Coaching Clubs.

The New York Graphic gives the fol-
lowing account of the latest hobby of
"swell" New Workers:
This afternoon will be witnessed the
inspiring spectacle of a parade of the
Four-in-hand Coaching Club of this
city. The drags will be assembled along
the east side of Madison Square, and
the start will be made at a quarter be-
fore 4 O'Clock. Eight drags will be
present, belonging respectively to the
following owners: Mr.. Jay, Mr.. Ben
nett, Mr.. A. G. Rice, Mr.. Douglass, Mr..
jerome, the Knickerbocker Club, Mr..
Delaney Kane, and Mr.. Frederic
Bronson. The drive will be up Fifth
Avenue to S%tetson's at Central Park,
and returning down the avenue to
Washington Square. Thence the
coaches will return to the place of start
ing. The rate of driving will be slow
about six miles an hour. The ordinary
rate of driving is about ten miles an
hour, including stoppages. Mr.. Jay
has brought his drag from jerome
Park to Twenty-eighth Street, a dis
lance of eleven miles, in ffty-nine min
utes.
The kind of horses sought after for
this service are called ''chunks." They
are ''cob" built, being in a breed by
themselves. 1t is required that they
should be high steppers with thorough
bred heads and with bodies heavy and
well put together. Large horses are
not accepted, because in the rapid ac-
ton demanded they are apt to cut them.
selves and each other. All colors are
acceptable, though the popular idea OF
Il cob in England is that he must be a
roam. High speed is not wanted. Mr..
Bronson ~endeavored to import a span
of cobs recently, but the one of the
purest breed died on the passage. The
coaches are usually constructed after
the pattern of the old English stage,

the construction of springs and axle'
are adopted. They are models of roaC

In two hours after, the little beggar

before, except az she had seen it from
the streets through the closely curtained
windows. Her confidence was o o re.

she received, and then she was conduct

As her eyes fell upon the pictures,
she stood motionless for a time, and
then said, "Why, you have painted two
pictures of me, instead Of one, Mr.. Gil

She began one of her wild strains, ant

This had not long continued before
the door of the study was opened, ant
a lady entered the room. She was pale
and staggered as if suffering from grea'
weakness. She clutched the back of
chair for support, and then asked In
faint voice, Who is this singer.

Art Criticism.

A Detroit artist has for the past four
or FIVE months been throwing his whole
soul into a landscape which Is now on
exhibition in a Woodward Avenue win
dow. 1t is called a fine painting by art
critics, yet what are art critics in num-
Der to the great public, no two OF whom
see or criticise alikeP There was q
crowd around the picture yesterday,
and a boot.black took q square look at
the painting and said:
"Purty good river he painted, but 1t
runs uphill. Wonder II that artist
didn't ever go fishingS"
There was q pause, and an elderly
gentleman with spectacles on remark
ed:
"What strikes me is that all those
six cows should be switching their tails
the same way and at the same time"
The crowd looked closer, and IL was
the general opinion that the artist
should have switched over some of those
tails.
"It's very nice," said a young man
with a sore eye. but look at that log
house from a builders point of view.
Why, it's so far out of plumb that it
will fall over and hurt some one before
