Speculating on Their Atlilelio Hirength In tho.Flcld and on the Water. LTVvn U Bono Otot: narvardmenare Juat now speculating on the probable strength of the football team that will represent Talo next year. The CambrMgo youth still feel sore, and with good reason, as oven Yalo men admit, over the result of the recent oontest In New York, and they aro of course determined to leave no atone unturned to defeat Tale noxt year. Tho Yale eleven noxt year will be substantially the same as this. Corbln, the giant centro-rush, has been elected oaptaln, muoh to tho surprise of those who believed that dill or Woodruff was sure of that posltlin. corbln will make a good man. ne Is an excellent disciplinarian and Is well liked by hla aasoclftlea. Yale has had a few better centre rushors than Corbln, and the men are ex ceedingly scarce who can give him anv points on the game. The ruan line that aaved Yale from otrtaln dofeat this fall will be broken In two places, Cross, '83. and Pratt, '88, both graduate next spring, and will not probably return to College. It la unoertalu as to who will Oil their places, but It la safo to say that Brooks, '69, and Ithodcs, '1, will hare heavy mortgages on them. Brooks played In several games this year, and showed up well, lthodes plays with tho true Yale snap, but Is rather light. Beeohor, who for four years has filled the posi tion of quartcr-baok In a manner never before equalled, graduates In the spring. His return la uncertain. Tho most avallablo men for the place are Wlrtemburg and Wallace. The former mailo such a good showing as half-back this year In the Harvard gamotbat he will probably be kept In that place, while Wallace can hardly bo Bpared at the end of the rush line. Some new man will, there lore, prohablr have to bo looked up. Graves, tho frcsnmnn bnlf-back, who has developed Into suoh a phenomenal runner and kicker, will play next ycar,provldcil his father's consent can be obtained. Bull, tho full-back, will graduato In Juno, and there seems to be no prospect of his return. He will be greatly missed, as bo was a beautiful ktokor and an exceptionally flno tackier. It Is entirely a matter of speculation aa to who will be bis suc cessor. Mollrlde and Williams of this year's fresh man team seem to be the strongest candidates. Both men are good kickers and fair runners. Yale will play substantially tho Bamo gamo next year as this. The half-baokB will be trained to kick aa well aa run, so that tho general team play may be varied to corresiond with the exigencies of the occasion. Most ot the coaohlng will be done by graduates, as in past years, and the preparation will be even moro careful than formerly, as tho Now Haven men havo now a wholesome fear of Harvard. Tho Cambridge boya ought to win the championship noxt season, and they will win It, provided they adopt tho tactics which Yale by long expcrlenco has found to be tho most effective. Now that tho football season Is ovor the nttontloa of tbe t'olloge Is turned towards the crew. About a dozen men have been In practice for a month or more, and within a week tncro will bo twenty-five or thirty candidates for the eight seata In tho boat. Of tho men In last year's crew there are now In College Woodruff, (Jill, Carter, Stevenson, Oalil wol! and Wilcox. There are therefore but two vacancies to All, although 0111 has told Capt. Stev enson repeatedly that ho will not row again noxt year. 0111 Is one of the strongest men in the boat, and every effort will bo made to induce him to re main. Hextyear'a captaincy will lay between him and Woodruff, and that la too high an honor to be lightly thrown aside. It la too early yet to pick out men for the two vacant places. Home members of the Sophomore crow will stand an excellent chance. Thompson, the little coxswain of last year, win again hold the tiller ropes, although there Is a man In the Fresh man class who la aald to be twenty pounds lighter. Caldwell, who haa stroked the eight for two years, will sit In his old plice In tbe boat. It Is his ambi tion tostroko the winning crew to victory for three successive years, a feat which. It attained, will stand unparalleled in the annals of modern coUcgo boating. Active training win bo commenced .immediately. The men will row In tho harbor as long as the weather win permit and will then practice In the tank In the gymnasium. Tho moat promising of the candidates will go to the training table Immedi ately after Cbrlstmss, and from that tlmo until June It will be a long, bard stretch of work, un broken In its monotony. Capt. Stevenson aeoms confident of winning the race with Ilarvad. He ssld to Beecher at tho lflfth Avenuo Hotel Just be fore the football garnet It you take Harvard Into camp to-day, Harry, we'll do 'em up on tho Thames next July." Harvard will find It a hard task In deed to get togoiher eight mon who can defeat the brawny athletea whose sand and strength haa been tried in more than one hard-fought race. Should Harvard abandon the annual raoi with Columbia It Is probablo that Yale will give up her yoarly plcnlo with the men from tho University of Pennsylvania. I Tlio two universities will then Btsnd on a plane of equality in this respect, and neither will havo an opportunity of gauging ibo other's skill. KILLED TO END HIS MISERY. A Thoroughbred Hone In Chicago the Tic tlm of Hydrophobia. srxcui. to Tire would. 1 CniOAOO, Doc 10. A flno black thorough bred horso that had sufforod torriblo agonies for three days from hydrophobia was killed at the Chicago Vetorinary Oolloge yesterday to put it out of its misery. It belonged to Frank 0. Groono, Treasurer of tho Charles Trunx Manufacturing Company, who lives at Ho. 1239 Michigan nvonuo. Ho is a mon of wealth and very fond of dogs and horses. Among his pe'ts was a big black Newfound land named Bruno. On Nov. 2 Bruno wont suddonlymnd. HoBhowed tho flfst indica tion of his distempor when ho jumped upon tho back of tho coachman, Henry Small, and triod to bito him. Thero was a dosporato struggle botwoen tho man and tho dog, but tho coaohman finally escaped unhurt into the housa, though most of his clothes were torn off him in tho contort. Bruno was stmt and nothing moro was thought about tho matter. Tuesday Small noticod that "Cart," hi employer's fovorito horso, showed curious symptoms of somo disorder. Ho kept rubs bins his noso up and down on his stall uutil be liad worn all tho skin off. His eyes seemed very bright nnd feverish. Tho next day ho was muoh worso, and a veterinary surgeon dcolared that the animal had robles. The horso was taken to Collego Hospital, whero, after suffering greatr agony, ho was killed. Forewarned of III. Death. IJVan lft Jliekncnd Slat: At the second Bflptlst Cburoh yesterday after noon, during the funeral services over the re mains of Henry Braxton, tbe colored man who was killed by a falling pulley while at work at the Tredegar, Iter. John Jasper, who preached the f aneral sermon, recalled a vivid dream which the dead man had several daya before tbe accident. Braxton was a preacher, and bad charge of a ohnrch near Ashland, where he preached very regularly on Sundays. Several dats before hfs death be dreamed that ho was killed, and that death came to blm suddenly. When he awoko In the morning he relatod his dream, and all day long It haunted him. At work or at home, In the put Dlt or on the street, the dream would come before him with remsritablo vlvldnoss, and he could not forget the awful vision which appeared la his BlToP'several persons ho related It and at flrat ho seemed to regard It as a bad omen for his alster, who la living in New York. On Saturday and Sun Say. however, he aald "that death In tho dream was intended for me and not for my sister, "in this atate of mind he went to work, and how Dialnly hts vision or prediction waa fuintlod was made known by the famous colored divine who preached the funeral sermon.

