Wood and, the Herald Founder.

Wood started out at twenty-four years
old to whip James Gordon Bennett, who,
i'll revenge for the defeat of a police Judge
by Woods crowd, the judge-being in the
habit of giving items to the Herald,
published the leading editorial against
Ben Wood. 81 bought myself cow

umbrella. AS I went toward the Herald
Office thought saw people pointing ut
me who had read the Heraid's excorin-
tion, for it was the first time I had ever
been abused. I climbed to the office
and thrust the article into Benefits face:

and said, without flinching: Young
man, what is your namel' Wood !
He looked Mt ME with affected surprise.
And how old may You bel' Twenty

'Twentyfonr!' exclaimed Bennett,
'twenty-four And already arrived to
such political distinction as to receive
the leading editorial notice of paper of
the circulation of the New York Herald!
Young man, it ought to be the promlcst
day of your life! And, by George he
fattered me clear down those stairs
beat me by brains and good acting"
Years after that Wood, while publish
ing the News, was fercely arraigned by
Bennett. In return Wood published day
after dny the opinions of great men on
Bennett. One day Count Johannes, Il
very credulous, cracked man, who was
i'll the habit of visiting Bennett mt Wash

Mr.. Bennett. Let me make it up.
Come to Fort Washington and see the

the couut, greatly fattered. He came
back next day. "Well," now said Wood,

Lost for Twenty.cight Years.

1t does not often occur TINT brothers
live twenty-cight years i'll ignorance OF
each others whereabouts and then arc
brought together by chance. DIR. Stark,
who lives III Cincinnati, wos born iii the
city of Turnowitz, Prussia, where his
mother md relatives are still residing.
Twenty-eight years ago his younger
brother, Henry Hermann Stark, for
some nisdemeanor, was chastised by his
father. Henry was eight years OF age ut
that time, and boy-like took the punisll-
ment SO much to heart that he run away
from home. No one could obtain u
trace of the missing lad, though tliligent
search was made. Ten years later his
folks heard that he was living in Paris
with Il family named Pappcnliclm, who
had adopted him aud we're educating
him as one of their children. A few
years later all trace of the runaway was
again lost, and when the elder Stark
died, about nine years ago, his widow
found herself, under the law of Prussia,
unable to sell any of her deceased hus-
bands property Oh .ac&onnt of the lost
son. Meanwhile DR.. Shark had grown to-
manhood, came to Cincinnati, aud began
the practice of medicine, since which
time he has. by his skill and energy,
D'hiI up lt1BO OUSluSSos [1iJOttt tel
months ago he fell in with IL gentlem;.n
from London, who was visiting Cincin-
nnti. In the course of their converse
ton, one day, the Englishman asked
him if he had brother living i'll Lon
don. DR.. Stark answered in thc mega
tive. The Englishman said that lie
asked, for the reason that he knew
physician in London who looked as
much like DR.. Stark as though they were
brothers. When the Englishman went
back to London he carried with him
photograph of pr. Stark for the purpose
of showing it to the London physician,
whom he employed professionally i'll his
family. This physicians name, by the
way, was Henry Hermann. Three
months ago DR.. Hermann wrote to DIR.
Stark and asked for history of his
family and pedigree. DIR. Stark replied,
setting forth ip fuN lisl fanHiY history,
and among other things.* nNy RATED the
story of his lost brother. by return
mail he received letter from DR.. Her.
mann i'll which lie stated that lie wus the
lost brother and that he would imme-
diately visit his mother in Prussia. That
visit has been made, and he is now cn
route to this country on visit to DR..
Stark. After he left home he dropped
his family name and retained only
Henry Hermann, by which he was ever
after known.

The Latest Things In Fans.

There is very little difference in fans;
the latest are straight sticks, instead
of curved. In lace fans, the new
est combines lace exquisitely fine paint
ings on silk gauze; the pattern of the
lace made with view to answer as IL
framework for the pictures. There are
generally one large one in the center,
and smaller in the left-hand corner.
One in rocco style was seen with wrought
pearl sticks. The fan itself was kid,
beautifully painted. This came as high
as 5000. Sticks of opal pearl IRE con
sidercd quite CONNIE IL taut for lace fans
this year. For ladies in lighter mourn
ing, smoked pearl sticks, covered with
black lace, except III the center md left
side, which contain exquisite paintings
on black gauzc, are all the rage. Albert,
the celebrated French fan painter, now
puts his name in the lower right or left
hand corner of the painting, in imitation
OF his brother artists on large scale;
of course the penchant for everything
la Japanese finds ready outlet in fans; !;
the expensive ones in ivory with raised
gold OF silver lacquer work, are more at
tractive as an object of beauty, though
for their usefulness being rather heavy.
The tortoise shells in the same STYLES are
very handsome, but expensive-none less
than 21OO.-LOndOn Truth.

hands with him, and bade him welcome.
Then the whole company seated them
selves on the carpets (some which our
queen had sent to Kassa, Prince of Tigre),
and the next arrival was of special ill.,
terest. 1t was that of Ras Warcnia, who
had ruled over all Anhara as an abso-
Lutte prince until subdued by King John.
He presented IL most striking figure lis
he walked up the center of the hall, a
rifle in one hand and richly ornament
ed shield i'll the other. The conquered
Ras, tall, stout, very handsome, wore q
splendid tippet of black panther skin,
enriched with clasps and bosses of gold
filigree, which the king had just given
him; robe of the richest silk; Oh his
right wrist silver-gilt gauntlet, studded
with gems-an especial mark of the
kings favor; n splendid sword, and his
carefully plated hair was covered with
thin piece of white muslin, attached
by a golden pin. His feet, like those of
all present, were bare. Among the wild
and splendid crowd was veteran war
rior, the oldest of the kings personal
attendants, whose ninety years had not
dimmed the fire in his dark eyes nor
bowed the gaunt, tall figure, almost MS
straight as the silver matchlock in his
hand, whose gray beard mingled with tho
tawny mane of the lions skin thrown
over his shoulder, andwhosc locks were
bound with silver crown. It is diff
cult to imagine this splendid assembluge
sitting about the throne of the king, who
is great soldier, n just Judge, and n
powerful ruler; of distinguished and re-
fined appearance, fine horseman, a
mastOr of all athletic exercises; alike
learned and practical in his religion, in
terested in other countries, and unques-
tionably the ablest prince who has been
allotted to his own; and after nm Arabian
Night-Gke Incident. e., the pvssing of
a long line of slaves bearing on their
heads baskets covered with red cloth,
containing fiat cakes called "tef," of
of which they deposit one before each
of the principal guests-all the effect of
the beautiful and poetical scene being
dispersed by the following proceedings.
Meanwhi: g several o0ws haa beeR
slaughtered on the threshold of the hall,
and large hunks of the raw and smoking
meat were placed on the baskets, the
stranger guest being first served. Two
attendants then went round, one dis
tributing knives from case he carried
