Ninth avenue, has a master with resource
full mind. The fact that the aforesaid mas
ter, when not too busy arranging invest
ments for his surplus cash, does a little
newspaper work, perhaps accounts for the
resourceful mind. Late last Friday fore
noon this gentleman opened the front door
of his residence prepared for his customary
saunter to the elevated station. A snow
drift from two to three feet deep completely
covered his doorstep. His wife al his elbow
suggested that he 20 downstairs and get the
snow-shovel, but he treated this suggestion
as playful jest.
After contemplating TIE snowbank few
seconds, he whistled for his dog. An ami
mated bundle of hair came tumblng into
the hallway. "OOhlahp' spoke the master,
do you want TO go for walk?" With a
quick bark of delight the little dog plunged
out OF the door and rolled down the steps 70
the sidewalk. Then, after a good deal of
kicking and rolling about, the animal re-
gained his feet, and, obeying his masters
call, scrambled up the steps aud back into
the house. Again he was sent out and
called back with the same snow-scattering
result, and, as he seemed to enjoy it, the act
was repeated for even third time.
Thus was an open path down the steps

Its Capital Reduced.

Yesterday special meeting of the stock
holders Of the Anglo-Nevada Assurance
Company was held for the purpose of tax
ing action looking to the winding up of the
company's affairs. After very brief dis
cussiOn of the matt rs involved it was de-
cided that as considerable of the company's
assets are in the shape of mortgages and
some legal business in which the company
IS interested is still unsettled, the disineor
poration at the present time is imprac-
tlcable. 1t was thereupon resolved to reduce
the capital stock to $500. 600, and accord
ingly as the assets become available they

ing an Interesting One.

The Prince OF Wales Will BE Called Upon
to Testify-H His Testimony VIII Have q
Great Bearing On the Result-It Is
Rumored that the Defence VIII Plead
Justification.
LONDON, June 1.-Beginning with the
baccarat scandal trial to-day, the Brit
ish public will be RECALLED with a series of
sensations, including eight cases of
breach of promise of marriage, and new
trial of the notorious Wolpole- Wiedeman
case, which has thrown such lurid light
upon the state Of English society in the
East.
So great is the interest taken in the Sir
W. Gordon Cumming trial by the public
that there have been over $4,000 applica-
tions for seats, and the court has accomo-
dation for only $50 in that portion re-
served for the public.
In order to meet this unparalleled de-
mand, extra seats have been placed in
the body of the court and a row upon the
bench itself, but these latter are reserved
for the most distinguished applicants.
In order, too, to prevent any possible con.
fusion, Lord Coleridge himself has signed
every ticket for admission.
The scene, therefore, when the court
assembled this morning was an interest
ing one, not only by reason of the fact OF
the Importance and gravity of the case,
or the circumstance that the Prince OF
Wales will be called as one Of the chief
witnesses, but also because of the position
and social consequence of the audience
which is in attendance to watch the pro.
ceedings. ~
The great event of the day will natur
ally be the calling of the Prince of Wales
and it is expected that His Royal High.
ness will follow Sir William in the wit
| ness box. Much will depend on the
Princes evidence, so that apart from the
consideration of his rank, his testimony
will have great bearing on the case.
Nothing is definitely known as to the
| nature of the defense to be brought for
ward, but it is rumored in legal circle!
that justification will be pleaded.

A BIG DINNER.
Banquet Given by an italian Magnate in
the Sixteenth Century.


