Fright Turned His Hair GRAY.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer

rrOHi the Clnclnnatl Enquirer.
One of the most familiar faces in Cincinnati
is "Greeny" Horn, who formerly BACKED boots
in front of the Grand opera house. 'Greeny''
is a bright boy, and as he advanced in years he
secured employment to learn the drug bust
ness, and is now employed at Ben Isaac's phar-
macy, corner of Longworth and Plum streets
He is only eighteen years old, but his hair is as
gray as that of man of sixty. ''Greeny" tells
with pride how his hair came to turn gray
One night, when Chester park was in its glory
a crowd of sports gave dance at the we'll
known road-house. "Greeny" was broke, and
he saw a chance to make some money. 1t was
midnight, and the street cars had stopped run
ming, so he started on foot for the dance.
When he reached Spring Grove cemetery the
road was as dark as could be. "Greeny" knew
where he was, and visions of ghosts and other
unearthly things passed before him. Suddenly
there was a mysterious noise, and .Greeny'
became greatly frightened He turned and ran
back toward the city. When he reached
home his hair had turned gray in spots. 1t
continued to change until now it is almost
white.

A Diplomats UNIQUE Distinction.

Washington Letter in New York Times.
To Mr.. Barclay, of the British legation, must
be awarded the palm for rapid dressing. The
story goes that during recent stay in New
York the subject of his rapidity in dressing
was brought up at one of the large clubs, and
finally heavy wager was staked on the matter.
Mr.. Barclay readily consented to trial of his
speed In this respect, and, having previously
notified his valet to have complete change of
clothing ready upon his arrival at his apart
ments, he jumped into a carriage and drove
there, changed his apparel, and in the marvel
ously short space of ten minutes back
among his astonished friends at the club. As
may be imagined. this feat soon became the
topic Of general conversation, and opinion be-
came SO divided as to whether or not Mr.. Bar
clay had really won the bet in good faith that
1T was decided to have it repeated. On this
occasion the time specified was six and a half
minutes, and in order to convince the unbe-
levers as to his sincerity in the matter Mr.
Barclay was accompanied in his drive from the
club to his apartments by a gentleman desig-
mated by his opponents. This latter bet was
won by the young Englishman, who. as may be
imagined. thereby covered himself with glory
One little fact which has an important bearing
on the case is that the disrobing process was
accomplished in great measure while in the
carriage, driving to his apartments; also, that
the finishing touches were added after Mr..
Barclay entered the carriage upon his return
to the club.
