-THERE is . split among the
New York Democrats which threat
ems to thoroughly disorganize tina,
party. At their State Convention,
which was held couple Of days ago,
the country wing Of the party re-
nominated Governor Robinson, and
the other or Tammany wing met In
another hall and placed sachem John
Kelly in the field. Both Conven-
tions then adjourned sine die. 1t is
not likely that this split will be per-
mitted to exist for any length of
time, and the friends Of both parties
will probably soon agree upon q
third candidate who will be mutu-
ally satisfactory. Unless this is
done the Democrats cannot possibly
carry tho State, and the Republican
ticket will be elected.

The Enterprise is alarmed be-
cause "the good luck of this year
and last in disposing of American
crops has turned the attention of tens
of thousands of new hands to wheat
and stock-raising," and over-produc-
ton is threatened. As this over
production will result in the return
of a part of the gold from which
this country has been drained, a few
years of over-production will not
hurt US much.

Nacready's Second.

Macready once met an actor of the
name of Pauncefort, who spoke warmly
of favors received from the tragedian.
The rest of the company complained of
Macready's insolent and grumbling pro-
pensities, as they had appeared when they
had met him.
HE never uttered an unkind word to
me-" said Pauncefort. ~ played the
round of all the second parts to him
Iago, Uric, Macduff, etc.-and not a syl-
liable of fault-finding ever passed his lips.
He had tirst.class opinion Of me, l

This was, of course, highly satisfactory
to all parties, and more especially to the
stage-manager, on whom devolved the
task of "casting" the pieces in way
that would be not only conducive to their
being we'll received by the audience, but
agreeable to the London star. The morn
ing arrived. Macready staiked on to the
stage. The prompter placed chair for
him at the prompt table, and Macready
entered at once into conversation with
the stage-manager.
"How are the pieces cast9" asked Mac
ready.
The stage-manager began to turn over
bis papers, and hurriedly placed one or
two thin, narrow slips beneath the eye of
the great man.
''These are some of the casts" he
said.
"No," broke in Macready, impatien Il
pushing them from him; "I'm not partic-
ular as to who plays the minor characters,
but should like to know who is my
Iago, Uric, Macduff, etc."
The stage-manager's face frightened.

he said, starting suddenly up as his eye
fixed upon the entry, "it was the worst
company ever performed with. Paunce-
lfort-Pauncefort! Is he my seeondl''
roared the tragedian.
"Certainly," replied the manager.

A GENTLEMAN from the North stopping
at Jacksonville, Florida, recently wan
dered off on little forest stroll, and soon
came upon tumble-down old cabin, at
the door of which was seated venerable
white man, with eyes blinking with age,
and his snowy hair falling thickly about
his shoulders. He was watching little
darkey, about fifteen years old, gathering
palmetto roots. The gentleman from the
North engaged the ancient forester in
conversation about the crops, etc, and
found the old man Intelligent and we'll
informed about bis surroundings. "But
Is to wages now" pursued the Northern
visitor, "how much do you have to pay
hired help down herei Take that little
Niger gathering roots there, how much
do you pay him dayi"
The old man hesitated q second or two,
aud then slowly said, skeining his long
white hair through his fingers, "Well, to
tell you the truth, stranger, I'm not much
on wages myself. The fact is, that little
boy gathering roots out there is my wife's
son."
The Northern gentleman had no fur
Their questions to ask, more particularly,
perhaps, q "that little nigger's" mother,
Z big colored woman, came out of the
cabin about this time with big pair of
tongs in her hand, carrying a blazing
coal for the old mans pipe.

