"From the murderous O'Maddens,

M.vdeu lane bun been singularly free
from (lustrum ive (ires for many years,
ami there is a superstition among the
jewelry uiid diamond merchanta of that
Itrcet that the lane will never snccnml>
to flames or streams of water, and that
the old rickety buildings lining it on
both sides are pretty nearly "fireproof.”
The records of the fire patrol, which
go back to 1874, prove tlnft in the IuBt
eighteen years 118 fires have taken place
In that neighborhood, nil of which were
of little account. Those fires which af
fected jewolry establishments woro tho
most insignificant of the lot, and their
stock was nevor damaged by any fire.
This seems strange, for the reason
that in tho majority of houses occnpied
by jowolors numberless small nnd
rickety rooms arc used as smelting fur
naces and workshops, with plonty of op
portnnftios for creating heat and flames.
I talked witluv number of merchants
located in thi^ireeious motal district,
between Broadwuy uml William strict,
and all of them said they hod never lost
a cent by firo. One of the reasons for
this happy state of nffairs is their ex
treme cautiousness. They have watch
men constantly ou t he promises to gnurd
against thioves, and these men aro hound
to look out for conflagrations likowlso.
Whenever there is tho slightest cause
for daugor tho thick doors of the safes
aro locked in a jiffy, and all hands in the
building combine to remove that cause.
As ono of tho “Maiden lanurs" ex
pressed himself, there is no inducement

A Choice Recipe,
There is n choice rocipo, in which
tho owl figures, to "mnko any one
that sleopeth answer to whatsoever
thou ask," given in “PhyBlck for tho
Poor," published in London in 1057.
It says that you aro to "tako tho
heart of an owl and his loft leg, and
put that upon tho breast of ono thut
sleopeth, and they shall reveal whnt-
soovor thou slialt ask them."
Tho Hindoos, however, declare that
the flesh or blood of an owl will make
a person insane who eats or drinks
it. On this account men who are
devoured by jealousy of a rival or
liRtred of u:i enemy come furtively
to the market and purchase an owl.
In silence they carry it homo and
secretly prepare a decoction which
an accomplice will put into the food
or drink of the object of tlioir umlig
nant designs. —All the Your Round. '
A Turkish Rrrpoiit NupuiMtltlou.
Tho people of all serpent ridden
countries 'have many charms, spells
ond Incantations which they rejiont
or perform for the purpose of exor
cising such obnoxious visitors. In
Turkey ovcybotly from tho sultan
to tho gamin appeals to tho serpent
king, Chnh-Miran. When they come
in contact with a serpent the first ex
clamntiou is, "In the muno of Cliah
Miruu, go away nnd hide thyself,"
Of course Chah-Mirnn lias been

eler's stock represents is kept in Hates,

among tliut rcHpcctublu class of mor-
clmnts ho would not dare set lire to Ids

his stock, for such a thing would givo
him away in an instant. If a really de
structive fire should occur in ono of tho

covered as soon as they had cooled off. '

