piled:

Finishing a Book.

Opie Read, the Arkansas Traveller, was being
congratulated in the rotunda of the Grand Pa.
cl1c Hotel, few evenings ago. says the Chi
cago Post, upon having finished his last and
most interesting novel, IA Kentucky Colonel"
the tenor of each congratulation being that the
author must breathe more easily with the re-
sponsblity OF writing another novel off his
mind "A very false idea," responded Read,
releasing cloud of smoke from his mouth
"A very false idea. WhenI wrote fms to that
book felt as If had just parted with old
irlends-friends who during all the time was
writing the book were with me throughout the
day, whether happened to be in a street car
at home, in bed, or at dinner. They were at my
side, IN front of me, behind, talk
ing to me, to one ano her and
again listening to me. Each had a Ito mel

tighten with happiness or cloud with sorrow

nature of our imaginary adventures Toward

were they human flesh and blood realities

amenities of Fashion.

The niceties of fashion are both intricate and
variable, says the New York Times. Two
handsome girls on the high seat OF mail pbae-
ton sped at lively gait behind fine pair of
dappe gray horses over the broad and smooth
road leading from Fifth avenue into Central
park. IL was II O'CLOCK In the morning. Be-
hind the girls sat groom dressed in quiet
livery. All this was in the best of taste as
fashion now DEGREES it. The tight, tallor-made
gowns of the girls, the large boutonnieres stuck
man fashion GA the lappels of their coats, their
tan gloves and their high collars did not carry
the suggest on of Vulgarity. These vera
thoroughbred young women going for very
quiet drive
At O'Clock in the afternoon, while the mark
was crowded with equipages another finely ap-
pointed mail phaeton, drawn by an irreproacha-
BILE team of bay horses, and containing two
young women whose attire was in good taste
IN spNe OF its smartness rolled swiftly along in
the parade and attracted marked attention
from all Sides There was g clean and extrem-
ly elegant groom behind the young women, and
TO the casual gaze tue entire arrangement
girls included, was as dainty and proper as the
corresponding one of the morning Yet a great
difference was there, nevertheless, though not
That is not in the least thoroughbred.
The unmistakable proof of this was to
be found in the fact that they drove
in such style after midday. Gus

the rules in the matter of walking and driving
in New York. A young woman NAV he as
horsey and as snowy as she chooses when she
goes into the park in the morning but when
the afternoon drive is progressing she must
either recline IN victoria or be driven out in a
cart; accompanied by o. gentleman. She can
not by any possibility drive her own horses at
this latter time without being looked upon as
fast" by every one that is informed N the
etiquette of the subject. ~

A Law that shoul1 b, Amended.

The anti-lottsry law should be amended.
Its provisions are now more sweeping than
/ they were intended to DO. as purpose was
to prevent the uss Of the mails by lottery
companies. II does that, and a great deal
more. It interferes with the publication Of
what is legitimate news.
Editions of quite a number Of papers have
been tarown out of the mails in diafere1 1t
parts OF the country, because they
contained accounts Of the results
Of raft * at church fairs,
or advertisements, intended t. promote
legitimate business enterprises, OF schemes
in which there is an element Of chance. 1,
was not intended. OF course, that newspapers
should be restricted in this manner. The
only object was to prevent them from ad-
vertising lotteries. The law is so broad in
its application, however, that it is a very
easy matter for newspapers to violate it un>
Intentionally, and wien the posso!fice au-
thorities fail to take notice of these
unintentional and minor violations the

paper has enemies-ere quick to inform

of having done something calculated to
annoy newspapers, since there are very few
newspapers which have not annoyed con-
gressmen at one time or another. There
ought to be enough congressman, however,
who have such high sense of duty as not
to permit themselves to be Influenced in the
discharge of their public duties by desire
to retaliate.
The newspapers are not the losers by hav-
ing their editions thrown out of the mails
The Subscribers the constituents of the
congressman, are the sufferers. and if con-
gressmen refuse 10 amend the law, so as to
limit it in its operations to the evil intended
to be remedied. they will injure the
readers of the newspapers, not the news
papers. One of the first things congress
should do on reassembling is to amend the
anti-lotterY law

Official financiers in Washington express
the opinion that the expenditures for pen
slons during the fiscal year will amount to
at least Sl40,00O,0OO, to cover which less
than 500 100000 was appropriated at the
last session Of congress. Pension bu ,iness
is progression. Each quarter the ex-
penses increase. Since the 1st of July.
S64, OO0,O00 have been drawn out of the
treasury for pensions. About $4,000. 900
have been drawn during the present month.
ard the treasury department has a faint
hope that that sum will not be spent at
once, but will last until the LIST of January
Thus there is likely to be deficiency in
the appropriation for the present fiscal
year on account of pensions of SIC 900, 900
