O
I" THE BACHELOR'S COAT.
Old,coat, for some three or four seasons
We‘ve been jolly comrades, but-now
We‘part, old companion, forever;
To fate and the fashion I bow.
You‘d look very well at a dinner;
I‘d wear you with pride at a ball;
But I’m dressing tonight for a wedding—
My own—and you‘d not do at all.
You‘ve too many wine stains about you,
You‘re scented too much with cigars;
I‘Vhen thegaslight shines'fnll on your collar
It glistens like myriadé'stars.
That wouldn‘t look’w‘ell at my wedding,
They seem inapprOprlatethere;
Nell doesn't use “diamond powder;"
She tells me it ruins her hair.
There‘s a reprobate looseness about you
Should I wear you to—nightJ believe,
As I came with my bride" fmnr'the altar
You‘d laugh in your wickedold sleeve
When you felt there the tremulous pressure
Of her hand in its delicate glove
That is telling one slyly, yet proudly,
Her trust is as deep as her love.
So go to your grave in the wardrobe
And furnish a feast for the moth!
Neil‘s glove shall betray its sweet secret
To younger, more innocent cloth.
It‘s time to put on your successor;
It‘s made in a fashion quite new;
But, old friend, I‘m afraid it will never
Set as easily on me cs you!

A ORA—TEFUL OUTLAW.
The day I arrived in Adelaide, Australia,
I was ‘30 years old, and my pocket con-
tained a dollar for every year I had lived.
Luck was with me. On the second day
after my landing I hired to a sheep raiser
who had a ranch on the Murray river, near
its junction with the Darling, and on the
third we started off up the country. We
had two ox teams—that is, we had two
covered wagons, each loaded with supplies
and each drawn by three yoke of oxen.
It was about Christmas time, and the
weather was very sultry, and we aimed to
make only fifteen miles a day. We had a
fullweek’s journey before us, and nothing
of much interest happened until the fourth
day. We went into camp 8. little earlier
than usual on that afternoon, as one of the
wagons needgdflrepa‘irs. Our vehicles, after
coming to a halt, stood about twenty—five
feet apart. While I was building a fire to
£20k supper by one of the blacks went off
_ fer rabbits, and McCall took the other
with him to help cut and bring back a
lever with which to raise the wagon off its
wheels. I was thus left alone for a'few
minutes, and they had scarcely disappeared
from sight in the scrub when a man burst
out of the thicket on the other side and
came running up to me. His face and
hands were scratched and bleeding, his
clothing in tatters, his hat gone, and he
had such a wild and terrible look that I
should have run away from him had I been
able to do anything but stand and stare
with mouth wide open. McCall had told
me of escaped convicts and hard cases who
had taken to the bush to make a living by
robbing, and the man had come upon me
so suddenly that I was knocked out for the
moment.
“For God’s sake, young feller, give me a
bite to eat!” he said, as he stood before me.
“Don’t be afraid of me—I’m a sheep herder
who has been lost in the bush for three
days.”
I stepped to the wagon and handed him
a piece of bacon, some hard crackers and a
handful of tea, and then found voice to ask:
“But why not stop with us for the night?”
“Thanks, but I’m in a great hurry to get
back to my herd. I know where I am now,
and can get there in three hours. Any
matches?"
I gave him some, and he looked all
