Which took place In the legislature yesterday

litical capital , wcro wholly ami entirely tin-
warranted. . The Idea of introducing such a
resolution originated with Mr. Fonton , of
lUchanlson county , and it was at Ills request
and mine that Mr. Caldwell took action In the
matter. It is lamentable to find men elected
to repro.sentaU\o positions displaying such
Ignorance and nariowncss as tuat shown by
ilr. Knox and Mr. Tiacy In ye.steiday's dis

tniilit to be an Irishman bitterly opposing

Compulsory Education In tlio Army.

Fry , of the regular army , expressed Ids views
freely this nftcrnoon before the military
service Institute on Governor's Island. The
subject for discussion was compulsory educa

as expressed In his paper caused quite a sen-
Ration among n largo number of piomlncnt
people who attended nnd also provoked much
criticism. Ho criticized the public school

ground ot the objection was that none of the

the convention was addressed bv Albert Curl-

amid great applause , charged the icspoiisl-

Nr.w Yottir , Jan. 13. [ Correspondence
of the BIK. ; ] O , she w < is a lovely girl to
look at until , in the slang which 1 presume -
sumo she would employ in describing
the incident , she gave herself away. She
was eighteen to thirty , according as the
bloom of health had or hadn't conserved
an appearance of yonthf illness. Her
llguro was the happiest imaginable
medium betwixt emaciation and
rotundity , and she walked with the gait
of conscious beauty fashionably clothed
nnd adorned. At her left elbow saun
tered a dude whoso name is sometimes
seen in the reports of swell assemblages ,
while nt her ritrlit promenaded a com
panion of her own sex. Thus she moved
along in front of me , nnd 1 soon discerned
that all was not peace between her and
the chappie. Amiable relations were
strained for a block or so , and then
broken all lo pieces. The delicate pink
of her cheeks flamed up to crimson , and
her quiet demeanor became turbulent.
As though by sudden inspiration , she
withdrew one hand from her own fur
mull'ami inserted it in that which
her feminine friend was carry
ing. The doubling up of her lists in the
two mulls was indicated by tlio bulging
of the soft surface , and in another in
stant she struck tlio attitude of a pugilist.
She had transformed the mull's into box
ing gloves. Like a Hash she pitched into
the dandy , and the vocabulary of the
prixo lng would boupeful _ right hero to
describe what she did to him. 1 have
heard or read somewhere that newspaper
reporters , in makimr notes ot a pugilistic
engagement during its progress , jot
down the hasty words on a succession of
outlined hitman ligurcs , and by that de
vice manage to keep up with the pro
ceedings , but nothing , short of an elec
trical automatic apparatus could have re
corded the blows which this girl pelted
all over that poor dude. The mull-
gloves saved him from physical harm ,
out his mind was shattered in one short
round , and lie lied. But the reason why

enough to be accepted as an associate.
Not only have Mrs. Langtry and Miss
Fortescue been repulsed , but Patti , al
though her recent marriage to her lover
was urged as a clearance of her record ,
was also rejected. Of course , there i.s
sroing to bo a row , -ami very likely the
enterprise will eventually go to pieces
explosively , for nearly every neb family
has poor ami shady relatives , and in
drawing the line of e.\elusivenes.s it has
ulratulv boon made to 0:11 rijiiu through
several circles bound together by con
sanguinity. Ono advantage of Tnxcdn
policy is that denizens can loosen their
conventionality considerably. The
sports of dancing , skating , sno'wshooing
mid tobogganing are pursued with an
abandon which would not be sanctioned
in sight of common spectators.
Maud , age ten , went tobogganing and
thus breathlessly described tiio sport :
" 1'ou climb up a lot of stairs , stick out
your legs and go whiz/ ! Its just perfectly
lovely , ion ought to get on one. " At
Tuxedo park bigger girls than Maud
thiiiK it is superlatively lovely and do not
get weary of the fun. They dress for it
from top to too , and as a blanket suit
covers one as completely as the mantle
of charity , and utterly precludes nil possi
bility ot omparrassment in case of an up
set , they don't want any laces or em
broidery , but put on warm underclothing
and are rationally comfortable. Blanket
suits in strong colors sire usually worn ,

