Nrw Yoiik, Dec. IO.Ah tho represen
tative of your papor t willed on Mr. Moti
on m i)iiiilol Conway it fow days ago. I
found him ut twilight In his beautiful
mid IntorestliiK study, tho broad win
(Iowa anil balconies of wliluh ovurlook
Central park, Tor Mr. Conway lives
In ono of those ialaccllko apartmunt
houses on Fifty-ninth street, went.
Un tho walls of that study Imuir tho
portraits of many of tho dlstltiKiilshed
mun of lltoratnro, nroKroi'slvo thought
and enlarged personal Iniltiunco with
whom Mr. Conway linn been ac(iialntcd
anil morn or less Intimately associated
in ono way or another In tho
pat. i
From bin wall look down upon you tho
pictured faces of TennyHon, Kniernon,
Catlyle, Moteau, Lludley, Mill, Wen-1
dell Phillips, Drowning and Fanny !
Wright. TIiIh last picture was present-'
eil to Mr. Conway by tho widow of the
old Loudon bookseller who HiilTered ho
much portucutiou for pttbliHhiiig radical
iMiokn, Several of the other portraits
wem presented by the originals or by
members of their families. Indeed, tho
rooms and hall are well filled with pic
tures, among them original paintings by
Corot, Millet, Kdouard Frere, Courbet,
Turner, Laudseer; and there Is a lino
portrait of Mrs. Conway by Arthur
Hughe, of London. There are Home
curious Persian paintings and other ob
jects of Interest, among them a leaf of a
bo tree of India, supposed to bo descend
ed from that under which tho teacher
himself Hat an emblem held by the
Diuldhlstn in Hauctity resembling that of
tho cross among Christians.
All these treasures, tho collections of a
a busy, thoughtful life, Mr. Conway
showed mo and talked to mo about with
tlio ktndiH.ws ami grave courtesy or a
Virginia gentleman of tho old school 1
mean tho social school of the Washing
tons, Fairfaxes and Ctislises.
In allusion to his Persian pictures and
tlio leaf of tho bo tree, Mr. Conway re
marked, "I have always kept up my in
terest in religious thought, though lately
I have been writing history and biog
raphy." Ho had much pleasure in writ-
lug while in Rome recently a "Life of
Hawthorne.
In answer to lllipilries be ,

Paine." For this largo and critical work
ho bad been gathering materials for
some years. It will, ho hopes, ho pub
lished in January by Messrs. Putnam.
Mr. Conway visited tho birthplace of
Paine Thetford, England and followed
his footsteps through that country and ,
France, The book will contain much
that is thrilling, for Paine was an actor
In tho French as well as in tho American ( nw to itnarim Drowning- ivr......
Revolution. In this work Mr. Conway A person in danger of drowning usu
said bo had been assisted by English ' ally becomes panic stricken, and in such
clergymen in obtaining Information in I condition Is very dangerous to handle,
their parishes. When the life of Palno
is published it will be found, Mr. Cou-
way believes, that his opinions, which
were considered obnoxious in the past,
will be thought rather conservative by
many who have a traditional horror of
his very name.
In addition to this biography, on which
Mr. Conway lias been at work since his
return last .oar from a twelve mouths
sojourn in Europe, a novel by him has
appearod "Prisons of Air." When his
Paine is finished ho expect to tako up
tho task of editing a miiniiHcript, "History
of Virginia," by Edmund Randolph, sec
retary of statu under Washington. ThU
is now a treasure of tho Virginia Histori
cal society. It has never seen'tho light,
but It was referred to by William Wirt
in his "Life of Patriok Henry."
"This is intrusted to me," said Mr.
Conway "by tho Virginia Historical so
ciety, although lieforo the war, on ac
count of my antlslavory opinions, which
date from 18.1t, I was considered a stray
sheep in Virginia nml in tho south. Dm
I am, for all that, deeply attached to my
native state, and vtry anxious to con
tribute something to tho proper revision
and elucidation, of its history a uoblu
history. I come naturally by that feel
ing, having been born in the region of
tho Washingtons, Monroes, Madisons
and Lees."
1 will hero mention what tho modesty
of Mr. Conway forbids him to tell, that
ho is a descendant of the Washington
family on the paternal side, while hi 1
great-grandfather on the mother's side
was Thomas Stone, of Maryland, ono of
tho signers of tho Declaration of Inde
pendence.
Mr. Conway said he found himself
"increasingly fond of Now York as a
placo of residence." Familiar as he is
with all the other great cities of the
world, ho now llnds more novelty and
variety here than anywhere else, and its
literary opportunities very large.
His family consists of his wife, a sou,
who is a practicing lawyer in Now York,
and his daughter, Miss Mildred Conway,
who although quite young, Just past her
teens, shows her heredity ami tho influ
ence of her father's example and cult,
haviugalready identified herself with the
charlt'ot of New York and assisted in tho
foundation and development and the
movemeutsof its "neighborhood guilds."

Having reached shore with tho insen

out of stomach and lungs and induce

also bo rubbed vigorously so as to start

Ilow Mrs. Fry Ituleil llnr Conduct.
That excellent Englishwoman Mrs.
Fry, who combined in her character and
conduct all that is truly excellent in
woman, formulated theso rules: "1. I
never lose any time; I do not think time i
lost which is suent in amusement or I
recreation some part of each day, but al
ways bo in tho habit of lieing employed.
8. Never err the least in truth. 3. Never
say an ill thing of a person when thou
canst say u good thing of him: not only
speak charitably, but feel so. -I. Never
bo Irritable or unkind to anybody. 5.
Never Indulge thyself In luxuries that
are not necessary. 0. Do all things with
consideration, and when thy path to act
right is most difllcult, feel confidence in
that power alone which is able to assist
thee, and exert thy own powers as far as
they go."
How and When to Wear a Nroktlo.
Neckties, that Is, narrow bauds of
muslin, silk or satin, have gono out of
use except for clergymen and other gen
tlemen when in evening dress. A clergy
man appears to be privileged to wear
either a white or black necktie upon any
o;casiou. But other persons who wish
to )o in the fashion should never wear
em except wTion in evening dress, that
