This is bad enough in prlvato life, but in business circles It is condcmnnblo. Along busi ness streets it was observable that the enterprising business man who sells his goods at fair prices nud advertises to that effect, had the snow all off as soon as his doors wcro open. Tho other man didn't, lie let it lie there, to bo splashed in and carried over on to tho clean sidewalk of bis thrifty neighbor.

It may bo a small thing, but thcro are ten million email things in life to one groat one and the little worries kill. Tho object of these few cursory remarks is not to find fault or to intimate that cvory man should 'wipe off his door step, so to speak. It is merely to mako a note of what one may see on a snowy day, and to point out tho fact that tho snow has a moral aim, as well ns to act in its natural capacity of protect ing mantle to the bosom of tho earth. We may also remark in this connection that u snow shovol does not cost much, and that there aro hundreds of poor fel lows to whom a quarter for removing tho Know is to some extent a solace for the discomforts it brings them.

Hut other men of genius have thought dif ferently ou the subject.

Two coppersmiths out ot employment In Hankow prlvatoly formed a llttlo company to n-ako copper cash, and began their operations for tomo reason by melting down about eight pounds ot Imperial copper coins. The band bad made but llttlo progress in their secret trade, having only manufactured altogether some 10,000 .'coin, equivalent to little more than i.1, when they wero captured, tried and condemned. According to tho report, the ringleader was sentenced to Immediate decapi tation for melting down coin of tho realm; the next, who had assisted In tho work of coining, was sentenced to decapitation alter imprisonment; wnite two others, who baa polished the spurious coins, and tho last, who acted as kookkceper, were treated not as prin cipals, but as accessories, Hablo to Importa tion to Turkestan and emplojmentas slaves to the troops there a fato bcllevod to be worse than immediate decapitation. Some other mon, who seem to havo nothing to do with the coining Itself, but acted as domestic servants to tbo principals, received sentences ot three years' banlshmeut and a hundred blows each. An Ontpolled Child or tho Stugo. A'. 3". Sun. There Is said to bo but one exception among hem all and that Is tho beautiful girl who played in "Editha's Burglar" at tho Lyceum Theatre last year. Her name is Elslo Lcsllo. She is not 10 years of ago and alio Is at present playing at the Boston Jfuseum In "I.lttlu Lord Fauntleroy." In December tho comes to the llroadway. She is unquestionably a child of genlus.and the stories that actors andnctrosscs tell of her aro apt to make tho novices start, for she teems to have acquired tho rudiments of dramatic art after tho most thorough and laborious fashion. Sbo Is a sweet-tempered child. Her mother Is her constant compan ion and It Is due to maternal caro that she has not lost tho charm of her youthfulness and Innocence. The mother went around among tho actors and aotrcsses of the company whon uie season uegan ana earnestly rcqucsicu them not pralte the child or commend hor In any way, but treat ber at thy would any other well-behaved little girl of lets than ten years. Tho llttlo EUIa has carried the entire produc tion of "Lord Fauntleroy" and she Is depended upon to lift the plav Into the position of a Now York success, with all that that Implies, when the season Is opened here.

Sarah Dearnhardtjalto made the acqualntanco of the Viennese, lucomo tax collector, who taxed her for six months' In come, although sbo was In Vicuna only a fortnight, nnd seized 8,000 marks of hermouoy at the box office when she refused to pay.

