record to her credit that may never be beaten,

the like of which, old yachtsmen said, has
never been seen in these waters.
it was a-phenomenal contest in phenomenal
weather, for, as if by magic, when the commit
tee got ready to start the yachts, the fog and
northeast wind that brought it vanished, and
in bait an hour a spanking breeze from the
sonth'ard, made to order, came galloping over
the Long Island bills to Larehmont, just in
time.

THE
, THE FO0IJLE IN COURT:
How a Man Will Fight for His Dog Some
Fanny Cases of Mistaken Canine Identity
A Case Suddenly Closed.
The ferocious dog plays an important part
in tbe proceedings of the county courts,
scarce a term of the Quarter Sessions pass
ing without some one being called to smart
in damages for his aggressiveness. The
animal in question is, of no particular
dimensions, ranging in size from a 40-ounce
poodle or black and tan terrier to the 180
pouud mastiff, fit Bernard or Newfound
land. "Strike me, strike my dog," is an adage
that has grown musty by age, bat it has not
lost any of its flavor, and among the Aryans
the dog is held in folly as much esteem as
be was in. the dap of Ulyssns, and is as
much esteemed for his constancy to his
master.
A ferocious dog case tried not long since
was provocative of sufficient fun to keep tbe
Court in good humor from opening to close
ot the case. The first question raised by
the defense was whether or no the dog in
question could be considered the personal
property of the defendant, and it hinged
on the -registry of the canine. It
was proven that the dog bad been
registered, " bnt It was shown that it
wasn't nntil after the bitingthad been
done, so the owner fortified his place of non
owneiship. But the attorney for the de
fense wasn't satisfied with this vindication,
holding that in any event the dog was too
small to inflict anv damages worth speaking
of to the person of the prosecutor. A great
deal of testimony was taken and the wit
nesses seemed to have gotten dogs mixed,
and others that it was a very diminu
tive affair. Finally: in summing np his
speech, tbe attorney for the defense covered
the plaintiff and his counsel with confusion
by saying: "Now, gentlemen of the jury,
ve vill convince you of the utter want of
truth in the vitnesses for the prosecution.
Dere vas dthe corpus delicti," at tbe same
time drawing the offending poodle from the
pocket of his linen duster.
The exhibition proved more than all that
had been affirmed as to the dog's ability to
injure, and the dramatic effect could only
be appreciated by those who saw it.
HE BESTED HIS POOR ABE
Poor Old TJnclo Konndpnnncu's Fnnny Ex
perience on a Car.
Ban Francisco Examiner 1
Uncle Boundpauncli (that isn't his name,
but it will do) is more than middle
aged and very near sighted, bnt his'heart is
young, even if his right ioot is swollen, and
his chestnut carls are infrequent
Uncle Uonndpaunch was on His way to
pay a three days visit to a friend at San
Bafaelv '''
Iowa's evening when he crossed the bay,
and the cars were no better lighted than
they usually are. Uncle Uonndpaunch.
seated himself beside a plump female form,
the face of which was heavily veiled. Soon
the old gentleman's arm was extended along
the back of the seat. It touched the lady,
who shrank away.
"I meant no offense, miss," said he in a
fatherly tone, "but my arm has been broken,
and I cannot let it bang down without great
pain."
She nodded the acceptance of the apolo
gy, and they rode on in silence. But that
broken arm kept getting closer and closer,
until at last it reposed very snugly around
the lady's waist After tbe first shrinking
she made no resistance, but kept her face
averted.
His friend awaited him at the station. As
Uncle Uonndpaunch belped the lady from
the car bis friend spoke to her.
"Well, Mary, did you order those pota
toes?" It was his friend's colored housekeeper,
and she leered at poor Uncle Boundpaunch
during tbe whole three days of his visit

