A ftw years ago Prince Nicholas of Montenegro, the father of the Princess of Naples, found It necessary to bor row 40,000 florins from the I.loyd Bank in Cattaro. A few days before the debt became due the Prince saw a peasant driving a pig pass by his palace. He rnshed out and asked the countryman where he wa going. "To Cattaro. Prince," replied the Montenegrin. "'AH right," said the Prince, "you can do me a service if you will leave this at the Lloyd office," and he gave him a pack age of bank notes, which the peasant carried faithfully to the cashier of the tank. The Chicago Tlmea-HeraJd prints the following dispatch from Columbia, Mo.: "A tramp appeared at the house of J. H. Barton, three miles south of here, this morning, and asked in Greek for cold victuals. He stated that be was a graduate of Princeton. Mr. Barton, ' himself a Creek scholar, was just ahont ' to start for Columbia, and his horse waa hitched in front of the house. Jesting- ly, he offered the tramp the horse If be i conld recite the Creek alphabet with-! out a mistake. The tramp inquired if i the offer included the saddle and bridle. , Mr. Baron said It did. The tramp rat-; tied off the alpha bet without error, and, ! turning the horse about, disappeared in a cloud of dust." i -The experience of the Charleston, S. C, knitting mill takes out of the do main of argument the long mooted question in the South as to the possible efficiency of colored employes in the cotton mills. As may be conjectured, the experiment with colored operatives wa not made voluntarily. White girls were' at first employed, but, a they ware paid "by the piece," tbey were able to ei-u little, while learning the business, and finally refused to remain longer at (1m work. Then the colored glrlt'Were called in. were paid the same rat offered to the white girls, and, ac cording to a statement by the njill 6wni?rs, are giving perfect satisfaction, this may prove to be a matter of. con siderable consequence to certain, indus tries in the South.

Iu addition to th a startling disclosure it wan also fouiel that several thousand other were ia such a bad condition that prompt medi cal attention wan advised. The prece dent established by the Baltimore school authorities In causing the eve night of pupils to le investigated should appeal to the good sense of educatiuual boards all over the country. In At lanta there are nearly l.l.miu children enrolled In the public school. Is it fair to assume that every pupil ts blessed with good evesight and that uoi a single one of them is in need of med ical attention? Such an assumption, would 1 ridiculous in view of the re cent disclosure in Baltimore. The sub ject is one which the Board of Eduea tion should gravely consider, as it in volves not only the efficiency of our public school system, but the physical condition of numberless pupils attend ing the sebools of this city. The retirement of Cliarlea W. Coul dock. which has been announced and denied, cannot, in the nature of things, lie long delayed. When he first liegan to make a name on the boards many of the giants of more than two genera tions ago were still ia the enjoyment of their fame. Forrest, Macready, the elder Booth and others still tilled th public eye, and there were scarcely any premonitions as yet of the radical change which tftage fashions have un dergone since that day. He began his career as a conspicuous stage figure in the school of dramatic representa tion destined o soon to pass away, though here aud there some artist still struggle, to achieve fame along iu linen. His earlier starring was In the old classic drama, beginning before that old creation of Kotzebue, "The Stranger," a play which was the pa rent of half a dozen more or less palpa ble imitations, hail yet begun to lose favor. It may be that he would have achieved higher fame If that type of dramatic writiug had' remained iu vogue. Hut though it is impossible, to be at all certain about this, it la at least certain that whatsoever he un dertook in tlutt way he did welL He did not,, perhaps, reach the plane of greatness, but be was always an artist1 of Intelligence and force, if not of the highest degree of polish. Perhaps the most remarkable fact about him as au artist was that the change in dramatic fashion did not leave bim with hi occupation gone. He did not drop out of the line of mar h nor remain In It vainly trying to carry an old and obso lete lmnner la an entirely perfunctory way. He roue above that. He kept substantially abreast with the devel oping progress of bis art From "The Stranger" and 'The Willow Copse" b passed to "Hazel Kirke" and to yet later forms of the drama, and though he may have halted short of greatness in tbem too heat least achieved high ly creditable degree of eminence In Uus newer fashions a he bad done In the old. The average man Is outgrown by hi time if he lives to be an old tnau. Mr. Couldock was not ho left behind. I'ntil he passed 80 he was always able to command a degree of favor which the vast majority of his profession nev er attain. In that respect at least he has lieen a remarkable man. For sev enty yeans nearly he has kept abreast with a constantly shiftlug. profession. A curious light is thrown on the standards of living In this country half a century ago by the records In the case of Burr versus Burr. The couple were married in I), and forty years later the wife deckled that she could uo longer stand her husband's mbterly habits, and brought suit for separata maintenance. It was shown that the wife had brought as dowry -ren thou sand dollars, which compounding an nually would have amounted to sixty thousand or seventy thousand dollars, and that the husband was worth one million dollars a great fortune for those days. The vice-chancellor grant ed the snit and allowed the wife ten thousand dollars a year for the reel of her days. But the hutthnnd demurred, awl. thoiiKh the judgment was finally confirmed, then- were dissenting ipln iorts. Judge Iott said, in his disseuting opinion: "1 fully concur with the chan cellor that If ever a case called for an extraordinary allowance this 1 one." But ten thousand dollars a year over whelmed him; and, in discussing it. be said further: "If a commission in the nature of lunacy against Burr had is sued, and the fa-t shown that he wae spending ten thousand Jollars a year, 1 believe It would have been considered sufficient proof of his lncometeiw,y.. and of the waite and destruction of W" property, to have Justified the appoint nient of a committee to take charge, of : the property." And this man Burr was worth one million dollars, with a prob-: able income of front thirty thousand to! sixty thousand dollars. Judge Bocke concurred fully a to the sepa ration, hut when he came to the amount for maintenance and upKrt, he soured and roared: "Looking upon this woman as a respectable and reasonable one. there is no condition or state of the hu tiirtn tulud, short of insanity, which eft" admit of the belief that she will or enn deaire to spend the sum of ten thou sand dollars a year. wji certainly not now require such an -tabtiabment as would be thought aWa for a queen dowager. At her age it would be unsuitable, even ludicrous. t Uriah the revenues of a prluclpulity la the adornment of her person, ami she will oof require to be fed. like the profligate Egyptian ctiurleaoni' with pearla dissolved In aeid fhe jtlJowirH of ten thousand dollars a'jear l ninnl featljr extravagant anl excessive."