Is a modest juune gentleman named Ah Mny, who does business on the curbstone on .Mott street, lu tho heart of the Chlneso quarter. He Is a coy joulh and 'bsk tol. houest. He Is ofrnld to answer mauy qut tlons about himself or his vegetables, lint ho deals honestly with lilt customers and gIVcs them fair weight. No kind of food Is sold among the Chinese by mcasuteor by count. Everything I bought by weight. An artist did some quiet marketing In order to establish confidential relations with the pro prietor, whoso chief characteristic was a per petual tendency to say "slk cent pound" to every question that was asked him. Every ono of his vegetables, Including a big Invoice ot sugar cane from Louisiana and somo New lortc ataio apples, was noia at iuri nguro. He welghod oven thing ho sold on a quaint, old-fashioned scalo, whoso rod was mahogany, tcryoldaud much polished by long friction. 'lh chances aro that with It Moj's auccstors weighed out food to Soo Chow citizens long bo forn the ! nlted St ates wcro heard of. Tho weight Is a clumsy hunk of rusty Iron, and the di visions ot weight aro Indicated along the rod by hundreds of brass nails, which aro driven so skilfully that the rod Is uot cracked anywhero. Tbo vegetables sold by Ah Moy attract largo crowds of Chinamen ovcry morn Ins after Leo Foug has dtlvcn away. Tho grcatcttof all these Is oug qua, which Is a squash with odd convolutions, and of weird, grayish green coloring. There Is a bldom on It like tho bloom on a peach, and Its i hulls very tender. "Him good to rook," ex plained Ah Moy. "Cook, boll, belly nlco to cat mi' rrood for nlcklo." La qua and cha qua aro distant relatives of ong qua. Cha qua Is a cucumber covered w Ith furry seines nnd about four times as big as our ordinary gherkins, it Is boiled and eaten like squash or pickled with spices. La qua Is a small squash much used for tho making of sweetmeats. It Is cindled nnd put away dry In boxes, Ilka candled ginger. Dak tol Is an oild sort of vegetable To an Ameri can It Is a combination of cabbage, celery and cauliflower. Ah Moy says: "You cook him, frv a llttlo or boll." which aro probably as good as any other ways of serving bate tol. Tho heart of tho vcgetablo it like the heart ot tbo cauliflower. Itsetalksare white and ro scmblo celery stalks, and at the top they broaden out Into a very fair Imitation of a cabbage leaf. There Is another variety ot tol known as gal tol. This Is like the other, with the ex ception that Its stalks aro green. It Is used for boiling, cabbago fashion, and Is also put In sdup lllto okra. Tho sugar cane, called gam chlah, is a lino thing for a man to cat who wants to havo luck. Fan-tan players aro very fond of ft. Tho cane may he eaten raw, but ft Is best pickled and fried In lard. All of tho distinctly Chinese vegetables have tho peculiar tastes that all Chinese foods show when brought Into contact with tho American palato. Thoy aro usually bought up and cooked beforo thoy have tlmo to decay. A Storv on tlin Mnrquls. A'tio York Sun. Thcro are more good stories told In Now York tbau In any other part ot tho world, and tho cafo ot tbo Hoffman Uouso Is ono of the favorite resorts of tho rccoutcurs. Tho other afternoon a party of actors and newspaper men wero snapping yarns at one of Its tables when a favorlto comedian told tbo following at tho oxpenso of a noblo "hid" of fistic fume: "An Eugllsb friend of mine was telling mo Inst night of n slumbering trip ho mado recently with tho Marnuls of Gooseberry. Thoy took lu Baxter, Mott, and several other streots ot like unsavory reputation, and finally landed ou tho liowcry. 1' ccllng tho uccd ot a llttlo heavy wet, thoy wont Into a saloon, 'Tho barman.' said mv friend, 'was what you Americans call a regular tough. He was waning ou a ioi oi customers at ino oinor enu ot the bar, and it was not until wo had called him twice that ho deigned to give us a glance. Ho seemed to conceive an Instant dlsuko of my friend the Marquis nnd showed It plainly byjsnecrlngly asking, "Well, give It a namol" 'I'll go an egg Hip," said tho Marquis. "'Oct on to lilt Jags 1' insolently remarked tho follow to his pals at tbo othor end of the bar. They turned toward us, and looked us all over very superciliously. As they did so, tho bairoau accosted tbo Marquis In a most ruflianly manner, saying: 'Yeh'll go what?' " 'I'll go an egg dip,' repeated the Mar quis, with n trace of temper In bis words. Tho barman noticed tho fact, and, doubtless wish ing to ralso a disturbance, responded: 'You'll go to Sheol that's what you'll do.' Tho Marquis was astonished at the fellow's Impu dence, hut ho Is a man ot great determination, bo bo nxod his eyo firmly on tboto ot tho bar man, and then answered hltu in tho most post tlvo manner: 'I shall do nothing ot tun kind,' After that he turned on his ncol, and we both walked out ot tho door." This can hardly ho a true story, for Howcry bartenders don't, at a rule, euro to drlvo trado away from their saloons, aud If "Clooseberry" was (juoensbcrry tho story would hardly have such a lame and Impotent conclusion.
