OUTSIDERS TO The FRONT.

Alexander Island Talent Had Rather Poor
Luck Picking the Winners.
When Phil Daily, favorite, had won the
opening event yesterday at the Island track,
the talent expected field day. But the next
three choices were bowled over cleanly and
neatly. In the last race John McGarrigle
was at one time a 8 to choice, but at post
time it was even money and take your pick
between McGarrigle and Pilgrim. For some
reason Jockey Dwyer, who had the mount on
Slander in the first race, was permitted to
dismount after every breakaway. Sum-

REDUCING THE OLD TUNNEL DEBT.
The "old tunnel debt which the District
has been slowly llquidating at the average an
nual rate of about s45, 600, appropriated from
the water fund, will be further reduced under
an order which will be issued to-day by the
District Commissioners for the transfer OF
$500 600 from the surplus general revenues"
remaining on the 30th day OF June, 1884.
This transfer was authorized by the last ap-
propriation bill enacted by Congress and ap-
proved August Z, 1894. and when consunn-
mated will be the first diversion thus made OF
the general revenues since the debt was
created.
On one former occasion a similar appropri-
alton of about one-sixth of the amount was
made for the same purpose, but owing to the
necessities of the District Congress refunded
the amount. The additional sum of &24,-

company TO use it on all their cars and not

Ut OF those who need them.
A Miss Dunlap. who seems to be q
wise person, offers the following ad-
vice:
Don't adopt the latest mode,
Don't trail your dress upon the road,
Don't ever lace your waist too tightly,
Don't wear boot or glove unsightly,
Don't wear a thing that needs repair.
Don't, please, forget to brush your hair,
Don't ever wear too large a check,
Don't show too much OF snowy neck.
Another student says:
Don't be slave to fashion, but
rather make fashion your hand maid.
Don't follow fashion blindly to
any of her extremes; she has way
of laughing in her sleeve at fools Of
her own creating.
Don't think because your neighbours
bonnet is becoming to her, it will nec-
essarily be becoming to yourself.
Don't go in for quantity so much as
quality in dress. One we'll made gown
is worth half dozen ill-fitting ones
Don't forget that the dress of sweet
seventeen is no longer becoming to
the woman of forty
Don't neglect the accessories Of
dress; untidy gloves, unshapely shoes,
will destroy the effect of the most
charming toilet
Don't unless you are possessed of
great powers of self-restrainD expose
yourself to the temptation of cheap

The Man Who tired carlyle.

There is story of Carlyle in his old
age having taken the following fare
we'll in his broadcast Scotch of young
friend who had had him in charge for
walks, and who while almost always
adapting himself to Carlyle's mood had
on single occasion ventured to dis
agree with him, II would have you to
know, young man, that you have the
capacity of being the greatest bore in
Christendom. The boredom had con-
sisted solely in the rather negative sin
of not having been convinced of the
truth of one of Carlyle's dogmas, sin
all the more heinous because, instead of
standing boldly up to Carlyle and de-
claring his doctrine utterly perverse
the companion had betrayed his weak
ness by an apologetic tone.
Now, Carlyle liked disciples, and he
respected antagonists, but he could not
endure being merely thwarted without
being thoroughly reused. He felt in
that case that he had made no impress
sion at all on his interlocutor; that he
had neither won him nor excited him
to resistance. And nothing bored him
so much as that. OF course it is only
exceptionally despotic minds that are
