Wig and Gown.

It was once the invariable practice Of
barristers to powder their wigs, but this
custom has now almost entirely disap-
peared from the bar. Only one advo-
cate, so far as we are aware, saves 1t
from absolute death, and heis Sir Henry
James, whose black shoulders are always
sprinkled with the White powder that
falls from his wig. This distinguished
lawyer shows that wig and gown may
be worn In more ways than one. His
gown never fails to slip from his shoua-
ders while he Is addressing the court,
and he is accustomed to herald each
fresh argument he brings to bear upon
the case by attempting to restore the
fallen gown to Its proper place.
In this respect he resembles another
eminent @. c., Mr.. Finlay, whose gown
Is always half way down his back. Sir
Charles Russell and Sir Richard Web
ster and the other leaders Of the bar do
not display any peculiarities in the wear
ting Of their wigs and gowns. There Is at
least one well known member of the bar
who, not content with permitting bis
gown to slip down to his waist, wears his
wigatan angle that perilously approaches
his nose.-London Tit-Bits.

Dainty Doggie.

A woman who was robed in dress of
stylish make, and who showed by her
air that she was in the circle of the well
to do, was accompanied by little pug
dog. The street was somewhat muddy
from the water that had been lavishly
sprinkled upon it by the city's watering
cart. Little PIGGY ran into the street,
where he saw nice bit of bone, and
even his aristocratic breed and training
could not restrain him from taking at
least few bites of it. He was inclined
to bring the choice tidbit to the pave
ment, but his mistress forbade this, SO
be dropped the tempting morsel and
skunk on to the sidewalk again.
But In puggys nibblings at the bone
be had muddied his little fattened out
nose. The woman scolded him as seri-
ously as though he were child. He &C
knowledged the business of the repri-
mand by dropping his aristocratic head
In a remorseful manner. His mistress
thereupon patted his head, and taking a
delicate lace edged handkerchief from her
handbag, deliberately wiped dear, naugh-
ty little puggy's nose.-Boston Herald.

Philadelphia wnltzing Mice.

Lately the employees at the Philadel-
phia Geological garden have been amused
by the antics of some queerlittle animals
which are not on public exhibition. The
newcomers are black and white Japa-
nese waltzing mice, seven In number.
When let out of their cages, they wink
at each other and step gracefully forward
with movement which some of the be-
holders declare Is bow. Head Keeper
Manley whistles Annie Rooney" and
the mice skip away In pairs with queer,
whirling motion. When he strikes up
"The Bowery," they revolve so fast that
nothing can be seen but little gray balls,
"Ta-ra-ra Boom-de-ay" causes them to
'swing corners" and dance "all hands
around" Once the owner ventured to
play the "Dead March" while they were
dancing. With whisk of their tails
the little rodents fled to the cages like a
man pursued by the nightmare.-Phila-
delphia Inquirer.

She Surprised the Board.

Mrs, Stowe Cullen, M. D., Of the To
ronto school board recently surprised
that body by showing that the appoint
ment of four public school supervisors
was Illegal. She introduced resolution
abolishing the useless Office, pointed out
clearly that the law gave the board no
power to appoint any such officials, hence
that they were spending annually $4,000
of the peoples money without legal au-
thority. The board could not gainsay
her argument and so adopted her resolu-
tion.-Torouto Mail.

NIPPED "A RINGER.
Another of the Brannons' Schemes
Headed Off

New ORLEANS, Jan. THE forty
second day Of the winter meeting had
fair attendance, track slightly heavy
and muddy, but still affording firm
footing for the horses, and form gov
erned to an entent, as three favOrltes
won. The fourth race saw something
of a repetition of the Post Odds episode,
and the Brannon brothers seem to
have been connected with this
case, as we'll as a Northwestern
owner named E. McCabe' who
has been running Larghetta and 9TH
er horses. McCabe entered Marksman
chestnut horse, aged, Meteor-Fannie
Campell. in a five and a half furlong
race for non-winners fOur-year5-old and
over. AS the horse was a late arrival,
and this was his first appearance, the
clerk of the scales looked up his ante
cendpnts and found no snch horse in
the stud book. He grew suspicious, and
referred the cases to the board of con-
troll, and they found that McCabe had
wired to the Brannons at CoYington,
KY, and Columbus, o.: Horse entered
tomorrow. All o. K" A wire was
sent to Bayne, who runs the pool room
at Columbus, and it was learned that
the horse had been played there heavily.
Similar stories were received from
other points, but at the track there were
very few bets. The horse was shown to
have been shipped from Nashville,
where McCabe says that he bought him,
and he admitted that the name was of
recent invention. The animal has been
worked at night, and he very closely
resembled the description given Of Post
Odds. After the examination of the
animal and the circumstances surround
ing the race, the judges ruled McCabe
and Allen Acaven, his partner, off the
track until they proved that the horse
was not ringer, All bets were de-
cIared off, and Il new book ordered with
out the presence OF Marksman. The re-
suits:

