What ShonId She Call Him.

What ought wife to call her hus-
band in speaking to third person?
Should she say, ''My husband" or
should she use the surname without any
prefix, as Mrs. Carlyle used to talk of
"Carlyle, or should she adopt another
plan of that lady's and speak, as it
were, of "Mr. c. ?'' Perhaps it is. a
matter of Indifference in England, but
in France woman's usage in the mat
ter is taken as test of breeding. In
the provinces, it seems, wives speak of
their husbands as "monsieur," as if
their particular monsieur" were supe-
rior to all others. Or perhaps they
think this style expresses an Indifference
indicative of .'bon ton" my husband. y
they imagine, would be vulgar. With
the polite world OF Paris, on the con-
trary, my husbandn is accepted as the
proper phrase, subject to two except
ions. A very affectionate wife may
speak of her husband by lis Christian
name, while after q certain age any
other style except the surname, with
the prefix monsieur is held to be
ridiculous and a sign of provincial
ism. Pal Mall Gazette,

The Independent Movement.

IL
WASHINGTON, June 27.-A special dis
patel sent last night from this city to the
San Francisco Chronicle says:
The Independent Republicans held a secret
conference in New York several days SINCE at
which course of action was mapped out.
The conference comprised representative men
fromNew York and Massachusetts and the
other New England States, with sprinking
fromthe Middle and Western States. 1t has
been learned here that it was determined
to put a third candidate in the field as against
Blaine and the Democratic nominee, whoever
he may be. George William Curtis, while
personally favoring Cleveland, takes the
ground that the time has come for the noni-
nation of some man independent of either the
Republican or Democratic parties and gave
his associates to understand that he would
support any man who might be selected, and
who at the same time would promise to OBJ
pose the politicalsiniquities of both parties.
The selection of a candidate was left unde-
cided and it was understood that Curtis
should report at future conference.
