How far is it expedient to t, convert a railway carriage into a dressing-room ia a question which would be qniokly Bolved in the negative in continental countries, where guards walk along the . footboards and collect tickets while the train is in motion. But in England a passenger who likes to change his attire in a Unit-class com­ partment is, as a rule, pretty secure from interruption. At least, BO thought Mr. Barnaby Chuck er, as he alighted from a hansom •t Paddington and rushed acrosn the platform, holding a railway rug and a carpet-bag, which contained a complete change of raiment--to wit, dress- clothes. Mr. Chueker had received an invita­ tion to dine at Windsor with aome friend of influential position; but, being a busy man, he had not fouud a time to dress at his office in the city, or at his cham­ bers at the West End. Stepping into the train, he slipped a shilling into the hand of the guard and said: "Keep this oompartment. I want to dress." "All right, sir," answered the gnard; and the next moment the train started. Mr. Chueker then unlocked his car­ pet bag and drew out a clean shirt, with other equipments necessary to his bodily adornment. It must not be supposed that he did this without reluctance, for he was a great stickler about all the proprieties of life. Tie objected to seeing things out of season. If he had caught h» best friend changing his pantatoons in a railway carriage he would have thought meanly of him for being of dis­ orderly habits, and so now judged him­ self with a candid severity for not hav­ ing better regulated his time. "If an accident occurred," mused he, as he removed his coat and waistooat, "I wonder what would be thought of me for being half undressed in a train^" Thip reflection made him redden. Hd was a shy, middle-aged man, with large, red ears, and a fat, florid face. The ef­ fect of pulling off his boots always suf­ fused his countenance with crimson, and ' it did so now. insomuch that, what with the color that came from physical ex­ ertion and that which resulted from a troubled conscience. Mr. Barnaby Chueker looked truly distressed. Hav­ ing removed his boots he denuded him­ self of his troubers. This was a trying moment, for if an accident had hap­ pened then. "Why, why, dear me!" ejaculated Mr. Chueker at this stage of his cogitations, "I think the train--no, it cannot be--is stopping." The train was stopping in efleet, as Mr. Chuoker might have foreseen it would do, since he was not traveling by express; but he had been so enwrapped in feel f-upbraiding thoughts that he had not even noticed the first slackening of the engine's speed. He now found himself in the midst of a very disreputable litter of clothes, and with no time to re-dress himself before the train stopped. Be had to decide hastily whether be would steam alongside Ealing platform in his shirt sleeves or miuus hid panta­ loons. He chose wisely in huddling on his coat, which he buttoned up, while he oovered his lower man with his railway rug. This done, he collected as many of his belongings as he could into his bag, kicked his boots under a seat, and tried to look dignified. The train had come to a stand-still now, and the guard opened the door of the carriage in which our hero was sit­ ting and cried: "There's room here, sir, for you and this lady." "Hi, guard!" exclaimed Mr. Chueker, leaning out in horror, "you told me I should have this compartment to my­ self." Unfortunately for our modest friend, the guard to whom he had given the shilling was not the one appointed to travel with the train. These little mis­ takes often occur and lead to unpleasant consequences. The present guard said bluntly: "I can't give you a compartment to yourself unless you pay for it, sir. It's against the rules. Here, madam, step in please." A lady who looked in very delicate health got into the carriage, and a gen­ tleman with her. Mr. Barnaby Chueker felt ready to swoon. Before he could inform the guard of his readiness to pay for a whole compartment sooner than • have his privacy intruded upon, the train was off again, and Mr. Chueker fell to reflecting how he should effect his change of carriages at Slough, now that he was in no fit state to step on to a platform. The train in which he traveled was not bound straight for Windsor, but for Birmingham, and Mr. Ghucker would have to change at Slough if he wishea to dine with his friends that evening. Alas! a more urgent difficulty than that involved in a change of carriages soon presented itself to him for no sooner had the train started than the lady who had just stepped in began to moan and to shiver, saying that she felt cold all over. Her husband sought to quiet her, but it was ail of no use, for she was really ill. At last the poor man looked in despair