is an ccrue older-down lianiiol with rod
bands , \yorn by a brunette bud , who is
just a trifle too stout to appear to the
best ad vantage in the heavier and clum
sier material. Another handsome suit is
a black jersey flannel with gold bands ,
epaulets and sash. The wearer is a
blonde and she lets her golden hair
stream out from under n black toque as
she whizzes down the half mile slide.
Some man i.s going to bo blinded by that
flying mass of gold before the ice melts
at Tuxedo.
Toboggan is conductive lo sociability
and soon puts acquaintances on a lirmor
footing of friendship. On the steep Tux
edo slide , a girl cannot trust to her own
skill and strength , but must have the
strong arm ot a man to hold her upright.
Ho .sits behind , in order to steer the
craft , and it i.s absolutely necessary
that ho should keep ono arm nt
least about the waist of his timorous
passengers when ihe toboggan begins to
slew around , and manifest a tendency to
go crab-fashion , there is some danger of
losintr your balance and completing tlio
slide in an undignified and distressing
attitude , and shu implores him to hold
heron. Jf ho is not altogether devoid of
wit or a misanthrope ho will respond at
once and take away what little breath
the swift motion may have left in her , and
then she feels perfectly secure , The bud
was steered down the slide that same
night by a poor little straw-colored son
of a banker , who devised what he thought
a very ingenious schema for assuring the
safety of his charge , Ho tied the ends.of
her sash to the side rails of the to
boggan so that she was held upright -
right , ns the mast of n ship is held
by the shrouds. Ho explained that thu
arrangement left both his hands free to
manage the craft , and the poor thing
couldn't understand why thu bud said
she didn't think sliding was good fun.
The toboggan stcorer is filling thu place
in the social organisation left vacant
when tlio skating rink professor van-
Uhed , with his occupation , his smirk and
his cheek. At tlio public slides young
men are employed to take care of begin
ners and steer the toboggans for
VKNTril ( > OMK VOL' .Ml WOMKN" ,
They are not slow in making acquaint-
rncos upon the slightest provocation. At
one of the New lork slides Imlfndoicn
of these fellows are kept , and when not
on the coast or treating their passengers
to hot cotlco they gather above the stove
in ono of the buildings and compare
notes. Onu chap triumphantly exhibits
a card given him by his last charge ami
passes it around for inspection. Discus
sions and jokes follow that would not bo
agreeable for the subject to hoar.
"Kloped witli a toboggan pilot" may bo
be a common headline in the newspaper
before long. The skating rink professor
lies smouldering in the grave , but his soul
is sliding on.
It requires all the time and agility of ono
man nt tlio foot of a toboggan incline to
recover the hats and bonnets that come
coasting down behind the tobogganers
who arc not ligged properly for the
sport. At the pulilio slides , on the Polo
grounds , the hat chaser takes as many
risks as bndgu jumper , aud no insur
ance company wonhl i ue a policy on
him at loss than freight brnkomnn's
rates , if tlio agent eriiihf see him at work.
Down comes a long toboggan , loaded

ana the wind of the rush whirls off n

Of course she clutches wilt'ly at the air ,
turns her head nronminnd reaches out
astern , as though she ( jxpcctcd the ma
chine lo slop nnd led somebody hand her
the bonnet. Before she knows it she is
two hundred yards away , with her hair
Hying hopelessly undone. The
bonnet flutters a moment in the nir ,
drops upon the ice and coasts down the
hill right in the track. If not rescued
quickly , the no\t totyprrfjan will make a
mournful wreck of the work of millinery
art. The alert chaser jumps upon the
slide , grabs tlio bonnet , and then devotes
his attention to evading the coasters. If
the starter has let another toboggan

