A Story of Jenny Lind and Barnum, Cred- ited to Maurice Strakosoh and Worked Off on the Editor of Das Tageblatt as veritable amatory. . If there is any limit to the credulity of the German journalist touching all mat- ters relating to America, or at least all those which reflect upon the American character, it has not yet been discovered. A recent feuilleton in Das Tageblatt of Berlin, entitled "Jenny Lind and Bar- num," was written by somebody who palls himself Franz Fridberg, who vouches for the "literal truthtulnees" of the story, which he says was told him by Maurice Strakosoh. Poor Strakosoh, alas, is dead and cannot defend himself. He was a most amiable raconteur, and none of Ms friends was ever disposed to exact the un- ulorned truth from him when he was in- dulging his fondness for reminiscence, but it is an insult to bis memory to attribute a story like this of Frldberg's to him. The story in brief was as follows: Jenny Lind had won groat popularity in Eng- land, but earned no money. For the latter convenient commodity she was obliged to wait till she carne to America. That visit was brought about in this way: Gold- sohmidt, her accompanist, had gone to America to seek his fortune. It had been a hard parting. for he loved the singer (he afterward married her), and the result was disappointment. He was about to return home when ho met Barnum and com- plained to him of his ill luck. Barnum was equally unhappy. He had tried every- thing.—"circus, violin virtuosos, dancers, educated apes, learned lecturers"—but all in vans. Then Goldschmidt suggested that he know a singer in England who might be a cart] in America. "A singer? Pahl What's her name?" "Jenny Lind." "That's no name." ' "But she sings beautifully." "Good thing for her, but no business for me." "But she's the greatest singer in Eng- land." "Better still for her. But we'll talk about something else." After a while spent in talk on other sub- jects Goldschmidt returned to the attack. "For God's sake," Barnum broke in impatiently, "leave me in peace with your singer. We have as many singers as there are sands on the seashore." "Pity," replied Goldschmidt carelessly; "perhaps, after all, something might be done with the Swedish Nightingale." Barnum leaped to his feet. "What's that? Swedish"— "T-hat'swhat they caliber in England." "What is she palled?" "The Swedish Nightingale." "The Swedish Nightingale? Telegraph at once to Miss Jenny Lind. I will engage her for 100 concerts; $50,000 down, free voyage and living for three persons. At once!" "But, my dear friend, you haven't heard her!" "Heard her! What the devil do I know about music? Swedish Nightingale! Im- mense! And you, unlucky wretch, wait till now before telling me!" Goldschmidt rushed to thetelegraph of- fice, sent the message, received an answer and the thing was done! This much of the story might be accept- ed good naturedly, e4en if the facts were not of record that the contract between Barnum and Jenny Lind was negotiated by Mr. Barnum's agent, J. H. Wilton, in January, 1850, with the singer herself; that this was a year and four months be- fore Mr. Goldsohmidt, who joined her company here in May, 1851, after Mr. Ju- lius Benedict, the original pianist, had re- turned to England, ever saw America, and that the telegraphic message se peremp- torily ordered and promptly sent was dis- patched eight years before there was an Atlantic cable! But the marvels are just beginning. A new bridge was building in the harbor. The newspapers announced that it was to be dedicated when Jenny Lind arrived. There it stands, a regal structure. crowd- ed with humanity waiting for the ship. Only invited guests have been given access to it. The ship comes in sight. A tre- mendous exoittefhent seizes the mesas. All crowd forward shrieking "Hurrah!" wav- ing handkerchiefs, stamping with their feet. A crash, a scream of horror! The bridge has col'lapsedi Was it an accident due to the faulty construction- of the bridge? Oh., po I it 'Ras Barnum's most masterly -trick. He had provided the money to build the bridge, hired the "in- vited" public to stand on it at $10'per, head, placed those who could swim farthest , from the shore, the others nearer, and the moment the ship landed the piers were pulled away and the structure, with all up- on it, precipitated into the water. A few hours later telegrams flashed in all direc- tions: "Horrible catastrophe! Five hun- dred dead! When the ship which brought the Swedish Nlghtinagle to New York hove in sight today, there was such a crowd and a scramble on the newly built landing bridge that it collapsed. Five hundred persons drowned. When Miss Jenny Lind heard of the dreadful catas- trophe, she wept bitterly, and at once the pious artist resolved to devote the proceeds of her first concert to the relief of the fam- ilies o€ the vte iris. "- - Anil -Mrs -Franz Frid berg concludes, putting the words into the mouth of the genial Maurice: "Barnum did the biggest business he over did in America—that is, he did get a bigger card later—jumbo, the white elephant!" . It would be an insult to tho Arnerioan intel- ligence to reprint this story were it not for the fact that it is published by ono of the best newspapers of Berlin as veritable his- Itry.—New York Tribune. Tile Currant Worm. A gardener, one of the observant, old fashioned sort who knows that the boat see comes from hill maple trees and all those shades of plant and trop lore, gives a suggestion that may be of value to sub- urban residents. It is in relation to the currant worm, which be says can be kept away, or if established, driven away, by a sprig of pine thrust in the center of each bush. Interesting to the Clergy. A minister who used to preach in Som- erville had a little boy.

