beggar belonging to the class called
Kommando-Schieber. These fellows
beg usually within very small districts
and know every house that is good"
for meal or ''pfennig. My newly
made friend was kind enough to in
struct both Carl and me in regard to
Madgeburg.
"This town is rather heiss (unfriend-
ly), said he, but if you look out and
beg very carefully you can get along.
A great trick here now is to tip the
PORTER of good houses, and thus get the
pull on every fiat in the building.
You've got to lookout for the putz,
though, for if you're caught, you're
sure for twentyfour hours in the
hasten (prison). Another scheme that
works pretty well with us fellows who
know the town, is to send around beg
ging letters. You can easily make
quite a stoss (hauD if you work the plan
we'll. Still, it's risky for strangers. If
you are going to stay here long, you'd
better make friends with the her6ergs-
cater. He's pretty good kerl (fellow)
and if you let him know that you've
got little money, he'll look out for
you when the putz makes his inspec-
tion now and then. There's nothing,
you know, like standing in with them
that's kIug (clever), and you can bet
that fellow is :. ~. What do you say
to-a schnapps, brother?"
My first night in this tramps' nest
was one | shall never forget. / slept
with an old beggar in bed long since
given over to other dodgers, who fought
us that night as if We're Frenchmen.
And the stencil in the sleeping-room
was similar to that of pigsty. Any
complaint, however, would have been
useless, for the price paid was only
three cents, and for that sum of money
one could not expect very much. Then,
too, the host asked for no "1egitima-
tions-papier, and this was an ad-
vantage which must be set over
against most of the annoyances. New
ertheless, | was glad enough to turn
out early In the morning and look for
a breakfast, which was soon found,
but thoroughly European in quantity.
Carl continued begging even after his
breakfast, while l remained In the
lodging-house talking with some of
the inmates.

compared to any horse in the world
owner. The stakes won by the Eng
lish colt, however, averaged greater
net value than did those taken by the
brown son of Himyar that Mr.. Keene
senior named Domino. 1t might also
be said that the duke of Portland's
stable is the only one likely to be
ahead of the Keene stable at the end
of this season, for the money won thus
far amounts to 1869, 300.
Jockey Fred Taral rode Domino in
every one of his races with the excep-
ton of the Great Trial, when Americas
best jockey, Edward Ii. Garrison,
piloted the colts to victory. Domino's
speed was known to every turfman in
the country who could read long before
he made his appearance, and the
consequence was that May %, at
Gravesend, when he faced the starter
in tive-furlong sweepstakes, the tai
ent made the maiden colt an odds on
favorite. He won in LOO, cantering in
easily with a field of ten behind him
strung out according to their quality.
American stakes at five furlongs, car
rying 11S pounds, in 1:O1I, beating
Dobbins, his principal rival, Joe Rip
ley, Declare and four others. With
the same weight up Domino showed
his qualities at Morris park, winning
the Great Eclipse stakes. six furlongs,
in 1:124l, again defeating Dobbins, De-
clare and others. The Great Trial
stakes fell to him, although he carried
l25 pounds, and Dobbins, Hyderabad
and six others were behind him
These victories were sufficient to in
duce the Keenes to send him to
Washington park to capture the
worlds fair and Hyde park stakes.
Domino came under the special care
of Trainer Lakeland, with FL Tele-
grafo, whom the public regarded as
merely ''stablo companion" to the
wonder Great was the aStonishment
when Domino was withdrawn because
of the trace of lameness that had ap-
peared and El TELEGRAPH was left to
bear the Kecne colors to victory in the
exposition stake. Some said Domino's
stable mate got the stake by flulie,
but the Eeencs received the money
nevertheless, and Domino had no diff
Guilty on July l3 in winning the Hyde
park stake. BY this time Domino was

The Futurity winner. When the
Produce stake was placed to his credit
august 10, the people said the Futuri-

to form, Domino bore 1870 pounds over
the Futurity course and captured that
event, worth Si9,a50, after hard drive
from Dobbins and Galilee. The dead
heat with Dobbins came next, and to
conclude his achievements in a we'll
rounded manner Domino broke the
worlds record in winning the last
great two-year old event, the Matron
stakes. Morello, the best two-year-old
of 1892, became the greatest three-year-
old of the country in 1893: why will not

superst,tious Rites in Persia.