around to make sure that we were alone,
and then said:
“Young feller, do me a greater favor
still. Lend me your pistol and knife until
to morrow, when you will pass my station.
And, furthermore, be kind enough not to
mention to any one that I was here. Do
this and you shall never regret it.’ ’
I handed him knife and pistol, promised
what he asked, and he shock me by the
hand and disappeared in the scrub. Ten
minutes after he had gone I figured it out
that he was a bushman who had been hard
run by the police, but it was all the same
to me. He could have taken what he
wanted for all of me, as I felt perfectly
helpless, .lil-.l I was thankful that he had
come and gone. without knocking me on
thehead. Just as McCall (mine up with
the lever there was :l clatter of hoofs, and
I looked up to see five mounted men ride
int-0 camp. They were in the uniform of
the patrol and the appearance of the
.. ‘ , ‘ l .
horses ' “ ’1. men showed that they had had
a long maze of it.
““7011, Capt. \l'ljtc, what is it?” asked
llIcCall, who seemed to know every one'of
the five.
“Been after Ballard: Sam again,” replied i
' there and went into camp, saying that
the captain as he disarm-tinted.
“And lost him ?”
“ch; curse the luck! ch struck;.him
near Dobney’s yesterday morning, and he
led us a chase of fifty miles during the-da .,
We killed his horse about dark lasthnig t
and had him surrounded in the scrub, He
got out, however, and we did not get his
track until about noon today. lVe followed
it to the creek, two miles above, and there
lost it. Haven’t seen him here, of course?”
“I only wish we had.
of £500 on his head, I hear.”
“It has been increased to twice that».
Show me his body and I’ll make a rich
man of you.”
The patrol turned their horses loose and
had supper with us, furnishing a part from
their own rations. Then there was gen-
eral talk and story telling until about 10
o’clock, and then/all but one man turned
in for sleep. I had been introduced all
around, but had tafen very little part or
interest in the conversation, being sure,
from the first words spoken. by the captain,
that I had met Ballarat Sam and aided him
to make a fresh start. I thought at first
of telling the whole story to the
patrol, but they were serious, sober look-
.ing chaps, and I had a fear that they would
give me an awful raking down, even if
they did not lug) me off, and seek to have
me punished as aiding and abcttin g. I
remembered, too, that I had solemnly
promised Sam not to betray him, and so I
decided to keep a still tongue and let the
case work out as it would.
The patrol left us at daylight, but their
work for the next three days was thrown
away. They could get no trace of Sam.
We continued on up the country, and final-
ly arrived at the ranch, and for the next
:six months I was hard at work as a sheep
herder, and neither saw nor heard much of
the outside world. Then one day I was
called in off my range, which was about
'fiveianiles from Davidson’s house. I went
in to find a couple of visitors there—two
gentlemen who had lately arrived from
v England. One of them, a Mr. Cullen, was
‘from my own town of Shrewsbury, and
.the other, a Mr. Williams, was from Man-
chester. They had come to Australia to take
up a range and go into sheep'raising as an
.inventmens, neither of them intending to
remain, but to do the business through an
a am. They had purchased 2,000 sheep of