Wh> is tho mysterious paint brash
evangelist of Westchester county? Up
and down tho beautiful hills and along
tho rugged, rocky roads of Westciiestoi
for mile after mile his work cnn bo
seen. Tho wayfarer cannot escape it.
Al every fresh turn in the read tlio
printed words of warning confront him.
Even the most ungodly sinner in all
Now York, after walking a mile from
tho little village of White Plains, would
think ho wns surely on the rocky road
to tho New Jerusalem.
Up in Westchester thoy call tho mys
terious evangelist the "Scripture Sliug-
er,” and they say "ho slings it powerful
thick,*" So lib does, and with discrimi
nation rare, in paint of tho hne of heav
en's own blue, mixed in oil.
All along those rocky roads tho fences
aro made of huge bowlders, out of
which rough walls aro made, separat
ing tho pastures and bounding tho road
sides. Besides there uro still other
bowlders jutting out of the soil along
the roadway. On tlieso, and on t lie
stono fences, the mysterious ovaiigclist
unfolds his warnings. Ho is iv little
man, but energetic. He is asilout man,
except with his brash, made out of hairs
plucked from tho nocks of oxen. With
it ho speaks. His only imirm is “Georgo."
Ho marches, a Salvation Army of ono
man, carrying a bugle to announce His
coming. His sandy mustache bristles,
and tlio lines of his face show sixty
years. There bungs upon his head nil
old straw hat, summer und winter, and
ou the lmt is a broad ribbon, bearing the
legend, “Jesus is mighty to save." A
cane, curved with innumerable inscrip
tions, helps him over tho hills ns lie
marehoB on, carrying the battered hand
bag in which repose his restless brash,
his pot of paint, his Biblo nnd other little
things, such as a comb and cake of soap,
through the nso of which ho keeps him
self only a semiuomnd. Thoy say there
is no vanity in him, nor any glass with
it quicksilver back in that battered bag
As he marches lie spies a rock, big
and brown, half hidden behind a clump
of woods, nnd on which ho left no mes
sage when lust ulong that way. In n
moment tlio woeds uro uprootod, unit
ltneoling by the rook lie paints, letter by
lotter, "O-b-e-y t-li-o L-o-r-d," Thun lie
marches on reading tho Biblo. On a
smooth worn bowlder in tho stono fence,
ho prints, "Repontl Bolieve! And sin no
more." Across tho road he loaves the
warning, “You must repont or go to
hell." A little farther on lie kneels
again, and under his brush grow tho
words, “Tho wages for sinners is hell
firo."
Thoro aro painted words, though
along tho roads more worldly than „t.o
0110s ho loavo there. Ono of them says.
“Spend your Sundays at Manhattan
boncli.” Ou finding this it is said li"
bowed his head a moment. Thon iu n
deeper sliudo of hide than usual, mixed
on tlio spot, ho paiutod right alongside
tho words, “Whore will you spend
etoruity?”
Muny of the farmers up in Westchester
take summer boarders, and on u.big tree
in the froKt yard ouch of thorn nails up
a sign which roads; “Plcusuut summer
homo. Board by the day or week."
Across tho road from such as these i ho
paint brash says, "Think of that beauti
ful homo above."
So tbo strange evangelist goes on,
fighting tho world with blue paint, meas
ure for measure, and covering the snr.
plus space with admonition, exhortation
and advice.
To him all things are of the world
worldly, and therefore he knows naught
of politics.
This Btraugo man sleeps by the road-
sido, in a stable or where he may, and
for mouths eats only what is givdn
him. Money is nothing to him. For
a little while each year ho works on
tho Sound View stock funn, owned by
William A. S.unmis, and it is thon he
pulls the hair from the uecks of oxen
aud makes his stock of brushes. His
puint is given him and ho mixes it him
self.
He has been told to stop the task of
covering tbo rocks of Westchester with
bluo paint, bnt he keeps on. By bis ac
tion he says, "Shull a limn not moke his
follow mun reflect?"
Township trustees threaten and re
solve in vain. The mottoes multiply.
Assaults do not terrify him. Once he
was met by two mon near the West
chester fair grounds and commanded
to stop painting a sentence he had begun.
He turned his back to them nnd kept on
without reply. When ho had finished
he began u new sentence. Then the
men rushed at him andetruck him down
senseless with clubs. The unfinished
sentence read:
‘Forgive thine"

What a Widow In.
It was a Sunday school class, and the
teacher believed in asking questions to
see bow clearly the scholars understood
their lessons. The widow of Ham was
the subject, and the teacher thought she
would be quickly answered when she
asked, “What is a widow?" There was
a silence until she nodded to the small
boy at her left and said, "You know
what a widow is, don’t you?" for she
knew the boy’s mother was one. “Yeg'm,”
be answered; "it’s a lady what takes in
washing.”—New York World.

