These dogs have as regular meal hours n the chateau guests, and their feed is pre pared with the greatest of care, nnd only given them In certain portions. Ne race herse could have mere attention than these hounds, nnd their coats nre as glossy nnd sleek as any finely groomed colt's. A few days nfter my arrival I wns told te prcpnre for a hunt the following morn ing, and ns this would be my first experi ence In the hunting field my excitement was intense. At 0 o'clock en the morn ing set for the event, I was reused from my Bleep by n loud noise, nnd a few mo ments after, Ccllne, my maid, came hur riedly In with my warm water, saying that the breakfast gong had Just sounded and that the horses were already In the court yard. It did net take me very long te den my habit, nnd I was down in the dining hall almost ns early ns the ethers. The gentlemen wero their pink coats, with bright horns Biting ever the shoul ders, their short riding breeches were et tan colored corduroy, and with high beets nnd spurs they looked ready for any thing. The ladies were the usual riding habit, but made very short, hardly cover ing the tip et a patent leather beet; we all wero (spurs, as well as our escorts, nnd soft felt bats te match our habits. A HIT Or DltnAKFAST. This morning's dejeuner was a very dif ferent ene from the general first break fast, ns we could net tell nt what hour we would 1k able te lunch. There were cold meats nnd eggs In every style, besides a cutlet for nny one who desired it. The gentlemen, I noticed, drank wlne this morning, Instead et their cafe au lalt.

The dogs, even, seemed te knew that geed snort lay bcfeie them, nnd it was nil the piqucur could de te held them in leash; and when, ntlaft, the sig nal was given vthlch set them free, the howl of Jey they sent up was nlmet pltl ' f ul.

My cousin and I were In nt the death, and drew strnws for the brush, I w as fertunate enough le win It, nnd n few days later It was pre sented te me handsomely mounted in silver, as a souvenir of my first hunt In fair France. The horns sounded the peer fox's cud, and very shortly the stragglers had gathered round te t.de the dogs take their reward. We we re invited te breakfast It was lunch, really with Baren de ljisteurs, whose place, lay nearest us, nnd a ride of four miles brought us te Chateau Mont Ment Mont Jel, the baron's residence. It was n dear llttle place, net pretentious in any ro re spect, surrounded by beautiful grounds, nnd built far mere for comfort than for show. The stublcs were even liner Hum the se called chateau it did net deserve such ft grand name and for a whlle be fore the dejeuner, we admired the many line horses which were our host's weak nesses. In ft brlgtt nnd airy dining room we found covers laid for nbeut forty, nnd St did net take much urging te mnke us sit down te the Inviting repast There were net places at table for nil, se a number steed nbeuf the room, which ndded te the merriment ana aid away with all cere mony.

What odds te the wonder Is that many ether bones were broken, as well as thcccrvic.il verte brae, and when he wns picked up, the doc tors said he was dying and left him te nature for several hours. As he was a very strong nnd healthy man, he pulled through, nnd new ranks with Alexis St. Martin, the man wltlt n side deer te his stomach. Jerry E. Baldwin was liern lu New Yerk city, In IBM, nnd In 1887 was yard- master at iir nilnghnni, Ala., fur the Louisville nnd Nashville railroad. Before daylight et March 10 he was stand ing in n caboeso en a side track, when a runaway engine came down the track nt ter-i rifle speed, and struck the train te which the ca ca ca beoso was at tached; he fell te thn trnrk nnil tlin engine and six Jtrmv E- AUww. cars ran ever him, breaking his right leg in two places, his left leg nnd 11 ve ribs, lesldes snapping the sixth cervical verte bra' (et the neck) nnd splintering the Joint between the sixth nnd seventh vertebra. All his clothes were tern off nud n very ugly hele was made lu his side. He was taken home nud laid en n bed te die, ns the doctors said he must In n few min utes. But when nt the end of six hours he was found le be breathing stronger, Drs. G tickle, Cepclnutl and Barclay de termined upon n series of experiments te save his lfe, in which they were finally successful. After resetting ns many et thp bones as possible, they encased him wholly In a plaster of pnrls frame, nnd thus llrmly straightened he lay en ft rub ber mattress filled with water for four months. After that he lay two months In bed. Fer fourteen days he was totally blind, nnd for bIx months wns only occa sionally conscious; then his recovery be gan te be noticeable from day te day. Dr. A. J. Baxter, of Chicago, designed for him n corset, reaching from the hips te the back et the neck, and holding his body firmly in position; at the top et it n flcxlble bar et steel is attached, which rises above his head, and te ih ita wired u "Jury mask," which lielli his head up. The weight et the head thus rests upon the hips. The experiment of removing the mhsk has been tried, but the head nt ence sinks upon (he spinal column, the neck being useless, and he relapses Inte n comnteso condition.

