Yankee Pluck.
The Yankee, and by the term I mean the
native of New England, has not only been
the pioneer in building up our western states,
but is the main stay and presiding genius in
the various great business enterprises that
have made us a noted people.
There is not a great railway line in the
west but that has its complement of Yankees,
usually they are found at the front, instruct—
ing the rank and file as to the conduct of the
business.
Among the great railway lines of the coun—
try,thc Chicago,Rock Island :8: Pacific stands
as a sort of synonym for a perfect road as -
well as an enterprising one.
Its advertisement is oftener seen than that
of any other line, and its “A man” had be—
come familiar to most every household in
the country. The best railroad in the world
' will not become a popular or favorite route
if the attention of the public is not called to
its merits; and how to do that, and com-1
mand a large traffic by the least outlay, is
the aim and study of the gentleman who is
denominated the General Passenger Agent.
Upon the Rock Island Road, this ofllco hap-
pens to be filled by a native Yankee, a boy
from the wooden nutmeg State, with all the
drive and tact that has made Connecticut
famous by the work of her sons. This
gentleman Mr. E. St. John, left the hills of
his native State a score of years ago, and
from the lowest round of the ladder, has
climbed his way upward, never goingbacka
stop, until to-dav he stands at the head of
his profession and a leader among a class of
men who strain every nerve to place their
lines in the front for popular favor. Sleep-
ing or waking,the modern General Passenger
Agent has but one thought, and that is
travel; and how to get themost of it at least
expense is the problem they all are trying to
solve.
When Mr. St. John took- the General
Passenger Agency, a little over three years
ago, ,he was confronted by an opposition as
sharp and active as any man ever encounter-
ed. His opponents were veterans and tried
men, who thinking they knew all the
“tricks in the trade,” immediately prepared
to swoop down on and annihilate the daring
man who proposed to contend with them for
supremacy. Mr. St. John surveyed the field
examined the arms of warfare, sounded the
bugle of the “Great Rock Island Route,”
ii'hd plunged into the fight. In a single year
the passenger earnings of his line increased
something like 20 per cent, ‘and from the
Pacific to the Atlantic the press of the
country was sounding the praises of his’road.
Soto speak, he carried the war into Africa,
and by his tactics established the 'fact that
there was something new passenger general-
ship ; and best of all he has forced his com-
petitors to use the very weapons with which
he made his first grand assault. It is a
difficult matter now to find a man that does
not know that the Chicago, Rock Island 85
Pacific Railway, is the great connecting
link between Chicago, Kansas City, Leaven-
worth, Atchinson, Council Bluffs and Omaha
and that the noted features of its line, a
perfect road—bed, ‘magn'ficent cars—day,
sleep and dining—give trtIvelers every com-
fort to be had upon a railway journey. Go

Probably an Immense Fraud.
Last Friday two small boys were detected
in Hartford in the act of stealing internal
revenue stamps of the denominations of
twenty-five cents each from beer kegs, and
their detection has resulted in the probable
discovery of‘the reason for 'the enormous
’ deficiencies in the accounts of that depart-
ment of the government ivhich have existed
for a long time. The boys when questioned
after their arrest stated- that they stole" the
stamps because their'teachers in a Roman
Catholic Brothers’ school gave them extra
credit for all they brought to them. A
teacher confessed that the story told by the
boys was true and said that the stamps were
sent to France where they were sold for the
support of a Roman Catholic orphan asylum. ,
He surrendered about $250 worth of stamps
and said that the brothers in other cities were
employed in the collection in the same way
and for the same purpose. The stamps are
so placed on liquor and beer barrels that the
act of tapping the barrels cancels them, but,
until the vessel is opened that they are in
such condition that they can be removed and
used again in distilleries and breweries and
consequently car. he: sold for but a small
per centage elf their face value to manufact-
urers of liquors, ‘who are willing to indorse
such dishonesty, if profitable, without being
dangerous to themselves. Hartford’s brewing
interests are practically nothing compared
with other cities, and if the amount of stamps
stolen elsewhere corresponds with that city,
it is very easy to see that the sum total would
be enormous.

The above remarks were received with much
applause. The entire circumstance is a
grateful proof of the advance of public sent-
iment upon the temperance question.
——.————-— .
The New York Independent thus defines
its position on the Temperance question :
“We hold that Dr. Crosby is teetotally wrong
in believing that signing the pledge is hu-
miliating, and that moderate drinking is a
proper and wise attitude for a Christian man
to take at the present day. “We hold that
total abstinence is the wisest and most prac-
tical method of conquering the great evil of
intemperance; and that the States has the right
and ought to pass and execute stringent laws
that will prevent the manufacture and sale
of intoxicating liquors to be used as a bever-
age.”
.———.———-—
A Pennsylvania paper says: In Potter
county, in this State. in which no licenses to
sell liquor have been granted since 1852,
fourteen out of twenty-six townships levied
no poortax whatever for the year 1879. The
jail is empty the greater part of the time.

