Lnvntor has told tis how to rend chnmctor In tho fenturus and Spurzliolm lias given us tho langtiago of our bumps, but if thoro is not as much chnractor in tho way poo plo Bhako hands, thou both of theso phi losophers nro dead failures. A clono olxwrvcr, and ono who writes whereof ho knows, has taken tho palim to record tho characteristics of boiiio of tho best known iooplo In this respect, nud thiw prcscuU his experience: President Ilnrrinon glve ono an inter rogatory port of grip that pcoius to imply Uio Idea "Can I trust your When James G, Dlalno takes your hand, italwnya imprcHsos you with tho notion that ho Is glad to boo you, whether ho is or not. William L. Hvarts glvos you only his fingers, and bccuih to bvgrudgo tho tlmo spent in tho 0Hirntlou. Dlplotimtlenlly, ho will Homutlmcs spjiro his wholu hand, Ex-President Clovoland has a chubby hand, which ho pub) into yours in a hur ried manner that seeins to Bay, "I'm a busy man pass on." Rev. T. Do Witt Talmngo has n hand brood and henrty, nnd when thu Brook lyn doiuinio wlflheH to einphafilr.o a jioltit it comes down llko a spilo driver, Cyrus W. Field has a long, wiry hand, betokening caution nud nfltutene.sa, and ho scorns almost unwilling to glvo you oven a part of its palm. Edwin Booth has a hand which a womnn might envy. Its gnwp is gentle, and tho esuence of politcucHS itself. Ilonry Irving glvesonoa "Mr, Mention shako," and then his hand seems to re treat up his coat sleovo as If it was ashamed of Itself, O.scar Wlhlo lias a ghostly, clammy hand, such as might havo lel()iiged to Uriah Heep. Tho touch makes ono feel llko rubbing his own imnd afterwards to restoro lost warmth. Billy Florence's dlgita twined within thoso of a friend plainly say: "Now, nono of that. Conio, l'vo got you, you know, nnd you go tjuletly along with mo to thu IIolTmnu house." Ahrnm Hewitt now nnd then shakes bunds as If ho were delivering tin opinion that grated on his own hinges. When Insjiector Hyrnos joins palms with some Ktraugers ho looks nud nets ns if they weio catalogued in n collection of rarities, if not, tio roguo's gallery. To hii friends ills clnsp is cordial and em phatic. Tho late Thurlow Weed had a sinewy hand though soft, and when you took it you felt whnt n good and trusty com panion it was to liis honest brow nnd gray hair. Horace Greeley woa not a great Imnd shaker, but when ho did indulge in thu Ralntatlon, his hand could bo cither n sledgo hammer or n scalpel. Sunset Cox! What should ho havo but a genial shako that carried in it tho smilo of his nature? Poor Maurlco Strakosch used to play a sort of rock-a-by-baby motion with tho hand given him to shake, no would first press it to his heart, kiss it and then return it with thanks. P, S. Gilmoro, tho famous maestro, also has a foreign way of fondling tho fingers laid in his, seeming loath to re turn them to their rightful owner, but no ono objects to this in tho genial "Pat." Thomas A. Edison, tho wizard inventor, has n jorky stylo which Bays as plainly as words, "Just so much of my tlmo wasted." If Capt. Dunsby wcro in tho flesh, "Undo" Rufus Hatch, of Wall street, could giro him points in heartiness of grip and "go him ono better." Chief Justico Fuller is known to bo a largo hearted, poetical gentleman, but ho oscillates his digital extremities with as much gravity, when "beforo folks," as if ho wero delivering a judicial opin ion. Socially, thero is no discount on their warmth. When Chauncoy Dopow takes vigorous hold of an old friend, which ho is apt to do, tho friend aforesaid usually feels llko putting his hand in hospital. Vice President Morton's hands nro llko velvet. When ho nnd Chauncoy Indulge in a palmar ombraco thero is a Damon and Pythias stylo about tho operation that is touching to tho bystanders. Tho characteristic of Jay Gould's grasp Is that ho wants to "cut It short." That's in tho Western Union building. At Irvington-on-tho-IIudson it means "Ah, therol Stay therol" Equally Indicative of tho financial and social conditions of tho atmosphere is tho shako of John Jacob Astor. It may bo a incro touch of tho fingers or tho loyal ombraco of a wholo hand, but "there's millions in it." A pump hnndlo would cmphaslzo ono's feelings quite as eloquently as Senator Edmunds when ho tries to bo "hail fol low well met." Bob Iiigereoll well, his Is a model shako, natural, magnetic