An Eprl;sh Actor in America.

Edward s. Willard, the English actor,
who has just presented the serious success
of the last London season, Henry Arthur
Jones' play of ''The Middleman," in New
York, has come to America earlier in his
career than is usual with English candi-
dates for American honors. That is to his
advantage rather than otherwise. AS he
is now only 81 years of age the theatre
goers of this country may see him before
he shows suspicion of decadence.
Mr.. Willard has been twenty-one years
on the stage, making his debut at the
Theatre Royal, Weymouth, in 1869. He
played in the provinces and in stock COM
panies until 1875, when he obtained Lon
don engagement at Covent Garden in "a
Roland for an Oliver" in which he was
cast as Alfred Highdyer. This was fol-
lowed by another long spell of work in the
provinces, and not until 1881 did Mr.. Viii
lard act in London again. 1t was as the
Spider in 'The Silver King play that Mr..
Willard made his first London success.
"The Middleman" was first given with
Mr.. Willard in the title role at the Shaftes-
bury theatre, London, under his own man.

wonderful pacing gelding, in his great race
with B. B. Three of the fastest race pac-
ing heats on record were the result of the
meeting between these two stars. They
were all better than 2:12 and one touched
the 2:09M mark, making a new race record
in Hal Pointers favor.
Halls turf career has only covered three
seasons He won the second of his two
races in 1888. and made record of $685..
In 1889 long list of victories and one de-
feat marked his tour of the country, and
he closed the season with Il record of 2:13.
This season Hal defeated everything that
stood before him, two of the cracks to low
er their colors being Adonis and B. B.
Halls friends feel positive that he will de-
crease the race record below his present
mark-209% He is now owned by Buff.

Will Not Return.

A friend of Adelina Patti who lives in
New York recently received letter from
the 'divine diva" denying the statement
that she intends returning to America. It
has also been definitely settled after many
contradictory rumors that the London

Leslie and Nellie Farren are the leading
lights, will not appear in America this
season. Both Miss Farren and Mr.. Leslie
are too unwell to undertake an American

The Indians believe that if the stiffness
over the waters of a lake be broken by
any careless word the spirits of the place
will be offended. In the days of the
early settlers, we are told, a white woman
had occasion to cross Lake Saratoga, and
the Indians, who were to row her across,
warned her of the danger that one rash
word might bring; but of course, being
a white woman, she was superior to all
such superstitious notions.
1t was a calm, cloudless day, and the
canoe sped like an arrow across the
smooth waters. Suddenly, when in the
middle of the lake, the strong minded
woman determined to prove to these
simple folk the folly of their belief. Sc
she lifted up her voice in a wild cry tina
woke every echo Of the hills.
The Indians were filled with consterna
ton. They uttered no word, but, strain.
ing every nerve, rowed ON in frowning
silence. They reached the shore in
safety, and the woman triumphed; but
the Mohawk chief looked upon her in
scorn. 1.-THE Great Spirit is merciful, Sc

man cannot hold her eace."-Youth's

1.-The city jay is a heap more OF a lamb

1--WE just had fresh proof of it. You re-
member the horse sale held here a short
time ago? l made up my mind to buy a
horse, and went down there. A friend
of mine, who knew that Ihad good judg-
ment regarding horsefesh, asked me if l
would help him in selecting one and /
said / would, so we went down together.
He had a buggy horse, but he wanted a
better one, and didn't want to be swim
died. We looked the horses over some
what, and / became interested in a mare
of fine condition and blood and bought
her. A short time afterward a 3-year-old
colt was brought into the ring and it
caught my friends eye at once. He
asked me what ! thought of it. 1 looked
the horse over and told him it was a very
fine animal and that he would make no
mistake in buying it. The colt was put
up without any especial attention having
been given it, and at an off moment and
before my friend knew it, the horse had
beer knocked down to him for the ridic-
ulously low figure OF $S5. l told him he
had a good bargain and went away.
1.-The other day l ran across him and
asked him how he liked his purchase.
He looked at me kind of sheepish and
made a confession. Said he had weak
ened somewhat of the purchase after he
had taken possession of the colt, and it
had occurred to him that an Ss5 horse
wasn't exactly what he wanted. While
he was meditating, with more or less re-
greet, on he purchase, he ran against a
man who asked him if he had bought
the colt. He told the stranger he had,
and the man smiled and said the colt
was vicious and plenty dear at SS5. Then
the stranger said he had a spanking good
driving horse, and if my friend would
give him his stable address he would
drive around next day and show him the
animal. This was done, and the man
came with a fine animal and took my
friend for a spin on the boulevard. He
left him at his door. and called on him
the next day and tried to negotiate a
sale, but my friend, having two horses.
didn't want another. The upshot of it
all was that my friend traded his two
horses for the one of the stranger and
gave him an order on the stableman for
them, the understanding being that the
man was to deliver the horse he had ex.
hibited when he too the other two away.
My friend called around at the stable in
the afternoon to see his new possession,
ahd was floored to learn that his two
horses had been taken away and nothing
left in exchange. And he didn't know
the swindler or. anything about him. He
is now mourning the loss of the horse he
owned in the first place and also the
colt, which was worth $500 of any mans
money. When the city man enters the
'chump' class he takes the blue ribbon"

One Of the most beautiful and costly
clocks ever made was sent many years
ago by the East India company as a gift
to the Emperor of China. The case was
made in the form Of a chariot, in which
was seated the figure of a woman, with
her right hand resting on the top of a
tiny clock, which was placed in the side
Of the carriage. Some of the wheels that
moved the clock were concealed in the
body of a bird that had seemingly alight-
ed upon the lady's finger. Over her head
was an umbrella hat concealed a silver
bell. This, although it seemed to have
no connection with the ~timepiece, struck
the hours, and it could be made to repeat
by touching a diamond button fixed be-
low the dial of the clock. AT the feet of
the lady's figure was a golden dog, and in
front of her were two birds that were
apparently flying before the chariot.
This exquisite clock, with all its neces-
sary parts, was made of gold, and was
most deliberately ornamented with pre-
cious stones,-Jewelers' Circular.

outrages Committed by Desperadoes
in Browns Park.

On the morning of the Goth of May,
Hoy with two men started to gather cattle
and on their way passed the ruins OF the
burnt house in Browns park. When
near there they met Dart who stated he
was going to see a neighbor, but instead
and came in ahead Of Hoy and his men and
concealed himself IN the brush while they
passed. Soon alter this, says the Rock
Springs LndPeHdenfs informant, while
passing through some timber Hoy and
his men separated; he had only gone a
short distance when he met the three
men armed with guns and pistols. They
attacked, beat and kicked him until un
conscious. They next met one
OF the other men and took his
rope of his saddle and left. Owing
to Browns park being SO near the
territorial lines it affords a good oppor-
tunity for rascals and thieves to congre-