the Sixteenth Century.
From the amusing article on "Renais-
sance Cookery" contributed by Sir
Austen Layard to Murray's Magazine
we quote the following account of
marriage banquet given in 1889: A
dinner was given in November, 1859, by
Marcantonia Colonna, grand constable
of Naples, ON his marriage with Prin-
cess Orsini Peretti, niece of Plus ",
at which several cardinals were present.
On the plates were figures of boys hold
ing shields on which were the arms of
the guests-so that they could find their
places without causing confusion-and
cupids and angels holding labels with
amorous notices and nosegays. The
first course of the 'credenza" was of
twenty-one dishes, including salads of
radishes, capers and kids feet; heads of
wild bears boiled in wine, with their
shouts silvered and artificial fire issuing
from them, garnished with herbs and
flowers; sailed buffalo tongues boiled
in wine; cock pheasants, on their feet
as If alive, and holding perfumes in
their beaks, and roast peacocks served
with a sauce made of pomegranates
and lemons, their bealzs and feet gilt
and their beautiful necks and tails dis
played. In the first course of hot meats
We're the most delicate birds-ortolans,
pheasants, woodcocks, larks and
''tordi" (feldfares); in the second, of
twenty dishes, calves heads with
stuffing, roasted on the spit; bologna
sausages, capons stuffed with chestnuts,
roast red-legged cartridges in paper
garnished with sour oranges, roast gray
partridges stuffed in the Spanish fashion
and sprinklad with rose water, and a
sweet dish called 'tbocche di dane,
Qadies' mouths), made by the nuns.
The third course was of eighteen
dishes, among which were pheasants
stuffed with truf1es, olives and fresh
fennel garnished with sour oranges
and fennel, roast sucking pigs, pea
cocks larded with lampreys and stuffed
with truff1es, Indian pigeons, large
truffies surmounted by imperial crowns
i tender crabs, eaten with salt and vine
i gar, with ducal coronet upon each
and Holsters crowned with the papa
| tiara. The second course of the ''cre
denza'' consisted of twelve dishes
among which were entire truffies served
| in napkins and sweet fennel and
thistles served with butter in silvel
plates and garnished with sour oranges
and ginger. After the dinner wer.
handed round sweetmeats from differ
emit parts of Italy, such as preserved
fruits from Genoa, which is still re
nowned for them; quince-cheese o
Naples, 'svaisetti' from Bologna, ''per
sicata" (peach cheese), also from Genoa

view of the drive, my new maid in q
bright blue calico gown, minus sleeves,

the shoulder only by two strips of baby
ribbon. On her head she had a jaunty
little shirred hat of the same material.
Gin the explosion which followed she
said that she had been taught to be neat
and tasty and to make herself as attrac-
tive as possible, and, as she was of the
higher class of servants, she had read
the current magazines and had seen
pictures of pisturesqe French peasants
and charming italian women going about
their tasks draped in some kind of loose
stuff. Americanizing these ideas she had
evolved for an afternoon dress-up costume
the rig which she had on and which had
attracted so much attention on my dining
room veranda.
"And so it goes. My maids are either
too dressy or not dressy enough. Why
will not some genius devise costume
which shall be acceptable in the sight of
ladies and ladies' maids, and one which
shall be- always neat ands always suit
able?"

forms one of the sansages and her neck is
the link which connects her to the second
installment of the Bologna represented
by the waist. Here she is tied tightly
and again bulges out at the hips to be
drawn in around the feet. Thus, you
see, she is in three links.

An Legitimate Child Now Brought Into

DENVER, Col, June 1.-Developments
in the Barnaby case continue to interest
the public, but are at present mostly
confined to the experiences of witnesses.
A story has come to Denver that might
show up motives in startling manner.
For some time the detectives in the
East have been working steadily on a
clew and attempting to find certain
mysterious individual.
This person is said to have been the
great and primal cause for the disruption
in the Barnaby family, which eventually
led to Mr.. Barnaby cutting off his widow
with s., 500 year. g.
The individual who could account for
so many things has not, so far as is at
present known, even by word or action,
placed himself or herself in in position
to cause fear or trouble.
This person, who is likely to become
one of the most important personages in
the case, is said to be an illegitimate
child of the late Mrs. Josephine B. Bar.

Grin Communicated After Death.

LONDON, June Sir Morrell Macken-
zie has made some startling statements
with regard to influenza. Sir Morrel be-
lieves the disease can be communicated
by dead bodies. In support of this opin-
ion, he quotes case from the American
newspapers, in which a gentleman of
that nationality, having died with in
fuenza in Paris, his body was en-
balmed and sent to Philadelphia, where
it was exposed to the view of the family,
all of whom were Immediately attacked
by the disease. Sir Morre1l does not
doubt that the influenza was introduced
into the House of Commons by the wit
nesses from Sheffield, where the disease
was at its worst, who gave their evidence
in one of the committee rooms.
