Carriages OF Every Style which Ell Queen
ViotOria's Stables.
When one Of her majesty'a equerries ex-
Rmined a short time back the queens
coachhOuses, he found them inconvenient-
ly filled with carriages which had long
since fallen into desuetude. was shown a
low hung char-a-bano for pair Of horses,
made under the special direction Of her
majesty and the prince consort. In par
ticular the char-a-banc, which is lightly
rooted somewhat after the fashion Of the
American pleasure carriage known as q
''rockaway," is fitted with handsome cur
tains Of light gray hue. Messrs. Hoopers'
father did not exactly understand the
fabric Of the curtains which he was to sup
ply, whereupon the prince smilingly in
formed him that the queen would supply
him with the information which he de-
sired
Her majesty thereupon told him that the
stuff was Irish poplin, and it could be pro
cured only at a particular mercer's at the
west end. She even condescended to cut
of a tab from her own dress, which hap
pened to be made Of the pOplin in question,
and lent it to Mr.. Hooper so that he might
match the pattern and the color. It was in
this chaE-a-banc that the queen and the
prince consOrt were accustomed to drive,
accompanied by the members Of their rap
idly increasing young family, and for the
convenience of the small royal folks the
vehicle was provided on both sides and at
many intervals of its length with q multi
plicity OF steps, which artfully folded up
and could be taken down from all kinds of
unexpected places. Then I enjoyed q
glimpse of a much more distantpast. This
was a miniature double bodied coach or
''vis-a-vis," probably made for Queen Char
lotte, consort of George Ill The visa

by hand, like the French ''brouette, butit

by her majesty when in delicate health.

80 years ago not only by members of the
royal family, but by the nobility and gen

these high hung charicts, which seem prao

All these carriages, which have been pur- |

SOUTHERN SONGS.
Number Of FaVorites That Were Writ
ten BY Northern Composers.

A Number Of Favorites That Were Writ
ten BY Northern Composers.
"Dlxie's Land" which is really the
proper name OF the song, was written by
Dan Emmett in 1s43. He was one of the
original four Of Bryant's celebrated min
strels, who played that year IN the old
Park theater In Park row, in New York
city and opposite the present city hall.
The other members OF the noted four
were Dick Pelham, Billie WhitlOck and
Joe Sweeney. Emmett is the only one Of
the four now living He has resided for a
number Of years at Mount Vernon and Oc-
cupies a small house in that town. He has
for some time drawn a moderate weekly
allowance from the Actors fund, and the
money thus received has been the chief
source Of support.
"Dixie" is as lively and popular an air
today as it ever was, and its reputation is
not confined to the American continent.
It is played in Europe and ranks with the
finest Of the simple airs in touching the
emotions of the people, and wherever it IS
played by q big, strong band the auditors
cannot help keeping time TO tho music. 1t
is well known in all the capitals Of Eu-
rope and never fails to awaken vigorous
applause.
Nine-tenths Of the best songs known as
southern melodies were written by north
ern men, and the southern soldiers during
the war were keen enough to soize Dixie"
and appropriate it as their most captivat-
ing air. Foster, an Ohio man, wrote more
Of the genuinely beautiful plantation
songs than any man in his time, his three
best compositions being "Old Folks at
Home, " " Ny Old kentucky Home, Good
Night" and Massa's In de Cold, Cold
Ground" Foster, liks all northern men
who have written similar songs, did not
understand thoroughly the negro dialect
but his ideas were all right, and his com
positions were full Of sentiment and
pathos OF all the southern dialect song
writers VIII S. Hays of Kentucky easily
takes first rank. His 'Roll Out-Heave
Dat Cotton, a river steamboat song, Is
perhaps his most clever effort.
Foster fell into the error OF making the
negro say "massa" instead Of "marster. ="
Some Of the old slaves brought directly
from Africa doubtless pronounced the
word "massa, " and perhaps a small per-
oentage Of tlse coast negroes may have
done so, but the average darky says mars
ter with broad accent, and his abbrevi-
alton IN tho days OF slavery was always
mars" In his Texas Steer" Hoyt has
also fallen into the samo error.
In his song Of "Dixie's Land" Emmett
proved that be was quite familiar with
the negro dialeot. 1t was very hastily
and was gotten up within three
days to be tried at aperformance at which
Emmett was to do one Of his popular walk
arounds. That was his great act in his
palmy, prosperous days, when he was so
we'll known to the lovers Of minstrelsy.
Emmett was never a performer on the ban !