Tho llcpubllcan Btatosmon who woro con. gregatod at tho Fifth Avonuo Hotol lostovon ing discussed tho mooting whioh took plaoo yesterday morning botween ox-8onator Thomas O. Piatt and Gon. Jamoir W. Hustod. Tho ox-Sonator and tho redoubtable WcbU chostcr legislator havo not boon on speaking tonus since tho memorablo Btep-lodder incl dont at tho Dolavan Houso, Albany, in tho Senatorial tight of 1881. Neither had spoken to tho- othor from that tlmo up to yostorday, although they fre quently met in conferences nnd campaigns. Gon. Hustod callod upon ox-Senator Flatt yostorday just as the clock in Trinity Church was striking tho hour of 11 a. m. Tho ox Sonator'B offlco is on Broadway, ncarlyvoppo sito to tho church, and tho Gcnornl know about what hour hts old onomy would bo ot Mb dosk. It is said that tho ox-Sonator was takon completely bv surprise when ho saw tho Bald Eaglo of Westchester hnt in hand, approach ing him. Oon.Hu6tod profforod his right hand and tho ex-Senator extended his doxtor paw. If an orohostra had been present it wonld no doubt havo played slow music. Tho office boy nnd two olerks wore ordered out of tho prituto offlco and tho ex-Sonator and tho oft-timo Speaker of thoABSoinbly hold a seorct confab for moro thnn hour. It is understood that whon thoy jpartod thoy separated as fi ionds and that "Jimmy" had succcodod In ti plaining n thousand and ono things to tho boss of the machine in tho Stato. At 8 p. M. tho llepublicon politicians who generally nssomblo ovory nftoruoou at tho Astor Houso had heard that Flatt and Hustod had mot and settled thoir porsonal and political hatred of each other, nnd wuro wonuoring what tho effect of tho mooting would bo. Last night the discussion of tho mnko up was transferred to tho uptown hotols. A woll-known Republican politician said "I arn told on tho bust of authority that Hustod callod upon Flatt at tho earnest solicitation of Flustoil's frionds. "Flatt rooolved him rather coldly, and Hustod at onco began to explain matters to Flatt. Hustod claimed that enomies had conspired to koep thorn apart thoso many years and vowed that his nets and motives had been misconstrued. "The ex-Senator listened patiently to tho Bald Englo's story and then rocounted what he know of Hustcd's animosity to him and his faction of the party in the State. I do not think that Jimmy mado much by extending tho hand of friendship to tho ox-Senator. It only shows that. Jimmy is frighted ovefhia urospeots in tho rnoo for the Speakership of the next Houso." Ho would nevor havo called upon Flatt if he thought ho had a ghost of a show of boing ro-eloctod. Flatt is pledged to Fremont Colo, of Schuyler, nnd you 'will find out whon tho timo comes that Hustod will make tho spoeoh in tho caucus in nominating Colo." Politicians aro very suspicious, and as soon ob tho friends of Colo heard of Husted's call upon Piatt they tolegraphed to -Colo. Ho will arrive hero this ovening, direct from "Wat kins, to find out exactly what was tho result of the visit ot Hustod to Watt. At a recent oonforenco of tho Republican Mombors-eloct of tho Assembly from the westorn tier of counties, hold in Buffalo, twelve votes were pledged to Cole. Tho con ference took place in the editorial rooms of tho Buffalo Commercial. Tho Republican Assemblymen from Now York, Kings, Suffolk and Richmond counties aro said to bo solid in their opposition to Hnsted. Ex-Senator Warner Miller is said to havo taken no interost in tho speakership contest. Whon aBkod why ho was not supporting Hustcd, he is quoted as replying i Hustod voted for mo, but I did not know how ho stood until the last moment. When ho did como ovor to my sido ho did not bring any body with him."

