The resignation of State Senator Bar
rett, of Tennessee, has created much

A lady writes from Boston relating a

mass of Browning’s pieces were incom
prehensible to him. Oscar slapped the
poet familiarly on the shoulder and re
marked: “They are aseteerto me ss a

The London World says that there is
still a strain of Puritanism in America,
and that the sons of the people who
ordained the Blue laws of Connecticut—
who made swearing a finable offense,
kissing one’s wife on Sunday a misde
meanor, less insipid sorts of osculation a
crime—still regard weekly beans as a
burnt offering, and assoieate the domestic
virtues with an aunual feast of roast
turkey and pumpkin pies. We do not
like to dispute so eminent an authority
as the World.
Ford, who shot James, and who lived
with him at St. Joseph since last Novem
ber, says of James’ daily habits:
“During the day he would stay around
the house and ia the evening he would
go down town to the news depot and get
the papers. He said there were men
here who ought to know him, but they
never did. He took the Chicago Tri
bune, Cincinnati Commercial, and Kansas
City Times regularly, and always knew
what was going on all over the world.
About a week ago he read a piece in one
of the papers that Jesse James’ career
was over, and Charlie said he was awful
mad about it. "
Beecher is in favor of Chinese immi
gration to America. He says they are, by
nature, calculated to do a low class of
work at which other races revolt. To
give the reader an idea of how low down
in the social scale the Rev. Mr. Beecher
plaoes the Chinaman, as well as other
raoes of the human family, we quote the
following from his sermon on the sub
ject : “ What the Americans discard the
Germans will eat, what the Germans
the Jew will consume, and what
the Jews throw away the Chinaman will
subsist on.” This is, to say the least,
rather a severe classification. However,
the question now is, Wliat does the
Qfiiuaman eat ?
The story circulates that Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher contemplates retiring from
the pastorate of Plymouth Church, and
permanently from the ministry, on the
completion of his seventieth l>rthday,
which will be June 24, next year. This
is not because he is in full physical and
mental vigor—his admirers say his pres
ent sermons are among the best he has
evej preached—but because, as is re
ported, lie is unwilling to run any risk of
intellectual decline in the pulpit, of
which he seems to have a dread. His
father, Rev. Lyman Beecher, lived to be
more than eighty-seven, but had not
preached regularly for a number of
years previous to his death.
During August of last year, at the
time the Cincinnati Commevnial was
managing the “ Cook One Cnt Fund ”

time, seems of peculiar interest:

if it need be, for him. Borry it is not dollars

Mrs. Samuels, the mother of the mur
dered bandit, Jesse James, made a scene
at tkß grave of the outlaw. She accused
Sheriff Timberlake of murdering Jesse.
When Sheriff Timberlake and Reed
bade Mrs. Samuels good-by they told
her they hnd only done their duty, and
that she knew they would divide their
last cent with her if she was in want,
but never flinch from duty when called
She said: “If yotx think you’ve done
right, I’ll try to believe it. Oh, God !
my heart is broken. It was a brutal
murder for money. You have been kind,
gentlemen, and done all you could for
me since you murdered my poor boy.”
Jesse’s widow fainted as the body was
lowered iuto the grave, and is now lying
in a critical condition. She is dying vi

