One evening last winter , when a party of statesmen , having laid aside tem porarily the cares of legislation , wore gathered at Chamborlin's. in Washing ton , discussing a hot bird and n cold bird , Senator Jones of Nevada turned to Senator Voorhoes of Indiana and said : "Voorhcos , did you over hear of the sick man for whom Governor Nye wanted to send for a minister ; ' ' ' Voorhces said ho had not. "Well,1' said Jones , "it was while Nye was governor of Nevada in the early ( iO's. An old friend of his was clown sick at Carson. Nye saw the end was near , and showed his old friend every attention possible , and tried to mitigate his sufferings. As the end approached , and it became evident that the sick man could last but a few hours longer , Nye said to him : " 'David , it is best yon should know the truth. You nro n very , sick man , and can hardly last but a little time longer. Are your nllairs in n condition you would wisli to leave them ? If not , I will bo glad to do anything I can for you. ' " 'Oh , yes , they nro all right. ' " 'Would you not like me to write to your friends in the east ? ' asked thof governor. " 'No , not now. After it is all over. ' ' "Wouldn't you like mo to call in a minister ; " asked Nye solemnly. ' 'The pick man here mtuio a great effort , and succeeded in raising his wasted and worn frame to a sitting posture. Then looking earnestly at Nye ho baid in as strong tones of rebuke as bis wasted condition would permit : " 'Why , Governor Nye ? Why should I want a minister ? 1 never voted the democratic ticket in all my life , ' and ho fell buck dying , but with a triumphant look on his face. " The assembled statesmen laughed , and Voorhces whispered something to the waiter. Then ho turned to Jones and said : "Did I over tell you anout the reply an old democrat down in the 'knobs' of Indiana once made to Henry S. Lane ? " Hero the waiter returned , and after ho had deposited on the table afresh quart , Jones assured Voorhces that he had never heard of this retort. "Well , " said Voorhces , "Lane had a neighbor , an old farmer with but ono eye- , who was a staunch democrat. Ono day Lane .said to him : " 'Mr. Henderson , I have been puzzled for a long time to understand how so bcnsiblc a man as you are could bo a democrat , but I understand It now. You have but ono eye , and therefore can only see ono side , or half as much as other people. " " 'Mr. Lnno , ' replied Henderson , 'wo read in the good book that when the eye is single the whole batty ibfull of light. " " Again the statesmen smiled , and it was Jones' turn to whisper to the waiter. VERNE'S DREAM. Buhmnrluo ItonU Which Fulfill tlio 1'ropli- I'ey of thu Nnutilui. A few weeks ago the Navy department opened proposals for constructing n , sub marine boat , and the answers received wore submitted to a board of naval ox- ports. The board has made a report , says the Washington Post , in which they Buy that of all the plans submitted but two appear to bo promising of prac tical results. These are what are known as the Hol land boat und the Bukor boat , und the board seeks for opportunity to muko further investigation into their merits , und to hour personally from the in ventors , both of which requests Secre tary Herbert bus granted. The two bouts selected for examina tion huvo bomo points of resemblance In urcnorul aspect. Each uses steam as the propelling power when on the surface , and elec tricity supplied by a storage buttery charged by the main engines when sub merged. When they dive under the water both bouts lioufao their smoke stacks und bcul ull openings with iron plates. " No Tlino for I.ope * 1'ntrloU. An old gentleman passing through Thirteenth street , near Sixth avenue , says the Now York Times , saw two boys engaged In a live light , IIo orobsed the street for the purpose of separating them.

