HORSEBACK DINNER WHICH

"A wearied, bored group Of men,"
he says, arranged a dinner. They
had been attending dinners until such
functions had lost interest for them.
Similarly their friends were wearied
by the conventional dinner Of the
time. why not prepare a meal the
like of which had never been before?
Why not amuse Society and astonish
the part Of the community that is
outside Of Society? They did so. The
dinner was served on horseback on
the upper floor of fashionable New
York resort, the name Of which Is
known from coast TO coast. The
guests were attired in riding clothes.
The handsomely groomed horses
pranced and clattered about the mag
nifcent dining room. each bearing,
besides its rider miniature table.
The hoofs Of the animals were Gov

the waxed floor from destruction. Al

A MOTHER CALLOUS IN THE
FACE OF DEATH.

When he reached home he saw
that the hotel was ablaze with light,
for Madame \ was about to give a
great ball, at which all fashionable
Paris was expected. Needless of
anything save the monstrous accusa-
ton, the boy rushed into his mothers
boudoir and gave her the fatal letter.
exclaiming as he did so: Read this
You must, / beg Of you, tell me it is
untrue"
"His mother read the letter
slowly; thereupon she crumpled it up
and threw it across the room with
gesture of supreme disdain. Then
she turned to her son and said:
BY what right do you dare to
show me this?'
BY the right Of my love for you
he replied.
81 refuse to answer any questions
that refer to this letter answered
Madame X in freezing accents. BE
good enough TO leave me-
So, cried the poor boy. you
can't, you won't, deny it! Then it
must be true"
Half mad with shame and grief
he rushed to the window and threw
himself out before his mothers eyes.
He was dashed to pieces on the pave
ment below, but Madame y seemed
absolutely callous, for her one fear
was that her ball might have TO be
cancelled if her sons awful end be-
came known She gave orders that
the body should be taken upstairs,
and then she descended to the ball
room, where the first guests were
beginning TO arrive.
The evening was a brilliant sue
cess, and the dancers were unaware
Of the presence of death in that
lovely glittering house; indeed, the
coroner was not notified until the
next day Gradually, however, the
truth leaked out, and when society
realized the horrible heartlessness
of which Madame x had been guilty
she found many doors closed against
her, and it's only just lately that
she's begun to be received again.

THEATRICAL AND LITERARY
LIGHTS.

Il must not forget that we nave
had distinguished members of the
theatrical and literary world for
neighbors. Lady Seafield had given
a cottage on the estate to Mr.. Lewis,
the>hushand of Kate Terry, and one
year Sir Henry Irving came to stop
there. Irving dined at Balmacaan,
and also made the acquaintance of
Miss Ellen Terry and her sisters
Marion and Kate After Mrs. Lewis
gave up the cottage. Sir James Bar
RE took 1t, and we often used to meet
the famous novelist, pipe in mouth,
leading a donkey, which was usually
ridden by one of the many children
staying at his house.
II believe that What Every Wom-
an Knows was written about that
time. Our neighbor was always
willing TO assist at the entertain
ments we got up for the tenants, but
he could never be induced to lunch
or dine with us
Mr.. Martin has much 10 say con-
corning the famous Bradley Martin
ball, that took place in New York
City seventeen years ago.
The ball was fixed for February
10 1897. and a day or two before
Mrs. Martin met Theodore Roose-
welt in the street. I'm very pleased
that you and Mrs. Roosevelt are
coming to the ball." she said.
"'Oh,' he replied, my wife's going
because she's got her costume. but
as one of the commissioners I shall
be outside looking after the police
Il think every one anticipated
disturbance, but nothing Of the kind
took place, and the evening passed
without any untoward incident.

CONDEMNATION OF AFFAIR
SURPRISED HIM.

II cannot conceive why this enter
tainment should have been con-
demned. We Americans are so accus-
toned to display that / should have
thought the ball would not have been
regarded as anything very unusual.
Every one said it was the most brill
liant function of the kind ever seen In
America. and it certainly was the
most talked about.
After the ball the authorities
promptly raised my brothers taxes
quite out of proportion to those paid
by any one else. and the matter was
settled only after a very acrimonious,
dispute. Bradley and his wife re-
scented intensely the annoyance 10
which they had been subjected
they decided to sell their hoY =
New York and buy a reside
London"
The ball in Mr. Martins IN
was a proper and natural - to
expend money. But the tendency Of
the rich to turn TO extreme and alb
normal amusements is deplored by
him. In 1.-The Passing of the Idle
Rich" he gives many examples OF
such amusements and the absurd
lengths to which wealthy Americans
are driven in the effort to obtain re-
lief from ennui.
