The superiority of The Herald\u2019s news is so well and widely known, and the paper is growing so rapidly in popular favor, that we consider it unnecessary to call attention to its contents by

the States.CARTWRIGHT AT BOSTON.He Speaks of the Advantages of Inter- Continental Trade\u2014Convincing Arguments, BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE.BosroN.Jan.30.\u2014At the Merchants of Boston Banquet this eveniag SitRichard Cartwright was the principal speaker and was warmly received.He spoke,as follows \u201c Im response to the toast, \u201cReciprocity Between Canada and the United States\u2019: ** The trade ot the United States is certainly worth more to us colleciively than ours is to them.That is a manifest truth, but go is this also\u2014free trade with Canada will benefit quite as many of the people of the United States a8 of the people of Canada and to quite as large an extont.Man for man, you will gain quite as much as we will, and Canada does not come as a begrer asking for the crumbs which fail from the rich man\u2019s cable Canada offers, and Canada desires, only a fair exchange and no robbery.Moreover, I believe, indeed I know that free trade with us will be of great value to the entire northern portion of the TUmited States and trebly so to the people of New England; even as it is, your trade with Canada is not to be despised.We buy as much from yod as France does, and more than any other country except Great Britain and Germany.I think, in fact; we stand third on the list of countries to which you export jour produe- tions.and we alone, 5,000,000 as we are, buy as much as 50,000,000 of Mexicans and South Americahs do all put together Surely if we do this in the teeth of two hostile tarifis, it is no .idle word of mine to say that you cannot measure or bound the rossibilities which lie before both countries if only these artificial walls were broken.North of Lakes Erie And Ontario and of the River St.Lawrenca, and east of Lake Huron, south of tha 45th parallel of latitude, and included mainly in the present Dominion of Uau- aL 4, there is as fair 8 country as exists onthe American continent, nearly as large ivzarea as New York, Pennsylvania and Otio combined.and equal tf not surarior as a whole to those States in agriculturat capability.Itistheland wbere grows the finest barley, which the brewing 1n- terests of United States must have if it -ever expects to rival Great Britain in its auncal export of 11,000,000 peunds of malt products.In raises and grazes the finest of cattle, with qualities specially desirable to make good the deterioration of stock in.other sections, and its climatic conditions, created by an almost encirclement of the great lakes, especially fit it te grow men.Such a country is one of the greatest gifts of Providence t) the human race-better than bonanzas of silver, of rivers whose sands run gold.Now if this be approximately correct, and I honestly believe tt Js, I think 1 may claim that we have something to give as well as you, and that there is very good reason to think that between two such countries as yours and ours there is room for much profitable exchange.\u2014\u2014\u2014 ew THE

Mr.Charles Bradlaugh, & sulicitors clerk, was born in the East End of London, Sept.28, 1833.He was educated at elementary schools in Bethnal Green and Hackney Road; and afterwards bezamse successively errand boy, coal dealer, Sunday-school teacher and a freethought lecturer.In Dec., 1830, he enlisted in the 7th Dragoon Guards and served for some time in Ireland.He becams or- derly-room clerk, got his discharge, and in 1853 returned to London, becoming clerk to a Mr.Roger, a solicitor, Ha- Virg become confirmed in his secularist c Views, lebegan write and lecture regularly, adopting the Nom de plumes of \u201cIconoclast\u201d by which name he became widely known to the readers of that great radical organ Reynolds\u2019 Weekly.His connection with Mra.Besant in the trial over their joint production \u201cThe Fruits of Philosophy,\u201d also tended greatly to make him widely celebrated and while perbaps over rated on the one hand by social reformers and the discortent«d section of the working classes, he was in Conservative and religious circles rerhaps the beat abused man of the day.The Radical shoemakers of Northampton adopted as their champion the man who with bitter tongue and caustic ren was forever scarifying the inflated claims of the aristocracy and the Cnurch and sought him as a parliamentary representative.There nave been few bitterer contests in England that that which then took place.The old town was divided into two opposing camps and what appears to ouisiders as relentless war betwe Church and State on the one tideand temporarly alliance between the forces of refcrm radicalism and re- voluticn took place.After several hard fougbt battles the upholders of Bradlaugh succeeded in seating him and in conjunction with Labouchere Le was sant to St.Stepbene.The fight was not, however, finished and the efforts made by the church party to prevent his taking a teat have become matter of history.The commitice appointed to examine whether he had the right to affirm, pronounced by one voto in the negative.He was refused permission to take the oath; but persisted tiil he was forcibly removed from the House and committed to the custody of the sergeant-at-arms.He was sued for a penalty for sitting and veting, being unqualified, and in return £ued Mr.Newdegate for \u201cmaintenance,\u201d and got a decision against him.Thrice he resigned his seat in order to appeal to his constituency against the House, and wes thrice,after fierce contes\u2019s, re-elected.The Affirmation Bill was then brought in, and in spite of one of Mr.Gladstone\u2019s finest speeches, was lost by a majority of three; and finally after the Parliament of 1880-85 was dead, Mr.Bradlaugh \u2014who bad been again elected by North- ampton\u2014was allowed to take his seat in peace.As an orator Mr.Bradlaugh had few equals in his line, and his name of \u201cIconcclast\u201d was well fitt:d to the rowerful speakerfand clever writerjwhose life seemed tn be one continuous and sledge hammer attack on allthe old idols of the people.In features he was stern, rugged and almost repulsive, but when with a face almost inspired as he detailed some wrong, real or imagined, of the people, or made a fierce attack on the pevsion list or some other objectionabla feature of the British Constitution it was quite easy to understand his dominating influence over the fierce, deep-thinking, more or less uneducated democracy of England.Mr.Bradlaugn perhaps went to extremes in every point, but the great battles of reform against old time- honored customs are not to be fought with scented squibe, and with all his faults be will pe found to have rendered real service to the old land, where \u2018\u2019free- dcm slowly broadens down from precedent to precedent.\u201d -\u2014\u2014 Tithing to be Opposed.BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE.Loxpoy, Jan.30.\u2014The Radicals in the House of Commons have determined to contest tbe Tithes bill.The Government was in hopes that the measure would go through with but slight opposition and remove in a larger degree the ground for dangerous agitation now existing in Wales and some districts ia England.At present the tithe for the benefit of the clergy of the established church are collected from the occupiers of land.In Walesa formidable opposition to this collection bas developed among tenants and troops and sheriffs possess bave been employed to overcome it.The Government proposes to make the tithes payable by the landowners,leaving tbe landowner to adjust the matter with his tenants.ee Crazy and Committed Suicide.BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD, Kixasrox, Jan.30.\u2014The clothes of the man who committed suicide at Sharbot Lake Wednesday have been identified by John Castle, of Almonte, to belong to bis brother, James Castle.The deceased left home one week ago, saying he was going to visit his brother who lives near Sharbot Lake, and secure work if pos- .sible, and being unable tn secure work it is thought he became insane at times.He showed mental derangement for a few months.\u2018I'he body has not yet been recovered.-\u2014 Wouldn\u2019t be Without it.Mr.Alfred Roberts, Manager of the Dominion Railway Advertising Agency, 79 King St.W.Toronto, Ont., Juue 1, 1888, writes as follows: \u201cI desire to testify to the efficacy of St.Jacobs Oil as a sure remedy