and captivat ing. It's liko an overturn by a full band, which you expect will bo followed by softer melodies on tho stringed instru ments. Mrs. President Harrison docs not put much empresscment in her publlo greet ing, her manner being reserved; but in prlvato tho pressuro of her shapely hand shows that she oilers a wealth of wel come. Mrs. G rover Cleveland gives ono tho faintest semblanco of a squeeze, which every person Individually appropriates, and is consequently mado happy, Ella Wheeler Wilcox puts as much passion in her hand shaking as sho does In her poetry. Mrs. IJjirnoy Williams takes your hand In both of hers with a cordiality that says "You aro welcome; what is initio is yours." Mrs. John A. Logan, in slinking hands, gives you thu impression that you aro "all in nil" to her. It is a splendid cam paign grip, nnd sho is n clover di plomat. Mrs. Georgo Gould, daughter-in-law of tho great financier, puts tho daintiest kind of a jeweled hand llngcringly in yours. F. G, di: Fontainu. HOW THEY GREET Hob Owens' null.

This colony Is nol only lui)ortaut by its number, but It It laborious nud well united; nud tho Eng lish need not begrudge thorn tho hospi tality thoy receive, for they nro most useful members of the community. In twelve years (from 1874 to 1880) only twc. Frenchmen wero condemned for acts of dishonesty committed in England, nud ouu of these two was only a passing vis itor. A good ninny years ngo tho French residing in England did not know each other, and, for that matter, did not much cute to miilto acquaintance. Victor Hugo, Louis lllanc, Alphonso Enquires, bcttlcd on EnglundV hospltnblt shores in the early part of tho year 1832. With them wero a host of industrious nnd learned men, such ns Charles Cassal, ux-member of tho representative assem bly of I&18, who was soon appointed to thu professorship of French nt tho Lou don university; Theodore Knruhor, ono of tho lending journalists of Franco, who was for thirty years professor of French at tho Royal Military academy; Valen tin, tho famous prefect of Btrasburg, whoso prowess during tho siege of that town by tho Prussians Is still engraven on tho memory of tho French; Nadautl, Tallandlor, nnd many others. To these men, or, rather, to their memory for most of them nro gono now wo French rcsldonts In England owe a great debt of gratitude Thoy taught tho English re spect for Franco, and tho French respect for England. Thoy helped, by their writings, to mako tho pooplo of tho two countries understand each other better. They wcro tho real engineers of tho Chan nel tunnel, as I onco heard tho lato Lord Houghton call them. Resides tho French Ucnuvolont society and tho French hospital, thoro aro now ln Loudon and in tho provinces many i French clubs and associations, which prove that tho French In England no longer shun ono another's company, but, on tho contrary, seek ft. In theso clubs nnd societies, where tho French can bo seen at home, ns it wero, their characteristics como out ln full light, Gnyety and good fellowship reign, but tempered if ono may say bo by tho llttlo national failings, jealousy and yearning nfter electlvo tltlos. Theso so cieties, wo seo, aro subdivided into sec tions, committees, commissions, etc., each having a president, a vice presi dent, a treasurer, a secretaire rapporteur, a secretairo archivlsto and what not. For thnt matter, you will nover boo half a dOzfin Frenchmen meet round a table for tho discussion of anything but a good dinner without appointing ono of their number president, another vico president, etc. Each ono must havo n title; and if thero nro six members, nnd only flvo titles to bo dispensed, tho ono who is left out sonds in his resignation, and goes about abusing tho other flvo. It Eccms up to now ns if tho republic had failed to mako tho French pcoplo real republicans. Wo nro dcstltuto of tho first requisites of a republican respect and obedlonco to elected governors, nnd deferenco to tho voico of tho majority. Universal sulhago may bo absurd (I think it is); but having chosen to estab lish it, wo should abldo by its decisions, whether thoy concern tho government of a society or of n nation. I am afraid it is our mlsfortuno to havo mndo a re public before wo had mado republicans of ourselves. However this may bo, tho French societies In England nro doing good work, especially