HOW EKGLAND HAS THE BEST OP IT.
The question of money will probably al
ways remain an interesting one, and it is
said that to insure some' people reading
a newspaper it is necessary to put this
"$" before each article. An active banker
yesterday had something more interesting
to say at this juncture than the prosaic dis

paper; 6 per cent is the discount rate, when
it is well known that this has been the rate,
except in exceptional circumstances, for
quite a number of years. The subject mat
ter must be very.interesling . to he able to
stand so much reiteration.
The banker referred to was moved to talk
on account of the bank notes now in circu
lation. It wasn't the "barren breed of
metal" he was discussing. He stated that
the Secret Service Department of the Gov
ernment did an immense amount of good
work for which, the general public gave it
nn credit, and that, were it not for its
exertions in breaking up counterfeiting
gangs and spotting their work, all people in
business would find it necessary to make a
study that would distinguish the false from
the trne, just
AS BANKEBS MUST DO.
When a good counterfeit becomes exten
sively circulated, the only way'toprevent
mnch mischief is to destroy tbe original
plate and cease making the genuine. -This
not only puts the public on guard, but lays
crisp new notes of that denomination under
strict scrutiny, and -soon blocks the counter
feiter's game. '
The remedy suggested by this banker is
to diminish the different, kind's of notes J
or instance, vrovernneut notes areprinteu
from half a dozen different kinds of plates,
and be whowould detect counterfeits must
make.a jcfoso study of all. Bankers and
olhers whose business it js to handle large
amounts of money become expert in detec
tion; but it is not'these that suffer, but men
who do not handle much money, and can
not take the time to study the matter.
He calls attention to the factthat counter
feiters give much less trouble in England
than here, and attributes it to the simple
fact that bank notes there are uniform, and
the man who is- able to own a "fi'-pnn"
note is generally sufficiently familiar with
its appearance to detect an imitation, jnst
as in this country any business man of ordi
nary penetration is able to detect spurious
silver coin on account of his frequently
handling it
When mutilated coin was discriminated
against it soon ceased to pass readily; peo
ple were soon educated'sufficiently to notice
holes punched in it, by which a portion of
value was subtracted, and it became nnenr
rent "WHY NOT TTNIFOBMITY?
There are many 'different kinds of notes
issued by national banks, which also assist
the counterfeiter. Why should they not
all be made alike, save as to .the
name of the bank and tbe figures showing
the denomination? Those who are old
enough to recollect beyond 1862, can re
member that every merchant, tavern-keeper
or other business man found it necessary to
subscribe for each monthly issue of some
counterfeit detector. Then every bank in
every State, issued a particular form of-
note, and money handlers' lives were a
burden; so much, so-thajt the Pennsylvania
Dutch farmer 'was rarely willing to ac
cept anything except coin, tbe weight,
feel and appearance of the genuine
being more or less, familiar to him. A
story is related of one of these, who tore
his hair in despair when Mexican coin, was
declared at a discount He thought that if
the "silver banks" were beginning to
break there was no rest for the weary any
where this side of tbe grave.
One reason assigned for tbe multiplicity
of forms in bans: notes; is the weakness of
many prominent men who wish to get their
portraits on the. money of the country. It
is said to be more general than one without
inquiry or cogitation would.suppose. It is
sdidth'at every great man has his weak
point, and this seems to be one possessed by
.many. It is conjectured that some would
pay handsomely, and thus have their fea
tures kept before the public on its money.
Added to this egotistic weakness is the
cupidity of engravers, who would have
much less employment were all the bank
notes of the country reduced to two forms,
one used by the Government and the other
by the national banks; but what
would be the loss of the statesmen and other
ambitions gentlemen and the engravers
would be
VERY OBEAX GAIN
to the public, not only in the saving of loss
resulting by being imposed on by spurious
money, but in the lessening ofeost in hunt
ing down and convicting counterfeiters and
the shovera of their product
Though the Scriptures call it filthy lucre,
and Shakespeare denominates it trash, yet
it is admitted that on a sound currency the
happiness of a nation largely depends, and,
though we may exclaim:
O, what a world of vile, Ill-favored faults
Looks handsome in three hundred pounds a
year!
Yet most of us have tbe weakness to wor
ship that world's owner, or at least to envy
him, and he knows little of the-world who
does not know that many in their hearts
will exclaim in certain emergencies:
Bell, book and candle shall not drive me back,
When gold and sliver beck me to como on.
It is suggested that a remedy might be
found, were the matter strongly pressed on
Congress. The banker who calls attention
to the evil-states that
HE SECUKKD BELIEF
from another some years ago by calling the
attention of Hon. Bussell Errett to it. "The
trouble complained of was that the Govern
ment charged the cost of, expressage on mu
tilated currency sentitforexchange, and peo
ple would continue to use it after it became
almost unrecognizable rather than pay
cost of carriage. As soon as the authorities
decided that holders could exchange cost
free they sent in all mutilated bills, and
our currency since then has been much
cleaner and more pleasantto handle.
Our gold, silver and copper coinage is
uniform, and why not make onr paper cur
rency so also? It plays a mnch more .im
portant part in commercial transactions than
does gold, and since silver certificates are is
sued they should be madeas nearly as possible
as safe for the Unsophisticated to handle as
the metal they represent, as they perform as
much service or more than it does, and are
steadily growing in favor, and will proba

