Outlook for Western Architecture.

Take it altogether the outlook for
western city houses seems most promis-
ing. Western people themselves are be-
coming, and will still more become, al
most ideal clients. 1t is true that, as in
the east, western city dwellings have not
escaped the deadly touch of the ''know-
it-all" client, nor of the man who is
building the house to suit himself,"no r
of him who sis going to live inside the
house, not outside" and who is therefore
loftily Indifferent to the street aspect of
his house; but each, even the last per-
son, is becoming infrequent.
In the past, and to some degree at
present, western cities have been and
are influenced by men whose lives have
been absorbed by things too material to
leave them much leisure for art; but
even in the case of such men there is a
marked indisposition to dictate in direc-
tons where their knowledge is incom-
plete. They have large openness and
unbiased attitude of mind, and a genu-
inc and earnest desire to 'tget the best"
In the west is less often found than in
the east the aesthetic crank" and it is
also true that life in the west is less con
ventional, freer, less restrained by arti-
fetal restrictions than in older commu-
mites, and the true nature of people and
things is perhaps more frankly ex-
pressed.-John w. Root in Scribner's.

Securing Great Mems Autographs.

Aside from Gladstone there is no Eu-
ropean whom the Americans so poster
for his autograph as they do Bismarck.
They used to approach him through the
American minister at Berlin, and Mr..
Phelps was exceedingly obliging until
at last Herbert Bismarck (who is quite
willing to do unpleasant things that his
father hesitates to dog wrote to Mr..
Phelps asking him to beg the Americans
to stop importuning the old gentleman
for souvenirs. Gladstone is much more
amiable. He is particular to answer all
communications addressed to him, and
considerable sport has been made of the
old gentleman because he writes most
of his correspondence upon postal cards.
Gladstone is said to regard it as his
duty to employ the postal card freely,
inasmuch as it was under his auspices
that the postal card was introduced into
England. As for Tepnyson, he treats
autograph hunters with disdain. The
sure way, however, to secure his sigma
ture with an appropriate sentiment" is
to approach the old bear through the
medium of a pretty girl, for the poet
laureate is by nc means proof against the
destinations of the gentler sex.-Eugene
Field in Chicago News.

Daniel o.Connsn.. Duel.

DauiSA NoBnen DueA.
In Mr.. Commissioner Phillips Life
of Curran'there is the following anec-
dote connected with the celebrated duel
between Mr.. Daniel OConnen and Mr..
D'Esterre:
Being one of those who accompanied
O'Connell he beckoned me aside to a dis
tant portion of the very large field,
which had a slight covering of snow.
Phillips said he, this seems to me not
a personal, but a political affair. I am
obnoxious to a party, and they adopt a
false pretense to cut me off. / shall not
submit to il. They have reckoned with
out their host, l promise you.
81 am one of the best shots in Ireland
at a mark, having as a public man con-
sidered it a duty TO prepare for my own
protection against such ~unprovoked ag-
gression as the present. Now remember
what l say TO you: I may be struck my
self, and then skill is out of the ques-
ton; but if | am not my antagonist may
have cause to regret his having forced
me into this conflict
1.-THE parties were then placed on the
ground at, | think, twelve PAGES, each
having a case of pistols, with directions
to fire when they chose after a given sig
nal. D'Esterre rather agitated himself
by making a short speech, disclaiming
all hostility to his Roman Catholic
countryman. and took his ground, some
what Electrically crossing his pistols on
his bosom. They fired almost together
and instantly ON the signal. D'Esterre
fell MORALLY wounded. The greatest
self possession was displayed by both. l
deemed it a duty to narrate these details
in O'Connell's lifetime whenever 1 heard
his courage questioned, and justice to
his memory now prompts me to record
them here"

A NATIONAL UNIVERSITY,

John d. Rockefeller Said To BE willing
To Give Very Large Sum.
New York, Aug. A.-For more than half
century there has been an earnest desire
of the friends of higher education to have a
trae university established in this city. At
various times the university idea has found
able advocates. The friends of Columbia
have tried to secure an endowment that
would justify the college in adding post
graduate Departmental to the several schools,
and the friends Of the university have been
NO less active. Just now, however, there ID
movement ON foot which, il carried ont
on the lines proposed, will eclipse all for
mer plans and give to New York an institu-
ton without a rival in this country. Il d
