Miss Anderson and her mother met Us, and
Mr. AdamoWski Joined us at the Anchor
lnn few yards Fl ON which cur boat lay
moored, and where we only stopped long
enough to be fortified with glass of ginger
ale. Miss Anders II mourned over the spir-
1T of Improvement" which had transformed
the old porte cochere into a spic and span
newly painted modern entrance, and had
tuken off the Powered and pictured wall
paper and reproduced the surfaces in fresh
est tone of yellow and terra Gotta.
AN IDEAL COSTUME.
Miss Anderson was in regular Thames
boating rig-blue flannel dress, intersected
with anticipating of white, with lines of
gold braid, sailor blouse bodice and shirt
and white straw sailor hat with wide ribbon
band and upright bunch of loops No cor
set, tournure, dragging skirts or superf1uous
Things hanging loose. Just a neat, simple,
trim, yet wonderfully picturesque dress for
body as strong and supple, as perfectly
under control and command as that of a
young athlete. All this is the result of san
ltary dressing, living and outdoor exercise.
Those who saw Mary Anderson when she
first appeared upon the American stage
will remember girl of IL, of splendid p,s
siollites, but typical American physique
longed-linsbed, thin armed, rather fiat
chested, but with magnificent outlines;
voice of depth and power which seemed
out of proportion to her chest strength, and
face which expressed aspiration and long
ing more than | ever saw. This Mary An
derson in her holiday" humor, her voice
breaking out in snatches of song, her body
beHt to the oars, her arms muscular and
well developed, pulling long, strong, even
stroke, which sent heavy boat-with five
not lightweight people-rapidly down
stream, was very different from that, yet
the same-just the difference between the
material and its high development and Gu
tlvation on perfectly natural not artificial,
lines

A HEADLEss HoRsEMAN.
Mounted on q Piebald Steed-The
Legend Which Fits the Specter.
Fronl the Cincinnati En0uirer

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
RosEvILLE, o., July 12.-For week or
more there has been quite a sensation among
the people living between this town and the
limle town of Saltillo, on the c. and E.
road, some four miles west. The country
road between the two towns runs along a
high ridge, nearly two miles in length. On
several occasions recently 1t Is claimed that
belated travellers and farmers have seen a
most remarkable apparition, which per-
forms its nightly rounds on horseback.
The horse is described as a pebald, with
heavy white name and tail, and most strik-
ing in its appearance. The rider is quite az
striking as the horse, being dressed in the
pioneer style, with buckskia hunting shirt
and legglns with a rifle slung over his
shoulder. But he is headless. At least that
very useful member does not surmount his
shoulders but he carries it III his right
hand, while guiding the reins with his left.
The first person to report the appearance
of the headless rider was commercial
traveller, who was driving in at night His
story was discredited, bat subsequently a
number Of people in the neighborhood re-
ported having seen the specter. 1t is re-
lated that a few nights ago Squire William
Dunn and Joan Tanner were riding along
the ridge road, between 10 and II O'Clock,
when the mysterious SpTllc lldtle luS u ppehI
ance and rode between their hor.es, both OF
which became wildly frightened and ran
Off
The man without a head and his pebald
horse stuck to the ruuaways for more than
a mile when suddenly 10th disappeared
like a flash. Neither Dunn nor Tanner will
talk about the adventure. 1t was one OF
the legends of this vicinity that at n very
early ueriod IN tho history Of this century
a head ess rider used to frightea the early
settlers.
/ he legend went on further TO state that
over seventy-hve years ago pioneer WITT
considerable money came west 60 look up "a
location. and remained all night in log
cabin which stood Il little off tho road. lie
never left the place alive, having boon
murdered in hi, sleep, his slayer decapit-

The election returns show to us that
ths Democratic party on an honest vote
has lost none Of the strength that 1t had
four years ago, and that in many sections
Is has gained votes. If its growth had
not been diverted by the tariff alarm we
have reason to believe that il would
have swept the country. 1t gained

INCREASED or the Republican majority
largely reduced. 1t carried Connecticut
and New Jersey as it did before. 1t re.
dueed the majority in Pennsylvania and
Ohio.
In New York alone of the Eastern
states, as We understand, from the
returns 80 far at hand, was the
Republican plurality increased. And

The following pleasant sentiments with
Risk, OF the Examiner: "The average
Democrat has firm belief that all men
who do not vote his ticket are thieves, liars,
scoundrels and ballot box suffers These
are his fHmilIsr and fsvorite terms
when speaking OF the opposition party.
Tho average Democrat reads no
psper but his own and very little
else" He hiss further Information
to the effect that the Democracy is an
"unorganizsd mass, full OF impulse and
isnls, very largely foreign, with q divided
ieaity either through cree d or love OF former
land, 1t Is this cspricious mass which
forms the strength OF the Democratic
party in point Of numbers and Its
weakness, iOo-becsuse Il is not trusted
by the born and educated American" 4"
He sadly observes that he IL well aware
that some Democrats will get angry at what
he says, for he repeats his worn Idea that
the supremacy OF bis party 10 due to the
work OF tho common schools and the public
library AS Lancaster cannot boast public
library Mr. Risk might have given all the
credit for its Republcanism TO the schools
Or, no; we are not angry, y::sorrowiul at
tho evidence OF mental disorder presented
by the Gbsurd conclusions quoted. When
cultured Boston gives q heavy Democratic
majority ard large number OF the pre-
lessons in our colleges are Democrats these
sayings need not be dlgnihed by a reply.

ALI the world seems at peace, but news
comes from Egyp, that the followers Of the
Mshdi have attacked the town of WsdA,,
and after ropuse In which they lost 8 900
men, sRain attacked aud captured the town.
The pIovincs Of Wady lies west Of Darioor,
and tone nine hundred miles west o.
Khartoum, 80 that there Is no direct menace
OF Egypt by this new victory Of the MshdL 1t
Is simply an evidence that the power OF tEe o
false prophet, checked for the time at least
In It's norihward course down the Nile val.
ley, is expanding in the direction of the
vast teIritory claimed by the Congo free
state. Tho return OF the fanatical warriors
OF tho Mahdi to an assault that had already
been tried with 30 great loss OF lie, shows
that the same vIgor displayed In resisting &
the English will remain the characteristic
OF the people living and fighting under this
growing savage power 1t seems very prob.
able that IN few years tho one great
power OF central and northern Africa will
DO the MahdI, and unless England aud
Italy, with the Congo state, como to tho
protection OF Abyssinis, even that power
will be overwhelmed by the false prophet
Instead OF this Itaiy has done what she
could to drive King John to an alliance
with his natural enemy, and the slave
traders have hailed tho Mahdi az q great
protector.