at Mr. Chuoker, and politely said :• _ "Excuse me for taking a great liberty, sir; but would you be so kind as to lend my wife your rug? We started in a hurry and forgot to bring one. As it is not a cold day, perhaps you would not mind obliging us as far as Slough, where 1 shall bo able to buy a mg." "Eh ?" grunted Mr. Chueker, stupi- fied. , The request completely staggered him, and he could find no words in which to reply. "Would you kindly lend this lady your rug? repeated the gentleman nther astonished. "Hoo!" growled Mr. Chueker, in ft voice like a bear's. It had just occurred to him that the safest way out of his difficulties would be to sham being mad. A Frenchman would have quietly heconed the gentleman to the other aide of the carriage and would have ex­ plained the dilemma with a laugh. But Englishmen are persons full of sticeness, and Mr. Chueker dared not Confess to a stranger that he had no trousers on. He repeated "Hoo!* two or three times over, and his stratagem succeeded perfectly, for both his fellow passen­ gers became convinoed that they were traveling with a lunatic. The lady began to scream. Her tierves were so unstrung that she could Hot stand this extra shock. And Mr. Chueker made things worse by the fixity with wliioh he stared at her. The gentleman armed himself with an um­ brella to protect his wife. Mr. Chueker, entering into the spirit fcf his part, caught up his own umbrella 4nd brandished it. The travelers were in their attitude of vigilance and menace when the train once more slackened speed* and Hsn- well was reached. Instantly the gefitlemafU jumped out on the off side of the line, fed as not to pass Mf. Chueker, and he helped out lii|- .wife, whose screams had by this time given place to a fit of shivering. ^ Mr. Chueker thought himself well rid of his mess, for the train would go on again, and he should be able to com­ plete his dressing. By way of insuring privacy for the remainder of his journey, he began by pulling the car­ riage blinds down. Alas! he was not to get off BO easily. Already there was a commotion on the platform. The husband of the fainting lady had explained matters to the station master; Rome porters and guards had overheard him, and rumor circulated that there was a lunatic in the train. Some passengers, poking their heads out of the carriage windows, protested against traveling in the company of a man who might commit some mad acts--set the train on fire, throw himself out, or emit awful poises. The station master was obliged to pacify these murmurs by Btriding toward the alleged maniac's carriage. The all-unconscious Mr. Chueker was rudely aroused by the door being suddenly opened and a gruff voice exclaiming: "Now, sir, what's the matter with you?" "Nothing's--the -- the--matter with me," stammered Mr. Chucken "What should there be?" but, so saying, he hugged his rug closer to him with a guilty look. " Would you mind stepping out, sir?" "Why should I? My ticket is for Windsor." "Change here for Windsor, sir," re­ sponded the guard, who was quite con­ vinced by this time tiiat he had a queer character to deal with. "Well, man, sinoe you put me to it, I've no trousers on," confessed Mr. Chueker, lowering his voice; where­ upon the station master echoed in amazement: "No trousers!" and the crowd behind caught up the words: " No trousers!" "He's throwed 'em oat," suggested a porter. "Perhaps he had none on when he got into the train?" suggested the station master. "Of course I had, man. I've two pair with me now. Let me alone, that may put one on," faltered Mr. Chueker, intimidated and disgusted by the sight of so many people staring at him. But while he %as speaking, some low churl, seizing a corner of his rug, gave it a twitch, and abruptly exposed Mr. Chucker's dishabille to view. There was a shout of mingled laugh­ ter and dismay among the passengers, some of whom, being ladies, deemed it expedient to squeaL "Out you come." roared the blushing Btation master, in a paroxysfn of indig­ nation, and he clutched Mr. Chueker by the wrist. "Well! but--bat--let me d--dress first," pleaded the victim.as he felt, not only his arms, but his legs in the grasp of different bands. He made a short struggle, but this did not improve his position, for his resistance was ascribed to a maniacal outbreak, and emboldened his aggressors to drag him out of the carriage feet foremost, He tumbled out in a heap, and was then carried across the platform, kicking and roaring in the sight of 100 pairs of astonished or amused eyes. "Oh!" exclaimed the yomg ladies, as he passed. "Poor man 3" cried some older ones. "Hi! Fetch the polioe," chorused some of the porters. Ten minutes later, when Mr. Chueker had been conveyed, under strong escort, to she station master's room, and had