The Stage Names OF Women.
TFrom the New York world.l

There is something remarkably incon-
gruous in the names young women select
when they go on the stage. The more ma
ture, ponderous and heavy they grow, the
more tenaciously they cling to infantile
titles. At one theater in New York there
is q young woman who is known to the
public as Birdie, and in another Nellie
Rosebud is displayed in monstrous letters.
Miss Rosebud looks strong enough to cut
hay, and Birdie would unquestionably
kick the beam at one hundred and eighty
pounds. When she makes her way heavi-
ly to the foot-ights and sings a patriotic
Irish song in a rumbling contralto voice
the spectator is forcibly smitten with the
idea that Mary Ann would be a far more
appropriate name than Birdie. In the
case of famous burlesque actress it is
doubtful if a more utterly misleading
name could be- found than Fay. The
mental picture conjured up by the simple
word s'Fay" is that of a beautiful, delicate
woodland sprite, dainty as poets dream.
The word is more or less an expression of
airy fancy. The particular Fay in ques-
ton has the proportions of very square
shouldered, thick-legged and sturdy young
womanhood- Between the acts it is worth
the trouble at times to run over the names
of the "ladies of the chorus" when these
young persons are dignified by an appear
ance ON the program There is always
a strong yearning for high social patro-
nymics. Such names as Totty Vanderbilt,
Jennie Astor, Tillie Gould and Baby Nc
Allister are by no means uncommon Ev-
cry celebrity that comes up is almost in
stantly honored by the chorus. There are
dozens of Clevelands in the whole gamut
of namby- y-pamby names, all the way from
Tootie to Birdie, though the name was un-
known in the chorus before the ex-presi-
dents marriage.

A native paper of India has this to say
about Christian missionaries: 'fWe must
not fear the missionaries because they have
white faces, or because they belong to the
ruling class. There is no connection be-
tween the Government and Christianity,
for the Queen-Empress proclaimed neu-
trality in all religious matters in 1858. We
must, therefore, oppose the missionaries
with all our might. Whenever they stand
up to preach, let Hindu preachers stand
up and start rival preaching at distance
of forty feet from them, and they will
soon flee away. Let caste and secretarian
differences be forgotten, and let all the
people join as one man to Danish Christian
ity from our land. All possible efforts
should be made to win back those who
have embraced Christianity, and all chill
dren should be withdrawn from mission
schools"
And now we are told to be afraid of the
elegant and stately golden rod. A Maine
man says golden rod is responsible for
many cases of influenza, at least he is sat
isfied that such has been its effect upon his
family. He thus argues from the fact that
two days after his daughter had placed a
large bunch of the flower in the family
parlor several members of the family be-
gan to sneeze, complain of sore throat and
feel greatly depressed, but not for several
days did they find out the cause of their
illness. He thinks that the flowers give
off an imperceptible powder-like substance
| which is taken into the lungs by the sleep
er, causing an irritation, also that this
making the limbs feel as though burdened
by some heavy weight, and depressing a
PERSONS spirits.
| Woman doesn't seem to be living quite
up to her privileges in France. A French
woman lately wrote for Partisan journal
an article SO exasperating that a man who
was affronted by it, Knowing that its
author was a woman, challenged the editor
of the journal in which it appeared, and a
duel was fought, if the procedure may be
called fighting, which swas only little
more ridiculous than most French duels
and apparently not more serious in its re
suits. At meeting of the League fol
the Emancipation of Women" resolution
was passed severely concuring Madam Sew
crime, the writer of the obnoxious article
for not accepting the whole of the respon
sibility of it in her own person, and meet
ing M. Mermeix on the field of honor, in
stead of allowing man to take her plac
there. By this default, says the League
she was "guilty of deed of inferiority." !"

The People I'm Connecticut


The interest taken by the people of the
state of Connecticut in a political campaign
depends good deal on the clearness with
which they apprehend the relation of the
issues to their own affairs. That is human
nature If the points in dispute seem re-
mote, large numbers of them may stay at
home on election day and let what appears
to them like fictitious enthusiasm bubble
away in political pot that they assume
contains no supper for them.
This time everybody's supper is concern
ed. With some it is the matter of the tariff
that comes first. Manufacturers and the
people they employ and the farmers and
storekeepers who sell their products to the
mill population have lively interest in the
protective policy that encourages their
prosperity and has done SO much to build
up thriving villages, where otherwise would
have been nothing but the farms and tim
| Der lands of years gone by. The republi-
can party has steadily supported this pol
| icy; the democratic party opposes it more
or less bitterly according to the region in
which it finds itself.
And note that the older men in the par
| ty in Connecticut follow the new light OF
Roger Q. Mills and Carlisle and such mer
in q very faint-hearted fashion. They
know by long observation that this stat,
of Connecticut has more to lose than Il
gain by the change they are forced Il

cratic party here is the younger part, an,

ONE WORE WRONG.

