Philadelphia Record. Some years ago I sat one evening read- ing a volume of Prescott’s histories in the library of a rich Wall street man who was a bank president at 30, when he came in and asked wo if I really eujoyed reading such books, He added that he found it impossible to interest himself in any of the hundreds of volumes he had pur- chased, though he had tried hard to do 87, *“When I take them up,” he said, ““I see nothing but rows of stock quota- tions on every page.” This gentleman died at 40, aud left a large fortune at the prico of his life—a fortune which his family has since dissipated. Had he had anything to occupy his mind outside of his oftice and when he left Wall street he might have lived to enjoy the pleasure of spending the million "he had made. In almost every case some special amuse- ment or point of relaxation is a sanitary necessity for the business man whose brain is racked by the concentrated preasure of his six hours of daily *‘street” labor, Jay Gould is @ diligent reader of books and a cultivetor of exo- tics. Vauderbilt never opens a book, but his horses and stables help to freshen up his intellect. John Jacob Astor climbs to the top of his house, and in secluded sanctum hammers away at somes mechanical inventions that are to revolu- tionize the industrial world-—that is to eay if they are every perfected. Yachts, | horses, aviaries, dogs, flie and fishing rods, or double-barreled shot-gun distract the attention of other men of wealth from the cares which riches bring in their train, and preserve the mental balance of their dovotees. One well-known broker keeps & select assortment of fowls in his back-yard, and he has no sooner entered his front door than he makes a bolt for the chicken-coop, where he fusses about until the repeated clamor of a starv ing household flealls him to dinner, His neighbors complain of the crowing of his pet roosters, but ho has & permit which protects his feath- erod friends, and he defies criticism. Be- fore he kept fowls his nights were almost sleepless; now he snores all night like a farmer. It is the same story all around. *1f I did not do this or that Ishould die,” say those business-worn men who have returned to the loves and likings of their early life for relief against “‘black cave.” By tho way, the contingent of Wall atreet fishermen has rotarned from the hist two or threo days’ sport among the trout brooks of Long island with immoasure- able disgust ou their faces. In tho tecth of a blinding snow-storm, and in some cases after wading through respectable drift, they tound the fish tvo sluggish to make a fight, though content to be caught, provided the fly were dropped squarely befora their jaws. Their two duays’ di- version will last them for some weeks. | ——— E FREMONT, The Brilllant Witc of' & Famous i neer. I had atalk with the famous Jessio Fremont the other day, writes a Wash- ington correspondent to The Lewiston Journal. It is very easy tosee at a glance that she was a very handsomo girl. H good looks, however, have not entirely deparced. Rather, beauty has changed to stateliness, She is large and stout, and combs her luxuriant hair straight back. She is toall appearances as happy and contented as when a girl, Notwith- standing age has changed her looks, I am told it has not changed her manners in the least. She still graces the drawing room with as much ease and composure as ever, and talks with the same brilli- ancy. She is a daughter of the noted Thomas Benton, of Missouri, for many years United States senator from that state. She met Fremont in Washington, where- upon the latter became frantically in love with her. Her father and mother were very much averse to the match, and did everything to break it. The young couple, however, were determined, and were married by a Catholic priest, no Protestant clergyman consenting to per- form the ceremony. Althoughsenator and Mrs, Benton were very angry, a recon- ciliation soon took place. Mrs. Fremont was a woman of remark- able courage and fortitude. She joined her husband 1a many of his journeys in the west until they finally settled in Cali- fornia. In the carly days of California a struggle ensued as to whether slavery should exist there. The pro-slavery party, go the story goes, labored with the women of tae state, telling them that un- less they kept slaves they would be slaves themselves. Mrs, Fremont wasapproach- ed, whereupon she stoutly replied; *‘No! Rather than have slavery in California, I'll do my own work. have done it 8o far, and I'll do it stil Slavery wasn't recognized in California after that. In the summer of 1856 KFremont was chosen as the republican nominee for president. A glance at the files of news- papers of the time convinces one of the bitterness of the contest, and of the im- portant part Mrs. Fremount played in the campaign. Her name was in everybody's mouth, and was