been suffered to don his pantaloons, he contrived to get a hearing and to ex­ plain how ail the trouble had arisen. " Well, but why didn't you tell this before?" cried the non-prossed station master. "Because you wouldn't listen to me, you beast," screamed Mr. Chueker. "Well, you've misted you train and your dinner," said the station master, "and that'll be a lesson to you." "Lesson of what ?" asked Mr. Chueker, exasperated. "Lesson--why--why--lesson not to take off one pair of breecdes until you've put the other on, and that for decency's sake, sir!" answered the 6tation master,* sternly, formulating an axiom which sounded well; though, perha.ps, like some other maxims pro­ pounded by worldly pbilosoyhy, it is not easy to follow.--London Truth. Moorish Beauty. The Moors have extraordinary ideas concerning female beauty.. They fancy an oily skin, teeth protruding beyond the lips, pointed nails an inch long, and a figure so corpulent that two persons putting their arms around the waist could scarcely make their fingers touch. A woman of modern pretensions to beauty needs a slave under each arm to support her as she walks, and a perfect belle carries weight enough to load a camel. Mothers are so anxious to have their daughters attain this unwieldy size that they make them eat a great quantity of millet pudding and drink several bowles of camel's milk per day. Mungo Park said he had seen a poor girl sit crying for more than an hour with the bowl at her lips, while her mother stood over her with a stick and beat her whenever she perceived that she was not swallowing. The Moors marry at a very early age, and wives are always purchased. The father of the girl cannot refuse an offer unless there is some stain upon the young man's character. If a wife does not become the mother of a son she may be divorced by the husband. The mother of many sons is held in the highest respect and is never suffered to perform any menial •ervice.--Hearth and Hall VaMtloni Bat Fvaad aa •equally Fan ay Mmm. IJU some of the Western grazing re­ gions the appearance of a railroad train is a pleasant break in the monotony of the cowboy's existence, and the mem­ bers of that class of rough riders are al­ ways ready to make the best of the passing excitement which the train brings. They will ride for miles to the track and yell to the engineer, ehout the compliments of the day in a free and airy fashion to the passengers, kiss their hands to any pretty girls to be seen at the car windows, and ride a losing race as long as they are within hail of the train. In Western Kansas there is a long steep grade on the Atchi­ son, Topeka and Santa Fe, where the ascending trains would toil up so slowly that the cowboys could ride alongside and visit with the train hands for a mile or two. One cowboy they called Bed Pete got to be remarkably fiee in the liberties he took with trainmen and passengers. He would ride up beside the engineer and ask for a chew, he would joke with the brakemen and con­ ductor, and make fun of the butcher. In summer, when most of the car win­ dows would be open, and the dust' covered passengers lolling out to catch a breath of vitalized air, Bed Pete would grasp any verdant-looking men by the hand and squeeze it till the owner yelled. To attractive members of the fair sex he was exceedingly lib­ eral with expressions of devotion, and he seldom paid a visit to a train without inviting some lady to light off and be­ come the wife of his bosom. One day Pete made some facetious re­ marks about the personal appearance of a raw-boned miner, with hands nearly the size of a No. 3 coal scoop, who was leaning out of a car window. Pete bore no malice with all his fnn, and, wishing to finish up in a friendly way, he held out his hand to shake with the miner before leaving. The miner grasped Pete's band with won derful cordiality, and displayed extra­ ordinary interest iu all that "was going on. He wanted to know all about the cattle business, and offered the cow boy a pair of boots for his poney. That being rejected, he tried to establish some other pasis for a trade. Mean­ while the train had got over the sum­ mit and was working with speed on the down grade, but the miner clung to the hand of the cowboy and encouraged him to spur up the gait of his pony. The train got beyond the pony's pace, and, following his hand, which was still inclosed in the ample grip of the Eassenger, Bed Pete slipped over the ead of the horse, and hung dangling at the side of the car like a weasel nailed to n barn door. A small creek ran alongside the track, and it still contained pools of slimy water that the heat had failed to lap up. When the miner thought that he had got all the fun out of the oowboy that could be made, he let him drop down so that he rolled