That suggestion made in The EVENING
WORLD to establish an emblem significant of
the billiard championship is a good one, -" said
Billiardist George Slosson last evening. ''Some
such trophy Is just what Is needed to stop this
constant pickering between rival champions of
the cue, each claiming to be the champion.
Perhaps some of the billiard-tatle manufacture
ing companies may act on the suggestion this
Winter"
The fact that both Princeton and Harvard
evinced a conciliatory spirit at yesterdays

pected to be in the drummer's parade
on the 24th, and that night one OF
the largest balls ever witnessed in our
city is to be rendered the travellers at
Concordia hall. Each drummer will
wear a linnen buster and carry the
regulation silk umbrella and travelling
bag. The Mccarthy Guards will
lend a brilliant coloring to the parade.
A very pleasant entertainment was
given Thursday evening by Mr.. and
Mrs. D. c. Jordon at their new resi-

in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. Jones of
Missouri, who are spending a season
in this city. Quite a number of
guests were present, and the evening
proved very enjoyable occasion to
all.
October "a marks a white mile
stone in the history of our city, for
that day one of the largest pageants
ever witnessed in Arkansas will be
viewed by people from all over the
State. 1t is estimated that upwards
of 5000 people will be present, and
the merchants of Little Rock are
sparing neither time nor expense in
preparing for the display. The
WoMAN's CHRONICLE at first thought
of joining the procession, but on Sec
ond consideration remembered that
falling into line and marching to the
music would be out of woman's
sphere, so have concluded to stand
upon the curbstone, as the gentler
sex always do, and gaze upon the
heroes as they pass by. The drum
mers who represent the business
houses of our city throughout the
State and the Mccarthy Light Guards
will form prominent features in the
procession. We trust all who visit
the city will remember in a substan-
tal way the only woman's paper in
Arkansas, and carry back with them
a receipted bill for years subscrip-
ton to the WoMAN's CHRONICLE.

Passengers from the Market street ferry
boats in Philadelphia who are obliged to
walk the steep hill in orderte get the cable
cars at Front street nave often wondered,
particularly on hot or slippery days, why
the cars do not run to the foot of the hill.
A gentleman who is familiar with the top
ography Of the streets of that vicinity says:
s"The original plan Of the Traction Com
pany was to turn the cars at the foot of
Market street hill, but the scheme was
abandoned because the sewer is so near
the surface that there is no room for the
machinery required to turn the cable ears.
If the machinery were placed at a proper
depth it would be on a level with high tide.
and in a shor time be rendered useless.
There is still another reason why it is im-
practicable to run cars to the foot Of the
hill. The street is always very crowded,
and oftentimes, especially in winter when
the pavement is icy, teams are obliged, as
they ascend or descend the steep grade. to
pass diagonally from one side of the street
to the other that the horses may gain a
better foothold, and this could not be lone
if the cars interfered."

to convince linn That he could deliver the
goods in such q manner as to avoid legal
responsibility for 4 license. The Mayor
stated that any attempt TO deliver the goods

Le,scr-sheets Not Popular.

Tie death-warrant of the patent letter
sheet envelopes is about to be signed by
the Post Office authorities, who say that
the sale is steadily on the wane. Except
during the first four months OF its exist
ence the letter-sheet has scarcely had a
place ia popular favor. Letter-sheets
were first issued on August Is, 1886, to
the large post offices of the country. They
were manufactured blythe American Bank
Note Company for the United States Sealed
Postal Card Company, from which the
Government purchased them, paying, how
ever, only for such as were actually sold.
sLetter-sheet envelopes, said Postmas-
ter Harrity in Philadelphia lately, 'ssell
poorly. The people do not take to them at
all. In ihefrstplace, these letter-sileet en-
yelopes do not present half as good Al. APP
pearance as our regular, plain white ones.
Then. too, the letter-sheets are very hard
to open without tearing off parts thai arc
| written upon. In 1886, in the latter part of
which yearthey first came out, the sales in
this city for the first five months were lf5,-
600. netting at about 2 Is cents each S402a.
In 1881, however, the sales began to dwindlc
more speedily, and during the month of
June fell as low as 5000. The total for
1887 only amounted to 1884, 500 as against
IT'S. 600 for the first five months of the cx-
istence of the le~ttcr-sheet- During last
year the entire sales aggregated only 81
500. The decline still continues, and !

past in a very few months"
