it would outIaSl Poplar tour to one.
There are tNu exceptions, but they are
limited to small districts: the Juniper
Of the Dismal Swamp OF Virgini; and
North Ca,olna aud Cedar. Now tor
proof of what | say, to those who APP

Thc White Sulphur Scandal,

The following bit of gossip comes from
the White Sulphur SpIngs After ball
given there lately :, married Iady-one of
the bclles-and her friend, {. debutante,
wtnt with Il half dozen gentlemen to the
cafe for champagne. Everybody drinks
champagne at White sulphur, and the ladies
like to he called connoisseurs. They drink,
some Of them temperately, others like fish.
The married lady on this occasion seemed
to have been q fish. At any rate, the wine
filled her head full Of fances, and she
thought perhaps that royal gallantries
should not always be practiced at court.
SO, in the presence the entire company.
she removed her slipper filed it full of
champagne, and then, with radiant smile,
handed it to the gentleman next to her at
the table and cried lightly: Drink my
health"
The gentleman flushed painfully, and
looked embarrassed.
Drink ~ cried the lady, imperously.
Madam" said the gentleman, firmly, II
beg to be cxcused-you tell me 10 do some
thing that could 90 for no one.n
IL her reeling ladyshp had been vested
with the power of Elizabeth she would
probably have ordered her neighbor's head
oil forthwith, but as it .she merely said :
You are not so gallant a man as l
thought you were." then turning to noisy
gallant who sat at her left, she said, Surely
you will drink from my slipper ?"
This young fellow, who had probably
been sleeping with the days of Chivalryn
under bis pillow ever since he came to The
springs, went down upon bis knees like a
true knight. and with the galantry of a
booted earl Of the fourteenth century, which
Was not less serious because it was affected,
drained the slipper al a single draught, and
then cried, Fair lady, = sweeter potion
ue'er passed these lips !"
1t is said that one of the men playfully
threw champagne bottle at the young
FOOLS head, while her intoxicated ladyship
laughed immoderately. The story got out
the next day and was the talk of the springs
for week. Then it was forgotten except
by few intimate friends of the young gal
liant who had drained the slipper. These
few plagued him necessarily, and he finally
! went home in disgust 1t is said the lady's
husband heard of the episode, but wa;
too pusily engaged flirting with a dark.
eyed Pennsylvania girl to pay any attention
to it,
The scanda; would have been printed ir

An open square, divided by numerous
paved walks; on one side the river and
its moving panorama as a background:
on the other three sides large stores,
where all sorts Of provisions can be pro-
cured. Along the pavements in the
square long lines Of country wagons,
laden with fresh fruits and vegetables,
which are sold in retail quantities at
wholesale prices. Up and down the
pavements trip purchasers with baskets,
who pick out their own corn, peaches,
beans, salads and potatoes, and exchange
chaff with the handsome farmer lads.
Among them are large buyers-keepers
Of hotels and boarding houses, perchance
who have their goods carried 10 a CEN

The sight is pretty and lively. quaint

or Paris the New Workers on a tour would
get up early to see it, and write letters to
the American newspapers about it. As
it is right here in New York, at Ganse-

paying it visit, unless bent upon little

ways grumbling at their lack of subjects
and taking tours abroad TO find some
