wrappings ns
to, in a measure, deaden the sound of
its cries. Finally some otle in the
car, whose impatience had got the
better of bis sympathy, shouted out:
“If that child can’t be kept quiet,
l hope it will bo removed from the
train at the next station.’”
This unfeeling remark seemed to
meet with general approval, and the
poor woman’s eyes tilled with tears,
and in attempting to speak her feel
ings overcame her, and she pressed
tbo bnby closer to her and sobbed
violently. She soon recovered herself,
and redoubled bur efforts to keep the
child quiet. For a short time she
succeeded somewhat, but presently
the cries of the baby were os loud
and prolongdlVTis ever. At‘last a
man aroso and said sharply:
“Madam, it would seem to me
that the mother of nn infant should
know bow to take at least half cure
of it.”
Tbo train hnd now stopped at
Salamanca. At tho remark of the
second spenker, tho woman arose in
her seat, aud, facing the car full of
passengers, said, iu a voice tremb
ling:
“I am not this poor little thing’s
mother. I liover saw it before yes
terday, and I believe it hasn't a liv
ing relative. Its father was killed on
the railroad a week before it was
born. Its mother, living in a distant
place, hurried to the scene ot Iter
husband’s death. The child was
born among strangers, and day be
fore yesterday the mother died, leav
ing her little one with no oue to care
for it. I lived in the house where
tho mother died, and volunteered to
do what I could for the poor little
thing, and to go with the dead wo
man’s remains to her native place.
Her body is iu tho train. I am sorry
the child is so troublesome, but isn’t
it entitled to some little symputby ?"
The cRVct of the woman’s words
uiav bo imagined. There were a few
dry eyes when she dropped, sobbing
into her seat. .All selfishness wns lost
in the sympathetic thoughts of the
little wanderer, aud a score of hands
that a moment beforo were almost
willing to rise in ehastiseiue.i* of the
littDt) were now- anxious to extend aid
to it and its self-sacrificing guardiau.
It wns a touch of nature that makes
the whole w< rid kin.”

Col. Holman Watts is an Austin
gentleman of desponding tarn of
mind, who is always threatening to
commit suicide when things do not
go to suit him, but bus never suc
ceeded iu doing so. He became de
pressed a few days ago because bis
bnt flew off when lie sneezed, and de
siring to put au end to bis life be
started as usual for the cistern with
suicidal intent.
“Take off tlioso boots first," said
the wife, who is a mater-of-fact wo
man.
"What for?" he asked feebly, pull
ing open the trap door.
“Because tile water will harden the
boots, Hiid next time you go down to
the lodge in them, when yon come
home you will compluin of corns

two dollars. “Which barely covers
the cost,” she mildly purrs, “for I
don’t seek to make profit out of mere
sociability.” She suggests, too, that
her guests might like for her to as
semble at the table their own number
of ngreeabla ladies—on the same
terms. Tho oddity of the scheme is
captivating, and probably a dinner
parly of two to half a dozen couples
is made up. The dinner is excellent,
and reasonably cheap. The young
women are glib, good looking and
fashionably dressed, and there is a hi
larious evening over the convivial
board; but when the bill comes to be
settled, it is found that n great deal
of wine, mostly ebampagne, bas been
swallowed, and the visitors are lucky
if they got off with a charge less than
ten dollars apiece. This is the queer
est restaurant that theS^Jentfvecess
of New York has yet devised.
Hyacinth XVeb.tcr.
-
Jim Webster was recently blessed
with n son. His wife determined
that the son and heir should have a
high-sounding name, and selected n
very beautiful one. When the child
wns presented to the clergyman for
baptism the latter said:
“Name this infant.”
Jim scratched bis head for a while,
and finally said:
"Squash.”
“Dat’s no proper name for n Chris
tian child.”
“Sunflower, den.”
Once more • the clergyman shook
bis bead incredulously. Jim Webster
loaned over and whispered to bis wife
to give him the right name.
“Hyacinth,” she replied.

Bill Nj e on Venice.
Venice is one of the best watered
towns iu Europe. Yon can hardly
walk a block without getting yoor
feet wet, unless yon ride in a gondola.
The gondola is along, slim hack with
out wheels nnd is worked around
through the damp streets by a bru
nette tnsn, whose breath should be n
sad WH.tning to ns all. He is called
the gondolier. Sometimes be sings
in a low tone of voica and in a for
eign tongu;. I do nob know where
I have met to many foreigners as I
have here in Europe, unless it was in
New York at the polls. -Whever I go
I bear a foreign tongue. I do not
know whether theso people talk in
the Itulian language just to show off
or not. Perhaps they prefer it.
Another Positively Last Continuance.
“Your Honor,’' said counsel for the
prosecution, “I wonld like to have
this case continued.” .
“It has been continued several
limes already,” said the court,
“I know it; but your Honor, I
have nmde nn engagement with—”
“This is a very important case,”
interrupted the court. “The very
institution of our government rests
on the principle involved.”
“I know that; but your Honor, I
have made no engagement to go fish
ing this evening with a very dear
friend of mine.”
Ab, well, then, of course I shall
have to continue tho case, but us I
have said before this is posively the
last continuance of this case that will
be granted.” ,
Got to Live.
A Now Yorker who was coming
home from California last week bad
his pocket picked by a fellow-passen
ger on a train as. they came through
Arizona. The victim discovered biB
loss too late to capture the sharper,
and when be appealed to the conduc
tor for consolation that official re
plied :
“Ah! it was the fellow with the
the haws eyes.”
“Yes.”
“Very smooth talker ?”
"He was.”
“Well, be used to sell silver mines
to Boston parties, nnd as that busi
ness is now played out, ami he's got
to live sbomebow, be baa probably
turned to picket-picking. He’s no
honorable man, though, and will mail
you tiny receipts or gas bills he may
find in the wallet.”
Mrs. Peterby, of Dallas, is a wo
man with a head for bnsiness.
“Just see her?. I have bought n
bountiful rocking chair at auction
worth $3, and I only paid $2 for it;
bo yon see I have $1 dear - profit.
Don’t tell me aft-r Hu's Ihat women
have no bosinesa si i.ot;.”
“Do yon need the rocking chair?”
asked Mr. Peterby
“No.” *
“Then what did'yon buy it for?”
••To save ‘money, of course. How
could I have saved that dollar if I
hadn’t bought it, yon stupid block

Whence Cam* the Name T
Many explanations have been giv
en to the origin of (be term “devil,”
as applied to a printer's apprentice,
but the most probable and most ra
tional is as follows: The first errand
boy employed by William CaxtOD, tba
first printer in England, was the son
o! a gentleman of French descent
named D* Ville or Deville, and the
wuik devil, ns app> ed to printers’ ap
prentices iu the English langaage,
bad this iunocent origin.
