Smart Habits.
AS to her own outfit, the woman who
hunts, should understand that she must
never be badly turned out, and each
season, if there has been any decided
change in styles, a wholly new habit
must be ordered.
There is a riding dress, a rather new
invention, which, in case of an accident,
or "cropper," releases itself and thus
the rider is saved from the danger of
being hung up or dragged by her skirt
on a runaway horse.

A PRICELESS CLOCK.
Mrs. Bates of minneapolis Has One
with History.


Somewhere in the neighborhood OF
1890 there was a small clock factory,
owned and operated in Winchester,
Conn, by a man named r. Whiting.
Ihe wheels and all the works IN the
clocks were made of wood, and the
weights were tin cans filed with sand
Several young girls were employed in
the factory, painting dials and decor
ating the cases of the big seven-foot
grandfather timepieces. When Mr..
Whiting had made a large number OF
these clocks he would load up a wagon
and start on his travels.
The fast freight lines were at that
time still unknown, and the COM
mercial traveller had not yet invaded
the land. Whiting would mount his
wagon and travel up and down the
land selling his clocks. In 1910 he took
the last load and started for New
Orleans No word was received from
him until 1872, when a letter came
from a hotel keeper in Ohio stating
that Whiting had come there and was
taken sick and died, and that there
was just money enough on his person
to pay the funeral expenses. The
story of the hotel keeper was not be-
lieved by the relatives of Whiting, as
he was known to have collected a
large sum of money and was supposed
to have about $1,000 on him when he
died. There being no railroads then
and travel to a distant place like
Ohio Icing difficult undertaking, moth
Ing was done by the relatives in re-
gard to TIE matter. Color was given
to their suspicious afterwards, how
ever, from the fact that the hotel
keeper was hanged for killing a guest
of his hostelry for his money.
Several years ago Mrs. Bates, a
granddaughter of Whiting, came to
Minneapolis to live. She esta blished a
residence in the southern part of the
city, and one day when at a grocery
store, she found the grocer tinkering
with an old clock. She noticed the
name R. Whiting on the dial, and
said: why, that's my grandfather
clock. The grocer laughed and said:
Yes, its old enough to be anybody's
clock. Mrs. Bates told him that she
meant her own grandfather, however
and went home to tell her mother and
husband about her find. They made
deal with the grocer, and finally the
old clock, after nearly 100 years, came
into the possession of the descendants
Of the man who made it. The clock
was seen by the Tribune yesterday
in repair shop in the bank of Min
neapolis building, where the clock
maker who is repairing it told its his
tory as he had heard it from the own
ers. The clock stands about seven feet
high, and the works are made entirely
of wood 1t is encased in a mahogany
cabinet, inside of which two tin cans
filled with the same sand that was
placed in them a century ago, still
swing as the weights. The dial isl
delicately painted and decorated I'M
gut. AT the top are many Masonic
emolems. The clock and its history
are very interesting to those who are
the descendants Of its maker. and it
would take many times the amount
they paid the grocer for it to get if
from them.-Minneapolis Tribune.

Entertaining the Sporting Set.
Sometimes eight or ten miles are
covered by the hunt and when the
riders return to the club house they
are glad to find tea prepared FOR them.
At the Richmond County club,
Staten Island, tea is frequently >serv-
ed TO the members of the hunt, about
forty mounts in all. When a dance
is given the ballroom is splendidly
decorated with flowers and the white,
red and green colors of the club.
The men appear in their hunting
costumes, but the ladies lay aside
their severe trappings for more fes-
tive attire.
For the cotillion, the favors are

Nothing was quite good enough for

Stewart and bob-tailed Tartar was al

ments that put everybody in a happy
frame of mind.
Tartar never just relished the be-
ginning of a battle after his Bull Run
experience. He didn't try to sulk, grab
a root or dodge behind g tree. but he
did a good deal of prancing, especially
when shells and solid shot shrieked and
whistled in his immediate vicinity, but
after a few minutes he seemed to be
as much interested in what was going
on as anyone in the command.

HAPPENINGS IN WAR TIME.

Major James Stewart, of Carthage,
o., retired regular, who commanded
battery B, Fourth artillery talks about
two occasions when he was shocked
and saddened. His horse, Tartar, was
I of blooded stock. and horse and master
were much attached to each other. At
the second Bull Run battle a solid
shot plowed through the rumps of the
high-strung Tartar, gouging out
pounds of flesh and cutting off his tail
snug to the body. The wounded ami
NAL frisked about quite briskly for
minute and then settled down and
carried his rider till the battle lulled,
seeming to know that the commander
could not spare time in that iron and
leaden hail, to change horses. He had
bled to weakness, but quickly obeyed
every summons of the rein. When
Stewart dismounted and for the first
time saw the CHASTITY wound, he was,
to use his own language, las shocked
as if I'd lost an arm" He supposed
that his favorlte riding horse would die
or have to be killed. When next morn
ing. Tartar slowly and with a wobbly
gait walked to his master while he
was slipping coffee and munching hard
tack and raw pork. and gently laid his
head upon his shoulder and groaned,
the artilleryman put his arms about
his neck and kissed the brown name.
'T can't kill him." said stewart; I'VE
will leave him here to die in his own
way and time"
When battery B and the other troops
moved out on the retreat to Centerville
the major Ghen lieutenanD, on
new animal, took a fearful glance at
his distressed war horse, said Good
bye, Tartar" and passed on in silence.
Between sundoWn and dark that night
Tartar, jaded and broken down, stray
gled into camp and sought out his
master as if to report for duty. He
was tenderly petted and given an extra
feed. of oats. The next morning Stew

examined, and never was a boy glad
