NIAGARA FALLS, March 9.-They say
Hoyt's comic song, with it's refrain Of
"Ill never go there any more" did an
immense amount of damage to business
on the Bowery in New York. In the
same way catch phrase has done Nj
agara Falls incalculable harm. LAS
great thief as a Niagara Falls hack
man" has been quoted so often that peo-
pie who plan to visit the falls are often
deferred from staying more than day,
or possibly few hours between trains
Travel i'll this direction is just as great
Niagara is as much Mecca for the
tourist as ever. But it is no longer a
summer resort, and this is in spite of
the fact that the village has done much
to redeem itself from the bad name
which it gained many years ago. There
are honest hackmen in Niagara now
But in these days the principal travel to
Niagara is the excursion business. The
New York Central had to run its trains
in two or three sections ON the Saturday
before Washington S birthday, and every
car was packed. These excursions are a
boon to the people of the village in win
ter. They are all that make business for
the place, and since the ice bridge failed
to form this year there has been moth
ing but the unfailing attraction of the
falling water to draw excursionists here
1t takes long cold snap to form the
ice bridge over the falls. Two or three
times this winter it has begun to FORM
but each time warm spell has rotted
the ice, and it has been washed over the
falls and down the gorge. Once or twice
the dashing spray has frozen on the is
land trees and made a beautiful spec
tacle. But altogether the winter has
been far from lively here.
The opening up of the electric power
works and the starting of many new in
dustries promise to give new life to the
place within a few years, however. 1t
may not become what it once was-the
summer resort of rich, old southern
families. The southern families which
are old are not rich now, and those
which are rich are not old But it may
be made more attractive as general re-
sort for tourists, Already there is talk
of great big hotel, one that will rival
the Florida hotels in size and beauty
The suggestion that the falls become an
American Monte Carlo has -Ae99n made.
out 1t has not met With much encourage
ment. Since Saratoga became virtuous,
Long Branch is the only gambling place
in the north, and there is demand for
more of them. But gambling brings
only temporary prosperity TO a resort,
and it loses more than it gains.

tive in my expressions Of opinion if 1
were you, Mr.. Muslin. The administra-
ton may change, you know"
cit can't change any quicker than I
can, said the old gentleman cheerfully.
Fortunately he was not compelled to
change, but no doubt he could have
adapted his political views to any emer-
gency. That has been the way of his
kind.
The supreme court people were much
amused when the present Kansas state
government took office to read that the
new state officers objected to being
sworn in by the old method of kissing
the Bible because they believed the Gus
tom spreads disease through disease
germs transmitted from one person to
the book and from the book to the next
person whose lips touch it. The disease
germ has become a bugaboo in medical
circles, and every time some one has
blood poisoning from contact with a
roller towel or with paper money-like
the bookmaker i'll New York who died
because of the habit of holding money in
his mouth-the germ is brought cut and
paraded for public entertainment.
The Presidents Bible.
Usually the book used at the inaugu-
ration of a president has been one pur-
chased for the occasion by Clerk Nc
Kenny of the supreme court. Mr.. Nc
Kenny is figure in the Inauguration
ceremony, though a modest one. He
hands to the chief justice of the supreme
court at the proper moment the Bible on
which the president elect is to take the
oath of Office. Mr. McKenny talks inter-
estingly about the Bibles on which the
presidents have taken the oath. He has
officiated at every inauguration since
that Of General Grant. He was not clerk
of the court at the time of Hayes in
auguration, but he was selected to pres
ent the Bible on which Mr.. Hayes was
sworn in to Mrs. Hayes in accordance
with the invariable custom to present
the volume to some member of the pres
ident's family as souvenir.
Mr.. McKenny presented the Bible to
Mrs. Hayes in one of the parlors of the
White House. AS was customary, he
had marked as the presidents lips
touched the book the page and the pas
sage. Mrs Hayes, when he told her
this. said. u hone. M. M2Kaz1.s. =. Z.

