1t is but a couple Of years since the
vision of the White City Of Chicago end
ed in fame and smoke or vanished be-
fore the rains Of winter, and yet already
the dream is Undertaking., the phenix
has risen from the ashes by Lake Mich
sigan to$fy from city to city, wherein
Z the plaster and stucco Of the Columbian
palaces are becoming enduring stone,
says Scribner's. The great educational
institutions have opened the way, not
only with plan, but alsoswiitth realiza-
tion, with colleges in New York, and
the beautiful library Of Boston, and
with the huge and magnificent pile
which has arisen beside the rational
capitol. .$,., .5.5.
But Though some ofsthese buildings
were projected and designed before the
worlds fair grew into being the latter
has taught to the people that shall visit
them the lesson Of enthusiasm and APP
probation; above all, Of that enthu-
.siasm which results ii common di-
reotion, Of hatinterap ciation which
results il harmony. Harmony Wassthe
great lesson off the CO lumb 81 IN city; the
architects joined hands, and in the
court Of honor each Of the great build
ings assumed greater beauty and sig
nifcance from the fellowship Of the
charming palaces that. surrounded it.

THE PRINCESS LOVES ANIMALS

Her Fondncss for Old Pets and Prowess
In the Hunt. II
A writer in Cassel' S Family Magazine
deals pleasantly with the subject of
the horses Of the princess Of Wales.
The princess bay pony, Huffy,' is now
20 years Of age. He is past work and is
having high old time of it. He
stands about 10 hands high,
and has been the first favorite
of the princess. for the 16 years
he has been in her service. He knows
his mistress as well as any of her dog
do, and, if allowed, would follow he
anywhere. He is too old to work nov
and has had his shoes taken off finally
but still lives most luxurious life, con
stantly visited and fed by his mistress
who never allows an old favorite to be
killed. Mr.. Jessop mentions incident-
ally that it may not be generally known
that the princess is a most intrepid
rider to hounds. Her light weight and
hands, coupled with the high-class
horses she rides and her own fearless
spirit, enables her to keep almost invari-
ably in the first fight. In fact, during
a fast run she as rule leads the field,
and many fox's mask and brush dec
crate her private apartments to testify
to her prowess. Neither does weather
daunt her. Upon a notably bad day
last winter Prince George was the only
one Of a large party who faced with his
mother the storm which prevailed at
the time fixed for the meet. 81

!. A SMART ARITHMETIC MAN.

The Story of a Chinaman's Property-Was
1t Divided Correctly?
Z A Chinaman died, leaving his prop
erty by will to his three sons, as fol
lows, says Harper's Round Table:
''To Fue lhuen, the oldest, one-half
thereof; to Nupin, the second son, one
third thereof, and to Ding-bat, his
youngest, one-ninth thereof
When the property was inventoried it
was found to consist of nothing more or
less than II elephants, and it puzzled
those three heirs how to divide the
property according to the terms of the
will without chopping up II elephants
and thereby seriously imparing their
value. Finally they applied to a wise
neighbor, Suenpunk, for advice. Suen-
punk had an elephant of his own. He
drove it into the yard with the II and
said: - !
Now, we will suppose that your IA
Their left these Is elephants; Fuenhuen,
take your half and depart" So Fuen-
heun took nine elephants and went
his way. E l.
Nov, Nupin,'' said the wise man,
stake your third and CO." So Nupin
took six elephants and Travelled.
'Now, Ding-bat," said the wise man,
stake your ninth and BECOME" So
Ding-bat took two elephants and va
moosed. Then Suenpunk took his own
elephant and drove him home again. -
Query: Was the property divided ac-
cording to the terms of the will? =

AN INDIAN LEGEND.

How the Mojaves Explain the Division OF
the Races.
The mystery surrounding the origin
of the Indian race is greatly enhanced
by listening to some OF the quaint Leg
ends, says the Los Angeles Herald. Here.
is one. of them, related by the older
men of the Mojave tribe:
SAT the time of the Mojave, the white
man, the negro, and all other people
lived together with their god, Mule
velia, whose mother was the earth, and
whose father the heaven.
''They. were all supplied with food,
clothing, and many Injuries. Besides
these they had tools and all kinds of i'm
plements and machinery to work with.
Everything was manufactured, and
especially matches. %.-l. .-.
Zone day Mulevelia died, and all the
people, excepting the Mojaves, fled, aft
er looting the camps of every thing they
could lay their hands on, not even leav-
ing a, match. 80.
Here was a pretty state of affairs,
and the dead god awaiting cremation!
There seemed to be no other alterna-
tive than to dispatch a messenger for
a spark from one of the brilliant lu-
ninaries of the upper region, and acoy-
Ote was sent to a. star for some fire.
n After a long time he returned with
out success, and SO hungry that he
tried to eat up the dead god.
''Mastanho, the man, sat by rubbing
willow sticks together, and produced
fire, which they used in burning up
Mulevelia. tsy5 ...a
After the cremation, which took
place somewhere near Fort Mojaye, the
mountains at the foot Of the canyon
parted and the Colorado flowed through
and swept the ashes away.
1Mastanho now became chief and di-
vided the Indians into tribes and gave
them their allotments of land
