THE M'CLASKEY TWINS.
They Last Met on the Eve of a Battle

From the Neu York World
RED BANK, n. J., Jan. 19.-John Nc
Claskey, a weIl-known farmer of this town
ship, aged IS years, went to the postofice a
few days ago AND found in his box a letter
directed to John McClaskey, Red Bank.
Y. j., care of any of the McClaskeys.' y
Being domestic man, McClaskev took the
letter hons and showed it to his wife before
breaking the seal TIE letter, he found, was
from his brother. Daniel McClaskey, of
Union City, Ind, whom he last saw on the
eve of a battle fought at the closing of the
war in 1865, and from whom he had not
heard since.
The brothers, who were twins, were mere
babies when they lost their father and
mother, and were brought up in the family
of Thomas Field, father of the present
millionaire farmer, Thomas S. Field, of
Middletown, who is 95 years Of age
Reaching manhood, Daniel learned the
carpenter trade with Burroughs Walling,
of Phalanx. the little community near this
place started years ago by Horace Greeley
and Others. In 1852 Daniel married Miss
Marjorie DANGER, Of Eatontown, and,
moving to Ohio, became a prosperous
farmer. John married Miss Sarah Fent0n
of Leedsville, three miles from Red Bank,
and engaged in farming in Middletown
township. For nearly twenty-five years

When Lincoln issued his proclamation for
troops in 1861, Daniel McClaskey enlisted
in an Ohio regiment for three years, and at
the expiration # his time of service re-en-
listed for the war. John McClaskey il 1862
enlisted in the Fourteenth New Jersey regi-
ment, and served until he was honorably
discharged in 1860 In March, of the latter
year, the New Jersey regiment was in camp
when an Ohio regiment marched by, and
j ohm McClaskey recognized in one of the
Ohio soldiers his brother Daniel, whose face
he had not looked upon in thirteen years.
The brothers hastily greeted each other a.
the Ohio regiment moved on. The follow
ing day there was battle in which the
Ohio and New Jersey regiments were en-
gagged, and in the terrible slaughter both
lost many men, The brothers survived the
battle, but as their respective regiments
were in different army corps, they did not
see each other again. and each supposed
the other had been killed in the battle.
The war over, John McClaskey returned
to Red Bank, where he has since lived and
raised a family. Daniel @ McClaskey re.
| tur ned to Ohio, sold his farm and migrated
to Union City, Ind, where he now resides
and owner OF 400 acres of land. The letter
| received by Jonn McClaskey stated that
Daniel and his wife were still living, were
we'll, with plenty of means, and would like
| to hear from the McClaskeys of Red Bank
if there were any still alive An answer t.
| the letter has been sent to Union City, and
| it is probable that John McClaskey will pay
| a visit to his long-lost brother.

FAIR BELLIES AS BOXERS.
New York Girls Fond of Sport with
the Gloves.

From the Baltimore american
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-"You wouldn't be-
lieve me-" said a fair member of McAllis-
ter's Four Hundred few days ago at the
Metropolitan opera house, between the acts,
you woul dn't believe me if told you
some of the peculi3S practices of the Fifth
avenue bellies who cause the men on Broad
way TO stare in admiration as they pass
For instance, there is a very fashionable
Young lady who lives opposite me on
Forty seventh street, who has
found a wrinkle that no one had
ever thought of before" Her escort
gazed in wonder as the lady continued.
"You see she is rather plain, and ord-
narily might attract no attention on the
street, but as she is usually seen promenad-
ing Broadway, half the men admire her
beautiful complexion. Aud it is natural,
too-that is to say, it is not the paint that
is sold to highten the complexion, but is
natures blush. Every afternoon before
taking a walk she is battered about the face
by another young woman, whom she per-
forms the same act on. That is, she and
her friend put on the boxing gloves for an
hour every afternoon before being seen
on the promenade. They Whack each
other over the cheeks aud uecks till
their faces are crimson, then dress hurridly,
as dressing in haste goes With women, and
walk up ana down tue SIreeb Wnlte the Color
is on. Before the complexion has become
normal in It's tint, they return to their
nome. Gradually they have made a reputa-
tion for having he rosiest cheeks OF anv
women in New York As they sit there in
the front row now you can see how pale
their cheeks are naturally, and how white
their uecks. On the street thew are tire
healthiest looking girls in New York
Sitting here, have been thinking how un-
fortunate il is for them that the opera is 50
long that tie blush cannot last all the
time"
The lady's escort looked as if he thought
the remarks were attributable to female
envy, and just then the curtain went up,
and the conversation which had been so en-
PERTAINING TO those in the rear and front
ceased.
But there was more than female envy at
the bottom of the ladys observations
There are several hundred young women
many of them the fashionable residents Of
Fifth avenue, who daily take their exercise
with e boxing glove. Some of the best
known actresses in the profession maintain
their physical vigor in this way.

Then IN direct contempt Of the decision
Of tho court they took possession Of it.
Cline marshaled his force on the draw span
aud they turned it around so that our men,
who were hurried to the scene, could not
get upon il. The nt'uders who were all
provided with picks a.d crowbars, began
tearing up the track and timbers upon one
end. Seine evidently had forgotten or
did not understand tie principles upon
which the draw was balanced, for he ca sod

out of balance and suddenly one end
opped, the iron work parted in the
n lddle, the men and everything being pre-