The Persians resort to curious rites
for the purpose of averting the attacks
OF the cholera. One of the most wide
ly practiced of these is that of passing
under the Koran. Two elders stand
opposite each other, holding between
them n scroll of the Koran, wrapped In
silsen scarf. Under this swinging
talisman the peasants pass one by one,
and then go home, convinced that the
cholera will not be able to touch them.
The Persians stick to these ancient
ceremonials in spite of the fact that
the epidemic is working sad havoc
among them.

is That of San Francisco, With Its Good
Cookery and Service.
The managers of the Woman's Ex-
change in San Francisco are demon
strating the value Of such an organiza-
tion in other and more practical lines
than as a depot for embroidered doy-
lies and painted menu cards. They
have rented large and pleasant room
on one of the principal business streets,
and serve appetizing lunches at rea-
sonable rates to the public, 1t is by
no means u ladies' lunch room, though
the unmistakable fine touch of wom-
ans taste makes the place most attrac-
tive and homelilxe. The window is
filled with wealth of flowers, not
gathered carelessly, but grouped with
a happy harmony of color. These
flowers are for sale as well as for dec
grafton. Each of the immaculate little
tables inside has its bouquet of flowers
There are rose days. when every flower
belongs to the Queens family. There
are pink days, and violet days, and
cool green and white days, when the
flowers of divers kinds follow the same
color scheme, and the place is pretty
enough LOT d wedding. Inc pnOtOg-
raphers of the city frequently perpet-
uate the picturesque scene in photo
graphs which find ready sale, and the
patrons find the place most charming
for entertaining their friends.
OF course, without a good cook in the
kitchen all these frills and furbelows
would amount to little in the minds of
men, but the cooking done by woman
is exceedingly good. The whole place
is run by women, the only man being
Chinaman who scours tin and keeps
the floor clean in the kitchen. This
kitchen is always on exhibition from
one of the windows of the room set
apart for the use of ladies up stairs,
and the cleanliness of the place is
not the least attractive feature by any
means.
The waiting upon guests is all done
by women, who are not allowed to re-
ceive any fee. If some insistant and
grateful customer refuses to depart
without giving fee the waitress turns
it over to the management The super
intendent, a most cultured and cordial
lady, presides over the whole, and as
for noise and confusion it is unknown.

Social customs in Japan differ widely
rom those which prevail among us.
Over there, for instance, a wedding
must be rather of a melancholy affair.
1t is not good form for the bride to ad-
NIT that she is glad to get married.
When she is told of the prospect She is
expected to howl loudly and long.
Also she must keep it up by day and
by night until the ceremony takes
place. After she has been richly
dressed for the event she must renew
her shrielts and hang back until one of
the attendants throws a veil over her
face. Then an old hag takes her on
her back and carries her to sedan
chair. When she arrives at the bride
groom's house she is wife, the
simple ride in the dowery chair being
the only legal ceremony required
though profuse entertainment and con-
gratulations from assembled guests
follow her arrival

DOMINO'S FINE RECORD.
The Greatest Year-Old of the
Present Season.
He Has Earned the Enormous Sum of
S17G,73O for His Owners-Entered for
Every Big Event Possible
Next Year.

Domino, two-year-old that was
never beaten, was formerly retired for
the season by his owners, James r..
and Foxhan p. Keene, the other dav.
These sportsmen could well afford to
prepare the colt for an easy winter in
fine barn, with covered way for his
daily gallops Every great two-year-
old event in the east but one, the
Junior champion stakes, was won by
this phenomenal performer. That this
race was not added to his list of vic
tories was the fault of an exercise boy
who handled the valuable youngster so
carelessly in his preliminary trial that
Domino came in lame. Trainer Lake
land would not allow the colt to start
showing symptoms of lameness.
Neither would the Messrs. Keene, for
they have gained an enviable reputa-
tion on the American turf because of
their ironclad determination never to
start horse unless he is fit to race
well.
Eight successive victories and an ex-
asperating dead heat race with Dob
bins, colt that he should have beaten
as handily as he has the other two
year-olds of the first division, is the
grand record of Domino His total
winnings, says the Chicago Post, reach
the enormous sum of SIG, 730, or sew
eral thousands more than any other
horse bred in America ever put to his
credit in one year. But for Ayrshire,
a colt owned by the duke of Portland,
the same might be said of Domino,