the chnscr must look out for his leg" , and
sometimes ho escapes being demolished
only by springs into the air and letting a
thunderbolt composed of some three
hundred pounds of beauty and a man ,
shoot under him. Derby hats have to
take morn desperate chances than the
bonnets , because the chaser goes after
them only when the chances are good
for getting out alive , while male hats
usually escape notice until
they have been run over
once or twice. Tlio spectators
along the line manifest disgust and dis
approval when a silk hat is rescued in
unseemly haste. There is something
about the badge of civilization that excites
the destructive instinct in man , and a
crowd always enjoys seeing it demol
ished or mamcated. The spectators at
a toboggan slide consider that they have
been defrauded of rightful entertainment
when a high hat is restored intact to a
swell coaster. Let a chafer miss a bon
net , however , and half a do/.en men will
risk their necks to snatch it from the
paths of the coming toboggan. Girls
who are much addicted to tlio sport , or
wish to be regarded as exports , don't
wear hats or bonnets on a slide. They
follow the Canadian style with toques , or
knit caps , which are picturesque and
never lly off.
So the great London lawyer , Bullau-
tyne , is dead. He has not been well since
his American visit. Probably that trip
didn't kill him , though il must have been
tremendously depressing. He had an
immense reputation in his own country
as a wit , and his idea was to make a
hundred thousand dollars or so lecturing
humorously to us Yankees. Immediately
on his arrival , he invited the editors to
send reporters to interview him. One of
tliesu gentlemen found Bullantync an ur
bane old chap and very anxious for
space in the daily journals. Of coiirso.the
reporter was equally easer to produce a
column or so of matter.- The lawyer
opened his mouth lo speak , and the
other opened his book to take notes. The
Englishman began to toll anecdotes of
tin1 British aristocracy , of actresses and
of clubs.
IT WAS AM. AS DI'LI , AS PUNCH.
The pencil of the journalist did not
touch the paper over which it was ex
pectantly suspended. He could not dis
cern in all that his host was saying a
single line that would be published in a
New York sheet. Muttialiombnrnissment
ensued. Gradually the truth dawued ou
Ballantync. '
"There's no use , " ho said frankly.
"Not only have I told some of my best
stories lo you , but 1 have tried them on
several other gentlemen , and never a
smile have they caused. What can 1 ex
pect , then , ot audiences' ' hero. I shall
have a good time socially in this country ,
no doubt , but I am going to be a failure

And so ho was.