and had the petition which they signed
contained true statement of the facts
in. the case, every man i'll my district
would have been justified in signing
1t. Section of the petition says that
my abandonment of my co-WorkerS and
forming Il compact with the Republic
ans to organize the senate for the paltry
sum of S264 in the shape of an office
which is unnecessary at present for my
son. The facts are these: | united
temporarily with the Republicans
in the interests Of my consti-
tuents and not for position for
my son, who is filling place which is
and has been positively necessary from
the commencement OF the present seS-
sion, and he is now doing as much work
for the pay received as any employe of
the senate. AS to selling my "birth-
right for mess of pottage" | will say
that had followed the counsel and ad-
vice of one of the signers of that petl-
ton, l would have organized with the
Democrats, and got position not only
for my son, but also for the man who is
most likely the chief inStigator of this
very petition. This man is Albert War
rem. He proposed to pay me we'll if l
would combine with the Democrats and
get him position in the senate.
Section 2 of the resolution charges
ME with going into the Republican
caucus to elect United States senator;
this charge is utterly false. l never
entered into any caucus to vote for

to say: That this movement smacks
very strongly of Democratic manlpula-
tion. The object is to punish me for
uniting with the Republicans to organ

that the combine was very un-
satisfactory to my constituents, and

Two More Games Added to the
Tourney.

Play was resumed yesterday in the
Foley balk-lime billiard tourney, the
game of the afternoon being between
Bixby and Black. Both of the players
showed strong symptoms of nervous
ness, as both are new to the tour
nament. and the latter never having
before played in public. The result
was a mixture OF very good and very in
different work. Black won the bank
and led off with five billiards, adding
four on the next play, while BiXOy be-
gan with four and followed with a series
of blanks. For the first string the
game ran along about even, then BiXby
gradually drew ahead and finally
cleared his 100 points with 81 chalked
up TO the credit Of Black. The
average was fraction under two and
the high runs were seven each. Each
has the ability to largely increase the
average. There were many pretty shots,
and they were very evenly distributed
throughout the game. Better things
are expected in future engagements in
the tournament, for these two only need
experience to make q strong game. In
practice they do excellent work. 1t is
when they come to the competitive test
that they fall down.
Wilder and Wilmot played the second
game. 1t was called at s O'Clock last
evening. Wilder made good and
strong game, but he was beaten on his
merits in the 1inal stages. Wilmot
scored 100 to Wilder's 6S, and he had
runs of Is, II and 10 to his credit, while
Wilder'S high run was II. 1t was a
picturesque game, although it did last
thirty-Seven innings.

Result OF the Glove Contest Be-

entire West. jackson and Bordeaux.
of Minneapolis, had glove contest be-
fore the Phoenix Athletic club, and Bor-
deauX was stopped. The effect of tn at
final croSs-counter has proven disastrous
to Bordeaux, and his friends despair
of his recovery. This fact has led to
Jackson's arrest 1t is also asserted that
he was on the street in good health
after the encounter. 1t is a technical
question, and will doubtless excite a
great deal of oratory on the part of the
conteSting attorneys. 1t was a glove
contest, ana four ounce gloves were
used. Jackson made a cross counter
that was accepted by Bordeaux jaw
and that ended it. jackson was some
twenty pounds the heavier of the two,
although he agreed TO weigh in at less
pounds. John A. Barnes. of the
Phoenix Athlete club, was seen last
evening, and he asserted that nothing
could result. The case is test of the
Law, and the final only remains.

the result would have been different,
and Tom F0ley's habiliaments for the
next thirty days would have been
Backcloth and ashes. Tom was on the
nlleys mourning tearfully every miss
that Capt john Barnes made, but his
soy at the end knew no bounds: The
WabaSha Indians downed Capt. Nettle-
toms Faber pushers with a relentless
stride, but. rs related, the fault
was with Ward and the doughty
captain. With break after break. and
bad balls. too, no victory could be eX-
pected. Still. the Indians were pushed
TO the best game they have played thus
far in the series. 1t was so close dur
ing the first stages that the excitement
was at fever heat, but when Capt.
Barnes began to bowl down thlrtes
in frame 1t was apparent
that the fight was futile. Clifford
and Wood did admirable work for the
Press club, but the high score went to
Edwards, of the Wabasha club. The
next game will be between the Press
club and the Phoenix Athletic club.
