(Trans * Staff Chrrespocdept.] j IXJUISVILLE, August 13.—It is 4 o’clock | one Monday afternoon In August. The | Falls City, a stern-wheel steamboat, has been billed to leave Louisville at 3 o’clock, but steamboats are of the gender feminine and always require more than schedule time to put on the finishing touches of getting ready. A group of negroes stands on the rock- ’ faced shore watching three of their fel- | low* who are engaged in the fascinating j game called “shooting crape.*’ I It is easy to pick out the loeer. a stocky \ young negro, black as the prince of darkj ness, bareheaded. his round, goodhumored face looking as If freshly | greased, shining In the sun. ! He is scarcely nineteen years old, five J feet four inches high, with sturdy legs and shoulders like Hercules. His trousers are cut off three or four inches below the knees, and below this, connecting with his shoes. Is a pair of bright red socks. The bell of the Falls City rings, the gangplank is swinging from the shore. "Good-by, fellows." shouts the bareheaded one, as he jumps upon the receding gangplank. *TH see you all nex’ Friday

mahnln’.”

"Good-by. Shorty,” answers the crowd from the shore as the boat swings out Into the open Ohio, turning her nose upstream | for Carrollton, sixty-thr*e mile* away, at the mouth of the Kentucky river. Shorty Is Introduced at the beginning of this expedition as conspicuous by the brilliancy of his hosiery and for other marks that remove him from mediocrity. Shorty Is a roustabout, or deckhand, in river parlance abbreviated to ’Touster.” On the boat are seventy-five or eighty passengers, all Louisville people, except four or five, and all out for a good time. There are fathers and mothers, the mothers outnumbering the fathers, Ki d they have brought their children with them, from four-year-old tots , to handsome young ladies who have just finished their education. One can but note the beauty of the voices of these Kentucky women, whether girls of sixteen or grandmothers of sixty. By a kind of lingual surgery so sweet tnat no anaesthetic is required In the operation, they extract the harsh letter “r” from nearly every word that comes over their lip* and the wonder of the Northern-bred turns to amazement at the ease with which they do it. Their speech Is like honey dripping from the comb, like the purl of murmuring waters In the cool breath of a summer night. It is a rest and a delight to the traveler who comes from the upper side of the Ohio. If one wishes to get into the good graces of a Kentuckian, whether he be a colonel, a judge or a clergyman, say something about the beauty of the women of the grand old commonwealth that rests her Read In West Virginia and lave* her feet In the Mississippi. The .prescribed rule was not followed tn this case. The writer ventured upon an innovation. He could not with truth say that Indiana’s daughters were lees fair than those of Kentucky. So he praised the voices of the women of^the State that has the Ohio river as its long and sinuous

boundary.

The colonel (he was no less) beamed with delight. "My deah sah,” he exclaimed, hi* face glowing with enthusiasm, ‘‘you ah an observah. The voices of our women ah no less a chahm than their beauty. With these two divine gifts, sah, they ah Invincible. We ah proud of ouah women. We have a bah on boahd, sah. Will you Join me, sah7”

Indianians at NarragansetL [Special to The Indian*poll* News.] PROVIDENCE. August 18.—There are a number of Indiana people spending their vacations on the shores of Rhode Island. Among these are Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, Miss Elisabeth Harrison, of Indl&naanapolis, at Narragansett pier, and Mrs. Henry Grosse, Miss Grosse, of Ft. Wayne, and R. L Pierce, wife and son, of Indianapolis. at WatchhllL Endicott Reunion. (Special to The Indianapolis News.) KOKOMO. Ind.. August IS.—The annual reunion of the Endicott family was held here yesterday. All are descendant* of John Endicott. the first Governor of Massacb usetts. About two hundred were present. Officers were chosen as follows: President. Marshall Endicott. of Anderson; vicepresident, Prof. V. F. KepUnger. of Hunter* burg; secretary, John Endicott, of Frankfort; treasurer. Pro! Carl Endercott. of Jeffersonville. a / My*terioua Shooting. [Spatial to The Indiana polls News) KOKOMO, Ind.. August 11—In the Vanderbosh saloon here last night. James Griswold, a plate glass worker, was shot and seriously Injured. Another man who disappeared, bad his hand badly powderburned. None of the witnesses will talk and the police are inveetigating the mystery.