York correpondeoc: P.OBABI.Y fur garments for wo men were never more plentiful than they t:r now. and they certainly were never wore leautiful. but they atv not to be had at prWs that sug gest their growing on Imm kyard bush . so those who cannot afford them turn to less expeu s i v e protection against cold. Coats of one or atther kiiul of clot h are a popular ri"sort, and the favored goods are leuna, 1'er sian cloth, laver. cheviot aud kersey. Boude cloth does uot wear well, and Is not as warm a it looks, yet it is a good deal used. Velvet still holds its own, but nothing looks len shlpshae than a velvet coat when worn on any but dres K-casloii, and as Ihls means that an other coat must aecoininy the velvet one, the latter is withdrawn from tie e-oriomical list. Among other couts that are more in line with extra vasamv than economy are a few tine ones of brocade silk in very heavy quality ami those are belt-d and in front have tsix lag that looks careless, but that Is the result of careful planning. The belt is A WHAF WOUI,I DETRAIT. of ilk and fastens under a handsome buckle, the waist size being large. Sleeves are big, with several rows of wrded tucks, a fancy that npiiears late and lias an authoritative look that Is convlm-iug. Psstdng such coats we c-uuv to coat bodice that are not Intended to be hid den. In IheMe it might lie thought that a true vein of economy had been touched, but unless the InvcstlgAtor g(s-s warily she'll be apt to meet with complete dlsapiralntuielit. Two things will be dbwovered at once; one is that if t lie re la any saving Iu thi-se jfannente it is accomplished by stealth, their orig inal intention bclug to plase women of wealth, rather than the millions of skluiM-rs: and the other Is that many of these cotit bodice are very rich and ex pensive. As evideiu-e of this last point, consider this first picture. Here fur and dark-green cloth were combined, but a glance shows that economy didu't influeuce the uniou. Aside from the llljeralliy with which the fur was used ami the seeming re-klesxn'ss with which it was cut, the fact that the dress skirt was uiaile 10 closely match the bodice prove tlie latter to be even far ther outside the realm of 'saving de vice. Cbeullle braid ran up the fronts of tbia Jacket, entirely covered the cloth portion of Its collar, ornamented the miffs and finished the sctiHois-d hem of the skirt's cloth. A n clea ut costume, resulted from this contriving, but very plainly there was no saving In It.

Made of military dotti, Ita skirt waa trimmed with two rows of black fancy rald which ran around the front breadth and up the right aide, esch row ending In n pretty ornament. A In silk lmise mm mm w.,ru under the Jacket, which had a In, i front, tilted back aiel sides and only a narrow basque. It hiaikisl In visibly iu front and was cut In one with the high collar, which showed black velvet facing. Its close relationship to the skirt was inted by Its trimming of braid. Chamois jackets are much worn be neath this sort of bodice, a well a un der caiM. and are an excellent protec tion, and that there was a silk blouse beneath thi one hhould not be taken as an indiscriminate endorsement of the dainty waists iu crepona and deli cate silks that are m.w offer-d at very low ;tU-i. The!e waists are very at- if i APF.K iwu.i.r. tractive, is?ing pretty of themselves and costing very little. But a wholesale lowering of prices always means that Ihtmc Fashion is Is-g.nitliie to turn up her fastidious nose at tlie articles chcap etoHl, irii lie careful. The last example or the siyhw in l coat Wilces wat in a suiting of a dark red shade that Is now very desirable. It booked in the center aDd bail a gar uiture of black mohair braid that gave a bolero effect, which is Just now a trade-mark of stylhdiww. Ita high collar was lined with fur ami had black braid trlmmiui around the seam. With this I xllce was a skirt of the same ma terial, trimmed in the niajiuer iudlcatrd with braid, and cut, like the last pic tured hklrt, Ut lightly skim the pave ment. That Is Jiwt what the fashiona ble woman now alms at, for she will uot permit such s vulgarity as a drag ging si.lrt. Though her kirt touch, she will Dot hold it up.

