I think that the New Yorker's shave Is symptomatic of the whole rate of life In New York. It is, if you will, luxurious, but you have to allow twenty minutes out of your day for it. In London I never allow more than five minutes. Here I lie down in a chair and say: "I'm in a hurry. Be as quick as you can, please." My barber surveys me with no look of Interest and goes to talk for five minutes to the lady manicurist. When he returns I say from my recumbent position, "I'm in a great hurry." He says, "Yep?" interrogatorily as if I had given him a piece of quite uninteresting and dispassionate Information. He goes to a mirror and for some moments examines a wart upon his cheek. Eventually he shaves me. Atlantic. True Eloquence. True eloquence,' indeed, does not consist In speech. It cannot be brought from far. Labor and learning may toil for It, but they will toil in vain.

He was a perfect master of six languages. He was a zoologist and an ornithologist, understanding the structure and habits of animals and birds. He was the author of a book on falconry. He understood medicine, and was a practical surgeon. Ha was a liberal patron of learning, and founded the University of NaplesIn addition to all this he possessed rare literary taste, and his culture and refinement mark him an exception among kings. iCepyrigbt. lSli. by Joaepa B.

The Speed Mania Again.

The discussion of the accident which happened in , connection with the motor ire truck affords such unlimited opportunities for obvious moralizing that we suppose council will at least devote an hour to It this evening. If at some point in the debate some worthy does not get rid of this sage remark, namely, "If the driver had not run so fast the accident would not have happened" we shall be surprised. We shall not be surprised if the debate goes to the lengths: "If they hadn't taken the fire truck out he wouldn't have run into etc., etc., etc." As the city officials have all had ample opportunity to know all about the motor truck this debate will be particularly timely and to the point. Most every city official has had a ride on the battering ram they have been as pleased with it as boys with a new red wagon. We are sorry their toy is broken. It would be purely ludicrous if the terrible consequences did not remove it almost to the realm of criminality through ignorance or carelessness. As the officials are all familiar with the mechanism from their careful inspection of the truck as a demonstration has been given of the truth of the Earlham professor's statement that the battering ram would produce a ramming power of 90,000. pounds to the inch perhaps it will simplify the whole question. It will give ample room for the question as to how the driver, a supposedly competent and careful person committed involuntary manslaughter. We are informed that the following conversation took place on May 13 or 14 in front of the city building between the mayor and the driver: W. W. Z. "You haven't run very fast." Driver. "I can run the truck just as fast as you want me too." W. W. Z. "That's what we want. We give you the right to run it as fast as you can. We want to get to fires and get to them quick. That's the reason we bought the truck, and we want you to travel fast." Driver. "I'll show you some speed then." Our witness is credible and trustworthy and the accompanying circumstances such as the trial trips around the city make it one of truth if not of stenographic fact. The case outside of the actual responsibility of others than the driver needs as much discussion as the case .of the New York contractor who put a stick of dynamite in his hip pocket and then sat down on it.

It does not require a very discriminating palate to detect an old egg from a new one, says a correspondent of the New York Sun. The former has a musty flavor that the latter never has, and the mustiness may range from a slight taint to a very pronounced one. It is always noticeable in storage eggs. If any one wishes to verify the judgment of his palate, the following tests may be used: 1. It is almost Impossible to peel the shell from a fresh hard boiled egg without having some of the white come away with It 2. A stale egg cannot be beaten to a froth. 3. When a fresh egg is broken into a dish the yolk stands up and the white does not spread, whereas in a stale egg the yolk lies flat and the white seems watery. 4. The shell of an egg after a certain length of time loses its chalky appearance and becomes shiny. 5. The air space In the large end of a newly laid egg is about half an Inch In diameter, and as the egg ages this space grows larger. In storage eggs it sometimes extends to onefourth the length. An expert can very closely approximate the age of an egg by examining this space. This Is known as candling and is done by holding the egg in a beam of light A simpler test Is to hard boll the egg and notice the relative size of the apace. An Opportunity Lost.

When the family who admltt: rl that they were moving because the tenants at the . old address made their lives miserable confided to the renting agent that they had one peculiarity which they wished him not to mention to their neighbors in his building the agent got uneasy and executed a mental quickstep trying to devise some way to break the lease. But aloud he said very courteously: "I shall be glad to oblige you If 1 can. What is it you wish me to keep a secret?" "The fact that" we pay our rent promptly on the 1st of every month," said the head of the family. "That was something that nobody else in the other house did, and the agent as an incentive to quick action on their part published the news of our promptness. The only action it stirred them into was persecution of us. and they carried that to such extremes that we had to move. If you will kindly refrain from using us as a club to whack your delinquents into obedience we will appreciate it" The agent resolved not to cancel the lease, but at the same time he relinquished a hastily conceived plan for procuring prompt remittances.

TOE MACKAY STATUE. Of all the statues I have seen la this country two have always gripped me the statue of Abraham Lincoln in Lincoln park, Chicago, and that of the elder Mackay at the University of Nevada. Almost every one has seen the Lincoln statue or a picture of it It strikes you as being a replica of the real Lincoln. The other was erected by Clarence H. Mackay as a tribute to his father, the founder of the Mackay fortune. There it stands, the semblance of a young man of sturdy bearing. He wears a flannel shirt, which is open at the neck. Corduroy trousers are stuff-; ed Into cowhide boots. On the head is a slouch hat. A miner's pick is clinched In the right hand. That is the real Mackay. Afterward he became a millionaire, and the statue would have shown a smooth groomed, conventional figure in frock coat and a high hat. But Mackay was a man before he was a millionaire. And the rugged figure of the miner stands an abiding index of the dignity of labor. The mudsills of our republic were laid by men of toll. They laboriously blazed the way to our present day prosperity. And of these heroes of the early faith was the bronzed miner, who, like Moses, struck the flinty rock and forced the flow of golden waters. We must honor these men. Let us have a care lest in our day of prosperous pride we shall come to look with condescension upon the man who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow and the labor of his hands. Therefore the value of reminders like this statue of the man of the pick and the sluicing cradle. We must Impress the truth that the man upon whose garments there is the stain of the soil, caught In honest effort of daily toil, wears a uniform as patriotic as the uniform of the harnessed soldier; that the scars upon the hands of labor are as honorable as the ( scars received in battle. Hence the significance of the Lin-' coin and the Mackay statues. They are statues of men, not as they were finally made, but as In the making. Let our new American art fashion the memorials of our great men as men who labored at a task Lest we forget whence we sprung.

Attired for the most part in old-fashion ed costumes recalling the days when Mistress Dolly Madison reigned in the White House as the first lidy of the land, more than 40 prominent Democratic women gathered at the New Willard Hotel this mornmr for the "Dolly Madison breakfast' this being the birthday of the wife of the fourth president of the United States and therefore a most fitting date for a "Democratic harmony" repast. Probably never before has such a representative gathering of Democratic women been seen, for each of the presidential possibilities was represented by his wife and a number of the women representing the iast glories of the party were also oa band. Conspicuous among th-3 latter was Mrs. Mary Cutts Craig, seventy-e'ght years of age, grand-niece of Dolly Madison herself and Mies Fanny Virginia Burke, one of the lineal descendants of Thomas Jefferson and related to the Tyler, Monroe, Van Buren ai.d Jackson families. Both of those Indies were dressed, as were a large number of the other guests In the costvme prevalent at the time James Madison was in the White House and both occupied seats at the descendants table where were placed only those whose fore fathers were identified with the former history of Democracy.