Secretary Windom\u2014His Former Life in the West, BY ONR SPECIAL SERVICE.WasxixGrox, Jan 30.\u2014The Treasury department is the only one closed.This department was closed by direction of tLe President.President Harrison was early astir, and denied himself to all visitors.All the members of the cahinet now in the city, Secietaries Blaine, Nobl-, Proctor, Rusk, and Postmaster- General Wsnamaker were early callers at the executive mansion, and ramained with the President until lata in the afternoon, aiding him by suggestions in the preparation of the execative order aun- rouncing Secretary Windom\u2019s death, and in making preparations for the funeral, which it is urderstood will occar on Monday.Private services for the family will be held at the Windom residence, No.1422 Massachusetts-avenue, and public services at tte Church of the Covenaut on Connecticut-avenue.The interment will be made in Rock Creek Cametery, the President and Post- master-General Wanamaker baving driven out this morning and selected a lot for that purpose.This arrangement is not however, final, 23 it depends to some extent upon the arrival of Mr.Wm.D.Windom, the late secretary\u2019s son, who is supposed to be in Baton Rouge.A telegram was sent to him last night, but up t1 noon t)- day no response has been received from him, and it is not kvown whether the telegram reached him.1t is hardly probable that he can reach Washington in time for the funeral on Monday, and it may be deferred until Tuesday.Young Mr.Windom is quite ill and is now in the South fur the benetit of his health.1t is recalled as an evidencs of Sacre- tary Windom'\u2019s consideration that when his grandchild died about two weeks ago facretary Windom, not desiring to have his son hear the news, requested the two press sssociations pot to make public the fact of Lis granchild\u2019s death.Mr.Windom will doubtless tirst hear of his father\u2019s death through the newspapers.Windom in Early Days.SPECIAL TO THE HERALD, £r.PAUL, Minn., Jan, 3U.\u2014The news of the sudden derth of Secretary Windom, and especially of the extraordinay circumstances under which it took place produced a profound sensation of sorrow here, where he was so well known, and his talents were so highly appreciated.It was in this city that he acquired the mercantile training which stood him in such good stead in after life, and which gave to bis mind the inclination towards finance that decided his iature career.In local banking circles his untimaly demise is particularly regrettad, for it was felt that his pressncs in the Federal administration was a solid guarantee that the fiscal policy of the Republic would be guided in a direction which would ensure the commercial prosperity of the country.His selection by President Harrison as the chief of the Treasury Department at Washington gave general satisfaction throughout the whole Northwest, aud was particularly gratifying to the paople of Minnesota, whose staunch Rs- publicanism received through his appointment a well merited compliment.The popular rejoicing with which the President's choice was received was not, bowever, confined to those who belonged to the \u201cGrand Old Party.\u201d Democrats vied with their political opponen:s in publicly expressing their satisfaction at the honor which had been conferred on the \u201cNoith Star\u201d State.Several prominent Republicans and Democrats were Interviewed to-day by tbe Montreal Herald correspondent in reference to the sad event, Every one to whom he addressed himself expressed heartfelt sorrow over the death of the Financial Secretary.\u201cHis lugs is irreparable,\u201d said a well known leader og the Republican party in the state.His breadth of view, the masterful grasp which he had of every financial question, great or small, and the zeal with which he grappled with every subject connected with his department, showed tbat he was a patriot above all things, nd that his politcal predilections had but little influence with him whenever the interests of the country seemed to him to be affected.\u201d Archbishop Ireland, who is a power in the Republican party here, was seen at his residence.\u201cTo me,\u201d he said, \u201chis death has come as a personal calamity.Mr.Windom was an old and valued friend of mine.I have watched with great interest his public career.I have always been proud of bim as a Minnesotan, who reflected credit and honor vpon the State which he represented in the cabinet.I do not know any one in the whole Northwest who is capable of replacing him.Whenever 1 bad occasion to go to Washington J always mada it a point to call upon Mr, Windom, and to bis friendship, no Jess than to his senee of justice, I owe many of the favors which I have been instrumental in obtaining for my cc-religionists in this State.\u201d - Messre.Kelly and Doran, the Democratic \u201cbosees,\u201d were equally outspoken in their tribute of praise to the departed statesman.The secret of Mr.Windom\u2019s' popularity lay in the happy svavity of manner which characterized him in every phase of society and political life.He was to some extent what the late Matthew Arnold would call à \u201cbou viveur,\u201d but he wss nevertheless a man of methodical habits, and he seemed to ba thoroughly imbued with the commercial spirit of his nation, A TERRIBLE DESASTER, 300 Chinese Lose Thelr Lives on a Burning Ship.BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE, SAN Francieoo, Jaa.30.\u2014The steamer Riv de Janeiro arrived last night from Hong Kong.8he brings details of the burning of the steamer Shanghai on the river Tangtse Kiang, by which 300 Chinese lost their lives.The steamer ieft Chin Kiang Dec.25 with over 40u Chinese and one foreign passenger.When only a few miles up the river smoke was seen coming out of after bold, where a cargo of cotton was stored.Water was played on the hatches hut this soon fell in and great volumes of flame and smoke burst throagh.The second officer then attempted to go forward, but found the Chinese hud- dlee together in so dense a crowd that he could not get through, but was forced to crawl along the outside rail.As soon as the flames became uncontrollabie the steamer was headed for the bank of the river, which was reached in a few min- vies.Many Chinese wera burned tn death, while others jump»d overboard and wera drowned.\u2018The European officers and passengersescaped to the shore, but were stripped of their clothing by the villagers and the same fate befell tbe Chinese passengers who escapad.ALD.STEVENSON, Something of Interest to the Electors of the West Ward, A circular bas just been issued which reed as follows: On reference to a file of The Herald of October 30, 1888, a report of the Council meeting which determined the Fire Chief question will be found, and the divisions show as follows:\u2014 \u201cAld.Robert, seconded by Ald.Pre- fontaire, proposed E.May.The division was 18 nays, 15 yeas, Ald.Stevensun voting yea.\u201d \u201cAld.Cunningham, seconded by Ald.McBride, proposed Beckingham.The division was 17 nays, 16 yeas.Ald.Stevenson voted nay.\u201d For the information of those who are not familiar with the rules of procedure in the City Council we wish to say that a reconsideration of any vote in tbe council debars the candidate from being again eligible, for the appointment to which he has been proposed, for one year, and that Was what Col.Stsvenson also voted for in connection with the Heigham nomination.It is a matter of public notoriety that, owing to the obstinacy of Ald.Stavanson many improvements in the Fire Department wera delayed, that all the suggestions of the underwriters were trea\u2018ad lightiy, and it was only when public exasperation reached its highest point that Ald.Stevenson yielded, and the improvements in the department were obtainad.As an instance cf the unbusinesalike ways of the chairman, instead of purchasing one type of fire engine for the city\u2014with interchangeable parts\u2014 we have a dozen different kinds of steam fire engiues, with the consequent extra cost of repair.It is urged tbat the chairmaoshiw of the committee will be lost tthe Fnglish if Ald- Stavenson ig not re-elected.This we deny.: One year ago Ald.Steversan could not have secured twenty-five votes in the West ward for re-election.What has be done sihce then to deserve a change in the opinion of the electors in bis favor ?Nothing.What Col.Stevenson is said trhave dons for the Fire Department is totally overestimated.His opponent, Mr.George Wait, is a merchant who has succeeded in business \u2014a gentleman who hes quite a pecuniary stake in the city\u2014interested in kcaping down taxation, and his business knowledge will be of great vatue to the city.We want this class of men in the councii.The Rossin House, Toronto, This palatial hotel, situated on the corner of King and York-streets, convenient to the railway stations, Posi- office and business centre of the city seems almost too well known to need a word of praise; but when one is haud- somely used in every respect\u2014well fed, put into a comfortable room, and in every respect treated almost as if he owned the hotel\u2014it is only fair that tome notice should be taken of such kindness.\u2018I'he hotel in every particular is a first-class one and will compare favorably in point of 8iza and equipment with ary hotel in this Dominion or the United States.In addition to this it is the only botel in the Dominion in which due consiceration is had to ventilation and draivage.It has a huge chimney through which all gases are forcibly driven np, so that there is no possibility of sewer gas or smell, a very important feature.It has à frontage of 250 feet on King-street, the principal street in Toronto, and 200 feet on York- street, leading down to the various railway depots.1t is five stories high, can accommodate 400 guests, has an excellent dining-room, with a first-classs \u201cchef\u201d and sets a table surpassed by no hotel, The management of the Rossin House is personally supervised by Nelson Booker, ably assisted by such men a8 Wm.Beery and Thos.Skelsey, who spare no pains to make the stay of every guest as pleasant as possible, consequently there 1s a home-like feeling entertained by frequenters of this popular hotel, that makes it vimply delightful.It is a recognized fact that few travellers visit the city (Toronto) who do not make the Rossin House their headquarters.A Clever Capture, BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE, Wixpsor, Jan.30.\u2014Officer Nash of Windsor and Dective McDonnell of Detroit have made a clever capture here by arresting a young man named La- doucier, who is charged With being connected with the robbery of $7000 worth of diamonds from the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York on Nov.29.Ladoucier came to Windsor a few days ago.He was seen on the street by Nash and Mc- Donnell, who arrested him.When searched a megnificent diamond bracelet and pin, valued at $1000, was found on his rerson, together with a small sum of money.He said he committed the crime and that his partner was locked up in East Saginaw.Ladoucier is about 22 years of age and well dressed.Hs says that as soou as the New York authorities arrive he will tell them where TREND OF TRADE.No Great Change is Noticeable in America.SPRING SALES IN ONTARIO.Rather Dull in the Province of Quebec, But On the Whole There Is No Disconr- aging Feature.New York, Jan.30.\u2014Special telagram 3 to Bradstreet\u2019s point out only where general trade has expanded, noticeably during the past week.In industrial lines makers of seasonable dress goods at Philadelphia are running their machinery at full capacity, in some instances being reported behind in orders.Cincinnati wholesale clothiers have dis- | tributed large stocks and look confidently abead to a profitable season.Safe, wagon and buggy makers and whisky merchants of that city are meeting with a large demand.Jobbers in boots and shoes, hats and caps, dry goods and rubber goods at leading interior cities, Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City and St.Louis, report those staples in fair demand, with rather less activity in groceries, drugs and hardware.Rice is taken readily at advancing prices at the South.Delays by Louisiana planters in making cortracis with:factories havechecked general trade somewhat at New Orleans.The decline in wicter wheat state demand for general merchandise bas stimulated wholesale Louses to extend their territory.Omaha, particularly, having fzlt the need of colder weather through the West, has stimulated general trade since.Southern buyers of dry goods appear backward.Cotton goods prices are firm, except as to print clothes which are weak.The winter's trade in woolens lacks snap ; wool is in ouly fair demand with steaoy prices.Cotton is less active; 1-16¢ lower on increasing pressure of eupplies.The crop movement continues to favor maximum estimates.Business failures reported to Bradstreet\u2019s number 271 in tha United States this week against 357 lest week and 236 this week last yesr.The total from Jap.1 to date is 1631 against 1628 last year.Bank clearings at 55 cities in the United States for the week ended, Jan.29, are $591,028,003, a decrease from this week last year of 12 per cont., pointing in part to the effect on trade of ths storm which wrecked the telegraphic service as East- ero cities.New York city\u2019s clearings, which constitute 58} par cent.of the grand total, are 2j} per cent.less than these for the same period last year, while at 54 other cities the gain is 2 per cent.The stock market has been improved in tome and temper by the decreasing prospects of dis- turbirg financial or other legislation.The slow progress of the Western Railroad Association attracts unfavorable commen- but the general share market is sustained by the ° ease of money.Bonds are in good da- mand.The money markets geu- erelly throughout the country are exceptionally easy, in fact the heavy in- create of surplus reserves at New York points to a not altogether satisfactory demand for funds, though at a few points west and south there are proportionately far less surplus funds beld by the banks.In the Dominion of Canada the disiri- bution of staples is apt to be relatively meet active in Ontario where wholesalers report large sales of spring goods.In the Province of Quebec trade is qnita dull, though money is easy and prespects are for iw provement.Collections generally ars somewhat disappointing.Shce manufacturers at Montreal and Quebec City are busy on spring orders.The Dominion of Canada had 59 failures this week against 56 last week and 50 this week last year.The total number Jan.1, to date is 235 against 210 last year.es \u2014 THE SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION, \u2014\u2014 Vazious Topics of Interest Discussed Yesterday.The Sunday School Union resumed its meetings by devotional services conducted by Rev.W.H, Warriner.At 10 o\u2019clock business was commenced Mr.8.P.Leet in the chair.An unfortunate misunderstanding arose in connection with the committee's report on the work of Rev.J.McKillican, the agent toissionary of the Union.In the report the following paragraph occurs : \u201cIothis end the committee made to the agent two propositions 1st That he should retire from official connection with the union on a retiring allowance; 2nd That he should receive less salary and devote lest time to the work of the Union; and at the January meeting it was resolved to offer Mr.McKillican a salary of $800 per annum, commencing with January instant, to include expenses, and Mr.McKillicap, to devote nine months to the work of the Union under the direction of the committee: This it is expected, will enable us to employ the services of à paid secretary for a sufficient time to keep the convention and institute work in a heaithy condition.\u201d Mr.Leet then stated that Mr.McKilli- can bad accepted the second proposition but Mr.McKillican stated that Mr.Leet was mistaken.He had not accepted that offer, #5 he understood the expenses were to be allowed bim.The matter was referred to a committee of rural delegates to meet the Executive Committee.Miss Wheelock, the famous Kindergarten teacher, then gave an interesting and instructive object lesson on \u201cThe Footprints of Jesus.\u201d Miss Wheelock at once took hold of the audience and her talk was carefully listened to.The election of officers was then proceeded with, with the following result: President\u2014Mr.G.W.Read, Treasurer\u2014Mr.G.H.Reid.Secretary\u2014Mr.8.P.Leet.The following, besides the presidénts of the county associations, are added to the list of vice-presidents\u2014Ven.Archdeacon Evans, Dr.A.B.McKay, Revs.T.G.Williams, 8.I.Rose, A.G.Upham, JE.Hill, and Dr.McV.car, of Montreal; Rev.Dean Taylor, of Sbawville; Rev.E.J.Rexford, of Quebec, with power to the General Committee to add to their num- er.General Committee :\u2014 Dr.Kelley, J.A.Bazin, Geo.Vipond, R.H.Buchanan, J.the rest of the stolen jewelry

Huntingdon : Rev.Dean Sanders, of Lachute; Wi.Addie, of Sherbrooke: Rev.S.G.Bland, of Quebec.The afternoon session was opened with Rev.&.P.Rose in the chair.Mr.R.H.Buchanan gave an address on \u2018 How to interest the children in Miegsionary Work.\u201d He introduced some statistics in showing the growth of the Missionary spirit throughout the world the past few years, and spoke of the importance of spreading Missionary literature throughout the Sunday Schuol and recommended special objects for tbe children to give to.1.Shaw, D.D., L.L.D., gave a echolarly address on \u201cThe Bik w= Teach.\u201d The first thought that strack one on opening the Bible was its amnaz- ingscope.He then dweit on the remarkable preservation of the Bible during the past centuries.It is au important book as the only guide to thought , and practice.After the singing of a hyma Dr.Shaw \"took the chair and introduced Kev.W.- F.Cruikshank.Mr.Cruikshank said he would make a slight change in whe prograw, instead of giving a gformal address a conference on \u201cDifficulties and Discouragements in Sunday-School Work.\u201d Many of the delegales presented their difficulties among which were, to keep boys over 15 iu the school, interesting the rarents, the mischievous boy, and the discouragements caused by the thought that no good has come of one\u2019s teaching.Following the difficulties came an address by the Rev.C.Bland of Quebec, on \u201cEncouragements in our work.\u201d The teacher finds encouragement io the thought that he is working in the line of Divina inspiration, and again in the character of the book, God hes said that His word shall not return unto Him void but shall accomplish that for which it was spoken.Another cause for encouragement is the influence which the teacher sees Christ is gaining over the scholar and it is most encouraging when afier long years of waiting, a scholar ccmes and tells that through the early instruction given by him, the scholer was induced to give his life to Christi The concluding featare of this session + wad the talk on \u201c Supplementary Lessons\u201d by Dr.Hurlbut whica were 80 called for want of à better name the doctor

Jeroboam, Elijah and the Prophets of Baal and other lessons which will be taught in 8 week or two.Remember, said Miss Wheelock, that from first to last it must be a prayerful lesson.Daring the whole of the address, the attention of the audience was rivelted on the speaker who throw ber strong personality into the address Dr.Hurlbut then gave a summary of the rewards of the teacher inter- &persed with those happy illustrations for which he is so famous.The teacher is rewarded by the recreation he obtains in teaching.It is generally the poor people who are busy during the week who teach in Sua- day schools.They receive new thoughts and find strength and life when they arise on Monday mornins.There is also reward in the contact with young people.Ome who always lives and associates only with old people becomes prematurely old.Contact with a Sunday school class rejuvenates them.The teacher also has his reward in certain clearness and sharpness of his knowledge of the Word of God.He also gains the infinite treasure, the love of his echolar.There must be soms reward in the gradual improvement of the scholar when he sees that the work is not all in vain.Principal MeVicar, in moving a vote of thanks to Miss Wheelock and to Dr.Hurlbut, said their teaching bad been clear, precise and powerful, The motion was seconded by Dr.Douglas, who congratulated the speakers on baving attracted

TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD, ParersoN, N.J., Jan.30.\u2014Clifton race track managers-George Engeman, John Engeman, William Engeman, A.H, Bat- tersby and Charles Sass\u2014were each sentenced to-day to serve one year in State prison at hard labor, and to pay a fine of $500 each, for maintaining a disorderly house at Clifton.The offence was in permitting betting on the track.Counsel for the managers asked the Judge to fix the amount of bail in error.Bail was accepted in each cass for $5000 and the managers were allowed to depart.The cases will now go to the uprer courts.The Passaic County Agricultural Association was fined £500 on each of the two indictments charging it with maliptaining a disorderly house at Clifton.Charles W.Thomas, the well known pool seller, was fined $500 for keeping a pool room here, and committed until the fine and costs are paid.It is thought Thomas canuot raise the amount of his fine, Cowardly Horses Injected, Trainers on the other side of the Atlantic have taken notice of the action of trainers kere in giving their horses an injectlon in order to give them courage in a race.The following is what a turf writer in London bas to say on the subject: There are various methods practised of trying to overcome cure rishness or cowardice in horses that will not run gamely.Whisky is the commonest, but a few horses have preferred port, and at different times other drugs and tonics have besn used.It is, I confess, a new idea to me to hear of a horse being subjected to a surgical operation before his dispatch to the post, and of that operation, moreover, being attended by the best resulta, There is a horse celled Ormie running in the States\u2014at New Orleans\u2014who has had tbe reputation of being able to go if he pleases, but of never being pleased.Ormie is described, by a sporting corres- poudent, as a brute of the obstinate,sulking kind; his ordinary disposition being to run in the rear, no matter what the company.He ran in that fashion in four races after a recent meeting there opened; but on the Thursday, to the surprise of everybody, he ran with the utmost resolution, and won the best race ofthe meeting, beating the local seven furlong record by one and a quarter seconds.This is the explanation: \u2018\u2018A trainer at the track bas a fluid decoction, and a portion of this was injected into Ormie\u2019s shoulder just before going to the post, and to this anolication 8 attributed his remarkable performance.Tne trainer referred to told me he had seen the fluid tried in a dozen of cases and it never failed.Whether it has the remarkable \u2018potency claimed for it or not, certain it is, its effect on Ormie was nothing short of remarkable.\u201d Now of course we want to know what this fluid is.Perhaps by the time Ascot is bere we shall find trainers equipped with bot:les of the stuff and implements for its use, and every animal that runs will try.Big Pools, In the notice of Poolseller Frank Hum- mells death, now going the rounds of the papers, is attached the statement that he sold more and higher pools than apy other man in America, barring only Cathcart of the old Louisville exchange.Such is not true, as the biggest pool ever sold in America was knocked down by the late Dr.Underwood, originator of the auction pool system of betting on horse races.The pool in questiou was sold on the Saratoga stakes at Saratoga in 1866, aad amounted to $15,000.Ruthless, the favorite, brought $7500 in this pool, and in the race was left at the post.Redwing who sold for $1500, winning.The noted sporting man, Henry Colton, bought Ruthbless in this famous pool, while Barnard, afterward of the M\u2019Daniel confederacy, held the winning ticket on Red- wing.The largest ticket ever sold by any other man was a $11,000 pool on the Sa- ratoga cup race of 1875, which resulted in the historic dead heat between Preakness and Springbok.In that pool the latter brought $4500, while the former only sold for $515.The late Robert Cathcart was the auctionesr on this occasion.LACROSSE, The New York Club Sore About the Slurs Put Out.BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.New York, Jan.30.\u2014Capt.G.Johnson Bradish, of the New

the spirits of California Atbletic Club members, At first it was not credited, but on bein: confirmed, deep was the sorrow evinced at his defeat.With the exception of a balf dozen members who favored the lanky Antipodean, the California Athletic Club ridiculed the idea of the Nonpareil\u2019s defeat.Of this you may be as- sured\u2014no loser ever received so much sympathy by the aforesaid club, and on his return to bis home in Oregon, if he £tops in Fan Francisco, he will be tendered a benefit.The Olympic Club has already tendered him a position as ins structor.\u201cA son of the late Joe

rotective Order ot Elks, issued a proclamation to the 180 lodges of Elks in the order, summarily suspending John L.Sullivan from mem- berehip and forbidding sny lodge to admit or recognize him.This action was based upon charges made by L, M.Had- den of Cincinnati and George A.Angston of Mausfield, Ohio, against the Newark, New Jersey, lodge which received Sulii van into membership.After considering the facts, Dr.Quinlin declined to suspend the Newark lodge and thus panish innocent members, who were blameless in the matter.* The facts on which Dr.Quinlin acted are these: On Sept.30 the Sullivan company played in Newark, and his petition was presented to the lodge for member- bership, he giving New York as his residence.As there was no lodge of Elks in New York City, Suilivan\u2019s petition did not bave to be forwarded for action.The Newark lodge telegraphed to Frank Mc.Donough, of Hoboken, District Deputy of New Jersey, for a dispensation to confer the degrees upon \u2018Sullivan, the acsor,\u201d pot knowing that it was Joha L Sullivan, the champion sluggur.Mr.McDonough answered by tal- egraph, granting the permission.No.sooner had John become an E'k than the fact was sent over the countr by the associated press, aud it created indignation and disgust wherever there was a lodge of Elks.Ag long ae John conducted himself properly and kept sober and continued to be \u201can actor\u201d and not a slugger, there wag no redress.But shortly after he became an Elk he showed his brotherly love by playing with Brother Duncan Harrison in one of his festive moods, A few weeks ago Sullivan was in Milwaukee, and in one of bis drunken moods he slapped a reporter once, and at the theatre at night e made a speech boasting of his brutal achievement.There is in Milwaukee one of the larz- est lodges of Elks in the country, haviag 400 members composed of the leading citizens, including Gov.Peck and ths leading railroad, commercial, and professional men.They were humiliat d by Brother Sullivan\u2019s performaaces off and on the stage.Early in November Dr.Quinlin started for the Pacific coast and was absent 10 weeks to make official visits to the lodges in the far West, Ha has just returned, when the facts as stated above were laid before him.He has suspended Sullivan and requested Newark to proceed to try him on ths charges preferred by the parties namad, Letters and telegrams are nourlag la from every quarier thanking and congratulating Dr.Quinlin in being the first man that ever knocked Sullivan out.TRE RING, A Serious Probability that Gibbons and Bowen Will Not Fight, The New York Sun says:\u2014There is a trong probability that the match be- tweenAustin Gibbon,of Paterson,N.J.,and Andy Bowen, of Now Orleans, wil! be declared off.The articles of agreement which were signed by Bowen and Gibbon\u2019s representative stipulate that the men shall fight at 133 pounds, give or take two pounds, and weigh in five hours before the battle.Bowen has changed his mind about this clause and now refuses to fight unless the weighing in is done five minutes before the fight.He also says that unless Gibbons will agree to weigh in at the time specified entirely nude, he will not fight him.The articles of agreament were perfectly sa- tiefactory to Bowen prior to the Dem p- sey-Fitzsimmons fight.A number of sporting men who were present at the Gibbons-Cushing fight told him of ths disparity in weight that existed betwesn Gibbons and Cushing when they met to battle for the 121 pounds champlouship.Five hours before the battle Gibbons was eaid to have weighed 128} pounds while Cushing tipped the beam at 126} pounds.The fight was delayed several hours, and when Gibbons entered the 1ipg he weighed 137} pounds.Gibbons is a large-framed man an | could easily fight as a middleweight if he so desired.He is much taller and longer in the reach than Bowen, and, in addition to this, is cleverer.These fact bave been impressed upon Bowen\u2019; mind by several of the visiting Northern sporting men, and Jack Dempsey\u2019s parting injunction to \u201cBantam,\u201d by which rame Bowen is familiarly known, were not to fight unless the weighing-in clause was changed.Both Austin Gibbounsand his brother and manager, Jim Gibbons, are shrewd match-makers and want the long end of the rope every time.When Gibbons left for New Orleans little over à week ago he weighed about 146 pound:.It is thought by those who know him tbatte will be unable to get down to weight and be strong.He will make a strong fight for the articles of agreement to be carried out, and in the event of Bowen's refusal to fight will undoubtedly claim the forfeit, The men were to have fought at the Audubon A.C.of New Orleans for a $300

I would not run a third term, but I never said that I would support Mr, McShane,\u201d \u201cHe would ever remember with gratitude and kindness his true friend Mr.Mc- Shane, who upon this and every

remarkable treasures, the la3 one recently found on the English coast being the Secret Log-Book of Christopher Columbus.But more of this in 1822.Mr, Lawrence Barrett is now personating the title role of his new tragedy, \u201cGuido Ferranti,\u201d at the Broadway Theatre; author anonymous.It 18 a well written play in verse and has for its theme vengeance.The Duke kills Guido\u2019s father, and Guido, with thse aid of a confederate, is determined to assassinate the murderer of his father.But this wicked old Duke has a young, and lively, and much abused wife whom Guido falls in love with, Beatrice by name (Miss Gale).In a moment offrenzy this lively woman kills her husband, and Guido turns his back on her because she has blood on her bande.She immediately accuses Guido.He is brought to trial, falsely confesses, and is condemned to the block.Beatrice visits her lover in the prison cell, takes poison, and as the curtain falls they die together.Mr.Barrett does admirable work, and depicts the conflicting passions with great dramatic force, adding dignity and giving value to many eloquent passages in the author's verse.Miss Gale as Beatrice, did excellantly well in the quieter words of her lovemaking; the lady is somewhat uneven in parts requiring the tragic fonce, yet as a whole is acceptable.The ensemble ia gocd.Mr.Barrett has carefully staged \u201cGuido Ferranti,\u201d and it ia satisfactory to carry out the illusion.The Auditorium of the Broadway is filled with well pleased audiences who receive play and players in a manner that evinces their liking.The Tiffany Fan Collection embraces eighty specimens from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and is valued at between $10,000 and $12,000.In the lot are fans from nearly ali the best known European collections, including those of Walker, de Laney, Pelonze, Speger, Stephani, Riviere, Boas, Mallet.Aullier, Bienaime, Gunekel and Fabien.A number of these fans could not be duplicat:d ontsils of museums, notably four Vernis Marten painted in 1720.The four are from th de Lancy collection.The painting is 0 .ivory sticks, which are heid together bv ribbons and the colors are strong and brilliant.The subject of the painting are \u201cLe The\u201d \u2018Jardin de Versaille, \u201cEsther and Ashuerus;\u2019and\u201cAntony and Cleopatra.\u201d A Louis XIV.painted in 1670 is one of the most valuable of th collection.The sticks are of pearl, Inlaid with %rubies, sapphires and amethysts.Most of the sticks are cut through, leaving a most delicate tracing.The covering is of parchment and tho subject of the painting is \u201c Le Cavalier Blesse.\u201d A rare specimen on account of of its case covering is a Louis XV.Three lace panels are gkilfully wrought into the general design of the covering, and on these dainty pastorals ara painted in good colors.Only five of the fans ia the collection are mounted on shell sticks.I Lave not yet heard what disposition will be made of this interesting collection, whether it will be broken up or go altogether to some art lover of fans.There are comparatively few fan collections in this country, though some of the best specimens in existence are Leld by Americans.The late Mrs.John Jacob Astor had probably the finest group in this country.In the National Museum of Art there are some fine examples.The largest and finest collection of fans in the word is to be found at the Louvre in Paris.The Stanford Sale of Trotters now being held at the American Insti.tate in this city is attracting a remarkable amount of public attention.The horses bred in California by U.S.Senator Stanford are by prominent Polo Alto gires, including Electioneer, Piedmont, Nephew, Norval,Clay, Whips and General Benton.There is special interest in the horses possessing the blood of Electioneer,which shares with George Wilkes the honor of baving begotten mora trotters in the 2.30 list than any other sire, The children and grandchildren of Electioneer are generally \u201cline trotters.\u201d Their action is of a very pure and elastic character.\u2018The Turf, Field and Farm\u201d in an exhaustive editorial upon the subject says : They keep their legs well under them, yet the concordance of the rear and front action is such that there is no interference, even when the greatest effort ig put forth.This enables the horse to gather and deliver his stroke with more directness and consequently more rapidity and power than ia the case with a borse who sprawls in his action.Many horsemen attribute the great speed of the Electioneers and the rapidity with which they develop it to this peculiarity.Just where he acquired this trait it is difficul to determine, and it is probably oue o those happy peculiarities that individuals of all families are liable to inheri from hidden ancestral influences, which occasionally has the effect of making th recipient superior to other members o his family.And while upon that most interesting subject, the horse, I may add a schema is now being carried out by Mr.A: H.Morris of the racing firm of J.A, & A: English sires.The four sensational horses of last season\u2014Salvator, Potomac, Fireazl and Tenny\u2014were the result of this systam of mating.The scheme involves a large expenditure of money, hat if the fruit of this aystem shoall prove to be as fine as it ought the scheme wl Pay, for the prizæs of the American turf are now s3 rich that a fortune is t» bs made in winning stakes.Mr.Morris declares that their main purpose is not to make money.The object is to improve the American thoroughbred if possible, and the best way this gentleman thinks is to get the choicest and most highly prizad English blood.At Dunmore, in Essex, formerly the property of Lord Rosslyn, and

