IT Ik only seldom tlmt I find timototook between the covers nf the Indies jktI wHenls, lTit tho other day IilekodtipthoHepteniber issue of tho JrnnexvMil' l '. yj pnrtlculiirlly interested In if mi article on kissing liy LL. -J Tvntn IvnulTriifiii. I mil not nKi'Inlly Interested In kissing, though Iivus cur ious to lrnrn tlio writer's position n this common Koclnl custom. Most Indy w liters, unit In fact nil writers pretend to dopre- cnti w lint tlny cull "pi omlsciious kissing , but Mh-s KiiuIViuiiii (I Infer from them tide that tliw author In n "Miss") took, I wns pleas ed to observe, n new view. Kho doesn't see nny particular linrni In nn oocnslonnl kiss, and it In evident that she linn small respect for the man who lmsn'tthonervo to oeeuslon nlly put tlio right kind of a kiss in the right place. V Example of the artistic osculations of Thackeray, Dickens, Mrs. Alexander, et til, are given. Among otheisthofrllowlng story Is told: "Hov. Brown, mi English divine or puritanic Ideas, author of u lllhllcil concor dance, courted his wife seven years beforo he asked If ho might kiss her. Must as you please,' she unswered, demurely. 'Lvtusllrst ask a blessing,' he wild, lifter which he kissed her. 'Whyl It's good,' ho exclaimed. 'Let lis return thanks'. Thoy were married in n few weeks." A young Indy Is quoted as summing up tlio qualities of u suitor an follows: "He was good-looking, hu uus educated, ho wn de voted, he sent mo ilowors -I nlwnys thought I'd love a mull who sent mo flowers but (In a tone of disdain) ho hadn't seuso enough to kiss mo when he had a chance I" Poor fullowl He would undoubtedly have got the girl if hu had had a Jlttlo nerve. It's a good idea to to gather in' w hat comes your way. Allttloklss now and then Is relished by the liost of men nnd women. Miss Knutr maii in conclusioiioplnesthat"theklssl9tobe highly commended " t I met u plucky young Indy the other day in he person of Miss Elizabeth O. Morrell of 11114 Kuriiam stieut, Omaha. The ,iW Home Journal not long since offered a freo scholarship at Vassal to the young lady so curing the largest number of subscriptions, paid In ndvanccj beforo January 1. Miss Morrell wants to go to Vnssnr and this sum mer sho has cuuvassed Omahii, Lincoln and many of tho smaller towns in the state, se curing in all thus far nearly 000 names. Sho Intends to win and is trying for a thousand. From what can lie leurued sho is ahead of all competitors. Miss Morrell is now teaching school and soliciting after hours. Not many girls would buy an education ut this price. People are often curious to know how much It costs to winter tho average, society young man. A couple of Pleasant Hour members were discussing this question a few days slnco In my hearing and they ciinie to the conclus ion that tho ex'wnsos incident to a winter's paiticipatlou In the festivities of the Pleasant Hours costs in tho ueighhoi hood of gl'JTi.OO. Adding n reasonable amount for the club's summer outings, uud making allow unco for theatres, other entertainments, etc., It Is pobablo that the young man who maintains hisplaco In the (Lincoln) swim, spends for social pleasure not much let than f.WO per annum. If you daiico in the Four Hundred you have to pay the tiddler. Of course u good many fellows slip through on less than this; but the high-dyers do not get otr much below the flguro named. Dunlop'a cable brought over an interesting account of u duel between two Parisian lad les tlio other day. It was not expressly stated but I infer that tills latest eruption of the gny republic's most picturesque ruling passion among the feminine sex, is only n de velopment of tho recent revival of the fusli ion to make women as near like men as possi ble. And what could moro closely ressmble a duelling Frenchman than a du lllng French woman) These two ladies lavished their af fections on tho same man, which of course, soon resulted in an exclmngo of unpleasant ness, preeeedlng the warlike and manlike en counter. Unfortunately tho gendarmes spoiled the fun buforo either contestant was killed. Considerable damage was done to the bustles and back liair, however Tho Liverpool l'oil lutoly contained the fol lowing "personal": "Will tho lady wearing spectacles who, on Thursday evening, drove u dark pony and four-wheeled phaeton, with groom behind, alone Halewood road, ami in jured n valuable Buddie-horse by not taking her sldo of