softly into one of the slime pud' dies. The last that the trainmen saw of Pete was a statute of mud, with hall a dozen cowboys, who had followed, rolling on their horses' baoks in Jfits of laughter. Bulgaria Fast a«l PrcoMt. There can be no doubt, whatever, as to the general content, and, happiue and prosperity, of the bulk of the popu­ lation of Bulgaria as oompared with their past under the Turkish rule. A friend at Constantinople, who had re? cently traveled through the greater part of Bulgaria, told me that on his re turn he was asked by a Philo-Turk what difference independence could really have made in the lot of average peasants in Bulgaria, seeing that theii taxes were somewhat higher now than they used to be. My friend in reply, said he had put that very same question to a Bulgarian; the answer was that "it was true they paid more taxes than they did to the Turkish Government, but the difference was that they now got- something in return for them--namely, good roads, good schools and good se­ curity for property and life; the money paid with one hand was spent by the other for themselves, while under the Turkish rule they got nothing in re­ turn for their taxes. He and his wife could not, under the old state of things, go out of the town where they lived, to visit a vineyard which they possessed in the neighborhood without being pro­ tected by thirty or forty well-armed persons. Now they could go there alone in perfect safety. They lived there without fear during the summer, unguarded. Always when there, they rejoiced in their new position; some­ times they shed tears, thinking it was too good to be true, and that the Turks must be coming back." When we re­ collect what the Bulgarians endured, and what they have now gained, we cannot wonder that their papers should now and then make severe attacks on the Government of Turkey. The editor of one of these newspapers told my friend that on one occasion an ambassa­ dor at Constantinople, well known for his sympathies with Turkey, com­ plained that he had not in his articles dealt with Turkey in a Christian spirit. In reply, the editor said his own expe­ rience of the Turks was this: he had re­ ceived a good education at an European university as a doctor of medicine; he had been arrested and imprisoned by the Government four years before the war. He never knew what his offense was. He was sent to St. Jean d'Acre, and remained in close confinement there for eight years; he thus lost the best years of his life. He was released after the war through the efforts of Sir H. Layard, together with forty-six other educated men who had been subjected to the same treatment. It might be ex­ cusable, he said, if some of these men found it difficult to describe the Turk-" ish system with the same charity as was possible to an ambassador who had succeeded in his career, namely, by his devotion to the Turkish cause.--O. Shaw Lefeverre in the Contemporary Review. Wg Devil-flab In Georgia. The Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution tells of an exciting adventure with a big devil­ fish by a party of negro fishermen in Madison County, who caught the mon­ ster in a net in Broad River. When the negroes reached the bank and dis­ covered what they had captured they fled in terror. One of the negroes was a little slow, and came very near losing his life. The monster gripped him around the leg with his fingers, and he yelled terri­ bly to companions for assistance. One of them who escaped approached to within ten feet of his unfortunate com­ panion and threw an ax at the monster. It was thrown with, terrible force, the blade striking the fish on the head, which caused it to relax its hold on the negro, who escaped. The fish appear­ ed to be in pain and its struggles were terrible. It tangled itself up in the seine and finally rolled into the river, sending forth a fearful shriek of agenj as it disappeared in the water. ORMI Kadta* of Thair shlpaad AtweUttoa. . 'Whoa, Boh--ho--ho,boy--easy,Bob!" It seemed to me it took all the strength of Tommy's arms and all the coaxing tones of his voice to keep the fiery animal under control, and as I am not a horseman myself and knew little of Tommy s horsemanship I held firmly to the side of the biiggy and felt a nerv­ ous presentiment that we were shortly to figure in a wild runaway with a mashed buggy and tofo damaged travel­ ers as a result . We fairly flew through the quiet Can­ adian town and out into the open coun­ try, where we sped along over the hard, smooth road, Tommy giving his whole attention to Bob, while I gave mine to Bob and Tommy alternately. mHi boy!" Bob heeded the sharp warning and did not break into a run as he was about to da hat he hounded along with increased speed, neverthe­ less.. I saw that the horse and driver un­ derstood each other, and I felt suffi­ ciently at ease to remark that Bob seemed to feel pretty lively. 