Herbert Spencer, who lives quietly in
Regents Park among his books and with
the society Of few old friends, is described
by the Paris Register as "a singularly mod
est man, with gentle voice and almost
feminine grace. He dimes away from home
often, haunts the Athen@um club and oc-
casionalIy visits place of amusement.
Comic opera is his delight. He finds in it
an Offset to his lucubrations upon the data
Of ethics. Life is very pleasant to him.
Fancy man about five feet nine inches
tall, wearing gray trousers, a black frock
coat. a low.cut white waistcoat, highly
polished shoes with cream colored over
CATERS, an old-lashiOned stand.up collar
and q black cravat-eyes gray and soft,
mouth firm, cheeks pinky white, bushy
iron gray whiskers encircling the neck
and there you have Herbert Spencer. the
English philosopher. No matter how fine
the day, he carries an umbrella. Mr..
Spencer tells with genuine amusement of a
letter he received not long ago from wild
West American publisher, asking how
much he would take for the exclusive right
to publish his poem Fairie Queen in the
states"

LOVE ON THE STAGE,
1t Is BY No Means SO Pleasant as
1t Looks,

1t Is BY No Means So Pleasant as
1t Looks,
"When a scene calls for love MAX
ing" she said, cit is always the man
who is the interesting figure. The
leading lady turns her face to the
audience and looks entranced and
joyous and all that, and works up to
"Take me, am am yours and then
he takes her, and all the girls in the
front say, ooh, isn't that lovelyp But
it isn't so delightful for us. There is
as much art in being taken as there is
in taking; just the same chance there
is of knocking noses over a kiss, and
you are never sure which way these
imprisoned, just-too-elegant stage
lovers are coming at you. 1t may be
eXhilarating to the matinee girl to
witness whirlwind rush acr ross the
stage and a realm earnest, don t-you
you-know, embrace. But he is very
likely to step on your toe, and that
hurts, besides spelling your slippers.
"While the lovely leading man is
supposed to be rapturously kissing
you, he is very likely huskily inform
ing you that his suspender has given
way, and that he has to cut the scene
or, may be, he is roaring a whisper in
your ear to the effect that if you wear
corsage bouquet in that act again
he'll leave the company. 1t is hard
on a man to have to embrace a girl
when he knows hatpin is going to
skewer his lungs together. If you
happen to be small the leading man S
studs catch in your bangs or scratch
your chin. If you are tall the powder
comes off your nose on his shoulder
| don't know which is the madden.
the woman who looses the powder off
her nose or the man who gets it on
his coat.
"Sometimes it is you who have to
make the rush. That is awful! You
are almost sure to catch your foot in
the rut1ling of your dress and precipi-
tate yourself into q mans diaphragm
so he can't speak word. A leading
man hates that. I remember seeing q
woman play Lydia Languish once
with very celebrated stage lover
You know the rush Lydia makes into
Captain Absolute's arms in the third
act? This Captain Absolute sat back
into a Chinese urn used as piece Of
stage furniture, and they had to ring
down the curtain. Cicily Homespun
in Heirat-Law' runs into her lover s
arm that same way.
1t upsets one so to have the lead
ing man tell you just where to land.
You are sure to land somewhere else
on him, and he does not like it. Your
nice, calm, slow, Indifferent lovers,
that girls from the orchestra find SO
fascinating, are dreadfully hard to
play with. They have way ofbuild-
ing you around in a matter of-fact
style that makes you feel as if you
were being sort Of trundled; besides,
you feel so awkward. You would
never let man make love to you
that way off the stage, but OF course
if the pleading man makes love best that
way that is the way he has got to do
it, and it makes no difference about
you. Your nice, methodical actor,
who puts some life and spirit in his
work, but who, for all that, rehearses
what he is going to do and then does
what he rehearses, is the lover the
easiest to play with, whether or no he
looks the best from the front. "

clustered,

Every man to his trade! Many an
old soldier, who has faced the lannon's
mouth without fiinching, would find
himself fairly frightened out of his
wits" If he were called upon to face an
audience.
A Northern general, famous as a
tighter, was at O. regimental reunion
sometime ago, says the New York Re-
corder, and was expected to propose
a toast to the regiment. He made a
rambling but highly eulogistic speech,
and concluded by saying:
Here's to the gallant One Hundred
and Twenty sixth New York, the last
to reach the field, and the first to
leave it,"
He sat down amid shouts OF
laughter, and then, seeing that he
had made some mistake, he under
took to rectify it.
Gentlemen" he said, "you must
forgive my slip of the tongue. The
toast l wished to propose was:
Here's to the gallant One Hundred
and Twenty-sixth New York equal to
none"
There was another burst oflaughter,
and the general rose for the third time,
but his words were lost in the general
merrlment, and the toast was honored
as he had already proposed it.

"Well, some of dem got killed and

THURSDAY, JUNE, 80.
SENATE.

Proceedings today were diversified by q
somewhat acrimonious debate over the
unanimous agreement entered into to take
a vote on the silver bill. 1t was claimed
that Democratic senators opposed to free
coinage were absent. Mr.. Mcpherson, Of
New Jersey, a tempted to break through
the agreement but was held to it by Mr.
Morgan and ether silver advocates Mr.
Dolph, of Oregon, moved to re-commit the
bill to the committee on finance and the
question will probably come up in that
shape tomorrow. The different senate
committees of conference reported almost
hopeless di>ag1eemenvs with house con-
ferees upon leading features of the great
appropriation bills. Mr.. Allison. chairman
of the committee on appropriations, said
none of the bills had yet gone to the presi-
dent and he asked the senate to concur in
a house resolution extending existing ap-
preparations Is days. This was done.
A bill amending the Chinese exclusion
act introduced by Senator Dolph requires
a Chnaman appearing before court I'M
der arrest for not having certificate to
show by witness other than one ofhis own
cOuntrymen that his failure to have it was
unavoidable, or else suffer the penalties Of
the law.

Dogs and Cats In King HowePs

IlnSSs
The worth of dogs is variously es-
timated; in the tenth century the
Kings bloodhound being valued at l sd.
when born, and 81 when fully trained;
while "a herd dog is worth the best
OK, n and whoever may
possess q cur, though it be the King,
it's value is 4d." Cats, however, are
priced without distinction, there being
probably but one breed. Nor is any
extra value set upon those favored
cats, which by reason Of their royal
ownership, enjoyed the daily privilege,
accorded them proYerbially, of look
ing at King. No matter to what fam
lily or place it may belong, "the worth
of kitten from the night it is kittened
until it shall open it's eyes, Is q legal
penny, and from that time until it
shall kill mice, two legal pence" four
pence being the full value of O. cat, as
OF sheep, or of a goat. The qualities
expected of her are particularly cata-
logued, and the list of them runs thus:
"To see, to hear, to kill mice, to have
her claws entire, to rear and not to de-
YOUR her kittens, and il she be bought
and be deficient in any one of those
teithf, let one third her worth be re.
