with the magnificent military road as an
example 1t is quite unlikely that Ameri-
can energy will quail where Spanish pio-
neers have shown the way. ~
General Davis expresses the opinion that
it is Of the utmost Importance for the
industrial development Of the island that
some way should be quickly found by
which public improvements can be under
taken by foreign capital.
1t is already proposed to s,rpplant the
line of carriages running between San
Juan and Ponce by naphtha motor car
riages. and company has been formed
in San Juan for that purpose.
There are indications that in the rear
future Ponce will have in operation a
modern electric road. At present, car
riages in Ponce and dilapidated-lo looking
omnibuses in San Juan furnish the public
means OF transportation.

the long main street runs a quaint little
tramroad. with gauge OF perhaps thirty
inches Over this at frequent intervals
q tiny car Is drawn by the diminutive
steeds peculiar to the island. Dowa a

runs another line. where the still smaller
car Is drawn by single horse. The cars
consist Of a platform with a roof, from
which depend red and white striped cur

of mans supremacy and the condi-
tion-in most ,cases-of. his subiuga-
ton by his wife, M%ontlncon year ago
devised a form of humiliation to rouse,
overdocile husbands to q of
their shame.
Last week this ancient punishment
was visited in its full rigor on n par
discipline. The affair created q sensa-
ton, end this week all the husbands
are lions, all the wives lambs.
The spiritless maj whom the town
subjected TO %ignominy was n factory
hand named Jules Roger. He had yen-
tured a few days earlier to find fault
with certain domestic arrangements
which his wife WAS responsible.
INSULTING CtcutuESs SIICu HIS Wllc,
true 10 the traditions of Montlucon
femininity, and a stormy quarrel fol-
lowed. AS the husband did not relin-
quish the ground he had taken, his
wife seized a broom and emphasized
her remarks to such an extent tliat
the mechanic was finally able only 10
crawl out of the house gIoaning.
So when he left his work the next
night he found the majority OF
the towns population lying in wait
for him, impatient for the following
spectacle:
A white cotton niglltcap was tied on
Rogers head and a distnff thrust in
his hand. The Inundated wretch was
then forced on a donkey's back, facing
toward the animals tail. Finally.
upon his back was pinned a placard
upon which was written: II am will
ling to be beaten by my wife"
A chorus of jeers greeted the man
and the donkey as they were led forth
to ride about the town. The process
sion moved slowly and Mt every step
! the crowd increased. All Rogers fell
low workmen. all the husbands who
had been similarly disciplined, and
all the wives who had acted as disci-
plinarians-the latter, ii was noticed,
being particularly jubilant-followed
the jeering, tnunting procession and
its victim in their tour of the town.
But ven Roger is willing to admit
that the superiority of man must be
maintained at whatever cost.

New York Herald: The marriage
OF Chester Alan Arthur, son of the
late President Arthur, to Mrs. An
drews, at Veyey, recalls a interest
ing affair in which his father partici-
pated while officiating ut an cSposi-
ton in this country, and which has
hitherto escaped publication.
August 1. 1883, witnessed the open
ing of the exposition at Louisville,
and the central figure was President
Arthur. Upon his arrival on the soil
OF Kentucky the president was met
by the then governor Of the state,
Luke j: Blackburn, and in response
to a speech of welcome by him the
president made u gracious reply. Tho
train then sped onward through the
state until louisville wa reached
Here the president was met by n deles2
CATION of prominent men of the city,
headed by the mayor, Charles D.. ia
cob. AT night a banquet was rendered
to the distinguished guest at the Galt
house, at which he was called upon
to respond to a tonst.
About. il p. Ill. the president, uc-
~companied by the committee appoint
ed to look after his comfort while in
Louisville, started for the suite Of
rooms which*had been set aside for
him at the Gait house, and, after a
chat Of about half an hour with the
members Of the committee, which
composed some of the prominent men
of Louisvillc's affairs, excused him
self and retired.
After The president had withdrawn.
one of the committee suggested that
the party while away a couple of
hours with a game of poker. No dis
scnting voice being raised, the cards
and chips We're brought forth and the
game was o n For a solid hour OF
more nothing could be heard but the
climbing of the chips and the subdued
voices of the players as the bets were
made. When the game was at its
height, and the eyes and cars of the
players were SO intcntly fixed upon
The cards and the betting as to be
totally oblirious to their surround
ings, a tail figure clad in n white
night robe appeared from behind the
portieres of a communicating room,
and, coming up behind mi of the
players, gently tapped him on the
shoulder.
To the establishment of this player,
upon looklng up he oehetd BY his SIDE
the president of the United States.
The president said he had been lying
in bed since the game begun listening
to the rafting of the chips and the
betting which was going on in the
adjoining room, and, though tired, he
could not persuade himself to go to
sleep until he had taken aRhand in
the game. With one voice the com
mittee extended an invitation to the
president to take a seat Mt the table
and join In the game, which he did.
louisville today has the distinction Of
having once had a president of the
United States while it's guest playing
a game Of poker with some of its lead
ing citizens in his night robe.