some of the results of ,doing without rum

It is sometimes objected against the Sun—
day school that it bears no direct influence
on evangelization; in other words, that the
work of the Sunday school has been instruc-
tion, rather than conversation. Here are one
or two reports which tell their own story.
From Missouri a missionary of the American
Sunday School Union writes that fifty
conversions have been reported to him from
his personal work during last year, when he
organized and aided thirty—eight Sunday
schools, with 159 teachers and 1,484 scholars.
A missionary in Nebraska, reporting five
months’ work, says: ‘-At one of the schools
organized in that period, meetings have been
held, fifteen have confessed. conversion, and
a church: is organized; and in another in
which I am now holding meetings, seven
have expressed their desire to be Christians.
In meetings held by me, in connection with
two brethren, twenty have been converted;
and at Saturday evening meetings, which I
am carrying on for young men, five have
been converted, and the interest is growing.”
A Kansas missionary i‘eports twenty-four
new schools organized, with 129 teachers and
967 scholars; thirty schools aided, having
129 teachers and 1,106 scholars; 199 Bibles
and 281 Testalnenis distributed; 137 ad:
dresses delivered, and 728 families visited.
Many schools were visited repeatedly. Much
work was done in conventions, institutes,

about twenty thousand persons are engaged
in the trade, in- addition to those who bring
the fish to the market. Philadelphia, with a
population much larger than Boston,consumes
but 800,000 bushels yearly. The Baltimore
trade is somewhat peculiar, being mostly
in canned oysters, and at the present time it
is the largest single interest of the city.
This business sprung up from 1840 to 1845.
At that time there was but one packing es-
tablishment, now there are between fifty-
five and sixty houses, using from five thous-
and to seven thousand bushels a day, or
about 5,000,000 bushels during the season,
and the trade amounts to at least $6,000,000.

Prof. Watson believed that he saw such a
body during the eclipse of July 19, 1878.
The search is attended by great difiiculty
andliability to error, as it can only be con-
ducted during the exceedingly brief interval
of totality, which in the case of the next
eclipse amounts to less than two minutes at
any point on the earth's surface, while in
localities accessible to scientific expeditions
it is scarcely more than one minute.
The ncW'Municipal Laboratory of Paris,
bearing on health, is already accomplishing
good results. A large number of samples of
wine have been found to be adulterated.
Watered milk has‘bcen so- often found that
a panic among the milkmen has resulted.
French chocolate has been found to be adul-
terated with a' great variety of substances.
The laboratory is in charge of an able
chemist, with competent assistants. The
articles examined are those sent in by the
inhabitants of the city, and whenever adul-
terations are discovered the matter is imme-
diately placed in the hands of the police
for investigation and prosecution. A de—
partment of the laboratory is specially
fitted up for the examination of pork for
trichinae.
Dr. Ricoux maintains that while Spaniards,
Italians and French can be acclimatized in
Algeria, people from the North of Europe
cannot. This result, if well established, may
have a very important bearing upon the col- '
onization of Africa in the near future.
The story of John Duncan, of Alford,
England, the “weaver-botanist,” has been
received with the warmest sympathy by
scientists and scientific societies the world
over.“ Although only a poor weaver toiling
at the loom for his daily bread, he has, by a
lifetime of industry and earnest devotiouto
science, added very materially to the ho—
tanical knowledge of his country ; and quite
recently presented his large and very valu-
able herbarium to the University of Aber-
deen. His scientific labor, however, brought
him no pecuniary reward, and extreme old
age found him dependent for his daily ne-
cessities upon parochial relief. But during
.the past few months the worthy old botanist’s
needs have attracted much attention, and a
fund now being raised for his relief by
voluntary subscriptions has reached the
respectable proportions‘ of about £325. Her
Majesty the Queen . presented £10. The
money subscribed is to be placed in the
hands of a board of trustees, who will make
ample provision for Mr. Duncan during the

of'science'. The weaver-botanist is now in
his eighty-seventh year, ,and in very feeble
health. .
The attitude of Carlyle towards the
teachings of modern science is a matter in
which considerable interest is naturally felt.
It is known that he was for a long time
decidedly hostile to the theories of Darwin,
but, according to late statements of Prof.
Tyndall, his views were considerably modi-
fied during the :last few years of his life, so
that he even approved cordially of certain
writings advocating Darwin’s ideas while a
personal interview with the great naturalist
caused him to say that Charles Darwin was
'the most charming of men. .

