Charles Dudley Warner says that New York could better afford to board all its. criminals at a hotel at 1 $8 a day than to maintain its present system of treating them. An advocate for the eating of horso flesh claims that it is the heathiest .flesh in the world, as the horse is not subject to tuberculosis, like' cattle and trichinosis, like hogs. -: The Ber.

The Ohicasro Times-Herald thints some uniformity should be introduced ; in the pronunciation of Iowa. It is variously spoken in Congress, d "I-owab," "I-oway" - and ' "I-owy," with the accent on the first syllable; JE-o-wy" and "I-o-way," with the ac- cent . on the second syllable, and "I-a-way," with the accent on the ., third syllable. None of these is cor- '. reot. Senators Allison and Gear and v the members of the Iowa delegation agree that "I-o-wah," with a little ao . cent on the first and emphasis on the final syllable is the only right thing. The conference' of mutual accident . insurance companies of the United States, which assembled in Boston re oently to discuss the bicycle rider am an accident risk, has ; finished its de- liberations. The results are disastrous to ths bicycle riders. ; The following resolutions were unanimously passed : Besolved, That the use of the bicycle' . should be covered by additional cost' or a reduction of the amount of death! and indemnity benefits, and it is rec ommended that this be provided for by either of the following methods: - 1. The adequate increase of premiums v to cover' the added risk; or, 2. The classification, an occupation of bicycle! riders in a class twice as hazardous' as the preferred risk. 3. That benefits by accidents by bicycle riding bej specifically reduced. 4. Theinclud ing of bicycling under the policies , to! .. be covered only by specific permits at! ; an-extra premium," The next thing to come, suggests the New Orleans 'Picayune, may be the refusal of life insurance compances to take risks on the lives of bicycle riders. . .

PBTT EIDGfE. HE Albany runs o r rather saun ters f rom Vigo street to . Piccadil ly, It is a quiet space, and the glass roofed, ave nue gives it an added air of seclusion. Baohelprs live in the Albany, and are tended by discreet, pale faced house keepers, to ; whom they commonly leave in their wills 50 and several old silk hats. .- , "I think," said Mr. Bobert Mep sted to himself, with one foot pressed hard against the mantelpiece at No. 6 M, "that J should like to see her just once again. Only onoe, mind t There are one or two things I should like to say casually to her, just to show that I am quite contented as I am." The youngest tenant in the Albany sighed. Now, it is not usual for men who brag of being contented to sigh. "There's a popular impression," .went on Mr. Bobert Mepsted, argu mentatively, "fhatfa bachelor must be lonely. It is a most mistaken impres sion. It is high time that the world reoognized what a blunder this is. There is no more preposterous:" Mr. Bobert Mepsted, turninground in his easy chair to argue with an imaginary opponent, stopped. In the doorway was Mrs. .Long, his house .keeper, with a card on a brass waiter a squarish card, which Mrs. Iong presented with an air of some reluct ance. "Lady Westenhanger : and Miss "Westenhanger," read Mepsted. He turned away, that Mrs. Long (whom he feared) should not see his face red den. ; "Are they - er waiting, Mrs. Long?" ' r, "I have shown the ladies, sir," said Mrs. Long, trembling with the knowl edge of having done the right thing "into the sitting room. Shall I tell them you are not at home, sir?" ; "I will come in there." i "Ho I" said Mrs. Long, disappoint edly. Mepsted stood for a moment at the door of the room. He wanted, above all things, to-regain his self-composure ; he desired also to remember the few satirical remarks that he had pro posed for this emergency. The sound of her voice within, arguing gently with her shrill-voiced mother, sent the sarcasms and they were uncom monly good sarcasms -effectually out of his head. . "My dear Mr. Mepsted, I am so glad we found you in. Mary and I were in town, and we were making calls, and Mary suggested-" "We had not seen you for some time," interrupted Mary Westenhang er, hurriedly. "It's too good of yon both to call, said Bobert Mepsted. , "Can I give you tea or something? I am rather awkward at playing host at present, but I shall get used to the game with practice. Some bachelors I know manage very well." "I want," said Lady Westenhanger, "to call in at Bond street i and 6ee a jeweler man. So thet I don't think we'll4 trouble you, Mr. Mepsted." V "Do you want to go to Bond street, Miss Westenhanger ?" : ?Not in the least, Mr. Mepsted. I don't like jewelry:" That's a most outrageous remark to make," said Lady Westenhanger, with severity. "I oonsider it almost impious. . Every woman should " ' "Then how would it be," suggested. Mr. Mepsted, genially, f or you, Lady Westenhanger, to drive round to Bond street, for you, Miss Westenhanger, to remain here, and for - my house keeper to give us tea?, I've been writing