Tillage Architecture in China.
Villages, not badly built by any means,
occur at intervals of a mile or two apart
all along the roads of China. Very good
brick, mu-Ji about the same size, shape
and material as those made in this couu
try, compose the walls of the better
houses, while for the poorer order of
edifices mud is used. The brick walls
in China are excellent, better than the
cheaper brick walls in America, and but
little inferior to our best pressed brick.
When villages are constructed of mud
there is a striking resemblance to the
villages of Egypt. The houses have no
outside windows and but one opening,
which is the door. The openings for
light are tic wn beer courts or back -yards,
and are without glass. The eaves are
made to project, so as to keep out the
rain, and in doing so of course exclude
much light as well. Blinds in: l A* A
slats are sometimes used, and Hupf]light
paper pasted over the slats servffo keep
out some of the cold air and to let in a
little light. The houses are invariably
one story high. And at the bottom of
this custom is a that higher
houses would interfere with the spirits
of the air (“Fang Chui”) and offend
them, thus bringing disaster upon the
house or village. In front of each door,
and at a distance of eljlht or ten feet,
stands a detached wall, fifteen feet long
and as high as the eaves of the house,
concealing the door from any person
standing in front oil it. This is for the
purpose of protecting the house and
family from malignant “Fung Chui,” or
spil’.ts, which are popularly believed to
fly only in straight lines and to be in
capable of turning a corner. It follows
that when traversing the air in search of
ace rtain house, when they come in con
tact with the wall they are thrown off at
an angle and thus baffled of their fell pur
pose, and fly in a tangent through infiuite
space and are lost. A Chinese village
has but little in common with those of
this country, cither in detail or in gen
eral appearance. While the villgae6 of
America copied from English prototypes
are peculiar, from their detached and
separate build, with gai’dens and grass
plots, those of China are compact, hud
dled together and present from a distance
the aspect of a mere dead wall. One
peculiarity of all Chinese cities and vil
lages is the absence of steeples, spires or
pinnacles of any kind. While Moham
medan countries have the mosque, with
its flashing domes and graceful minarets,
and European and American centres of
population are marked by lofty towers
and spires, China is almost absolutely
without any of these striking architec
tural points. The result is great monotony
and dullness of aspect.
The Price of an Island.
In 1659 the Island of Nantucket was
bought from the Indians for $l5O and
two beaver bats. This fact came on dur
ing a gathering of the Coffin family on
that island. One of the buyers of the
island was Tristan Coflyn. To show how
rapidly a prolific race increases, it is said
that fifty years after Tristan’s death hie
descendants numbered 1,158. They are
now found everywhere.
Nantucket has had a varied history.
When whaling was in vogue it was the
headquarters of that business. Its resi
dent population was always largely com
posed of women, the wives and daugh
ters of tho absent whalers. When
petroleum took the place of the whale
oil Nantucket lost its business, and foi
many years it was impossible to rent
more than one-fourtli of the houses on
the island. Its health and cheapness,
however, have since made it a populai
summer resort, and now tho prices ol
laud have advanced to the old figure.