having served this world renowned restaurateur for 25 years, and at present the manager of the branch house at 341 Broadway, bas been induced to give to the civilized world Lis secrets for aslight consideration.The secrets are in book form, and are published by Chas, L.Webster and Co, 3 Fast Fourteenth-street, New York City.This work, is called \u201cThe Table\u201d How to buy fcod, how to cook it and how to serve it is endorsed by the Leimonicos.Mr.Filippini\u2019s experience in culinary art is probably greater than any living man\u2019s, He has prepared menus for many grand dinners given by the crowned heads of Europe.The results of a l.fe-time are here embodied.It is infinitely greater than a mere cook-book, for while it gives many more recipes than any other work of the kind ever published, at the same time it contains valuable advice as t» how to try what is best and most economical, and how to dress a table and serve meals.ln large families the price of the work can be saved daily by following Mr.Filippini\u2019s suggestions.Ore of the exceptional features of this boox is the fact thatitis adapted to the bumblest as well as to tbe grandest style of living.This book cannot be bought at the bcok stores.Messrs, Webster & Co., will send 1t to any address, bound in oilcloth.the Kitchen edition, at $2.50 per volume.The publishers are in extasies over Mr.Filippini\u2019s work,and address the people thus : Rejoice, ye weary wives, and ye still more weary husbands, who sit down, day after day to the familiar (also, too familiar) soups and joints and desserts, and sigh that there, is nothing new under the sun.Rejoice! there is balm in Gilead.The great Filippini has come to the rescue.He has ingeniously prepared 365 different menus, one for every day in tbe year, which are so suggestive of everything good that their perusal alone is sufficieut to keep one good-nat:rcd for a week, and which at the sama time, are so simple and practicable that they will bea boon to all the housekeepers throughout the land.\u201d Garden and Forest.A journal cf horticulture, landscapes, art, and forestry, conducted by Prof.C.8.Sargent, is a desirable and most instructive addition to the library table from which place one may learn how to successfully cope with the works of nature as expressed in the jewels of outdoors, the flowers that go so far towards refining mankind.The Winter Fashions, The closing of fashionable basques and over-dresses, when made diagonally or in double-breasted fashion, are rendered more conspicuous by the use of frogs or loops, which are rapidly gaining favor over all other means of closing.Some of the frogs are double, while others are one-sided, the latter being formed of the usal cord or passementerie ornament and loop,which is fastened ovar a single olive or crochet button sewed to the opposite edge.When small frogs are selected, as many as eighc may ba used effectively both 1or utility aad for ornament.Of course, these decorations are anplied exclueively upon cloth gowns that are made in tailor fasoion, aud they are frequently arranged upon skiris as well as basques.Op a modish walking toilette of mixed grand and black cheviot flecked with white, frogs are used on skirt and bodice with admirable effect.The skirt is concealed by a drapery that Fits With Sheath-Like Closeness?at the front and sides, and is arranged to fall in fan plaits at the back; and a row of single cord, frogs and olive buttons is applied at each side to modify the rigid effect, which might in some instances prove unbecoming.The basque is adjusting to fit with perfect accuracy.Coattails are formed at the back, and three frogs and olive buttons are sewed at their inner edges.The fronts are reveraed in lapels at the top by a rolling collar that meets them in notches and the closing is made in double-breasted fashion with frogs and olives.The coatsleeves rige \u2018with the fashionable cnrve over the shoulders and the inside of each wrist ig decorated with these frogs and olives.The pattern calls for a chemisatta of the material, but in this instance a chemisette of black-and-white linen, having a clcse curate collar and a black-and-white four-in-hand tie are worn instead.The Ornamental Qualities of gold are fully recognized by fashionable women; the long reign of the yellow metal clearly proves this.Good taste, however, still demands that it be applied in reasonable quantities.À pretty trimming that may be artistically used in various ways on black, dark blue, brown, and, in fact, any of the dark colors, is composed of inter-twined loops of gold caught down to a straight edeing.Dainty designs are woven in flat gold galloons with colored beads.On one rich specimen a floral pattern is wrought with gold and steel beads, the latter beads edging the band; another is studded sll over and edged at one side with brown beads; another gold band is wrought with gold clair de lune beads; and still another is studded with jet sequins, Then there are still narrow galluns composed of three thin lines of white and gold, the gold lines showing pearl beads.Similar galluns are also made of gold and steel and of goid and jet, and are tastefully used to decorate pretty Bengaline and wool goods, being applied only in the basques of woollen costumes that ace developed in seventy simple styles.Narrow jet trimmings are also studded with jewels for cloth and silk costumes, round, smoothly polished turquoises being preferred to the cut,transiucent gems, because they are less \u201cstagey\u201d in appearance, and are infinitely mure becoming and appropriate, especially for woo! dresses.bas a skirt cut demi-train.The lower edge is slashed to form tubs three inches deep and three inches broad, between which shows a plaiting of dull-rad silk.With this skirt is worm a graceful H.Morris, of sending the best brad and 1-1 22 = ttle.test ae jacket basque that has & dull red wag raised, the Messrs.Morris Keep : and perfectly equipped for their pet pro- | added to the upper edge of the collar and the front edges of the jacket froats, and is continued about the bottom beneath the slashes.The basque is lined with red, the tubs being run round oa tha wrong side aod turned.This combdina- .tion is effective and will prove espscially becoming to biuaettee.The union of mushroom and brown produces a wonderfully delicate effect, cue hue apparently intensifying the other.Crepe de Chine, in a dainty shade of primro:e-yellow 18 one of the most popular fabrics cow in vogue for evening wear, Occasionally a gown of the softly falling goods shows facings or under- plaitings of robbin\u2019s-egg blue, silyer- gray, ivory-white or pale willow green.Crepe de Chine is no longer the costly material it was, even when its hems ara bordered with Marguerites done in white silk floss with hearts of yellow a shade or two deeper or richer than the hue of the goods.Toilettes of crepa de Chine usually have full waists with Lalf-low tops, a .standing ruffle of the material veing apparently adjusted by a draw-cord to arrange this finish.Baby sleeves, or sleeves reaching to the elhow and finished with tucking or flouncings of yellow blonde lace accord admirably with waists of this kind.Evening gowns from Paris are accome pavied by shoes, stockings, gloves, gauze or feather fans and hand- kerchiefe.The handkerchiefs are wrough in a color matching that of tha * toilette to which they appertain, while An attractive tea-gown of China Silk \u2018 the other accessraies are in harmonious contrast if the costumer so decides.Among the fashinnable blues for the coming spring, there w1!l be a faded hue like that seen on a peasant\u2019s blouse; Pa- lissy-blue, which is a dull shade not unlike Canton-blue; and of course, tue- quoise-blue.Positive colors will also be seen, but the hues ef last summer will be less aesertive in the wardrobes of womankind.BETSEY BANCKER.HERALD

gaingt those who would discuss any irade question with Yankees,and the copi ous flow of superheated loyalty.It will occur to many of the reasoning men who have hitherto followed Sir John\u2014the ledger loyalists excepted\u2014that a negotiation which is advocated by every public man in Great Britain who speaks on the subject, and which the English Government favors and is most anxious to assist can hardly be treasonable to anyone but the old man.And though long exemption from contradiction and many years ofservile adulationfrom colleagues, contractors,ambitions Conservatives and a spoon-fed press have had their usual effect upon one whom advanciog years has deprived ofseveral former attributes still treason to Sir John\u2019s personal interest, may be; and generaily 18, compatibie with the warmest loyalty and the purest patriotism.Speaking roundly we should say that the one wasevidence of the other.The position may be summed up in a few words.Canadians desire to trade with the Americans.Sir Johnis under obligation or coercion to prevent it if possible.He had hopes of doing #0 and of saving his office by mistifying the people of Canada concerning\u2019the views of the States.Some Liberals ara determined that this excuse shall he removed if they can remove it, and they are taking steps to find out what the Americans are willicg to do.Sir Jobn and his press are furious and call them traitors.a THE REFORMATION OF CRIMINALS.The Philadelphia Ledger, in discussing the State\u2019s dealing with criminals, very properly takes the ground that their reformation, as well as their punishment, should be kept in view in enforcing and administering the criminal laws, if society is to be adequately protected from the crimes and offences of the wrongdoer.Some of the States, Pennsylvania for instance, carry out the discipline of their State\u2019s prisons on this principle, which is also to some extent recognized in the management of the penitentiaries of Canada.It is quite clear that unless criminals are treated in the light of this principle they will leave their cells at the end of their sentence as bad as when they entered them, if not worse.Governor Fifer, of Illinois, bas been giving this subject his attention.In speaking of his knowledge of the conditions as they existin his own State, be says that the man once sentenced to prison is as on?who, entering bis cell, \u201cleaves all hope behind him.Practically nothing remains to him but a lifelong war against society.\u201d This is bad for society and it is worse for the man He recommends among other things that sentences to prison shall be indeterminate; that is, the criminal having been pronounced guilty the punishment shall begin at once, but the length of it shall not be arbitrarily fixed by the jury or judge, but virtually by the prisoner bimself.As The Ledger puis it, \u201cif he shows to those who are daily observant of his conduct, and who should Jearn something of his daily thought and feeling, thathe has really repented of his offence\u2014that he is earnestly desirous of putting erime and criminal associations bebind him, and of leading an honest, useful life\u2014his term of imprisonment should be probatienary, and, it being ended, he should be put in the way cf self-support, aud subsequently encouraged to de well and to retrieve his loat place or to gain a higher one.\u201d Considerable space was given to discussion of this question of indeterminate sentences in the report ot the Minister of Justice of Canada for 1888, with general approval of the principle involved.It is to be hoped Sir John Thompson has not lost sight of it.The idea should be crystalized into legislation with a view to giving fuller scope to the reformatory side of prison life.The idea i8 nota new one; earnest philanthropists have frequently urged it in various forms, and public opinion seems to be growing ripe, if not already ripe, for its adoption, \u2014_\u2014 CHICAGO TO LIVERPOOL.The New York Maritime Register does not take much stock in the big scheme which is being talked up in Chicago, to run ocean steamers from that city, through the St, Lawrence river and ard canals to Europe.The Register admits that \u201citis quite possible by a system of canals to connect the St.Lawrence river with the great lakes and thus create a direct steamship route to the ocean.Yet this would not be a desirable route.It would be of great length and for at least six months of the year would de closed to all traffic on account of ice.\u201d Our New York contemporary ignores the fact that the system of St.Lawrence canals already existe, and when enlargements now being carried on are completed will afford safe navigation for vessels drawing fourteen feet of water from Duluth and Chicago to Montreal, and thence to and across the Atlantic.No doubt by a considerable expenditure of money, these canals could be deepened and enlarged to accommodate still larger vessels, but whether the resultant advantages would warrant such an expenditure remains to be seen.But as things will be when the St.Lawrence canals are all deepened to fourteen feet, the Chicago scheme is not so very chimerical after all.Ît is of courte à drawback that the St.Lawrence route is closed for five months in the year, but during the season of navigation it is undoubtedly the shortest and cheapest route to Europe for all that section of the American Northwest tributary to Chicago and Duluth.The Register's proposal is to enlarge the Erie Canal into a ship canal, that, it thinks, will give Chicago better connection with the sea than will the St.Lawrence route, and, as that journal says, \u201cwould have tbe advantage of being within our own country.\u201d This indicates pretty clearly that the advocates of the Frie Canal route are little jealous or afraid\u2014per- haps both\u2014of the St.Lawrence route.What Canada requires to do besides deepening of St.Lawrence canals to fourteen feet, is to pay particular attention to the buoying, lighting and signaling system of the River and 'Gulf of Bt.Lawrence in order to make it an absolutely safe route.That done and freer trade established with the United States the trade of the American West and Northwest wouid flow through Canada in an ever-widening stream, giving employment to our steamships and railways and people, contributing to the de- , velopment of our country and benefiting our neighbors across the International boundary line, and particularly in the Western States.The improvement of the St.Lawrence route is of much greater importance to Canada just now than the subsidizing of any new railway schemes, or the building of ship railways of\u2014at the best\u2014doubtful utility.\u2014 HOW THE FARMERS ARE HIT.The morning organ of the Government in this city a few davs ago, lectured farmers for glutting the cattle markets with inferior stock, and gave as a probable explanation that * feed is high and farmers want ready money.\u201d The Huntingdom Gleaner, which may be assumed to know pretty accurately the situation of affairs in the rural distincts, says The Gazette\u2019s explanation \u201cis correct\u201d; that the farmers have no grain to fatten either hugs or cattle, and further intimates there is a danger that milch cows will comes out in the spring winter poor, thereby lessening the make of butter and cheese next season.Our contemporary adds: \u201cIf would be a great boon to farmers, if the duty on Western corn was taken off, which would enable them to get cheep feed.That they should be prevented from making the best of their stock by a set of politicians who are maintained in office by the manufacturers, is regrettable.\u201d Yes, the combine manufacturers have the Government by the throat.So far as fiscal legislalion is concerned the former practically govern the country\u2014in their own interests, of course, and until they and their political wetnurses are hurled from power the farmers will continue to pay tribute and suffer from the exactions of the tariff, 2-04 THE GAZETTE: Signor Grimaldi, the Ita- Han finance minister, announces a deficit of sixty millions of francs for 1591 and anticipates others of forty million a year for the next three years.The day McKinley goes to call on Bismarck, our Sir Richard Cartwright should set out to do homage to Grimaldi, Don't you think it would be advisable also to include those Tory Finance Ministers who, since Sir Richard Cartwright's regime, scored the heaviest deficits recorded in Canadian history, and that notwithstanding an enormous increase of taxation.How do $2,240,000 and $5,834 ,- 600 sound for deficits ?a Tux Baltimore Sun of Jan.26, contains an interview with Capt.Rollo of the THE MONTREAL HERALD, SATURDAY, JANUARY 31, 1891.Donaldson Line steamship Alcides, in i which Mr.Plimsoll\u2019s charges anent the live cattle trade are very emphatically contradicted and denonuced.Capt.Rol- lo's views are endorsed by Capt.Mec- Nicoll of the Allan steamship Cazthae~ genian.The Sun, commenting editorially upon the matter, admits that Mr.Plimsoll is a well-meaning man, bat refusing to allow bis sentimental impulses to be governed by practical considerations, his humanitarianism is coaverted into a fad.That is about the size of it.\u2014_\u2014 Mr.W.A.REBURYN, the well known breeder of Jersey cattle, proposes asa mean of reviving the quality of Lower Canadian cattle that a certain number of thoroughbred Jersey bulls should be sent into the rural districts.The Lower Car- adian cow is a small animal and hardy, but it has fallen off considerably in milk- giving quality and has seriously degenerated from interbreeding.By sending thoroughbred balis into the country districts & vast improvement would be made in a few years.We understand that the Government has before it a proposition dealing with this matter.If so, it is well worth their serious consideration.Gf Tue awful suddenness with which death overtook Secretary Windom at New York on Thursday night, and the circumstances under which the sad event took place, constitute a very impressive comment on the uncertainty of life.He was a man of solid attainments and marked financial ability, and ocecu- pied the post of Secretary of the Treasury under the late President Garfield.His death will be regarded as a national quite as much as a party loss, and will no doubt be severely felt by President Harrison and the deceased gentleman\u2019s Cabinet colleagues.Some particulars respecting the deceased statesman will be found in our telegraphic columns.\u2014 row Tuk cable announces the death of Mr.Bradlaugh,who at one time was the most violently abused man in England.His agnostic opinions, his association with Mrs.Besant in the production of the book known as the Fruits of Philosophy, and his memorable struggle with the Tories uuder Sir Stafford Northcote for bls seat in the House of Commons made him notorious; his perseverance and victory 'in the defence of the rights of bis constituency and his subsequent career in the House made him famous.Though risen from the ranks literally and figuratively , his bearing was so gen- lemanly and courteous and his conduct in Parliament so upright that he ended by winning the esteem of many of his former bitterest opponents.He was essentially a tribune of the people and had he begun public life earlier would no doubt have been associated with all the greatpopular reforms.a When he was a youth in Cadiz He played on the Spanish guitar, He became rather bold to the ladies And was sent home to Mama.There are very grave doubts as to Sir Charles Tupper having the Spanish treaty in his pocket.Years ago, in point of fact once upon a time, as we are con\" stantly reminded in the history colamnsg of a neighbor, Sir Charles was created a special Ambassador Extraordinary, and Envoy Plenipotentiary to Spain in order that he might have more dignity and so impress the Spanish Don and obtain a treaty.We understood that he had received a Spanish title, as monarchs, ambassadors and such like do receive orders and titles from the Courts they visit, and that he was now known in Europe as Don Carlos Tupperez, but we were called to account by a ministerial journal for so speaking of the High Commissioner and so, a8 they say here, we quit.But it is quite true about the Cuba dignity.It was thought that Sir Charles could not put on airs enough without some more gold lace to meet the hidalgos.More dignity was required.Sir Charles could be trusted to put forward the benefits of trading with Canada.If it -came to satretch- ing a point or two, Sir Charles it was felt could do it as well as any man, and with sufficient dignity conferred by the crown could meet the Spaniard on his own ground.But like the country worthy who tried claret instead of his usual stronger potations, Sir Charles did not get any forrarder, The Spanish Dons bowed with a Castilian dignity, smiled with the sweetness of Andalusia, stroked their pointed beards, toyed with the handles of their swords, and delayed; to-morrow.In Spain, as in Ottawa it is always \u201ctomorrow.\u201d Sir Charles joined in the merry cachuca, played upon the tinkling guitar, took his part in the festive fandango, visited the merry bull fights and heaved sighs with the dark-eyed beauties as they walked 1n the moonlight by the banks of \u2018the G'uadelquiver and shot glances at bim from beneath their mantillas, but he never got down to business.Let him propose what he would, the grave excuse or the merry laugh always said one thing : tomorrow.And 80 we do not believe he has got the treaty at all.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 A Kansas farmer recently sent this rather mixed order to a merchant in the county town.\u201cSend me a 8ack of flour, five pounds of cofe, and one pound of tee.My wife gave birth to a big baby boy last night, also five pounds of corn etarch, a serew-driver.and a fly-trap.It weighed ten pounds and a straw hat.\u201d \u2014\u2014\u2014 VICS AND OTHERS Meet Mr.McShane at the Windsor at 4 p.m.Saturday to organize for St.Antoine Ward.ST.ANN'S WARD.Yote for Thomas Conroy for Alderman.Smoke Noisy Boys 1890 Cigars.Smoke Noisy Boys 1890.Cigars.Smoke Noisy Boys 1890 Cigars.| PER app Carsley\u2019s Advertisement SATURDAY, JANUARY 3._ STOCKINGS Given away for 19c.STOCKINCS Thrown away for 21c.STOCKINGS Taken away for 25c.STOCKINGS By the hundred for 30c.STOCKINGS By the thousand for 35c.STOCKINGS By the million for 40c.STOCKINGS To suit the world for 50c.S.CARSLEY.LS BARGAINS BARGAINS BARGAINS Bargains in Axminster Carpets.Bargains in Wilton Carpets.Bargains in Brussels Carpets.Bargains in Tapestry Carpets.Bargains in Wool Carpets.Bargains in Union Carpets.Bargains in Jute Carpets.Bargains in English Oileloths.Bargains in Linoleums.Bargnins in Carpet Squares.Bargains in Mats and Rugs.Bargains in Everything.At S.CARSLEY'S.S.CARSLEY 1765, 1767, 1769, 1771, 1773, 1775, 1777 NOTRE DAME STREET MONTREAL Armours Pork, Beef Canned and Smoked Meats, Oils, Glues, Extract of Beef and Vigoral Held in Stock, Free and in Bond, by JAMES ALLEN Sole Agent Armour & Co., Chicago.WHOLESALE TRADE ONLY SUPPLIED Office and Warehouse : 5 Custom House Sq., Montreay SALES RY AUCTION.\u2014_\u2014 - UNIVERSITY-ST.The Three Story Brick Corner House, No, 56 University-street, just above St.Catherine- street, 28 feet wide, and lot 95} feet deep ;

