Richmond Corner farmer, who recently had
a narrow escape from what might have been
a very serious accident. lie Was holding
horse when the animal started suddenly
throwing him down, and the wagon was
.iraxsed over his body. No bones were
broken, however, and but for few slight
bruises. the farmer was little the worse for
the mishap.

been stored withs the cream OF what he
had read. lie was domestic in his habits

but owing to the i'll health of his wife

In garrison his quarters were ever

he would tell them stories and amuSe

After the death of Gen. AS. Johnston,
the only Southern officer who could be
compared with him was Gen. Joseph f.
Johnston, and yet these two generals
differ widely. Johnston was quick, and
would plan and fight battle before Lee
had decided upon the details OF his
campaign. The former often suffered
defeat by his impetuoSity. while the lat
ter, by seeing that every emergency
was provided for, rarely met with re-
verses.
There was not another general in the

important lines from supposed clique
sources. The weakness was continu-
ance of the feeling developed by the
snow storm, while cables were weak

the visible supply might show an in
crease Of 100000 or 100000. The stock
situation in, Wall street and the general
financial outlook created some distrust
and we're an important bear factor.
Corn was heavy through lack of sup
port. 1t seemed to be day of general
liquidation. Operators were talking
about the big visible supply, which tar
exceeds that of last year at this time.

mand, the fairly liberal movement

the decline and caused slightreaction.
Oats were also slow and weak. and

HER REAL NAME.
Strange Meeting of Young
AuthoIess.

Author ess.
New York Herald.
A woman writer who has just finished
her first attempt at authorship, which
met with a remarkable success, was en-
countered recently at famous club
dinner by gorgeousIy dressed woman.
The latter extended her hand and kissed
her, eXclaiming in heroic and senti-
mental style: II am SO glad. dearest
darling, to welcome you to our ranks"
The peculiar appearance of the woman
rather amused the authoress, and she
replied: "Thank you, but may | venture
to ask you who you are and what work
bears your name?"
"Certainly, my dear. Have you ever
heard of Jane Austin, the New England
authoress? Well. am not she. But
have you ever heard of Jean lngelow.
the poetessW
Yes" was the reply, 'but surely you
are not. She?"
"No. an not she. But have you
ever heard of Elizabeth Phelps Ward?'
my! Yes, indeed. and admired her
works greatly. But
Before she could finish the cratic in
dividual made large bow and replied:
"Well, l am Mrs. Austin Phelps Inge-
low, and | have book out ON every
thing that women do, and [ am said to
combine the best literary style of Jane
Austin. Jean Ingelow and Elizabeth
Phelps Ward"
The young authoress, when she could
break away from her victim, ordered a
cab and drove through the quiet lanes
which border Bloomingdale asylum for
few pleasant, peaceful moments OF re-
Election.

How to Appear to Advantage in

How to Appear to Advantage in
Society at a Slight Expense.
If the Well-dressed men and women
one sees I'D London streets are to be the
criterion, says letter from that city to
the Washington News, any one would
say that the Britisher was the best
dressed mortal in the world, and pos
sessed the largest wardrobe. And prob
ably he is. But there is another element
in London, not paltry 400, but q good
1000, who manage to get along with
other peoples clothes, and yet cut
fairly good figure in certain circles.
These ,000-variable 1000, of course,
for it is, after all, nothing but an aver
age of the daily total in London who
want to be seen but have not the clothes
hire their plumage, whether ball dress
or dress suit, uniform or bridal dress,
trousseau or travelling dress.
You can hire. for the day even. the
full paraphernalia Of Picadiily after
noon dress, and have scarf and collar
thrown in besides. 1t requires no tact,
no knowledge of fashion. not even the
putting on of the garments in question,
for temporary valet or ladies' maid
goes with the equipment if desired
and paid for strictly in advance.
The price demanded for the service
varies from shillings to guinea
night or day, according to the velvet,
lace, or frills which one demands. Sc
curity is perhaps demanded. so that you
have to leave your jewelry behind.
AS may be supposed. the circles which
patroniZe these establishments are not
lords and ladies of the real, but somes
times they are their younger brothers
and too distant relatives, who OCCASION
ally are allowed to act as wall flowers in
the ancestral establishment, and yet
cannot afford and do not need full
wardrobe. With this latest economic
reform life will be worth living for a
goodly collection who heretofore have
lived in sorrow and darkness. and we
may expect soon to see q lively tussie
for social success between those who
buy their clothes but don't pay for
them and those who hire other peoples
clothes and pay therefor.