'He'll quiet down presently," said Tommy, and so he did, for shortly af­ terward we were going at a steadier pace and Tommy had relaxed his vigilance enough to converse with me. Tommy was a little, lame man. with a meek face and a quiei voice and with nothing "horsey" about him; but that he was a most genuine lover of horse flesh his conversation proved. "I can't bear a slow horse," he sakl, when I remarked that he seemed a hard driver,'"but I never hurt a horse in my life. I think enough of my horses to take better care of 'em than I do of my- Belf. I ought to think a great deal of 'em," he continued, "for' I don't think of anvthing else." ( "Not a family ; v "Yes, I 've got a fumily ^Bf^ pighteen hones," said Tommy. ^ "Any more as good as Bob?" I asked, glancing at the handsome animal with genuine admiration. "I have three just as fast," replied Tommy, "but none that I like to drive so well. It's great sport to drive Bob," he continued. " Why, he'll take me around for half a day without tightening a trace: just pulls the buggy with his mouth.r "Ever run away with you?" "What, Bobl No, no. He'd never run away with me behind him. He knows as muck as a man. See his He knows we are talking about him now." Perhaps he did. If he knew all that was said about him that day he must have been an extremely well satisfied horse, for everywhere people turned to look at him with admiring gaze and when we stopped, his splendid propor­ tions, his clean cut limbs, bis glossy coat and high mettle all called for words of praise. I found that Tommy and his horses were well known through all that country. "Tommy Horton's rig, eh," people would say, and "Helly; that's Tommy himself." Then there would be a vacating of stores and inns and Tommy would be surrounded by ad­ miring friends until it was time for us to drive on. "Did you give Bob aome water?" I asked as we were leaving one town, after traveling some twenty miles or so. "I offered him some," said Tommy, "butt he wouldn't driok.- Me must be thirsty, too. It seems funny, but I be­ lieve Bob knows it ain't good for him to drink when he's warm." And so all day long the evidence ac­ cumulated to prove that Bob was a per* feet horse, and I believed it as thor­ oughly as did Tommy liimself. Towards evening we approaohed a town ot considerable size, where we were to remain over night. "See how Bob lifts his head," said Tommy, "he wants to go into town iu good style. Whoa, Bob! ho, ho! boy!" A wagon had come up behind us and Bob was off at a rattling pace down the street that passed through the center of the town. Two farmers who had evidently spent a lively dsy in town were coming to­ ward us in a big lumbering wagon. They were talking and laughiug bois­ terously and seemed not to see us until we were close to them; then the be­ fuddled driver pulled quickly on the wrong rein, his horses turned toward us, the wheels looked, there was a crash, and Tommy and I plunged headlong from the buggy. I scrambled to my feet unhurt and saw Bob dashing madly down the street with the broken buggy. I went over to Tommy, who was. lying ou his back with pale face and set lips, "That J wasn't Bob's fault," he said faintly. "Are you badly hurt?" I asked him. "My leg, niy leg," he said, biting his lip. A crowd had gathered and we were about to^uaove Tommy to a neighboring drug store, when a man oame pushing up to him. "Tommy," said the new oomer, "your horse has broken his leg. Shall we shoot him ?" "Shoot Bob?" cried Tommy, raising himself quickly and looking at the speaker with blazing eyes. Then he writhed with pain and sank back again on the ground. He turned away his face. "Yes," he said huskily a momont later, "you may shoot Bob." And the tears in his eyes were caused by his own broken limb.--Free Press. He Wanted to Know. The big, flat-bottomed western steamer had not mad« a landing, and the captain was deliberating whether it would be advisable for him to do so, when a thin voiea piped off shore: "Say, cap'n, going ter land?" " W ant anything ?" sang out the offioer, going forward. "Wall, yes," came the deliberate re­ ply, and thinking there was some busi­ ness to be taken off, the master gave word to the pilot and the ungainly steamer began to swing around for the landing. The lumbering craft slowly obeyed her rudder and in the course of ten minutes her guards were grating the muddy, uncertain banks of the old river. "What do you want?" asked the cap­ tain, addressing the little man who sauntered up the plant " Whea'r ye goin' back up stream?" he queried,, lookincr over the boat with a critical eye. ' "In two weeks," replied: the captain; "what do you want?"