i
range above us on the Darling river. My
flock was to go, as also that of the herder
to the south of me, and we had been called
in to receive instructions. Both of us
herders were to enter into the employ of
the new arrivals, who had already secured
their land and built the house and stables
for the overseer. This man had come up
from Adelaide with them, and was a.
scotchman named McFarland. The other,
who was an Irish lad of 20, was O’Hara.
When we made ready to start the two
gentlemen were mounted on horses. The
overseer drove the bullock wagon, assisted
by a black, and O’Hara and myself were
on foot. On the thirdfinight, when at least
ten miles from any settlers,and more than
that from any regular ,highWay, we found
a natural valley in which .the sheep could
be herded, and ourown: camp was made in
a grove of ironwood, near a water hole.
We had finished supportand were grouped
about the fire when one of the dogs barked,
and we looked up to find ourselves covered
by five rifles. There were five strange,
hard looking men forming a half circle
about us, having crept up into the grove
so softly that the dogs had not heard them
until the last moment.
“Brail up or under you go!” shouted a
voice, and every one of us threw up his
hands.
“N ow, then, the first one of you who
makes a shy move will get a bullet! Close
in, boys!”
The five advanced to our feet, each keep—
ing his gun leveled, and when I could see
the man who had spoken I at once identi-
fied him as Ballarat Sam, the man whom
I had befriended months before. He rec-
ognized me almost as quickly, and taking
a step forward said.-
“Well, boy, you did me a good turn that
day, and I’ll not forget it. Move over to
the left. N ow, then, gents, Who are you?”
The gentlemen gave him their names
and told him their business. They were
pretty badly frightened, as I could see,
while the overseer trembled like a man in
a chill. As he was a big, strong fellow,
and had laughed at the idea of bushrang-
ers meddling with us, I could not under-
standhls fear until Sam spoke again.
“Better and better!” he said, as a fierce
look came into his eyes. “Boys, here’s
that overseer who set the patrol on our
track down below, and who wasn’t satis-
fied with that but must turn out to help
them. I think we have made a good haul
of it.”
All our arms were in the wagon, and we
were helpless to offer any resistance. The
first thing they did was to despoil the two
gentlemen and the overseer Of everything
of value, and then each one was lashed to
a tree. O’Hara was ordered to sit down
beside me, and the black took matters so
coolly that nothing was said to him. The
rangers signed tohim to turn to and get
supper, and he cheerfully obeyed. When
they had eaten and drunk and lighted their
pipes Sam turned to me with:
“And so you didn’t tell the police that
you gave me food and a. pistol?”
“NO, sir.”
“I know you didn’t, for I was that tired
out that I laid myself down for two hours
almost in your camp. Even when they
told youwho Iwas and that a price was
set upon myhead you hadn’t a word to
say_n
“No,.sir.”
“Well, you boys have nothing to fear.
IVe have nothing against you. After a
day or two you may go free.”
There was no sleep for anybody until
after midnight, and I don’t think the two
gentlemen or the overseer slept at all. I
know they were wide enough awake when
I opened my eyes in the morning. All of
us had a bite to eat after the outlaws had
finished, and then the wagon was robbet‘
of whatever they fancied, and hauled off
about thirty rods and upset in a deep
gully. The oxen were turned loose with
the sheep, and when we set out Sam and
two of the men rode the horses and the
rest of us went on foot. One outlaw on
foot went ahead and the others closed up
behind us, and the general direction was
to the north. Lyery mile took us into a
wilder and more unsettled country, and it
was so broken that I felt that I could not
get out even if turned free. ‘
At about 4 in the afternoon we matched
the rangers’ camp, which was in a wild
and desolate spot. I don’t think they in—
tended the gentlemen any harm from the
start, but that the overseer’s doom Was
scaled we all felt certain. He realized it,
too, for I observed that he was constantly
on the watch for an opportunity to bolt.
It came as we entered the camp. Realizing
that they meant to pay off the old score he
suddenly dashed for a thicket. He took
them 013 their guard, and if an accident
had not happened him he would have got
clear off. Half way to the thicket a stone
turned under his foot and throw himpand
as he got up one of the men shot him
down in his tracks. They left him lying
they had meant to torture him with fire
and that he had got out of it too easy.
The two gentlemen were very closely
guarded, but O’Hara and myself were al-
lowed to walk about as we pleased. They
had taken over £1,000 from the two and
bore them no grudgefbut for five days and
nights we were prisoners and in their
power.
On the morning of the sixth day, when
it was plain to be seen that they were off
for another adventure, the four of us were
turned loose and told to make our way
home. They headed us to the west, which
was the wrong way, and we traveled twen-
ty miles in that direction before we found
out the trick. We were nearly a week in the
scrub, living on roots and berries and de-
cayed wild fruit, before we reached a set-
tlement, and were. then all of thirty miles
from Davidson’s. We were a. sad looking
lot when we finally reached home, and
while lair. Cullen was taken with fever to
die in about ten days, Mr. Williams was
so broken up that he lived only long
enough to get down to the coast. A year
later Sam and two of that crowd were
caught, tried at Sandhurst, and O’Hara
and I saw them drop from the gallows.
They had asked us to identify Sam in
court, but we had excused ourselves. He
was a bad man, with the blood of many
victims on his hands, but he had given us
our lives and played fair.—New York Sun.