"Oh, no," he said, "only preach."— Sornerviile Journal. It is estimated that over eight tons of diamonds have been unearthed in the South African fields during the last 18 ears.

LOCEE, Oshawa, Ont. enat rr Hoar'l Inapt Qnota►$oe. Senator Hoar is regarded by younger senators as the ablest man in the senate, and some go so far as to add the foremast 'statesman now in public life. At any rate Mr. Hoar is probably the beet read man In the senate, says a correspondent in the New York Tribune, He is gifted with a marvelous memory and is able to quote at an instant's notice verse or prose wblob he holds to be fitting to the occasion. One day not long ago when eulogizing Eng- land Senator Hoar delivered, with much elocutionary fervor, this verse: More great than ever now and more august, Now glorified she from her fires doth rise. Her widening streets on new foundations trust And opening into larger parts she flies. Now like a maiden green she doth behold To her high turrets hourly suitors come. The east with incense and the west with gold Shall stand like suppliants to receive het doom. All this was charming and made quite an impression, until Senator Stewart, relic had listened intently, remarked savagely, "That is so." Senator Hoar paused for a moment and considered what he had said, then quickly added, "Oh, I do not mean to have the United States stand up and be counted in that company." Of course the laugh was at Mr. Hoar's expense, and Senator Stewart enjoyed it immensely. Profits From the Porcupine. Porcupine quills are a necessary of 'ife to anglers, for the' make excellent floats for bottom fishing. Also scores of pen- holders aro made from the black and white spikes, and many kinds of ornamental screens and fans are'pieoed and knitted of these quills. Something like 2,000,000 porcupine quills reach Britain every year, and they chiefly come from India, also a few from tipain. The animal has to be hunted and killed before the quills can bo obtained, and many hundreds of porcupines are slain for this purpose every year. The quills are carefully extracted and dried, packed in orates and shipped away to Europe, where they are used for all man- ner of things in the way of tackle and or- namentation. .A porcupine is always worth killing, for every "spike pig" car- ries 10 shillings' worth of quills on his fretful back.—London Answers. mercenary.

The total number of Sunday School scholars in the world in 1800 was 22,- 508,661. In the United States are, 0,- 718,432 Sunday School scholars and 123,173 Sunday Schools. s Thus it is to be seen that that country furnishes a large percentage of the Sunday School population of the world. Nowadays when women are trying to do everything it is not strange that many things are over -done. It is not strange that there are all kinds of physical and mental disturbances. If the woman who is a doctor, or a lawyer, or a journalist, or in business would not try to be a society woman too it might be different; but the woman who knows when she bas done a day's work has yet to be born. Usually a woman's way is to k"ep doing until she drops Working in this way has mani- fold evils. The most common trouble re- sulting from over-exertion, either mentally or physically, is constipation of the bowels, with all its attendant horrors. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, are the most effectual- remedy in the market. They work upon the system easily, naturally. There is no unpleasant nausea after taking them. No griping—no pain—no discomfort, They are composed of mats -Male that go through the system gradually, collecting fill im- purities and, like the good little servants that they are, disposingof;them effectually. THE OLD GARDENER. His love For Long Words and the Beall. ties of Nature. "Da yon remember," asked the owner of a large country place, "a man in one of Stockton's stories whose great ambition was to own a dictionary? Well, I have just that fellow in my employ now; My gar- dener might have furnifhed the original, in that respect at least, for the oharacer the writer was describing. I always noticed Michael's passion for long words, but 1t was by accident that he revealed to me one day how much he would like to have e dictionary of his own in which he might hunt up his beloved polysyllables. I gave him one, and after that his conversation was more resplendent than ever. He was not always quite sure of his ground, but he invariably succeeded in producing an impressive result, On one occasion, I remember, my next neighbor had quietly appropriated several bushels of my early bough apples, which grow unfortunately near to the boundary line between the two places. It was not a matter worth making much fuss about, yet I should have liked to stop it, and in talking it over with Mi- chael I said, half to him and half to myself, 'I wonder what would be the best thing to do.' " `Well, sir,' said be, 'this is what I think: You'll just do nothing whatever at present. You'll wait till them late rus- set apples of his is ripe and then you'll gather a heap o' them