She Knew Something About Horses.


One of the few bright afternoons re-
Gently enjoyed by New Workers served
to bring out a brilliant array of prome-
naders and equipages in Fifth avenue.
The drive was crowded with carriages,
when one of a team of horses attached
to a rattling, banging, numbering Fifth
avenue stage slipped and fell. AS is
usual in such common occurrences. the
falling animal served to entangle him
self in his harness in such a way that
every time he struggled to axise he was
tripped and made to fall again. The
commotion caused a large group of
promenaders to gather at the spot, and
there was the usual amount of 'guying"
of the driver by the bystanders. The
driver was stupid fellow, and per-
sisted in trying to make the fallen ami
NAL rise to his feet.
Among the interested group of watch
ers were two handsomely dressed women.
One of them became impatient and irri-
tated at the stupidity of the driver.
"Clara, hold my muff," she said, as she
handed the dainty bit of fur to her COM
panion. Stepping from the curb, she
quickly loosened the catch on the chain
section of the traces of the standing
horse, and then unfastened the hame
chains in front, leaving one horse Free
This sufficiently cleared the eptangle-
ment to enable the fallen horse to get
up, and the two women went on their
way, the one who had been so prompt
saying: "It makes me angry to see men
IN charge of horses so fearfully stupid.
1t is always easier to release the standing
horse than to untangle the harness of
the fallen one, and when the other is led
away the one down can rise easily. Men
are stupid, anyway. New York Trib-

Daily Life of the Pope.

Because of the infrmities of old age
Pope Leo XIII has at last been compelled
to relax his Spartan mode of living. He
rises in the morning at o'clock instead
of at 4, as formerly, takes a two hours
nap in the afternoon, and goes to bed
soon after g. His midday dinner in
cludes soup, fish, meat or poultry and
fruit, washed down with old claret-a
luxurious meal in contrast to the frugal
fare hitherto cousumed-and at supper
he eats eggs and meat, with little
champagne and some hqueur. He works
as hard as his health will allow, and will
not give up his frequent audiences, not-
withstanding all the doctors entreaties.

ally known that the groom was in i'll
health, but the excitementof the prepar-
ations seemed to ward off any serious
attack. After the marriage, however,
the count was stricken with typhoid
fever, and died suddenly after an illness

Count Lewenhaupt was of noble
Swedish family. He was about thirty
years of age, and came to the United
States with letter of introduction to
ex-Secretary Bayard in 1889. He was
admitted to the Bayard mansion, and
his engagement to Miss Ellen Bayard
soon followed. He was of a very genial
nature, and was not only popular in
diplomatic circles at Washington, but a
general favorite everywhere. He was
naval architect at the shipyard of Har-
Ian g. Hollingsworth.
During recent years a series of be-
reavements have befallen ex-Secretary
Bayard- In short period he lost his
first wife, his eldest daughter Katherine

women Delegates Not wanted.

The Methodist conference at Yonkers
has decided by very emphatic vote of
1S0 to go that women should not be ad-
mitted as delegates to the general con-
ference. The report of the debate does
not show that the question was discussed
or decided upon its merits. When it is
said that it does not follow because
woman can sing bass that she ought to
sing bass, it would seem to be a sufficient
reply to suggest that if bass were
needed to complete quartet it would be
cause it was the voice of woman.
The decisive consideration in the de-
bate seems to have been that there was
a divine reason for the difference of
sexes, and that participation in confer
ence was not included in the sphere of
women. But how the male sex, as such,
qualified those who belong to it as wise
counselors was not stated in any speech
nor illustrated in the argument There
is always better way of determining
whether wood will float and stone sink
than any argument based upon theory.
The better way is experiment. The
counsel of women in schools is proved to
be of very great value The opinion of
man who thinks that the counsel was
not meant to be taken is not an argu-
ment against the fact.-Harper's Weekly.

Burning of the Asylum,

On Friday night of last week the
West wing of the Central Tennessee
Asylum for the insane. located seven
miles from Nashville, ON the
Murfreesboro pike, was destroyed
by fire, and ten of the inmates
of the institution persisted in the
flames. The names of the unfortu-
nate victims are as follows: Blue
Preston, Cannon; j. Brooks, DR..
Frank HolOwell, and A. r. Goodlet,
Davidson county; John Nance,
Smith county; j. w. Settle, and
John PoindeXter, Wilson county
John S. Johnson Rutherford county;
John Kelly, Wayne county; w. II.
Beasley, Hickman county.
The fire is supposed to have been
started by Lee Afford, lunatic con-
fined in the building, and this suppo-
sition is substantiated by evidence
given to the cOroner's jury.
There was a delay of two hours in
getting a fire engine started out of
Nashville to the fire, and it is some
what remarkable that the entire
building was not destroyed. This
was only averted by cool manage
ment and heroic efforts of the officers,
guards, and attaches of the institu-
ton.
Several of the inmates escaped in
the confusion consequent upon their
hasty removal, but we believe all
have been recaptured.
The portion of the building which
was burned was occupied exclusively
by male inmates, and when the fire
was discovered it was impossible to
reach and rescue those who persisted.
The loss on the building was covered
by insurance, and the work Of re-
building will be pushed as rapidly as
possible.
One hundred of the male inmates
of the institution were safely trans
ferred to the West Tennessee Asy-
lum at Bolivar, by special train, on
Tuesday.