(FVom t CM OaU JSnUrprU Jimmy Feok had an experience Thanksgiving Day at the river that he will remember for aomo time to come. Junes had read somewhere of a novel way of catohtng chickens, by means of a kernel ot corn and a fish hook. So, not caring to waste powder and shot on a seemingly oonntlesa flock of geeae, he concelrod tho Idea ot going to the river and tben trying a similar plan. Tbe geese In tbe river bottoms number millions, and they aro slaughtered by tbe thousands, merely fur their feathers and the sport that Is got out of the hunting. Mr. Peck secured a lot ot corn and twine, but instead of using the books he punctured a hole In each kernel and tied tho twine to It. After bo had laid out about tire nundred of these prepared kernels, be attached tho twluo, ends to a heavy piece of rope, and searched for a small stamp or something to tie tho ropo to, but where he bad sot his novel Iran there was nothing but a dreary waste of sand. So he accordingly tied the rope about hla body and concealed himself In a pile ot driftwood. After a half hour's wait a nock ot the wtld croakers, numbering several thousand, flew down near the spot and began devouring the corn. Jimmy got his knife and club ready and rose up with loud cries. The geese rose, too. and Jimmy continued rising, his weight aeemlngly amounting to little with tbe feathered bipeds, up I upt upl he went; visions of home, a terrlblo death and where and how this wonld end pasted through hla mind aa he waa carried hither and thither by the frightened and screaming birds. But fortunately for James the geese, being to demoralized and flying in opposite directions, the strings bogan to break, and he was slowly de scending to tho ground. On looking down ho saw tbe geeae were dying directly over the Sacramento Itlyer, but a death by drowning seemed to strike him better than the other, and when over a sand bar be cut tbe rope and dropped down. After thret hours spent bere he waa taken off by some hunters. Jimmy aaya ho Intends to apply to Bald, win, tno balloon man, for a position, and thinks bo can give blm a few pointers on dropping from great httghts. noDNonniya.

To mo yon represent all that Is good and boautl ful In religion; all that Is desirable In heaven. Your church can spare you far better than I can, and 1 cannot believe that Clod would be so selfish aa to hold you to the strict letter of your vowa when some one's earthly and eternal happiness do ponded upon their partial violation.

I have gone In btcauae I am a great admirer of the good, the truo and the beautiful, even In a dlmo rauicpm. In each m tnnco I have found a man who took the money, aupportcd ty a very unhealthy colored man who has unwholeaomo whlto spola pn him like a calico horse In a circus. I apeak of thli, Mr. Editor, more In sorrow than In anifcr, but I hate to be foolid out of money that I cam In these hard times, when living la hlKh, cipcclally In a flat, and ready money don't have the circulation that It claims.

Of course I like the Eden Miibco very much, and I dearly lovo to go down Into tho chamber of horrors ;and stand perfectly still and be mistaken for one myself occa sionally, but I think that for thoso who really enjoy harrowing lights a beauty contest at a dime museum seems to bo moro searching than any thing clue I know of, Hence I ask, as a patron of tho dlmo musenra, that these popular places shall not be permitted to run down aud become a dis grace to our booming young town.