Uncle Sam has boon exploring the "slums" in fifteen of the principal cities of the United States and has just finished his great bight-seeing spree. This is the lirst time in the history of the republic that Uncle Sam has visited the slums. But for twelve months ho has been 'doing" the notorious dives , dance halls , and . opium joints in all cities from New York to San Francibco. Tlio joint resolution passed by con gress a year airo provided that prelim inary examinations of the slums should bo made in fifteen of the principal cities of the United States , the smallest being Cleveland , O. The cities to bo investi gated wore New "VJork , Chicago , Boston , Philadelphia , Brooklyn , St. Louis , In dianapolis , Cincinnati , Now Orleans , Sail Francisco , Cleveland Pittsburg , Detroit , Kansas City and St. Paul. A special agent'of the United States Department ofLabor , Mr. O. A. Ber nard , was assigned to the work of slum investigation , and it is ho who has repre sented Uncle Sam in porson-in this novel expedition. Mr. Bernard is about to make his report nt Washington , having just returned from San Francisco , the slums of that city having been the lust inspected. M' ' . Bernard'eaidt "Tho"most strik ing thing shown was the apparent fact of the tfemondou3 ; Uproatl of the drug habit aud the devastation it is causing among tons of thousundp'of white people in the United States. It is no longer the criminal classes that recruit the slums , but the victims of the cocaine and morphine and opium habits. My investigations-ill this direction showed conclusively that there is an immediate check necessary to bevput on the sale of these drugs. The law is not stringent enough us it stands now. and almost any one can get nil of the drugs they desire. "These drugs by degrees bring their victims to the lowdst depths of deprav ity. Every physician in the land should at once refuse to use tliese drugs men tioned except in the most urgent cases , and refuse to .prescribe them after the emergency is over. Many of the cocaine and morphine fiends I have questioned said it was through the heedlessness - lessness of physicians that they first acquired the habit , and once acquired it was impossible to shako off the demon. Morphine , cocaine and opium are the best feeders the slums have today. " Balloon at 3 and 8 , Courtland Bench.

"Let nil those perfumed but trashy mixtures alone. Few of them have any virtues ; many of them are positively injurious to the skin and not ono of them is bettor than the simple , old-fashioned remedies that anybody can prepare at homo. If the skin is hot , dry and smarting with burn , noth ing will relieve it any more readily than mutton tallow or plain olive oil applied with the hands and gently rubbed into the ' pores. If the skin will sttCnd it give it n mild massage with an easy , upright rub , first bathing the face in water as hot as one can stand. There in nothing like massage for removing the soreness and burning feeling. Don't use too much soup and beware of the fancy brands. They are nearly all ir ritating.

Well done ; I can see your light much bettor all right. " This was the message Hashed from the Boughton tolopbotos'to the little crowd m the Bird island pier last night about 0 o'clock , savs the BulTulo Express. It vns roiid by nearly every one in the crowd who know the Morse alphabet , and proved that Mr. C. V. Boughton " "ms at last solved the problem of signul- ng by means of lights. Telegraph up- jrators and they were almost ns plenti- ' 'ul us the Canada ( lies pronounced the mproved telepliotos a great success and Mr. Boughton was kept' very busy re ceiving the congratulations of his friends. From the time of Christopher Colum- jus the method of communication be- -ween ships at sea 1ms changed but little. Jolumbus doubtless Used lanterns in transmitting his messages at night : Tohn Paul Jones used rcekets of various colors and read their meanings by a complicated alphabet ; Admiral Farra- , 'iit , nearly 100 years later than tlic rov- .ilutiomiry "old salt , " still used rockets , and it was only a few years ago that a Frenchman introduced a system of sig naling by means of electric lights. This tystcni was based upon the Morse alpha- jet. but never proved much of a success. To Mr. C. V. Boughton of this city uolongs the credit of producing an in- itrumcnt almost as wonderful as the telegraph of B. F. Morse. Last night Lho telephotos , upon which Mr. Bough- ton has been working for several years , was placed upon the roof of the ctir-senl factory at the corner of Seventh and Hudson streets nnd was operated by Miss Sanford , who sat in the ollice of the building. The dots and dashes of bright light , produced by electric incan descent lights , could be distinctly seen by the witnesses on Bird-island pier , about a mile away , and a letter contain ing ninety words was sent in fifteen minutes. Mr. Boughton claims that fifty words a minute can bo sent by a person familiar with the keyboard , and of course it can bo read as fast as it can be sent. But the most wonderful part of the exhibition last nierht was the fact that Messrs. C. L. Bullymore and Albert Hollpway , sitting on tlio veranda of Mr. Bullymore's summer homo nt Point Abino , about 10 miles from the telephotos - photos , read the signals with the great est ease. Mr. Boughton has patented his inven tion , not only hero In the United States and Canada , butinsovenothercountries. The telephotos will be exhibited before the army and navy boards of the old world. It is hoped the United States will not lot this American invention pass into general use in the navies of the other countries before she adopts it herself. All of the great steamship companies have been examining the in vention und in a few years a. person on ti foreign-bound steamer will bo able to send a telegraphic message to a homo- ward-bound steamship by means of Brighton's tclophotos , mid thence to his friends at home.

