several generations represented, old
and young mingiing together in truly

were not disposed to dance there were
card tables in coy corners, and other
amusements provided, but dancing
was the chief occupation, especially
among the Younger set, although many
a quadrille showed there were none
too old for this enjoyment. Music was

made himself extremely popular with
his female friends, particularly

performers and performances, which
were conducive to the dul!est mortal's
joy, might be mentioned, but time for
bids. The ladies of the order came
forward with a bountiful supper,
which, of course, was not the least Of the
evenings successes. Future entertain
ments by the Eastern Star are certain
to be pleasurably anticipated.

Germany,s Military pigeons.

Germany has for years possessed the
most efficient pigeon service in Europe.
At Strasburg there are 600 birds, at
Metz 600, at Thorn 1000, and they
are kept by the hundreds at other
centers. such as Mainz. Cologne, Kiel
and Danzig. The whole frontier is
connected by pigeon post with the
military headquarters and with towns
in the interior. The service is sup
ported by an appropriation of 5000 a
year. The practical use of the pigeon
poet was fully demonstrated at the
siege of Paris in 1870. Since then it
has become a recognized part Of the
military organization of all European
countries except Great Britain. Rus
STA has now on her Polish frontier
alone 5000 birds, and appropriates
yearly $4,000 for pigeons. The
French appropriation is twice as large.

Hard to Suit.

An importer of rattan furniture COM
plains that it is impossible to keep up
with the vagaries Of public taste In
the seasons when he imports big chairs
customers come round and complain
that there's nothing low enough for a
woman to occupy in comfort, and,
when next season he imports small
chairs there is a growl because there
is nothing roomy and luxurious. The
best OF the oriental furniture imported
for the last fifteen years has taught
the western world a lesson in luxury,
and it is worthy OF note that the light.
cool chairs, lounges and the like, of
Chinese, japanese, and East Indian
make are peculiarly fitted to the semi
tropical summer of this region.

"A TEXAS BULLY
Cory Rccoliecttons Revived by a Brook,

lyn Woman's watch.
"Ben Thompson, the noted Texas
desperate and gambler, who died with
his boots on in the Vaudeville theater at
San Antonio, wore this watch the
night of his death said w. s. Allen,
of Brooklyn, exhibiting neat, lady IS
size, hunting case, silver timepiece.
1t was pretty little Swiss trinket OF
most excellent workmanship, hand
somely engraved and enameled and
gold trimmed. 1T was Ben's favorite
timepiece.n continued Mr.. Allen, to
the New York Advertiser man, land
he paid $75 for it short time before
his death, After he was planted
some one put the watch up at a rattle
for $50 and friend of mine won it for
81. Then / traded for it. suppose
it's worth about $25 at present market
prices, but | would not take 500 for
it.
"A noted popularity about this
noted man slayer was that under no
circumstances would he sleep in a
room in the dark Do you know the
only man who ever called Thompson S
bluff and Won was newspaper man,
w. p. Gaines of the Austin Statesman?
Somehow Ben decided that the cattle
men who had assembled in Austin in
convention in 1888 should not partake
of their winding up dinner. With
Ben to decide was to do,so he mounted
his horse and rode into the banquet
room just as the guests were being
seated, demolished everything and dis
persed the guests. Editor Gaines had
the temerity the next day to denounce
Thompson as a blackguard and bully
and brute. Ben sent the editor
word that at 3 p. m. that day he would
call and hoped Gaines would in the in
term, secure ample life assurance.
Gaines supplied every man in the Of
fee with a Winchester. but when
Thompson came up, smiling po-
litely-Thmpson was a mighty
polite, affable fellow even if he was
going TO kill you the entire force de-
camped. some going through second
story windows in their haste. Thomp-
son rambled around until he found
Gaines and stated the terms on which
Mr.. Gaines might live. Mr.. Gaines
did not accept, but told Mr.. Thompson
that so long as he continued to disport
himself as thug, Just so long he
would receive the attentions due a
thug in the columns of the Statesman.
i am unarmed, Mr.. Thompson, said
Mr.. Gaines. and you may kill me, but
if You do you viii certainly swing for
it. and l will never retract word I
have published, not to save my life.
Such grandeur of nerve staggered
Thompson and he walked out, jumped
into buggy, and drove across the
railway tracks and stood there three
hours, delaying the United States mail
meanwhile. The whole town was
afraid of Thompson when he was in {.
'tantrum, but he was very gentle.
