A Sensational Star.

Since Margaret Mather had her legal
fight with J. NJ Hill, the man who dis
covered" her and managed her so success
fully during the first years of her stage
career, she has been seldom heard from.
But now her name is beginning to figure
prominently in the newspapers again be-
cause of production in New York City of

Paris, Joan of Arc" Miss Mather's life
has been remarkable one. In 1872 sbs

that one can scarce call uncomely, and YET
they have no delicacy of modelling; they
are not expressive, or rather they do not
express refinement. Such arms have large
hands and large elbows, there is more
force than frmness in the articulation.
Canny women cover such joints with
either sleeves or gloves, but once you
have seen them you are apt to find
that the neck, too, is not perfectly finished,
lacks certain ciearness in moulding.

Godfrey and kilrain Matched.

An interesting pugilistic event will be
the meeting of Jake Kilrain and George
Godfrey before the California Athletic
club early in 1891 for purse of $1,000,
$500 of which goes to the loser The con-
test will come off at San Francisco, and it
is said the winner will challenge John L..
Sullivan, although it would appear that
Kilrain at least had had all the fighting he
desires at the big fellows hands.

ago he was investigated as one of the Off
GERS at the battle of Sand Creek, whe1 it
was charged that the United States troops
Were not quite as gentle to the Indians as
they might have been. l don't know how
the investigation turned out but l think
! that Colonel Shoup came out of it with
| honor. Now a quarter of century later,
he comes back to Washington to be SEN
ator himself and if there are any investi-
cations of the so-called massacres of the
Sioux, he will probably have hand in
them. He was noted government scout
during the late Civil war and he commanded
troops throughout different parts of the
west. He started west when he was only
| sixteen years old with his father who was
a well TODD Pennsylvania and stopped first
| in Illinois where his father engaged in
stock raising. He left here at the age Of
eighteen, and crossed the plains in an emil
grant train of canvas-covered wagons and
engaged in mining in Colorado somewhere
near Pixies Peak. He kept store at the
same time and the store paid enough to
| keep the mines going. He mined for some
time and then moved northward and finally
settled in Boise city. He has been engaged
in mining, stock raising and mercantile
business for years and he is now said to be

He Clappsd His Man ON the Back


1t was not kind thing to do, but he
was a young newspaper reporter and was,
whether justly or unjustly, regarded as
@fresh." His city editor sent him up to
meeting, and he started out little too
eagerly, for he got the address wrong.
He was not so familiar with New York
as reporters generally are, and by the
time he got the address Strengthened out
and found the correct one the meeting
was over and he looked only upon closed
doors.
On the elevated train he met three
other reporters going down to their
offices, and he told them his dilemma.
@Oh, it's lucky you got on this train,
said one brother newsgatherer. ~The
very man you want to see is on this
train. There he sits down there in the

"You want to be diplomatic, put in
the third conspirator. You've got to let
him see that you know him. You want
to come up behind him, clap him on the
5ack-a good, rousing whack, you know
and say, Hello, Jenkins, old boy, how
did the little shindy come off to-nightY
Then he'll think he knows you and will
tell you the whole story.
@Be sure you crack him on the back,
was repeated.
"Oh, trust me, said the young re-
porter with a confident smile. Down
the aisle he went, and reaching the
president" he gave him terrific thump
on the back. For one second there was
an awful calm. Then jenkins. old
boy, !" raised his umbrella and started for
the offender. It was chase for the
door, the young man yelling out his
apologies, the old man frantically brand
ishing his umbrella and making violent
whacks at the head of his assailant. The
younger man reached the door in ad-
vance, however, and darting through it
slammed it in the old mans face. As
the wrathful old gentleman was return

COURT BEDMAKERS.

An amusing record of ancient do
mestic service is that concerning the
customs of the court bedmakers in
the time of Henry VII. Only men
were employed, and with them it
was apparently "a fine art of study"
A merry time, too, they must have
had, with no hurry to speak of, if
reliance may be placed upon accounts
handed down from 1.-The king at
arms" of the period.
First, by four sturdy young men,
the curtains must be drawn, and a
gentleman usher must hold them
fast; the next touch of ceremony de-
manded that two squires should
guard the beds head. and two yeo-
men of the crown must likewise
watch at the beds foot, after which,
all the stuff thereto appertaining
should be laid safely and evenly on
a carpet at the foot of the bed, and
palliasse were remayde, and yeo-
man should leap up and down there
on to array the litter, and lay on
the canvass, and pat into smooth
ness the feather bed.
The under blanket, by way OF emil
nence termed the fustian, was then
cast on without WRINKLES, and the
sheet samewise, the latter to be we'll
tucked in, to be followed by a second
sheet, blankets, and final covering
of martens fur and ermine.
The pillows, beaten by a yeoman,
were tossed to the squires to place
them as pleaseth the kings grace;
and lastly, a sheet of Rennes linen
was passed under the pillows. y

THE BABY KING.

The anecdotes current about little
Don Alfonso are simply innumerable,
and appealing as they do to every
mothers heart, go far toward in
creasing the popularity of the throne
throughout Spain.
He is exceedingly frank and unre-
strained in the expression of his
opinions, especially when they con-
Germ the personal appearance of his
lieges; and although extremely dis
concerning to the parties Immediate
ly concerned, they constitute source
of delight to everybody else. 1t was
only with the greatest difficulty that
his mother was able to impress upon
him the necessity of abstaining from
making remarks of this character in
an audible tone of voice at church.
Her adm onishments, however, bore
unexpected fruit. The King mani
testify took it for granted that the
instructions to remain quiet and
silent during divine service applied
to others as we'll as to himself; for
shortly afterward, when the royal
family and the court attended mass
in state at the Attocha church, little
Don Alfonso suddenly interrupted
the preacher in the midst of one of
his most imprisoned and eloquent
perorations by commanding him, in
a shrill and piping tone of voice, to
be still, and not to make "such a
noise in church II Harper's Weekly.

WHERE FLOWERS LOOK BEST.

There is no place where flowers
show to such advantage as in the
home. writes the New York florist,
Klunder, in the Ladies Home Jour
nal The flowers and plants should
as to produce the same effect. Never
overcrowd in floral decorations.
This is very important. The most
popular way of decora ting the home
consists in placing beautiful foliage
plants in different shades of green, in
corners, on small stands and etageres.
Flowers are used with long stems
and their own foliage, put in cases.
A very neat thing is a small num-
Der of miniature vases and cut glass
bowls, placed on little tables and
filled with different colored carna
tons, lilies of the valley. mignonette,
or other seasonable flowers Each
specimen should be by itself. This
produces an exceedingly pretty effect.
The fre-places should be we'll filled
with potted plants, such as ferns and
Variegated foliage plants. Over pic
lures and doors neat effect is OBJ
tanned by draping long trailing ferns
and passion vines in bloom.
To keep flowers fresh as long as
possible, be sure to cut little off the
stem each day. A hard crust forms
on the end of the stem which pre-
vents the water from ascending, and
this should be cut away each day.
A little charcoal in the water in which
the flowers stand will sweeten them
and keep them fresh longer.

What it says 1 don't know, but it sings
loud song.
But green leaves, and blossoms, and snuny

And singing and 1oving,-an come back to-
gether.
But the lark is so briInfu1 of gladness and

The green fields below him, the blue sky

That he sings, and he sings, and forever sings
