The price So the matter rested, al
though Mr.. Vanderbilt never oJan-
doned his purpose. Had he succeeded
in obtaining the desired site when r.
tried, two or three years ago, says the
tribune, work upon the gallery would
have been begun at once. The man.
Ggemcnt would probably have been
similar to chat of the Corcoran
Art Gallery There was to be n
board of responsible trustees, in
Which, Of course, the Vanderbilt
family would be represented, and the
gallery would have been endowed 80
literally that there need have been no
question as 10 funds for its maintc-
nance. Only Mr.. Nanderbilts friends
knew Of this plan during his life, and
among them only few know how
firmly he held to the idea. Ills gift TO
the public would have represented sew
cral millions and it was through no
reluctance of his own that he was kept
from carrying out his purpose. lie
looked forward TO a general supervision
Of this gallery as an agreeable Occupu-
ton for his later years. But the Van
derbilt collection remains, and il may
yet be an important factor In American
education I'm art.

Flow Senator Malone Used to Play
"Gli Sleigo" witt His Father.
The OLD JERUSALEM TAVERN
A Short Dissertation on ii) Canyasb29k
Duck Season.
SENATOR M1LLaR'5 WOUNDS,
rfr. Yandcrbiirs Intentions to Bald u
Public Arj Gallery.

The New York 7g5JUnGs Washing
ton correspondent relates the following
episode in the early life Of Senator
Malone of Virginia: Mahone's father
was a tavern-keeper at Jerusalem, in
Southampton County, Va, when the
future Senator was born. In the early
part Of the century he had come from
Ireland, and for Il time had been en-
gagged in pcddling goods from town to
town. Ills wife died when still young
and left the boy entirely in the care Of
the father. The tavern was the resort
Of drOvers and cattlcmcn from the West
who found it conveniently situated on
the turnpike connecting Kentucky and
the southern part Of Chic with Eastern
Virginia, where they sold their stock
TO planters who raised nothing but to-
bacco on their plantations. In such
company young Malone grew up. His
father instead Of teaching him his
grammar, instructed him in the rudi-
ments of "old glcdge," "seycn up" and
backgammon lie soon found II must
he confessed, an APT scholar in his son.
"Bill" became an expert in baCkgam-
mon and there was not man in the
nCighborhood who could beat him at
the game. The elder Malone was
rather proud Of this and took his son
around with him to country fairs and
race courses, where he would mutch
him against farmers and pocket good
deal OF mony by exhibiting his prodigy
of n boy. In the tavern, too, the son
exercised his skill against the patrons
of the establishment, and, IL need
hardly be said, never without being sue
cessful. When during the long winter
nights father and son were left alone
they played againat each other, but al
ways for money, just to keep their hand
in. Whether with advancing age the
old man lost his cunning and no longer
was Il match for his son, or his fond
ness for liquor got the better of him, |
don't know. At any rate he found one
day when the sun rose after night S
steady play that he had lost everything
he owned in the world, his tavern, his
barn, his horses, the good will of the
| place, everything, to bis son. Young
Malone was generous, however and
gave his father IN opportunity to re-
| trievc his fortunes. In fact the old
man won back shortly everything he
had lost and for years, so the story
| goes, father and son continued to play
cards with varying success, the tavern
| passing from father to son and from
| son to father rs the cards would favor
| either one or the other.

This is the season for canvasback
duck, says the Washington correspond
cnt Of the New York Tribune. 1t gen
orally lasts from November 10 to Jan.
uary 25 Between these dates they are
in their prime. and he who eats them
then should bless his opportunity. The
most celebrated places for canvasbacks
of the finest quality are Havre dc Grace
and the adjoining towns. Many of the
public men here make during the holt
days the flats opposite Havre dc Grace
their cunning ground. Among them
are Warner Miller and General Nc
Cook, who generally shoot together.
Both are good shots and passionately
fond Of the sport Beck and Black
burn, too, rarely lose an opportunity
Of bagging Il canvasbacli when they
can. n judge of these things tells me
that three fourths at least of the per-
sons who eat canvasbacll select. when
buying the birds in the market, the
largest and heaviest they can find in
the dealers stock They are apt, also,
TO fall into another crror--that of pick
ing out the brakes. The real cpicure,
Of course, knows better, he says. The
old families, for instance, who have
been in the habit of eating them on
their native shores, that border on the
waters of the Chesapeake Bay and its
tributaries, will tell you that if you
want the canvasback in perfection,
where quality and not quantity is the
desideratum, you must select the young
duck with brown mottled breast. There
is as much difference in flavor between
the old duck and the young one as
there is between woodcock and an old
pheasant

