From tie He1o York Tribune.
William Wyse, who has recently pur.
chased an interest in the Washington
Post, of which StilsOn Hutchins is editor,
is well-known in up town circles in New
York. He is q man of medium size and
smooth face, whose brown oYercOat and,
black silk hat form a contrast which
mark him out in any crowd. He has been
advertising agent for Harper Brothers
publications for many years. In two or
three late political campaigns he has been
known as the heaviest betting man Oh the
Democratic side in New York. Fabulous
stories are told Of how much he won
through following Mr.. Cleveland's for
tunes. BE bet on him for Governor, for
the Presidential nomination, and for Pres
ident. He also backed Hill largely last
fall. In the four transactions some of his
friends say he made over $3.50, 900. He has
sanguine ideas about his new venture,
and he told me yesterday that the only
papers President Cleveland reads are the
Albany ArgHs and the Post. All other
papers that 20 to the White House, he
says, are read by the scrap-book man or
Col. Lamont. l heard report last night
that William L. Scott, of Erie. Is ambitious
10 control the Democratic organ at the
National Capital, and has made Overtures
to Hutchius and Wyse to sell the paper

How February Came to be CurtAiled In
the Number of Its Days.

the Number of It's Days.
February was one OF the two months in
troduced into the Roman calendar by
Numa when he extended the year to II
of these periods. Its name arose from the
practice of religious expiation and purifi-
cation, which took place among the Ro-
mans at the beginning of this month.
1t has been on the whole an i'll used
month. Numa let fall upon it the doom
which was unavoidable for some one Of
the twelve months Of having, three out OF
four times, day less than even those
which we're to consist Of thirty days.
That is to say he arranged that il should
have only tweDty-nine days whsn the rest
should have thirty.
There was no great occasion then for
complaint, but when Augustus chose TO
add thirty-tirst day TO August, that the
month named for him might not lack in
the dignity enjoyed by the six other
months Of the year, be took IL from Feb
ruary, which could least spare it, thus
reducing the month to Is days N all ordi-
nary years. Ia the parliamentary ar
rangement for the reformation Of the
calendar, IL being necessary TO drop day
out OF each century excepting those OF
which the ordinal number could be di-
ylded by four, it again fell to the lot OF
February to be the sufferer. IL was de-
priyed Of Its Doth day for all sucn years,
and so It belell in 1900, and will in 1900,
2l00, 1900, etc.
1t is said that among the early Saxons
the month got the name Of Sproutkale
from the fact, rather conspicuous in gar
dening, of the sprouting OF cabbage at
this uncOngenial season OF the year. The
name OF Sol-monatt was afterwards con-
faFrpd mDOu IL in qOngpnnpunQ of the re-
turn OF the luminary Of day from the low
course in the heavens which for some
time he had been running. The common
emblematical representation Of February
is a man OF sky-colOred dress, bearing IN
his hand the astronomical sign Pisces.