some night and r-r-�rliote the Dom limpit.' "Mlcliael alArts had a grudge against this particular neighbor anyway, and held his gardening ideas in especial contempt. So one day, when I chanced to be the first to discover that Mr. — had out down one of hie most beautiful hedges to make room for something else, I hastened to tell Michael and get his opinion upon the des- ecration. He bad a deep, genuine affec- tion for all growing things, and his eyes glowed wrathfully when he heard of the murdered laurel bushes, •even though they grew outside of his own domain. "'What do you think of the perform- ance?' I asked. "'ML --,' replied the old fellow, speaking slowlyand emphasizing every word, 'the man that would do that ought to be exoommunioated from the ohuroh and denied Christian burial.' Coming from a good Catholic like Michael, I think this will stand as a pretty severe sen- tence."—New Yo4k Tribune. BEFORE. MORSE'S MESSAGE. The First Working Telegraph Line Wal at Princeton College. The "campus wire," as the students called it, was the thing whioh excited the most wonderful speculation when Henry was at Princeton. Dr. Edward Shippen of Philadelphia, of the class of '45, states that it ran along from Philosophical hall, by the front of North college, among the outer branches of some of the fine trees and then round the western end to Profe or Henry's house, whioh was west North college and south of the old lir and Recitation hall. This wire was th first in whioh the current was completed through the earth. It went into tbo well• at the professor's house, the other and be- ing in the earth at Pbilosophioal hall. Professor Henry often used the "campus wire" in the presence of the students, al- thbagh ho was not given to superfluous experiments. He had an arbitrary oode. If he wanted his luncheon sent over, he worked his armature a few times aocord- ing.to the node. Mrs. Henry /:waived the message. Tho stndente waited, and pres- ently Sam would appear bringing the pre- cise artioles ordered on a tray covered with a napkin. This simple exhibition of what is now an everyday transaction was then a source of wonder. This 000urred again and again before Morse telegraphed between Balti- more and Washington, whioh was in the month of May, 1844.—James W. Alexan- der in June SFr' 's. Where were 125 deaths in Chicago on Slily 5, many ft'om heat, tl,e lar'geet,,. number that evezr oc ur>'ed' hi'Chicngo In one day, 11 is again rumored that the Domin- ion Government is pulling wires tit Washington to secure the appoint- ment of a joint trade commission by both countries. 'Edmund. E. Sheppard, of Toronto, Canada, is in the City of Mekico, and is reparted to have a commission to treat with the Government in re- gard to the Canadian commercial in- terests in Mexico. A Oanadjan colony has been started on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. At a strictly private conference in London, on Monday, between the Col- onial Premiers and Mr Joseph Cham- berlain, Secretary of State for the Col- onies, the question of inter -colonial trade was discussed at greatnlength. Sir Wilfrid Laurier took a very strong stand against the• treaties with the favored nation clause, and said they must be changed so as not to affect the trade of the colonies. In the con- tention Sir Wilfrid was supported by all the Premiers Mr Chamberlain did not see his way to interfere with the existing treaties; as Great Britain had trading advantages with the German Zollverein which she could not forego. There does not appear to be any chance of either the Colonial Secretary or the Premiers modifying their views on this question, and a deadlock is prob- able. BUILD UP When the system is run down, a person becomes an easy prey to Consumption or Scrofula. Many valuable lives are saved by using Scott's Emulsion, as soon as de- cline in health is observed: The Toronto Telegram says:— Al- though Mr J. P. Whitney and the companions of his pilgrimage through the province may solidify the Conser- vative party, the appear to be doing nothing to attract recruits to that party from among the numerous Lib- erals who are dissatisfied with the Hardy Government. When Mr Whit- ney uriifiesand strengthens his own party he clears the way for the nom- ination of the strongest possible candi- dates. There is really no great issue separating the parties in provincial politics. The platform of the one is practically the platform of the other, and the promises of the Opposition are neither much better nor much worse than the performances of the tiovern- ment. The issue in many constituen- cies will turn largely upon the local strength of the standard bearers of the two parties. The people of Onta- rio are not going to rise up and hailihim as a deliverer any more than they are going to prostrate themselves at Mr Hardy's feet. The approaching cam- paign in Ontario is likely to be con- spicuous for an absence of strong lead- ers or great issues, and the party which nominates the largest number of locally strong men will gain most of the seats in the next Legislature.