the subject of campaign songs, But Gen. Fremont was defeated, and Jessio never entered the white house as the president’s wife. *‘Yes, we Lave lived in New York ever since the war,” she said, ‘“‘and ave as happy as ever in our old age. The gene- ral 1s as young and vigorous as any of you, if he is 71 years of age. He has never worn glasses in his life—never had a tooth filled—and very seldom has had anything to do with doctors No, of course, he does no business to speak of, but lives a very quiet and happy life.” Should Mr., and Mrs. Fremont be spared two or three years longer, they will cele- brate their golden wedding. THE SENATE RESTAURANT, | | What Our National Statesmen Eat, and How, The Washington correspondent of The Troy Times writes: The senate res- taurant has become the club room of the capitol. With a colored man in charge, the senators now get the beast cooking and attendance in town. Representatives 20 their to lunch and senators boast of it outside. I was talking to John Francis the other day. He is the colored man to whom Mr. Edmunds gave the restaurant, with 86,000 or $7,000 a year. *‘Do the senators genersily spend much money with you!” 1 ask him. “No,” he went on, ‘*as a rule they come down here and eat crackers and milk. My milk is most all cream and they like it. Most of them are here each «ay, although a few have their lunch sent to a committee room, Senator Morrill always eats crakers and milk, so do Senators Hoar and In. galls, Mr. Platt always drinke tea. Senator Vest likes to stand up to the oyster counter and take a dozen on the shell with some ale. Perry Belmont often here eating raw oysters. Gen, Lo gan is very abstemiou Mr., Aldrich generally cats a steak, But the best of our custom is from the outsiders. They eat more and higher-priced dinners than the senators. Generous! Well, not many of them. They do not come down to the waiters very handsomely. The {:ourunt men are the most liberal. Mr. Frye is i ud always has a pleasant word for the waiters; so does Mr, Garland. Gov, Vance has his pockets full of dimes, and throws them out liberally. Gen. Logan, when he feels good, is flburl but the tips generally come more from outsiders than senators.” A large closet full of brandy and wines stands invitingly in plain view, notwithstanding the new rule that no intoxicating liquors shall be al- lowed. They are sold to any one who calls, but My Blair's wild remark that the restaurant is the ‘' tional groggery" was a good way from the truth, Very few senators drink to exces: Some of them have a bottle or two in their committee-rooms. Mr, Hale enter- tains his friends occasionally with wine- nrreadu‘ Pendleton always has some champsgne and makes a point to hand it around freoly when the democratic caucus meets, ho being chairman, Up in the back room of the senate committee on &nnun Mr, Anthony has somethi n store. You will often see him an pleased expression. Judge Thurman was M. Edmund's panion of old, When they went out together the senator blink- ed sympathetically, Don Cameron in- variably took wine with his nice little lunch, served daintily in his private room. Fryo and Blair ate the only teetotaters in the upper house. But drunkenness is never seon in these days. It is now in “‘bad form,” — BRIA AN BOSTACY, An O1d Toper Describes His Sensa- tions When brunk, “How does a man feel when he is drank?” an old toper was asked the other dvy. He stopped a moment munching his bic of cheose sandwich, whilo he was Jit- erally soaking in whisky, and he cast a withering look of disdain at the queriest. “Well, T'll bo blowed!" he finally gasped. “You—a newspaper man—ask how & man feels when he was drunk? You mean it—never wore drunk yourself —nover! Well, then, I suppose 1'll have to tell you. But it's such a long while ago since I went on my first drunk and things have changed s much sinco thie Besdes peoplo don't all feel alike when they're tight, nor yet whisky don’t produce the same drunk that champagne does, and beer is different again, Uil tell you how 1 feel, though. 1 feel asif I owned the earth and all there is in it, on it, and around it, the heavens, the stars, and several undis- covered worlds, Then 1 drink some more, and invite the crowd to follow my example.

March 19, 1883, One week ago, while engaged in my duties as Assistant Postmaster, I was taken with a violent pain or kink in my back; it was so painful I could hardly breathe, and I acaed ail over my body. I immediately sent for an ArLcock’s Porous Praster and applied it over the seat of pan; in twenty minutes 1 was en- tirely relieved and cured. I have used Allcock’s Plasters in my family for over twenty years, and have found them won- derfully effective 1 curing coughe, colds and pulmonary difficulties, They are a perfect medicine chest; they cure without the slightest pain or inconvenience, never leaving a mark on the skin, THOS.

