Hosr the Anci-nts Rode Horses.

That they had saddles OF some sort, there
is no doubt, but they were unlike onrs. They
were clothes of a single piece woven thick
like piece of carpet, or were doubled, and
even quadrnpled and sometimes wadded.
Among the thousands OF bronze remains Of
harness, bride bits, buckles and other para
phernalia in the department Of the ''small
bronzes" in the Naples museum, there is not
a stirrup, not spur, not horse shoe.
'Among the equestrian statues and statuettes
in bronze, marble aud terra Gotta, the sad
die is rarely to be found as a companion TO
those equestrian statues. The greater part
are without evena simple cloth. The full
life-size equestrian statues in marble of the
Balbi father and SOM, found in the Basiliea
mot in the theatre as most cicerone and
guides tell the traveler) at Herculeaeum, are
without saddles, and Of course, without stir
rups. The Balbi ride bare back. The full
size equestrian statue In bronze Of Nero,
discovered only half century ago In Pom
peii, represents the Emperor riding without
saddle or stirrups. The wonderful bronze
statuette-gr Of Alexander aud Bucephalus
gives Us the pose of the great Macedonian
seated upon his bareback steed, and he ap-
pears riding calmly and fearlrssly into battle
dealing heavy blows with as much force as II

The o,-iotn OF Toast Drinlfno.

There is something inten sely absurd in
toast and health drinking. The custom Is
heAthenish and bacchanalian in its origin,
and its upholders and practicers have always
taken gvod care that there should be no mis-
take as to whence it sprsng. Il seems that
the history OF tOasts is simply this: Il was
customary In the days of Charles H., or car
lier, TO put piece OF toasted bread In jug
OF ale, hence called "a toast and tankard. +"
II happened that on one occasion, so goes
the story, one Of the professional beauties''
of the Merry Monarch's time, when that
phrase had even still more significant
meaning than il has at present, was in 4 large
public bath when one Of the crowd Of en-
thusiastic admirers and onlookers took a
g;assful of the water In which the fair lady
stood, and drank, with It, her health to the
company. A gay, half-upsy young fellow in
the company offered TO jump in and declared
that, though he liked not the liquor, he would
have the toast" Begun in this character
istic fashion, the custom for awhile was con-
fined TO ''toastingr favOrite beauties or mis-
tresses in private parties, till In course of
time these tOasts were given on all imagin-
able subjects at public drinking meetings, ac-
companied by and by with all the idiocies Of
ship, hip, hurrah," sud call the honors, -
advancing AS men chad well drank to still
more uproarious folly. To cap the climax Of
absuriity, some toasts had TO be drunk, not
with uproarious noise, but in ''solemu sill
ence." And TO think Of all this t0mfoolery
having arisen from a brainless loafer drink
ing the health of a Questionable beauty in a
glass Of not surprisingly clean water.-[Tor-

New York Railroad Gossiu.

New YORK, Dec. 3.-The announcement
from Chicago late this afternoon that pas
senger rates had been restored to Missouri
river points, was discussed tonight in the
lobby of the Windsor hotel, and the fact APP
peared to give satisfaction to such railroad
men as were present. President John New
ell, of the Lake shore railroad, said:
81 am very glad to hear it. / hope the ar
rangement will be permanent. There is
nothing more to be said only that the change
must prove beneficial to all roads interested
Daniel Warden said: ''It's good thing
If they only stick to the agreement. but un-
fortunately we know (unless there is some
penalty attached) that's not always the case
A heavy money penalty might obige them
TO keep the agreement for two years.
At meeting of railroad presidents in the
Office of Commissioner Fink to-day, it was
decided to fix rates ON live stock at forty
cents per 100 pounds, and on dressed beef
at seventy cents from Chicago to
New York. The change to go into effect
Monday nextn These rates are somewhat
higher than those of the July tariff and much
higher than the present rates, which are
twenty and ttirty-two cents respectively.
Judge Cooley, arbitrator, decides that here
after dressed beef rates are to be 25 per cent.
greater than rates for live stock.

They Ask for a Bankruptcy Law.

lopeClal 1SlcBIdu W inc OiOOe.l
New YORK, Dec 3.-One hundred busi-
ness men of this city crowded the board Of
trade rooms this afternoon to urge the i'm
mediate passage by congress of the national
bankruptcy law drafted by Judge Lowell and
passed by the United States senate. Dele
gates we're present from a score
of trade organizations that favor
the law. Gardner Colby, of the Merchants
club and Col. F. A. Conkling pronounced
the law an admirable one, and considered it
would be as equitable and beneficial to the
Ex-Judge-Axneux, John f. Henry,
Demas Aarnee aud dozen
others also earnestly advocated the
law. The meeting adopted statement call
ing attention to the evils arising from the
various insolvency systems in the several
states, and showing the need for uniform
and just bankrupt law. This resolution was
then passed:
"We most earnestly call upon the members
of the house of representatives to secure an
immediate consideration of said bill now
upon the house calendar in order that the
commercial interests of our country may OBJ
tain the benefits of this much needed legis-
lation. We ask this in the name of citizens
of all parties and Of all sections of our
country. We urgently represent that
if action be now delayed the statute
books of our country will be deprived of such
a law for two more years, to the great detri-
ment and serious injury of the commercial
interests of our country.
The members Of the organization repre-
scented at the meeting will write to customers
and correspondents all over the conn
try and urge them to impress upon
their congressman the necessity Of taking
prompt action. Little pamphlets were to-
day printed for distribution, giving terse ar
guments why the law should be passed. In
big black letters the pamphlet says there
is a crying need for remedy for a
condition of affairs that has made it easy for
the business failures in America to increase
in three years from s65, ZOO, 900 to S173, OO0,-
900. The pamphlet says that, under the
Lowell bill, clerks and wage laborers would
be protected in the event of the insolvency
of their employers.

Regarding the Tariff.
Especial Telegram TO the Globe.


WAsHINGToN. Dec. "A few of the men
reform during the last session OF congress
are very anxious 10 renew their interest
this winter, and the recommendations Of
the president and the secretary Of
the treasury have given timely aid to
their plans for reviving the agitation
They say the result of the presidential cleo
ton means that the people want taxes cut
down and the surplus revenues brought to
the limit Of the needs of the government,
and the work ought to be begun at once,
although it may be practicable only TO en-
large the free list.
Mr.. Hewitt, OF New York, is much con-
cerned lest congress should fail TO
pass legislation TO make operative the
treaty with Mexico. On the other hand
there is strong opposition TO touching the
tariff question in any form during the short
session, when a few resolute men could cas-
lily defeat satisfactory results by speech max
ing and amendments. This line of
tactics would be as practicable
upon bill relating t. the
Mexican treaty as it would pending any
other tariff bill 1t is certain that some of
of the ablest low tariff men are now OF the
opinion that it would be inexpedient to touch
the tariff question this winter, but the pres
sure is very strong, and IL has been
agreed that the leading protectionists
and reform members should have free and
informal consultation to decide what can
and should be done. This meeting is TO be
held some time within week, probably next
Saturday. One of the gentlemen who will
participate in the conference and who is an
earnest reformer, says he is satisfied that no
tariff bill will be taken up bT the house.
