HE HAS MOVED. “When we moved into the country,” said Mr. CUiangiaifair, “I idmost wondered at the alnuilnto eonUdenoo of tho of the moving party. It was a long liaul, two or three vans, and tho bill •tier of $40 or $.".0, but they moved irythlng out of the vans into tho house an before the boss driver presented the bill. I wondered what they would do,if somebody should say then that ho would call at the office and scttl something of that sort. But, then, I knew I was going to pay; that it had been perfectly safe to get tho stuff in and collect the bill afterward of me, and I mode up my mind that they ■ keen men. who knew people when they met them, whom they could trust “Well, after some years we moved hack. Same concern moved us in. but they didn't know ns at the office any more than if they had never heard of us. Arrived in the city, the men with the vans—it was a different crow from that that took ns out—began lugging in tho things just as the men that moved ns out had done in the country. Nobody said anything about pay, pad Wandered again what would happen if they got tho stuff all in and then the owner didn't pay. But they kept ou hustling the tilings in just as if they felt perfectly easy and secure about that After awhile the stuff was pretty xnnch all in—practically all but the piano—and I wondered why they hadn't brought that in before, because I hod loodtsl, and I knew it was one of the last things loaded on at tho very end of one^if tho vans. So I went to see, and there was the piano, right where I had seen it when it was put aboard, at the extreme rear end of while all the stuff in front had boon taken out, carried around the end of the piano and on into tho house. In front of it t bo van was empty. “Passing through the hall, I met the •ad driver, tho boss of the party, and he. just ('usually meeting"me in that way in the hall, handed over the bill for the moving, mid I paid it on tho spot. :u, everything clue having boon red in, the whole gang tallied on to piano and walked it right into the Of course it may have only just happened that the piano wasn't moved in until I had paid the bill, but this didn't give me quite such a flattering opinion of myself as tlie other way bail, but it more than confirmed my original opinion of the shrewdness and ability of the van folks. They made few mistakes and took even fewer risks”—New York extended uceourtt i* given in the Cincinnati Enquirer of John Floyd's discovery of a peculiar kind of fire, Inextinguishable when once Ignited. It Is rupruomed as a substanu' having the consistency of paste and harmless while. In a quiet state.

Tho bedrooms aro small, tbin walled boxes in which you may hear the breathing of your next neighbor or be kept awake half tho night by the conversation of people at the other end of the hall, or, worse still, be almost stifled by tho smoke from an opium pipe which is being indulged in by tho man across the passageway. Tho tea saloons furnish employment to singers and ventriloquists or elocutionists, who arc hired by the proprietor to entertain tho men who gather there to drink tea and gossip.

L. R. Bostick of San Saba, Tex, who captured General Santa Anna G] yean ago, is now in Ijis seventy-eighth year. He went to Texas in lb28 and settled in Austin county. In 1B8S he enlisted in the Texas army and the following year joined General Houston’s army. After a battle. In company with two other young men, he was scouting over the country about eight miles from camp when he saw a Mexican standing in the high grass. He attempted to hide, but they took him prisoner, and he proved to be Santa Anna.