all the afternoon, and I.want a oup. This was where Mary Westenhanger Bhowed k strategy worthy of a field marshal. . ; :i . i' "I think I had better go with mam ma," she said, mfldly. v n "And I think," said Lady Westen hanger, with severity; "that you will do nothing of the sort. . You will re main here, Mary, until 1 return, t Mr. Mepsted is hot like one' who is a new friend of the family." - "Lady Westenhanger," said Bobert Mepsted, "you are always right." He pressed the electrio knob and gave to Mrs. Long directions. "Let me see you to your carriage. Miss -Westenhanger, can t you find an illustrated paper to look at until I return ?" i ; "I don't think'I care for art,' she said, quietly, 'just now." t Mr. . Bobert Mepsted returned very 4niokly. :, Mary - Westenhanger was looking, with her, hands clasped be-; hind her, at a portrait of his mother, and when she turned there were tears In her eyes. x , - 1 -. . . ; Tea already here?" be exclaimed, breezily. ."What a capital manager Mrs. Long is ! Will you pour out, Miss Westenhanger?'' , , - "I still-possess a ; Christian name,' -she remarked,, as she obeyed. : ' Ton haven't discarded everything, then?" , , Mr. Bobert Mepsted made a mental note of the soore. Sarcasm "number one.- - ' ,i : . " : - . . "I wanted particularly&to see you," she said. She lifted her cup, but her hand trembled, and she replaced it on the table where it , was safe. "I'm afraid that I was very stupid and un reasonable when we met last."- "I don't like to contradict you," he said. -' "And I well, I want .to apologize, Bobert. ; In a general way, I can bear my mother .pretty, well, but on that day she had been more than' usually trying." "I don't think we need say any more about it, Mary. - . Do you really mean that ?" she asked, quickly. "I mean that we need not trouble to rake no old grievances, it is a species of gardening that I don't care for. All that we need do now is to Bee that we remain good friends for the future." "and nothing more than friends?" "Whatmore could we be?", i. "WeiL" , said Mary Westenhanger, crumbling the cake unnecessarily, and making of it a carefully-built pyramid, "you said once you would be my husband." - ' ' "And you said once that I should not." . 'Only onoe," she remarked, ner vously. "The number is .small, bat suf ficient." Bbbert Mepsted felt quite a glow of admiration at his unbending sternness. He was behaving with much more courage than he had credited himself with. "The faot of it is, Mary, life in (the Albany, with pleasant rooms and plenty of work, is rather enjoyable. One has no cares, no trammels, and " "And ho companion. "The face, " said Bobert Mepsted, with an effort, "is the oomble de joie." She rose from the table and walked again to the portrait. "She was the kindest friend I ever had," said Mary Westenhanger. ,fHo w good this. is of her?" "My mother," said Bobert Mepsted, rising and standing beside her, "was always good. She was the only per son that knew of our engagement.". . "I anvglad that nobody else knew. We havabeen saved the congratula tions of our friends. And I want to ask you something, Bobert. There is no necessity for anybody ever to know, is there?" v "No necessity at all, dear. I would rather keep it as a pleasant secret, to remember all my life. They were the brightest of days, those, and I . shall never, never forget them." "It is worth coming here," she said impulsively, "to hear you say so. I should not have called if I had be lieved that. And 1 thought that perhaps there might be more such days in the future." , "The stock is exhausted," said Mr. Mepsted, decidedly. She took very slowly a ring from her finger. It Was a little reluctant to move, being a ring that studied ap pearance and liked an effective back ground. "I did not send this back," said Mary Westenhanger, "because I did not like to give it up. But I believe that it is usual in these situations to do so." "I have had little experience," he said, "but if that is the rule let us make an exception. I would rather you kept it. It will be something to remind you of me when when we are older." Mrs. Long, looking in to see if any thing was wanted, noted with some disturbance that the two young peo ple were standing rather closely to gether. Mrs. Long coughed the cough of warning and withdrew with an apology. ' 'Will Lady Westenhanger be mMsh longer ?'r said Mepsted, anxiously. He felt that his. reserve of sternness was giving out, and to listen to her quiet voice and to watch her eyes for many moments longer would be fatal. "Mamma usually has a good deal to say to shopkeepers, but she will be back directly." , v "And then we shall say good by again, I suppose ?" "Somehow, in spite of all this, I'm not sorry that I've called," she said, thoughtfully. "It has been a great delight to me." "I blamed myself for quarreling with you before, Bobert, but that now now that this afternoon has hap pened, why, nobody can blame me." "That's true. However long I live I must always feel that my bachelor hood is, due to myself and to no one