JoarKaf, The next term of Houston County Conrt will probably witness ono tbe most Interesting cases ever litigated. It will be managed by two of our youngest lawyers one on each aide and will be something like the following: A nrgro womsrullvlng near town had a pair of geese which she desired a cousin In Fort Valley to have, aud gave them to a negro man to be carried up there. Instead Of thus delivering tho geese, however, he took them to New Hope and gavo thorn to another negro woman. Woman Na 1 seon discovered the state of affaire, and pat In a claim for the fowls, which waa denied by No. S. No. 1 thee sought the advice of a'luwyer, and after much parleying, It was agreed that aa It was a matter of principle, and not the geese, that the lawyer was to have a small fee and tho geese. If he recovered them. No. 2 htard ot this proceeding, and the aid of a lawyer waa sought on her side, the agreement being very similar to tbe flrst one, a small fee and the geese, if be could retain possessions At last accounts the geeae were In the bands of Bailiff Tame. The case will doubtless bo watched with .interest. FAITHFUL TO THE WYHO. A WOMAN'S DEVOTION TO WICKED DAN DRfSCOLL, THE MURDERER. HI Wlfo n Dally Caller at the Tomb and tinwrnrjina In Her Kflnrla to Ufhten III Duom Not Dlscournsed by tbe Nlmrlovr oftlir fSnllow Working- to Hap port Her Children A Visit to Her Home. In n neat llttlo tenement at 8 Forsyth street tho wife of murderer Dnn Driscoll counts tho days which aro fast bringing to her husband his lost hour on earth and to her widowhood. Hiuco her husband's Incarceration, many months ago, she seems to havo abandoned nil tho pleasures of life. From tho robust, ruddy cheeked wlfo, always brimful of mirth, sho has grown polo, haggard aud silent. Thero is nothing powerful enough apparently, to draw her mind from the condemned man in whoso tars is already sounding in fancy tho mechanics' work upon tho scaffold whero his llfo will ond. As often as tho Warden will penult, sho is at her husband's side, comforting him and trying to mako tho long, dreary hours pass as cheerfully ns possible Noon every day finds her at tho iron bars, bringing what dainties her slender purse can purchase, nnd suggesting hope, oven whilo tho shadow of the hangman's uooso floats before tho mur derous Whyo. Woman no or despairs, and this woman, who, if rumor may bo credited, was often tho object of tho fellow's wrath, drunk or sober, clings to tho few happy mo ments with an energy which increases with tho certainty that they will soon tcrminato forovor. Sinco hor husband has been taken from hor sho has supported herself. Sho is bright, activo and a good workwoman nt making fancy cards. While for years sho has earned n substantial livelihood at tills occupation, and always with tho samo concern at 130 Park row, tho fact of her misfortune has neither lessoned her chances of employment or di minished tho number of hor few friends. When tho decision came a week or so ngo that there was no hope of saving DriscolT's life, she gavo up work, obtained sufficient money to support herself for tho few weoks her husband will bo of this life, and has evi dently sacrificed much that n fow comforts not in tho lino of prison faro might bo his. Yesterday early in tho afternoon she was found seated beside tho cradle of her infant child, singing aplaintivo lullaby. Sho had just returned from tho Tombs. Everything about the llttlo room, from tho bright hearth where tho embers crackled and spluttered to the cheap laco draperies on tho wall, was neatness. The floor was white and clean as scrubbing could mako it. Tho crockery cup. board, with its freighted sholves, was equally bright with polished waro, and oven tho old fashioned clock, among the few ornaments on the mantel, ticked away with vigor, seem ingly imparted by these ovidonces of thrift and oncrgy. Tho Driscolls have two children. The elder, Katio, a girl only four years of ago, 1b now living with her grandmother in Madi son street. In tho remaining child the mother's llfo seems bound, aud every mo ment not spent at tho Tombs, or in devising somo pleasuro for her husband, 1b givon to tho delicate infant. Naturally sho feels grieved at tho attacks upon Driscoll. Sho maintains that, drunk or sobor, ho was always kind to her and the children. Every caprico of hers, that thoir slender earnings warranted was gratified, and sho says that in nil things, as far as his domestic life wont, Dan was a good husband and father. Of tho murder for which he IS about to.be hanged sho will not speak. Neither is she communicative concerning tho recent attempt nt excapo moro than to say that she know nothing of it. .But sho smiles wistfully as bhe says so, and ono is perhaps justified in doubting hor. With till tho evidenoo against hor husband, his bad record, his attempt to break jail, tho decision of tho Court of Appeals and the nearness of death, tho wife is not disheart ened, but clings to the belief that tho Whyo chief will avoid tho gallowB. Her opinion of Warden Walsh and prison treatment is emphatic, but she says that rather than bo deprived of tho privileges Bhe now enjoys she is willing to bear every discomfiture. i m m LONELY MURDERERS. Tho Two Dnn Affected by Solitary Confine ment In the Tomb. Don Driscoll's friends have raised tho money nocossary to mako n last strong effort in his behalf and on Tuesday Mr. Howo will movo in the Supremo Court for a new trial. It is claimed that evidonco just obtained will provo conclusively that Driscoll had no pistol on tho morning Beozy Garrity was shot in McCarthy's houso, and will also result in tho indictment of several of tho prosecu tion's witnesses for porjury. This rosy viow of the situation is of courso that taken by Driscoll aud his counsel, who feel vory confldont of success. District-Attorney Martine has intimated to Sullivan llhiko, counsel for Dan Lyons, that ho would liko to havo the argument bo. foro tho Court of Appeals mado during his term of office, Noithor Lyons nor his counsel, however, seem anxious to rush matters, and thus bring tho day of doom nearer. Driscoll aud Lyons are now as mock as lambs. They aro solonoly in their, cells that they aro glad to talk with tho Sisters of Mercy whom thoy repulsed a weok ago. m i The Impolite l'anenger. fVu,t (A CMrago Journal.