tho society of French teachers, whoso aim is to improve tho teaching of French In England, nud to help honnrnblo and intelligent com patriots. Now, something nbout Frenchmen you may como across in England Thoro la a typo of Frenchman who, nfter residing ten, fifteen, twenty yenrs In England, cannot speak English. Ho Is proud of it, and sometimes wonders thnt, with so many Fieuchmcu In Eng l.ii:J, tho English do not all speak French by this tlmo. Hut ho will tell you that the English have no aptitude for lan guages. Although ho has lived live years In thosamo apartments, could you bellovc that his landlady btlll compels htm to glvo his orders in English? Ho receives his paper from Franco every day, and avoids reading an English ono. Why should ho try to perfect his knowl edge of the English language? Ho knows ho sneaks It badlv. but he assures you thnt you require very fow word to mako yourself understood of tho people. This worthy Frenchman carries lib patriotism to tho oxtont of buying nil hfa clothing In Franco. Ho would not for tho world invest In a cravat or a pair of gloves of English manufacture. Ho de clares it Impossible to wear English gar ments, nud almost Impossible to wear out French ones, llesldefl, ho does not boo why ho should not givo his country tho benefit of boiiio of tho guineas ho haa picked up In England. Llko ovory child of Franco, ho has the lovo of lino llnon, nnd, In his opinion, tho nrtlclu Is only to bo found on tho other sldo of tho chart nol, So ho goes about In his unrrow brimmed lint nud turndown collar, fast ened low In tho neck, mi., finished oft with a tiny black tie, n largo oxpnnao oC shirt fiout, nud boots with high hcola and pointed toon, Ilo holds Ids head high, Is always smiling nud Imppy look ing, V An ho goes along tho street ho hoars people whisper, "Tliuro'fl a Frenchman!? Hut, far from objecting to that, ho rnthof, likes It, and I admlro him for It. Ha likes tlio English nnd recognizes their solid qualities; but, as ho jnissesses many of his own, ho keeps to his native stook, nnd novor tries to imitate tho English man either In his habit or his' dress. If his English vocabulary Is of thu moat limited, his knowledge of England la still more so, Ono of this typo, nnd a Iuidon correspondent of a Parisian paper, onco wrote to his editor that "Iord Salisbury yesterday kUsed tho queen's hands on his appointment as lender of her majesty's opposition." Another remarked thnt English boj h nro more respectful to their fathom than French ones, and, to prove It, he milled- "In the English upper classes the son Invariably culls his father governor, a word which Is prououucod guv'uor." If thu dear fullow speaks had English, ho will nover admit that thoro aro in England n good many Frenchman, who wi Ite nud speak very good Engllslu Then there Is tho Frenchman whose great ambition Is to be thought English. Ho frequents only English pooplo, give his fellow countrymen a wide berth, and has not n good word to say for thorn. 1 nm Inclined to think that his slurs ngnlnsi his countrymen ontino jro cialed b) his English friends, for my dx peileneo of the English tells mo that their own admiration for Englnnd makes them lespect u Frenchman for remaining French. Needle to say that this speci men is a nob. Ilo would fain mako you. believe that nil his spare tlmo Is spent la the country houses nud tho ynchts of wealthy or tilled English friends. His conversation Is full of tho "splendid shooting wo havo just had nt Lord So-uikI-bo'h place," or tho "delightful cruise wu hnd In tho North sea In Sir John's yncht Inst August.' Ho novor says "ths English do this or do that;" but his lan guage bristles with bucIi expressions a "wo should nover stand that In Eng land," or, "as wo say In English.' What would ho not glvo to bo able to g a llttlo further and say, "wo English!" Ho pushes his English get-up so far as te wear whiskers and ehavo his upper lip and chin, and not for tho world woula ho bo betrayed Into a shrug or tho shoul ders. I nm happy to say that his nam is not legion. A Frenchman not vory uncommonly met with In England is tho Anglopho blst. Ho hates tho vory namo of Eng lish. Needless to add that tho man is s social, failure. (To bo Continued.) Hardy fii Pitcher aro now showing a line of fancy rockers mndo by tho Way land-lvemball conqiauy of Paris, Maine.