tho road, kindly get u better pair of glosses and take driving lessons beforo sho ventures out uguinl" Even drink cannot drown the manly qual ities of n true gentleman. There may be a dllfeieuce lietween Phillip drunk and Phillip sober; but If Phillip Is u gentleman his gen tlemanly hibtiuctH lire manifest even In Intoxication. While standing on one too In a state fair train yesterday, I observed u man, hopelessly Inebriated, offer his seat to a poor ly clad woman. The other half of the seat was occupied by twin "dressed like ii gen tlman." Ho was perfectly kober. The aisle wnsfullof ladles standing; but he retained his teat. As I watched tho frnnllc.efforts of tho foi mer to keep on his feet I was reminded of an Incident recorded in the newpuers some yenrs ago, it was In a crowded horse car. A woefully intoxicated Individual roso fn i1 ' to oiler his sent to a lady, when another man who was sober, slipped into tho vacant place, leaving the Indy standing. "Su-n-y you fellow j on'' said tho boozy but chivalrous unfortunate, as lie swayed toiiud fto hanging to a stni p. "I I'm drunk, I know, but I-I'll getovei It, 1 will; but you you'io a hog, and yo , ,1 never get over it in In this world no, sir, never." V For tho hcncllt of our young people who tiro xrKttiiilly "going somow here," 1 call attention to the pretty idea introduced by Miss Suo ColxtzHi-, of Omaha, one evening Inst week. The young lady wns to leave for her school in the east In a few days, ami in stead of giving tho conventional "farewell" pai ty, sho invito 1 her friends to a "fotget me-nol" party To bo sure cards were tho chief amusement of the evening, but the "for-get-ine-not" Idea was kept prominently lie foi u the guests. Umall cards on which wore painted a miniature likeness of the hostess, surrounded with a garland of tho (towers were presented to each member of the com pany. Tho ladles of Ashvllle, North Carolina, met this week and organized a society for mutual protection against the encroachment of the scrvnntgirl. It is the intention to push the association in all parts of the state. Hut it will do no good. Tho set viiut girl from her iedestnl In tho kitchen, rules tho house, and no association of employers can curtail her "rights." Association or no association she will continue to have live nights out a week, to receive her "cousins" on tlio front steps and entertain them from the household larder, and boss things generally. There nro two things human agency cannot control the weather unit the servant girl. Wo now expect an essay on life or denth every time Robert U. Ingersoll or Senator Ingnlls Is called upon to deliver n eulogy upon ii departed friend or colleague. Tho wordy congressman from Kausop, rendered tribute to tho memory of tho late Henator Heck of Kentucky, the other day, and us usual lie de voted most of his oration to n discussion of tho m story of life nnd denth. The Senator Peck part of it wus dismissed in u few words. In conclusion ho said: "There Is an intelli gence so vast and enduring that the (laming Interval between tho birth and denth of uni verses is no more than the flash of lire-then above the meadows of summer: u colossal power by which tlieso stuendous orbs are j launched in the abyss, like bubbles blown by I a child in tho morning sun, and whoso senso of Justice and reason cannot bo less potential .than thoso immutable statutes that aio tho I law of Wing to the creatures Ho Iiiih made, I uud which compel them to declare that if the only object of cieation is destruction, if lu- lluity is the theatre of an uninterrupted ser ies of Irreparable calamities, if the Html cause of, life is denth, then tliim is an inex plicable tragedy, and eternity an illogical and indefensible catastrophe." This is n fair sam ple of the eulogistic tirades of these two worthy gentlemen. The meaning of the jingling muss is very obscure. Senator Heck, who was doubtless at that time inn place of high understanding, was probably the only h.tsoii who knew what the long winded Knnsau was "driving ut." Sir Lionel Suckvlllo West is uu English man. Ho first rose from obscurity when us British minister during Cluveluud s adminis tration, ho paved tho wuy for his recall by interfering with the political uffuin: of the United States in tho notorious Murchlson letter. Ho evidently prefers notoriety to ob scurity ; for ho now emerges a second time from a somewhat