The taxes are twice as high as In America, und three-fourths of them go to the royal family, the church and the army and navy. l'cierhof, whero tho Czar lives and from whence he fears to emerge, is a beautiful city ot probably sixty thousand people, and the seat of art. The private grounds of tho Czar comprize thousand! of acres, are the flnest In tho world, and his pcr.onsl expenses aggregate over lu.ooo.ooo roubles, or more than tJ.oou.oOO a yeur.

On arriv ing at the place, a negro man, Abo by name, who hadn't a thing lu tbo world to do with tho case, but In behalf of nls sisters, wanted tbe court to know that ho was honest, hurriedly ap;roached tho colonel and, while taking out his horse, said ho had ouo request to make of him. Mr. Copeland, being employed on the other aide, told him It was uselcia us ho was to appear against hU Bisters. But tho negro persisted und was told to go ahead, when bo said: I wants ycr pa to bo subpoenaed In dlsher case in behalf of my sisters."

Tho Irish, however, when they goto J tho theatre, as Mr. Fitou has found, go to bo nmuBcd, and it is not because an, actor Is of their nationality and the scenes of his play aro laid in Erin that thoy will applaud him. ncro is an example of n hard-working young; actress: Miss Lillio Vano plays next week in Washington with Clara Jlorris and each oven- ing after tho pcrformanco she is to start for Now York in ordor to rehearse in the morning In tho Fashion with Mr. Abboy's com. pany, leaving this city for Washington again in tho afternoon by the 2 o'clock limited. Actresses havo frequently mado the trip from Philadelphia to Now York for tho samo pur poso, but Miss Vane's proposed feat will be abovo tho record. Tho actress has dono somo vory good work with Clara Morris this sea son, playing tho ingenue rfilo in Clinton Stuart's adaptation of La Martyro the samo part which Miss Annio Husscll played in tho Madison Stjuaro version. Tho role assigned to MiBS Vano in "In tho Fashion" is n good ono nnd the young lady has been A anxious to bo known In tho metropolis. Pj Ebon Plympton has also been engaged for "In tho Fashion." As Henry E. Abbey has tho largest and most expensive stock company in the country it is thought rather singular that bo should mako theso additions to his organi zation. Gillctto returned yesterday from New Haven, where ho has been playing In "Tho Great Fink Pearl." Ho brought with him a now climax for the third act of "She," which he thinks will be considerably strengthened by this means. Gillette makes most of tho changes in his plays after they ihavo been produced, as was seen in tho case of "Held by tho Enemy." "She" has been, changed very greatly sinco its first performance Gil lette went back to Now Haven in time for his evening work. Thero was no truth in tho report that J. H. McVicker intended building a theatre in this city for RobBon and Crane. Mr. MoVicker is entirely satisfied with his Chicago theatro and tho work ho has accomplished there in the past thirty years. Like John Hamlin, of Chicago, nnd W. H. Bnpley, of Washington, Mr. MoViclror has placed his theatre in tho hands of his son. Haploy, Hamlin and Mo Vicker don't care to dabble in metropolitan theatricals. They aro porfectly content to come to New York each winter and look about them. They aro generally to be found In full force each morning at the cosy little theatrical offico in Daly's Theatre building, where thoy exchange ideas. Mrs. James Brown Potter and Ed Sothern aro rival attractions in Baltimore According to report Mr. Sothern has the best of it. Mrs. Potter, howovor, opened to a very large' audienco of Baltimore's "best." It was before a number of Baltimore society peoplo that Mrs. Potter recited her 'Ostler Joe, and sprang into fame. Tho report that Prof. Herrmann was about to securo an uptown theatre led to the infer ence yesterday that it was Dockstader's that he was after, and every ono knows what an "inferoneo" Is among theatrical people. Horrmanu yosterdny denied that ho had any intention of trying to get Doekstader's, and declared that ho wouldn't havo a theatro that (j was upstairs.

