A writer III To-day says: Il was
chatting the other day with a we'll
known writer, who told me some inter
esting news about the late R. L. Ste
venson. 1t is commonly supposed that
Stevenson was an ardent literary sports
man who pursued his game of style on
little oatmeal. The fact is that, being
the only--and delicate-child of his ia.
ther, tolerably wealthy engineer, he
had very substantial allowance, which
was interrupted during that short period
(about 1879-60) when he persisted
against the parental prohibition in going
to America On his return, married and
very i'll, his father became reconciled to
him and allowed him considerably
more than q thousand a year. Something
of this must be apparent to those who
are competent to consider the particular
kind of thing which constitutes the
Stevensonian style. 1t is plain that it
could not be produced by man who
had to write for his living. In Steven
SON. early days Of essay writing for The
Cornhill an essay would cost him a

by the game black stallion Joe I'atchen, in

beginning ot the surprise that was to fol

the stretch neck and neck, after having pa
ced the middle half in minute. Jack Cur

push the black whirlwind under the wire
and he won by the shortest kind of nose in

easier for the black stallion, although he
won by less than length each time 1t was
the fastest four heat race ever paced. The
last heat in 2.O5 IA was the fastest fourth
heat ever paced. . At the Old Orchard kite