Names of the 650 Masqueraders and the Dresses They Wore.The annual carnival at the Victoria Skating Rink has for many years been one of the chief events of our Montreal season and looked forward to with a keen anticipation by young and old, and unlike many other events of similar significance it is placed beneath the reach of all by the mod:rate prices charged for admission.The crowd which availed themselves of the event last evening was a large one and the enjoyment of both spectators and skaters were much enhanced by tbe beautiful weather which wes ideal for a fancy dress carnival, neither too cold nor yet mild enough to make the ice soft, although it cut into water towards the end of the evening, The decorations were most tasteful and were composed of bunting and strings of Chinese lanterns hung in graceful festoons throughout the entire rink.The ornamental red paper shades placed over the arc lights made the effect still more mellow by softening the light and imparting to it a warm tint.The ice was in beautiful condition.The beauties of a fancy dress carnival haye to be seen to be fully appreciated.They cannot be done justice to in & written description.\"There are few persons who have so little sense of the artistic in their compositions a8 not to be impressed by the graceful and everchanging scene combining motion in all its attributes of poetry and velocity \u201cwith the kaleidoscopic changes and vivid coloring.All tastes are pleased ; the admiration of the beautiful, the grotesque, the realistic, the ideal, are cultivated with recollections of the rest in costumes and traditional and anticipations of the future in the person of angels and Mephistos.Then the ludicrous incongruity with which the costumes are grouped regardless utterly of time or place always gives rise to amusement, while the massing of colors which are vivid with others which are sombre, render the mise en scene pleasing to the eye without being extreme the one way or the other.Last evening\u2019s carnival was remarkable for several things, notably the decrease in costumes which were grotesque ov vulgar, the increase in those which were representative, and the care with which they were prepared, enabling the beholder to arrive at a definite idea of what they are intended to portray.There were fewer conventionalities and \u2018more novelties, and taste and grandeur were prominent in nearly all the costumes.A more enjoyable carnival, from every point of view has never been held, and the habitues of the rink are to be eon- gratulated on the success of the affair in all its details.GENTLEMENS\u2019 LIST.P Armstrong, clown.M.Armstgong, page, reign Charles II.G H Ausley, Irish tenant J R.Archibald, cavalier.E Armstrong, fancy dress.E Armstrong, Jack

There isn\u2019t any word in the dictionary that could do her feelings justice but this one.\u201c What's the matter?\u201d asked Jack, Mrs.Brown\u2019s husband, who, with his feet on the top of a book-shelf, and his head half buried in the soft pile of a big easy chair, was lazily reading the evening paper.\u201cMatter!\u201d replied Mrs.Brown with an angry red spot at the top of both cheeks, producing a large laundry bag, opening it and spreading out the contents\u2014* is this not too mean, and shameless, and vexatious for anything ! \u201cLook at these curtains \u2014 just new, you may say\u2014frayed, torn, and as yellow as a stale cabbage.Look at my collars and cuffs\u2014 hardly a thread of them left together, and my lovely damask table cloths totally ruined with those dreadful, dissipated looking, dirty old stains.Oh! I could Is there no law in the country ?Jack, can\u2019t we do something to these people 2 You are laughing at me, sir,\u201d and indignant tears stood in Mrs.Brown's eyes.Jack was a man of great patience.He was a member of a Browning club, and there was a large bald patch on the top of his head which told its tale of sorrow and of Browning.\u201cMy dear child,\u201d said Jack, with the air of speaking from the top of a philosophical mountain ten miles high \u201cI don\u2019t want your philosophy, Jack,\u201d broke in Mrs.Brown, \u201cI want my beautiful things that that wretched laundry has destroyed.\u201d \u201cI was about to observe, my dear child,\u201d said Jack calmly, \u201c that the saddest thing in the world is\u2014 Barnum.You can have Barnum in a calf with six legs, or you can bave Barnum in a laundry which, claiming to have MODERN FaciLr- TIES, ruin your clothes.You can have Barnum in politics, and Barnum is very visible in our municipal elections this year.Very sad, Arabella, that your beautiful faith in hur an nature should receive so rude a shock.I was like you once, Long before I knew you I had a friend.She wore curls.I believed in them.- À day came when I saw those curls in process of manufacture with the aid of brown paper.Tears of anguish welled from my orbits.Then I became a philosopher.The moral of that laundry bag, Arabella, is\u2014LET FIFTH RATE PEOPLE SEVERELY ALONE.They CAN'T do your work well, because they haven\u2019t the MEANS to do it.The MONTREAL STEAM LAUNDRY is, of course, à MODERN establishment.Anybody knows that.It is open to the public for inspection.It does all the public work \u20141I mean railway and hotel work \u2014and almost all the private work in the city.It does it well, because it has EVERY AID to do it well.I always told you that was the place to go.\u201d Mr.Brown didn't exaggerate.We shall be happy to show our patrons what is meant by MODERN APPLIANCES at any time.They mean PERFECT WORK, which it is a physical impossibility to produce without them.The MONTREAL STEAM LAUNDRY CO.(Limited), corner St.Ansoine and St.Genevieve-streets, Telephone Nos, Bell 580.Federal 1683.WALTER TOWNSEND Railway

THE CANDLER REPORT GIVEN TO CONGRESS.Official Recognition By Theo Chinese Gov- ernment\u2014Thirty-Four States Have Fallen Into Line\u2014State Appropriations At The Centennial \u2014Seventy-Four Acres Under Roof In Jackson Park\u2014Magnif- cent Water Palace.FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT, CurcaGo, Jan.30.\u2014 The anxiously- looked for Candler reportto Congres has at last been banded in.Itisall Candler and po committee.He states go himself.He criticises, and tosoms extent we think properly, the large salaries of the commission officials.He objects to 115 ladies to look after the interests of women at the fair.Since that board was arranged, by its energy and work it has proven to be about as important a factor of the Expositicn as the National Commission itself.Its importance at first was not realized.Healso thinks that the National Commission has overstepped the authority that Cougress meant it to have, that practically the Exposition should be managed by the local directory and that the Commission to a great degree should be simply a spectator.Todo this would be to de-nationalize the Exposition.This is contrary to the true nature and conception of the enterprise.The report has been ably answered in ihe House by Commissioner Lindsay, of Kentucky.In all it will not have the effect that was anticipated.It is not expected it wiil influence legislation pro or con.The Japanese Minister has informed the lady managers that three ladies of rank in Tokio ars ready to co-operate with them in furthering the interests of toe Exposition in Japan.The United States Minister has officially announced that the Chinese Government has decided to take an active part in the Exposition.At present it appears that her exhibit will be of such a nature that it will effectively unite the interests of the two nations.There is a move in Pennsylvania to reproduce a fac-simile of old Independence Hall.Philadelphia is expected to contribute many rsvolutionary relics.A bill is being introduced in the Legislature to appropriate $100,000 for a State exhibit.New York Legislature is considering a bill appropriating $250,000 and the appointment of a board of seven commissioners to look after the State's exhibit.Nebraska's Lagislative Committae has (irculated an address asking for $150,000 as Nebraska's gift to the Fair.Colorado\u2019s Legislature will be asked to appropriate $100,000 and appoint a board of 81X commissioners.In all twenty-foar of tha States are preparing to make appropriations ranging from $10,000 to $1,000,000.At present it is not easy to comprenend the amount of money that will be expended in Chicago in preparing for 1893.In every State great Interest i3 being taken in the appropriations, and all are anxious to know what each State appropriated for the Centennial.It will answer many questions if we here give the amounts which have alter some rains been secured from the official records: ATIZONE.00000000 0000 arsncscsuve +00 $ 5000 Arkansas.ve