else." , , , She looked round swiftly. x "Are youi going to be a bachelor all your life, Bobert?" ' ' Why, Jyes. Of course. I don't want tb 'marry anybody else I mean to say, I'm comfortable ' enough as I am. And I dare say when we're twen ty years older we " shall meet some where and we shall decide that it's all been for the best. I, as a- bachelor, you, as an old maid, will " "I beg your pardon?" "I say that you, as an old maid, will" "I am afraid that "you are peering into the future, Bobert, without your glasses I shall marry." . . . The newspaper fell from his hand.. "But but ; you said that ; you did not care for any one else 1" "I don't see how .that ; affeots the matter, I have a proposal in my pocket now." . "Show it to me." " ' "If you say, 'please' " said Mary Westenhanger.. And when Bobert obeyed" she took from, her .bodice a letter. , - , ' ' . - 'But this man ' is one of the most fearful -rounders' in , town 1" cried Robert MeDsted. distractedly. - "YouV of course, said 'No, '.at once, dear" ; l thought it better to wait, Bobert. It is not wise to be impetuous in these matters." v But surely, Mary y ou woul d never dream " " , - He stopped, because his indigna tion half choked him. t ; "I do, sometimes. I dreamt once that you and I were going to be very happy, together.1. But as that is not likely to . occur, why, an alternative course has to be adopted." . He took her hand suddenly. "Mary, you mustn't do this. I said I -was happy, but that was all brag. I'm miserable without you, and I'm punishing myself more than I can' bear. Let us see what we can do." . "Hadn't we better put our heads together?" suggested Miss Westen hanger, shyly. - Mrs. Long explained the whole affair the following morning to a lady friend, who managed the rooms of Colonel Dunkerley at No. 7 M. "I could see it all, Mrs. What-is-it, with 'alf an eye, '' said Mrs. -Long, dis contentedly. 'There's him with the 'ump, as you may say, and ; a way of looking at his coffee before he drank it, as though he was, in . a manner of speaking, lost in thought; there's her, a tall, good-looking, cheerful girl, with tears in her eyes Before she'd been there five minutes; and there's her mother a-trotting off to Bond street to 'aggie with a shop keeper, and when my lady came back and caught them kissing one another and had her tantrums, why, as I said io myself, 'What on earth could you expect?' " The lady at No. 7 M. said, philoso phically, as she frightened a kitten away , with her brush, that human nature was much the same, no matter what ."spere" of life you come across it. "That's all very well," said Mrs. Long, aggrievedly; "but how about me ? As likely as not I shall 'ave some cantankerous old military gent to look after now. What I think is, people ought to 'ave more consideration, one for the other." Wild Hog3 of Arizona. The wildest of wild hogs live both above and below the Yuma, Arizona, on the Colorado Biver. When the late Thomas Bly the was trying to settle a colony at Lerdo, .forty-five miles below Yuma, on the Colorado, he sent do wn a large , number of very fine full-blooded Berkshire and Poland China pigs and turned them loose on the banks of the river near Lerdo, where they lived on roots, grass, weeds, tulesand mesquite beams, bred and multiplied, kept fat and filled the low and tule lands with a large number of fine porkers. Never seeing a human being except now and then a lone Indian, they soon became wild, and wilder still, and scattered until the wood and lowlands were full of them. Notwithstanding that the coyotes slaughtered the little ones in great numbers, they have in creased until it is estimated that at the present time there are more than 10, 000 of them roaming up and down the Colorado and Hardie. Bivers, from their, mouths up as high as the tide runs -or rom sixty-five to seventy miles from the Gulf. Their range gives ' them the finest of feed - wild sweet potatoes, tules, stay fish, clams, dead turtles and seaweed along the river bank at low tide. They are un molested except now and then by a hunter who finds his way down the river. Montana Stookman and Farmer. . Cellulose for Warships Lewis Nixon, the former superin tendent of construction at Cramps' shipyard, read a paper the other even ing in Philadelphia upon corn pith cellulose paoking for warships. Mr. Nixon explained that when this sub stance was punctured at the water line by a shot the cellulose expanded like a sponge and stopped the leak. The tests of the new material under Gov ernment supervision were so satisfac tory that the Navy Department con tracts call for this substance in the coffer dams of the new battle ships Kearsarge and Kentucky. Mr. Nixon said he considered that one ot the chief points of superiority of our ves sels lay in the use of the cellulose belt, that, in fact, he considered its use vital. A cellulose .belt three feet thick, he added, was equal, to one of steel armor six inches thick ; or, in other words, 100 tons of cellulose was equal to 1000 tons of armtr, while the cost was one to ten.