half dollar out of circulation.

Some or the Latest Styles far GeHtleraeo fer

The very latest wrinkle with the swells is
to leave the lowest button upon' the single
breasted white vest unbuttoned. The edict
to this effect seems to have very generally
gone forth inasmuch as' the idea has been
adpp'tSd by the younger men of the leading
clubs who affect that it combines comfort
with an appearance of graceful neglige.
The black satin cravat is now worn upon
almost all occasions of full dress save the
most 'formal. The endeavor, by several ot
those unfortunates who liye. on the edge of
swelldom and are forever attempting to be
the first in the Geld, io push the white satin
and silkcravats as the ultra necktie of full
dress, will prove futile. There is something
about a white satin or silk' cravat which im-,
parts to the wearer a sense of conscionsness
of being dressed upjthat the true swell
always wishes to avoid.
The Prince of Wales will under no cir
cumstances tolerate the black necktie with
evening dress. He regards such an innova
tion in the natnre ot a personal affront, and
several swells, high in the ranks of the no-'
bility, who have "disregarded his wishes in
this respect, havo been stricken from the
list of guests at Marlborough House.
It is a fact, however, in spite of the con
tinned wearing of a pointed beard by His
Boyal Highness, that a smooth shaven face
is .the reigning fad in' London at present
among the fashionable men of the higher
grade.
The very latest attack of jewel mania ex
perienced among certain Englishmen of
rank is the wearing of bracelets made of
hair from the tip of an elephant's toil. This
portion of the elephantine narrative has
under the demand assumed an almost price
less value. The circlets are exquisitely
mounted in gold and silver.
Every species of aqueous costume for
men is growing gaudier, from swimming
tights to bath rones.
The tendency of 'the times for the fanciful
will be apparent in the wide, range of color
among the boating men, canoeists and
yachtsmen. Some of the combinations which
will be seen "on board, ship" this coming
season will surpass anything heretofore at
tempted by the amateur sea dogs.
The silk handkerchief will make a stronger
bid than ever before for acceptance by the
public. The patterns shown are mainly in
pongee and China silks, light in weight and
of medium size, in contradistinction to the

The width of the openings of the full
dress vests has led to' a necessity for the
making of the bosoms of the full dress
shirts considerably wider. There should be
nothing skimpy about full dress attire in
any of the details, and the shirt front is the
only portion of the shirt which should be
seen. Nothing appears so impecunious as
to show a linen shirt bosom and a good ex
panse of the cotton body of tbe shir" along

dress which gives to the ensemble a dis
tingue effect more than a well-fitting, full

