NEWS FROM THE NORTH SOON.

If the North Pole hasn't recently been adorned by the most beautiful flag on earth, namely, the Star Span- gled Banner, it is because some vely enterprising citizens os the United States have been foiled by unforeseen and insurmountable obstacles Any way, there will be great news from the North soon. Mrs. Peary has just em- parked on the steamer Windward for Greenland to meet her husband and bring him back to the United States. She will go first to Greenland, and if she does not find him there will cross to Ellesmere Land, on the west side uf Smith Sound. He should now be re- turning from the Polar dash which he was expected to make early in the pres ent season Commander Peary's friends are confident that he has discovered the Pole, and that the honor will thus come to the United States. This week the supply steamer Frithjof of the Baldwin -Zeigler expedition has sailed away from the farthest point in Nor way for Franz Josef Land to carry needed stores to the daring American explorer who has been making 'try' for the Pole on that side of the world. while Peary has been engaged In the same attempt on this side. The Bald win expedition is the best equipped that ever went into the Polar regions. with it's fine steamer America, which has wintered in the Arctic at about S2 degrees, north latitude, and the Frith- iof. which went into the Arctic last summer with the other boat. but re- turned to civilization to spend the win- ter and carry back the stores which it is now bearing northward. MT. Baldwin presumably made dash for the Pole this spring, and he, as we'll as Peary, may come back with tale of suc- cess.
 The United States needs the North Pole, and it is to be hoped that her emissaries have found and annexed it.

She did what she could to comfort him, but he was difficult, She thought touch of the romantic might get him out of his mood; so, she tried this:

CONVICT TRACY.

Of course Convict Tracy deserves death. and every right minded one who reads about his exploits is hoping that he will be killed and captured. or cap tured and killed. But he has certainly made things lively and deadly since he escaped. He has killed men, has scared both men and women, and has dis couraged dogs. Perhaps he is already caught, or if not he soon may be, but he has shown what can be done by a reckless and resourceful man. If he doesn't live to figure on the gallows as a fitting reward of his merit, or if he does, he will figure in tales of the wild West. We suppose there are some who hope he will get clear away, but those who thus hope allow their sympathy to overcome their judgment. He is mur- derer, though a somewhat uncommon one, and he richly deserves the penalty of his crimes.

house party are taken to a dance. they
 do not leave cards. there being no time
 for so doing before the expiration os a visit. therefore it is not expected from , them.
 ] After a dance it is not the rule for
 any of the guests who have been pres ent to ask if the hostess is at home,
 but merely to leave cards, and if this is
 not done immediately after the event
 this card-leaving might be considered
 as actual calling, when net to ask for the hostess would be tC placa the call
 ing on differenL fao;ing.
 ! Concerning the ca.ds that should be left. 4 mother leaves he. oHn card. { with her daughters names upon 1t, o'it i not her husbands cards. as, naturally, he is not invited. A young married lady, on the contrary, does leave her husbands cards, he having been invited, and, whether present or not, his cards, , in consequence are left.
 ' When young girls are invited without 1 their mothers by the friends and ac-
 quaintances of the latter the same rou-
 tine of card-leaving is followed, the mot hers cards left, with the daughters names upon them. Cards are also left after dance by all those invited yet
 not able to be present. save when pre-
 vented by illness, when cards cannot be ! delft.
 Afternoon entertainments have re- leased themselves in measure from subsequent card-leaving in two ways.
 After very large functions the guests leave their cards in the hall on depar- ture, or they leave them on arrival on a table as they enter, and this applies equally to large afternoon at homes
 within doors and to garden parties also large, both in town and country. The 1 other mode of emancipation takes effect
 after small afternoon at homes and garden parties. when to leave cards
 would be considered over ceremonious, either on the day of the entertainment or subsequently, save in the case of first
 nvitations.-London Queen.

EYE TEARS OF JOY.

Those who don't play chess can hard Iy understand the deep joy with which its devotees play their long distance and long time games. There is chess fiend in this city who delights in spending year or so in playing a game by corre- spondence. He and others like him will wish that they could take part in game which is being played by a man in Canton, Ohio, and another in War saw, Russia. It is estimated that the game will cover five happy and interest," ing years, as it is being conducted by mail and it takes fourteen days for letter to pass between the two places. Just think of the pleasures of imagina- ton and guessing that these two play CTS can have while awaiting the letters that will tell them what has been done. We hope they will live to end the game, and we shall not be surprised if they do, for such interest as they will feel while waiting for their chess letters will tend to keep their minds off their woes and make life seem worth living. Many men of many minds. While the Canton man and the Warsaw man are serenely and joyously playing their five years game of chess the devotees of the glorious game of baseball will be happy in the fact that their game can't be played by correspondence.

TAIN THING FOR SAFETY.

The Psalmist says horse is vain thing for safety, and many who have felt pretty safe with horse have found out that the Psalmist knew more about horses than they did. They know so"1'e- thing about horses in Kentucky, where they grow them, and Kentuckians have been supposed to have unbounded love for and faith in the noble animals. Rut here comes Kentuckian and thus deposes in Harper's Weekly: I have spent much of long life in the observ- ation of horses. I have reared them, broken them, trained them, ridden them and driven them in every form from the plough to the four-in-hand. The result of these years of study is summed up in one sentence: I believe the horse to be part maniac and part life develops into a homicidal maniac
 I believe any man who trusts himself or his family to the power of horse, stronger than himself, to be lacking in common sense and wholly devoid of or dinary prudence. I have driven one commonplace horse every other day for six years over the same road, and then had him go crazy and try to kill him.

The Philadelphia Press tells people who are figuring up the enormous losses on account of the coal strike. that the mines are always idle four months in the year. and if this time they take it out of the summer season instead of some other. the loss will be little or nothing, provided the strike does not last longer than four months, and work is continued through the other eight.
