Carrying tho Mail in Wyoming.

A thrilling story Of adventure and
peril comes from johnson county, Wy,
the seat of the late cattle war. During
the entire winter Contractor Stringe-
has been unable to carry the mail across
the Big Horn mountains from Buffalo to
Ten Sleep. In the belief that the sum-
mer season was sufficiently advanced to
allow the trip to be made, he started
from Buffalo on a strLng saddle horse
and with four mules packed with mail
pouches. Twenty-Five miles of hard
travelling landed Stringer at an emer-
gency cabin with his stock completely
played out Here he placed some mail
on a toboggan, and strapping ON pair
of snowshoes made another start for Ten
Sleep.
In about fifteen miles one of the snow
shoes was broken. The nearest haven
was Stringer's own ranch, twelve miles
distant. He was five days getting to it.
Most of the way he crawled on his hands
and knees. With hunger and exposure
he was all but dead. Resting three days
at his ranch, and making a new shoe,
Springer returned to the station for the
abandoned stock and mail, and in week
went through to Ten Sleep. He returned
to Buffalo. Wy. May 1.-Omaha Bee.

TINY GIRL DANCERS.

WELL PAID AND WELL TREATED.
The Parents Proud to Have Them in

PARIS, March Especial Correspond
ence. What sort of life do the little
creatures lead ? is the question that rises
IN every mind as multitude of tiny girls
in fantastic costumes are seen filing upon
the vast stages of the Theater de Chatelet,
of the Theater de la Porte st. Martin, or
Of the Theater de la Gate.
In front of the footlights and under the
white electric glare these mites of women,
who are scarcely 10 or II years old, already
frisk about in their little characters, or
dance mad farandoles that make the boxes
smile, the pit clap their hands and the
gamins in the gallery utter the widest of
their meaningless catcalls.
But before and after the play, what do
the little things do? Where do they come
from? Are they following the profession
of their parents, having been born and
brought up to it, or are they precocious
workers whose dancing supplies the needs
of frail old father or earns milk for lit
tie brother?
Many times have asked myself these
questions. Tired of being unable to an
swer them, 1 finally decided to ask the
divinities who preside over the destinies of
these young girls, and to ask the young
girls themselves, and have found out.
l learned that it is no more true that
these little dolls, these artists in embryo,
are the support of their families than that
they are the children of the fgurantes Tor
supernumeraries on the stage)

which is turned up in tiuted fashion. A
great crescent, made of pearl, is stuck
through the bow.
A soft brown China silk looks well this
way-gathered in soft at the belt, with a
silk band of silk few shades lighter 4
big puff of this lighter material, reaching
from the neck quarter way down to the
waist, and trimmed with a deep ruffle of
full lace. 4 fine gauze straw of brown
and cream intermingled looks pretty with
it, trimmed with an Alsatian bow in front
On top of the crown is graceful spray of

and vet their dresses are in many cases
trimmed with deep rutfles of black lace.
Materials for cloaks vary very little from
what we big folk wear. Even the cut is
very much the same except. perhaps, that
box plants in the back are used more.
The soft fawns and grays are the prevail
ing colors, and the capes, if capes there be,
are usually lined with soft silk. The two
coats in the illustration are for very young
children. and therefore, of course, are
quite distinctive in style. For voung BOYS
colors are worn considerably. and fur is
good trimming. For very young lads
white serge is very pretty and becoming
made with blouseS under their jackets
The blouses NAV be quite fancy, of dainty
China silk, teather-stitched, and even fine
lace is not out of place. The little fell
lows are quite as vain as the girls and like
TO have pretty clothes until they are
grown up sufficiently to scorn them be-
cause they are only for girls.

City Castles for Millionaires.

There are signs that New York NAV be
entering upon sensational era in house
building. Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt's de-
termination to erect on Fifth avenue resi-
dence to cost 100000 according to
present estimates, and, therefore. perhaps
twice that much before 1t is completed, is
pretty sure to lead other muIti-million-
aires to do the same. 1t seems to be Mr..
Vanderbit's present plan to buy large
p art Of Fifth avenue block not already
owned by him and erect thereon resi-
dence that will eclipse some of the imperial
residences of Europe. The rich and liberal
gentlemen of New y ork are keeping pretty
close watch on each other of late, with a
view to taking notice that one of their
number does not secure any great adyan-
tage over the other one in the religious,
financial or social world.
This was observed when Mr. Rockefel-
ler's recent gift of $1,000, coo to an educa-
tional institution was quickly followed by
one from Jay Gould for $4,000 for church
extension, which has since been
supplemented by $4,000 to the
University of the City of New York.
While Mr.. Gould did not exactly cover
Mr. Rockefeiler's ante, his action never
theless illustrates what | have said. These
rich gentlemen do not like to see any par
ticular gentleman get too far in advance of
the procession. So, if Mr.. Vanderbilt
erectS an expensive habitation in New
York, where ground is scarce and exceed
ingly high priced other rich men are
more than likely to follow his example.
Perhaps it is because they intend TO put
up these imperial palaces that these gen.
tlemen have been endeavoring to make ar
rangements through the legislature to ex-
clude the vulgar public from the use of
