London, Oct. 7.-Ono henrs less of tho
Pro-Ilaphaclito society of Ixndou than
formerly, yet tho society, mado up of
tho best literary nnd nrtlstlo circles, still
exists In London, nnd holds its meetings
as heretofore. Among them thoro nro
Bovernl persons whoso unities nro house
hold words in America and many
moro who nro famous in tunny walks of
llfo which do not bring them Into such
prominenco in America. To gain nn en
trance into tho charmed circle of liter
ary and artistic London ono needs to bo
of tho guild, but onco 'in a while it docs
happen that an outsider, I lko myself,
who only pretends to sing n little, gets n
peep nt tho lions.
Recently I wns invited to a delightful
home in a suburb of London, not far
from '"Amstead 'Eath,"aaourcnbdrivor
called it, nnd thoro wns ho fortuunto as
to meet among n number of artists, play
wrights nnd litorary people generally,
Jean Ingolow, tho sweetest poet who
over wroto about children, and Christina
Itosctti, tho nlmont inspired woman who
writes poems which nro llko sacramental
wtno nnd bread, nnd thnt dear whlto
haired old lady, Mrs. Trollopo, besides
Lady Mary DutTtts-IIardy and her daugh
ter Iza wero there. There woro n num
ber of famous men present, but I only
learned tho names of Dr. Egmont Hako
nnd Mr. Watts. Dr. Hako is tall and
slender, but so gcntlo nnd kind that
every ono loves him, nnd his silvery hair
is an attraction to ovory ono of tho wo
men, although, perhaps, his beautiful
poems had first mado them his friends,
for thny aro puro and sweet nnd elevnt
lug. Mrs. Trollopo has grown out of tho
fretful Invalid state, whero, shaking with
chills and fever nnd suffering from a
multitude of Ills, she wroto that ravage.
book about America as it was in tlio wild
west fifty years ago, and now, If sho
could wrlto of this country, it would be
with u pen flipped In honey, for alio I
ripe and full of all tho tenderness thnt
many yeaiHtmd much wisdom bring.
Many Americans know Lady Hardy,
for hIio has always been tho friend of
Americans in Loudon, and sho has also
traveled very extensively in our coun
try. Sho has written, perhaps, twenty
novels, all three-volume, cloth bound,
nnd a book of her travels in America,
whero sho went with licr daughter after
the death of her husband, tho lato Sir
Thomas Duffus-IIardy.
Lady Hardy is n largo woman, with a
lino flguro and a genial, good faco, sur
mounted by a crown of snow whlto hair.
Her daughter Is vory slender and tall,
with largo bluooyes and very long, thick
hair. Sho was considered ouoof tho most
beautiful girls in England n fow years
ago, but, I was told, a sorrow of som
kind fell upon lujr and sho has changed
gtcatly, but nothing can ever tako from
hor that touching graco of face and man
ner, though it is somewhat melancholy.
She also has written many novels, some
of which aro very sweet and interesting.
Their homo at North Bank, Regent's
park, is cralxnvered in trees, and is most
charming in its truly English type, and
is the resort of all tho best and brightest
minds in London.
I began by speaking of sweet Jean
Ingelow, that lovely, lovable little old
maid who writes tho beautiful mother
poems. Sho is a tiny body, with almost
Infautilo hands and feet and soft gray
eyes. Her faco is ono marked by genius,
yet sho has a timid, quiot manner and
such a swcot, low volco. She woro a
gray surah dre6s, mado with a surpllco
waist and a plain full skirt and leg o'
mutton sleeves, with muslin cuffs and n
tulle tucker around her nock, and this
was fastened with a llttlo oval pin with
a lock of hair in it. Her hair is gray,
but thick and wavy, and gathered into a
knot at tho back of tho neck.
Christina Rosetta is dark, but her skin
is clear and puro, llko ivory. Her hair
Is abundant and wavy, and her forehead
low and broad, over a pair of oyos like
thoso wo nro so familiar witli in tlio pic
ture of "EvangeUno"ileop, dark, pa
tient and steadfast, Feeing things alxvc
and beyond us. Situ is slow of speech
and chary of words, ami somehow makes
you think sho is always listening to an-
el voices. Sho is slight and f ragilo, and
Oresses in soft heavy black silk, with a
llttlo rare lace at tho neck and for cuds,
and Jets her pretty, blue veined hands
lie utterly idle in her lap. Her smile is
slower than that of Jean Ingelow and
not so taking. -
I had meant to say much moro of our
ovening but shall be obliged to defer
tho rest to another titno.

