A very good and true story is reported with
Professor Marsh in the title role. While
walking on Prospect street near his home not
long ago he remarked horse attached to a
dilapidate1 ash wagon, driven by all aged
negro, which animal had on its leg queer
bone formation. The professor stopped the
team, made cursory examination Of the
protuberance, and concluded the interview
by saying in n half joking way that when the
horse died he would like that leg for scientific
examination, and would give S. for the same
deliverd to his house. A couple Of hours later,
on his return home, he found u long, awkward
bundle at his front door on the veranda, and
it required no careful examination to reveal
the leg Of horse. "You see, sah,n the
owner Of the ash wagon remarked, with
peculiar look in his eye, "de old horse he

slightly Romanesque. Another charm be-
longing to her is rich mezzo-soprano voice.
Both as Miss Laura Davidson and since her
marriage she has been one of the most beau
ttful and popular society women in central
Kentucky.
Her face it was the fairest
That e'er the sun shone on.
One might venture to say all this, and more
if possible, OF Miss Lily Robinson and yet
scarcely be voted hyperbolical, since few love-
lier faces could be fancied than her own. She
is the granddaughter Of Governor Robinson,
ono Of the old granite pillars of the. common
wealth, and daughter of Gen. James F.
Robinson. Her father was brigadier general
in the late war, and has always been pro,ni-
nently identified with the history OF the state
He is tho most conspicuous turfman in Ken
lucky, being president OF the Kentucky asso-
citation. He was also predecessor OF the late
William Cassius Gosdoe as internal revenue
collector of the Seventh district His daugh-
ter is rich 'brunea beauty-a ''nut brown
maid" with delcately chiseled features and
dusky hair, that clusters about her brow. and
temples and the nape of the shapely neck in
tenderest lovelocks. In her manner Turks a
sort of coquettish defiance, which adds
piquancy to her riante loveliness and makes
her as witching maid as was ever mans un-
doing.
A superb type of womanhood is Mrs. Ge-
neyieve Morgan Mulligau. One hesitates
whore to fix his admiration In her case, his
allegiance compelled equally by her beauty,
her intellectually aud that subtle charm Of
manner that subjugates even apart from the
other attributes. She is poet, an artist,
philosopher, and yet womanly past, question,
with tender, fascinating woinanliness.
Throughout the state and In metropolitan
society everywhere Mrs. Mulligan has queen
cd 1t royalty, and yet is nowhere more ire
sistible than when In poem Of a tea gown
she dspenses tea la Russo In her genuine
Samovar to the friends who love to flock
about her In her picturesque horne near Lex
ington. There Is something almost infantile
In the rounded fairness Of her face and the
soft abandonment Of ripply hair that. makes
her infinitely lovable. She is the wife Of
Judge James H. Mulligau, prominent law
yer and statesman, and near relative Of
John Morgan, the noted Kentucky cavalry
leader.