' REM ARKABLE PEN tl ANSHIP .1 6454 WOBDS OIJ A rusxaxi UAiiiJ. Putting on a Space of 3x5 Inclies as Much Writing as Is Contained In 1 Eighteen Printed Pages. ; ' MOST remarkable feat of penmanship is that just ac complished ' by L. A. Grin court, a young Frenchman now rfiflidinfir in this city. So remark able is it that its accomplishment would seem beyond belief were it not for the positive and tangible evidence that ho man, no matter how incredul ous he may be, can dispute. As it is, the perfected work stands as the best known record -for diminutive pen writing) and marks the author, as the possessor of a peculiar talent of which he is easily a master. , On the back of an ordinary postal card Mr. Grincourt has written 5451 words. In doing this he used a steel pen of the pattern commonly used by card writers. It must not be supposed that the words written on the card were selected because of their brevity, for such , is not, the case. , The written words are a portion of a story the first eighteen pages of Emil Zola's historical romance, "La Debacle" ("The War"). Each word is on the card in the order in which it appears in the original text, a space of 8x5 inches containing the same phrases, sentenoes,v words and letters as are contained in eighteen pages of printed matter. So minute are the letters formed by the pen that the naked eye can scarcely distinguish them, and the most . perfect vision re quires the aid of a powerful magnify ing glass to enable one to read them. Perhaps the most wonderful feature of this most wonderful piece of work, is the perfect form and alignment of the letters. Each of , the 110 lines across the card is perfeotly straight, every word and letter being as exact in form as if printed from a copper plate. Nothing is missing. The shad ing of the capitals, the dots of the i's and crosses of the t's and the punctu ation marks are all in proper place and form. The most critical teacher of penmanship would be content to take any portion of the written words, and after magnifying them . to the proper size, use them as a copy to set before his pupils. The magnitude of the task which Mr. Grincourt set for himself can be better understood when the result of his "work is considered in comparison with more homely facts. For in stance, to a person writing at ordinary speed from dictation it would require between four and five hours' time to write , what is written on the postal card. If the person wrote in the feize and style used ao copies in Spencerian . school copy books, it would require between seventy and one hundred pages of ordinary note, paper to con tain the words written on the card. If the words on the postal card were set up in the style of type used in print ing the more important news in the Examiner and leaded, they would fill about five full columns of space in the paper. If the printed words were set together in a continuous line they would reach a distance of 1364 inches, or 113 feet. In all no less than 25, 834 letters appear on the wonderful postal card. :'; -'--'H- The best previous record for, a simi lar performance was made by a New York man about eighteen months ago. He succeeded in writing 4200 words on a postal card, and the performance was considered to be out of reach of competion. Previous to -that Mr. Grincourt had written 3500 words on a piece of paper, of equal size, and it was to exceed this record that the New York expert set to work with such wonderful results. . Now Mr. Grincourt has set a new mark so' far in advance of anything yet .done in this lin e that it is fair to presume it will stand as the record for a long time to come. - ""r ;'- ' - The author of this remarkable ex ample of penmanship was born in France twenty-nine years ago. ; After leaving school at the age of eighteen, he, through the. influence of his fam ily, secured a Government position as clerk in the Naval offices at Brest. There he was afforded an excellent op portunity to perfect his handwriting and to acquire the skill with the pen necessary to perform the feats of pen manship of which this la3t ia the crowning ' example. About three years ago he resigned his position to accept the California agency of a firm of wine merchants in Bordeaux, France. Since then he has been liv ing in San Francisco, his peculiar ac complishment being now used only as a means for his own amusement. The postal card with its microscopic characters has been mounted by Mr. Gaincourt in a manner best calculated to accentuate . its character, i It is placed in the center of a white field almost ; four feet; square. Within a circle, the extreme circumference of which tohohes the outer frame on four sides, is written, in handwriting of the ordinary size, the same text as appears on the postal card in the cen ter. Four ordinary : . postal cards, stamp side out, are placed one in each corner, that the beholder may be sure the card containing the wiiting is not larger than the regular card. The whole is enclosed in a heavy antique oak frame, and forms an exhibit as rare as it is wonderful. San - Fran cisco Examiner. .
