CLUB LIFE AND MARRIAGE.

4 well known club in Fifth avenue an o-ganiza ton of the foremost rank. has the ncmcs of more than 500 can didates for membership on its waiting list. This is one of many evidences nf the astonishing development of club life i1 New York. To c multitude of unmarried men the Vaccinations of well managed clubs are almost irresisti- blc, and it has often been suspected that they are discourcS gers Of matri- mony. Bachelors and v-idowers of fair incomes get so much enjoyment in the spacious and well appointed homes CT these associations that it is believed an increasing number Of them are dis inclined to content themselves with the tranquil atmosphere of family life and the duties and diversions of the domes- tic hearth.
 In the competition between the all lurements of the most prosperous soda hies, fraternities and like bodies of good fellows, whose tastes, sentiments and aims are largely in accord, and the mild and benignant sway of house. hold Lares and Penates. the clubs too often prevail. especially in the even ings. The clubs of New York are con- stantly becoming more important and 
 more numerous, and they are rapidly gaining in membership, in wealth and in cttractiveness.
 There are more notable and success ful organizations of this kind than ever
 before in this metropolis. and some of
 them can hardly be exceIled in distinc-
 tion, in admirable management and in opportunities for comfort and pleasure even in London, the one capital famed
 above others for centuries as the chief city of clubs. With their libraries and reading rooms, their parlors. restau- rants and cafes. their apartments for the reception of guests. and for easy. unaffected meetings and talk of men O. k indred minds; their billiard rooms. card rooms and Turkish baths. and their departments for every sort of rational recreation which men can en- joy within doors, New York clubs arc not tagging behind those which are
 most flourishing elsewhere.-New York | Tribune.

NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN.

It is said that many parents are at tending the night schools and that the --C -i-~- of minds how to shoot is no .ClEe- confined to the young. This is Certairly c-e of the most hopeful signs O. the t--les, for if, as the trite saying .C--, tie future of the country is in the ha-ls of tac young the present is in the h~-G5 oi the parents, and with t-cn Knowledge may be a greater powe. thcn 1t may be with younger brai-s.

The sums that yCIIr hopeful brings home are sometime ID much for a fathers wits, and q-o .2ls il English" ire qucltly stagCer the maternal intellect. They did 1t differently in our times" is the parental apology for these fail ures, but frequently the parent has tU admit that they didn't do it at all in his time, and that the studies about which his child talks so glibly were unknown to the philosophy of his younger years. Of course it is q truism to say that education is not 2 matter of books, of problems in alge- bra, or questions in grammar. "Su- perior educational advantages" may be gained from life as well as from col leges- Yet the parent who can cope with his children in the technique of education has power that gives him a definite hold upon them and that brings inward satisfaction to himself. Live and learn is the motto of the day, and the learning goes on as long as does the iving.-Chicago Tribune.

"The Strollers," which is an adaptation from the German play by Krenn and Lindau. IL had quite a vogue in the principal cities last year, starting with a summers run in New York at the Knickerbocker theatre,
 and is one of the cleverest of the lighter Operatic pieces. The cast includes Louise Middleton, Dorothy Hunting, Alice Davenport, George C. Boniface Jr. John D. Gilbert, D. L.

The plot concerns two sort of peasant characters, the one a shopkeeper- by name August Lump. and the other Bertha, a sort Of Hungarian stroller and ballad singer whom he has married. The course of true love runs smooth enough for them in a conjuga1 sense, but meeting with ill fortune in his business they decide 70 travel as wandering mountebanks and endeavcr to make their living by giving entertainments at fetes, fairs and wherever the opportunity offers.

ANECDOTES OF WHITTIER.

Among many other things I remem- Der his having told us, writes Wyatt Eaton, the painter, about Whittier, in the Century, was that he voted for Lincoln four times. At each of two elections he voted as a citizen and as q presidential elector. He told about T man from one of the western states having made a pilgrimage to Amesbury to see him. Not finding him at the house, he went to the grocery store, where he was told that Whittier might be found. Sure enough, there was Whit tier, seated upon 9 barrel, in the midst of group of village people, telling stories. The man was so disgusted that he turned and went home without mak- ing himself known to the poet.
 Whittier was much pleased that I had once attempted to make illustra- tions for his Maud Muller" and that I had some acquaintance with his poetry Of the Maud Muller he told me he was once driving along a country road with his sister. They came upon a very pretty young girl making hay

CLEVELAND AND BIG WORDS.

Grover Cleveland's address at the in- auguration of Woodrow Wilson as president of princeton is good in sub stance and faulty in form. It's style is bad. The young men of Princeton should not take it for model.
 Ex-President Cleveland's fondness for long words is growing upon him with age. No word of less than five syllables seems to attract him. His Princeton address probably was intend ed to be one of the greatest efforts of his life" So it is if it is his wish to let his hearers know how we'll acquainted he is with ''the long tailed words in osity and action" His painstaking ef- forts to weed out the humble monosyl- fables and plant stately polysyllables in their place is almost comic.
 It is odd that MT. Cleveland, a simple, plain, unaffected man in many ways, should have developed such a fondness for turgid eloquence and siX-foot words and should obscure the merit of the matter of his addresses by their faulty form. So far as school boys and young college men read Mir. CIeveIand's ad- dresses and are influenced by them they are guided in the wrong direction They are led to believe that when g man works his way up from humble beginnings to a position of dignity he must talk to suit his new station. must discard short words, and use others which are as imposing as his career.
 The young man should be taught that plain, direct, concise speech cannot ba sought for too earnestly. Abraham Lincoln was man of the people who rose from low to high estate but he never got away from the plain speech of his earlier years. Mir Cleveland is not college man but he seems to be fonder of Latin words than the men are who teach Latin. If he does not wish to have d bad influence upon the ris- ing generation he will give up some of the long words of which he is so fond and search the dictionary for the mcnosyllables which plain people like because they always know what they mean.
 All this may be said in the kindest spirit. It Casts no reflection on Mir.
