Arrival Of the Principals In the New
York Society Sensation.
NEW YORK., March A.--When the
steamer Majestic arrived.at the quaran-
tine station yesterday afternoon there
was a crowd Of reporters on hand wait
ing to interview Messrs. Drayton and
Borrowe, the principals In the scandal
in high life, in which Mrs. Drayton, the
daughter Of William Waldorf Astor, is
the principal cause. The first man to
greet Drayton was B. l.. Upshur, son of
the well known naval officer. who was
closeted with his friend for long time
Young Borrowe was accompanied by
Henry Vane Milbank. When shown the
published story of the preparation for
the duel and asked what he thought of
it, or what he desired to say, he drawl-
ingly replied: "Well, really, / cawnt
Drayton once in the smoking room, but
they had not spoken.
Milbank then took the matter out OF
Borrowers hanus, and said that Mr..
Borrowe would not make any state
ment "Refering" he said, ito the
Drayton matter, we can't afford to talk
or make any explanations. 1t is some
thing that should not be published any
how" When suggested that MIR. Bor-
rowe was afraid to fight MIR. Milbank
said: ''lf any stories OF cowardice on
the part OF Mr.. Borrowe are aaoat there
Is nothing real in them"
Mr. Upshur was then seen. He was
talking earnestly to her grace, the
Duchess of Marlborough, who was a
passenger on the Majestic. Said he:
"Mr. Drayton will look over this matter
and all that has been published will be
carefully read. After a consultation
with some of his friends he will decide
what course to take"
He was asked if he thought the
trouble which had occurred on the other
side would be revived here.
mo" said he. Not of that kind.
Mr.. Drayton will, however, make an
answer to these stories through the
public press" Mr.. Upshur thought the
statement would be ready in few days.

MEcHANIcsBURa, Pa, March 24.-One
week ago Harry Pyk, of New Kingston,
Cumberland county, was bitten on the
hand by hog that was about to be
slaughtered. The wound was well
cauterized and thought to be apparently
healed until a few days afterwards the
young man was taken with scarlet
fever. Then the wound reopened and
blood poisoning set it, which resulted in
his death last evening after the most
agonizing sufferings.

Poets and Dogs.

Poets have always loved dogs. In
this poets and boys resemble each
other. Walter Savage Landor was
devoted to his dog Giallo, aud Byron's
epitaph upon his dog Boatswain we
all remember
ITO mark friends remains, these stones
arise;
never had but one. and their he Hes"
Cowper was very fond Of his dog
and We knew how Charles Lamb.
who was prose poet, loved bis Dash.
and how Mrs. Browning appreciated
the little Flush to whom she inditeds
poem. The Earl OF Shaftesbury kept
his noble collie in his library with
him at all times, and Samuel Rogers,
always walked out with his dog
Scott declined al invitation to dinner
when his dog died, saying that he
could not accept on account Of the
loss Of an old friend.
Wordsworth and Scott both cele-
brated in their poems the famous old
Gelert. This dog, deer-hound. was
given by King John 10 his son-in-law
LIewellyn, who kept him at bis hunt
ing-lodge, in the neighborbood Of the
Walsh mountain Snowdon. Gelert
was missed one morning from the
hunt by his master. LleweIlyn, upon
bis return to the lodge. saw the dog,
and discovered that its mouth was
besmeared with blood. Concluding
that the dog had deyoured bis CHILD,
the infuriated master slew the poor
animal. Upon investigation, he dis
covered a dead wolf by the chiId's
cradle while the child was safely and
soundly sleeping. The brave dog had
saved LlewelIyn's heir from the wolf.
A monument was erected to the faith
ful creature, which bears the name OF
Beth-Gelert.

Don't Let Trifies Annoy You.

that worry you, aud see what becomes
Of them, IL would be a benefit to you.
You allow thing TO annoy you, just
as you allow fly 10 settle on you and
plague you; and you lose yourtemper

looking Is quite as important. And
II We should take time TO write down

Anecdo,e of stcnewaII Jackson.

When General William II. Gibson,
OF Ohio. delivered an oratioa short
time ago before the New York Con-
ference Veteran Association, he told
an anecdote OF Stonewall Jackson
which has never been printed. IL isa
story, says the New York Times, which
illustrates the best side Of the old Con-
federate Generals character.
When Stonewall jackson entered
fredericksburg in 1862. :" said General
Gibson, there was in that town an
old friend Of mine. named Zscharius,
who was the pastor OF the Methodist
Church The Confederate General en-
tered the place early Sunday morning.
and when the hour ofmorning service
arrived ZachariuS was much disturbed
10 notice among his congregation
Stonewall Jackson and several OF his
officers. Ny old friend was particu.
larll disturbed because he had pre-
pared 10 make u prayer for the Prrsi-
Ntnl anu llt sutttrS " Ait hoNioh
cause. and he was afraid OF offending
Stomewall jackson, whom he knew
TO be IA particularly bad man To al
front.
When the time came for the prayer,
Zacharius hesitated n little, but at
length his courage came, and he went
on with IA particularly fervid eNhorta-
ton for divine favor upon the Union
lists side. After the service Stonewall
Jackson came up to the minister aud
said:
THAT was very good sermon OF
yours, but noticed that when You
offered prayer YOU seemed rather EN-
baraSsed.
"Zacharius admitted the fact, where
upon Jackson said: 1 am glad you
acted as You did, for | can thoroughly
respect man who has the courage
OF his convictions. -
