Oentlemui Jim. In the diamond shaft norked Gentlenaan Jim, Handsome of face, stout of limb, Coarso in dress, but something in him. Whether down in the ooal mine, solid and grim, Or wandering alone in holiday time. Won the love and respect of all in that clime. He had no sweetheart, he had no wife. Borne mighty sorrow had dimmed hia lifeâ€" His -jarnings, hardly won and small. Were at the orphans' and widows' callâ€" Of those who had perislied in shaft or winze. He was the friend of all living things. And moving along in those toilsome ways. He wore the demeanor of gentler days. In April last, when the mine fell in. Beneath tlio tiioljers stood Gentleman Jim ; With giant grasp he tlung two of the boys Clear out of danger. With deafeiiiug noise The shaft gave way on every side ; The boys wero safe, but Jim â€" ho diedâ€" Died as men die, and will die ogam. Giving tbuir lives for their foUow-meu. When rocks and timbers were cleared away. And Jim borne up to the liglit of day. They took from his bosoin, stained with blood. Two withered leaves and a withered bud Pinned on a card. '* Toute-u-toiâ€" Marie " Was written beneath them ; beneath it he. On his heart lor years had worn, iHad written, " All witheredâ€" except the thorn.' What life romance, what story of wrong. This man had locked up in his soul so long None who loved him may ever know ; But the tale of his glorious, chivalric deed Shall not perish as long as men hold this creedâ€" That the hero whoso blood for his kind is shod Wins a deathless fame and an honored bedâ€" A moHumunt grander than sculptor e'er gave. In the glory that hallows the martyr's grave. â€"Daniel O'Comwll. ItrickH of lllowu GlfkAS. We have already mentioned, saya a writer iu La Comtnictiua ilodeme, the many applicationa o{ glaiia for building purposes, aa exhibited at the last e.xhibition of decorative arts. Thanks to the decrease In price of coal, and to the recent improve- ments in i;Ub3 manufacture, the product is classed at the present time among the oaaal material the architect employs. It ia well knoNvu that the* procosa of glass making is by melting or blowing. Sbeeta of polished glass from M to 30 milli- meters in thickness are chiefly used for casings of walls in dining-rooms, linings of bath-rooms, water-closets or rucesses reijuiring frequent cleaning. They answer the same purpose as pottery tiles or enam- elled bricks. Koagh glass of greater thick- ness is employed as tiagging for pavements for the purpose of forming a luminous flooring. It is then set by means of putty for cement in iron settings. Blown, in place of melted, glass can be advantageously used when lightness and transparency is preferred to strength, when, for instance, it is desired to use glass in vertical wallsor ceilings with the object of lighting lower stories or basements. As applications of the kind have been rare, we are pleased when we have the opportunity of recording them. One of the latest instances of the employment of glass in thia manner has been made by M, Falconnier, architect of Nyon, Switzerland, who lias used glass in the form of hollow bricks. These bricks are cubes of 10 or 15 centimetres on the aide, set in grooved iron casings. The joints in cement or plaster are retained in grooving hollow around the circumference cf each piece, and held by putty. The metallic lattice work, very useful iu a wall where strength is required, may be dis- carded where the object is strictly decora- tive. One of the principali)uaUtiea of these hollow briok is the isolation by the enclosed air whicl: can be replaced by other matter ' leaa conductive of heat and sound. Besides, with the hollow glass various decorative effects can be obtained without the neces- sity of resorting to grinding or enamelling, as it is very easy to coat the inner faces with oil colors. M. Falconnier has also applied thoao hcUow bricks at Lausanne, in attic decorations and iu the constraotion of balusters and verandas. How â-  Bulldlnii; Firm SucceedH. A Nova Scotia building firm has recently informed a Halifax reporter that the secrets of their success are these : " They know their business, seek it, attend to it, from ii o'clock in the morning until sundown guide and control it and don't let it drift. Neither do they waste time talking politics. They look after their workmen, know bow much work a man should do in a day, see that he does it and pay him for doing it. A poor workman, iu their experience, is dear at 50 cents a day. They And it good policy to procure the best men, got the most work out of them and pay the best wages. A man in their employ is paid what he is worth. Any man who does a fair day's work for the Arm gets a fair day's pay. 'They don't believe in hiring men to kill time, nor do they calculate to employ men for more than one day who only work when the boss is around." The employer does a service to hia men when he demands a full day's work. Good men gladly give it. By inaisting upon such plain truths aa are inculcated above, the tendency is to make la/.y workmen into active ones, to lift careleaa or indifferent workmen into morala and manhood, to teach them to reapeot themselvoa and to earn higher wagea. There ia a " chunk " of aonnd busineaa philoaophy in these words of the firm, and thoy are suited for localities other than Nova Scotia. Ia Dismal, Doleful Doubt. When the shower came up yesterday a certain pedestrian whose jaw showe3 great determination took refuge in a doorway on Monroe avenue. He allowed numbers of pedestrians with umbrellas to pass him ; but pretty soon the right sort of a man came along and he stepped boldly out, ex- tended bis arm and said : " .