The latter said he would test It, because he had a mnchlne he get from two Wisconsin farmers that would grind the coal out of sight If necessary. Twe young Wisconsin farmers were plowing when they saw n cyclene coine along safely out of their way, and tear ti town tip. Tbey noticed hew the two currents of air, moving in opposite directions, knocked houses, barns nud paving stones into smlthcrecns. The thought struck ene of them that It that prlnciple could be applied In machinery, It would make the biggest grind in the world. Se the young men, whose name was Raymond, nnd who were brothers, went te Chicago and Invented a machtne that they called the cyclene pulverizer. Wiman met the Raymonds and they were his, nnd se was their machine. The Statcn Islander has n fortune In the pulverizer, which has yet te meet a material it can not reduce te powder, I am told, and the Raymonds were paid a fortuneby Wiman for their discovery. Se McCauley nnd Wiman formed a combination. Wlmnn's machlne pul verized the coal and McCauley tested his process at the big Chester works. It was a success beyond doubt, nnd had It been put Inte operation before natural gas was discovered, it would have had a clear monopoly of the Held. It isn't a free putt te say that pulverized coal sprayed into a furnacq unquestionably saves the' manu facturer hundreds et dollars a day. The big furnace men at Chester and ent in Ohie say se. and se de all' the big guns in the manufacturing realm who were' present nt the Chester exhibition. Out side of the natural gas localities pulver ized coal is going te be the fuel of the future McCauley and Wiman are even bold enough te say that they will confront, natural gas right in Pittsburg with sprayed coal. The conflict ought te be an Interesting one. Ccrtalu it is that te the industrial world the new process of Mc Cauley is the biggest Item of news it has received for years. Cor. Bosten Glebe. Kte ricld'a "Ce-operative" Flan. ICate Field Is known te lie a wemau of versatile talent, but is hardly suspected, by these net intimately acquainted with her, te hate the qualities that go te make a geed housekeeper. She showed great tact for that feminine branch of art wheu she had n house of her own in Devenshire street, Londen, it few years age. She had been living for some time in hotels, board beard ing houses and lodgings, was tired et nil nnd determined te set up for herself. Having no desire te 11 ve tCsue,,she made a plan by which she would have company and nil the comforts of a home, and still have the bills shared by ethers. She called the plan "co-operation," the S3rae name she gnve te another nnd mero ex ex tcuslve undertaking en this side of the water. It worked well as far as thoce-opcr-ntives were concerned they were all per fectly satisfied. She furnished reams nt low prices nnd the kind of feed that Is longed for it you llve at n restaurant nnd dreamed about if you have te llve at home. After dinner every ene found the drawing room plcasautcr than any ether room in that or any ethor house, and there the friends congregated, for, of course, they were all friends et the host ess. They chatted nnd played cards until the "night cap" hour came round, nnd r.ftcr a mild libation retired te bed "K. F.," as she was familiarly called, made it success of what she undertook except as far ns she was concerned. "Ce-operation" turned out te be only it name, for it was she who did all the work, battled with drunken cooks, fought the iroublesemo trades-people, and received only in return unshared if Wclcome praise. It is net te be wondered at It nt the end of three months the project wns given up. New Yerk Press "Every Day Talk." A lire Wenhlper' Child. Ou the birth of a Parsce child, ainaglan and n lira priest, who Is always an as trologer, are called in te predict the fu ture life et the babe. The magian, dressed in it strange rebe of many colors, n pointed cap with jingling bells, and armed with u long broom made et be res ma twigs (which Is thought te have the iewcr of putting evll spirits te flight), enters the chamber of the Parsee mother and babe nud, setting the end of his broom ou lire, dances around, exercising the evil spirits; finally he flourishes his firebrand ever tlie mother and child nnd In all the coiners et the room. This done, the tire priest draws a number of squares en a blackboard; In ene corner of each square he draws a curious flgure of bird, beast, fish or Insect, each of which stands for bome incutal, physical or spiritual char acteristic, together with its appropriate star or planet. The magian then proceeds by menus of spells and incantations te ex ex ex orclse nny evil spirit thnt may be lurking unseen In the blackboard. Next the fire priest begins te count and recount the stars under whose iulliieuce the child Is 8upiescd te be born, nnd then with cleecd eyes nnd solemn veice he predicts the fu ture llfe of the babe. Next he prepares a horoscope or birth paper aud hands It te the father. Then, placing the babe en his knees, he waves ever it the sacred flame, sprinkles it with holy water, flits Its cars nud nostrils with bea salt te keep out the evil spirits, nnd finally returns the screaming infant te its mother's arms. Airs. Leouewens lu Wide Awnke. YVeaian In hnltxcrlaml. Seme persons seem te find much com fort lu the statement that Swiss women dispute the most lucrntlve trades with men; but really before bowing down nnd worshiping the country of economy, it will de no harm te remember that the women also dlspute the work of agricult ure with the men and even with the ani mals, There Is no gallantry or chivalry about n Swiss at home. He is said te be honest in his natlve wilds when net keep ing it hotel, and it should be remembered thnt he has n tremendous stock of hon esty te draw upon In thnt left behind as useless by his countrymen serving lu va rious European armies, but for sentiment toward women he has no use whatever.
