A LESSON FROM A LADY.
An my pet in dreHses trailing, Tightly clingir.K' to tbe railing Of the stairs, descends she cries, "I'm a lady—largest size." Bonnet tied beneath her curls, Happietft of happr girls. But on the lowest step she slips. Headlong to the fluor she trips.
Pinery i« all unhu'eded. Tears nrv flowing unimpeded. To my lap she straight way flies, Thfrt! to hide her tear stained eyes. "You're a lady: mustn't cry." Answer comes with nob and sigh AH I wn«Joth a tangled curl, "No: I'm just your little girL"

A GJ'iEAT DISCOVERY
"Wonted—A gentloman possessing valuable secret desires to meet party of means possessing some astronomical knowledge and willing to spend $5,000 in carrying out new and valuable experiment. Address Murray, care Clark & Co., bankers, from 9 n. in. to 12 m."
As I ate my breakfast I found I was mentally comparing myself with the qualifications in The Times, and with the gratifying result that I found I filled the description.
Gratifying!' Yes, very. Here I was, an even 30 year* old, with an abundance of wo/ilth und a direful dearth of means of amusement. I)o you wonder, then, that this f-tnirigf advertisement should have a fascination for me?
AH I wended my way to tho office of Clark & C. thoughts of possible gold bricks and buncombe games flitted idly through my head, but I was endowed with a liberal supply of egotism, and I hardly gave them consideration.
As I Inquired of a clerk at Clark & Co.'s for Murray I fancied I detected a fleeting smile of curiosity cross his face, but I was quietly ushered into an inner office, where I found myself confronted by a finely built young man of aliout 85, who cordially extended his hand as ho road my card.
Mr. Hoffman, I am pleased to moetyou, for I have known you long by reputation. Be seated. My name is Murray, Mr. Hoffman— Cordon Murray and I presume you desired to see me rogarding my advertisement in The Timos?"
I assented. "I thought as much. But first, Mr. HofTman, 1 presume you are willing to sink $6,000 in an experiment that will not yield /my cash dividends? Good I Mr. Hoffman, before we proceed further I must enjoin on you a promlsoof the strictest eonfldonce In case you decldo against me. If you decide fur mo my secret bo oomcs yours, and your discretion must be your dictator." "Mr. Murray, you havo my word of honor as a gentleman," I replied. "Thank you, Mr. HofTman. I am physician of moderate practice and more moderate income and with a strong inclination for tho study of astronomy and ohonilstry. In my study of tho former I havo had a great and pervading dosiro to investigate the sun, and toward that end all my energies have been directed, with tho result that I havo discovered a chomloal preparation which, inserted between tho glasses of nil ordinary astronomical telesoopo, will Increase its power more than ten Minos and at the MI mo tlmo will so neutralize tho brilliancy of tho sun's rays as to make It perfectly easy to search tho surface of the planet. "Now, Mr. HofTman, this appears as a wild and fantastical assertion, but I know this from experience with a small hand telescope, and I am only prevented from putting my theory moro strongly to the tost by lack of funds to obtain such an Instrument as wish, and It is for this I doBiro to meet a man willing to fund the experiment."
For several minutes after Dr. Murray ceased speaking I sat astounded at the boldness of the assertion and yet convinced that tfo man before me spoko tho truth.
I looked again, rather anxiously, I will admit, at the dark, thoughtful faco to seo if I could detect, any signs of insanity. Far from It. Never was there a moro sane looking individntil. Absurd as tliu Idea np-
rMired,
yet it fascinated me, and tho more thought the more enthusiastic I boon I no. "Well, Mr. HofTman, do you consider me a fool or a crank or lx)th?"
