Quite a number of horsemen express
themselves as being pleased at the idea
of two such prominent owners as August
Belmont and NJ. +. Dwyer clashing on
the selling race question. There is alto
gether too much babying regarding the
bidding up or claiming of horses in SELL
ing races and 1t is time for horsemen to
act like men. NJ. F. Dwyer has had a
picnic for years and must have milked
the ring to the tune OF at least half a
million dollars where he had no chance
to lose unless his horses dropped dead.
But Mr.. Dwyer is not the only prominent
owner who has SKINNED the ring with
high class horses in selling races. David
Gideon has for the last eight years or
more milked the ring most beautifully,
his favorite game being to run high class
2-year-olds in selling races and getting
from even money to s and to / against

almost every good colt Gideon has owned
has had to go through the selling race

clever trainer must have done. In the

out of their place, but everybody knew
so. wherein he is, II anything, less of an
offender than Mr. Gideon. II horsemen

a VICTIM TO ETIQUETTE.
An Artists Uncomfortable Experience at
a Royal banquet In Korea.


The rigid etiquette which prevails in
Korea as to ceremonious banquets is in
convenient for strangers, whose un-
trained appetites are scarcely up to the
Korean standard An artist, making a
stay in Seoul was b;ddcn to royal
feast at the kings palace, to his mingled
joy and despair Ignorant Ct native Gus
toms, he appealed to Mr.. g., the Eng
lish consul, to guido him through the
ordeal The one thing impressed upon
him was this: LIT is IL great insult to re-
fuse what is offered you at table and a
greater insult not to cat all that is on
your plate "
We all sat down gayly, and tho feast
began. All the products of the country
seemed to have been cooked ard put be-
fore me, including meats, fish, honey,
sweets, vegetables and sauces, Of which,
mind you, we had to eat mountain"

puppy state, were also there and We're
much appreciated by my princely enter

however, not being provided with an
ever expanding digestive apparatus, like
my friends of Chosen, really felt us if
l were suifocating
raised my eyes plcadingly to Mr.. G.,
but he shook his head sternly. The serv-
ants, seeing me hesitate, piled me bus
lily with pot;stoes, barley, millet and at
least half bushel of beans.
After vainly praying for courage and
dexterity to slide the food under the
table made desperate inroads upon the
heaped up vegetables. Once again l
rolled my eyes in dumb entreaty toward
the consul, who once again shook his
head, this time with sardonic grin
which made me determine to get through
the feast somehow, but in silence.
After this was treated to lily bulbs
and radishcs dipped in the vilest Of
sauces, besides large portion of a pup
py pig roasted and fruit in profusion,
with foreign and native wines. At
length, when 1 felt that with the next
mouthful should groan aloud, ,e.e end
was reached. That unhappy meal began
at noon and was brought to close at
7p m.
To those who appreciate the pleasure
of eating, let me recommend q royal

The First Wills.

Wills were at first oral, as were also
gifts of lands, and We're only morally
binding on the survivors. Origen and
other fathers Of the early church cred
tied Noah with having made a will, and
in the fourth century the bishop of
Brescia declared all those heretical who
denied Noah's division of the world to
his three SONS by will. The oldest known
wills are those of Egypt. Both oral and
written wills not infrequently contained
imprecations on those who should neg
lect thep.
The earliest written will in existence
is that of Sennacherib, which was found
in the royal library of Konyunjik
There is !, great sameness about our own
royal wills. They mainly relate to beds,

gold and silver cups and payments for

"Amusia, or loss of the musical fac

Edgren of Stockh olm. The disease
proves to be strictly analogous to
aphasia, the loss of speech, which may
or may not accompany it. Two general
forms are recognized-the sensory form,
where tones cannot be appreciated by
the ear or notes read by the eye, and
the motor form, in which the patient
cannot sing, play or write notes. Bal
let places the expression of music bo-
tween the emotional and tho artificial
or verbal language. Music is less COM
plicated and earlier appreciated than
speech. Many children sing before they
speak, and Reyer has told of child of