insect. W'hen first taken from the sea it

coral is found in large quantities in the
Mediterranean, where it flourishes, not far
below the surface of the. water. Both red
and rose colored coral are found, and in
some years the yield of the whole of this
sea has amounted in value to half a million
of dollars—J. N. Hallock in Christian at

American- Gentlemen.
An English tourist ‘was stopping at «one
of the Kansas City'hptels, and in' a'chan'ife
cdnvErsation-with air‘e‘porter, spoke of the
seeming inherent politeness "of the Ameri-
can gentlemen. As a classihe said,"thby
were the most polite men he had met
with in any quarter of the globe. Wher-
ever his travels took him he could always
tell an American by his affable manner. It
seemed, he said, as though every one was a
born courtier, and nowhere was it more
noticeable than in the cities of the old
world. In London the Americans could
be selected in any public hall or gallery,
for they always took their hats off no mat-
ter what room they entered, or if it
was too uncomfortable to remove head-
gear it needed but the presence of a
lady tocause the hats to be immediately
lifted. It was quite the contrary with the
Britishers; they never uncovered their
heads except under extraordinary circum-
stances.
“I was going dowu the street in this city
but the other day,” continued the
stranger, “when I saw a lady drOp her
purse. It had hardly reached the sidewalk
before a little street arab grabbed it,
touched the loser’s arm and, with hat in
hand, said: ‘Lady, here’s your pocket—
book.’ It is not only to the opposite sex
that this politeness extends, but it is re-
freshing to observe the courtesy with
which men treat each other. The Ameri-
cans are the greatest handshakers in the
world. Then I notice they touch their
hats to each other when passing on the
street. This certainly is a courteous, hos-
pitable nation.”-—-Kansas City Times.
Designs That Cannot Be Imitated.
The large and continually irQreasing de-
mand for paper which cannot be dupli-
cated for fraudulent purposes, as in the
case of printed certificates of stock, bonds,
drafts, notes, commercial paper, etc, has
led to the production of paper of special
and peculiardesigns of more or loss adapta-
tionto such a purpose.
One 'of the most recent and practicable
processes, as described, for securing this
result'consists in applying ink to a litho-
graphic plate, Of stone or other material,
placing another plate, which may also be
lithographic, face to face with the first
named, rubbing the faces of the two plates
together for a time and then taking them
apart.
The ink will be distributed in such a
manner by this rubbing action that a va-
riegated design is imparted to the plate.
Or in case the design thus produced is not
of a satisfactory character, the plates are
simply placed in contact again and the rub-
bing carried on until the desired character
of design is brought about. This being ac-
complished the ink is allowed to become
dry, the lithographic plate is subjected to
the usual treatment for lithographic pur-
poses, and the design is transferred to
the paper in the usual manner of printing
from lithographic plates.
According to the accounts given of this
process it is said to produce designs of
such a multitudinous variety in configura-
tion and shade that reproduction, except
from the original plate, is practically im-
possible. The impression can also be made
in any desired colon—Paper Mill. '
Several Good Suggestions.
There was the young man who was
heard to assure the elderly man to whom
he was presented that he was very glad,
indeed, to meet him. Now, no doubt he
was, for the elderly man was one of the
distinguished men of his state, and the
youngster was really very modest at heart,
and felt that the presentation honored him.
But would it not have been in better taste
to let the kindly assurances come from the
man of years and distinction, rather than
from the untutored youth who had noth-
ing to offer?
IVorse than he is the young fellow who
goes about among his women friends, as
long as he has any, apologizing profusely
for not having called upon them lately.
“Assuming that it is a matter of grave im—
portance to me whether he ever calls or
not,” said Genevieve, scornfully, a few days
ago when Tom Bigbee openly mourned his
negligence of her hospitalities. _
Not quite so bad, but still to be regretted,
is the young man or woman who tells you
that you look “just like a very dear friend.”
Who cares to have his individuality dupli-
cated, and why, if he must be told it,
should he not have the comfort of being
the one to whom the other is compared?
“Notice your sub-conscious self some time
and see how much more easily you take the
information when you are told that the
other fellow looks like you than you do
when you are only told that you look like
him.——_\T cw York Evening Sun.