Why GIRLS CANNOT THROW STONES
The difference between girls throwing
and boys is substantially his:-The
boy crooks his elbow and reaches back
with the upper part of his arm about at
right angles with his body, and the fore
arm at an angle OF forty five degrees; the
direct act OF throwing is accomplished
by bringing the arm back with sort OF
snap, like the tail of snake or whip
lash, working every joint from shoulder
to wrist. and sometimes making your
elbow sing as though you had got a
whack on the crazy-bone. The girl
throws with her whole arm rigid, the boy
with his whole arm relaxed. Why this
marked and unmistakable difference ex-
lists we never learned until, at some
what advanced period, we dove into a
book of physiology, and learned that the
clavicle, or collar bone, in the anatomy
of female is some inches longer, and
set some degrees lower down than in the
masculine frame. This long, crooked,
awkward bone interferes with the full
and free action of the shoulder, and that's
the reason why a girl cannot throw a

A Baby Saving Its Mothers Life.
NJ. and Madame Henri Schneider went
to the ball given on the occasion of the
marriage of the King of Spain. 1t is a
considerable distance from Madrid to
Crenzot, and Madame Schneider, on ar
irving home few days ago, was greatly
fatigued. Two days and two nights Of
railroad travel bad completely exhausted
her. 1t was evening, and she told her
servants that she needed complete reposc,
and added: "Above all things let nobody
come into my room tomorrow morning
before ring the bell" However, during
the absence Of Madame Schneider, her
people had proposed a surprise for her.
They had at last succeeded in making
her little daughter walk. The child was
a rosy baby who up to that time had not
been able to advance single step. They
were anxious to show Madame Schneider
the newly acquired accomplishment Of
her baby, but the orders were strict, and
this was great disappointment. But
in the morning the nurse could no longer
hold out. She thought that the mother
would forgive an indiscretion SO well
justified, and, notwithstanding the order,
she knocked at the door. There was no
response. She went in, and staggered
back, uttering cry. Madame Schneider
was stretched upon her bed motiOnless,
and apparently dead. She was suffocated.
A crack was opened in the wall through
which the smoke from the chimney en-
tered the bedroom. An hour later and
nothing could have saved her. 1t was
three hours before she became conscious.
She is not yet completely restored. But
had it not been for the good fortune Of
the first steps of that baby! However,
we are happy to announce that she is out
of danger.-Moniteur Uniuersel
A SINGULAR WoMAN.-The Princess
Metternich, who played such a conspicu-
Gus part in the Paris of the Second Empire
as the wife of the Austrian Ambassador
and the intimate friend of the Empress
Eugene, has lost her father, and is just
about to part with one of her daughters
in marriage. The Princess was niece of
her husband, her father having married
the daughter of the famous Austrian d.
plomatist by his first wife. Her father
was an eccentric and remarkable person.
He was Hungarian magnate, Count
Maurice Macy Sander, whose feats of
Craftsmanship were famous even in that
country of horsemen. He thought moth
ing of riding up flights of stairs and
over dinner tables set with all the array
of banquet. His daughter, though ab-
solutely the reverse of beautiful, by her
| daring temper, her wit. her grace and her
originality, made herself social power
both in Austria and in France. Her en-
tertainments at tho Castle of Johannis-
berg, which with its rarest vintages be-
longs to her husband, have taken their
places among the social events" of the
current century. Her eldest daughter,
the Princess Sophie, who inherits her
singular i'll looks and her not less singu-
lar attractions, is about to marry Prince
Emile Of Oettingen Spielburg, member
of one Of the noblest Of the great Sua-
bian families.-New York World.

able of all the coal tar or aniline
group of coloring substances, now
50 extensively used for the adorn-
ment of the finest fabrics. Uranine
is said, by chemists, to be the most
highly tluorescent body known to
science. Its coloring power is as
tonishing; single grain will impart
marked color to nearly five hund
red gallons of water.
A most interesting experiment,
which anybody may try, consists in
sprinkling few atoms of Uranine
upon the surface of water in a glass
tumbler. Each atom Immediately
sends down through the water what
appears to be bright green rootlet;
and the tumbler soon looks as if it
were crowded full Of beautiful plants,
The rootlets now begin to enlarge,

mass of soft green, colored liquid.
Viewed by transmitted light, the
color changes to bright golden or
