WILL THE GEAR "CUT DOwNs"

FROM M. A. L.
A prominent and distinguished MEM
Der of the large Russian colony in
Paris, writes my Paris correspondent,
has been giving French interviewer
amazing accounts of the magnificent
possessions and properties of the
Gear. In all he is the master Of 100
palaces and chateauX, scattered about
all over his vast empire, and each one
of them is marvelously furnished and
marvelously filled with servants.
Something like $1,000 buffers, grooms,
footmen, Wallets, chefs, coachmen, gar
deners, etc, are housed in the hundred
residences, and their total salaries
amount to the enormous sum of 20,
100000 francs, or 100000.
In the many stables are some 5000
horses, while the heads of cattle may
be placed at $4,000; but even the dis
tinguished and well-informed member
of the Paris Russian colony hesitates
at stating the number of inhabitants
of the Cars kennels, the dogs being
entirely innumerable. Naturally, the
the Gear is not familiar with all his
palaces and chateaux. Out of the hun
dred, indeed there are not less than
sixty-two upon Which he has never
set eyes, and which in all probability
he never will see. But the servants
are there, and everything is ever In
readiness in case the Gar should
take 1t into his head to look just once
upon his truly magnificent abodes.

Why He Married.

Miss Charlotte bod, the champion
woman golfer of England, was talking
at the Philadelphia Country Club about
golf in Scotland, says the San An
tonic Express.
Golf in Scotland is almost a dis
the perseverance that the Scot brings
to golf are quite incredible. With in
Vulnerable players there is nothing
Nottingham can compare in their af-
fections with the game.
II heard not long ago of an elderly
bachelor in Edinburg, who had played
golf from his boyhood up. He was
a lawyer, and every minute he could
steal from the courts was devoted to
the links. This man allowed neither
religion nor society nor business to
interfere with his daily golf. He had
never courted a girl because, he said,
golf hadn't allowed him the time.
Hence everybody was surprised one
day to hear that the crusty old gen.
tleman was to be married. A caddle

DEATH PREVENTS A RACE.


1t seems to be admitted that there
will not be an Americas cup race
next year. Sir Thomas Upton has
notified some Of his friends in New
York that it is too late to arrange
for race for 1905. He said, however.
there was plenty of time to prepare
for a contest in 1906.
1t is probable that the death of
George T. Watson disarranged all
plans for an International yacht con-
test for next year. Sir Thomas Lip
ton was depending upon him to design
boat for an Americas cup contest,
and there were others who had con-
suited him in connection with the
same matter.
Who will take Mr.. Watson's place
as a designer? That question is at
tracing considerable attention. Alfred
Myine was a pupil of Mr.. Watson's
and the understanding in yachting
circles is that English yachtsmen have
high opinion of his ability as de-
signer Of yachts. The boats he has
built have given satisfaction. Some
of them have been highly praised. The
opinion is being expressed that Mylne
will be the designer of the next chal-
lenger.
Mr.. Watson, 1t will be recalled, was
the designer of Shamrock / and II.
Mr.. Fife was the designer of Sham
rock III.
Mr.. Watson was OF the opinion that
Shamrock III was beaten by luck.
Good yachtsmen in this country were
Of the opinion that the boat was as
fast a sailer as her opponent the Co
lumbia, but that the Columbia was
better handled.
But whatever the fact was, Mr.
Watson refused to design another
yacht for the Americas cup race, aft
err the defeat of Shamrock II. It was
for that reason that Sir Thomas LIP
ton secured the services of Mr.. Fife
to design Shamrock I'm.
1t seems, however. that Sir Thomas
had about prevailed upon Mr.. Wat
son to design Shamrock w. wher
death interviewed and put an end e
4 the latter's work.
There is no reason for thinking that
Englishmen are going to stop trying
to win back the Americas cup. They
are almost. II not quite. as determined
to have the cup again as they were
Immediately after it was won from
them. II is a reflection upon them as
a shipbuilding nation not to be able
TO build boat that can capture the
cup.

Lord Brampton's Touching speech.

Lord BramptOn's Touching Speech.
A story with pathetic interest is told
by Lord Brampton in connection with
man whom he defended, says the
London Mail. The man was charged
with wife murder. and his two chill
dren were in court. dressed in black
and sobbing violently. A verdict was
given in the prisoners favor. But
the interest in the case did not end
there.
ION the same evening"" writes Lord
Brampton, Il was dining at the coun-
try house Of a Mr.. Hardcastle. and
near me sat an old inhabitant Of the
village where the tragedy had been
committed

Hawkins said the old inhabitant.

you would have painted the little home
in such glowing colors if you had seen
what I saw last week when 1 was driv-

What was it?' 1 asked.
" Why said the old inha bitant, the
little children who sobbed so violently
in court this morning and to whom
you made such pathetic reference were
playing on an ash heap near their cot
tage. and they had a poor cat with
string round it's neck, swinging back
ward and forward. and as they did so
they sang:
"'''This is the way poor daddy will

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Ledger lind \
says: Every American should be in
some sense politician; but manifestlv
other interests will suffer If every
man becomes a professional politician.
Ofhce-seeking is an honorable quest
we are far removed from the practice
or the Utopians, who had a regula-
ton which declared "if any man as
pires to an office he shall not compass
it"-yet this seductive pursuit should
not beguile a young man from other
employment. The maintenance of
ofnceholders is a necessary public bur-
den. Their number is outrunning the
public need. The rewards Of profess
sional politics are too alluring."