The First Hairdresssr.

The first appearance in modern Europe
Of the male hairdresser was not until the
eighteenth century when Legros, Frederic
and Leonard made their calling as famous
as Vattel OF Soyer did theirs. Legros, in
deed, began life as cook and opened an
academy for hairdressers, in which he
based his teaching upon the proportion Of
the head and the style Of the face till In
1895 he published his great work on
"L'Art dc Ia Couture des Danes Fran
caises, " which specified as many ways OF
dressing the hair as the artist OF the other
line discovered for the cooking Of eggs
The 800 fashions Of the wife Of Marcus
Aurelius were outdone, and before the end

The First Tron storea.

One Of the very first attempts at max
ing an iron stove was by Count or Cardi-
nal PolignRo Of France early in the eight
eenth century. The results OF his efforts
were simply iron ireplaces, constructed
with hollow backs, hearths and iron
jambs The only improvement it showed
over the old fireplace was slight saving
Of heat In the year 1916 DR.. Desaugliers
Of London improved the POlignao fire
places to such an extent that they could be
used for burning coal as we'll as wood.
DR.. Franklin's stove, invented in the
year 1745, was a great improvement on
everything IN the stove line that had pre-
ceded It. The principles upon which It
was constructed were similar TO the air
tight stoves introduced many years later,
Indeed it is believed that had Il been pos
sible at that time for founders to make
tight fitting castings the franklin expert
ment would have been air tight. About
the year 1776-there Is some dispute about
the exact date-Dr Franklin improved
his stove so as TO make 1t suitable for the
consumption OF common bituminous coal,
In 1855 Benjamin Thompson Count
Rumford) made several Improvements
on Franklin's designs. In 1888 J. L. Mott
made the first stove that would burn an

Professor Swineburn Is now engaged
upon some Interesting experiments oalcu-
lated to establish standard Of electrical
resistance Of the individuals Of the human
family according to temperament, COM
plexion, race, etc. The data so far de-
duced are necessarily crude and Inaccurate,
and It is not claimed that anything Is
known respecting the difference in the
electrical resistance Of representatives Of
the various races OF man nor Of individ
uals of various temperaments, but IL has
been shown that there Is a wide range Of
resistiye power in the various subjects.
A summary of the results on 500 subjects
tested indicates that the resistance to
continuous current will vary from 8, s,820
TO 10, 900 volts; also that there is q great
difference In power Of resistance, varying

A PustulOus literature.

Another influence that has warred
against the marriage relation in this
country has been a pustulous literature,
with its millions of sheets every week
ohoked with stories Of domestic wrongs
and infdelities and massaores and out
ragec until it is a wonder to me that
there are any deoenoies OF any common
sense left on the subject of marriage. One
half of the neWsstands Of all our cities
reeking with the filth.
"Now, - say some, I'VE admit all these
svils, and the only way to clear them out
or correct them is by easy divorce. Well,
before we yield to that CRY let us find out
how easy it is now.
! have looked over the laws OF all the
states, and find chat while in some states
It is easier than in Others in every state It
is easy. The state of Illinois, through It's
legislature, recites long list Of proper
causes for divorce and then closes up by
giving to the courts the right to make q
decree Of divorce in any case where they
deem 1t expedient. After that sou are not
surprised at the announcement that in
one county Of the state Of Illinois in one
year there were s3S divorces. II you want
to know how easy it is, you have only to
look over the records of the states. In the
city Of San Francisco 1888 divorces in one
year. and in 20 years IN New England e0,
600. Is that not easy enoughg
II the same ratio rontinue-the ratio Of
multiplied divorce and multiplied causes
Of divorce--we are not far from the time
when our courts will have to set apart
whole days for application, and all you
will have to prove against man will be
that he left his newspaper In the middle
Of the floor, and all you win have to prove
