Only one of the four children hurt by the breaking

Wednesday is seriously wounded that is little Nellie
Edgerton years old who is lying in one Of the
wards of the New-York Hospital. The falling glass
cut the top of her head and her wrists and inflicted
deep cash along her lett cheek and temple which will
take . long time to heal. and will In all probability
dishguro her for lie. As the child was unusually
pretty her widowed mother and her uncle feel the ms-
fortune all the more keenly.
"All the money Mr.. Hcarn could pay me-" said her
uncle yesterday "oould not compensate her for the
loss of her beauty" Adele Edgerton, an older sister,
was also out about the head but not 80 badly as TO

The Whisl1er Question.

1.-TWO fallacies are in vogue regard
ing the whisker question" says the
Cincinnati Graphic-News; zone is that
a thin-faced man should support side
whiskers, to widen hisface;' the other
that q roundfaced fat man should
favor long chin whiskers, to lengthen
his face Both are adopted on the
counteraction antidote principle, but
are wrong as wrong can be. A man
with sharp chin exposed is thin and
appears thin in spite OF his Burnsides.
And amoon-faced man gives himself a
humorous and clownish appearance
by wearing long, sharp TUT on his
chin. The principle OF conformity
should be observed, or a wholesale
change made. A thin man, for in.
stance, should wear chin whiskers, no
whiskers at all, or a full beard He
no more looks we'll with side whiskers
and u peaked chin than he would to
stuff his chest and not his cheeks or
his calves. To look well he must be
uniformly and consistently thin, or
he may modify it by q complete beard.
A fat man should be smooth-faced or
wear universal whiskers pretty closely
cropped. The well-proportioned and
moderately full-faced man may vary
the style and quantity OF his whiskers
with impnnlty so far as the thin or
broad appearance is concerned. A
very short beard gives an animal look;
if very large it indicates vanity or
crankiness."

New Yorls,s "swell'' Chinaman.

Tom Leo is the most eminent Mon
golian, except the consul, in New York
City. Says the Sun: He is tall,
well-built. copper colored man OF about
forty-seven years, with short, crisp,
black hair and suggestion OF a mus
tache in the form of sixteen iet-black
wire like hairs. He is not only an emf
nent Chinaman, he is also a great New
Yorker. He runs restaurant where
the dinner begins with candy, followed
by preserves, and making through a
long range of amazing dishes that
taste OF bay leaves, terminates III
soup. He also owns a cigar store,
where Cinnamon buy nothing cheaper
than fifteen-cent cigars, but are popn-
larry supposed to smoke only on hoi.
days. He is also the proprietor OF a
grocery store near by, where he sells
meats, fish, fruits, and vegetables,
dried and shipped from China. lie
owns two houses and lots i'll New
York, and rice plantation in China.
He is q deputy sheriff, a Christian, and
the father OF a baby or two. the gifts
of his Caucasian wife. He speaks
English, but only in the way that
Cinnamon do so-that is, if he wants
to he can talk like a Yankee book
agent, and if he doesn't want to lie
can be as reticent as a log OF wood,
and quite as unable to comprehend
any but his mother tongue. He acts
as the spokesman for his compatrots
when they are in trouble, or want any
thing from the police or the politl-
clans.