Jfrfeas of the Conductors.
It is probable that railroad conductors
play more jokes oil each other tnan any
other class of people, and we would pub
lish more of them, only the most of the
conductors are big men who might tie
us up iu a double bow-knot. Wo tell
more jokes on Rumsay than any of the
rest, because he is probably the only
one we could handle in a rough and
tumble fight. Fred Cornes and Ram
sey are represensative conductors, in re
gard to fun, and each is laying for the
other to play a joke. Not long ago
Rumsey hired a passenger that w’as go
ing out on Fred’s train, a fellow who
had three cat boils on his face, to go
into the refrigerator in one corner of the
ear, and when Fred came to pull him
out, to tell him he had the smallpox.
The scheme worked splendidly, and Fred
went into the baggage car and washed
himself all over in a tin wash basin, with
bar soap, and stopped the train at Brook
field Juuction and let the passenger get
off without paying, that being his desti
nation. Aa Lie train was moving iff the
passenger yelled to Cornea and told him
if lie saw Rumsey in Milwaukee to tell
him that the cat boils passed him through
all right. Cornt s at once saw through
the joke and laid for Rumsey. A spell
ago the two met, and both were tired, so
Fred suggested that they take a Turkish
hath and go up to his house and got
dinner, and then lay down and have a
good sleep. Rumsey consented, if Fred
would promise to wake him up at live
o’clock, as he had an engagement to meet
a lumberman who wanted to buy some
of his pine land. Fred agreed, and they
went ujJ to the house oil Keewaunee
street, near the school house, whore
Fred comes home once in a while, and
went to bed. After they had slept fur a
dotiple of hours Fred got up aud dark
ened the window’B, lit the gas in the
room and turned the clock ahead to half
past seven o’clock. Fred’s wife was let
into the joke, and she darkened the
rooms down stairs, and the hall, and lit
all the gas. Then Fred went up and j
woke Ramsey, who yawned and rolled j
over. Rumsey looked at thecas burn
ing, and then at the clock, and saying,
“This is a pretty trick to pi nr Tin a gen
tleman,” he jumped out of be 1 ana got
into bis pants. As he pulled on his
boots he told Fred that was the last time
he would catch him in that house. “Ii
have been drugged,” said he, as he !
grabbed a cigar and his neat and vest j
cad started down stairs. He stopped in ;
the hall bv the dim pao light to button I
his suspenders, and pulling on Ins vest, j
he took his coat on his arm, yelled an
adieu to Mrs. Cornes aud opened the !
door and jumped to the middle of the
sidewalk. Lot Rumsey tell the rest of j
the story. Says he: “I pledge you
my word it was light ns day. The sun
was shining brighter than I ever saw it,
and more than a million children were
ooming out of the school-house. When
they saw me come out of the house on a
hop, skip and jump, they thought I had
been fired out, ane they gave me a big
laugh. I looked around sort of innocent,
just as though I always came out of
houses that way, and then put on my
coat and looked at my watch, and it was
just four o’clock. My first impulse was j
to go back into the house and murder
Cornes, but he stood at the window with
his wife, looking so sorry, that I just lit
my cigar aud walked off But lam lay
ing for him, now, and don’t you forget
it. No man can play me for a siioozer.
You just wait. Some day yon will hear
more abont this. There don’t any of
them get away with Rumsey. Why, I
killed a man at Rush Lake Junction,
once, for less than that. ” — Peek's Sun.
Fishing in Japan.
Fishing in the rivers and streams of
the Main I land is not considered as a
sport by the Japanese, but as a means
of livelihood, and then-fore “the gentle
angler ” will not receive muoh encour
agement from the brotherhood in the
Land of the Rising Sun. Salmon trout,
trout an ai (a small imt gn.®e ILL) aro
“ educated,” on some rivers, to taxe the
fly. The Japs work with very small
flies, fine tackle, slight bamboo rods, j
with wLich they are very successful. :
Altogether, however, the game will he |
found scarcely worth the candle on the
main land, but capital sp at with the
salmon trout can be obtained in several
streams near Satsuporo, iu Yezo, during
May and June, with a genuine British
fly. The most impo. tant export from
Yezo is in dried salmon, which are netted
in incredible quantities in various rivers
of the northern part of the island and in
the southern Kuriles; but sport in these
rivers among the dense masses of fish is
out of the question, even if tlie proprie
tors of the fishings would allow their fish
to be poached. The Japanese seaboard
is everywhere picturesque, and the seas
abound with fish, giving employment to
the crews of thousands of fishing-boats.
When sailing along Jlie coasts, numbers
of large black whales and sharks, both
large and small, will be seen, the latter
being caught by the fishermen, as their
fins are cou ted a delicacy and the skins
serve many use*. The hilts of all the
old swords are covered with white shark’s
skin. —The London Field.

“UON’T YOU KNOW YOUR OWN

A South Carolina man, named John
Dorsey, accompanied by his wife, whose
name was Sue, went out ’coon-hunting.
At last a ’coon was treed, and John said,
“ Sue, I’ll climb up the tree and shake
him down, and you club him.” So up
he went and began shaking; but instead
of dislodging the ’coon he shook himself
down, and his wife, perhaps not discov
ering the mistake, belabored him sound
ly, and only stopped wnen her unfortu
nate husband yelled out, "Don’t you
know your own Johnny?”
