Young Jim was not a wild roysterer before
his marriage, as it has been so frequently
asserted in print. He was never the decor
ative artist for any eity-not even for the
suburban town. He never painted any col
lection of horses red. He is not, as he is
generally shown up to be, a brswler with
policemen and whoopsr-np in the early
and small hours of the morning. He was
nothing of the kind; on tho contrary he was
vapid. He is nearly six feet high, has a
nose as big and self -assertive as his fathers,
whom ne resembles very strikingly. He has
a foot that would make the proper mate for
the most generously developed girl in Chi.
cago. During the few years that he was a
"Mscaropi" in Washington life he dressed
as only dudes array themselves, wore his
hair banged, lisped sweetly and smoked
cigarettes all the time. He would occasion
ally take three glasses of beer of an evening.
He was then very lively and would hare an
awful head the next morning, but that was
about the extent of his dissipation, except
that he would play pool. He has been
known to indulge in at least FIVE games in q
single night. His cigarettes were not dis
sipation with him. They were part of his
life. The general impression that he gave
one was that of young man with nothing
to do, the same amount of "gray matter
in his occupit and generous allowance of
public money, in the expenditure of which
he was very chary. Those who know the
Blaine family well are not surprised to learn
that the mother has taken her son from his
wife, for she is the kind of woman to do
such thing if she desired it, and he is just
the kind of an individual to be as clay in the
hands of Blaine mere.

President Cleveland's English friends are
condemning his action in the Sackville mat
ter. And he didn't act promptly enough to
suit his American supporters. II is hard
work to try to be in two places at once.
An Australian missionary tells the follow
ing story against himself: "When I asked
the word for sin they gave me one for thin.
and 30 I was led into representing that it
WAS hateful to God for man to be thin; and
that they would be condemned for it. So
they came to the conclusion that ID was pleas
ing to God for people to be fat. In fact, I
had been telling them that all lean people
went to hell and fat people to heaven"

Invalid Visitors In California.

But it is hard to decide whether the man
who comes out here sick and goes home well
or the man who comes out here well and has
such good time he goes home sick is the
most effective advertiser OF course, we
really make more money out of the sick
people than out of the well ones. We may
lose on the well ones Hospitality is expen-
sive, whereas doctors and drug stores and
delicacies suited TO sick people are ell pro-
ductlve of pecuniary profit and bring money
here We give them climate of course, but
climate does not cost anything, however valu-
able health may be TO them.
There does not seem to be any improperly
in sending in q big bill to sick man. He
comes out ready for it and he xpects to pay
Yet he has no fun and precious little comfort
when he is i'll. But when a fellow is well
enough to so down in the Office of hotel and
kick about the extras everybody seems anx-
ious to make him comfortable. A man who
is well and has good time comes back again
A man always returns to the place where he
had good time; but a man who has gotten
over serious attack Of sickness here is liable
never TO want to come back. And there are
after all great many more well people who
want a good time than sick people who want
to find recuperative climate. Perhaps it
would be better to drop our cry about the
climate and make our motto "A Good Time"

The Crown Princes Children.

The prince, who is as witty as he is affable
and good natured, is famous for numberless
smart sayings in official and private inter
course. A few Of the numerous jeuI desprit
attributed to him will show the bent of his
sprightly and high principled mind. When
Prince William, his eldest son, was sent to
school at Cassel, the head master of the
gymnasium inquired whether the future heir
TO the German crown was to be addressed
royal highness by the teachers. Good
heavens, no" exclaimed the judicious father,
do not burden him with heavy title all
his age. He will be oppressed by the weight
of it early enough in life, / can tell you"
And so Prince William was you'ed Ito imi-
tate German phrase, like the other young
men, and had his full share of the schools
labors and discipline, as well as of the rough
handling religiously dealt to new Corners by
the elder boys What knowledge of life
German princes are able to acquire by thus
early mixing with their equals in age, if not
in rank, as q matter OF course stands them in
good stead in later years.
Some time anterior to this instructive little
incident, Prince Henry-then a small boy. at
present an intelligent captain in the i'm
perial navy-objected to his ordinary ablu-
lions IN The morIlnS. flnulng him reIrac-
tory beyond her powers OF persuasion, the
crown princess reported the young offender
to his father, who took his measures without
saying much about it. On the following
day, as the boy came home from his drive,
he complained to his father that the sentinel
at the door had not paid him the usual
courtesy of presenting arms ''Of course
not" was the reply. 'Prussian sentinels do
not notice unwashed boys" Never again

FIRST STAGE EXPERIENCE.
An English Actor Tells q Funny Story
About His Stuffed Legs.

