NEW YORK. Nov, 22.-"It was a
wonderfully brilliant night-up to and

That is how the beautiful young
wife of Alfred Gwynn Vanderbilt de-
scribed, in her apartments of the Ho-

first night of the horse show. 1t is
the first big fashionable function in
this country at which she has appeared
since she became the wife of the mil

Il have seen many wonderful aggre-
cations of women in London and on
the continent since l left America. But
American women need envy no women
for they are Of Incompatible beauty

Mrs Vanderbilt.
Told that her wonderful costume at

and said:

Her Wardrobe Is Wonderful.
Despite the young matron's protesta-

her gowns that no woman in New York
possesses the wouderfuJ wardrobe OF
Mrs. Vanderbilt. Her gowns have been
made by the greatest modistes in the

Sam Wasserman, who provides the

from his news wagon uptown and took
the nickel. Just behind the travelling
man came swarthy organ grinder
who let his monkey climb over the

broken English for the latest issue Of
L'Arado Italiano. Behind him came a
decrepit workman who dug a nickel

always wanted that paper and nothing
else.

said Sam. The Atlanta papers are all
right on the big news, but, of course,
they can't carry all the little stuff about
home folks that man finds in the pa
per from his own home town. There
was a guy used 20 come by here every
month or two and get little paper
from Iowa, and he wrote me a piece Of
poetry. I stuck it up on the wagon, and

Governor Brown says he wishes it
made plain that the boys corn club
prizes won in Cherokee by Thomas
Payne, Homer Atkins and John San
dow-the first named being the winner
of the first prize throughout the Sew
enth district-were won entirely by the
boys own efforts, and that they indi-
Vidually and severally deserve all the
glory attaching to their performances
The story has been published that
this winning yield-157 2-3 bushels TO
the aCre-was made on the governors
Cherokee county farm-which is true.
But the governor insists that 1t be re-
corded carefully that he did not do the
raising. He thinks it glory enough to
have furnished the land upon which
such creditable work was done by these
sturdy young Georgians.

Campbell Wallace, OF the. Georgia
railroad commission. employs in his
daily labors an interesting relic of the
long ago-a paperweight Of burned
clay, upon which is modelled an excel
lent likeness of Grover Cleveland
This paperweight was made when
Cleveland was a candidate for presi-
dent the first time-in 1884. to be exact
That makes the thing % years old,
which is quite respectable age for a
paperweight. 1t shows Cleveland as a
relatively young man, in the very flow
er OF vigorous vitality.
This veteran among clerical equip
ments probably was brought into the
office by one of the members of the
earlier commissions, and it has been
there, in constant use, ever since. And
1t looks very little the worse for wear,
too.
Wallace is thinking now of getting it
a Woodrow Wilson companion, in order
that it may be retired eventually to
honorable inactivity, and preserved as
a glorious souvenir of the Democratic
past in this land of the free and home
of the brave.