Tho cable brings tho news this morning that tho locked-out cigar-makors at Havana havo signified thoir wlllingnoss to submit their grievances to arbitration by tho Gov ernment, and that a spoedy ond of tho diffi culty is looked for. Tho lock-out affects between soven and eight thousand mom and haB resulted in a total suspension of tuo cigar-making indus try in Havana. Thus far, according to Now York manu facturers of Havana cigars, tho troublo has not affectod tho trade in this country, nor is it likely to. The senior member of Lozano, Fondas Co. said to-day to a Would reporter. Tho striko first occurred in ltamon Allone's manufactory at Havana, tho em ployees demanding tnatiho firm sign a con tract or agreemont granting them steady em ployment for a year. "At tho samo timb tho hands employed by Pedro Murias and Cortina Gomez Btruck for highor wages an advance of 91 or $2 a thousand. Both domands woro refused, and tho men in the three factories the largest in Havana went out. Tho manufacturers at Havana aro well organized, and in ordor to sustain tho firms mentioned they looked out all hands, Thoro is stock enough on hand to supply all de mands for six months, and should the fac tories remain closed that length of time tho manufacturers can get along without serious loss of money or trade. The mon are also woll organized. Thoy have been receiving from $12 to $40 per 1,000 for making cigars, according to size and quality. Tho packers also have a griovanco and are out. Thoy demanded that but one ap prentico bo permitted in each establishment overy throe years. "All hands aro Cubans and Spaniards, with a sprinkling of Chinese. The difficulty does not affect us hero, nor does it affect the Europoan contracts for cigars entered into every year by tho Havana manufacturers." Capturing Them Unawares. ItYomPuck.

The threo or four months spent in .this out-of-tho-world rotreat in Australia had mado him look older and graver, and somehow tlioro seemed to bo a stoop in tho straight shoulders, as though thoy carried a heavy burden. Tliero are somo circumstances which oblige a man to keop away from his own country sometimes," he said presently. His companion, a laconio American gold digger, looked out of his eye-corners. f' All," he said. "I don't like tho life here," said Edward; but a prisonor doesn't liko tho three months, or three years, which ho sponds in Ponton. vino or .aiuiuuiui. Edward listened to this tirade with feelings of unqualified amusement. Ho rose and laid his hand on tho American's shoulder. Briggs, I'll tell you something now." Whatever you please, sir." You've got something on your mind." Mr. Briggs looked astonished. And it's about a woman." Mr. Briggs sank into the nearest choir and collapsed. Tho littlo shaft, driven by a more skilful hand than his own, had gone straight home, and it rankled. "You're right, baronet." ho said at length you're right. Yes, It's all on account of Eliza.' At least, Eliza wasn't her name, but it'll do as well as any other. Any name would bo good enough for the party I'm thinking of." Edward pondered a moment. It was a relief to find that he was not alone in having to suffor. Mr. Brigg's case seemed ono of interest. Toll me about it, Briggs," he said. Tho American shook his head. "It wouldn't interest you," he said, gloomily. "But I say. baronet, suppose each tells the other Maybs we can help one another out a bit. Who knows Sir Edward took up his gun and moved towards tho door. Walk with mo to my hut. Briggs," ho said. We can talk as we go." So on tho way they communed together. Sir Edward told his companion all the his tory of his troubles, aud Mr. Briggs groaned long aud loudly at their complicated state. It's a nasty job, baronet." ho said" a nasty job.

In tho man's immediate vicinity circulated n pair of dogs.