\b, you thiof, but I have run you down at last I " Give me my property 1" " Yes â€" ah â€" yes 1" stammered the other, as be sur- rendered it. The man with the prominent jaw walked up the avenue as if nothing had happened, while the other skipped for the vacated doorway. " Was it his?" queried one who bad witneaed the performance. " That's what worrioa me," replied the other ; " I'm trying to think where I stole it from 1" â€" Detroit JtWee I'reM. It is stated that the Erie Railway Com- pany will put up in all its stations signs reading : " Kiaaing on the platform strictly prohibited." Thia is a step in the right direction. Any anoh effort to make travel less hazardous should meet with the un- .qualifled approval of the whole country. The large number of casualties lately has made many somewhat timid about getting on railroad oars, and it ia cheering to see the Erie trying to allay these fears. â€" Mbany Argut. • ? TIBKD OF BEING A FCQITIYE. Paterson's Deraultlng Bx-Clty Clerk Be- torns After an Absence of Four Tears. " Will " Hague, who about this time in the year 1884 startled the city of Paterson, N. J., of which he was clerk at the time, by his disappearance, a defaulter to a con- siderable amount, astonished that place again yesterday by voluntarily returning and giving himself up to await trial for his offences. Only two or three men in the city knew that he was coming back, and he arrived on a train of the Susque- hanna Railroad from New York, got off at a suburban atatioa and was driven to the county jail. On the night of July 3rd, 1884, some members of the Paterson Board of Alder- men discovered that Hague was a fugitive and probably a defaulter. He had not been seen aronnd the City Hall for several days before, but this did not excite suspicion at first, as his work for the People's Brewing Company, of which he was Secretary, Treasurer and chief business man, aa well as one of the stockholders, frequently took him away from bis desk at the City Hall for considerable periods. It afterwards transpired that the other two members of the brewing company, Henry Schnatz and Joseph Hargreaves, found, as they alleged, that Hague had misappropriated funds of the concern to the extent of 312,000 to 815,000, and it was this revelation that led to Hague's flight. It was generally sup- posed that ho used the city's money and sank it in the brewing company. The con- cern soon afterward was wound up. An investigation showed that Hague's defalcation to the city was a little over S4,000 ; of which nearly $2,500 had been taken within a few weeks. The money stolen was that received for license fees, the City Clerk at that time holding also the office of register of licenses. The Board of Aldermen removed Hague, and the city offered a reward of $500 for hia apprehen- sion, to which Mayor Barnert added a personal offer of J250. Hague was a man ef pleasing address and an able politician. He was one of the most popular men in the city, and bad beenro-electedtotheolUus of City Clerk for several successive terms by the Board of Aldermen unanimously. He has a wife and family. It was at first supposed that he had gone to England, his native country, but he tied to Canada. Ho lived for a while iu Loudon, Ont., and later settled iu Toronto, where ho be- came prosperous under the assnmed name of Thomas Lees, organized an assurance association of which he was President, and did well in the real estate business with two of his brothers-in-law. His bondsmen were held for his defalcation, and in the Passaic County Courts a judgment for about S2, 700 was given against them. Judge Pixon charging the jury that they could only be held for the amount Hague held in bis hands as clerk on May 2Gth and what he received thereafter and did not pay in, because City Treasurer Kidgeway, imposed on by Hague, hai allowed his good uature to interfere with hia judgment and had credited Hague on the booka with con- aiderable sums previous to that time, for which be was really in default.â€" A'cie York Tribune. A Plucky Northwest Woman. On the plains, in Assiuiboine, I found a little lady in the larger of the only two stores iu the place, who told me that the Indians on a reservation close by had begun to grow restless and were manifest ing the fact by unnsualinsolonoe. Only the day before a dozen of the braves had come into the store, when she was stark alone in It, and had demanded whiskey, a com modity they were not allowed to touch and no one was permitted to sell. 8lie told them she had none, and they sat, aa Indiana will, for a long time, aa if to show her they would not go away until they got it Curiously euough, no one came to the store from the settlement. By and bye the In- dians proposed to S3arch for the whiskey. She laughed at them and told them they could search. They did so, peeping and poking everywhere that they could think of. When they offered to go upataira to her living apartmenta, she stood in the doorway and told them they must not ven- ture there. She llattenod her back against the door and defied them. She was Ic than the ordinary height, and did not weigh over 100 pounds, but she quailed them with the eye of a brave and deter- mined woman, and when, presently, some white men came to make purchases the Indians took themaelves off. Only a few nights before that thia same woman had seen a wolf in her back yard, and had gone out and " shooed " it away with her apron and scolding, just as one of our girls might do to a cat. I never saw a man that I thought more pluoky than she. Perhaps, though, wliat no Indian or wolf could do might be done by a mouse. But it ia beyond all reaaon to expect the bravest not to fear a mouse. â€" Albany Fair Journal. 9300 Not Called For.