Kelloy. a contractor of this city and now manager of the horse market on Grand avenue , between Fifth street and Mis souri avenue , by a very clover ruse , stopped a run on a bank and prevented its going to the wall way back in 1871 , bays the Kansas City Journal. At that time the Kansas City Savings associa tion , now the National 'Bank of Com merce , was located at the southwest cor ner of Fourth and Delaware streets. Mr. Kelley was then secretary and cashier of the Corrigan Street Railway company and the company's account wab kept at the bank. The much-despised penny was not then in general use hero as now. People ple wore ashamed to pay-for any article with pennies , except , perhaps , postage stamps , and the old-fiibhioncd "faro box" in the cars became a dumping ground for thorn. From $3 to $ T ) in pen nies would bo found in the boxes by Mr. Kelley every day. IIo usually dumped them In saolcs and stored them away in the company's vault. During the crisis of ' 71 the people became very much excited nnd flocked to the bunks in droves to withdraw their deposits. Runs were made on nearly all the banks in the city and several wore forced to suspend. Ono /lay a run was made upon the Kansas City Savings bank , nnd the people wore lined up wait ing their turns to reach the tellers , who were paying out money by the , basket ful , when a happy thought struck Mr. Kolloy. Ho went to the police btution , bcourcd three policemen to guard his treasure , loaded eight sucks of coppers upon a wheelbarrow and took them down to the bank. The backs had orig inally contained gold and were labeled 1 on the outbido " $ . " > ,000" in great big black letters. Arriving at the bank , ono old colored woman , who hud como to withdraw her small savings , culled out : "Why , Mistah Kelley , whu' fo' yo1 put all that money in here when wo so a-drawln' our money out ? " Kelley replied : "That's all right. This bunk isn't ' going to bust. I can put more money in hero in ono day than all you people can draw out In six months , " as ho trudged Into the bank with the last sack. This display of confidence on the part of the street railway company hud a quieting effect upon the crowd and It rapidly dwindled away. The backs contained just , 10 , but it saved the bunk.

THE ART OF RIDING A RACE HORSE Tarn ) , ( Inrrlinn , llcrern , MoDrrmott , llnni- lUon nnil Mmnm. mid Their 1'cry oii.tt IVcnlliultle * Incident * of the 'track. Twenty thousand dollars a year for riding a horse ! Sounds extravagant , dosen't ' it ? Yet more than oneof our crack jockeys re ceives this in retainers from 'their regular employers and fees for outside mounts , not to mention liberal gifts from grateful plungers whose bank accounts have been increased by the efforts of'the winning jock. One would think that , after a few sea sons of this port of thing , the successful jockey would retire from the. saddle and keep a yacht , but in most instances it is an axeinplillcation of come-easy , go-easy , and the money earned in , the pigskin Is dissipated at the green tables and in the betting ring , and when his day is past , when ho becomes too heavy to ride or loses his nerve , the cnstwhtlo star slips back into obscurity , living as best ho may on the i glory of the past and the occasional picking : which fall to the lot of n has-been. There are exceptions to this rnlehow- over , as to all others , and men can bo ' pointed out now livingquiotly upon little fortunes put by for rainy days or In the less sensational roles of trainers , whoso names In their time were ns synonyms of excellence , as are those of TuYtil or Garrison risen now. But piloting race horses to victory is a calling requiring peculiar talents of head and hand. It is not fctrango that , in n Held involving both ' entlmcnt and cash , the employer should wok the best , and bo willing to pay for it. In these days of great stake races , whore fortunes' are hung out as prix.es , thousands are accounted well expended in securing the services of a rider whoso ability nnd honesty are beyond question. On this season's work , says tlio Now York Recorder , Fred Turul heads the list . of winning jockeys. Beginning with , the Brooklyn handicap on May 15 , ho had placed s-Kli.OOO to the credit of his various employers when ho finished bee- end on' St. Leonards in the $115,000 American derby at Chicago , thereby in