When this conversation was referred to some time later, after the visit to the bar, a Kentucky woman, who has traveled much and uses the English language in a highly creditable way and with due respect to all Its consonants, said she believed that the daughters of Kentucky could produce equally pleasant vocal effect* without exterminating the letter "r." “And,” said this lady, "speaking of voices, you do not perhap* know that the finest voiced mocking bird Is found in these hills and cliffs that skirt the Kentucky river, richer In its notes and more varied In It* melody than the mocking bird of the South. They are somewhat different in color from the Southern mocking bird and many of them, sheltered by the cliffs, doubtless remain here through the winter.” • • • Supper is over. The cabin of the Falls City Is cleared. The orchestra, a violin, a guitar and a bass fiddle make the music. Everybody is made acquainted with everybody else and the dancing begins In the bow, under the shine of the electric lamps, half a dozen rouster* are shooting craps for nickels. Shorty is not in the game. Heedless of the shouts of the victor or of th* groans of the vanquished, stretched across two barrels of flour, his radiant socks adding color to the scene, he sleeps on. Alas! he had left his last nickel with the crap sharps on the rocky shore at Louisville. • • • Meanwhile conversation Is going on among those whose dancing days are over. They have gathered on deck In the bow of the boat and no small part of the conversation Is about ancestry. The Kentucky genealogical tree has been carefully nurtured and Ua wide-spreading branches put Plymouth rock In the deep shadow. It is not long until everyone ha* m&le the discovery that he Is second or third or fourth cousin at least to every one else. The discovery is a matter for mutual felicitation and with the music streaming out from the cabin the evening wears on pleasantly. • « • ‘Are you a widowah, salt?” asked one

man from the left a wife over there when 1 came away a day or two ago." ^’Beg I saw ahful fine woman, sah, a high-! tucky woman, and I thought likely you ah a widowah. sah." From this the conversation drifts to Kentucky horses, which everyone present admits are the finest tn the world. The Indiana man modestly interposes that the Hoosier State has some fin* stretches of blue grass and says that Consul-General Gowdy, at Parts, Franca, has created much admiration and some envy through two horses sent to him from Rush county, Ind., which he drives in the Bed* tie Boulogne. From this the conversation turns to Kkoq o) Jireup pun X^siqjA Ajpniaevi "Some people," said the man who got on at Razor Ferry, “nevah give a hog a chance. All a hog need* to bettah his condition is oppabtunity. That’s all, sah. Last season two fine hogs weh kept on this boat and fed on the refuse of the cabin. They had the range of the lowah paht of the boat, and came to be exceedingly intelligent. Hosts taken on a* freight re van got any recognition from these hogs. They seemed to consldah themselves In an entlahly different scale socially, "One day one of these summah boabdahs. grown cablese by famlllahity with the rivah. fell ovahbobd. ’Save that hog!’ yelled the mate. Fo’ roostahs weh in the watah In no time. "It was a moment of great excitement, fo’ it was a valuable animal. It was rescoed, much to ouah relief.

In the early morning there 1* frequently a thick fog in the river, so thick that even the two strong electric searchlights carried by the Falls City fail to penetrate It. The boat, noting slowly through the fog about sunrise, strikes a houseboat, of which there are many In the river. There is a shrill scream as a woman with an Infant In her arms jumps ashore from the houseboat on the side of a thickly wooded hill. A moment later the man of the boat throws a feather bed ashore.

As one of the boatmen expresses It, "She didn’t have on enough to stuff a crutch.” "No," said another, “not enough to wad a single-barreled shotgun." Meanwhile the houseboat has come farther Into the current, where, taken by an eddy, It Is whirling round and round. The mate and half a dosen rousters run over the side of the little boat and soon stop its erratic movements by fastening It to the shore. “What’s the damage?" asks the captain. . "Thirty cents,” say* the mate. W* broke an oar for him. There's not a tablespoonful of water tn his boat.” ‘•There’s a disappointed man,’ said the captain. "That fellow wanted us to sink him so that he could recover from the company three or four time* the value of his boat."

