Still others of Poynter's close friends are
urging him, should he be forced to make
the decision, to brush aside all the contend
ing candidates and take up a new man who
will strengthen the populists and put them
in position TO demand both the senatorships
and at the same time offend neither of the
fusionist factions.
Way in the background is a group of wise
acres whispering into the ear of Governor
Poynter that he ought to take advantage OF
the opportunity of a lifetime and have him
self named as senator by agreement with
the lieutenant governor. These friends are
urging Poynter to resign and let Lieutenant
Governor Gilbert make out the commission
in his name. OF course up TO this time,
however, the governor has given these sug-
gestions no cOuntenance. but is plainly do
ing a heap OF thinking and ponderng over
all possibilities. That he Is sorely perplexed
over the situation Governor POynter himself
ADMITS and he shows embarrassment over
the untimely squabble OF selfish aspirants
who refuse to wait until a vacancy presents
itself.

CONCERNING BABY CARRIAGES.

Brakes Now on Nearly AIl-Rise of the Co
Cart-The Baby Carriage Season.
The predecessor OF the present prevailing
style OF baby carriage. thirty or forty years ago,
was built like a chair; 1t had but two wheels.
and the bodSswhich had a folding carriage top.
was supported on straps attached to a wooden
frame. This carriage was drawn by means
OF q tongue in front. and attached 20 the under
side OF the tongue. near the body Of the car
rage. was an iron foot or rest upon which the
carriage was supported when the tongue was
not held. The immediate successor OF the old
style chaise was the perambulator. a baby car
rage with three wheels. two at the back and
one at the front. the perambulator being
pushed instead of drawn. The ~perambulator
was succeeded by the four. wheeled carriages
now In common use.
In the course OF time baby carriage brakes
appeared. TO prevent accidents when the car
riage was left unguarded. One of the first
was o sliding bar attached to the running part
OF the carriage and having a forked end which
fitted a spoke. thus locking the wheel. There
are now a number OF styles o brakes. and
they are In common use. being applied to low

The modern baby carriage is made in q great

them being sold mt prices remarkably low. 1t

mated that OF the total stock of vehicles used
for baby carriages this season go-carts will
occupy a third, or perhaps more. The 60
cart is produced this year in n greater variety
OF styles than in any previous season; and the
cheapest Of them costs considerably less than
the cheapest baby carriage. The go-cart has
been in use but four or five years. but the de-
lnand has increased from the start and is still
increasing.
The go-cart is propelled from behind like
the ordinary baby carriage. but 1t is a vehicle
OF much less bulk and more like a chair on
wheels. Originally 1t was used only for older
children. that Is for children old enough to sit
up. but 1t is now made with a movable back
that can be tipped at any angle and held in
place by set screws and so made a reclining
as well az a sit up vehicle. One characteristic
that is supposed to commend the go-cart es-
pecIally for city use is its smaller size. 1t can
be more easily taken In and out OF the house.
and, more easily stored than the four-wheeled
vehicle.
The great. season for the retail baby car
riage trade is spring. The babies have been
more or less cooped up In the house through
the winter. and every mother wants them to
have tho benefit OF the air. As many baby
carriages are sold here in the spring season
as in all the rest Of the year put together.

VEGETABLE MoNsTRos1TIEs.
Proof That They May BE Reproduced from
the Seed of Their Kind.

Considerable study has been given to the
subject Of vegetable monstrosities. These
abnormal gro wths are not yet very well un-
dArstood, but It seems to be established that
many OF them are the result OF disease. 1t
has been believed. however. that not a few OF
them may be reproduced from seed grown on
abnormal plants. Mr.. Hugo de VIies " France
has been cultivating these anomalies for twelve
years past and his notes have recently been
published In the Complies Rendus OF the French
Academy Of Sciences. He says that with the

rise superior to 1t, but they are only the great
Reniuses OF the profession who are not sub

ference about New York Is that its patronage
In artistic matters goes only to tho foreigner.
Several rears ago | met a young girl who
played the piano beautifully. She was not n
great artist. but she was an excellent must
clan. Her name was that OF one of the best
known families of New York. and her friends
were all people Of society. But she was not
taken up. She made an attempt to use the so
cial influence which was hers by right. but she
was a New Yorker. and for that reason So
ciety took really no interest in her. II was
thought that people who have more money
than position might be anxious to have her In
their drawing rooms. as they could not have
got n person Of her name there In any other
way. But even they we're Indifferent. She
was not a foreigner and her name proved un-

she dropped into the background after a few
