charging the Republicans in the last Leg.

Woman as She is at Thirty.

Balzac has said that at thirty a woman is at
her most fascinating and dangerous age-dan-
gerous to the hearts of men.
Perhaps no writer understood so well his
own countrywomen as BalZac, and no one has
contributed quite so many cynical illusions to
the sex in general. But Balzac's criticisms
would apply to a certain type OF woman,
more seen in France, let US hope, than IN our
own America To the blGSe man of the world,
the blushing debutante is peculiarly attactive.
But it is the woman of thirty who whirls him
in vortex of emotions. She has lived and
experienced, and she is alert to every sensibil-
ity. She revels in the part of heroine, and in
the disturbances and agitations of which she IS
the cause. She looks upon the dainty creature
of twenty as milk and rosebuds-so simple.
She goes on indefatigably playing her part.
In perfect knowledge of her charms, unlike
the young thing" by her side, she uses each
to advantage. She knows, through her we'll
trained intuition, the particular weakness
the grande passion, so to speak, of each victim
And with great .faeSSe, she becomes, for the
time an enthusiast upon the same subject,

or music-from Beethoven to Strauss-5he
will always be found devotee to each. Flat

est flashes, are we'll at her command. For
alas for her the time is rapidly approaching
when she must range among the lookers-on /;
when the chill of autumn will usher IN the
Indian summer. Fortunate is she If 1t brings
with it the ripe graces and the poetic suggest

most mellow charm. True-hearted is she ifshe

spirit. rich in self-knowledge, self-control and

r.at women Have Money.

Men who are rated as honorable, upright
citizens dealing Justly with their fellow men,
will. when a question of money comes up,
treat their wives, the mothers of their children,
with less honesty than they do the tax assessor,
and with much less consideration than they
do their office boys. The children, when not
granted certain weekly allowance, are tipped
occasionally. but nothing goes to the wife
without some haggling publicity, or huInil- :
iation on her part. Let it be understood
that reference is made solely to the pitiable
state of things which so widely. prevails in the
Clisbursing of moneys in the household, ana
the Wife's private purse. Here is an instance:
For twenty years Mrs. Brown had been a
faithful wife and mother, prudent, and IN
dustrious housekeeper, and a woman much
beloved and respected by all her friends. Mr..
Brown was rated as prosperous business man,
and as generous as most men. But all TINS
time Mrs Brown had no money that she could
absolutely call her own. The credit system
prevailed. ard if by any unusual means piece
of money passed into her unaccustomed palm,
it had to be scrupulously accounted for to the
chancellor of the domestic exchequer. she
was a long-suffering woman, but her soul had
chafed and worn against the yoke till 1t was
sick and SORE Still, she had too much self
respect. even under these degrading conditions,
to wheedle lie, or descend to small deceptions
to gain her ends and she abhorred scene
as much as any man living. So the little
gifts she felt like sending to friend, the few
flowers to an invalid, the bit of damask to
cover a chair seat, or the small surprise Tor the
children. had to be passed by with sometimes
arisinglumpin her throat, which even at times
developed into "a good cry in private. Still,
she made no remonstrance. She was proud
in certain way, and she believed the existing
state of things irrevOcable.

SEEN FROM THE "L" ROAD.
The Everyday Romance Revealed in an
Open Window.

The first morning came down town ON the
Third Avenue Elevated with the bald-headed
man he called my attention to woman who sat
sewing near a window not more than thirty feet
from the station. She was both good-looking
and happy.
"Often see her husband up there with his
arm round her." said bald-head. 'Cosiest
couple know of. Always look in on them.
She's devoted to him and home, and my ideal
of a wife"
After that always looked for the woman
Sometimes the bald-headed man and l ex-
changed words about her, but there was moth
ing new. One morning, after about three
months, bald-head observed:
''She's got an anxious look. Husband is
probably sick"
Three days later he said:
''Shes awfully worried Husband is probably
worse"
Two or three DAYS later we saw her in mourn
ing, and it was no use to tell each other that
her husband has passed away.
TOO bad Too bad ~ sighed my friend.
"Well, she'll reverence his memmOry all the
rest of her days.
Almost every morning for three months we
saw her at the sewing machine as the train
pulled up at the station. On one occasion my
friend bIurted out:
Sad She's got into second mourning al
ready It's probably case of necessity.
suppose she can be just as sorry in that"
A month later we saw her at the glass curl
ing her hair. My friend didn't say anything,
bat he looked uneasy. 1t wasn't fortnight
before her second mourning had disappeared,
and we heard her humming lively air as
she threaded spool. looked at my friend.

he replied. "Light-hearted women never get
over grieving She's singing to case the pain
Just month from that day she stood at the
window. There was man beside her. She
had her head on his shoulder.

ed my friend.
"But 1 thought you said she would

'Never said a burned word about her, gosh
darn her ~ he cried; and now we never look
into that window any more. Our romance has
been shattered and dispelled.-N. Y. Sun.

DUTCH COURTSHIP.
Young Men in Holland Smoke Their Cigars
With Their Lady-Loves.

Thackeray explained the prejudice of ladies
against tobacco as being due to the superior
claims of the latter on the affections Of young
men. Yet the great novelist could not but
have known that in many countries tobacco
PLAYS a very important part as a preliminary
to courtship and the closer union of the sexes.
In certain parts of Holland when young
man thinks he has found his affinity it is Gus
tomary for him to ask for match to light his
cigar at the door of his loved ones house. This
little subterfuge is intended to arouse the pa
rents of the girl to the fact that something is in

With cough and sneeze

In ruddiest hue of roses
Must now begin
To swell the din
With boisterous kerchew!
Oh, what an acclamation,
When nasal cachination,
On every hand,
Throughout the land,
Proclaims this ribald lord
Not ghost of Alexander
So king-like could meander,
Nor Morgan
On the organ
Play a tune so much abhorred.

Your prOboscis should be teasing,

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILROADS.
No Meeting Of the Connection Company
The G. a. q. Brpnchec.


The annual meeting OF the stock
holders of tho Connection Company was
announced TO be held at noon yesterday,
but there was no quorum and conse-
quently no meeting. This company,
which was organized July -, 1866. is
operated by the Richmond, Fredericks-
burg, and Potomac Railroad Company.
It's revenues are perhaps larger az com
pared with the operating expenses than
those OF any other little road in the coun-
try.
Mr.. Decatur Axtell, vice-president of
the Chesapeake and Ohio railway, re-
turned yesterday afternoon from New
York. where on Tuesday he had a con-
ference with President Ingalls, and others
interested in this great system. He says
the interest that these gentlemen arc
mnniiesting in the development of Nir-
GINA, and especially the WarmSprings
Valley. is great. In many enterprises
they arc taking large moneyed interests.
Mr.. AYtcll says the Chesapeake and
Ohio business is constantly increasing,
and what has been accomplished this
year only gives an evidence Of the greater
work that will be done within the next
twelve months The Warm-Springs
branch will soon be completed TO the
Hot Springs
Being asked il it was true that a new
feeder for the Chesapeake and Ohio was
soon TO DO constructed from Hinton TO
Blueheld, w. Va, Mr.. Axtell replied
that bis company had caused several
routes 10 be surveyed with the idea of
connecting Hinton with the Flattop
coal-felds, bat SO far as he was advised
none had been selected and he did not
think the branch would be built just yet,
unless by another company. 1t IS de-
sirable 10 reach this territory, but the
work Of construction is very expensive.
The Chesapeake and Ohio has just built
n four-lnile branch in this section which
might be extended TO the coal regions.
