Won His Bet.

1t is one Of the proud boasts Of
Lord Charles Beresford that he can
ride or drive anything. One day
he may be seen toollng four in
hand, the next scurrying across
country on a hunter or riding a
bicycle. Perhaps the most curious
ride Lord Charles ever had, however,
was on water cart, aud thereby
hangs tale He had wagered that
he would drive down Rotten row in
broad daylight, and, as our readers
know, vehicles are forbidden in the
row. At the appointed time the
other party to the wager, with few
friends, took up position to see il
Lord Charles would attempt the
feat. While they waited a water
cart came along, and some OF the
party were literally sprinkled with
none too clean water. The victims
protested in forcible terms, when, to
their unbounded astonishment, the
oilskins of the driver were pushed
back, revealing the merry features
Of the popular sailor. "Hand over
that hundred, old fellowl" he re-
marked calmly. Lord Charles had
squared the driver of the water cart,
and had won his wager.-LondOn an

sUMA MATSU
a Japanese Nobleman's Daughter on
the sta g a foster Chi d of the
GuliCks

the STA q a roster Uni u OF Inc
Guicks
A Cincinnati dispatch of July 10th
said: For several weeks Miss Matsu
HOMO THAT is her Japanese name)
has made her home in Cincinna att.
The name she has adopted is Kat
herine Agnes Gulick. She is the
daughter Of a Japanese nobleman
and an American mother. 10 1876
Count HOMO OF japan married Miss
Emma Tyler, who was of a branch
II President Tyler's family aud
Virginian by birth and rearing. The
marriage took place 10 Philadelphia.
The only child of the union is the
young lady now here. Her mother
was a lady of much beauty and
brilliancy, and the daughter nherits
onth Count HOMO remained in
this country until his death, which
occurred a few years after his
daughter was born. The Counts
family never fully forgave him for
his alliance with the American lady.
When Sums Matsu was years old
ner mother died. Her japanese
grandparents then sent for her. On
board the ship Old belgic, which con-
veyed the little lady to japan, Rev.
o. II. Gulick and wife, both mis-
s'onaries, we're returning to Japan
from the United States. They for
med an attachment for Suma Matsu,
aud being childless persuaded her
grandparents in Japan to allow them
to adopt her. Her name was changed
to Katherine Agnes Gulick, to which
she still holds. She lived ten years
in Japan with her foster parents,
and then went with them to Homo
lulu They remained there eight
months, when they came to Oberlin,
Ohio, to visit relatives OF the Gulicks.
Katherine was placed in the Wes-
tern College at Oxford, Ohio, where
she remained one year, and than
came to Cincinnati and attended the
Walnut Hills Institute for two
sessions. While at Oxford she de-
cided to embrace the Catholic faith.
This angered and astonished her
foster parents, the Gulicks, who are
Congregationalists. They gave her
the choice of giving up Catholicism
or of being disowned by them after
she was Is years old. She chung to
her faith, took her first communion
on her 18th birthday and was dis
owned. She still corresponds with
them, but for two years they have
not assisted her. She still has an
affection for them. Realizing that
she had to support herself, she
taught music and elocution, and for
the past two years she has been able
to attend the College Of NJ usic. Miss
Gulick's ambition is for the stage.
she wants to sing in comic opera.
Some time ago she made her debut
at the Pike Opera House in "The
Wife," taking the part of maid.
She was great success, and is to be
given a regular CART next season.

COFFEES

Some are cheap now. Cheap
cereal adulterated coffees are
very plentiful and are forcing
down the prices of the old
Kona product, especially the
m-dium and lower grades
with which they compete.
The higher grades of IL
and coffees have declined a
little in sympathy.
Our customers are the first
to benefit by reductions.
Fine coffees are scarce and
no reductions can be made in
their prices.
