"It's NV Way"

Many years ago Edwin Forrest, the
celebrated actor, was in the habit of
dining at Windust's, a noted restaurant
on Park row, that was favorite resort
of actors and literary men. 1t usually
happened that Forrest would be joined
by friends, and that the little group
would sit together at one table. On one
occasion it CHANGED that an Englishman
with a reputation for conceit and imper-
Thence, who had scraped acquaintance
with the tragedian, was one of the group.
Early in the course of the dinner the
Englishman began to make criticisms,
which he considered pleasantries, about
Forests conception of certain roles.
Encouraged by his own appreciation he
gave full play to his humor, and con-
Guided each of his impertinences with,
Pardon my freedom, sir; it's my way. :"
To the establishment of all who knew
Forests irascible disposition he bore
the Briton's offensive remarks patiently
and seemingly ignored them as far as
possible. When, however, the nuts were
brought in by the waiter he took several
cracked walnuts in his hand, and, walk
ing over to the Briton's place, jocularly
snapped them successfully in the face of
that individual, lightly saying after each
shot, pardon my freedom, sir; it's my
way" and snapped him out of the res

But | would like to know what sort of

a35, 900 a Year for a Trainer.

All the big money on the turf does not
go to the starters and the men who
hold stock in the associations. Take
Wyndham Walden, for instance, grave
and judicial in aspect, who during the
past few years has been training for j.
A. and A. Fl. Morris. Walden is also
Virginian, and, like the horses he
trains, he boasts that he comes of ''rac-
ing stocl1,'' as his father was in the
same business before him. Like Jim
my Rowe, he began as boy about the
stable, finally DOMINIC the coveted silk
of the jockey, and when he got too
heavy to ride betool1 himself to train
ing. His contract with Morris and SOC
is worth to him about $35, 200 annually,
which is considerably more than any
other trainer earns. He receives
fixed salary of $4,000 a year and per-
centage of the winnings, affording him
an aggregate income as above. He was
formerly trainer for Mr.. George Loril-
lard, and while in charge of this stable

lawyer, till he was forced to devote
himself wholly to the management of
the large estate which he inherited.
How man, with admittedly good, and
even great, mental gifts and accom-
plishments should consent to devote his
lime and talents to making himself
noted in the ''smart SET" which he did
not get into without some struggle, is a
marvel to men of average attachments.
Mr.. Martins chief distinction is that of
d giver of elaborate entertainments,
which are much more remarkable Tor
their expensiveness than for their ex-
cellence One of his most celebrated
exploits in the entertainment line was
the giving of a much advertised and
much more boosted of dinner at cost
of $50, 900, which, by all accounts, would
have been dear dinner at one-tenth of
that sum,

An Old Time Conductor.

We had conductor named William
Ford, who was the most pompous and
imposing man I ever saw. He was no
good, and the boys called him Windy
Bill on the sly, but the hardest of them
dared not say anything less than Mr.
Ford to his face. He was big man,
and dressed in the best broadcloth and
walked about as if the earth belonged to
him. One day he walked into the office
at station where my wife and little
boy were sitting in the waiting room.
AS he passed through every one made
room for him OF tried to show him at
tention. My little boy watched him
quietly till he disappeared, and then he
whispered to his mother, "Ma, was that
God?" Engineer.

developed the wonderful Sensation, tho
horse that as 2-year-old won eight
straight stake races. 1t was sWalden
that brought out the speedy Tom
Ochiltree and the Duke of Magenta,
and there are some horses in the Morris
stables at the present time of which a
great deal is expected.
There are jockeys who earn in the
course of the year half as much as the
president of the United States, and for
all these luxurious incomes on the turf
the meek but speculative American
public pays the bills. And the large
sums which are beng paid for horses
indicate that there is belief in sport
ing circles that it will keep on paying
them. While it has been questioned
that Malcolm Forbes paid $4,000 for
Arion, the phenomenal two-year trot-
ter. see nothing unlikely in the story.
Mr.. Forbes has the money to make such
an investment and it is well known that
he has a vaulting ambition in the mat
ter OF yachts and fast trotters. st.
Blaise was knocked down at public sale
at 100000, and the horses that sell for
$4,000 to $4,000 are becoming quite
common. And that large part of the
public possessed of the hallucination
that it can beat the boolmalsers at their
own game settles the score in the end.

Cosmopolitan Cooking.

There is belief current that what
ever can be procured for money can be
had in this city, especially if it is any
thing to eat. The people who flock here
from every part of the country are apt,
sooner or later, to import their native
dishes, and to make them acceptable to
gastronomic New York.
New England, no matter how lightly
her cooking may be estimated, has had
notable success of this kind. Baked
beans, pumpkin pie and Boston brown
bread are with us. The western man
and his pork are known and appreciated.
The Frenchman, the Irishman, the Eng
lishman, the German and the Italian
can go into any restaurant and find his
national food.-New York Evening Sum-

A DREAM OF LONG AGO.

1 stand in the land of the Long Ago
And my heart is light and my mind is free,
And the breezes are soft as the winds that blow
Ger the isles OF the old HEgean Sea.
It is only dream-would l never could wake
To the throb and to yearn for the youth time
gone;
Would it could last; for the heart must ache
When the Real comes back and the Dream
has flown.
lie by the river of Long Ago.
In the golden time of the golden June.
Oh. the grass is sweet, and the rivers flow
Is whispering over the dear old tune
That hear with a passionate content,
Tho my hearts ablaze and my pulse aglowi
But never dream that this life was meant
To hold such pain as this Long Ago.
Only dreamer, and only dream;
But was there ever dream like this?
OF lilac and roses, and the CLEAN
OF girls warm eyes, and the chng1ng kiss
OF a boys first love-had it been the last,
AS swore in my fervor it should be SO!
Perhaps there would be no sting to the past
Or pain in this dream Of the Long Ago

The Duke and the Dudes.

Whatever feeling of sympathy there
might be in this city with the English
people over the death of the duke OF
Clarence, ETC., was rudely, ridiculously
upset, smashed, turned into hilarious
laughter, by the comic spectacle OF a
lot of little dudes, the ''Cholleys" and
the rest, actually going into mourning
for the loss of zone of the family" I'm
less current report for many years
much belied the Gsilze, mentally, he was
of the same family, of the same kind
indeed, that distinguishes our little
dudes. They were very sad for a day
or two over the death of the duke and
the most Of them would have drowned
their grief in at least one drink in Del
monicos or in the Hoffman art gallery
had not their chronic impecuniosity
long ago barred them from those hos
pitable hostelries.