THAT WOnAN AGAIN.
In the course rf an interview with
Mrs. Mary E; Lease, in the Chicago
Inter Ocean, tlial feminine disciple of
Weaver or Harrison, Heaven only
knows which, says:
“From Wayeross we proceeded to
Albany, not without misgivings, how
ever, ns we had been informed that
that place was the stronghold of or
ganized Democracy. •
“Shortly after our arrival at Albany,
a turbulent, howling, drunken mob
gathered in and around the hotel.
The Democratic chairman came and
offered hr the use of the opera house
free, and assured us ‘on the faith of a
Georgian,* we would not be molested
nor our meeting Interrupted. Yet,
notwithstanding the gentleman’s
honor was at stake we were frequent
ly interrupted in the vilest manner.
A plot Ittul been laid Ip shut us in the
opera house and at the conclusion iff
our addresses wo would be compelled
to listen to n tirade of drunken abuse
from a Negro hired by the ciiivalric
Democracy to demonstrate their ideas
of social equality.
Yes, Sister Lease found us a strong
hold of organized Democracy, and
such we remain.
To use mild language, however, Mrs.
Lease is mistaken when she .impugns
the motives of any of Dougherty’s
Democratic Executive officials. What
ever taunts proceeded from the “mob,”
as she calls it, were intended for the
South-hater Weaver, and not for Mrs.
Lease, who was accorded a respectful
hearing, and who, as she knows, soon
soothed the greater part of the “mob”
Into silence by her artful cunning nnd
designing flattery.
The good Democrats here endeavor
ed, to the best of their ability, to have
the party accorded a respectful hear
ing, and to that end they took seats on
the platform to prevent any disturb
ance arising. Mrs. Lease knows that
to be a fact, and, to he mild again, she
is mistaken if she contradicts it.
Speaking of Carter’s reply, we have
but a word to say. If Mrs. Lease puts
herself in a man’s place, she must bear
(lie brunt of whatever reply may come
from a man of the opposing faction.
We have no apology to make.
Whenever a true and honorable man
cotnfc? among Southern people he Is
treated as such, and whenever a lady
comes among us she is accorded the
true chivalrous respect nnd courtesy
which is only characteristic of the
Houthern gentleman. When Weaver,
Lease & Co., come among us as such,
they will be treated as such.

A Curious Northern Legend.
On tlio coiibfc of liuiDclur.ka thoro is
an isluml known us “Tlio ial iinl of Talk
ing Dogs.” Tho cnrimia story connected
with this littlo unit of haul, mnl tho ono
which gives ic tho uamu it boars is this*
according to uu oihl Asiatic legend;
The first inhabitants of tho far north
did not employ clogs, hut drew tlioir
walrus rib sleds themselves. After ages
Uad elapsed men made an attempt tour.o
flie dogs of that region—which, by the
tvuv, tallied jasfc ns mon do—ua lumstsof
burden. The talking dogs, however,
atgued tho case with their would he
musters aud wore not long in proving
that thoy had enough to do to catch
game for themselves and tho children of
men. But the men soon learned the use
of tho bow and the spear, thus ruining
the occupation of the talking dogs.
Again an attempt was made to harness
them to sledges, but tho talking canines
rebelled, nnd all swam out to the i laud,
afterward known by the title given in
the opening. Here game was scarce
ntid the dogs soon turned cannibals, atul
by the end of the first winter there were
only seven left.
Some human Kamchatkans volun
teered to row out to the island and bring
off the remnant of the dog colony. But
the dogs refused to leave their barren
island, each earnestly asking: “What
people are you? Wo have never seen
you before.” For this untruth Chami,
the dog god, took their voices from
them, aud until this day th?y have been
the dumb servants of mail.— St. Louis
Republic.

“Yes, brethreu," says the clergyman
who is preaching the funeral sermon,
“our deceased brother was cut down in
a single night—tom from the arm of
his loving wife, who is thus left a dis

twenty-four years.”
“Twenty-two, if yon please,” sobs the
widow in the front pew, emerging from
her handkerchief for an iustant.—Lon