goftollno torch In tho streets nt nlghtt but
most of thniohavn Ixxmlmml organ men, with
monkoys nnd erforniliig bears, or bovlcs of
caimrlcs that ran up nnd down tiny and frail
wooden ladders In nu ocn enrt, and amused
coplo by doing audacious tricks. Tlio Inst
genaral nMoinhly paused a statute ngalnst
boars nnd other roving nnlnmls, but thoy
como Juat tho same.
Tlio most novel show cntuo this week. Two
Italians, a hand orgnn, n yellow informing
goat nnd n tnonkoy wero washed up out of tho
storm, Just as tho clouds rolled by. Tho cool
sunlluht and toulo nutumn air stirred both
gont and tnonkoy to do tholr Ixat, and thoy
did It so very well thnt even tho Italians, n
woiias tho iwpuinee, grinned with delight,
Doth wuro hlirhly educated Tho tnonkoy was
dressed In n buff colored cont, with Jaunty
pockots In It, nnd ho woro belli J tho gnat woro
simply his own undressed kid.
First tho goat crawled up tho small wooden
performing pedestal, clumsily pulling his foot
after him, and did what ho could do, rearing
nnd pawing tho air; but ho looked foolish and
stupid. Ids wisp of board fluttering In tho
wind. Then ho got down nnd tho monkey
got up. Tho latter mado somo funny grim
ncos,whlch oxcltod npplauso, and his wrinkled
llttlo face put on a w of til or gleeful look ac
cordingly as his master said "Uravol" or
IKikod him In tho ribs with a sharp rod.
Dut tho best of tho performance took place
after tho show. After tho monkey got down
ono of tho Italians slyly stepiwd out of the
crowd, slipped Into a corner saloon, and pres
ently emerged bearing n foaming glass of
boor. Ho didn't Imbtbo any of it himself,
but with a grlu took It to his friends, tho goat
and tho tnonkoy. IIo ol!toly offered it first
to tho goat, but that unsophisticated cronturo
turned any his faco In disdain and would
not look nt tho flowing bowl.
"IIo, hoi" oxclnlmod his Tuscan master,
"non-nhavo boor-af Hnl Oont-a no know
what 00s goot-a, oh I Monk-nco havo somo
boor-af Say-a yeosf 80, so, tnonk-n know-a
goot ting; goat-a dntnplionl-al"
Tho "inonk-n" took 110 risk of losing tho
drink. With tho skill of n practiced toper ho
raised tlio fluid to his thirsty mouth and
drained ovory drop m tho glass. Ho even
held tho upturuod mug a momotit aloft, his
lips at tho odgo, so as not to miss a globule
of tho precious liquid. Then ho gracefully
hnndod It back with n poll to bow, wiped his
puckored faco on his sloovo nnd tho crowd
roared.
"Ouly nionk-n In to Mcrlky, gousholmens,
tat drlnk-a roos boer-n zoo ov'ry tiny," said
tho proud master, glancing admiringly at
tho llttlo boast.
"All of which shows," commented n street
Clillosophor, "tho wldo Intellectual difference
etween 'too monk-a' and '200 goat-a ;' ex
hibits tho susceptibility of tho monk-a to tho
Influences of civilization, and is knockdown
ovldonco of tho 'origin of man.1 "
Now Haven Is still hi a tustlo with n per
forming boar. Both tho benrand his master,
a shrewd Frenchman, wero nrrostod and
lodged in tho police station charged with vio
lating tho "boar statute" of Connecticut. Tho
Frenchman had nionoy enough to pay the
fines Imposed, but uot enough to hire a wagon
in which to transport tho bear from his
prison. IIo couldn't lead Bruin through tho
strcots without violating tho statuto again,
so ho had to go awny without his pot. Tho
pollco station still has tho boar, which is feed
ing on tho fat of tho laud nnd is happy, but
tho pollco don't want him. Thoy may bo
nblo to sell him, and thoy may kill and eat

"I read your story tho other day about Ep
