A "REMINISCENCES.

Seventy-four years ago I heard a pro-
phecy or a prediction made by MARQUIS
de Lafayette. when he visited Richmond
Va. in 1894 He had to land at YOrkville.
and / will not attempt TO describe the
splendid military display in sending TO
meet him, the splendid barouche and four
magnificent horses glittering with silver.
At the edge Of town they formed the
grand procession. First came the Gene
raj and his suite, surrounded by the cav
airy; next came the Richmond Blues
Company and brass band Of twenty
three pieces; then the artillery, and then
every prominent citizen Joined in the pro-
cesslon. The main street Of Richmond
had a gradual rise, so that you could see
plainly from Market street up as high as
the Virginia Bank on one side and the
penitentiary store on the other. This
street led to the Capitol Square. Every
door and window was crowded: nothing
was heard but "Welcome. Lafayettel
Welcome Lafayetter The General was
soon landed at the Eagle Hotel. That
night they had a magnificent ball at the
Eagle in his honor. and fireworks on the
Capitol Square such as / never saw he
fore. Next day the Capitol Square was
crowded again. everybody wanted to
shake hands with the General. The Union
Sunday-school pupils mot many in num-
ber) were drawn up on one side; was in
the line standing about eighth from head.
the General was announced. making some
pleasant remark; as he shook hands with
each one, he started, saying that we
should never forget those who had
fought and bled to give us such a repdb-
liza republic that is destined to be one
Of the grandest in the world. He was
holding my hand at the last expression

Seventy -four years Of my life have pass

THE QUICK HORSE.


An Outgrowih of Improved American
Methods of Fire Fighting.
In st, Nicholas there is an article on
Tho Quick Horse, by +. $. Dellen-
baugh, devoted to the horses of the mod
ern fire department. Mr. Dellenbaugh
says: 1t is only within recent years that
quick horses have been developed and
appreciated and admired, and the poet
has not yet attempted to sing the praises
of this more prosaic but noble animal.
Yet, after all, To one who carefully ex
amines the matter the quick horse ap
pears to have quite us good, if not Il bet
ter, claim upon our admiration and
sympathy and encouragement. The
swift horse wins the race, and III these
days hu may cause considerable money
to change hands, in which there is GER
tainly nothing that is commendable.
But the quick horse | write about SAVES
life saves property and under modern
conditions of life Is essential to our
safety and general we'll being. He Is
the result indirectly OF poor building
mn Outgruwth of our skillful American
fire departments, which could not nuw
exist without him.
Not so very many years ago " hen IL
fire broke out everybody far and near
hogan to run and especially began to
yell, and the volunteer firemen of that
time, being in the service for the excite
ment of it, joined in the yell and start
ed out the old hand engine from its sol
emn repOse, while the foreman running
ahead shouted innumerablo orders
hoarsely through his trumpet, to the
great delight of hundreds of small boys
painting to keep up i'll the glorious race.
The tire-that was altogether "A SEQ.
ondary matter and when they all final
ly got there they went to work with
more or less efficiency. There was a
great deal of fun in the business, but
fires Were not extinguished. Our cities
i'll the early days were not built to pre-
vent fires, but seemed. if anything, ra-
thor built TO encourage them.
In France we may well be amused as
we watch the pompior corps trundle its
bathtub on wheels to the scene of the
conflagration and deliberately fill its
apartments with water dipped up from
the gutter, whence it is thrown by Il
little pump upon the flames, because we
know much of the architecture there is
solid, and if the fire is not extinguished
1t will soon burn itself out But i'll our
country mere spark may in "a few Sec
onds become deyouring furnace and
destroy house after house and block aft
er block. Many buildings are finder
boxes and our dry climate adds to their
infammability, while the ever present
careless or lazy workman by improper
construction gives the fire its first OPP