Sometimes this littlo dog is imitated by art, and stands on a platform whioh runs on wheols. Tho art dog looks so muoh liko nature, and tho natural dog looks so much liko nrt that tho platform with tho whoels is almost tho only means of surely discriminating them. This littlo dog had no platform. Tho other dog exhibited was a Willoughby pug. His tail was curlod so tightly over his back that it must havo been a strain on tho roots, and'a stimulus to thought. Tho dude, the Willoughby pug and the woolly whito dog prosentod a study in gait worthy of a philosopher's consideration. There was a family resemblance iu tho thrco. It lay in their joyous briskness.. It didn't amount to much and it was joggy. but it was soothing and had its uses as a mild antidote to misanthropy. At this juncture Fate brought into tho piano of theso threo lives tho dude's and tho two other littlo dogs' a maiden fair to see just ahead. The little dudo concentrated himself so that ho might ooruscato with a littlo bewitching dazzle as ho trotted by hor. Just then the dudo's off leg seemed to enter into a combination with tho brace of dogs. The dudo stumbled, tho Willoughby pug stood for a brief momont impetuously on his head and tho white woolly dog made a spas modic spurt that gavo his norvous system a violent wrench. The dudelet lifted his legs wildly. Ho struck out with them, trying to regain his elastic stiffness. Tho littlo dogs tumbled around in a series of mixtures as great as con do ouocieu oy two. Somo occult law seemed to mako tho gyra tions of the littlo dogB dependent on the the movements of tho dudelct's leg. Thoy clung to it like ivy to an aged monument. Ho shook it in tho air. Ho only shook off a pair of barks pitched in different keys, ono a soprano agitato, the other a baritone chest note. Tho dogs wero thoro. So was the dude. Tho moidon acquired a lively interest in the complication, two messenger boys tarried in their breathless hasto, and tho owner of the canine pets plunged on the downward path towards profanity. The dude became moro agitated, no did not know how to get rid of this attack of dog. Ho stepped high, he stepped wide, he stiff ened his crisp little leg in the air. The dogs remained by him liko a mother's love. Tho crisis deepened. Send for a cop said ono of tho mes senger boys jeeringly. "No; better get on ambulance," said the other. Tho maiden smiled undor cover of her Sucdo glovo. Hero, you. Keep perfoctlv still," said the proprietor of tho dogs. "I'll get 'cm off." Tho dude stood trembling after a chaotic attempt to disengage his attached leg. Tho dogs wero letting off sharp yelps. Hydro phobia and a small funeral danced before tho dudelct's fancy liko a vision on the Brocken. Tho owner proceed to unwind the dogs. Ho mado the two chassez across, balance to partners, right and left, and down tho centre around tho dudo's leg. Aftor a wholo beries of dance movements the dogs wero freo of tho dudo. Ho straightened out his legs, shook the wrinkles from his trousers, tho about it I can't seo anything. I married a woman who turned out a tartar very soon, and finally, after wo wero married only a month or two, set off with everything she could get hold of, while I was sick nearly to death. But there's an end of every case. Now, you want to bo married to a lady and hero's tho other party in tho way. Tho woman is your wlfo, you seo. You're cor nered. I fear." I fear so too. You seo what wo have to pay for our youthful mistakes." It's queer too, is that. Sho was now that's very strange." Mr. Briggs had grown suddenly thought ful, and ho spoko as if oblivious pf a second person's presence "8ir Edward," ho said presently, "I'm going homo. See you again later on." When ho got to his hut ho sat down and laughed till tho tears rolled down his face. "Ha. ha I Woll, if this ain't a rum go I" he said. I do bollovo I'm on the track. I'vo hit it I soo it all." Ho stopped short, and his countenanco be came suddenly very grave It won't bo any better for me. though. Never mind, it'll mako the poor baronet all right. But let's soo. Of courso," ho sud denly burst out divorco 1 Thai's it why didn't I think of it sooner Hooray 1" And Mr. Briggs commenced a war-danco round the hut in energetic style. He snapped his fingers, executed sovornl break-downs and committed all fhannor of unaccountable ac tions till he was fairly out of breath. "It's wonderful," he said at last, "how one littlo word helps to throw light upon a subject I Ah. it was nito an inspiration, my asking him that question." When, a fow days after, Sir Edward and Mr. Briggs set their faces towards England, tho American was still iu an excited stato ho cracked his fingers, muttered strange sen. tences to himself and disturbed his com panion's peace of mind to an eminent degree. There's fun waiting us in that old land of yours, baronet," he snid one day. "There's immense fun. I laugh to think of it." Sir Edward starod at him. "Briggs." ho asked, "whatever is tho matter with you What is the meaning of this altered conduct? You used to be as grave as a judge out there, but now What is it?" The American laughed long and loudly.. It's a secret, sir. It's worth all your money aud your acres to know what I think I know to-day. You'd givo your right hand to know my secret." "What is it, Briggs? Tell me." "No, lad, no not yet. Some day soon, when I'm quite sure I'm right in my present suspicions. I will tell you, but not till then. But oh, what fun it will bo if I aw right!" littlo dogs wagged their heads, tho owner said something that began with D and ended with fool," and Itlchard was himself again, all round, Tho procession continued up tho avonuo in its original divlsioni, tho two littlo dogs still hold by tho string which bound their young lhes temporarily togothor, but tbo dudo went springing on in tho gladness of recovered freodom. TOO SMALL ORCHESTRAS. Mnslrlnn Who Arcnto Rome New York Mnnnurrn of 1'eniirlnuaneas. Members of tho Musical Mutual Trotoc tivo Union aro loud in thoir praise of Mr. Henry Irving as a substantial aud apprecia. tivo patron of tho art, and they tako prido in announcing his election as an houoruyucitt bor of their organization. At the srnno timo thoy speak of tho pcuuri ousucss of somo concert, 6peratio and theatri cal managers hero in employing small and inadiMpinto forces of musicians iu tho orches. tnts undor their control. Iicadlilg members of tho union who woro at their headquarters in East Fourth street to-day severely criticised somo of tho mau agors. Ono loader of an orchestra iu n largo and popular theatro said: Mr. Irviug's election as an honorary mombor of our union is sig nificant in moro ways than ono. Ho employs in his orchestra tliirty-tliroa musicians and pays thorn tho highest rates, while our theatrical manauors employ a scant force of eight or nine men. Good music cannot bo given with such a small corps. I know of ono manager who wanted to econo mize by dropping his viola playor, saying that tho trombone man would answer as woll for all purposes. Thou look at tho systom of hiding tho musioiaus away in a loft, as if thoy w ero not fit to bo scon and hoard. Again, tako tho Loudon and Paris concert halls and gardens. Whilo thoy employ fifty and sixty musicians in an orchestra, oven our operatic houses will not employ half as many, "To mako good music you havo got to havo larger forces than aro now employed." NEYER LEAKN HOW TO GET A CAB. Somo Observation on Women by an Old Third Avenue Driver. A woman standing on the curbstono in Park row this morning as a Third avonuo surfaco car passed, flourished her shopping bag at tho driver frantically. Ho was an old and weaUior-bcatcn driver pf tho typical sort. Without attempting to stop his horses, ho held up his reins in an explanatory fashion and yelled in returns: I ain't got no whoolbarrow, mum 1" It do beat tho divil," ho commented to The AVobxd reporter who ocoupied tho plat form with him. But thoso womon never learn how to git a cyar. I s'poso that loddy expected mo to como ovor to tho curbBtono after her. "That's right! That's right I" ho yelled at another woman who had signalled to tho upward-bound car from a crosswalk on tho downtown sido of n cross street. "Thoy'll uover learn that wo don't-stop tho car with tho horBes standing across a street." He waited on the upper crossing for tho passonger, looking back to bco if sho were embarking. The woman's first duty on en tering the car was to givo tho conductor a "pioco of hor mind" for tho act of the driver. Now, I wonder," said tho old whip in a remonstrating touo.