The result is that If the edge of her sun is to laat at all. It must be brushed thoroughly every day it Is woru. The favorite fin ish at the edge of a skin la a roll top ped by a width of braid, which makes a tight, tidy facing. The old-time brakl set on the inside of the skirt and fast ened only at iu upper edge ia rarely used now, for the dust setting too dread fully between the loose edge of the braid and the skirt As It ia now a skirt k hardly supposed to wear more than a dozen times before it shows trace of cutting at the edge. It may then U- turned up the least mile, and the next step is to set braid, fur, velvet or a' ruche at the edge on the outxidc and ho offer a new edge, at ihe name time adding a little to the length. Though cac come in at present for only a small share in women's favor, their makers s-em to exert themselvo very little toward renewing their for mer ixjpularlty. The new capes that are ween are almost invariably pretty, but they are as short and chilly as ever, and aside from the multitude of simple cloth ones, their pricm are far from low. A fair sample of the present faticy cape Is priswuled In the fourth Illustration, and coiwidcralion of It will show that what little warmth It afford ed was g ni nisi at a pretty stiff price. Made of black velvet, it was trimmed at the hem with Imnds of almond green cloth richly embroidered with tinsel and Jewels.

She opened the door. There stood a man. his hat In his hand. After is-ing assured that be had found the riKhl place, he stepped into the room in a hesitating, half-snir-sl irt of way.

He had taken Ihe slip of pa per its It was handed to him, but the iiumlM-r -lK--evidently had made no Impression on his mind. He was a middle-aged man of the working class, aud was unmistakably iu great trouble. His eyes were rod and swollen, and the tears that had ls-eti brushed aside with tlie back of bis bund bad left slreflks of dust across his cheeks. The ds-tor came In late hurried and tlred-from the hospital, where be hail lecn all the morning. As he passed through the ante-room Into his ollice there was a little flutter, and the man iu the corner started forward as if to go to him at once. The attendant restrained him, told him be would have to wait bis turn, and explained alsiut the numbering system. He made uo remonstrance, probably be cause he could eak KiiKlish only slightly, but he looked more troubled than ever, and after the fourth patient had Imh-ii si imi by the doctor a woman patleut, walling her turu, noticed that he was weeping silently. Thinking lie mlKht l- In pain and require Immediate attention, she usked him if he was sick and if she could do anything for him. He shook his head, but tisik courage from tlie sympathy in her voice, and explained ills trouble as well as he whs able. His wife, the mother of his three little children, had Is-eu 111 for a long time, aud it was only tlie day la-fort; that a doctor had Is-eu consulted. He pro nounced the caee a serious one, requir ing an immediate Hurgiiul operation, aud made arrangements for her to go to the hospital that night to be oeruted ou the next morning by the noted sur geon whom the man was now waiting toec. He had said good-by to her the night Is-fore at the hospital, fully real izing that the clutuctv were small for ever seeing her again alive, lie was obliged to go to work the next morning as usual or lose his job. And uow, dur ing his tiiKin hour, he bad come to know her fateand his. If he waited until his turn he would lie unable to get back to work at 1 o'clock, and In that case would Is "docked." The womau to whom he had told his story watched the door of the doctor's office, and tbe Instant It was opeued pushed In ahead of her turn and asked that the man be admitted at once.

He and his com panions were traveling I ti rough a dense forest, where nothing ould le seen, and where life was made almost unendurable by swarms of midgets, mosquitoes and gadflies. At night, be caus? there was no living out -of -doors, they would put up at the hut of (lilnesK sable-hunters. Some of the Chinese, whose huts were fouud every twelve or fifteen tulles, were trapping sables, while oth ers were iu search of tlie ginseng root, which is greatly priacd by the Cbiuese for iu euppoeied medicinal virtuns. To the Kng)lhmcn their life seemed a hard one. The sable-trapping furnish ed a measure of excitement, but as for the ginseng hunters they would wan der through the forest day after day, and all day long, and were content If they found one plant iu the whole sea 'toft. 1 1 would lie worth, perhaps, fif teen pounds.
