PERSONS AND THINGS.
The superintendent of the Phila
delphia society for the prevention
of cruelty to chi'dren says that
since high license went inio effect,
the work of the society ha3 fallen
off 28 per cent, and the number of
commitments 55 percent.
Mrs. "Stonewall" Jackson is
engaged upon a biography of her
husband, which will contain many
facts not printed in previous
memoirs. She is not tha only
'blue stocking" of her family.
Her sister, Mrs. Irwin, of Charlotte,
VkeH-at known than she as
a writer.
Mark Twain lives an idle, easy
going sort of existence during nine
mnnHia nf Hi a vear. Unlike most
authors, he writes all summer
and rests all the remainder of the
year. His home is a handsome
iWI VinVk Oneen Ann villa, the
principal attraction of which is
large library on the first floor.
Assistant Private Secretary
Pruden has been at the white
house for twenty -five years. He
asserts, and he is high authority,
that TJnthfiford B. Haves was the
mnst. lihfiral entertainer who ever
occupied the executive mansion
This is contrary to popular belief.
Mr. Prnden's word is not to be
doubted, however.
Tlifl wife of the late S. S. Cox
was
his inseparable companion;
she shared all his plans, and made
his life her own. Mr. and Mrs
Cox were not only devoted, but
she was like a partner to him in
his business, sharing his confidence
in everything. Mr. Cox has left
the MS. of an unfinished book
which he intended to be his life
work. He wrote the most of it at
liis desk in congress, where the
o
scene is laid.
Jay Gould's grayness has in
creased very much of late. He
was the picture of healthy and
vigorous manhood two years ago,
but now his gray hair is almost
white. The manner of self re
straiut which always distinguished
him has deepened considerably,
and he is now exceedingly re
ticent and auiet. This is from a
casual observation of the man as
he appears in public, and it may
" be all on the surface, but it is cer
tain that the change in Mr. Gould
is great. s
The admirers of Prince Bis
marck in Germany are develop
ing plans to lound a UismarcK
museum in Berlin on the next
birthday anniversary of the chan
cellor. Collections have been
made already and requests sent
out for all relics pertaining to the
prince or his family. It will, in
all probability, be arranged some
what after the style of the well
known Hohenzollern museum,
which is in one of tha palaces of
Frederick the Great The chan
cellor is flattered by the idea.
The restaurateur who furnished
the luncheon to the South Ameri
can delegates at the white house
recently has had experience with
six presidents. He says: "Air.

besides sherry and Chateau Mar.
gaug, and three cases' of cham
pagne were drunk. There was no
limit olaced upon anything. But
that's the way they nearly all are.
The first year they start in very
liberal; next year they are not so
much so; the third year they are
still less, and the last year not at
all."
It will, perhaps, strike most
people as somewhat odd that there
is a steady importation -to this
country of Irish jaunting cars.
According to the carriage makers,
a certain number of enthusiastic
Irishmen have a yearning after
their native form of conveyance at
certain periods of their lives, and
straightway send over to Ireland
for a car. Once here, however,
Children Cry for;
the r.ars' are usually laid aside
after the novelty has worn off.

THE FLY STUCK.

"A funny

was Duttinsr the finishing touches

"A fellow came in to be shaved

SHARP SHOOTING.
Some very sharp shooting came
off a little while ago on the Afn
can coast, where the correspond
ent of a well-known electrical pa
per happens to be stationed. Two
Arnh pliififs had fiome down from
Yemen to Aden, and a trial ensued,
in which. the Arabs, who were
cracit snots wiin uimr iuug suuo,
came off quite the best Our
American resolved on a surprise
to these eentlemen, and invited
them to a grand test on the on the
morrow. Meanwhile he prepared
a fulminating fuse, laid a couple of
insulated wires to a p.oint on the
sandhills a quarter of a mile away,
carefully placed the fuse, covered
it with sand, and on this placed a
small glass bottle. Next day the
Arabs were invited to fire at the
minute speck in the distance
They fired half a dozen times,
naturally far wide of such a mark.
Our marksman then took his place,
his attendant ( with his hand on
the kev) being not far off. The
bottle burst into thousands of frag
ments at the first shot', and the
Arabs left with the most awestruck
idea of the skill of the American.

A gilded youth gave a supper
party in his rooms, and they look
on the wine when it was red till

DREW THE LINE.
A good story is being told about
town of an old gentleman who
had lived ior vears at one of the
Stamford hotels with his family.

daughter, who was married, died.
After a suitable time the bereaved
widower asked for the hand of the
