Oscar Wilde's Companion.

As the story goes, it was Whistler the
artist who induced Oscar Wilde to visit
the United States in the interests of es-
theticism. Wilde was one of Whistler's
most doting satellites, and Whistler
recognized in the ambitious and auda-
cious young man just such missionary
as would do good work for the new
school in this wild and woolly republic
of ours. 1t is said that Whistler planned
every detail of the famous tour, even
to the amusing item of that long hair
with which Oscar won half the battle
among us.
Wilde worshiped Whistler, hanging
upon his utterances as though he We're
a veritable god Whistler understood
his pupil thoroughly, reading his
thoughts as though his mind were an
open book None knew better than he
Oscars faculty for absorbing the use
full. Oscars powers of assimilation
were always amazing, and London folk
used to say that Oscars bon mots were
Whistlers commonplace warmed over.
On one occasion Whistler told a very
funny story, and after the applause had
ceased Wilde drawled out somewhat
peevishly, "Egad, Whistler, wish I'd
said that" Thereupon Whistler re-
torted amiably and soothingly, "Ah,
never mind, Oscar, but have patience,
for you will say it; indeed you will. y

I was a resident of Detroit when the
late General Grant was a captain of in
fantry and stationed at Fort Wayne,
the military post near that city. Grant
at that time owned pacing pony that
was as fast as a ghost. One day he in
vited Bishop McClosky to take a
ride behind the PAGER The bishop
weighed $50 pounds and was very dig
nitied. Grants course lay up Jefferson
avenue to Crosse Point, then, as now,
a favorite drive Grant started the
PAGER up long before he got beyond the
city limits, and was soon fairly flying
along.
well remember seeing the bishop
holding on to the seat of the buggy
with one hand and on to his hat with
the other, while Grant was holding on
to the pony to steady him and not say
ing word. When the ride was ended
the bishop expressed his thanks to
Grant for the courtesy shown him, but
Grant could never get him into his
buggy again. Poor old McCloskyl 1t
is sad to contemplate that he was COM

The late Samuel j. Tilden was
noted as a lawyer; all the ptricacies
aud technicalities of the law were
familiar to him. His life had been
devoted to its study and practice,
and large fees were paid to him for
his counsel and services. Yet, the
other day, the New York Court of
Appeals set aside bis own last will
and testament, carefully drawn by
himself, aud deprived New York city
OF great public library he iIteadGd
to found and endow with his millions
after providing as he saw fiji for his
relatives. The reason assigned for
declaring the will invalid was the al
legged uncertainty of his intention,
and the fact that too great discretion
was given to the executors. Yet it
was perfectly clear that he meant to
do two things: first, to provide for
his heirs, and secondly, to devote a
great share of his property to public
uses. The decision OF the judges

Family History.

Family history is history dramatized
1t has been said that the obscurest in
dividual life if truthfully written, would
surpass any romance, and this is true
of the obscurest family's life All fam
lilies are equally ancient. On earth in.
dividual immortality is represented in
the undying life of every family; it re-
quires the life of family to round ont
the events individuals find so out Of
joint The cloud that overwhelmed
the wayfarer of one generation for his
successor floats into light. The expert
ences of foregone ages are stored in
every human being. If the history OF
a particular family is searched it is be
cause it is searchable, not because it is
great. Great and small are terms Of
ignorance in regard of historic causa-
ton. In this chain the little link may
be the most important To tell the
story of one family is to tell what is es-
sential in the story of all M d. Con
way in ETarper's.