Isabella Association organized and sent letters to women artists of all nations, soliciting their membership and iaviting them to hold congress here during the air.Commissioner J.D.Mitchell of Wia- congin and Assistant-Secretary Brower of Pennsylvania have resigned.The last official Report of Commission of Architects has been adopted by tae Committee on Buildings and Grounds, and provides for an area of 74 acres under roof in Jackson Park, and the plans are so arranged that an additional 30 acres may be added.The Chicago Lady Managers bave petitioned that their buildiog be placed on the Lake Front, The last allotment to the Lake Front is five buildings, v1z:- Art Palace, Decorative Art Building, Water Palace, Electrical Display and Music Hall.Of all these the Water Palace will be the gem.It will be constructad of stael and iron from the foundativn to the crystal dome.It will be a circular hall 250 feet in diameter, surmount:d by a transparent dome of falling wa er.On the summit, 250 feet high, will ride the facsimile of the three yessels whose voyage of discovery began tke civilization of the New World.About 50) people at a time can stand on the decks and view beneath them a globe of moving watar sparkling in the sunlight.Adjacent will be a moat containing naval exhibits of the historic hattle ships of the Republic.It is now feared unless Congress passes & measure to prevent it, that Chicago will be over run by at least 500,000 destitute beings during the Fair.This is being brought about by the nuscrapulous emigrant agents, who are haldinz out the 10- ducement of plenty of work and high wages in Chicago in preparing for the Exposition.Should this be allowed the peace and order of the city during the year of the Fair would be imperiled.\u2014 \u2014\u2014 Smoke

your correspondent who:e communications on the above subject appeared in your 1ssues of the 22nd and 24th instant, consequent of your report which appeared in your issue of the 17th instant of my recent experiences at s>- called materializing seances in Poston, New York and Philadelphia; but lest pilence on my part might give consent to the theory enurciated in those communications, I beg the favor of being allowed to make the following remarks: Whilst not believing in * materialization,\u201d that is, the assumption of the \u201c mortal\u201d body by the spirits.Iam a perfect believer in \u201cetherialization,\u201d that is, in phantasmal apparations, there being thousands of attested records of such being seen both in doors and in the open air, by two cr more witnesses at one and the same time ; indeed on three or four occasions lately, I have myself, in conjunction with a few f riends, at a private house, (no paid medium basing resent) seen distinctly a luminous hand Hoating in the air, with certain other equally marvellous psychological phenomena, and this under the severest test conditions! I accapt nophenomena as an investigatingspiritu- alist.except under conditions which admit of no po sibility of fraud, with which alae, spiritualism is, I regret to say, too much mixed up.There are many spurious dolla?bills and coins, but that fact does not negative the existence of the genuine ones.Your correspondent says, © Ghosts or wandering spirits are never in the materialized form; only in the sablimated state,\u201d and that is just what I maintain.The Apostle Paul says, \u201cthere is a natural body and there is a spiritualbody,\u201d but to suppose that spirits can assume the natural body, such as we all possess whilst on this mundane sphere, such as having heart, liver, luns and flesh and blood, 18, I consider, an insult to common sense and reason.; Your correspondent refers to \u201chostile skeptics\u2019 and \u201cspirit grabbers; \u201d\u2019 now I beg to say I am neither one or the other; 1 went to the seances with the hops and belief that I should af last see real materialized spirits, having seen all other psycholegical phenomena but so called materialization, and I came away as your reporter said, disappointed and disgusted.Your correspondent in gup- port of the theory of materialization, quotes from some work on the subject, supposed to be from the pan of the late eminent scientist, Professor Faraday of England; now if there be such a work, and I read a great deel, I ¢nfess I have never heard of it, and should like mu:n to know the tit'e of it: perhaps your correspondent would kindly let me have the perueal of it tor a short time: AN I can say is, that if there be such a book it is to be hoped your correspondent has accidentally misquoted from it, for eurn un-mitigstéd trash as some of the statements I never met with, such for instance as, \u201caffinity, in the true sencè of the word, means our spiritual counterpart, who is supposed to be existing in another planet, but who \u201ccomes to meet us as we leave this world,\u201d etc, ete.Ce Great Scott! thunder and lighting * the idea of our \u201cSpiritual conternart, whatever that may mean, existing la FHE MONTREAL HERALD, SATURDAY.JANUARY 31, 1891 another planet!!! according to that, our spirit is split up, one part being on earth, and ita counterpart in some planet!! I say again it is to be boped that the eminent scientist mentioned, has been accidentally misquoted, for if not, I should feel strongly disposed to say to him, if be were still in his material form, what Festus said to the Apcstie Paul, when brought before King Agrippa, \u201c much learning hath made thee mad!\u201d To bring the matter to a practical standpoint, I am ready to put up $100, if your correspondent, or any co-believers will do the same, and bring any medium they like, male or female, and if one siu- gle form materializes and demrterializes in the house of any person of repute in Montreal, I will readily forfeit the money and at once acknowledge my conversion to materialization.l am aware that some will say, \u201cOb, wagering would interfere with the conditions, make the medium nervous,\u201d and so forth.I say no; nothing of the kind, as it would not be necessary for the medium to know anything about the wager.Apologizing for taking up so much of your valaable space, though I don't see how I could have made my communication much shorter, I remaio, etc., etc, ERNEST J.CRAIGIE.Imay add Tam no \u2018\u2018spirit grabber,\u201d for it was by the consent of each and all of the so called materialized spirits (aad 1 felt some 15 or 20 of them both wale and female) that I brought myself in contact with them.[Coasidering the manner in which Mr.Craigie tested the materialism of the female spirit who claimed to be a former friend, described by him in his first letter, we really hope that those ladies of the 15 or 20 who invited him to satisfy himself as to their actuality are not fair representatives of female modesty in the spirit world.Ep.HEraLD.] 0 THE MAYURALTY, Hon, James McShane vs.Mayor Jacques Grenier, What Mr.Grenier What Mr.Grenier said on Jan, 1C, 1889.says now.He would ever remember with gratitude and kindness his true friend Mr.Me- Shane, who upon this and every other occasion was always a gentleman and a patriot.(Cheers.) When his term of office was over he would support Mr, McShane, who,he was certain from his acts to-day, would be elected by acclamation.He knew that Mr.McShane would, make a good mayor.He was a clever and talented Irishman and in_ the person of Mr, MeShane the Irish peopie of Montreal would have their torn,\u201d When a few weeks ago,it became evident that Mr.McShane was going 10 run for the mayoralty, Mr.Gre nier was seen by a Herald reporter and reminded of a certain speech, an extract of which is given in the parallel column.He at once replied : \u2018I never said that I wouid not oppose Mr.McShane, or that he would be elected by acclamation.What I did say was that unless the cilizens desired it, I would not run a third term, but I never said that I would support Mr.McSaane.\u201d BANKERS, BROKERS, ETO, RIDDELL & COMMON Chartered Accoantants, 22 ST.JOHN STREET Commissioners for New York State an the Canadian Provinces.A.F.iddelL W, J.CoMMoN, JAMES BAXTER, 120 ST, FRANÇOIS XAVIER STREET, MONTREAL fommerclal Paper Bought Aävances made on Warehouse Receipta.Real Estate Bought, sold or Ezchanged HALSTED & McLANE, BANKERS AND BROKERS, OFFICE, 31 BROAD-STREET, NEW YORR: J.C.SIBBALD, fwmorter and Commission Merchant Steel Re Is, Iron, Metals, &c.Agency for Canada for the Marks Automat] Oar Coupier, Miltimore\u2019s Car Wheel Dressing Machine.146 BROADWAY NEW YORK.MacDOUGALL BROS., STOCK BROKERS.69 St.Francois Xavier Street Members Montreal Stock Exchange.Members Chicago Board of Trade.Agents for Alex.Geddes & Co., Chicago.rain and Provisions bought and sold ror or hare on margin.CHARLES R.BLACK, Accountant, Financial Agent, Auditor, Trustee, &c., 30 St.John Street, MONTREAL.Bel!

On-An Historical Disquisition on the Vagaries of Fashion Accounting for Many Fads.It seems that trousers originated ip the Gall.c nations that finally overthrew the power of Rome.When the Roman Emperor Aure.ian led Tetricus, the bar barian, in triu:nph, the latter was arrayed be omingly in a pair of $3 bracche, Boston not then having been founded an l the word \u2018\u2019pants\u201d consequently unknown, The fashion thus introduced into Rome was a plant of slow growth.the Romans believing that any division in the garment below the waist was a mark of vifeminacy.Gradually, however, as luxury became rampant, the trouser-leg became more pronounced and close trousers became the general costume, Alexander the Great hada twist in his neck.It was therefore fashionable for every onein that munareh\u2019s court te carry his neck in the same way.The practice of the Cardinals of Rome of wearing red hats at ceremonials and process.ons was introdu-ed by Pope Innocent IV.as a symbol to indicate the readiness of the Cardinals to spill their blood for Jesus Christ, The use of powder originated in the fancy of a French mountebank, who dredged his head with flour in order s¢ emphasize his tdicey.Tue peruke is said to be due to the misfortune of Philip, Duke of Burgundy.His hair feil out, and his paysi- cians advised him to cover his head with artificial hair, which he did, and thus set the fashion.One day Francis I.of France was struck on the chin with a piece of tile.Of course, the wounded part could not beshaved.Thus beards came again into fasaion, after having been out for nearly a century.Once upon a time Charles VI.of France gave a masquerade ball, and he and five of his courtiers took the part of satyrs, To do this artistically they were clothed in loose linen habits, besmeared wita resin and then stuck all over with down.One of the company, in a frolic, lighted one of the satyre with a torch and, in consequence, four of tiem were burned to death.This is supposed to ve the origin of the tar and teaiber custom.Caarles VIL of France had a pair of ill-made legs.Heo wore a long coat to sonceal them.Result: Everybody else wore long coats, Peter tae Great adopted rathera novel mea s to convince his subjects that they sho TH caan ge tare clothes to conform witia the modern costumes of Western Europe.Beieviug, as is well known historically, chat tne future greatness of Russa dopoude l'upon the facility with which it Was made to assimilats all that wus besy iu Oùhey countries, he had sue- cecudedun intro lucinzso.ne important innovation into the half-civil.zed region vvër whic 1 hé hellsway.At leagia he had paticrns ef cleth hung up ai tbe gates uf tae towns, and those who did not conform to the tashions thus tet, were docked puslicly.Albeit this was done in as pleasant ua manner as possible, for Peter believed in Le ng good-natured with his people.They, on the other had, loudy demurred and used the argument that what was good enoug:1 for their forefathers was good enoug for them.\u201cVery well,\u201d sad the saizacious Peter.In 1703 he gave a dinacr ac Moscow to celebrate the mar- riaze Où One of his jesters, and insisted that it should be conducted in strict conformity with ancient usase, There had formerly \u2018Leen a superstidous suston of not ligating a fire on a weddins So Peer made them do without a fire,although it was colder then Christmas in a Hoboken boarding-house.He wouldn't give them any wine, because their forefa hers never drank it.When they remonstrated, he reminded them that it was a poor rule which did not work all around, and thus, by his good natured greatness, wheedlel his people into new coats\u2014about the hardest thing that can be done with humanity.Few articles of dress were more popular at one tiie than the Spencer, the origin of which is extremely curious Mr.Spencer, an Englishman, rather particular in his dress, one time remarked in a company that no fashion was so ridiculous but would be adopted if worn by a person of sufficient importance.This was objected to, whereupon Mr.Spencer offered to bet that if he cut off the skirts of his coat and walked out with merely the body and sleeves, some one would follow him.The bet was taken, the coat prepare: and Mr.Spence: used it in London, past a well-known tailor whom he knew was always loak- ing for something new.Thus the Spencdr came into use, At the battle of Steinkirk, which took place on the morning of Aug.3, 1692, the French nobles were surprised in their sleep, and hastily rushinz out of their tents, they arranged their late gravats in the most careless manner.The Freuch were victorious, and to commemorate their victory, it became the fashion after this to wear the neck cloth in a negligee manner.Hence the origin of the Steinkirk cravat, as it was afterward called.During the reign of George III.his Royal Highness the Duke of York had a duel with Col.Lennox.and the worthy colonel succee led in shooting away one of the Duxe's curls.Hence it became the correcting t tho wear a curl on one side of tiie temple only.When Fox, the first of Quakers, was s:tting in church and the preacher said anything which he didn\u2019t like he moved solemnly, puton his hat and kept it on un.ilthe disagreeable remarks concluded.Hence aro-e the Quaker custom of wearing hats in church, A curious instance of how a fashion was nipped in the bud took place in \u2018ew York during the early part of this ceu- tury.A party of young swells\u2014possibly the advanced guards of the present army HA AE ltidra 15\u20140UC Qu, coach aud six and drove around tewn in style.This incited another clique of young men, who, not to be outdone at this sort of thing, immediately fitted out a coach and eight and appeared upon the principal streets in great splendor.So amuszing was this to the workmen of the town that a party of sixteen carmen, determining to burlesque the whole Lina up à affair, dressed themselves in clean white fiocks and appeared in the most fashionable parts of the town in 8 new couch, which was driven by no less than siateen horses tandem.Each man had his hair powdered.Thirt-en acted as postilions, and the extraordinary appearance of this singular vehicle sent a loud guifaw from one end of the town to tue otuer.So ridiculous did the carmen m.ike this absurd custom of emulation appear that no furtiier attempt was made on the part of the young swells, who, however, took the thing in such good part that one of them wrote an ode called \u201cCarmen Triumphe.\u201d One cannot help but wonder what these worthy fel.ows would have done with our Wardie\u2014Clothier and Furnisher.How Stanley Won His Wife.Speaking of Mi.Stanley's courtship Mrs.Tennant, mother of Mr .S.anley, said: **Henry wooed a long time before he won, 1 did not give my consent at once.When he came to me and plead: ed for Douly\u2019s hand I said: ** *No, Henry; Dolly is all that I have left and I cannot, shail not, part with her.The mother-in-law in Euglaud plays a lonely par.She is not welcome to lie * ean zhter\u2019s household; her visits must Tl jew and brief.Tney have taken my other

