Edith Sessions Upper, an eastern
lady, has travelled over the west and
become fascinated with western men,
and after saying all manner of nice
things about the western business man,
editor, lawyer, rlnchman or cow
punbher, concentrates her admiration
upon a Hesperus stage-driver in these
words:
The very handsomest, the most grace
full and picturesque fellow ! ever saw
WAS stage driver in Hesperus, Colo.
He came into camp driving his four-in-
hand from La Plata. His figure was
that OF an ancient Greek, his face like
an antique cameo. His cheek were
like peaches and his eyes like stars. He
carried himself like n thoroughbred and
his bizarre and fantastic accoutrements
formed an admirable setting for his su-
perb beauty. In n frock coat, silk hat
and gardenia he would have looked like
dozen Others, but in his costume bor-
rowed from Mexican vaquero he was
distinctive and illuminative.
Who is this handsome and pictur-
esque fellow who touched Edith's
heart? He must have allowed her to
ride with the driver.-Del Norte Pros
pector.
He was Billy Waybright, and Edith's
heart is not the only one he ever cap
tured.

Exit the Parlor Match.

The parlor match ofsputtering, snap
ping memory, the smokers friend, the
small boys delight and the bette noir
OF the underwater, is soon to become
an outlaw in many of the cities of the
land. A convenience and at the same
time menace to the safety of the pub
lie, investigation into its habits and pc
culiarities has resulted in the verdict
that for the good of the community it
must go into exile.
The edict of Punishment, which goes
into effect in New York on January /,
is being received with mixed feelings of
regret and replacement by the public

self, should have been the ideal. Time,
however, instead of bringing about its
improvement, has SO attracted attention
to its unredeemed evils that it may no
longer hope to be persona non grata
in official circles, and in this respect
we think the parlor match is deserving
of our sympathy, rather than of uni
varsal reprobation. In theory it was a
good match, convenient, and not an
offense to the olfactory organ; but in
| its manufacture there We're either econ
| omies or great carelessness permitted
which were fatal toits success. Flimsy
| wood, for instance, was used in the
sticks, and the little brown torpedo
shaped head which made it a poten-
| TALLY usful domestic article was all too
frequently placed upon II neck so brit
tie that the necessary friction to bring
the match into action at the same time
sent it blazing end flying of into dan
gerous places, small but terrible in
