A ATTIC.
Quaint Combination Of Greenery and nss-
merry Above the City.


One Of the queerest places In New
York can be found in what looks, from
the street, to he u funny little gable
rooted house psrched jauntily ON n
sorner Of tho roof Of tho Windormcre,
on Fifty-scventh street. 1t is a consorva.
tory and observatory in one, u miniature
roof garden, the den Of an attic philos-
opher, Henry S. Goodale, whose some
what celebrated daughters, Elaine and
Dora, evidently got from him their
poetic strain.
The attic Is reached by q steep nau.
teal flight Of steps leading up through
a small square hatchway straight into u
wonderful grecnery Of bloom, n SING.
gerry of comfort, likewise a hcnncry,
consisting of one fine brown Leghorn
fowl and o single fluffy, yellow chick,
and q dovecot. where there are softly
whirring wings. 1t is u charming bit Of
Arcadia, high above the ceaseless roar
and heartbeat Of n great city, which
under its potent spell seems unreal and
evanescent, like the u%ndulating, elliptic
al rings Of smoke that float past the
"attic" windows The attic is all win
dows, except the floor, roof and tho sim
pie matched board dado. The little room
is q symphony in green; the floor liz car.
peted with dull green denim the gablcd
roof is covered with burlaps of tho Same
hue; q green wicker couch is cushioned
In green yachting cloth; u broad green
and white striped awning shades the
sunny sides Of the little house; all the
carelessly strewn cushions, though OF
varying designs and materials, are OF
the same general hue, and green figured
denim draperies on slender brass rods
hang ready to exclude tho whole outside
world il it is desired.
But it is the window gardens that
give the greatest charm to tho place.
Long, deep boxes of country earth and
loan give sustcnance to thick, tangled
clumps Of spicy pinks. old fashioned
rose bushes and h~oneysucklo vines,
laundering over wire network trcllises,
which metaphorically kill two birds
with II stone by literally preserving
the birds-that is, the hen and hei
chick-from disaster and u%pholding the
lacy green drapery Of tho vines.
OF course the hen is not allowed the
liberty Of this garden in the air, though
she keeps u vigilant and determined eye
out for opportunities to maraud outside
her own domain, which is quite spaciou
enough to keep her hale and hearty

Tho King OF Anam Broke u Custom and
Created u Panic.

Not long ago " ere was terrible ~.
c~iternent at the royal court Of hnam.
The king, Thunah- Tai, who was then II
years old, was missing. Etiquette TO.
quires that the Anamcse king shall
never leave the royal grounds. Ee is II
knightly prisoner. But tho young po-
tentate was not hard to find. Though he
was q king, no was u boy, and it is nat
ural for n boy, when he has some mon
ey in his pocket, to want to get out and
spend it.
That was exactly what the king of
Anam had done. Entirely alono he
had started on shopping" expedition
through the streets of Hue. OF course
no one knew him because he had never
shown his face in public. He was sim
ply a boy, like any other boy, and this
was exactly what he wanted.
But he was treated with great respect
by tho ~shopkecpers, because no seemed
to have plenty Of money. Curiously
enough. the thing which seemed to at
tract him most was a head shearing ma
chine, or hair clipper, and when the
frightened mobiles OF the court discovered
him ut last it was with this singular
implement in his possession.
He had already begun an attempt to
experiment with it on the heads Of sew
eral small street boys, who were prov
lug rebellious subjects, when the cour
tiers approached him, prostrating them
selves upon the ground and making
alarmed outcries.
Tho king no longer goes out shopping,
but no retains his hair clipper as a SOU
venir Of a happy day Of freedom with
the street boys. -Pittsburg Dispatch.

A Worried Farmer.

A farmer who has been studying
agricultural journals writes the editor
Of an Ohio paper that he is stumped.
He says he reads in n journal that
a side window in his stable makes a
horses eye weak on that side. An.
other paper tells him that a front win
dow hurts his eyes by the glare; those
ON diagonal lines make him shy when
he travels; m behind makes him
sQuint-eyed. and a stable without win
dows make, him blind. The farmer
wants to know whether there Is an,

tors where he can hang his windows.

WHAT THEY SAY OF EOPS.
BALTIMORE NEWSPAPERS ARE
ENTHUSIASTIC OVER THE
YOUNG PITCHER.

Pitcher Nops, until recently with
the Wilmington team, but now an Ori-
ole, is entitled to the credit of pitching
and in great measure by his pitch
ing-winning the game that brought
to an end the contest for the cham
pionship of 1896. The young south
paw who did the honOrs was given a
trial yesterday by Manager Hanron,
and a crucial test it was. He was
pitted against the one club in the
league that is death to left-handed
pitchers. Even the great Breiten
stein when at his best was always a
target for the Bridegrooms, and it was
for this reason that Esper was never
put in against them. Again, this was
the second game he ever pitched in
the big league. Baltimore American
Manager Hanlon decided to give the
young left-hander from the Whining
ton (Del) Club, of the Atlantic
League, a trial against Brooklyn. The
BrOOklyns are considered the hardest
lot of batters in the league for a left
handler. as eight of them are right
handed batters, but pitcher Nops had
them guessing all the way through
and Manager Hanlon was so much
pleased with him that he was secured