with a prmature gravity and dignity of demeanor, and a strong, penetrating and resolute mind.After remaining quiet for a month or two, \u20180 recuperate his physical powers and to think over his position, he determined to be an architect.He set to work at once, with his usual energy and persistence; and after having familiarized himsef with the rudiments of the profession of the best scientific school in the country he entered an architect's office in New York, and worked there from twelve to fifteen hours a day for seven years.Unremitting application such as this, rendered physically possi- bie as it was by an invincisle constitution, and turned to the Lest advantage by a powerful and comprehensive intellect.could not tail to have its effect.When Bellingham, at the end of his apprenticeship period, set up in business on his own account there were few men in the country who possesse.i a broader and sounder knowled se of architecture than tis young man of 23, or who had =o much taste and origina ity in matters of design.The remainder of his professional history, being mainly a vecurd of well des rved and increasing success, has littie interest.At the epoci of his entrance into this story he had hada hand in many of the best bu.ldings of our large cities, both private and public, and incidentally he had been brought in contact with a great number of people whom it mizht be deemed socially expedient to know.But Billingham scarcely seemed to have the ordinary social instinct.His manners were abrupt and reserved, and he had a very disconcerting glance for those who seemed disposed to attempt to be familiar with him.He seemed to have a temperamental antipathy against aristocratical or exclusive pretentions of any kind, though in a certain sense no one was more exclusive and aristocratic than he.The type is no uncommon one, as the critics say; and it is perhaps a pity, nowadays, that it is not a great deal commoner, Though repellent in several ways, it has some qualities of almost infinite redemption.It includes every- thins that we call masculine.Its exemplars are often deficient in humor; but they have a sternness and simplicity that are to the other parts of human nature what sea salt is to water.They are often unjust, but they are never complaisant.They may be bitter, but they are never sweet; or hard, but never soft.And yet there is another side to them\u2014 but only very few\u2014perhaps only one\u2014 ever comes to know it.Enough of generalizations.Geoffrey Bellingham had not the air of being susceptible to feminine charms.His manner, when he was brought in contact with the gentler sex, underwent no gentile and illuminating change.The elements of his nature seemed averse from harmonizing with those of women.When he happened to speak with a woman he would express himself in his usual curt, laconic way, keeping his eyes fixed upon her faco the while, with a sort of unsympathetic inquisition.The impression conveyed was that he considered women insufficient and untrust- wirthy., On the other hand he 1 ever railed against them, as self conscious misogynists do; his indifference seemed not to be the result of an exhaustive or me rtifying experience of them in the past; it was scientific or temperamental rather.He recognized their functional use to the race an:l to society, but did not care to be personally concerned with them more than was necessary.But his professional reputation was so high and so well attested that his social disqualifications did not injure his suc- cuss; and when Gen.Inizo conceived the idea ot a grand new opera house Bellingham was amonz those to whom he applied for a plan and an estimate, and it was Bellin zham who got the contract.The result was a building which many judges considered to be second to none of its kind in the world.It was beautiful, it was luxurious, it was acoustically a marvel, it was fireproof.Incidentally a num er of artists achieved renown and made money by the decorations which they executed, under Bel- lingham's supervision, for its inner and outer walls.New York boasted of it, the papers contained des riptions of it, and the illustrated journals published pictures of it.and endeavored, but un- sucessfully, to obtain a portrait of the ai hi ct.But, as a compensation, there was engraved a dignified and imposing representation of Gen.Inigo, and a record of his brilliant and typically American career.Bellingham had been waiting in the gereral\u2019s office fifteen minutes when the latter appeared, with Jocelyn on hisarm, both in the best of spirits.The architect did not rise from his chair or make any other response than a preoccupied nod to the expansive greetings of the gentleman.*'If you have your wits about you,\u201d he said to Inigo, \u2018look at this plan and tell me your idea about, it.\u201d \u201cWhat's it all about, anyhow?\u2019 returned the impresario, removing his cigar from his mouth and pulling himself together.\u201cStage entrance! Wha'\u2019s the use botherin\u2019 with that?Just make it so as they can get in anl out, and the gals can see their fellows\u201d \u2014\u2014 **No, sir,\u201d interpused Bellingham quietly.*\u2018I want to stop that.\u201d \u201cStop what, in the name o\u2019 gracious?\u201d \u201cFellows hanging round the stage door for the girls to come out.I don\u2019t like it, and I mean to give the girls a chanc: to get off frea if they c:a0 382.\u201d \u2018Your saving clause w.ll cover ninety- nine casesin a huadred, 1 fancy,\u201d remarked Jocelyn with a lauzh.\u2018What has that got to do with it?\u201d demanded Bel:ingham, l oxing'at him; \u201cand what have you to do with it, either?\u201d \u201cOh, I was only startlea to see you turning missionary,\u201d replied the other, moving away.Bellingham paid no further notice to him.\u201cBy connecting che window above the of fifteen feet span, with the corridor in the building on the opposite side of the alley,\u201d he said, referring to his drawing, \u2018\u201cyou give additional means of exit either by the street door of that building or by the upper passage leading to the elevated railway station.Well?\u201d \u201cWhat'll it cost?\u2019 inquired Inigo.\u201cNot more than eight hundred, or I'll pay the difference.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s all darn nonsense; but I'll do it to oblige you,\u201d said Inigo.\u201cThat way, if you like,\u201d said Belling- ham.folding up his plan.\u2018Good day.\u201d \u201cOdd fish, that fellow,\u201d observed Jocelyn when the architect had gone out.\u201cI just tell you what,\u201d said Inigo.\u2018\u201cif that odd fish was an impresario the divas wouldn\u2019t go back on him\u2014not much!\u201d \u201cWhy wouldn\u2019t they?\u201d \u201cOh, maybe they wouldn\u2019t dare; but they wouldn\u2019t, anyhow.\u201d \u201cWhat do you know about it?\u201d \u201cI know a man when I sea him,\u201d returned the other, wagging his head, \u2018and so do they.\u201d CHAPTER V.HOW EVERYTHING WAS MADE PLEASANT AND EASY FOR HER.\u201cWHAT ARE THE SERVICES FOR WHICH THIS IS THE PAYMENT?\u201d Two or three days afterward Jocelyn betook himself to a small and rather shabby looking house in East Eighteenth street, and asked if Mrs.Bemax were at home.The woman who opened the door said, in a weary and discontented voice, that Mrs.Bemax was in, and Jocelyn went upstairs, He entered the front room on the first floor.This room had a dingy and brownish aspect.The furniture was meager and rickety.Upon the wall between the.windows hung askew a print of the Prince of Wales and his family, taken from some iilus- trated paper and framed in a wooden frame stained black and varnished.The only pretty thing in the room was a photograph of a chubby little child about 4 years of age.It was mounted .n a tasteful standard frame of stamped leather, and a small vase containing two or three flowers stood in front of it.The photograph itself was much faded and was in the style of ten year >.In a few minutes a tall, le aged woman, with a square shape: face and rather strongly marked features, came into the room.Her eyes and brows were dark; her hair was slightly touched with gray.The corners of her large mouth had acquired an indrawn look, apparently from a habit of pressing her lips together; her general expression was studiously impassive.She looked like one accustomed to meet with rebuffs and disappointments, and to put up with thern when necessary, though never with meekness and resignation.There was an air about her that showed she had once Leen familiar with the handsome side of the world, but, from whatever cause, had discontinued to enjoy or practice its refinements.There were wore hard and unpleasant things in her memory than the contrary, and these memories and experiences had worn away her former comeliness and made her skeptical and somewhat malicious, instead of gentle and engaging.**Well, Hamilton,\u201d she said, as she came in, \u201c\u2018I hope you've brouzht me some money.\u201d \u2018Money, my dear Meg! you some last week?\u2019 \u201cYes, enough to pay up my arrears of board.I\u2019ve had none to spend on myself for a month, and I have only one other dress to my back, and that is not fit to be seen.\u201d \u2018Things are more expensive here than in England.I told you that when you insisted on coming here.You would have been more comfortable at home.\u201d \u2018Home is where the heart is,\u201d she replied, with an intonation of somber sarcasm.\u2018\u2018My heart is not in England, wherever else it may be.\u201d \u201cWell, I've been very busy,\u201d said Jocelyn.\u2018So you always tell me; but I per- sume, as usual, it is no business of mine.\u201d \u201cWell, my dear, its only the money aspect of my business chat you feel auy interest in.\u201d \u201cIf you mean there is no longer any sentiment between us I cordially admit it,\u201d was the answer.\u201cI don\u2019t care the snap of my finger for you or for any one else now alive.But I have some Didn*t I send claims upon you, and I've come here to\" enforce them.\u201d \u201cYou have the photograph there still, I see,\u201d remarked Jocelyn, turning to the table.\u2018Poor little fellow! If he'd lived I'd have made a man of him.\u201d \u201cYes! Youd have made the same sort of man of him as you've made woman of his mother.I\u2019m glad he\u2019s dead.if it's only to save him from knowing what sort of a father he's got?However, you said that to put me in a good humor.I suppose.What do you want?\u201d \u201cI vow, Meg, you're too confoundedly sour for anything,\u201d exclaimed Jocelyn, twisting his whi-kers.\u201cI've come to tell you of an arrangement that will enable you to live at your ease the rest of your days, and this is the way I am received.Come, now!\u201d \u201cItis impossible you should intend any benefit to me that would not benefi you ten times more,\u201d said Mrs.Bamax impassively.\u201cYou do me gross injustice: you are like all women with a grievance!\u201d returned Jocelyn, whose temper was certainly very easy.\u201cMy scheme is to put you in receipt of an income of $1,200 a year.Have you any fault to find with that?\u201d - \u201cWhat are the services for v hich this lower door, by means of an iron bridge y is tle payment?\u201d Mrs Bemax inquired.\u201cTo chaperon a lady\u2014nothing more.\u201d \u201cA lady!\u201d replied the other.a peculiar smile drawing down the corners of her mouth; \u201cI begin to understand! Who is she?\u201d \u201cThe prima donna at the mew opera house.\u201d \u201cYes, in whom you are tenderly in- erested.Taking everything into con - sideration, Hamilton, that is very characteristic of you; a very delicate piece of : kindness!\u201d \u201cBah! Meg, your cynicism is overdone; you are on the wrong sceat entirely.In the first place, the lady is not the person she\u2019s supposed to be.She's the daughter of an old friend of mine: 1 once intended to marry her, but\u2014I thought better of it.Circumstances which you will be filly informed of have led to her personating the Marana \u2014name and all\u2014the coming season.Its a erand serret, of course, and I selected you as the nly woman who could be trusted to keep it.You are to confirm in every way that suggests itself the idea that she is the bona fide Marana: say you've lived wish her for years in Europe, and so on.But she is wholly ignorant of the worid, and you are to see to it that none of the young fellows get ahead of her.You may invent all the adventures you like for her\u2014in the past, but on no account let her get into any scrapes in the present.Do you see what I mean?\u201d \u201cI think so.The young fellows you speak of are to be kept out of the way for your sake rather thau for hers; and she is (0 be instructed that any scrape she gets into with you is noscrapeat all, but a distinction and a blessing.\u201d *Upon my soul I should fl-«tter myself you were jealous if I didn\u2019t know you so well,\u201d said Jocelyn with alauzh; \u201cI only with to protect the girl from annoyance and to insure the success of the whole scheme.\u2019 \u201cIf you coull ma%e mse believe in your disinterestedness an! virtue the only rasult would b2 that I should serve vou less efficiently than otherwise.Bat you always liked deception for its own sake, and you are the same Hamilton Jocelyn that I knew in Riclinond twelve years ago.Well, I shall know what tone to take with her.\u201d \u201cTake any tone youlike, in the devil\u2019s name, so long as you take the position and observe the conditions!\u201d exclaimed Jocelyn, getting up, with some signs of impatience.\u201cI will take the position on condition of being guaranteed my outfit and twelve hundred dollars,\u201d said Mrs.Be- max.\u201cIt is not high wages for the devil to pay, but it's better than nothing, and to live as comfortably as I can, so long as I do live, is the best I have to look forward to now.I'm not so fasti dious in other respects as you do me the honor to imagine.\u201d \u201cWell, Meg, when you've enjoyed a few months\u2019 luxury you'll take a more genial view of things, I hope.Above all things make as gooi an impression on the lady as possible.She must learn to confide in you, and to take your advice in all social matters from the outset.You can do anything with her if she likes you and trusts you, and notn- ing if she doesn\u2019t.\u201d \u201cI understand; I am to be another mother to her!