And ho retired cabinwards and Edward heard him laughing heartily for a long time. But Edward himself was in no laughing humor. It was a terribly grim, earnest busi ness for him, this going homo. Ho thought of his wifo, and his blood1 boiled and his teeth met togothor very tightly. And then ho thought of Di, and knew that ho would give everything ho possessed to seo her again, oven though thoy would still bo separated by a wider and more impassablo gulf than when ho was in Australia, and sho at Elmsca. And thon all of a sudden his brain seemed to bo sot on tiro, and his wholo being to whirl round in a perfect tempest of wonder, for a suspicion flashed across his mind to which he could givo no form in words. If that suspicion was right, why then there was an end to all his entanglements and vex atious. lie went bolow and found Briggs busy por ing over n map of England. I'm a bit puzzled with this chart of your great country, baronet," ho baid. Where's this placo of yours, aud what do you call tho county or State, or whatevor it is Edward pointed Oldshiro out and indicated tho exact position of Lascelles placo. Tho American nodded.

He will never do that, Ethel, I am afraid, un less" "Unless what, dear?" "UulcssI don't know, Ethol; but I don't think it is possible" And thou tho two went on through tho park and spoke little. It was evening ovening iu summer, and tho wholo scene lay bathed in tho light of tho setting sun. Tho spiro of St. Oriel's gleamed in tho distance between tho trees, and hero aud thoro a red-roofed farmhouse gave littlo bright color to tho pruvatont tint of green.

Tho boys started from their homo, accompanied by two fiftccn-montha'-old hounds, to vIbU somo traps set to catch coyotes. The dogs lumpod an old buck oat of the brush, and a cliaso ensued, the dogs circling the buck around a distance of four or five tulles and bringing him back to tho starting point, where ther brought him to bay, A fishl ensued, during which lh" boys got so badly frightened that they dunned Into trees to save themselves and watch the hsttlo between the ahtlercd monarch of the forest and the determined, bloodthirsty young hounds, Tho buck was a four-pointer, large and fat, and made a deaperato struggle for life. Meanwhile tbe boys, seeing that their faithful frlenas were getting the best of the fight, slid down out of tho treo and commenced pelting tho old buck with sticks and stones, until finally the brave animal fell to tho ground from the force uf the blows and shoer exhaustion. Tho dogs leaped upon him and the second-aged tray straddled his neck and yelled to his brothers to ulve him more rocks, and with tho assistance of his brother lb deer waa soon killed. Tho boys returned home and reportod the advetitnro to their father, who hauled the animal to tbe house, skinned him and found that he wolgbed 1B0 pounds.