On Saturday afternoon about 100 children,
members of the club, met at the Franklin
school building. Mr.. Ross Perry addressed
them briefly, and explained that the dinner
would be Mt the National Rifles armorv,
Monday evening December 2S, and that Il
meeting of the club would be held every
Saturday afternoon till the dinner was held.
Each child then paid 10 cents to the treas.
urer MS a membership fee, and next Satur-
day the boys and girls Of the club will have
badges. Nine hundred children are OK
pccted to be at the dinner, which will cost
about 5000 Miss Cleveland will be present

The plan Of attacl, upon the American
Baseball Association adopted by Mr. Wi
man, the purchaser OF the Mctropolitans'
franchise, is TO put club in Boston, Prov
idcncc, Newark, Staten Island, Cincinnati,
Buffalo, indianapolis and Milwaukee. These
clubs will constitute new association. In
all of these places are fine grounds aud
parties anxious TO back ilrst-cluss mines. In
Cincinnati special fight is to be made on
the American club, for the reason that that
club lead In the war on the "Mcts.o lu-
ducements will be made the public to AZ
tend the contests of the new club. Baseball
circles are considerably interested in the
organization of the proposed rival ussocla-
ton.
1t is thought probable that the American
Association will disband and Immediately
rcorganize under new name. This would
bar all legal proceedings on the part OF the
Metropolitans for being expelled. This
will necessitate the making ofanotheragree-
ment with the League Whatever is done
it is certain that Washington will be repre-
scnted In iirst-class association next year.

4 AN TIQUARIAN, "

At the Antiquarian stores one expects
20 find old styles Or old goods more or
less out Of date at reduced prices.
We are not Antiquarians. If you
want old goods our store is not the
place to come, as we don't buy job
lots"
Our stock of Clothing is always
fresh. We add the new styles as fast
as they come out The patterns from
which our goods are made are under
going constant changes to keep pace
with the demands of the most critical
and best trade.
BY this means our goods are always
pioneers in fashion.
As to prices, all you have to do is to
get figures of other dealers and then

Cooking With Oil Stoves.

Mrs. Lincoln, the Boston lecturer
on cookery, says:
"When one tells you that there is
mo trouble in using an ol-stove you
may be morally certain that she does
not know what she is talking about.
10 be sure, you are saved additional
heat and dust in the summer, when
you have so much of both from nature
herself; but, unless you are careful,
you will have Il smoky atmosphere
and q disagreeable odor. You needn't
have either if you choose to manage
properly; the mo trouble people will
have it all the time. The way to avoid
it is to keep the burner perfectly clean,
and entirely free from the gummy
burner-deposit which even the best oil
will leave on the polished brass burner.
Every day the burner should be washed
in hot, clean suds, thoroughly dried,
and the wick replaced; the little brass
network about the base of the burner
should be carefully wiped, and kept
free from every particle of dust. The
wick should be cut squarely and evenly
with sharp scissors, and not even a
thread should be left that is higher
than the rest. When the blaze is ex-
tinguished, the wick should be turned
down at least half an inch below the
edge of the burner. If it is left above,
or even with the top, it will absorb oil,
and the oil will run over the top,
making it greasy and soiled, and emit
an unpleasant odor. Tho best quality
of oil should be used. as after all it is
fully as economical; there is less sedi-
ment in it, it will burn to the last drop,
will not smoke so badly, and does not
leave such rank odor. The stove
should be filled after lSing, and when
it is first lighted the blaze should be
watched, because it increases in in
tensity and soon begins to smoke. 1t
can then be regulated and left for
some time, especiallyif if you are baking;
if you have water on boiling, as soon
as the water reaches the boiling point
the flame will increase again and must
be turned down. The reason for this
nobody pretcnds to explain, but the
fact remains"
Bridgeton pioneer., 1885-12-31

1.-The newspapers are not paying
much attention to the local masher
this summer" observes the Cleveland
P0indealer. "Yet he is as numerous
and insulting as ever. | suppose that
the newspaper has healthier matter to
deal with. Yet the fact remains that
no young woman can walk alone in
the evening on the downtown streets
without being ogled, followed, or
accosted by some fellow who turks in
doorways or on street corners. l
know girl who tooI> a wise course
after being accosted b. big, hulking
fellow Il few nights ago. She answered
him pleasantly and told him that he
might walk home with her. She lives
on st. Clair street. He walked by her
side, and as they neared the house she
asked him to wait. She had been on
an errand and would come out again.
He waited. She came out With her
came Il stalwart brother-in-law, who
mauled the masher in beautiful style.
Any girl can work this formula. After
dozen mashers have received as
many sound thrashings there will be
less of them in the land, for the fell
lows are cowardly gossips and ex-
change experiences.
