Edmund Richard did not survive his
father for many years, and Edmund
then became the chief representative Of
the family. AS the lease of the Cor
ner" expired in 1865, Edmund latter
sail built the far more commodious
premises at Albert Gate, where the bust
ness has been carried on for the last
thirty years
The short speech with which he pref
aced an important sale was always a
model of it's kind, and the humorous re-
marks and smart repartees with which
he would enliven the proceedings were
always in the most perfect taste. Until
we'll past 70 years of age he never
shirked a days work that would have
severely tried many a man of so, but
during the last three or four years he
has been content to leave matters to a
great extent in the competent hands
of his eldest son, Mr.. Somerville latter
sail, though never failing to be present
at Newmarket, Doncaster, or wherever
q great sale might be taking place.

THE STAGE.

NJ. B. Curtis and his wife, Albina de
Mer, are going into the continuous
performance" business.
A. NJ. Palmer and Nat C. Goodwin
have entered into copartnership for the
production of the German comedy
called "An Absent Son."
Signora Duse will act in London after
completing her engagements in this
country, appearing in Drury Lane
theater in May.
Nat Goodwin accepted a three-act
play by Chicago writer last week. 1t
is described as d high class comedy,
with two of the scenes located on the
top Of Pixies peak.
1t is a singular fact that one Of the
marked successes of the present season
in London is an adaptation Of French
play, which, over thirty-one years ago,
failed on it's first production in Paris.
This same version of 'L'Ami des Fem
mes" called "The Squire" was pre-
sented in New York for the first time
recently at Palmer's theater by John
Drew.
Daisy Dixon, who is now playing with
Robert Hilliard in Lost Twenty-four
Hours" is to be married soon to E. Fox
Leonard, of New York, graduate Of
Cornell, and one of the purchasers of
the yacht Ethelwyn, formerly owned
by Cornelius Field, and the winner of
the international yacht race with

STERLING ELLIOTT.
The New President of tho League OF
American Wheelmen.

The New President of tho League OF
American Wheelmen.
If love of the healthy sport of cycling,
thorough knowledge Of cycling interests
and thorough knowledge of the mechan-
ical development of the wheel were
qualities and quantities desired by the
League Of American Wheelmen in their
president, they could hardly have chos-
en- better representative to their high
est office than Sterling Elliott, whose
association with bicycle affairs date
back twenty years. Mr.. Elliott was
born Michigan in 1852, and so is AZ years
old. His father was a miller. HIS
friends say that is the reason why he
takes to the grind of life so easily. AS
boy he WAS always tinkering with
water wheels and cortrivances about
the mill At 10 he learned the trade OF
carriage building. He was once asso-
ciated with Thomas i. jeffrey in the
manufacture Of one OF his inventions
a stitching machine for leather carriage
dashboards. Then he invented the only
successful machine in use for tying a
square knot in thread 1t is pamphlet
stitcher and is used in book binderies,
One of his inventions, which are various
and numerous, is the electric chrono-
graph for timing races to the sixteenth

Fig. shows the nose and mouth OF
an artistic, vivaclous, piquant, respons-
i've, mirthful nature, full of emotion,
with quick perceptions, refinement,
grace, tact, wit and longing for
amusement and beauty in all things,
A straight Grecian nose, like that in
Fig, TO- always implies aesthetic tastes,
When ii joins the forehead without any
incarnation there is unbridled willful-
ness selfishness and lack Of generosity,
The lips in repose when parted, as in
the figure, denote franlSness Of speech
and great sensitiyeness to praise or
censure.
The Roman nose, as in Fig, IL, Is
found on masterful men and women,
who control and command others in an
orderly, methodical way. These are
the aggressive, executive minds, that
dominate the masses by virtue Of their
inherent intellectual power and energy,
both in times of peace and in war. They
are the born administrators, and are
found in nearly every high public office
In estimating human character by
these natural external signs the quality
and mental grade of the individual must
always be taken into account
This is shown by the brightness and
intelligence of the eye, the fneness
and clearness of the texture of the skin
and the harmonious ensemble Of the
personality.
The larger the nose the greater the
mental power, other signs being equal
When, however the size is abnormal
it denotes inferiority of quality, as in
the vegetable world
Small noses may be found upon the
faces of very clever people, but never
upon those of the truly great,

SIR JOSEPH BARNEY.
The Noted Composer Whose Death Was
Recently Recorded.

The Noted Composer Whose Death Was
Recently Recorded.
The death Of Sir Joseph Barnby of
London deprives the official musical
world Of a most important servant of
art. Like nearly every English must
clan of consequence in England, Sir Jo-
seph began life as a chorister. He was
born at York, and it was at York Min
ster that he sang as a boy. He was
beaten i'll the competition for the Men
delssohn Scholarship by Sir Arthur Sui
livan-a strange enough meeting AS a
young man Barnby gave great promise
as composer; and it is certain that his
part-song, Sweet and Low" is an ex-
quisite thing of its kind. Later in life,
composition became absorbed in con-
Quoting and teaching. He succeeded
to the posts Of music-master of Elton,
president Of the Guildhall School of Mu-
sic, and director of the Royal Choral
society. 1t was in this latter capacity
that he was perhaps best known to the
outside world. AS a conductor he was
conscientious, firm and uncompromis-
ing. If he lacked little in inspiration
he never wanted for straightforward

A SCHEME THAT FAILED,
Abel Tried to Bring Social Status Into
Baseball.

Baseball.
In a conversation with Treasurer
Abel, Of Brooklyn, the other day, there
was revealed former scheme, that,
If it had been successful would have
placed the New York base ball club
in Mr., Abell's possession. 1t will be
remembered that in 1892 Mr.. Abel, who
was then and Is now stakeholder in
the New York club, proposed to the
other stockholders, Messrs, Talcott,
McAlpin, Spaulding and Rush, that the.
best way to rid the club Of its imam.
ctal entanglements would be to place
it in the hands of a receiver and sell
1t off at auction. Mr.. Abel made the
proposition repeatedly, but as the other
stockholders believed they could get no
reasonable price for their stock, de-
clined to entertain the proposal. NOW
for the first time, Mr.. Abel has eX'
planned why he made the above pro-
position. He declares he had formed a
syndicate composed of rich young men,
including Harry Aston Carey and VIII
liam Aston Chanler to buy the New
York club He had agreed to take 5O
per cent of the stock if the syndicate
wanted him to, but desired no ONCE.
IF Talcott G. Co. had agreed to sell
the club at auction" said Mr.. Abell'
1--WE would have snapped 1t up. But
as my proposition was not accepted, OF
course could not show my hand then,
II had known that Mr., Talcott anu
others were going to sell to Mr., Freed
man, I would have put the bid TOO
But as long as Mr.. Freedman bought
it I was ready to congratulate him,
and I want to say here that he has
made what will prove a profitable In
yestment"

Gentleness Always Saves.

Gentleness is the only power that can
save men; the law never did, and can
not, save. Prisons and houses of cor
rection do not save, but it is the hand
extended through the bars, the kind
ness and compassion shown. Persis-
tent kindness, love and gentleness and
sympthy are what claim and lead to a
better life in the end.--Rev. George e.

been member of the League of Ameri-

1894 he was president Of the national
highways committee, which sought
good roads for wheelmen. He has been