GOOD FORM 0P T0-DAT,
How It Differs From Thnt of tho Fait In
Various Important Kcspects.
LondonNews.J
In a little book just published, entitled
"Good Form," the etiquette of some few
years ago is amusingly contrasted with that
of to-day, when everything is more succinct
and expeditions than it used to be.
When the ladies of John Leech's time
went to dinner parties they were shown into
bedrooms and allowed some minutes to ad
just their ringlets. Now tbey hand their
cloak to a servant and walk straight from
their carriage or cab to the presence of their
hostess. At weddings in "the 40s" each
bridemaid had a groomsman to look after
her and see that she had what she liked at
the elaborate breakfasts of the matrimonial
function of that day. Now there is only a
"best man," though how be comes by the
s uperlative adjective when he is'sole grooms
man it is difficult to say. Among other
changes of custom is that concerned with
the bridemaids dresses, which used to be given
by the bride. And our authoress might have
added that it is no longer fashion
able, as it then was, for the bride to cry.
.All weddings nowadays are dry eyed. Cry
ing has "gone out" It was tbe very height
of tbe fashion in the year.1827. When Sir
Edward Buiwer Lytton married Miss
Bosina Wheeler an eve witness of the cere
mony describes both bride and bridegroom
as being "overcome with sensibility," pale,
tottering and tearful. No one totters to the
altar now. It would not,be "good form."
But the bride must not, on the other hand,
romp up the aisle in the exultation of her
heart. The correct pace is, perhaps, best
described as resembling that ot a policeman
on his beat. It is slow and stately.
Another marked change in social customs
is mentioned in connection with the etiquette
of "small and early" parties. No longer
does a hostess ask her guests to sing or play.
This ordeal, so dreaded by the girl ot a
couple of decades ago, is no longer to be
feared. "I hope you have brought some
music. Miss Smith," was frequently the
prelude to- a distracting performance that
gave pleasure to no one, least of all to the
player. And, strange to say, now that''
music is always professional, and .generally
Worth listening to, it is difficult to persuade
people to remain silent while it is going on;
whereas, when amateurs were singing, it
would have been considered a shocking
piece of rndeness for anyone to have talked
till the- lady had finished describing how
she wore a wreath of roses, or the gentleman
had finished dilating upon his homeless,
ragged and tanned condition.
At the dinner table it was considered the
duty of the host and hostess to urge their
guests to eat. This custom in our own day
is entirely abandoned, partly owing to the
now universal style of having all dishes
handed round. The board no longer groans
as once it did, the weight? of the viands
being transferred to that chapel of ease, the
sideboard, where, in seclusion, a hireling
carves the joint and skillully dissects the
bird whose anatomy used to prove such an
intricate problem, to tbe'botbered amateur
at the end of the table. Skill in carving is
not now one of tbe polite accomplishments
wherewith it is necessary to equip a youth
for his .social -career. Till now etiquette
books have been only unintentionally amus
ing, but the present writertreats her subject
with a sense of humor that makes it easy
reading.

