Stories of Absent-Mindcdness.

From the Spectator.
The other day, before large party in
country house, intent only on making an
early start agreeable for his departing
guest a genial host observed: Il am very
sorry to find that no one else is leaving by
the early train"
In my Balliol days it was said that very
absent-minded undergraduate, going for
walk with Jowett, complained of feeling
weak and unwell. Jowett asked him what
he had eaten that day. He thought for
moment, and then said he could not re-
member of having eaten anything but two
walnuts. Jowett burst out laughing.
Once, some salt having been accidentally
spilled on dinner table, an eccentric Lam
cashire gentleman is said to have made
haste to repair the mischief by pouring
some port wine over 1t! The same mental
absentee $50 to call him) is, or was, con-
china having been raised at a dinner party,
it is reported that, forgetting that his plate
was full Of soup, he turned 1t upside down,
In order to look at the mark underneath.
From these doubtful anecdotes pass on
to one or two which I can give on good
authority. The late Rev. W. E. jeff told
me that his brother, the principal of Kings
College now chiefly remembered as the
courteous adversary, or perhaps the perse-
cuteur malgre 1ui. of Maurice), once, when
giving a dinner party, hired a butler, who
was quite new to the work. The poor man,
after drawing for the first time the cork
of champagne bottle, lost his head so
completely that he poured part Tor the
whole Of the contents down ladys back.
Another of Mr.. Jelf's numerous anecdotes
may be mentioned l was reading with him
at his beautiful place between Dolgelly and
yarmouth. He assured me that raw
Welsh servant once announced to him
some visitors as them people as lives on
the other side of the water"

Bike or Bicycle,

From Harpers Weekly.
There is a good deal of opposition to the
word bike" Sundry correspondents Of the
Sun have entreated that journal to frown
upon it. The Sun does not dr6wn as yet,
but the Tribune does, going even so far as
to declare that bike and eIeetrocute are
about the worst travesties on words that
ever were foisted upon a1lopg- suffering
public" Electrocute is thoToughly bad
word. and the only reason It exists at all
is that there is no single reputable word
which expresses the infliction of capital
punishment by electricity" "Bike" is a
piece of boisterous slang, but 1t may be
said for it that at least it is honest, and
makes no pretense to elegance, whereas
does make a pretense at elegance, or at
least at responsibility. 1t is, better to say
bike" and be aware that you are using
suppose yourself to be speaking valid En-
glish.

Knew the Safest Place.
nm tho Dundee News

During the training of the militia in
Campbcltown, company was ordered off
for ball firing, including gamekeeper from
Amnamurchan, who was singled out as
marker. The sergeant took up the field
glass to see if all was ready, when to his
horror he saw the marker standing in front
of the target. Thinking the man insane
the sergeant at once fastened to the res
cue and in an authoritative voice demand
ed the meaning of such reckless conduct,
at the same time describing the marker
as a fool. I'm no sic a fool as you think"
was the retort. II ken the safest place

MIR. kERBEY,s TROUBLES.
Still Further Testimony in the Cas-
PrOmiHeJ.

Still Further Testimony in the Case
Promised.
The case Of ]. o. Kerbey at one time
consul at Rio Janelro, but now in the tolls
of the law under the charge of vagrancy,
was continued in the Police Court this af-
ternoon.
Monday the proprietor Of the Fredonia
told of his skipping his board bill at that
hotel. Today the proprietor of the hotel at
Colonial Beach took the stand and stated
that he left there last month without pay
ing his bill When he met Kerbey on the
boat coming up the river he spoke to him
about 1t, and Kerbey gave him note for
SO. On the note he gave his city address
as 1889 18th street, but on investigation it
appeared that there was no such house.
Kerbey's lawyer claimed that this was
but one of thousand cases with which
Washington people are familiar. The man
was formerly an employe of the govern
ment, but is now out Of work. He is in
straitened circumstances at the present
time, but there was no evidence to show
that he was a criminal or had acted from
any criminal motives. He was not vaS,
and plenty of people in this town could tes-
tify that he was q respectable man.
Judge kimball stated that there was
every reason to believe that Kerbey is a
regular hotel and boarding house beat; but
on the statement of Mr.. Mullowney that
still, further evidence could be produced the
case was continued until tomorrow.

