A LESSON IN POLITENESS.
An Interesting Incident of_ Elevated
Travel in New York City. ‘
The temptation” to correct the man-
ners Of children who are not taught by
their parents to conduct- themselves
properly in public places is very
strong. A gentleman yielded to this
temptation on a. New York elevated car
recently under circumstances which
may be pardoned to him, though un-
doubtedly he exceeded his right.
He was sitting, as he felates in the
New York ~Press, in a. car in which all
the seats were taken. A stout woman,
flaslu'ly dressed, sat Opposite him, hold-
ing a small boy between her knees.
As the car stopped, a person who sat
next the gentleman got out, and a.
working girl, ' carrying a, big bundle,
came in, and started to take the vacant
seat.
But the woman‘vvith the boy was too
quick for her. She pushed the boy
quickly into the seat, just before the
girl could take it, and looked compla-
cently about her, as if she could not
see the girl at all.
The gentleman might then have risen
and. given the girl his own seat, but he
.did not. He put his arm around the
boy’s waist, lifted him to the floor, and
said:‘ ,
“Now take Off your hat, and offer
your seat to that young lady.”
The boy ran to his mother’s knees.
The girl hesitated, but took the seat as
the gentleman beckoned her to it.
And then the mother of the child burst
out into a. violent denunciation of the
man’s “ungentlemanly” conduct.
“And let me tell you, sir,” she said,
finally; l“don’t you ever meddle .with
people’s children again!”
“Madam,” responded the gentleman,
“if mothers do not train their sons to
grow "up as gentlemen, some one else
should. How do you expect that boy
to respect his mother’s sex, when his
mother sets him the example of de-
spising other women’s claims to
courtesy?”

JUSTICE JACKSON’S TERM.
Next to the Shortest in the History of the
United States Supreme Court. ,
Justice Jackson’s service Of two years
on the supreme bench of ' the . United
States is.one of the shortest terms in
the , history Of the court. The , only
shorter term was that Of~Justice Har-
rison, who was appointed in 1789 and
resigned the Office in the same year to
become chancellor of his native state,
Maryland. Chief Justice Rutledge,the
only man to be twice appointed to the
supreme bench, says the New York
Sun, resigned the Office of associate
justice in 1791, after two years Of serv-
ice, to become chief justice of South
Carolina. He was. named chief justice
of the United States supreme court in
1795, and presided one term, but the
nomination was rejected by the senate
because it was discovered that his mind
had become impaired. Associate Jus-
tice Trimble, of Kentucky, died in 1828
after two years of service. These are
the only justices whose terms have
been as short as that of Justice J ack-
son, save one Of his associates, still
upon the bench. _
The longest terms were those of Chief
Justices Marshall and Story, each of
whom served thirty-four years. Five
others served over thirty years, five be-
tween twenty-five and thirty, six be-
tween twenty and twenty-five, nine
between fifteen and twenty, six be-
tween ten and , fifteen, seventeen be-
tween five and ten, and eight less than
five years. Some Of those included in
this summary are still upon the bench.
Justice Field, appointed in 1863, is the
oldest in point of service of the present
bench, and his term approaches the
the longest in the history of the court.
RATHER ABSENT MINDED.
The Professor Thought the Under Pie
Crust Was a Little Tough.
A certain one of our scientific men—cf
man whom you can’t help knowing if
you have had much business with the
Smithsonian institution—has the repu-
tation of being extremely absent-mind-
ed, says the Washington Star. I don’t
believe most Of the stories they tell
about him, but here is one on whose
truthI am willing to stake my best
bonnet. He’s a. married man, this scien-
tific person, and his wife is a. good
housekeeper. She is an excellent cook,
too, but she prefers to'buy most of her
pastry ready made. She bought a pie
the other day. a juicy pie, 3. blueberry
pie, in fact. All day long it lay on the
pantry shelf in one of those thin paste-
board plates bakery pies always come
in. Its juice gradualy soaked through
the lower crust—you know how blue-
berry-Epics do—and when the lady of
the house—that is to say, the cook—
put it on the dinner table, the paste-
board plate went with it. The scien-
tific vman’s-wife cut the pie, and to
make the handling of it easier, cut the
pasteboard plate, too. The scientific
man took his slice of pie and ate it med-
itatively. 'His wife kept silence. He
ate the top crust and the blueberries.
and the bottom crust and the paste-
board slice till he had eaten about
half. Then his look Of inward contem-
plation gradually changed to surprise,
and then to mild distress.
“My dear,” he said, looking up, “isn’t
this under crust just a little tough?”
':'.T.T.‘."'»"' i SPLICED A SNAKE.
Result of a Surgeon's Experiment
‘3. ln Grafting Reptiles.
Dr. G. A. Countryman, Of Mellette, S.
D., possesses a. combination snake, says
the Minneapolis Journal. It is half
garter and half sand snake, and this
peculiar composition was made possible
by a. surgical operation performed by a
doctor. His attention was directed to
snakes from observing that when a.
snake is killed its tail appears to live
until the sun goes down, when life
ceases. It is thought'by many that
this is owing to the nerves, but the doc-
tor was somewhat skeptical on this
point. Being a. surgeon he dissected
several and made some interesting dis-
coveries. He found that in both the
sand and garter snakes the spinal col-
umn extended little more than half the.
length of the body. Knowing that it
Singular
was possible to graft flesh, this led him
to chloroform them and try splicing
them, making the splice, of course, be-
low the end Of the spinal column. He
made four unsuccessful attempts, but
succeeded in the fifth. The grafted
snake he has now is apparently in good
health and the joined parts are per-
fectly knitted together. Its body is of
the sand snake and its tail is a. garter
snake’s. The sand snake is spotted
and looks exactly like 'a. rattlesnake,
while the garter snake is striped and
its color is Of the difierent shades of
green and yellow. Both Of these varie-
ties of snakes are harmless and com- .
mon throughout the slate. ’
Stories About Cats.