LBONA DARK'S KECKLESSNESS. BuDglns by Her Teeth from it Balloon Iu Mid-air. ^We greatly doubt the tnoral right ol Miss Leona Dare, the luronaut who ascended from the Crystal I'alace on Monday, to risk her lite aa she does, even for the sake of getting a living by the exhibition of her courage. According to her own ac- count, which was verified by 60,000 specta- tors on Monday, she ascends some mile and a half into the air (3,000 metres is her own estimate), hanging to a balloon by her own teeth, which are uniuually strong. An iron bar is attached to a trapeze suspended from the car, to one and of which an India rubber mouthpiece or ball of that sub- stance baa been fitted. Miss Dare puts her mouth over this, closes her teeth, and is carried np by the balloon, supported by her teeth alone, to a height at which she is invisible from below. There she aignala to two ex- perienced assistants in the oar, who lower a ladder, by which she ascends, being, of course, trained to all acrobatic feats, through a trapdoor into the basket ; " then the basket ia divided into two compart- ments by a shawl, and behind thia parti, tion I change my ballooning ooatume, which of necessity is very light, into an ordinary walking dress, so aa to be able to go home without inconvenience when we descend." Miss Dare declares that she aoffers no inconvenience beyond a surging in her ears, which lasts for some time after she has descended, and that through long exercise her teeth and jaws have become exceptionally strong and trained to bear the e.xceasive fatigue which, it ia plain, must fall to their share ; bat it is obvious, nevertheless, that her life must be in the most extreme peril. She does not like the balloon, she says, to start " with a jerk " â€" a remark betraying her oonsciousneaa of a most ugly possibility. The slightest faint- ness, the smallest defect in the bar, the shook of a moment's toothache, and she would fall among the gaping crowdâ€" dead, we can but trust, before she reached the ground, but in any event crashed out of all recognition. â€" Pall Mall Oaeette. KUTED UUNCHBAOKS. Physical Peculiarities Which Have Be- come Famous. Hnnohbacks form a tolerably numerous list, says a writer iu the "Uentleman's Maga /Ane" for June. There is that brilliant soldier, the Marechal de Luxemburg, of whom Maoauley writoa in one of his moat finialied passages : "Highly descended and gifted aa he was, he had with difficulty sur- mounted the obstacles which impeded him in the road to fame. If ho owed much to the bounty of nature and fortune, be had suffered still more from their spite. His features were frightfully harsh ; hia .stature was diminutive ; a huge and pointed hump rose on his back." The reader knows the hunchbaoked Uiohard of Shakspeare's powerful drama ; bat historical research seems to have delivered the King from his burden, and to have shown that he waa only high shouldered. Lord Lytton, in his "Last of the Barona," has adopted the modern view : "Though the back waa not curved," he says, "yet one ahouldor was slightly higher than the other, which was the more observable from the evident pains he took to diaguiae it, and the gorgeous splendor, savoring of personal coxcombry â€" from which no I'lantagenet was ever free â€" that he exhibited in hia dress." The great minister of Qaoen Elizabeth, William Cecil, Lord Burleigh ; the learned German theo- logian, Ebor ; our "glorious deHverer," William III. ; the famous general of Spain, the Dnko of Parma, these were all "crook backs." The poot Pope had a protuberance both on the back and in front, and one of bis sides was contracted. ITCHIMO PIUCS.