W. Calvin Chase was introduced to the
conference, and all the members arose and
greeted him. Mr.. Chase said he had been
highly gratified at the discussion he had
heard. He desired to call to their atten-
ton the importance in the education Of
colored youth of paper edited by one Of
their own race. Most colored people, If
they took any paper, preferred to read one
published by those who were not of them.
If, he said, all were so fortunate as to take
such a paper as The Washington Star,
which was friendly to the negro race, all
would be well. But the colored people es-
pecally needed daily press as strong as
the colored people could make it, as strong
as the pulpit is in its influence. He urged
greater race pride. more thorough self-re-
spect and there would follow greater power
and influence.
DR.. Jenifer. responding to Mr.. Chase's
remarks, said the press in general today

But, however weary the great tenor may be, he has rest and recreation to look forward to such as not one man in 100000 can enjoy. Few of the vast army of his admirers know that be owns a castle and country estate in Europe which meets all the require ments of an artists dream. Adelina Patti's Craig-y-Eos is a pretty place in Wales, Sarah Bernhardt's island in the Mediterranean is quite picturesque, and Mrs. Langtry's ranch in California is in the garden of the Golden Gate; butnone of these can compare for mo- ment with beautiful BoroVno, the home of Jean de Reszle, in Russian Poland In size alone it overshadows all the rest put together. and in beauty it is simply unapproachable.
 The chateau and surrounding eoun- try comprise about 16,00O acres. To give an adequate idea of the extent of the estate, it need only be stated that were Borovno cut up into sections it would make 20 Central parks of the same size and beauty as that in the great American metropolis.
 The home of the De Reszkes is situ- ated in Russian Poland, about five hours ride south of Warsaw, in one Of the most beautiful and picturesque parts of that country. The chateau proper was built in the time of Louis K, and stands in the center of beau tiful garden. Iii appearance it is some what quaint, being a mixture of French and Russian architecture. The walls are of stone, and are of great thickness, making them very comfort able in warm weather, and easy to heat in the winter.
 On entering the door beneath the massive pillars of a semi-circular fa- cade, one finds himself in a square hall-

lore to equip several tracks. Here also, are English grooms to train and look after the thoroughbreds, assisted by Polish stable boys. Not few of the horses are named after the charae- ters in the favorite operas of the great tenor, one of them being "Kundry," the winner of the St. Petersburg derby The winnings of the stable in 1892 were over thirty thousand dollars.
 When a visitor to the De Reszkes' home passes through the streets of Boroyno, the men, women and ehil- dren are accustomed to advance and kiss his hand. This rather disagree able mode of salutation is repeated every time peasant is encountered, and the visitor must graciously submit to several hundred osculatory courtesfes in the course of a day. Both men and women work in the fields, and one sex seemingly aeeomphshes as much as the ether.
 The visitor to Borovno has every kind of leisuge and sport that his heart could wish. It may be interesting to mention the programme that is gen orally observed. There are four meals in the course of the 24 hours, so that no one need go to bed hungry Coffee is served in the rooms at about half past seven in the morning, and then the horses are brought to the door. The visitor is then given one of the most de- lightful drives imaginable over hill and dale, through forest and field, along laughing brooks and little lakes, until he imagines that he is on the confines of paradise, so beautiful is the coun- try. The ride is finished by nine o'clock, when breakfast is served.
 Directly in front of the house is the oval" which extends about 200 feet towards the gate, and on this track

On the right of the chateau proper, making a courtyard, are the bachelor quarters used by Jean and Edouard and their friends; directly opposite are the servants quarters, where some sixty or more attendants on the place are fed and housed.
 In the rear of the chateau facing the west are several acres of kitchen gar den,p and beyond this is huge brick wall which surrounds the entire house and garden. Passing through the gate, one finds before him a low, fiat open under thorough cultivation. A son of Erin would imagine that he was in "Ould Ireland" at the sight of ten thou sand acres in potatoes. These Rus sian tubers are used by brandy fac tory on the premises for making aqua vitae
 Beyond the big potato field is su- perb forest of oak and chestnut trees. This Jean de Reszke's hunting pre- serve. Here is found small game of every description, as we'll as deer in plenty. flares and cartridges are to be found among the potato vines, and make excellent shooting.
 Beyond this strip of forest of about thousand acres one comes upon the pet folly of the great tenor-his stock farm. Here are to be found racing horses ga-