An English Actor Tells q Funny Story
About His Stuffed Legs.
Charles Warner, the English actor, who
created the part of Coupeau in Charles
Reade's version of Zola's ''L'Assommoir,'
thus relates his first experience on the stage:
81 obtained an engagement at one of the
small provincial theatres; but how to get
wardrobes had no money save a few shil-
lngs; however, made confident OF my Sis
ter and she assisted me in my dreadful de-
signs. She gave me about thirty shillings,
and with this sum l repaired to a second
hand theatrical depot, and purchased several
useful properties-sword, white wig, stock
ings, etc. But, oh heavens! when l tried on
the stockings they were sizes on sizes too
large for nv shanks! What was l to do!
Happy thought! my sister came to the res
cue, and made me pair Of lovely legs. She
dexterously sewed some pieces Of flannel,
piled one upon another together, and when l
placed them on the spot where my calf ought
to have been they looked magnificent.
'On, my first night l played two parts,
Bras Rouge in Mysteries of Paris, and Saib
in Castle Specter.' Sab, my first part, was
black but virtuous slave. My calves came
into requisition, as | wore only black tights
and loose Indian shirt. When was dressed
for Saib heard remarks anything but COM
plimentary from the other actors, who all
dressed in one long room, my legs-hannel
legs-being specially acted for chat. l must
have looked awfully funny-a tall, raw boned
youth, with very little flesh on my bones,
and those enormous legs. Well, got on the
stage, and my first scene was nearly over. I
had terrific struggle with Earl Percy in
the piece. On rising from the ground, where
he had thrown me in the terrible encounter,
there was a loud laugh from all parts of the
house l could not tell in my nervous excite
ment. what had happened. Earl Percy pointed
to my poor legs, and there were the huge
calves in front Of my shins. In the struggle
they had slipped round, and deforlned my
otherwise very straight legs. Oh, if l could
only sink throug b the stage! But, no, must
finish the scene. And finish it did, amid
the laughter of the whole house. l may add
that they made me double a part in the piece,
from Saib to captain Of the guard. 1t was
a very quick change, and on resuming the
dress of Saib, my right calf was nowhere to
be found. l was i'll despair.
Sir, there is stage wait for you,' cried
q voice; and, in my terrible excitement,
rushed on the stage, with one huge stuffed
leg and the other poor spindle shank,
shriveled like King Richards arm.
''Never shall l forget the pesls Of laughter
as entered Speaking was out of the question
After many vain attempts, made a most
ignominious exit. | never wore flannel calves
again"

japanese artists long before they became
famous in ShakeSpearcan recitations in this
country, ami, perhaps, before Shakespeare
was born. On the walls of great tea store

japanese pictures illustrating the seven
picturesque periods Of mans existence. The
material used is mating. not canvas. and
great ingenuity is displayed in the execution
of the tableaux. The infant, of course,
figures in the first picture. The next shows

FLASHED UNDER THE SEA.
Ingenious Business Men Who Can Givs
Points to the Cable Manarers

Points to the Cable Managers.
When ocean cabling cost 81 a word it was
perfectly natural that the brokers and
merchants who found it desirable to use that
means of communication for business should
do everything possible to reduce the num-
Der OF words necessary TO convey the mean
ing of their messages. One Of the methods
Immediately employed for cutting down the
quantity of language was the employment
OF cable codes, where designated word was
used for an entire phrase, and another method
was TO register a word or a name at the
offices at either end of the line which
served as the address. The people who use
the cables have gotten on to a new wrinkle
in the registering Of the names, to which the
cable companies distinctly object, but SO
long as the present competition continues
they don't feel themselves strong enough to
take any determined stand in the matter
The wrinkle in question is the arrange
ment of the cable code in such way that
the address not only serves to carry the mes
sage to its destination, but has significance
of its own. For instance, New York firm
telegraphing to its London branch addresses
them under twenty-five or thirty different
registered names, all OF which are recor led
ia the London Office. If the message is sent
to Jack, London, it not only reaches John
Smith & Co, for whom it was intended but
John Smith d Co. know from the very fact
that they have been addressed as Jack, that
LOCO pieces of some line of goods are re-
quired TO be sent by the next steamer. Ii.
on the other hand, the firm is addressed un-
der the name Of Robert, London, which is
also a registered name, and which reaches
the firm in due course, they know that a diff
ferent order is intended. Ia this way these
ingenious people practically get out of pay
ing for the address, and the cable company
see them wriggling out of the responsibility
Of cable regulations, and are practically
powerlcss to do anything.
Another favorite mode Of cutting down
the number Of cable words, especially in
cabling to Germany and Italy, is to take two
or three foreign words, each of which may
represent phrase, and blend them together
in what appears to be one word. By this
means nine or ten letters of the alphabet,
costing twelve or fifteen cents for its trans
mission, conveys to the other side an entire
sentence. The regulation in regard to the
length Of words is that no word, either a
manufactured word for code purposes or a
genuine word Of the language, shall be trans
mitted for the ordinary tariff if it exceeds
ten letters in length.--New York Mail and
Express.