creasing Messrs. James H. and Foxhall Keono's cash assets$10,000. . Through the commanding lead that Boundless held in the last sixteenth of this great race , those who buw it were deprived of an opportunity of comparing the styles of Turul and Garrison , who rode "the I winner , as , had it been a "lighting linihh1 each of these rivals of the pig skin would have * mndo the ride of his life. Garrison's victory in the derby , by the way , was only bis second win this season ; but as it carried oil a prl/.o of $50.000 , it may bo regarded as olVbOlting in a great measure his previous failures. Taral is a strongly built little man , with a cheerful face and honest blue eyes , corroborative of the character his performances in the saddle have earned for him that he always rides as straight as a string. As first jock for Wnleott . .V Campbell ho draws $ lli,000u season. The Messrs. Keene , Tor the privilege of second end call on his services , pay him in the neighborhood of $8.000. There is nothing , - ing in his appearance to denote a man who enjoys an income of such miiiriu- tudc. Meeting him on the lawn in his negligee , bhirt , suck contain ! sober straw hat , one would bet him down as a moder ately well-to-do family man out for'n iluy'h ] lleusuro. Ho is a great friend of John L. Sullivan , and can generally bo found in his cumtmny when the ox- cliampion visits- New York. Together they make a pair which Sullivun de scribes as "big and little cahiuo. " Taral is married anil has a family , but those who know him say that thrift is not one of his strong characteristics- that but little of his earnings is saved. Taral got his early training in the west , and his present bticco , s is the re sult of long years of hard work as well as a special aptitude for his business. A great part of this success i.s duo to his golden rule : ' 'Never stop riding until you've passed the judges. " Taral con- bidet's the lirst requisite of a good jo-jkoy to bo n cool head. "No matter how line a seat in the saddle nor how good his hands , * ' ho says , "if a jockey gets excited - cited hi u elo.-o finish lie will never be anything but a secondclassrider. . Nino- tent IIB of the boys who want to become jockeys never learn to keep cool , hence the really first-class jockeys' are bcarco. " The very antithesis : of Taral , except- in the awful energy with Which ho rides a close finish , is Garrison , affectionately called by an admiring public , "Tho Snapper. " Tall and slender , Garrison is a bit of a dude in dress , and a stranger seeing him on the club house lawn , in garments of the most fashionable make , a flower in hid coat , gloves on his hands , nnd field glasses over his shoulder , would find it dilllcult to believe that he and the long-legged jockey who buemed literally to lift his hor.se oil' the ground in the race just ran wore ono and the same. Gurribou is first jockey for Marcus Daly , the Montana million aire , and receives a salary of $15,000 a bt'tison. His weight ho can't ride now below 115 pounds by losbuning his availability has curtailed his earnings from casual mounts1 , but ho manages to have a pretty good time in life , owns a few race horses himself , and will proba bly , like his old-time rival , .lames Me1 1 Laiighlin , turn his attention to training when unable to reduce to riding weight. Garrison is morp of a general man about towi ) than uuy. s > f nis brother knights of the baddlo , and is a crack pigeon shot as well , being a frequent competitor at the traps in the vnrjous amateur tourneys in the vicinity of Now York. Garrison is a graduate of "Father Bill" Daly's stublcs. Whatever may bo Baid of this eccuntrlc turfman , it is gen erally conceded that a buy who has served an apprunticoBhip to him has been put through a thorough course of sprouts. The Snapper rldos with a very bhort stirrup and bows his back and jdiouldcrs into a hump that would equip a hunchback. Gripping the hon > e tightly with his knees , and working hands and body in uninm with the motion of the animal , ho times his rushes to a nicety , and bCt'ins literally to lift his mount and hhovo it along by bheor nervous btrongth. Another "jock" who is oxpunoiiclng the fickleness of fortune in the small number of winning mounts ho ha * hml this PcoHon Is Marty lU'rgoti. With tlm faro of u misanthrope , Horgcn , t'Uhorln the saddle or out of it , Impresses the lw- holder as ono who had found life to bo but Dead Sen fruit. When not "sport- . Ing silk" ho looks for nil the world llk < \ ono who hail lost his last dollar on tlm race , nnd was wearing his hands in bin pockets as a euro for their emptiness. \et for nil his sleepy looks ho 1ms snatched many a race out of tlm tire by the vigor of his finishing. Ills favorlto Htylu of riding Is to "wait. " nursing hU horse for a grand tMvo at the end , and his method is moro effective than grace ful. Bergen has "frco-luueod" nlnco early last reason , when ho , taking of- feiiso at a remark made by Dnvo Oitloon- . tore tip Ills contract with "that turfman , thereby surrendering $10,000 for Ills season's work. 11 o Is a Call for n Inn , nboul 21 years old , but came east ns a child and , like all the other miivossful jockeys , served his time as a stable b > v. It was in the service of the Into "Larry" Jerome , founder of .leromo park , that ho first learned to sit on n horse. Ber gen will probably last longer than any of the others , as ho can ride at lot pounds without reducing. The new starof the lightweight riders is 1 atsy MePormott , a young man who rode into fame Juno 20 hist , when ho piloted Lowlander to victory in the suburban , lie had already ridden into fortune , for ho has saved and invested the earnings of several yearn in tht > sad dle , and was known to habitues of the race track as the "coupon-cutting jockey" long before his ride on the suburban winner brought him to the at tention of the public. His career has been hitherto moro closely identified with the minor track * , on which ho had managed to accumulate a comfortable little fortune wliilo contributing. ! * ) the support of a mother and a brood of young brothers and sisters. Since the retirement of Inane Murphy from the regular employ of custom racing men the negro has had no repre sentative among the star jockeys of that section. Although Hamilton , who rides for the Blemton stable , as Mr. Belmont's racing establishment is called , and Simms , who pilots Pierre Lorriilard's ' horses , both colored , are jockeys of un usual ability , neither ranks with Taral or Garrison. Hamilton , who no longer electrifies the grand stand with those energetic finishes which once earned for him the sobriquet of "Tho Black Demon - mon , " is mid $11,000 for his services. Rumor places Slmmti * retainer at $10- (100 ( , but $8,000 is probably nearer the mark. -s A good story in told on Hamilton which aptly illustrates the rapidity with which good jockeys make money ami the slight idea they have of its value. Before going west to get married a veur or two ago he gave Lakeland , * ( i,000 to take care of for him , but , running short , drew $1.000 of it. On his return ho went to Lakeland and asked the loan of $1,000. Lakeland said nothing and gave him the money. Shortly afterward llamil- loiuippourod uguln'before the famous trainer , and in a shamefaced uy pleaded guilty to being "hard np" and said he'd like to borrow $200 more. IIo got it , and within liveday.s returned and tendered Lakeland the'$1.200. Ho was much surprised to learn that instead of his owing Lakeland $1,200 the latter still had $800 of his money , ho having completely fo- gotten the balance of $2.000. But these golden opportunities are fleeting' for with advancing years comes llesh and the jockey grows too heavy to meet the racing requirements or loses , lLs | coolness of head , and with it hjn use fulness , ( tp , taking life and limb in baud , as ho does whenever ho faces the starter , an accident stretches him on a bed of sic cnes.s from which ho arises .so shaken in nerve that bin career in the saddle is ended. There is now in a Brooklyn hospital with broken bones Goorfo Taylor , a j.-ekoy of no menu fame east and west , while in another hospital there lies an English jockey who eamo to this country to ride the horses bent out by Colonel North , and whose bones were awfully crushed in an accident in which the horse ho rode was killed. Taking into consideration the self-denial involved in keeping at a riding weight , and the constant danger to which they arc exposed , the career of a jockey is no child's'piny. . But an in come in live figures is a balm for a great nuiny woos. Balloon at.'t and 8 , Coin-Hand Bjach. WOLF TAIL BILL. An IntfruhtniK Clmi'.K-Irr Srlilom Ncirn In CIrlll/ml llniintH.