I started at the words, to find I)r. Murray gazing at me with a quiet look of amusement in his eyes. "Neither, doctor, neither. But I presume yen an- prepared to furnish mo some proof of your sincerity?" I queried. "Certainly, sir. Would Mr. Clark of this firm sutlice?" "His word would bo satisfactory." I re plied "Then. Mr. HofTman. I lieg to refer you to him And. pardon me, but when may I expect an answer* I should desire to nettle the matter ill an early date, so that the appar.it u« c.mld bo ready by the i?V!d of on which dav. you know, the sun makes its nearest approach to tho earth.' "You may ha\e mv answer in ten minutes if Mr Chirk is in." 1 replied. "Hoi--at prv-ent in his private office Allow me in show you the way Mr Clark, may I present Mr HotTnian, who desire- que-! Ion vou regarding myself? Mr. He-fTman. I will await you in the outer office. And Dr Murray silently left me with Mr Clark. "Mr. I'Urk." 1 heiran. "hem—er—or— you—er—undoubtt div know something of tho nature of mv business with I)r. Murray." "I do. Mr. HofTman." "Do you consider Dr, Murray honest in hi* character and convictions?" I asked. "Mr. HofTman. 1 have known Dr. Murray nil his life, and I consider him a man above htvtrd in his charoctvt and views." "Thank you, Mr Chuk. I believe that Is all 1 care to know And I bow**d myself from the offic«\ to find myself face to face with Dr Murray, who was nervously pacing the outer office As I approached be gami anxiously into my face. "Dr. Murray," I aid. "while your •chenio appear# very chimerical, yel I am disposed to believe in it. What do you propose to do?" "To obtain a* large trleorope as practical and have the necessary changes made In it, then take to and set It up mtdy for the he answered. "Can such an Instrument as you desire be obtained soon enough?'" I asked. "I know of an excellent Instrument that can be purchased for #S.ooo. and the neoss•nrj change* ran tie made in about a week." "Then, doctor, I am pr j«aml to hack the enterprise. I wlU arrang© with my banker*. Hicks, Baker & Co.. to booor
$6,000,
your draft .* toe extent of
will see TOD tomorrow. Where" "At my office, if you please, 1786 Lexington avenue." "Good day, doctor." And I found myself in the street, wondering whether I was a chump, an ass, or both.
The time passed rapidly until the 92d, and it seetned once as though our instrument would not be placed at on the desired day, so many unforeseen difficulties arose to delay us.
But Dr. Murray was as energetic as be was enthusiastic, and the night of the 21st found us installed on the top floor of the Hotel Irving and the instrument placed in a temporary observatory erected on the roof.
Dr. Murray and I bad small interest in anything else. We were thinking with all our energies of the experiment tomorrow and its result. What would it be?
But tomorrow became today, and slowly the forenoon dragged itself through until it lacked but 15 minutes of the appointed time to begin oar experiment. And what would we learn if Murray's discovery were right?
What wonders would that great golden orb yield to our inquisitive eyes? Somehow I felt strangely oppressed as I paced up and down the ball outside our rooms, as w»fh some impending evil, and to quiet my nerves I lighted another cigar. As I did so Murray came up to me, and I was startled to note how strangely pale he was, but before I could speak he stopped me with a gesture. "Hoffman," he said, "we are all ready now to put my discovery to the test. What it will prove I cannot say, but I feel that something strange and terrible is about to happen. I don't doubt that the telesoope will work, that my discovery will prove successful, but I am certain that what it will roveal will be far beyond our imagination." "But, doctor, you cer"— I interrupted. "No, no, HofTman, let us not talk about it. Lot us go and see. But first I promised that on tho day we made this experiment I would reveal the formula of my discovery, and I will do so now." "Never mind that now, doc. Wait till we see if it works. Let us go up to the observatory," and I led the way up the stairs, Murray quickly following.
As we stepped on the roof I glanced at my watch. It lacked but five minutes, and I strolled over to the telescope and began carefully examining its adjustments for at least tho hundredth time.
As I did so I was startled by the loud clang of the fire alarm and cries of "Fire! Firol" In the street below.
I turned toward Murray, but he was hurrying toward tho edge of the roof facing tho street, and I started to follow, only to bo stopped before I could take half a dozen steps by Murray, who iad been leaning over the edge of the roo^and now turned to me with blanched face and exclaimed "Good heavens, Hoffman, it is the hotel, and it is one mass of flames."
Ho turned again to the street, and as he did so a cry of horror escaped my lips, for in his excitement be leaned farther out than he thought, und as I made a wild, foolhardy reach for him he plunged headlong into the streot below.