A WORD FOE THE B0TS
Importance of Good Business Train
inj Before Sending Them
FORTH INTO THE COLD WORED
To Hoe Their Own Bow in Competition
"With the Great Army of Hustlers.
SOUND T1EWS OF AN OLD CITIZEN
In the existing state.of society, with keen
competition in every department of busi
ness, and scores of well-equipped men
ready to snap up every vacant position that
is worth anything, it is a crime for parents
to turn their boys loose upon the world
without a trade or a profession. The gain
ing of an honorable livelihood is difficult
enough with the best preparation, but to
send a boy out from 'the paternal roof with
nothing but his bands to depend upon is to
consign him to1a life of toil, if not of crime.
There aro exceptions, but they are few.
Greatness of intellect and moral rectitude
'sufficient to overcome natural obstacles
want of education and unskilled hands
are so rare as to be scarcely recognized when
they appear. Men like Henry Clay, Abra
ham Lincoln and Henry Wilson, ail poor
boys who worked their way from the lowest
to the highest position in life, can be
counted on one's fingers without going over
them twice.
One of the oldest and most capable busi
ness men in the city ' expressed his views
yesterday'In regard to training boys for the
duties of life substantially as follows: "If
I had a boy I would no more tbink of send
ing him from home to earn his living with
out the necessary training to enable him to
make his way against the strong opposition
that he would be snre to encounter at every
step, than I would think of flying. I would
consider it a crime against society to do so.
What chance has a boy to hold his own in
the fierce struggle for existence without
skill of some kind? None at ah The most
he can hope for is a lowly station, and a
carer of drudgery at manual labor of the
roughest kind. He may start out with high
hopes and noble purposes, but .when he
com?s in contact with actual business affairs
he will soon find that they are too compli
cated And .precise for his cruder ideas and
method. The result cannot be doubtful. He
will drift from post to pillar and, finally
brinpup at the bottom ot the ladder, where
he j&ill remain. He has been tried and
may have done the best he could), but it all
comes from his parents neglecting to give
him that training of brain and hand' which
is absolutely necessary to success in'ibis
age of keen wits and sharp competition.
"Business methods have changed wonder
fully since I was a-boy. Then it was con
ducted, for the most part, in a crdde, hap
hazard sort of manner. ' Nearly every
thing was on a small scale, requiring no
particular training or experience. Some
people have the notion that it is the same
now, but thev - are sadly mistaken. Men
who were successful in business life 40 or 60
years ago could hardly fill a clerkship now.
Business has been reduced to a science, and its
manifold complications are as hard to un
derstand as any other branch of knowledge.
A good business man in these days is com
petent to fill any position, public or private.
More than one President has called men
from the store or factory to assist in carrying
On the Government; A business man is at
this moment at the head of the Postoffice
Department When a lad he entered a
store, and under-good tutelage he soon mas
tered every detail of the business. This pre
pared him to set up for himself, which he
did with wonderful success. I do not care
how or where a boy is trained, so that cor
rect business principles are instilled into
him. He may learn these at home, in a
store, factory or workshop; I do not insist
that he shall be highly educated in the
learning of the schools, but I do insist that
he shall be thoroughly grounded in some
occupation, trade or profession. A
business half learned is not learned at
all. This is the cause of so many
jack-of-all-trades which infest every com
munity. They know a little of many things
and not much of any. They have to give
way when they come In competition with
better trained hands and brains. It is im
possible for them to rise to the top. They
must remain at the bottom. They are called
upon only in cases of emergency.
"The future glory and prosperity of this
gTeat country rests with the boys. They
will, in due, time, be called upon to take the
places of tbe men who are now at the head
of affairs who are filling the offices of the
State and nation and conducting the various
business enterprises for which we are so
greatly distinguished. How important it
is, then, that these boys be brought up so as
to be competent to discharge these great
duties. There is no excuse for neglect in
this matter. The country is full of public
schools where a good education can be ob
tained without money and without price.
Every city, town and village has its factor
ies, shops and stores where actual business
can be learned by the proper application.
Therefore, I say there is no excuse for pa
rents allowing their boys to go forth into
thexwor!d and tie themselves down to a life
of drudgery, which they must do if they
have neither trained minds nor skilled
hands. The dangerous classes of society are
composed of men who, when boys, left home
without knowing, how to do something.
Having no skill at anything, they seldom
find employment, and then only at the
roughest .and least remunerative work. The
result is. that they first become dissipated
and then criminal. This picture is not over
drawn. It ii borne oat by statistics, and a
matter of almost universal experience and
observation. I have known many naturally
bright boys, who, from this cause, have
grown up to be drones in society. They
failed in competition with men better
equipped than themselves, became dis
couraged, and settled down in poverty aad
obscurity.
"These are facts which parents should
take home and' seriously ponder. If they
have boys they should see to it that they are
brought up to some honorable occupation,
and not be permitted to spend their time in
idleness, in which there is neither dignity
nor profit. It will serve as an anchor to
keep them from drifting with tbe wind, and
give them a fair start in the race of life. It
will not only be of lasting benefit to the
bovs, but will be a source of comfort to the
parents, save some of them from going down
to the grave with broken hearts, and be an 1
element of strength to the country which
can be depended upon in time of need.
Notbfng good comes :from idleness, which is
the parent of evil; bat intelligent industry
is always honored and honorable. Toslightly
paraphrase tbe sacred text: 'Train up your
boy in the way he should go, and when he
is old he will not depart from it' "
