DRIVERS ON LONDON STREETS.

AS a rule, the carelessness of the drlv-
er varies somewhat in proportion to the
invulnerability of the vehicle that ne
drives. The driver of the hanson cab,
though he often outrivals Jehu in the
speed and fury of his driving, is always
on the alert and rarely fails TO pull up
his horse in midcareer and avoid the col
lision which threatens him. To travel
swiftly. to cut in and out of slower car
riages, is the life of the hanson We en-
gage it for that purpose and its driver
seldom diSappointS US. But the hanson
is an extremely vulnerable vehicle; even
in collision with the four-wheeler it Will
surely fare the worse. Hence il comes
about that the driver of hanson keeps
a sharp lookout for obstacles and pre-
fers pulling his horse on his launches TO
running over even the innocent foot pas
Senger.
1t is curious that, with all their speed,
both hansoms and butchers carts-by far
the swiftest of the wheeled deniZenS OF
our streets-have fewer accidents laid 10
their account than their slower fellows
The omnibus driver is also of careful
nature He too, conducts a carriage that
cannot go into action with impunity. The
omnibus can afford to bully the hanson
or the brougham but it dare not JoStle
the van of its own size. And as regards
foot passengers, the driver has a natural
tenderness toward an unprotected race
which supplies him with fares. The
Spectator.

THE cows OF DELHI.

The crowded streets of Indian cities
present manifold attractions, but the
study of native life and manners in
Delhi is frequently interrupted by the
gray herds of Brahmini cows. which
roam about at their will, with the
evident conviction invariably enter
tanned by these pampered animals that
their own Importance far exceeds that
of the community which they incOn-
venience by their presence.
An overturned stall witnesses to the
self-aSSertion of the sacred kline, and
as our carriage disperses g. blockade
of sleek backs and interlacing horns,
an indignant member of the scattered
conclave wreaks vengeance on the bat
tered chariot by pushing it along with
these unnatural weapons to the end
of the street. The ''raison d'etre'' Of the
assembled cows is found in the pres
ence of a great Hindu temple, where
a glimpse of glittering images in fret
ted shrines is unwillingly granted to
the unbelievers. whose feet are for
hidden to tread the sacred courts OF
the Brahmin sanctuary.-All the Year

NOT QUITE RIGHT.

No man is a hero to his valet, and
perhaps no poet to his baker. He lives
in Putney, and almost every day he
walks a few miles to Wimbledon, and
goes to a cake shop there, where he
buys cakes to give to little group of
poor children, who have learned to look
forward to this frequent treat. Some
one who knew the poet by sight said
to the shopkeeper: do you know who
this gentleman who buys so many
cakes of you is?''
ooh. he's poor gentleman who is
not quite right in his head. He's al

hands Of her lawyers, and told them to
save her. But what was that against the
power and influence Of the Comstock gold
kings and the $4,000 that Jimmy. Hollo-
ways estate and his friends furnished the
prosecution? James G.. Fair gave one
check for $4,000 TO procure the services OF
a famous criminal lawyer in San Francis
co in making the final plea for the prose-
cutiOn at the trial.
No such other trial as that of Belle Brue
has been known west of the Rockies. 1t
lasted for weeks, although the facts were
so plain that ordinarily it would have
been tried and finished in three or four
days. There were eleven lawyers inter-
eSted, among them Senator w. NJ. Stewart
and Hall McAllister, and the events of
the trial We're on every ones lips all over
Nevada and central California. In the end
she was convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. She succeeded in getting a new
trial, but the sentence for twenty-seven
years was the best that could be procured
for her even then. So she put her money
or the little she had left-in the bank
and went down to the penitentiary in
Carson city with a burden that would
have crushed a weaker woman. She faith
fully served the last day of IL, barring the
time allowed for good behavior, for
pardon was refused her over and over
again.
The End.
When her prison life was over she went
back to Reno, that had grown from
rough, rollicking town, where golden ca
gjeS were earned by common laboring men
in one day, to quiet progressive modern
town of steady habits and legitimate bus
mess. She remained six months in Reno,
living on the money her bankers turned
over to her. She became a member of a
prominent church in Reno. and by word
and deed led a consistent Christian life
Some of the millionaires in California who
had had some hand in the trial of Belle
Brue for murder quietly made UP a purse
for her about two years ago. 1t was prob
ably at that time that ex-senator Fair
sent the $1,000 to her. But what became
of the woman no one in Nevada knows.
She went east on an overland train one
day about two years ago. It is believed
she is living in retirement somewhere in
the east, probably in southern Illinois.

like a hydra, get over a 9-foOt wall and