best business men of the city. It isn't a
question of family ancestors ; and obvi
ously it is not a question of monov. Up
the river at Irvington there is quite a set
tlement of millionaires , all active men of
affairs , who attend regularly to business
in the city. They are a sociable lot of
old boys , and like to chat together oa
the way to and from the city. Ten of
them combined , at suggestion of one of
the colony , and made arrangements with
tlio Hudson Kiver railroad for a special
drawing room car on the regular train ,
so that they could be sure of hav
ing seats together every day and bo
free to talk to each other. Each paid his
share of the expenses and was entitled tea
a certain number of seats for himself and
members of Ida family , and altogether it
was a very nice sociable arrangement.
They had a coach , too , at Irvington to
take them from the depot to their homes.
When Jay Gould bought the Merrill
place at Irvington , he thought it would
lie pleasant to join his neighbors in the
special car suhoino. Accordingly ho
made a proposition to chip in and buy
A sr.c-uox OF TIII : WAOXI.U t\\i.Q :
Ills name was puj before Iho Ion busi
ness men one morning and somebody re
lieved the evident constraint of the party
by suggesting that the proper thing wa"s
to votu upon Ihe proposition in llufsamo
way that members of clubs are voted for.
The hat was passed and Jay Gould was
blackballed. Jt is not necessary to say
whether or not the vote was unanimous ,
but lie was refused admission to the
special car. Mr. Gould i.s not a boor in
manners , and he is fairly educated , and
certainly intelligent. But those business
men have curtain ideas about way.s of
making money , and they do nol en'dorso
the methods by which Jay Gould has ac
quired his wealth. They would not re
ceive as an equal a three card luonto
dealer , and in their eyes some forms of
stock operations are no heller limn lliiin-
ble-ritrging. Mr. Gould has an expensive
steam yacht lo take him to and from Irv
ington in summer , and no doubt solaces
himself with Iho satisfaction of making a
bigger show than his neighbors , But
perhaps ho would give the Atlanta for a
seat in that special car.
Gould might retort upon that party as
Col. Iiigorsoll did on David Dews and 1C.
S.Jall'ray , who chanced to have been I wo of
thu very passengers Who'declined lo ride
on the same exclusive ! wheels with Iho
litllo King of Wall street. Dews and Jaf
fray are exemplars of all that is
weighty and dignified ' in business
and society. They had made
remarks , in a church meeting ,
derogatory to the famous , agnostic as a
vicious mumhor of society. The colonel
sat in a Broadway hotel , at twilight ,
watching the passing snow. Dews and
Jaffruy came along , portly , pompous1 aud
airy , Ingersoll started tolils iect. Ho
Ecemcd .shocked and alarmed.
"W hat's the mattery'1 was asked.
"Matter ! " ho wildly cHchiimud , witli
an expletive which my informant kindly
omitted : "There are Dews and Jatlray
out without a chaperonu. "

