the d;anlay made by the cabmen. In
sn;to II the abuse which is showered
upon The metropolitan cabby, he has,
when seen at his best, good deal OF
pride ia his profession, and some OF the
i,very-stables by (which he is employed
can boast OF turnouts which million
aires would not DO ashamed to ncknowl-
edge as their own. These fancy livery
stable turnouts are growing more nu-
merous every year, and the reason for
il is not difficult OF discovery. Wealthy
families are finding it much less trouble

elusive use of fine team. The driver
REPORTS to them every morning Just
az though he were directly IN the
family's employ. and if the carriage is
not wanted for the day the presumption
is that il is used for other pnr-
poses. The most valuable horses and
the handsomest carriages ID New York
are thus hired, and this is one OF the
reasons why next month the cabby Will
make a showing that will surprise most
of the spectators. Then the New
York and Brooklyn police will DO on
hand to battle for supremacy, and some
of the horses they will take into the
Garden will, for sagacity, perfection of
training, and beauty, match anything

last competition mounted member OF

carried off first honors, but an officer
from the City Of Churches was close
second, and the claim is that If the exhi-
bition had been held in Brooklyn he
would have taken the highest prize.

tract Of land. to be used as a cemetery for
burying the dead from the Soldiers Home at

renders new cemetery imperative; Sieve
raj tracts of land have been offered for the
purpose, among the most suitable being
one owned by Mr.. A. j. Ford, OF Rich
mond, containing about eight acres, which
he values ct -, 600 an acre.

Sells Brothers and Barrett's Ttco shotCs
United.

Sells Brothers and Barretts Ttc0 Shotcs
United.
A striking example of the result of
pluck, energy and honorable dealing is
the success of Sells Brothers. Eighteen
years ago they embarked in the hazard
GUS, and at that time supposed to be
illegitimate, business of running a cir
Gus, but, by following straightforward
course and applying such business rules
as is done in mercantile pursuits, they
have overcome the many difficulties that
beset them, and from poverty to opulence
their pathway has been always credit
able. No broken promises, no unful-
filled pledges. no 6isappointments for
the people mark q place in the line Of
their march. This year, more than any
former one, will be memorable because
of the multiplied attractions that have
been added. A daily expense of $500
eighteen years ago has been increased
year by year, until now it averages over
$4,000 daily, and yet they do not halt.
Barrett's big show, in which they were
formerly silent partners, has been added
entire, making, for the first time in the
history of shows, a Legitimate and bona
fide consolidation of two big, fully
equipped shows united into one vast or
ganization, yet each distinctive feature
retained. These two shows will spread
a huge cloud of canvas in this city on
Tuesday, October 81, and exhibit CON-
jointly for one price of admission.

his horse he bent low in the saddle and
as he swept by kicked 1t up. He was
cheered to the echo as he turned his pony
aud, riding up to the box, returned the
handkerchief to its fair owner. The oo-
cupants of the box proved to be Sir
Thomas Dodd of West Derby, near Liver
pool, and his eighteen-year-o old daugh-
ter, Helen.
Between the young people it was
case of love at first sight. An introduce
ton was brought about in some way and
Mr.. Campbell, instead of riding at per-
formanoes of the show, devoted himself
to social enioyments. 1t was but short
time before the young couple were en-
gagged, but when the parents of both
heard of it objections were raised
that threatened to prevent any
union. 1t was finally decided that young
Campbell should return home, and if, in
the course of year or so, their love re-
NAMED unchanged, no further objec-
tions would be raised. Mr.. Campbell
returned to Chicago, where he has been
ever since. His betrothed decided that,
as he could not get away from business
at this season of the year, she would
come to America and get married. Her
fathers advanced age prevented his &C.
companying her, SO she came under the
escort of Capt. John R. Denar, superin-
tendent of the Gulop line steamship COM
pany.
She was met on the pier at New York
by her lover, who escorted her to apart
ments and that evening the wedding GER
emory was performed in the presence of
numerous friends and relatives of the
groom.