\u201d said Margaret Bemax, ina tone and with a look in her eyes so quiet and yet so repellent tat Jocelyn made no attempt to reply, but took his leave without further ceremony.Certainly Beatrix needed a mother at this epoch of her career.The peculiar conditions under which she was making her entiance into the world rendered.her especially defenseless.She was not only ignorant (as any girl brought up in the seclusion of home is likely to be) of the ways and wickedness of mankind, but the strict necessity of her incognito cut her off from the support and society of both her father and of all the other relatives and friends who should naturally be around her.She was not herself, and she was somebody wholly different from herself as well.Furtaermore she was a singer, with all the sensitiveness and the liability to emotional impressions that the musical tempcrament implies.Upon the whole a young woman can select no career more dangerous than that upon which Be trix had just entered, and the external cireum- stances which atten:led her entrance could scarcely have beon more untoward.Meanwhile the subject most constantly present to her thoughts, since it gave color to everything else, was her assumed character of the Marana.To be herself began to appear in the light of something criminal.Everything depended Ew dumm La Upon maintainiag vie ueception.Nor could she disguise from herself that the men she met treated her with a sort of freedom to which she was quite unaccustomed.This perplexed and annoyed her, and Mrs.Bemax, when she appealed to her, only smiled and said she mustn\u2019t mind them.Finally she thought it would be a good idea to ask information of Mr.Jocelyn.\u201cFellows bother you, do they said that gentleman in answer to her complaint, with a reassuring smile.\u201cWell, ma\u2019mselle, you know we mustn\u2019t be too particular about that.When we have been on the stage a little longer we shall learn to look upon all men as our brothers, and not mind a little fun.Besides, you know, you are the famousand invincible Marana, and are supposed to be able to settle all such Jack-a-dandies with one hand, so to speak!\u201d \u201cIdon\u2019t understand you,\u201d said Beatrix, with a slight flush.\u2018Well, my dear, the amount of it all is they mean no harm, and ti.ey\u2019ve heard so many stories about the Marana\u2019s adventures that they feel justified in trying to find out what she\u2019s made of.The fact is, you know, she\u2019s said to be a little hazarde\u2014dangerous\u2014as soon ruin a man as look at him, and you must act out the character.\u201d \u201cDo you mean that I should pretend to be anything that is not\u2014good?\u201d \u201cOh! no, no\u2014not that.of course.Only « sort of give and take, live and let live style\u2014that\u2019s what vou want.\u201d \u201cIf they think I am different from what I am, in any bad wav,\u201d continue l Beatrix, \u201cI will either tell them who I «mor give up the whole thiaz.\u201d Her voice trembled.\u201cNow, my good little prima donna, don\u2019t you say anything so foolish!\u201d said Jocelyn, taking her hand in his and patting it.\u2018Come.vou know me doa't you?and you know whether or not Hamilton Jocelyn would permit any oOue to insuit vou?Very wel, you're as sale, if the worst o.ues 10 the then; THE MONTREAL HERALD, SATURDAY.JAN.8: worst, as if you were sealed up in the center of the pyramid of Cieops! But what Iwant you to learnis to have courage\u2014to hold your own bravely, and not to be too squeamish about what the people you meet with say and do.The world always seems queer and little disagreeable when one is first brought in contact with it\u2014full of people not a bit like our quiet folks out in the country.But we can\u2019t change the world, can wa?All we can do is to take things as they are, and make the best of it.If we are all right nothing can really hurt us.Bus we must have courage, we musn't be afraid, we mustn\u2019t talk af giving up! We must be a little woman of the world.Every woman must be who intends to accomplish az-ything, let alone to make such a reputation as lies before you.It's a lit tle freemasonry we all have to learn, nothing more; and, as I said, though you won\u2019tlove me\u2014naughty child!\u2014yet you can\u2019t help trusting your father\u2019s old friend: and as a matter of course you will come to me if you get into any real scrape.I shall be only too ready to assist you: but { don\u2019t want to seem officious either to you or to others, and I want you to fight your own way as much as possible at first.It will make it all the easier .or you hereafter.Don\u2019t let yourself be put upon, of course, but don\u2019t altogether forget that you're the Marana either.If you manage it cleverly her name ought to be a help to you rather than the contrary.\u201d \u201cIn what way?\u2019 \u201cOh, the sharper the fight the sooner over, you know, and the more decisive,\u201d said Jocelyn, laughing.\u2018Yes, it is an advantage in every way.If you were entered in the lists in your own name, with your father and all your friends to fall back on, you would be falling back allthetime.You would be trusting to their strength instead of to your own.But since you're alone you'll discover yourown force, and make it evident to the others into the barg iin.\u201d \u201cBut will not papa live in the hotel with me?\u201d \u201cMy gracious, no!\u201d exclaimed Jocelyn, lifting his hands in half playful consternation.\u201cIn the eyes of the world, remember he\u2019s nothing but a respectable old gentleman in nosort of way related to you.To have him in attendance on you would be most\u2014what shall I say?\u2014inexpedient; and if it led to nothing else, it might lead to his true re:ationship being found out.No, you may see him occasionally, of course, but on the same footing as any other chance acquaintance, Ha, ha! You wouldn't want to compromise your own father, would you?not to speak of being compromised by him?\u201d \u201cWell, I certainly am alone!\u201d Beatrix gravely.\u201cIn appearance, yes; but so long as Hamilton Jocelyn is alive you'll have an unfailing re.ource.\u201d \u201cI should compromise you as well,\u201d said she, looking at him fixedly.He made a laughing gesture of depreciation.\u201cOh, don\u2019t be afraid of that! I'm known; everybody understands me! We can do no possible harm to each other.It's an understood thing that I stand godfather to all prime donne on their entry into New York society.You may safely refer to me as an old friend on all occasions.And, by the by, I've taken theliberty to do you a bit of service already.You need a companion, and I've been so lucky as to secure just the person.Shs's an English lady, daughter of a clergyman, I've known her for years; an excellent creature; really a lady of great refinement and experience, and precisely suited to your needs.She will take perfect care of you, and keep you posted avout everything you ought to do and all that sort of thing.I have let her into the secret, the only other persons who know it being your father, Inigo, and myself.The idea is, of course, that she\u2019s been living with you on the continent, and all that sort of thing.Mme.bemax, she'll be here tomorrow morning.You'll be certain to like her immensely.\u201d \u201cWell, what must be, must, I suppose,\u201d said Beatrix, folding her hands in her lap and looking down.*\u2018It does seem hopeless w Ls Oi going.wt now I have come so far.But if 1 iui understood beforehand.\u201d * * * sh paused, but went on afer a moment.\u201cI have been living in the midst of false hoods, and it seen:s to me that that is more likely to take away courage than to give it.\u201d \u2018Pooh, pooh! things will very soon shake down, and then in everything but name you will be more your elf than you ever were before!\u201d returned her father\u2019s old friend encouragin :ly.The next day Mme.Bemax was introduced, and was very genial, he!pful and agreeable.said CHAPTER VI.SOCIETY ENTERTAINS THE NEW DIVA.The Cadwalader Dinsmores arc puoulz such as can exist (as a social fat) nowhere but in America, and, indeed, in New York.Mr.Dinsmore (called Wallie Dinsmore Ly every one who knows him) is a man of paramount though unobtrusive usefulness.He is\u2014 or for the sake of the unitics let us say he was\u2014a gentleman of medium size, plain exterior and remarkable quietness of speec: and demeanor.He was like the heart of peace in the midst of the fashionable sucial whirlwind, the undemonstrative center of all demonstrations, the reposeful culminat:on of all activities.To say that he knew everybody and everything, not only that everybody else knew, but that everybody else would like to know, but lmperfectly expressed his accomplishments.He lived in New York.but he was at home in all countries and in all societies, and occasionally was met with in all.He was about f-rty-two years of age, but looked younger, having lizht hair and a subilued reddish: complexion.and he seemed, when you considered his experience and serenity.indefinitely or in fact infinitely older.He had unexceptionable manners, was genial, kinlly, gently humorous and inses.bly entertaining.He never was detected miking an effort, and he never forbore an effort to Le 6bliring.He was as accurate as a pendulum, and as versatile as a continent.He could neither play, sing, act, make a speech, write a book, nor paint a picture; vat no one knew bettir than he how all these thin æ ourht to Le dune, \u2018ir was more s \u2018mpathe- Ccaliv appreciative of others\u2019 aitempts todo them.He smiled caùy, sub ade 1891\u2014EX TRA SHEET.GAVE HER HAND FIRST TO MRS.CADWA- LADER.ways as if he could not help it.His laugh was a low contagious chuckle, and seemed to suggest an unexpected charm and drollery in life.There was a manly, masculine look and quality about his plain face and ordinary figure, and in the tone and atterance of his voice.You felt that there was sutstance in him when re- quired\u2014that he was by no means a phantom of conventions aad escapes\u2014 that, when everything else had been eliminated for him, a gentiemau would remain.He was a great fiv rite wich women and with children, :1.d iisrelations with the former were just us cor.liil and sitn- ple as with the latter.If you droped in to see him du ing a morning you were sure to find a namber of men whom it was particularly worth while to meet, sitting about i1 the easy ciuirs and smoking Wallie\u2019s famous cigars and cigarettes.He nad a fine old fash on- ed house down in West Twenty-third street and plenty of money, which he knew how tospend; that is.he wus both generous and econom cal, But the most remarkable thing about Wallie Dinsmore was that, instead of being in fact the bachelor uncle of \u2018society that he was in spirit, he was actually and conspicuously married.Mrs.Cadwalader Dinsmore (they never called her Mrs.Wallie) was a few years older than her husband and weighed about fifty pounds more than he.She was mighty and imposing, convincing and memorable.Uo: her massive countenance, which had the texture and hue of the finest pink-and-white ¢namel, was fixed ymmutably a gracious smile, which served to condense, as it were, into manageable dimensions the else too ponderous acreage of her cheeks and to refine the contour of her scarlet lips.Her hair, of a dense yellow hue, without a thread of gray, was arranged in an inscrutable manner, upon what might be termed the cylindrical principle; it resembled a carving in varnished maple; itlooked brittle.As for her figure, Mrs.Cadwalader might have stood for the capstan of a three decker, mound which the jovial seamen trip as they heave the mighty anchor.Her voice, meanwhije, was small, soft and caressing, and shere- garded her interlocutor with a glance of indulgent coquetry, as if to mitigate the terror of her proportions, though it really rendered them only more alarming.Nor was her usual talk, as wight have been expected, about devouring quarter beeves, or causing earthqi a es, or obliterating populations, but avout embroidered handkerchiefs, and summer zephyrs bowing on wid roses and the holiness of infants\u2019 slu:nber.Was she, then, a saraoric humorist, or a fool buried alive ir flesh?No; she was & tau & hearted, practical.shrewd woman: with sharp eyes, a politic disposition and unrelenting determination.Tle fact that she was not of aristocratic or indeed discoverable lineage may have sharpened her claws, so to speak, and steeled her heart; she had had to fight her owr way, and was a little too much alive to the value of the worldly objects she had striven for.The most tellins success she had ever scored was, of course, her marriave with Wal- lie Dinsmore.How sie contrived it is not known; but it must have been, in every sense.easier to embrace her fifteen years ago than now.Wallie was the most human of mankind, generously appreciative of everything except his own value.At any rate the thing took place, and Mrs.Cadwa'ader proved to be an admirable and substantial wife, She made war upon none of his hobbies; she Lroke up none of his habits; she sacrificed none of his bachelor friends; she kept out of his way except when she could be of use to him, and then she was always ready.She made him pay, as the vernacular hath it, but she let it cost him nothing.I.short, though she and her husband had almost no tastes or traditions in common, thev were comp.etely in harmony, had no children, and were a model of New York domestic virtue, happiness and prosperity.Itisno small thing for a husband to be able to affirm that his wife has not had his study dusied for a week, nor launched even an oblique criticism at his African lemur.Such as they were the Cadwalader Dinsmores made up their minds to extend the right hand of hospitality to Mlle.Marana.Mrs.Cadwaladw called on her in person, and Wallie, as a matter of course, in the shape of his name written on a piece of pasteboard.The diva\u2019s acceptance having been secured the other invitations were issued, and the day arrived.\u201cYou will have to put in an appearance,\u201d said Wallie to Geoffrey Belling- ham during the previous week.\u201cYou built the opera house, and decency demands it.\u201d \u201cThe more reason why not,\u201d the architect replied.\u201cI should have to be introduced, and I don\u2019t care for it.\u201d \u201cYou will have to come,\u201d the other repeated calmly.\u201cDo you want the woman to be disrespectable?\u201d \u201cIt's none of my business.\u201d It ie, À woman is what her associates are.If respectable people don\u2019t receive her they are to blame if she cuts up, \u201cIt she were a novice\u2014but she\u2019s no- tortious!\u201d (To be car it ued.) « Cable » Nesriv ha'f : re try in \u2018Le ma Le, Tha\u2018surd «foiss< w' b va toe Fn *tr-never A run fonn! t is \u2018Ca gr Min.lo.s s:d acu y.A hs rn mint A ct.ie.REMESY \"PAIN WHAT IT WILL DO.* Relief.\u2014Inanyclimate, at any season, one Gr two applications of St, Jacobs Oil relieve pains and aches;
