women demanded at once.
'Just this" wes the answer. "The
married woman of to-day is of three
classes-tnc woman who puts her hus-
band and his interests first, the woman
who considers her individuality and in
terests of equal Importance with her
husbands, and the woman who considers
that her interests should dominate his.
Tho first woman considers tho name of

There is nothing wonderful in doing
all this once, but when it Is repeated as
frequently as he Is compelled to do it,
with weekly trips hero added to it, the
journey becomes monotonous, IL not
tiresome. Mr.. Evarts comes and goes
quietly and spends his time at his home
or lawoffice.
From Chicago, Phil Armour, Sam
Allorton, the millionaire cattle-men,
and George Pullman como so often that
apartments are reserved for them
through the winter at tho Windsor. Mr..
Pullmans private car is so arranged that
he can perform large part of his work
in it, as he never travels without his
secretary.
General Alger's purpose to visit every
G. A. r, post reunion during the current
year means that he has mapped out 49,
600 miles of travelling for that single
object, ard 1t is not improbable that his
business engagements hero and else
whero will add from 1000 to 10000 adj
ditlonal miles.
General Alger uses his private car for
practically all of his travelling. IL is
one of the handsomcst ever turned out
by tho Pullman shops, and has carried
the Alger family all over this country,
up into Canada, and far into the land of
the Montczumas.
Chauncey Dopcw is another luxurious
traveller. A trip to Albany between
breakfast and supper is, to him, like

points on tho New York Central's sys-
tom at all times. When the journey
reaches beyond this State one of tho
Vanlerbilts is usually along, as well as
other officials of tho road.
Not counting his annual trip to Eu-
rope, Mr.. Dopew probably averages 500
mileso OF travelling week throughout the
year. He has handsome private car,
and takes fresh budget of fanecdotes and

WANAMAHER's, STORY.
A Romantic Little Anecdoto Told by th
Postmaster General.

| PostmAstcr-S
Postmaster-Genera Wanamaker, ac-
cording to tho Philadelphia Telegraph,
told his Bible class n very pretty and
| pathetic little anecdote at Bethany
Sunday-school.
"a young and neatly-dressed little
woman ho said, came to my Office in
| Washington and said that her husband
had been drinking to excess and had
left homo forever. She told very
crcditable story and wound up by ask
ing mo if I wouldn't give her place
I asked her If she loved her husband,
and she said yes, with sob, big tears
beginning to steal down her checks.
She said she had but one child, little
girl, whom she fairly worshiped.
Her story touched me deeply, and l
asked her if she wouldn't like to have
her husband back again. oh! yes, she
replied, but ne would never come
back She didn't know where he was. 1
promised to DO what could for her, and
she went away.
II made it q point to find the husband.
When this was done, and we stood face
to face, L asked him If he didn't want TO

a prominent railroad official stated
the other Gay that but for the fact that
two-thirds Of them use passes, the men of
wealth and prominence in tho nations
affairs would be among the best patrons
of the roads.
"As it is" ho added, "they are the
most frequent passengers. Some of them
spend as many hours in railroad cars as
they do at their homes, aad journey all
the way from twenty to forty thousand
miles year"
The registers of all tho well-known
hotels reveal the names of men who
come here every week or two, travel
ing hundreds Of miles, and thinking
little or nothing of tho trip.
A rapidly-growing tendency, too, is
for man to havo his own Car, request
the railroad president to ''dead-head" it
over his line and branches, and thus no
brings his family and all his friends
along. When any express train is behind
time ask the conductor the reason for
the delay, and, nine chances out of ten,
he will answer:
"We had to hitch on Mr.. So-and-So's
car. He's making the trip with u.s."

people who can not indulge in the
luxury of $40, 600 house on wheels,

Fifth Avenue last Sunday morning
when ex-senator Platt returned from
his trip South, writes New York cor
respondent of tho Philadelphia Press.
He had been gone two months, had
travelled few thousand miles, yet he
walked over to his letter-box as quietly
as if ho had come from his apartments
upstairs, pulled out his room key and a
few letters and disappeared into tho
elevator with q mere "IIow are your" to
the clerk.
In less than an hour his secretary was
with him, and tho two took up their
labor5 where they had broken off on his
departure before Christmas, and tho gap
was closed.
Senator Platt's business affairs are
making him great traveller. He has
covered about 10000 miles in the last
seven months.
Both the New York Senators average
q trip week between this city and

TESTIMONY FROM EMINENT sCIEN.
TIsTs-AN INTERESTING AND
SCIENTIFIC FACT.
A few years ago call was issu-
ed from London, England, to the
scientists of the world to assemble
for the discussion of whatever
scientific subjects might be pre-
sented; every statement to under
go most rigid scrutiny. One mem
Der said: "Tobacco is not injurious.
l have chewed it for fifty years,
and my father for sixty years, with
out preceptible damage. All this
hue and cry about it is nonsense"
The actuary answered, "Step for
ward and let us canvass this mat
ter thoroughly. How much do you
chew" 81 chew regularly three
guilds per day, OF about this SIZE"
them from his plug. One
was given to Russian and
another to 4 French chemist, with
''please return the extracts"
Then the actuary said, "Wi!l any
young man unaccustomed to the
use of tobacco chew this third quid
before the audiance? Here are $40
to the one who will" A young
mon stepped forward. The audi
ence was requested to sean his
looks, cheeks, eyes and general APP
pearence, before he took it, and
closely watch its effects. He soon
become pale from sickness, then
and anon tainted before
the assembly. The extract from
one quid was given to II powerful |
tom-cat. He flew wildly around
and then and there died. The
other extract was put upon the
tongue of premium dog, which
uttered II yelp, leaped frantically,
lay down, and expired. These facts
transpired before the world. They
are recorded i'm the most scientific
of this century or any
)ther, in volume which costs

Arthur Beresford, an English gentleman,
during a talk said: "A few days ago / saw
something about bill to license English
actors. Such bill has been presented to
the London county council, but whether it
win pass or not is yet a question. In that
bill there was u clause which would have
provided punishment for an actor for gag
ging In forcible and logical speech Mr..
Augustus Harris killed that clause, and it's
well he did, for what would nearly all of
our actors do if they were not permitted to
slip some joke or local hit into their lines?
You might as well retire Mr.. Toole and
Mr.. Penley from the stage if they were de
barred from gagging. Your De Wolf Hop
per, Francis Wilson, Dixie, Goodwin and
nearly all the rest would be staid actors if
they were not allowed to ramble about, as
it were.
sour late Mr.. Blackstone introduced a
gag into She Stops to Conquer One of
the cleverest bits In English dramatic lit
erature, now classical, is nothing but a
gag introduced into the text There is not
one person In hundred who knows that
the comic sermon delivered by Mawworm
in Bickerstaffe's 'Hypocrite' is not in the
original. It was introduced for the first
time the opening night of the Lyceum in
1909 by Charles Mathews. He was re-
citing his lines, when he suddenly branched
off and spoke the very words of "a Method
list minister, perfectly initiating the voice
and gestures. The gag was such won
drous success that you never see the 'Hypo-
crite' without listening to the funny ser,
mon. No, sir, to stop an actor from gag
cling would be like dispensing with the
credit system in business. Chicago Trib-