lengthy jteiiod of innocu ous desuetude, in u fashion oven more pictur esque than tho til st. You all remember that Ueoige W.Childs, the milllonaiie owner of the Philadelphia Ledger sometime ago pre sented the town of Stintford-on-Avon with u mugiiiflceut fountain uud clock tower as u memorial of Shuktspcuro. Now it seems this memoiial was pluccd on ti public market place, the title to which has been vested in the family of which Lord Sackvillo is u mem ber for six hundred years. Suckvlllo is of course, mad at all Americans, and he selected Mr. Chllds as u tit person on whom to vent his spleen. He has uotilled our generous coun tryman that ho expects rent tor tho ground occupied by the statue either from tho town council ot Htiutfonl-on-Avon or Mr. Chllds himself. Was ti.ero ever nn) thing more pro 'posleiousf I can see the led come to the cherub cheeks of my old tow nsman as he re ceives the news. Hu said to an interviewer: "I am most surprised at the whole proceed ings, especially in view of the tuct tlmt Lord De Lit U'nrr, who is the head ot the family, was one ot the most enthusiastic and active supporteis of the matter. During the ceie monies attending the formal presentation of the gift he even propohed u toast to tho presi dent or tho United Suites." If the facts are us leported It may bo tlmt the crown ot glory which has long been awaiting the meanest man, will find a lest lug place on the brow of the ex-Iirltish ministei. Theatrical ma uugeis who are desirous of producing their attractions ton "dam tine class of iwople" uro resjiectfully referred to the town ot Tomahawk, Vis. The following letter recently leceived by the Milwaukee Sentinel explains itself; Tomahawk, August 27, lb'J.

"A Colossal Liar" which was pie sentisl Monday night was perhaps the U'st In the Dillon rccrtory. This play so-called is nothing but n string of lies, awl the audience is not couqielleil to follow ltiboilously the "thread" of the story. The comedian hasalu this piece exceptional opKiituultii's for the display of his art and he makes the most of tlieni. He is not u Jelferson ; but ha has a good deal i f real comedy In him, uud it came out in "A Colossal Liar." Dillon's mellow voice Is one of Ills chief charms. Ills support this season Is ery InilllVeretit. Iteietitlons of "Wanted tho Earth" awl "Htnto's Attor ney" were given Tuesday awl Wednesday evenings. "Ole Olson" with Its quaint eccen tiiciticscnino Thursday and hridny evenings "Ole" comes very near Mug a novelty and as such washeiiitlly ttppicclutcd liytwohirgn audiences.

Mull'1 tho latest farce-comedy success will lie presented nt Fuuke's Monday night. One of the proprietors of this money-making play is Hobtirt Brooks, a Washington ncwspii)crcor lcspondrnt who is married to Mrs. President Harrison's niece. The White Houso family, tho stoiy goes, were much displeased at Mr Ilrooks' "descent" Into the thent ileal business 'this displeasure was much intensified by the fnct that ono of the characters in tlio piece, John Moneymaker is n laughable tuke-oir on Postmaster Ueuernl Wauamaker. It is said that tho Ilrooks' wero forbidden to enter the president's luuse; but this Is tnkcu cum yninii Hiilii, for the two families have always liecn on tho most Intimate terms. All Interesting feature of the Incident is duo to the fact that "liuby Hrooks," tlio little daughter of Mr. nnd .Mrs. Ilrooks Is a great playmate of "Huby McKee," the wonderful child whoso doings have furnished Immeasurable material for Washington gossip writers. "U. 8. Mall" is put on by ti strong coupipy and Its pro duction will be one of the features of the Lin coin season. It AN'TKI.I, IN "UOMIIAIIM."

His ierfonnance wns one of the most finished pieces of acting ever soju In this city nnd nil who had tho pleasuio of being present during tho play's ilrst presentation in this city, spoke In terms of praise, not only of Mr. Muntell und his piny, but his supporting com pany ns well nnd tho rich dresses worn by tho artists also caused much favorable comment. "Monbars" Is nil ndmliublo play; its dialogue is interesting; its stcry u true ono, its situ tlons are easy awl nntuial nwl Its climaxes moving nnd powerful. As a play It is well worth seeing, nwl Mr. Mnntell will always keep it in Ills reportory. The company play ing In the drama this season is nearly the same ns wns seen here Inst year awl Includes nil the old favorites.