The cat is a much maligned animal.
Because it creeps softly after its prey,
it is called sly; because it is domestic in
its tastes and stays , at home, we'say it
is ungrateful, .and when it resents
abuse with a scratching, we maintain
that it-is treacherous. Yet cats have
been knowu to die of grief- when their
mistress died, and in many ways they
exhibit intelligent traits for which we
rarely give them credit.
lad tells of the remarkable sagacity
Of apet-cat which he owns. The fe-
line has a great fondness for the flesh
of birds, and in order to make her
quest for the same successful employ
a. stratagem. Evidently understand-
ing that birds like angleworms, she
collects a. number 'and buries them in
the ground. She then hides near by,
and when the birds alight'to secure
their coveted morsel‘ she springs'from
her. concealment and 'pounces upon
them. Many a. bird thus falls aprey to

N0 scanner GOLD EXPORTS.
They Come Too Late to Cause Apprehen-
sion In New -York—-—Small Number
of Failures In May—The Out-
look In Various Trades.
NEW YORK, .: June 6. -—Dun’s weekly
trade review says: . .
It is highly suggestive that, with - as
little helpas there is now from new busi-
ness. markets are so nearly maintained.
Summer is close at hand, and with new
crops promising well and old stocks large
it is“ no wonderthat the farm products are
cheap.
Waiting for the rush of business seen last
year and are generally holding on with
much confidence. It is so late that gold
DUNfsiiiiiiiwiw. '
The factories and mills are still-
exports no longer alarm. The certain de- _
feat of the bond prohibiting bill has de-
prived its passage by the senate of hurtful
influence. . ,.
Exports More Liberal.
Decline in wheat and cotton has helped
marketing the surplus, so that exports
have been more liberal, from Atlantic
ports 2,227,411 bushels wheat'for' the
week, flour included, against 1,555,308
last year, while western receipts, 2,006,-‘
475 bushels against 1, 726, 457 last year,
increased much less than heretofore. Esti-
mates entitied to most confidence-point to
'a probable yield of 500,000,000 .bushels
wheat. which with the stock carried over
will clear away any danger of oppressive
charges for breadstufi‘s.’ Estimates of cot-
ton acreage by the best authorities indi-
cate a crop of 10,000,000 bales if weather
is favorable. The movement of cattle at
the west is very heavy, at Chicago 10 per
cent greater than last year thus far, and
lard makes a new low record, with enor-
mous stocks accumulated.
Even fair crops will mean better busi-
ness for railroads, which report earnings
for May thus far only 2.5 per cent more
than last year, but 8.3 per cent less than
in 1893. Nearly all classes. of roads show
gain over last year. Stocks have yielded
only a trifle, railroads 15 cents and trusts
45 cents on the share, and there is evi-
dently a feeling that scares of all sorts
may be profitably ignored. '
Boots and Shoes Active.
Government revenue in May was disap-
pointing, although the deficit was not lar-
ger than in other months and was mainly
due to shrinkage in imports of foreign
goods. which were 10 per cent less at New
York than last year, while exports were ‘
14 per cent' larger than last year. These
changes promise smaller balances to be
settled by gold shipments, and with good
crops another month will bring a better
financial outlook. Excitement regarding
the gold outgo has ceased. and large re-
ceipts of currency from the interior pre-
vent any stringency here- .
The boot and shoe industry is still the
most active, shipping “from the east in
number of cases more than-in any previous
year at this season, and the factories are.
still well employed, although new orders-
bave much diminished, and the demand
of most manufacturers for slightly ‘higher -
prices does not encourage the additional.
business which they are- in fact not anx-
ious at this time to take, with pricesof
leather advanced 1 "cent per pound. Hides
belt with heavy Western receipts and yet
are slightly higher at Chicago. .
Iron-and Steel.
The hardest problem of the day is .
whether iron and steel prices can be main-
tained as they have been. during the past
week. ' The nail associations have failed
thus far to win over competitors who un-
dersell them and are able to manufacture
75,000 kegs against every 100,000 by con-
cerns in the combination. The bar asso-
ciation asks for iron more than the selling
price of steel bars. Open billets are more
freely sold at Pittsburg below the prices
asked for bessemer, and middlemen are.
still selling bessemer billets about $1 be-
low the price iixed by the pool. Natu-
rally the doubt regarding maintenance of
prices greatly checks the demand for the
present, but belief that a much larger de-
mand will not long be delayed prevents
considerable decline. ‘
Cotton and Wool.
The textile manufacturers are waiting,
with some cotton goods reduced still fur-
ther in price and ginghams to the lowest
point over knovVn, while no increase ap-
pears in the demand. Sales or wool still
fall below half the quantity required for a
full consumption, and prices have further
declined, the average Of quotations by
Coatcs Bros. falling below 13 cents for the
first time, making the fall 47.8 per cent
in five years. Clay worsteds and mixtures.
fancy cassimeres and fancy worsteds are a
shade lower. ' .
Failures in May were smaller than in
any other month this year because manu-
facturing failures were smaller, notwith-
standing heavy average liabilities in ma-
chinery, woolens, chemicals and leather.
Failures for the week were 234 in the
United States against 195 last year and
29 in Canada against 25 last year.
