SOCIETY TO H TROTTER.
The most discussed horses shown yes
terday were the Morgan bred stations.
1t was the first time this famous strain
has been eXhibited-a sad commentary
on the patriotism of the managers of the
show.
There were only three of the Morgans,
Joseph Battell's old Denning Allen, by
Honest Allen; W. NJ. V. Hofiman's Ben
Thurston, and f. w. COolbaugh's Eden
GOlddust.
Old Denning Allen, who was selected
as "A model by Max Landsberg, the
sculptor sent over by the German gov
eminent, was very properly given the
blue ribbon. He is a fine type of the
vigorous, f%orceful Morgan strain. Ben
Thurston was second and Eden Gold
dust was disqualified, partly because he
was lame and partly because the Judges
expressed some doubts as to his being
a true Morgan. His pedigree is correct,
however doubtful his legs may be, as he
is properly entered in the Morgan Reg
ister.- New York World, Sunday.
There were but three entries for the
class for Morgan-bred stations, among
them being the great horse Denning AL

York city and foaled in Kentucky. He
was taken to Arkansas and driven by a
physician there in his practice for ten
years. He was afterward bought by j.
Battell of Middlebury. VT, and is now
his property. Mr.. Battell is the pub
Usher of the Morgan Horse Register,
and is considered the authority OF the
breed in this country. Denning Allen
is 81 years old. out is remarkably well
preserved for that age, and is one of the
most imposing-looking animals in the
show. He was one of the animals
modelled by Max Lansberg, who was

Denning Allen yesterday were Ben
Thurston, owned by w. NJ. V. Hoffman

think Eden GOlddust was of the true

that Eden Golddust won a first award at
the Worlds Fair at Chicago as a three
year-old. Ben Thurston was placed
second.-[New York Sun.

Its value was $50. Two tiny flags, one
engraved with a g. the other with an

cake was for the ladies and which half

to whoever got the particular slice con-

A Long Lane.

One state after another goes against
woman suffrage. 1t is now Massachu-
sets which follows in the wake Of New
Hampshire and South Dakota and New
York and Kansas, all Of which have
voted against it within half year. We
are most surprised at Massachusetts,
where the women constitute large
majority Of the population, unlike in
South Dakota and Kansas, where the
men are in the ascendant, or in New
Hampshire and New York, where the
proportion of each Of the two sexes is
about equal.
Five stunning blows to women suf-
frage within a few months; blows from
the Bay State, the Empire State, the

other and from the legislature in three

The Worth That Made women.

The Worth That Made Women.
The late M. Worth Of Paris was an
Englishman who went into the dry
goods business because he hated to get
bis hands dirty. That in the beginning
was his especial talent for his calling:
In spite of this apparent effelninacy,
however, he was shrewd enough to
make himself q multimillionaire by
beating out the women in one Of their
own particular callings and gaining
worldwide fame as dressnaker.
His chief claim to distinction was
that he charged ten prices for gar
ments He beat the women dressmakers
because he had the gall to charge and
to get ten prices for garments. They
had not. But he brought the trade of
dressmaking into the realm Of art and
artists, which the women had not done
to any great extent before his time.
Now grett painters do not consider it
beneath them to design costumes for
rich ladies. Whether it is sign that
they are greater fools than other women
or have better taste it is impossible to
say, but Worth's best customers were
American ladies' He used to mention
with pride that one woman in New
York city had bought $50, 600 worth of
gowns Of him. Perhaps she was dress
maker and in the trade herself. Queen
Victoria was the only woman Of note in
Europe who never had a gown from
him. And yet with all the fuss and
feathers, the buckram, haircloth and
crinoline, the pinching in and whale
boniug of the modern woman's dress,
Worth steadily adhered in private to
the opinion that the dress of the Turkish
woman, with the full, flowing trousers
and soft loose Jacket, was the most
beautiful, comfortable and appropriate
costume the sex could wear.

palm leaf, with little wisps and tendrils
of foliage clinging to it, is so exact a
likeness of the original in size, shape
and coloring that one wonders at the
clever deception. A muskmelon, round
and futed, with its rough rind and two
or three mutilated leaves attached to
the stern, is also initiated olsverly in
shape and coloring