CABINET CHANCES.

The newspaper correspondents at
Washington are at work on the Presi-
dents cabinet. It will occupy them
until the fourth of March. The Presi-
dent has helped them by announcing
that Mr.. Hay, Secretary of State, will
be member of the new cabinet. The
announcement seems to give satisfac-
ton, since Mr.. Hay has made very few
mistakes and has scored many sue
cesses. 1t would be gratifying to this
section of the country If Mr.. Wilson
should be a member of the new cabi-
net. The impression seems to be, and
we have no doubt it is correct, that he
has made the Department of AgricuI-
ture worth more to the farmers than
any one of his predecessors. His work
has been noticed and appreciated He
was appointed by Mr.. Mckinley at the
beginning of his first term.
A surprising statement is that Mr..
Shaw, the Secretary of the Treasury,
will resign soon, and will be succeeded
by Mr.. Cortelyou. 1t seems that Mr..
Cortelyou thinks he is better fitted to
handle the financial affairs of the gov
eminent than he is to run the Post
Office Department. 1t may be that his
success as chairman of the Republican
National Committee has increased the
Presidents respect for his financial
ability. 1t seems that instead of clos
ing the campaign with deficit, he has
on hand over 100000. That is a re-
markable showing. 1t indicates that
the Republicans must have had big
pot of money with which to conduct
the campaign. Heretofore the Republi-
cans have closed their presidential
campaign in debt. At least that is the
general impression. Mr. Cortelyou
may have the ability necessary to
manage the Department of the Treas
ury, though, as far as the public
knows. he has had very little expe-
rience. in financial matters.
The currency is still unsettled-that
is, there is still a demand for an elastic
currency and for changes in the bank
ing system. Is Mr.. Cortelyou qualified
to give recommendations to Congress
on this subject?
No doubt the President is disposed to
give him whatever he wants. He was
the manager of the Presidents cam
paign, and whether the remarkable re-
suit was due to his management or not
he gets the credit. 1t wouldn't be at
all surprising, therefore, il he should
get the treasury portfolio. In that
event, the impression might get abroad
that the shortest route to a cabinet Do
sition is that of the civil service.

WHAT AMERICANS EAT.
From Golfers Weekly.


1t is figured out that in 1850 a hum
dred Americans ate "a sheep, 11S hogs
and rs beeves, whereas in 1900 they
consumed but so sheep, hogs and 20
beeves. Cheese has declined, but If
eggs and poultry are included with
butter and milk as belonging to the
dairy class, the consumption Of that
kind of food is three times what II
was forty years ago. In 1850 100 per-
sons ate 430 bushels of wheat and 80
bushels of oats. In 1890 they ate 62S
bushels Of wheat and 1856 bushels of
oats, and in 1890 the breakfast food
movement was small to what it is to-
day. The general gain in vegetable
expense is so per cent. Meat still
leads, although it apparently will not
do so long. Americans have grown
healthier in the half century which
has seen this change, probably, how
ever, on account of more air and ex-
ercise and better cooking and santa

As the Chicago Man Registered.

There are certain Scotch lairds who
take the names of their respective es-
tates, using the name of the property
instead of their surnames, says the
Saturday Evening Post. One such was
"Cluny" Macpherson, with reference
to whom Mr.. Henry White, secretary
of the American embassy at London,
tells the following:
The Scot and his wife were guests
at house party in England where
there We're also visiting a Chicago
man and his wife. When the latter,
in accordance with the practice
abroad, came to register in the Wis
itors' book, he perceived just above
the space in which he was to write,
the following inscription:
Cluny and Mrs. Macpherson.
Whereupon the Chicago man, chuc-
king to himself, appended these
words:

Gen. Miles and the Raw recruit.

when Gen. Miles was in Porto
Rico. as commanding general of the
United States troops, raw recruit
from Tennessee was detailed for duty
as his orderly, says the Milwaukee
Sentinel. The recruit knew absolute
ly nothing of military etiquette, and
on receiving orders to report to the
commanding general for duty he
sauntered over to the tent of that dig
nitary, where the general was in con-
ference with several staff officers.
Entering the tent without the for
mality of a salute, the Tennesseean
remarked, well, Miles, did you want
to see me?"
Gen. Miles bristled up. Don't call
me Miles," he began irritably. Then
the humor of the situation dawned on
him.. and he added with a grim smile
That's too formal. Call me Nelse."
Then he proceeded to read the re-
