Who is a Gentleman?
~. Y. Observer.

This will be harder question now, than ever
before, to answer. man was justly hung in
Brooklyn last week for wife-murder He was
drunken fellow, and when in liquor very abusive
of his wife. He was out Of money, and asked
her to help him make out some bills that he might
get the means to buy more drink. She declined
to help him, and he pounded her to death. At
his execution large company were present, and
the report of the scene says that just before the
murderer was executed the chaplain said
"This gentleman desires to thank the officials
before he dies" Whereupon "this gentleman"
made little speech, protesting that he did not
know what he was doing when he killed his wife,
but he was thankful to the Sheriff and all the
officers for their kindness. Is it not putting too
fine point upon it, to apply the term gentleman
to a drunken wife murderer on the gallows? We
would not be very particular about it. and would
make the class of gentlemen as broad and inclu-
sive as possible but we stick at the wife murderer
on the gallows. The line must be drawn some
where, and we would prefer, with the chaplain's
permission, to have the line this side of the rope
and the gallows.

HARPER'S MAGAZINE.
ILLUSTRATED.


With the new volume beginning in December,
Harper's Magazine will conclude its thirty fifth
year. The oldest periodical of its type, it is yet,
in each new volume, a magazine, not simply
because it presents fresh subjects and new pic
lures but also, and chiefly, because it steadily ad-
vances in the method itself of magazine making.
In a word, the Magazine becomes more and more
the faithful mirror of current life and movement.
Leading features in the attractive programme for
1885 are: new serial novels by Constance Fenimore
Woolson and W. D. Howells; a new novel entitled
DAT the Red Glove;" descriptive illustrated papers
by F. D. Millet, R. Swain Clifford, E. A. Abbey,
III. Gibson and others; Goldsmith's "She Stops
to Conquer" illustrated by Abbey; important
papers on Art, Science, etc.

Training Trotting Horse by Swimming.
Turf. Field and Farm

While Mr.. Robert Bonner was inspecting John
Turner'S horses recently in Philadelphia the Gen.
eral told curious story of horse training. "When
was boy, and 5000 looked as big as million,
had horse matched against PAGER to go a
single mile for $3.50 side. In training him
discovered that through excess Of action he hit
his arms. was in despair, when was advised
to try and put him into condition by swimming.
Like drowning man, grasped at straw. The
river ran near my door. hired a man to
row me in boat, while sat in the stern and
held the halter. We started up stream, and the
horse swan beautifully. On the return he struck
out eagerly, and actually towed the boat. kept
this up for ten days, and never brought horse
to the post in better condition: The violent ac-
ton in the water had given pliancy and frmness
TO his muscles and made his wind clear as the
ring of bell. won the race easily, but it is
lucky that it was single dash, because through
his faulty action he cut his arms into ribbons"

HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE.
AN ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY.

The serial and short stories in Harper's Young
People have all the dramatic interest that juvenile
fiction can possess, while they are wholly free from
what is pernicious or carly sensational. The
humorous stories and pictures are full of innocent
fun, and papers on natural history and science,
travel, and the facts of life, are by writers whose
names give the best assurance of accuracy and
value. Illustrated papers on athletic sports,
games, and pastimes give full information on these
subjects. There is nothing cheap about it but its
price.

ILLUSTRATED.

Harper's Bazaar is the only paper in the world
that combines the choicest literature and the finest
art illustrations with the latest fashions and
methods of household adornment. Its weekly
illustrations and descriptions of the newest Paris
and New York styles, with its useful pattern sheet
supplements and cut patterns, by enabling ladies
to be their own dressmakers, save many times the
cost of subscription. Its papers on cooking, the
management of servants, the housekeeping in its
various details are eminently practical. Much at
tention is given to the interesting topic of social
etiquette and its illustrations of art needle-work
are acknowledged to be unequalled. Its literary
merit is of the highest excellence, and the unique
character of its humorous pictures has won for it
the name of the American Punch.