Again the payment of the French spoil,
refusing to concur with the senate which ap-
proved the action of the court and allowed
the payment of the claims upon which fa-
vorable adjudiction has been taken. AS
these claims are acknowledged to be just,
and as they have been before congress
for hundred years more or less, this fail
ure is very lamentable. What the failure
means to some people is indicated by a
fact or two which may be mentionable
Mr. Earle of Chicago is an elderly and
very respectable lawyer, who for many
years has made speciality of these
claims. He became interested in them
about 1870, and has been at work trying
to get them paid from that day to this.
He fought the claims through the Court of
Claims, and besides his years of labor, has
invested about $50, 900 of his own money
in prosecuting the case. The bill
defeated appropriated only s5OO,0O(
and of this Mr. Earle would have received
about 100000. But the precedent would
have been of much greater value than the
appropriation, as in the end Mr.. Earle hat
hoped to get about s1,O00,000 out of thu
adjudication of the claims. He is in poo
health and has been SO wrapped up in thi
enterprise that his friends fear that tn
effect will be fatal to him. All the origi
nal claimants under the French spoliatiol
have been dead a half century, but in tn
gallery of the house were scores of thei
descendants and heirs, and as the defeat O
the bill was announced more than on
woman was seen in tears.

RATHER EXCITING.
A Pittsburg Manufacturer on n RuI
away Car Catches the Engine.

- HttkS0uEs Oh u kuhe
away Car Catches the Engine.
,i7i' From the Pittsburg Dispatch.l
An iron manufacturer of this city had a
thrilling experience on the Pennsylvania
railroad few days since that so far has
not found its way into print. He had en-
gagged ten section in a sleeper at Philadelphia
for himself and family, but by some mis-
take the first section of the train to which
the party belonged pulled out of the Phil
adelphia depot before the family arrived.
There was hustling for a few minutes and
another sleeper was found and put into the
second section, and as there was no time
for proper makeup the sleeper was placed
next to the tender of the locomotive. ALI
went well enough until the train had come
some distance down the slope of the noun
tain, when the manufacturer happened to
notice that the car was running at a terrific
rate of speed. Turning to look for the To-
comotive he was horror stricken to see it
scudding away like the wind, trying to
keep out of the way of the train and the
engineer making frantic motions for some
thing to be done.
The passenger seized the brake whee
and was further horr1hed to hnd the cnalI
broken. By this time the engineer, seeing
| that the passenger had sense enough left Il
| act, slowed the locomotive until the flying
l train came within ear shot and called Il
| the iron maker to run into the lavatory anC
l turn the valve on the air-brake. He obey
| ed, but found the door locked and soms
one inside who refused to open the door
There was no time for explanation, so he
| kicked the door in and caught the valve
| just as the irrate occupant was getting in
| good fighting trim. The latter then com
| pretended the situation and gave over his
| belligerent demonstrations. The speed oi
| the train was slackened sufficiently to al
low it to connect with the locomotive and
| the repairs were made. The trouble wa'
that the coupling had pulled out of th'
sleeper.
This is the explanation of why fas
| train on the Pennsylvania railroad was foul
hours late a few mornings since.

stanley Was Not Cruel.


Nothing could be more unjust than the
charges of wanton cruelty and bloodshed
freely made against him by many who
ought to have known better. When hemm-
ed in by bloodthirsty cannibals, bent on
slaughtering him and all his men, he could
fight like an Afghan; but no wanton blood
shedder would have cleft his way through
the most savage region on earth, with such
slight loss both to friends and foes. No
mere destroyer would have kept his armed
followers from taking by force from the
selfish brutes around them the food for
want of which they We're often dying by
inches. All these things evidence the very
opposite of cruel nature. Those who can
read in the great pioneers dark, worn face
that expression of native power and com
mand, that ''go-anywhere- and -do-anything'
look which marks and ennobles all such
men, will have no cause for disappoint-
ment in comparing his deeds with their
| doer While the world at large is al
ways ready to give its great men and bene-
factors the full need of credit they deserve,
there will always be found some narrow
natures ready to vent their maliciousness
and displeasure.

AUTUMNAL ADVICE.

Keep your feet warm and dry
Wear waterproof boots in preference to arc
tics or rubbers.
Keep your eye on your r-abreIla-you viii need
it yourself.
Stop a cough or a cold at once. Pneumonia
and consumption may be started by either.
II you wear rubbers take them OF whenever
you have the chance, even II only for a few min
utes.
II you feel a cough or a cold coming on take
drink of pure whiskey at once. Ii VIII keep the
blood in circulation and is the best preventive
against the diseases OF the season.
Remember that only, pure whiskey should be
taken. Duffy's Pure Malt whiskey has the
strongest Recommendations from the leading
scientists and medical men in the country, and Is
the only standard medicinal Whiskey known.