or carved bone buttons are placed in a
double row upon the front, making it
double breasted. Neat revers and fiat

ornamented with loOped ornaments in

it should be lined with silk of a good,

Next to that in point Of style comes
the new mantle jacket. This in the
model was Of very thick ribbed velours
i'll plum so dark that it looked black i'll
some lights. There is tight jacket
laid in hollow plat at the back seam,
where there were two rows of black as
trakhan from top to bottom and strap
of the same across the plat. Two rows
of the fur also were put down the front,
which fastened invisibly.
There is great latitude permitted in
the shape Of collars. Some of the ohok-
ers have fiat collars sewed to their tops,
which stand out straight all around.
Some of these are wide, some narrow,
some are rounded, others pointed, some
slashed, and others again are made into
tabs. Some are half way around, some
all the way. Some stand up i'll valois,
Marie Stuart or medici style, and some
are cut in vandykes and scallops
While brown is not the only fashion
able color, it is very popular one this
spring, most particularly in the warm
wood and nut shades; also the tobacco
and seal. All except the tobacco, but
ternut and seal have a definite tint of
red in somewhere. One very odd but
stylish gown of brown cashmere double
was Of deep mahogany shade. Around
the bottom of the skirt was band of
black grosgrain ribbon, with a row of
very heavy mohair braid at the upper
edge. The waist is almost indeScribable.
First was wide black grosgrain belt
and then brick red vest, reaching only
to the upper edge of the belt This vest
fastened with little gold buttons over
another vest of maize taffeta, with a
stock of the same. Then there was q
short jacket of black, white and gray
louisine check silk, unlined. This had a
plated frill at the neck, stiffened and
bound with the brick red silk. Over all
this was bolero of the cashmere, trim
med with the thick mohair braid. The
sleeves were trimmed at the wrists quite
as elaborately. The whole made very
pretty gown.

had taste of Fechter's stubborn
ness soon after his arrival in New York.
He decided that Hamlet" must be the
opening bill, but the managers, who
We're paying him IS, coo week, object
ed, and after wordy war they carried
their point, and the original plan was
adhered to. Hamlet" was given as the
last play during his engagement and
was more praised and condemned than
anything the French actor had previ-
ously done.
Fechter illustrated strikingly the diff
ference i'll the methods of preparation
for the stage in France and this coun-
try. He painted, danced, boxed, design
ed, fenced read music at sight, and, in
a word, was adept at all the accomplish
ments which were likely to be of service
to an actor. His foreign accent was a
drawback to him in this country, but it
was minimized by the man s great mag
netism while he was on the stage.
remember how, after the postpone
ment for two nights of one of the plays,
dress rehearsal was called, and be-
cause had provided artificial instead of
natural grapes for one of the actors to
eat Fechter stopped the proceedings
summarily and declared that nothing
should be done until the real fruit was
provided. And the grapes were got at
an expense of just 81.
1t is not to be wondered at that
Charles Fechter died in poverty. When
he played in New York. his apartments.
at the best hotel in the city, were sump-
tuous, and he entertained like an eastern
potentate. Never did greater spend
thrift live. He had no more idea of the
value of money than child, and when
he became poor and retired to a farm in
Pennsylvania there were many of his
warmest admirers who declared that it
would have been better for him had he
never visited America Critics may diff
fer as to the exact place Fechter should
occupy with reference to the other great
actors of recent years, but they will all
agree that the most brilliantly versatile
genius that ever came to us from a for
eign shore was this same Charles Fech-

WASHINGTON, March "a writer on
oratory recently called attention to the
fact that Garfield was the best educated
of the presidents. Now chat we have a
new president, the statement still holds
good. But I don't believe Garfield was
any better informed than President Nc
Kinley. Few of our presidents have been
college bred, though almost all have
been men of good education. Andrew
Jackson was illiterate-almost as illit-
crate as he was positive-and thereby
hangs a tale which has come down to
me from one old department clerk
through another. 1t hinges on the fact
that the president in early days not only
signed land patents but passed on the
accounts of officers i'll the consular serv-
ice.
Susceptible to Change.
This old clerk, whose name was Mus
tin, had charge of the accounts of the
consular officers To him came one day
q consul who had arrived in the morning
and was anxious to get away from Wash
ington ON the afternoon of the same
day. He had his accounts made up, and
he handed them to Muslin, with the
statement that the president had seen
them and said they were all right. There
was no Endorsement on them, and Mr..
Muslin declined to audit and pass them
to the treasurer until the presidents
name was written across the back. The
consul hurried to the White House,
much annoyed. Apparently the presi-
dent was quite as much put cut by the
necessity Of handling so much red tape,
for he wrote across the back of the ac-
count Correct. Andrew Jackson. Let
this fat be obeyed. " But unfortunately
he wrote fiat with an 80" instead of an
"a, so the injunction lost much of it's
dignity and force. The "fiot" of An
drew Jackson is ON the files of the treas
ury department. to this day
Muslin was hardly more than a pen
sioner toward the close of the war. He
came to the office every day, but he did
very little work He had positive opin-
ions on politics though, and he was
strong Lincoln man. It happened that
most Of the people in the Office with
him were opposed to Lincoln's renomi-
nation, and one of them, taking the old
man aside, said: 81 wouldn t be so pos
