THE ouT-To-DiNNER MAN.
Ono Who Is Not Brilliant, But Makes
Himself Useful.

Himself Useful.
NO" said the slightly cynical bach
elor to New York Tribune man, it's
not because am tremendously popu-
lar that get invitations, and / don't
to dine somewhere every night in the
week with half a dozen or more invita-
tons a week to spare. Why in the
world do you suppose they invite me?
Well, am good deal like the fellow
who is taken on ship and made to
work his passage. He pays for his voy-
age with work. work my passage at
the dinners. Oh, yes, do There's no
use in being vain about these things.
You see, I'm not married. and there's
always some young woman, or old
woman, for that matter, who has to be
taken care of. Now, a married man is
at discount at a dinner OF course,
he takes woman out to dinner, but
some man has to be provided for his
wife.
lin just useful at dinner and that's
why,I get invited. I'm not cookbook
ing and never said bright thing in
my life. but can talk streak of stuff
and nonsense that is necessary to keep
dinner going. I'm good natured and
aniable. l like everybody, and SO 1
get along comfortably with my neigh
bors. In It mild sort of way, l sup:

a good laugher. l la1.;h at all the

Of them that are not SO good. get in
my own little jokes. when the, time
comes, and 81, we row along through
the dinner, w or]sing my passage and
NV hostess smiling approval on me.
''Oh, no. it's not u bit damaging to
my vanity. simply know it's SO, and
accept it cheerfnlly. l can't dance for

strong point is dinner, and SO I'm
wanted there, and not at a dance. 1t

JOY the dinner. Having lot of pretty
women around the table, and listening
to them, and talking to them is lots
more fun than sitting alone in club,
with only a lot of ghostlike walters TO
amuse YOU. It's a perfectly fair
bargain. l talk and am sweet
tempered for my ferriage, and get on
the ferry a good dinner and enjoyable

and as for the honor Of the thing and
all that, there's no more honor in my

THIS. WAS a SMART CAT.
How He Convinced Himself That 1t Was
His Own Image.

How He Convinced Himself That 1t Was
His Own Image.
The late DR.. Romanes, in his "Ani-
NAL Intelligence gives two stories of
cats. which, Oh seeing their own rehec-
ton IN a looking glass, convinced them
selves that the reelection was an illu-
sion. In the case of very intelligent
cat of mine, he went, think, a step be-
yond this-namely, he satisfied himself
that it was in some way his own image
Even if my deduction is wrong, the first
part of his proceedings was so singularly
like those in DR.. Komanes' accounts,
that it seems as though it were a uni
form law of cat nature to act in this
way, and so far it may not be alto
gether uninteresting.
Il put the cat on a table, in front Of
a small toilet mirror. After looking at
his reflection for short while, he went
behind the glass; then he returned to
his seat in front, and again watched it
attentively. After few moments he
rapidly dashed behind it. He again re-
turned to his seat in front Of the glass,
and, while retaining his seat and keep
ing his eyes fixed on the image, he
struck about behind the glass with his
paw in different directions.
''His next action was, fancy, sug-
gested by seeing the image apparently
strike with it's paw also. Keeping his
seat and retaining his eye fixed on the
image, he proceeded to if l may use
the word) posture in front of the glass.
He raised his paws alternately, licked
them, touched the glass, moved his
head, etc. have tried to simply de-
scribe facts, and as far as possible avoid
drawing conclusions.

A party Of tourists was being shown
over the British museum, and in one Of
the rooms the keeper pointed out a col

been recently dug up at Herculaneum.

with a look of incredulity. 'Dug up
out of the ground?" Certainly, sir.
Perhaps some pains have been taken in
cleaning them, but otherwise they were
found just as you see Them The wise
man turned to his companions and said,
with knowing shake Of his head: 'sHe
may say what he likes, but he shall
never persuade me that they dug up

"a Decorated Flower Seller.

A well-known character in Paris is an
old woman, whose breast is literally
covered with crosses and decorations,
and who is now peacefully engaged as
flower seller. Her name is Jean Nom
more, and her honors were gained in
the Crimea, at Rome. Gravelotte and at
Orleans. On one occasion she rendered
valuable service to her country by swal-
loving military dispatch Of great i'm
portance, and so prevented its falling
into the hands Of the enemy. A woman
who has swallowed so much for her
country with dispatch should not be al
lowed to sup sorrow in her old age.

Bumps on the Earth.

The alarming theories propounded
by scientists make one sit up at first
glance. For example, M. de Lapparent
read paper before the scientific con-
gress at Paris the other day in which
he labored to prove that the mountains
Of the earth are decreasing in size. and
that they will ultimately vanish alto
gether. The tremendous friction of the
atmosphere is wearing them away.
The Alps. he said, exemplifed the
youth, the Pyrenees the maturity, the
mountains Of Provence the declining
years and the central plateau Of France
the death and dissolution of naountain
ranges. But don't worry. Four or five
hundred thousand years must slip by
before the bumps on the earth 8 surface
are RACED. s

connEcTIcuT's Gypsy PRINCE
He Makes Regular Horse Trading Tour
of the Country.

of the Country.
For over forty years a family of gyP-
sizes have been residents of this state.
At the present time one OF them claims
to be the head of the gypsies in this
country, says Bridgeport correspon-
dent of the New York Sun. He is
Prince William and lives with his fam
ily near East Hartford. The East Hart
ford branch is the main branch OF the
family. All the male members of the
family are born horse traders and are
known all over New England as upright
and honest business men. Attached to
their residence at East Hartford are
stables which in winter are always
filed with choice horses. One OF the
interesting sights at the barn are the
wagons in which Prince William and
family go off on their annual trips.
These wagons cost from one thousand
to twenty five hundred dollars each.
There are branches of the family in
New Haven and also in this city, and
when one of these trips about the coun-
try takes place the other branches join
it. The trips are usually begun about
the list of August and sometimes ex-
tend into the winter months, the family
travelling in the south when cold
weather arrives in New England. The
family lately returned from trip
which was begun last August. On
these trips spare horses are taken along
to trade. This means a cayalcade of
dozen gorgeous wagons and about one
hundred horses. The entire family,
men, women and children, 60 along.
The party keep together, travelling by
easy stages, about twenty miles a day
being considered u good journey. When
hurried they can make forty miles
day. The place selected for the nights
resting place is usually a grove. There
the wagons are drawn up in a circle,
the fires lighted and supper prepared.
After the evening meal the entire fam
lily gather around Prince Williams tent
or wagon and the affairs of the family
are discussed. A watchman patrols the
camp all night to guard the horses.