HOSTON , Jnn. 1 ° . iCorrtspoiHlcnco of
the Ilr.K. ] This week closes tuo engage
ment of tlio American National opera
company in tliis city , and a brilliant on ]
Kagcinunt it has boon. Tor a few open
ing evenings last wcok there was a slight
and scarcely noticeable lack of patron
age , owing to the extremely conscrvathe
character of 1'oston opera patronage , ami
to a false impression prevalent among
local musical circles that the National
company is n private enterprise , run in
the interest of a few heavy stockholders.
No suspicion coulil bo more unjust.
The promoters of 'this great enter
prise are most sincere in their
cllbrts to furnish American cities
with ns good performances of grand
opera as can bo found anywhere in
Knropc. They are men and women rop-
re&ontmg our uest circle * of soeietv ; they
are public spirited lovers of music and
have given much time and money to
achieve a result of which they may well
bo proud.
The magmlicent i > rc. entation of ( ! on-
noil's " 1/mibt" and Verdi's "Aida" have
alone elicited enough nntiio to insure thu
success of the Boston engagement. Jt is
stated on good authority that If the season - '
son hero could be prolonged largo litnui-
cial returns would bo the re nlt. "Aida"
ranks among the best of Verdi's produc
tions. The .subject is a iritlonal Kgyptian
one and the opera WHS wiitteu by" Verdi
at the request of tlio khedive of 1'Xrypt ,
being fust performed in Cairo in " 187- ' .
Its presentation here on Monday night
gave evidence of a perfect mastery of all
the countless details attending Mich a
wonderful performance. The costumes ,
scenery and .stage appointments were
thoroughly Kgyptian. Kvon the pnma
donna , I'urseh Aladi , indcntilied herself
so comuletely with the character of the
Ethiopian slave girl as to assume a color
and make-up which rendered her almost
unrecognizable.
Manager Stetson has revived "I 'a
tienco' at the CJlobe with Miss ( icnildinc
Ulmt > r in the title role. "Patience" has
been well received and will run this
week.
Miss Kortcseno gave Mr. Hamilton's
dramatic version of ( Jidda's "Moths" at
the Park hst night. "Moths" does not
strike .such fertile soil in the "Hub" as it
seems to have done in the metropolis. If
the play were less objectionable from a
moral standpoint , and its sentiment were
true ; its atmosphere natural and its lone
healthy it would leave a decidedly more
agreeable impression.
This i.s tlio third week of Mine , fllodjes-
ka'svery Etieecs-.iful engagement at llollis
Street theatre. Mine. Moiijeska's acting
is fully worthy of the warm praise it re
ceives and she is admirably stinnorted by
Maurice Barrymore , Alary Shaw and Mr.
Ynndcnhou" .
Five o'clock teas are gettinjr a fast hold
upon hociety here. They have become
.so well established that an English
woman has written a cook book especi
ally devoted to the preparation ofnoli
delicacies as are proper for this form of
entertainment , lircad , butter and tea
no longer stand alone within the prov
ince of the C o'clock tea table. Besides
these , "old standbys , " if 1 may use
that cxpresilvo term , cakes and 'sand
wiches of all kinds , and various onp < <
and cooling drinks have been added to
the unwritten menu of that occasion.
Whatever the future of the
live o'clock tea may be. it stands in high
favor now , and it is even hinted that
since marriage hours have been extended
to the afternoon , the live o'clock tea will
soon take the place of heavy wedding
breakfast" . As a simple way of return
ing social tavors it seems to have taken
precedence above all others unions very
lashionablo people , and it is a great boon
to society people ot limited means , or to
those who wish to avoid the cares of a
large dinner part } .
But the operas and fi o'clock teas are
not the only things which eiigaire the
attention of society folk this winter. ' Be
side the usual social duties and diver
sions wo have had more than our just
ntiota of physical inquiries and research.
The mind reading craze look Boston by
storm. For weeks , old and young have
been plunging into its intricacies with
as much relish us the London papers dis
played in discussing the Colin-Campbell
divorce cn'-o. But no sooner does Mr.
Bishop's star begin to set , than up rises
another , and apparently a brighter one ,
in the shape of Mr. I'xJ Heron
Allcn'a lectures and seances on cheiroso-
or the science ot the * hand.
. Heron Allot. I ' not a gyp.vy ortuno
teller nor a revealer of dark mysteries ,
but n scientific lecturer , whom .scientific
men in London and New York have
given every consideration and encour
agement. Ho has studied the hand as
many eminent phrenologists have studied
this head , and has elevated palmistry to
tlio dignity of a science , liaving devoted
Ins whole life to the work. He has made
a specialty of thn action of the brain upon
the hand , and has only to sco the fatter
to form his opinion as to other causes
which have produced the visible elTeets , It
is not tlio spiritualistic cranks who give
audience to Mr. Heron Allen , but the
people who form that little world called
"society , " and it is safe to say that in a
ucpk the craze will bo as prevalent hero
ns it has been in Lonnnn , Paris or Now
York.w

Last winter Buddhism and Browning
engaged the minds of ardent society
students. This winter Psychology seem ?
to liiiyo superseded Buddhism , but the
Browning fever is still burning , For
some unaccountable reason JJrowning
clubs sprang into existence last winter
without a moments warning , and in
two days tlio bookstores wore un
able to supply the demand for that
poets' books. There began one con
tinued grind among young and old to
old to icrrot tlio moaning ol a line or two
of "In a Balcony" or "Thu Flight of the
Duchess , " but in vain I Only one or two
of the most enduring members of the
wet towel fraternity caught a faint glim
mer ot Jiuht from a poem or two. As for
the gentler sux , alas ! It i.s said that
there is but one woman in Boston that
understands any of Browning , and she
has only succeeded in solving tlio mys
teries of one poem. It is not known w'ho
the woman is or what the poem is.
But lot's not lidiciiln the Uostoninns
for studying Browning. That gentle
man has been culled a successful pout ,
and it would bo a shame not to have any
one in America who can read him intel
ligently , If Boitonians can't read him
who can ? Therefore let them road on !
Boston may have her own ways , but
let's bo thankful for her.