Cost of Shaving in New York.
Lots of men get shaved in New York in
the five and ten cent barber shops who
would not care to have the fact generally
known. Their reasons are good ones. The
cheap shops uptown are mainly in the
hands of Italians, who are swift and good
shavers, and they are open from 7‘ in the
morning till 10 or 11 at night. The shops
are located on Third, Second, Eighth and
Ninth avenues, and if a man’s beard is
strong and his face not particularly tender
he can get shaved rapidly and comfortably
for five or ten cents. N o tip is expected.
At the hotel barber shops in the upper part
of the city the process of getting shaved is
rather an involved one. The shave costs
twenty cents, the barber always expects to
be tipped a dime. and the brush boy, who
is usually assiduous and persistent, strug-
gles for anything in the way of change that
happens to be lying around loose. To men
who shave every day this expense is of im-
portance—New York World. ,
Forty Pies in One Hour.
Absalom Green, a negro deacon of
Charleston, S. 0., ate forty pies in one hour.
The contest was for a wager. The pies
were mince, peach, apple and pumpkin.
Deacon Green had a big contract on his
hands when he undertook to eat the forty
pies, but he was equal to the emergency.
As pie after pie disappeared he rose to the
full height of the occasion and did not
stop till he had polished 01f the fortieth
pie. Then he asked for an oyster pie for a.
nightcap.
Of course the pies were not old fashioned
farm pies, two feet across and from two to
three inches thick, but each was a fair
sized city pie. Deacon Green experienced
no discomfort from his meal and had a
good appetite for breakfast next morning.

A $3,200 HOME.
It Is Not Highly Decorated or Expen-
sive, but Is Artistic.
Good taste and money do not always be-
long to the same individual. A man who
is coarse, aggressive and crude may have a
large sum of money. His assurance fre-
quently directs a vulgar ambition in the
building of an u 1y, loud, expensive house.
We have exhibi‘ ' more or less rank of
this kind in every town. The most expen-
sive house in a town is frequently pointed
out as the finest house. However, it ‘is
true that the most expensive house in a
community is rarely the most artistic.
A pretty house has its outgrowth from
refinement, fine discrimination, frogii a.
good conscience, or rather a conscience’fOr
good things. An artistic house gees be-
yond all this. It has in it the elementTof

ment. A thing to be artistic must convey
the impression of beauty and sense. In
order that there may be the conveyance
there must‘be the element of beauty and
sense back of it all. A pretty thing pleases
one; an artistic development instructs;
instruction is a pleasure, and thus it is
that the artistic has added to it the'ele-
ment of. larger intelligence. There are few
of our buildings which have had this kind
of thought added to them.
People have an idea that a house ingr-
der to be pretty must cost a good deal bf
money. The fact that a. house is att’rgétij’e
and at the same time expensive is merely La
coincidence. It is true that -manyf‘eipen-

FIRST STORY.
If a cheap cornice is to be designed for a
simple house the rafters may be out to
show a pretty pattern as well as an ugly
one. If there is to be a molding'for-the
gutter the forming machine (if the gutter
be of galvanized iron) may make a pretty
molding as well as one that is ugly. A
woodworking machine will make an artis-
tic molding with the samc speed as an ugly
one. The outlines of a cheap house Oran
expensive one may be the same under any
circumstances. The refinement, the artis-
tic rendering come in the handling of de
tails. The artist may take the sameout-
line that would go with a crude forinbf
structure, and through its refinement in
matters of detail he would add to it all
those qualities which separate beauty from
ugliness.
Say we take a little house which costs
$1,000 or $1,500. It has its gable in front,
and as a part of it there is some Scroll
work. Then there is a porch at theslde.
The general form might be ordinary
enough, but if these details are handled’b'y
a coarse, crude man the result will be
coarse and crude. If they are handled by
an artist there will be a fine, delicate, beau-
tiful house. A good combination of colors
on a building costs no more than lurid ug-
liness. It is simply a matter of sense.

SECOND STORY.
The house which is given herewith can
be made a very ugly building merely
through the addition of crude details. If
the little detail there is to it is carried out
in a spirit of refinement, if the color is
judiciously selected, and if all is harmoni-
ously treated the result will be artistic. It
will not be a. loud, screaming house, one
that is the blare of the trumpet, but it will
be a quiet, dignified structure, one that is
suited to quiet, dignified people.
The plan is self explanatory.
