tives OF the elite OF Jewish society," and all
who were present had delightful time.
Tho plan OF giving the party was conceived
by Miss Florence Fuld, who summoned
to her counsels Mr.. +. Gilman and
Mr.. Henry Hurst, and the result of their
consultation was a most skilliullv desired
and successful affair. Invitations were is
sued to gentlemen, reading as follows:

In 1882 the average fare per passen-
ger was Sc cents, while in 1883 the
average had fallen to 224 cents. Dur
ing the same period the freight rate
per ton per mile declined from IL
cents to O.G cent, falling off of exact
ly % per cent. The ratio of decrease
in fares and rates, as shown by these
figures, has kept very even pace in
the two departments, the variation for
a space of seven years amounting tc
only 33 PEE cent. It was in the year
1886 that average passenger rates
touched the lowest point, being then
2.lS cents. From 1881 they descended
annually as follows: 2.86 cents, PAP
cents, go cents, 2l9 cents and IS
cents. Freight rates have also de-
clined, although not so rapidly, and
they touched the lowest figure last
year.

The Century.
There were troths in the hedges
And bird-mates were true.
There were trysts, there were pledges
And old loves, and new;
There was sun at the trees heart,
And song in the boughs,
And spring in the bees heart,
And whispers and vows;
There were leaves when we mated,
And now-naked boughs.
All, vows that were fated;
All, loves that would house,
Your time was belated,
Your fate-naked boughs!

A Woman'S Thoughts.

Marie Bashkirtsff.
The finest feelings are the, most
easily ridiculcd, and where mockery
enters, delicacy of feeling disappears.
do not fear death, but life is so
short that to waste it is infamous.
An act of herOism that. after it has
taken place, has left the judgment
free, is not the heroic act you dreamed
1t.
To be supreme of it's kind a thing
must occupy the mind to the exclus-
ion of every feeling that is not con-
nected with it.
How much more easily we are affec-
ted by. disagreeable things than by
pleasant ones. A thousand persons
applaud; a single one Kisses, and his
voice browns the voices of all the
others.
They say one learns only the faults
of those one copies.
Soul is as necessary in painting
as body. The true artist should con-
| ceive as man of genius, and execute
| as poet.
Nothing can be learned but what
may be taught; the rest depends
upon ones self.
If l wished-but in order to have
the wish IL is necessary to have the
| power. Those who have succeeded
because they willed to succeed were
sustained by secret strength.
Ophelia! She makes us long to ex-
perience an unhappy love.
One never rejoices greatly at any
| event except when it comes unex-
pectedly-when it is in some sort a
surprise.
II you find yourself embarrass ed by
your genius it lis because you have
none; any one who has genius will
have strength to support it.
No scene can satisfy the artistic
sense completely but one in which
the characters are in repose. This
gives us time to grasp its beauties, to
possess ourselves of its meaning, to
endow it with imagination, with life
But am still at an age when one
may find a certain ecstasy in every
thing, even in the thought of death,