M. Grehaust has proven in recent experi

exhaled by any one individual of an an-

use AN ADVENTURE wrru A poo.
. “Look here, my dear,” said Mr. Sp00pen—
dyke, as he led a huge and shaggy dog into
his wife’s room, “I’ve got a dog, a friend of
mine gave me. What do you think of him?"
“Good gracious l” exclaimed Mrs. Spoop-
endykc mounting a chair in dismay. “Is be
mad 2" ‘
“No, Mrs. Spoopendyke,” retorted her
husband, “he not only is not mad, but he
' ' isn’t a step-ladder, nor a bird’s eye view.
He’s a dog, and if you don’t get down out of!
that chair, he’ll probably bite your legjolI.”
Mrs. Spoopendyke sat down on her feet
and eyed the brute with some trepidation.
“Maybe he’s got the hydrophobia," she
suggested by the way of a hearty welcome.
“P’raps he has.” agreed Mr. Spoopendyke,
“but if he has he’s got it in his pocket.
Come here, doggee, doggee, doggee l” and
Mr. Spoopendyke snapped his fingers per—
suasively.
“Why don’t be come when you call him 3"
asked Mrs. Spoopendyke, deeply interested in
the proceedings. ‘
‘EBecause you make such a dod gasted noise
you scare him,”,exp19ined Mr. Spoopendyke.
“Come, doggee, doggee l”
“I don’t quite like the way his tongue
hangs out,” objected Mrs. Spoopendyke. “It
don't look natural.” .
“Maybe you don’t like the way his tail
hangs, either. P’raps your information about
dogs you only need a slat bottom and a
broken hinge to be a dog pound. ' Keep quiet,
nowt, while I teach him some tricks. Come
here, doggeel Sit up, sir i"
The dog stretched out his forelegs opened
a mouth like a folding bedstead and growled.
“What makes him do that i” asked Mrs.
Spoopendyke, sitting on the back of the chair
with her feet in the seat.
“Dodl dod gast it,” howled Mr. Spoopen-
endyke. “Who do you s’pose made him do
it ? Thinks he works on the wire P Got a
notion he goes by steam? He don’t. I tell
ye, he’s alive, and he, does it because that’s
the bent of his measly mind. What are ye
sitting up there for? Can’t ye see he don’t
like it? Now you sit still. Here doggee,
doggee, good doggee, sit up and beg!" and
Mr. Spoopendyke held up an admonitory
finger. '
“The dog eyed Mr. Spoopendyke with-
anything but an assuringglance,
“He’s hungry,” suggested Mrs. Spoopen -
dyke. “Dogs do just like that when they
want to be taken down in the yard and fed.”
"Of course you know,” grumbled Mr.
Spoopendyke. “All. you want is perfect ig.
norance on the part of the police to be a dog
fight. Got anything in the house for him to
eat ?"
“There’s some cold oyster stew,and apiece
of custard pie—"
“That’s it i" raved Mr. Spoopendyke.
“That’s what’s the matter with the dog.
He wants pie 1 You’ve got it. You only
need a committee and a fight over the pro-
ceeds to be a bench show. Where’s the
oysters ? Havn’t ye got some cold coffee ?
Givehim a lemon to stay his stomach i" and
Mr. Spoopendyke jumped straight up into
the air and landed on the dog. The dog
made for the open air with a bowl, and Mr.
Spoopendyke gathered up twelve baskets of
himself and looked after his prize.
“Never mind, dear,” said Mrs. Spoopen-
dyke soothingly, “he’ll come back.” '
“If he does 'l’ll kill him," shouted Mr.
Spoopendyke. “See what you’ve done?
You’ve made me lose my dog and torn my
trousers. Anything more about dogs you
don’t know 7 Got any more intelligence to
impart about dogs ? All you want is a bucket
of brandy around your neck and a snow
storm to be a monk of St. Bernard,” with
which logical conclusion Mr. Spoopendyke
began exploring his outlying districts for
possible bites; while his wife speculated upon
the salvation of the cold oysters and custard
pie by the sudden and eminently satisfactory
disaflection of the dog.

AT GREAT RISK or DEATH r0 ITSELF a SNAKE
ssts A omm’s LIFE.
Carson, (Nev.) Appeal.
“I want to tell you how my child’s life was
saved up in the mountains the other day,”
said an old farmer, who came into the Appeal
office yesterday. . “You don’t mind an item
with a snake in it, do you ‘1’" Hearing no re-
ply, the old man continued: “Last Tuesday I
was coming down from the lake with my
little girl, when I stopped my horse and got
out to get a drink at a spring, my bottle
having given out. . While I was drinking the
horse got frightened and dashed down the
road with the child in the wagon. I only
have twelve girls, sir, and wouldn't spoil the
set for worlds. - Well,I gave up the horse and'
child for lost, but I followed them up, and
presently found the horse right on the edge
of aprecipicc,at a dead standstill. He couldn’t-
move an inch. When I got closer I thought
that a strap had caught round' his fet lock
and one end had also caught rqmd a tree. I
went to pull on the strap," and I jumped
about ten feet, for bust me clear open if it
wasn’t a rattlesnake that was holding the
horse. He had wound his tail around the
horse’s leg and his neck was turned three
times around a sappling and his teeth were
fast in the wood. He was twelve feet long.
arr, for I measured him right then and there.
A few pounds more strain would have snapped
the snake clear in two. I got the horse away '
from the precipice. And I might as well tell
you the whole truth. The Snake wasn’t over
five feet long, for when I took the attain of!
he came right back to his natural size. 'You
know how elastic a snake is. The child is
four years old and wasn’t frightened in the
least. If you put this item in the weekly,
send me four copies—I want ’em for my rel
atives in the East.”
