Hand shaking.
Second csntary.l


Hand.shaking is British. The lounger
in society, in his glass Of fashion, enum
crates its various styles as indicative Of
character. These are aggressive, super
cilious, sympathetic, emotional, but none
Of these are required by etiquette. Still,
to shake, or, rather, to take or give q
hand in mere conventional greeting. is a
cultivated art Of society. A gentleman
cannot take lady's hand unless she
offers it. and an American authority on
etiquette reminds him that be must not
"pinch or retain it," A young lady
must not offer hers first, or shake that
given her. unless she is the gentleman's $
friend. A lady should always rise to
give her hand. and IN her own house she
should always offer it in gresting strang-
era and friends alike.

Flats no Longer Popular.

NEW Y DIRK Cor. Albany journal
There may be no haunted houses in New
York, but there are good many haunted
house owners, haunted by a fear of tenant
less property. There is something of panic
among the proprietors of the costlier French
flats. Such habitations became suddenly
fashionable FIVE years ago, and until 1883
they could not be built fast enough to supply
the demand. Suites of ten or twelve rooms
readily rented for as much as ordinarydweliing
houses; that's, from 81 900 to $1,000 year.
Investments in that kind of real estate
yielded frequently fifteen per cent clear.
But the limit was reached last spring, and
is this fall past Prices of the best class of
fats have fallen considerably, many
of the new houses seem likely to remain
empty, and the boom is over.
The present liking of moderately wealthy
people is for apartment houses, which are
midway between fats and hotels. They are
divided into suites of two to five rooms each.
and are complete dwellings except that they
provide no conveniences for cooking or eat
ing. They are composed of parlors, he'd
rooms and closets and are beautiful in finish
and arrangements. The rentals are ridicu-
lousy high, three rooms in a first-rate house
and neighborhood costing not less than S125
month. Each of these pretentious struc-
lures has restaurant on the European plan,
and the service and management is like that
Of hotel. 70 those families who wish to
combine the pleasant features of housekeep-
ing and boarding there is no better con-
ceivable way of doing it; but it is mighty
expensive, and will remain so until. as with
flats, more of them are erected than are
wanted. Our fashions in dwellings change
like the style of our clothes, though not
quite so frequently.

CONCERNING A SENATOR.
A Half-W Walked Statesman Catches
Sudden Sight OF the Danger Signal
fCaicago Tribune, !

lCacago TrlbuneJ
Ex-Sergeant alarms French, in his inter
esting lecture, ''Ten Years Among the Sena-
tors" relates the following amusing anecdote
concerning Senator Davis, Of West Virginia:
There was Davis, of West Virginia. From
the humble position of a brakeman upon the
railroad he has fought his upward way to
two honorable elections to the senate An
Industrious, useful, honorable member A
'dlligent, conscientious worker on appropria-
ton committees, and, with Window, earnest
In all efforts for improving and cheapening
transportation from the interior to the sea-
board. 1t is wonderful how the influence of
early education or early habits clings to us in
after life
Senator Davis who, have just told you,
was in earlier days brakeman, once gave
the senate an emphatic demonstration of this
oft-noted fact. Judge Thurman, being gen.
srous snuff-taker, carried an immense red
bandanna handkerchief; and when be arose
to speak usually, as a preliminary, grasped
his nose with the red bandanna and gave a
blast like a trumpet. 1t was well toward
morning OF a wearisome all-night session, and
Senator Davis was asleep, bis head resting
upon his desk. But Twill say for the senator
that he was not often asleep in the
senate. Senator Edmunds had provoked
Judge Thurman to a speech, and, by
introduction, the judge unfurled his
red bandanna and blew blast of more than
usual power. Mr.. Davis may have been
dreaming of his old railroad days; at any
rate he sprang to his feet in a half dazed con-
dition, and, catching sight Of the red flag
the old signal of danger-and seeming to i'm
aglne that he heard shrek or alarm from
the open throttle of a locomotive calling
Down brakesr seized his desk, and, by the
brakeman's firm, quick twist, wrenched it
from the floor. l was not present on this oc-
casion, and, therefore, cannot assert the en-
tire truth of the story from personal knowl-
edge. But it was often repeated about the
senate chamber, and never heard any Of
the details called in question"

An AgOnizing Scream that Reopened
Court.
Evening Wisconsin,


A highly dramatic scene was enacted in
Milwaukee court. a little boy named Otto
Rasch, y years of age, was arraigned for
petty larceny. He was found guilty, and
owing TO this being his second offense, Judge
Walther deemed Unnecessary to send the lad
to the industrial school until 81 years of age.
The court was then adjourned, and as the
justice left the bench the boy cIasped his
arms around him and piteously begged for
mercy.
ooh. judge, please let me go this time. I'll
never, never be a bad boy again. I'll 20
right home and always mind my father.
Please let me go just this timeo
Pushing the boy aside, the justice walked
away, when the lad convulsively clung to
lis father, saying, "Oh, don't let them take
me away" at the same time screaming as if
in mental agony. The justices heart was
completely melted. He rushed back, re-
opened court and suspended sentence in tba

A Small Centennial Fund.

The Portsmouth On. HI Journal said that
IN February, 1882, the centennial celebration
OF Washingtons birth took place in that city.
The surplus, after paying expenses, amount
ing to 1857, was deposited in the Portsmouth
savings bank. The dividends up TO Jan. 1,
1889, brought the ss.67 up to s145.5S, and if
the accumulations continue through the en-
suing fifty years in the same ratio, the sum
will amount, in 1932-the next centennial
to g, 800, good sum toward that celebra-
ton. The Hon. Lory Odell was the last sur