• • •

As the fog. like a curtain, lift* from the hills an ever-changing panorama spreads before the eyes. In the entire course of the river from Carrollton to Valley View, the present head of steamboat navigation, there is nowhere a straight half rail* stretch of stream. The river, winding about the bases of th* hills, gives a new and different view every moment. One is particularly struck by the scarcity of houses and farm buildings upon the stream. At long distances between, stuck to the sides of the hills, are the ramshackle shanties of the hill people, and here and there, far up on the side of a hill, and bowered by small trees and bushes. Is seen a houseboat, lodged there during high water, to remain until the next flood, when the occupants—and these boats seemed to swarm with children—win move on. It is & noticeable fact that all these people, old and young, “ 1J ciWE8 DENNIS. MEDICINE DROPPER.

SENSATION AT SARATOGA RACE TRACK AND HOTELS.

THREE WELL MATCHED BAYS

Seated in High Mail Phaeton She Handiee the Reine Like a Veteran.

SARATOGA, August IS.—The sensation at the Saratoga race track and In the hotels Is a tall, graceful, beautiful woman of thirty-flre, who burst upon this rapid social cosmopelto late last week, and who has been the chief and envied object of conversation among the grande dame* ever since. To-day she Is Identified. The woman had secured In advance a cottage fronting on the lawn of the chief hotel. She arrived unannounced, bringing with her a retinue of servantn Meals were served In her suite of apartments. Evidently possessing cultivated musical tastes, she attended the evening concert* at which a distinguished operatic composer leads the band. On one occasion she dined in the pagoda on the lawn, where •he could enjoy the music while she ate a bird and sipped the wine. Spectacular as she was herself, universal Interest was Ant excited by h*r turnout. on Saturday. It was the finest rig seen on the Broadway concourse In many year*. Leaving the private stables where she went to enter the carriage, the graceful woman drove to the top of the hill near the old Mount MacGregor railroad, and there headed her team down Broadway. Three Perfectly Matched Baye. The turnout consisted of three perfectly matched bays, driven abreast like the horses in a Roman chariot. The woman sat alone tn the high mall phaeton of baby blue color, with a gillie In the spider behind her. An exquisite costume of steel gray, slashed with black, graced her slender form, and she wore a ravishing picture hat. all black, that swayed tn the wind as she sped down the foliage-arched thoroughfare. The native* marveled at the peculiarity of the outfit. They had observed horses driven tandem; four-tn-hands were even more familiar to the eyes, but never outside of "the greatest show on earth" had they seen a woman driving a team of three abreast. The extreme beauty and lightness of the carriage and the spirited character of the animus only emphasised the perfect horeewomanshtp of the driver. It was the crowded hour In Broadway. The tread of pleasure trafflo was toward the polo field, where Lakewood was lo play Dedham. George Gould’s sturdy automobile was snorting down th* hill, and the arrivals of a train just In from New York were occasioning great racket on the sidewalk near the United Statee Hotel. „ a Through all this noise and confusion the woman guided her splendid horses with the hand of a trained whip. The animals going at a stiff trot passed the United States and continued down the slope. Saluted the Lorlliard Colors. Attracted by the sight of the approaching team, the hotel guests gathered at tho front of the ptassa, the more closely to observe the horses and their mistress. Suddenly two members of the group of thoroughbred owners — thoroughbreds themselves—sprang to their feet and lifted their hat# most reverently. They saluted ths Lorlliard colors. Then they sat down tn silence, recalling how often they had seen the cherry and black first under the wire at all the tracks of this country and on Epson Downs. The man In the "spider" wore a cherry-hued livery, with black collar and cuffs. He lacked only the black cap and gold tassel to complete the colors of the Rancocas stable. The superb horsewoman waa recognised as Mrs. lAXy Barnes Allien, formerly Miss Barnes, of Brooklyn, whose history has In recent years been linked with that of the late Pierre Lorlliard.
