The March DelineatOr.

During the past year The De
lineator's facilities for obtaining
the first information of what is
being done in the centers of
fashion have been greatly ex-
tended and it now commands
resources, that perhaps, are not
possible to any other magazine.
Some of these results are shown
in the March number, where is
presented the first intimation of
the spring modes in garments
of all kinds and millinery-the
work of some of the most noted
designers of Paris, London,
Vienna and New York. The
literary features of the March
number possess high quality
and great interest. The first
paper on Pictorial Photography,
by j. G. Abel, shows the posi-.

YOUNG M. DIS FIRST CALL.
Waited Six Months, and Then the
 Case Was One Not In the Books.

From the New York Sun.
 Dr. Boone, whose "reminiscences of the lost cause interest many listeners at several New York clubs, where he is a frequent visitor. told a good one about his first patient. Ills shingle had been . target for the clements for six months
 Tt was not because the town of Fay cite, Mo-, was so distressingly healthy, , he said. "All my professional brethren were doing well while waited.
 My office, was on the second floor of A shop and I could hear what was go- ing on below. One night a man gallop- ed h.s horse in front of the house and hallooed to the shopman. When the shop man answered, the man on horseback asked him if he thought Doc Boone was in his office.
 .srhe shopman assured him that was upstairs The horseman dismounted and hitched his nag. At lastp I unused, as most any young doctor would have done under the circumstances

Where the Glue Pot Came In.

 There was the usual collection of com mercial travellers in the smoking-room of the hotel, and the inevitable quiet man was one of them. They had been asking conundrums, many of which had been re- ceived with roars of laughter, as being particularly clever. Then the quiet man lit a fresh cigar, and spoke:
 Tt is easy,' he said "to think of such riddles as Why Is your hat like baby? which contain one simile, but those with two are far more difficult For instance:
 What is the difference between the son of a millionaire, an organ and glue pot?"
 "I give it up,' said the mustard trav- eler presently.

MT. Thomas has grown older, his dig nifty has heightened, both in the manner of his conducting and his conception of compositions. He has never strayed into the sentimentallsm that victimized so many musicians Nothing could be farth- 'er from his mind than sentimentalism, and this fact impresses the patrons of the Chicago Orchestra as they watch its conductor direct its playing.
 The Chicago Orchestra Is supported by an association of business men whose re- ward is in the prestige of the orchestra and its excellence. When It is not oecu- pied in Chicago, 1t makes visits to the larger cities of the middle west.

Dabney as Governor Wise.

From the Philadelphia Times.
 Following the John Brown insurrection and trial, Governor Wise of Virginia be- came the center Of comment and attrac- tion throughout the nation.
 An old gentleman by the name of Lucas was then running a tavern in Jimtown.
 He was a very eccentric man and an intense admirer of Governor Wise.
 Spencer Dabney had heand of his pecu- liarfty, and he had never been in Jim town, and was not known there, deter mined to play practical joke on his first trip.
 when he went into the house he regis tered as Governor Wise of Virginia.
 When old man Lucas saw the name he came very near going into "conniption nus He grasped Dabney by the hand ana told him how pleased he was to see him. the greatest man of ancient or mod ern times and how greatly he regrett ed his inability to entertain one of his posi- tion, but promised to do all he could
 He rushed out and told his good wife who was thereby put into state of fey- erish excitement.
 Runners were sent in every direction to bring all manner of food that might he found. Pies and cakes were baked in profusion. The table fairly groaned with good things.
 F Whereupon Dabney did come, and such dinner no man eyer ate before or since
 Of course no bill was paid, but after he had gone and the deception was discoy- cred, he did not dare to visit that town for more than year, when he was for given by Lucas. and they were ever afterward the warmest of friends.
