OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
New Eork, march 2oth. "a.


prolific mind scheme which should
! revolutionize the whole Easter busl-
ness. The idea may require capital
| for its successful operation AND
| therefor submit it to your nliiIon-
aires. knowing that if they double
their incomes thereby they Will
readily send me checks for half OF
the profits, The scheme is to IN
troduce a new breed of hens that
will lay beautifully dyed eggs. by
bybridizing your species you would,
of course. secure many rare and vari-
gated designs. The hen is an erratlc
beast anyway SO you could be sure
that she would do something novel
and startling all the time. 1t might
be necessary to keep the chickens on
diet OF diamond dyes and wafer
color paint, but the immense profits
would more than offset the extra eX-
pense. l trust that any of your
rea iers who use my suggestion will
not take mean advantage OF me
and cheat me out Of my share OF the
proceeds.
As an Easter day | consider this
more or less OF a failure. 1t is foggy
and chilly and looks like rain,
The people here went to great ex-
pense on bonnets, flowers and gay
apparel in order to outshine the sun
in splendor. Old Sol somehow got
wind of the conspiracy and refuses
to enter the contest. The women
are naturally much incensed. All
they may do now is to get out on 9th
Avenue and outshine each other-it

that flowers had gone up IN price -

blossoms should be aware of the ap-
proach Of anything intended s. eX-

Speaking of Easter reminds me
that the circus has come to town. 1t
is that grand galaxy of marvellous
wonders: that astounding aggregation
of aeniuses and other animals; that
overwhelming and dazzling concourse
of maenificence aud splendor which
constitutes the greatest show or
, earth which is Bailey's. 1t used to
, be Parnum's and Bailey's, but good

and pleasing. OF course the cage
had their gilded sides on SO that tn
monkeys and snakes would not catch
