A. Curious New York Driving Club.

The T-Cart club is one of the least known
and most fashionable driving clubs in New
York, It was organized twelve years ago
under rather curious constitution. Only
bachelors were eligible for membership.
AS soon as member married his resigna-
ton was to be accepted. The number Of
members was limited to twelve. The Off
Ger of the club was president, whose du-
ties consisted in leading the club on its
drives, selecting the destination, and two
or three other similarly laborious tasks.
Among the clubs founders were George
II. Warren, w. Starr Miller and Frank
Lawrence. The first president was Mr.
Lawrence.
Every spring since the foundation of the
club it has taken two or three drives to Je-
rome park. On these occasions the carts
and horses were decorated with the clubs
colors-red and white. The whips were
tied with red and yellow ribbons, and the
eleven young women and the chaperon
who accompanied the members carried bou
quets of red and yellow flowers. Lunch
con was always eaten at jerome park. All
the lay members must have approved T.
carts on these drives. The president, how
ever, may drive tandem.
The T-Cart club has had three different
presidents since Mr.. Lawrence served his
one year term. Harry lie Grand Cannon,
who succeeded him, served one year; George
II. Warren, one year, and T. j. Oakley
Rhinelander, who was elected in 1882, has
served ever sin se.-New York Sun.

The little change pocket in the overcoat is an
exceedingly handy contrivance Of the tailor,
but it is an aperture TO be watched. The
mendicant who shambles alongside of q pedes-
trian in the evening can hold out one hand
for aims aud readily empty the change pocket
with the other if he is an adept in the bust
ness. The other day young man entered a
down town barber shop and as the brush boy
removed his overcoat he remembered that
there was 81. Is in silver in the change pocket.
However, he thought 1t would be safe and he
had his shave. When he put on his coat
again he felt for the money. 1t was gone.
He complained to the boss The brush boy
had gone out for lunch and the boss said he
was as honest as the day. He thought the
customer had been mistaken. Maybe he was,
but he will take care that it does not occur
again.
At one OF the leading clubs the other night
guest checked his coat and went up TO din
ner, When he started away he felt IN the
overcoat change pocket for the quarter be

but the said boy had saved him the trouble
by appropriating the money while the man
was at dinner He had also nipped half of
the mans cigarettes. The overcoat change
pocket is handy when the owner wears the
coat, but, as stated before. it is an aperture
to be watched closely. Chicago Herald.

Petroleum for Corns.

"You are troubled with corns, are youf'
said Pittsburger to one of his friends who
walked with peculiar limping gait.

is that they are no good without faith, and

siders his case hopeless. But can tell yor
OF cure that is simple and etfectual. Soak
the afflicted portion of your feet for con-
siderable time every night-the longer the
better-in crude petroleum; then saturste
a cloth with the same stuff, wrap it around
your toe, put your stocking on, and then

"A few nights OF this treatment will
cause the corn to disappear. first heard
of this remedy when living in the oil re-
gion, and Of course / laughed ct It. But d
little inquiry among the men who worked
about the tanks and wells convinced me
that they believed In IL. They said they
were never troubled with corns, and as
sured me that the frequent voting Of

He Forgot Eighteen Thousand Dollar.

About 9:15 o'clock on Tuesday morning
A. d. Westfeld, wealthy resident of New
York, was fervently congratulating him
self on the recovery Of $4,000, which came
very near startling and sorely tempting
some Palace hotel chambermaid. On GO
ing to bed late Monday night Westfeld
placed $4,000 in bills under the mattress
of his bed and when he arose Tuesday
morning shortly before the departure of
the overland train by the southern route
he forgot this money in the haste of his
preparations for leaving in company with
party of acquaintance with whom he ex-
pected to make his overland trip.
He had just crossed tho gangplank of the
ferryboat with his friends when he sudden
ly turned pale and exclaimed: my Godl /
forgot something" He rushed back, jump
ed into carriage and ordered the driver
TO hurry him TO thePalace. When he reach
ed the hotel he dashed up to his room. No
servant had yet entered It, and all was as
when he left. He quickly turned up the
mattress and there was his money right
where he had put it. His satisfaction quite
overbalanced his annoyance at missing his
train and friends and he did not object
bit at waiting for the evening train, which
he ook alone.-San Francisco Chronicle.