Nearly Korty Years on the Footboard of a Lcomotive, Philadelphia Timen. The oldest railroad locomotive engineer in the United States is Lawson Lufkins, generallyjcalled ‘* 'Squire Lufkins,” of the Philadelphia & Reading railrond. He is as tall as Don Quixote and almost as thin, but his career und character are the reverse of Quixote. For nearly forty years the rider of tho swiftest of steeds and in constant danger, he has never met with a windmill or other serious accident, and, so far from roaming in search of adventures, he has devoted his whole thought and energy calmly to his plain duty—to the carrying of his passengers safely to their destination and on time. “‘Mine has been a very simple life,” said the 'squire last night, *‘and when I look back over the thirty-seven years 1 ran a swift passenger engine it makes me wonder that so few things stand out. It's all a dead level now. I began engineering when 1 was just 20 years uld, which was pretty young, and you see I needn't bo tottering on the edge of the grave to be the oldest engineer. When- I began 1 hadn't served an apprenticeship as a fireman, but I was a welltrained machin- ist. Locomotives wore my delight to study, and when I got one to run myself my ambition was realized. I just settled aown to my lifo work thenand there, At first T was bothersd by people wondering at such a boy engineer, but I attended strictly to my work, and soon 1 knew I was w1l right and safe, and the ofticers came to the same opinion before long. 1 loved my work, and I never let my mind run off the track. My engine and my duty were more to me than anything else I could think about. When an engineer's mind goes off on side-trips his train is apt to make a violent attempt to fol- low.” Didn't you feel the effacts of the work and responsibility on your nerves?”’ I can'tsay 1 did. T've read of doc- tors saying that no man can stand tho physical and mental strain of running an engine more than twenty-five years. I dou’t believe this is go. If itis, L am a great excoption 1 am just ascapabe to-day as I ever was in my life, and I thiuk I could go on and complete my second twenty-five years, Of course the engino shook e up, and there was noise and exposure all the time, but 1 got used to these things. They got to be as mat- ter of fact as eating. As to the sense of responsibility, I telt it, of course, but it sustainnd me instead of breaking me down. Why, it is the soul of engiueer- ing, this thought that one is taking care of the lives of others. It 1 didn't have it I wouldn’t run an engme, It would be like running a church without any God. And I would not work on any railroad if the safety of the passengers was not the very first thought in every department, from president down.” ——— THE TERROR OF KISSIMMEL Holding Sway in Florida Like a Fierce Robber Kuoight of Old Brought to Bay ot Last, A special from Kissimmee City, Fla., to The Jasksonville Evening Herald gives the graphic details of a thrilling adven ture resulting in the capture of the most icturesque ruflian of the south. Ralph vV:lliuulmu has been for many years the wealthiest and most desperato cattle-king of south Florida, His career has been wild an checkered, but always success- ful, His wealth is asid to be enormous Those who know state that he has two huge chests full of shiving Spanish doub- loons hidden way in one of his fortified cabius in the wildernes He is the terror of the region about Kissunmee. Fiye bloody murde Bre | pw CNEPITA Mr. Edmunds coming from there with a | on his hands, and there is a standing re- | fyl Ve ward of 82,600 for his delivery to the | authorities dead or alive. Of tremendous | stature and strength, of dauntless cour- |age, superb presence, and princely libe- rality to his favorites, ho has been for years thoe wonder of the wilderness. | Yesterday Ralph Willingham and his | handsome wife boarded the trading steamor Glertrude, Capt. Pearce, of the Kissimmee river and contributing lakes, Capt. Pearco, who is also a man of iron courage, treated the desperado with civility, and the two sat down to dinner. Willingham suddenly turned to his host and said: ““What right have you to fit up and run a trading steamer on this river {anyhow!” YWhy can't I do it!” the captain good- humoredly replied. He then went on to say that he had been permitted to do so in peace for a long time, and to end the pending controversy ho rose from the table and stepped out of the saloon. He was about to give some directions to one of the men below, when turning suddenly he boheld the desperado of the Kissimme standing grimly over him with a huge bowie-knifo raised with deadly intent. Capt. Pearco evaded the deadly thrust of the knife and grappled the sinewy pirate, who would no doubt have over- come him but for the prompt and gallant interference of soveral members of the crow. After a bloody struggio, in which two of the steamer's men were wounded, Willingham, covered with blood and wouuds, was dissrmod and bound hand and foot. He is said to have faced his captors with a grand scorn and defi- auce that even his defeat could not sub- due, In tho lower part of the boat, asloep, was Redding Parker, bro‘he law of Willingham and a desperacofhimself, As soon as Parker learned of Williniham's misfortune he made a desperats effurt to effect his reloase, and it required another fierce strugele before Parker, too, was subdued. Parker then demanded to be allowed to get off the boat, as he was not an outlaw, but permission was refused. Watching his opportunity, he evaded his guard, suddenly plunged into the Kissim- oo, swam ashore, and escaped into the swamp, ‘Tne Gertrude put on extra steam and made good time to Kissimmee, where Sapt.