I leaned, horror struck, over the roof and guzed into the street, only to be confronted by a seething mass of flames and groat, eddying olouds of smoke, which seomed to pour from every window in the building, while from the opposite side of tho street I could see men exoitedly running to a spot directly beneath where I stood.
Then tho peril of my position burst moro fully upon me and I ran for the stairway.
As I passed the telescope an uncontrollable desire to take one look at the sun, now almost overhead, possessed me, and I turned back.
It was but the work of an instant to adjust tho lenses and turn the instrument on that groat golden orb. Then I pressed my eye to the tube, only to pinch myself to make sure I was awake.
At once nil thought of flro and the awful fate of Murray left my mind. I could see nothing, know nothltag but the soene spread before my eye.
Tho scone on the glass seemed divided Into two parts, one dark, cold and forbidding, the other bright, sparkling, blinding. As my oyo became moro accustomed to the glass 1 could nee that the two parts of tho picture were divided by a broad stream of water that flowed with a ewift, raging current, and tho scene on the right, which had appeared to glow with the brilliance of raging flnmos, was a city of magnificent size surrounded by a gigantic wall, and the material of which the wall and buildings were constructed glowed with a phosphorescent quality equal to millions of incandescent lamps.
Tho scene on tho left was broad and bare, only wide, rough plains of jagged, cumbersome rooks and dark, deep fissures, balked with mighty mountain peaks, standing brown and ugly in the dear atmosphere.
As I studied the surfaoe more closely I discovered an objoot moving rapidly toward the river.
Eagerly, feverishly, I screwed up the adjustments until the figure of a man stood out plainly.
Carefully I examined him, then rubbed my forehead In bewilderment. Was I era zed Had I gone stark mad? Horrors! I sprang from the instrument in terror and fell unconscious to the floor.
They tell me I lay in a wild delirium of brain fever for weeks, but all I know is that when I came to myself I was in the hospital, too weak almost to speck, with a gentle, white capped nurse at toy aide.
I tried to speak, but she stopped me with a gesture, and I dropped off to sleep. When I awoke again, I asked: "Tho hotel? Murray"— "There, be quiet, Mr. HofTman do not excite yourself. The hotel was entirely destroyed, and you were saved by a miracle almost." the nurse answered. "But Murray? He—be—is dead?" 11 stammered.
The nurse nodded bar bead In amenfc. For weeks after I lay weakly struggling between life and death, but I at last began to rally, and then I asked bow I had been saved and to see my preserver.
He was a strapping young man of 80, who seemed ashamed of having been guilty of a heroic deed.
When I asked about the telesoope, he looked surprised and answered: "Why, you see, that is what knocked yon silly, sir. Just as I stepped on the roof you gave a cry and jumped from yoor •sat by the teleeoope and heaved over on the roof with the old concern on top of you."
For a minute I thought, then asked: "You say I gave a cry, Gibbons? Did I My anything you ooold hear?" "Sure. sir. I beard it alL Your faoe was as white as a ghost and you gasped out* "My God, it's doc!"--Tray Times.

WEARING SERGE IN SUMMER AND .. CANVAS IN AUTUMN.
fmh Evidence That Women Are Contradictory Creatures—Old Fabrics In New Colors—Stylish Tea Gowns—New
Designs In Brooches and Earring*.
[Special Correspondence.]
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—It is a queer idea, but it is a fact that women have worn cheviot, serge and other woolen stuffs daring the summer—not always, but often, and now are arranging to wear canvas during the falL Mayhap they will wear it in the winter, too, for women are contradictory creatures. These canvas gowns will be of the

checked variety and be made in a way to suggest woolen and shepherd checks. Some are in dark blue and white, with a lining of drab or gray, which makes an effective ground. Some of the open canvas weaves are illuminated and others resemble cheviots in their softest mixed tints. Some look like coarse homespuns at a distance, and it is only on close approach that one sees the real beauty of the weave. Generally it is quite the other way, the imitation being handsomer at a distance, while a close examination shows the coarseness.
There is not very much new in the line of fabrics this week. The old ones appear in new colors. Foulards in deep red, with polka spots varying in size from a pinhead to a quarter of a dollar, in black or white, are qnite a vogue. Lawns and some of the light foulards, and even the taffetas and lonisines, are in these iiery reds, and also a new shade called watermelon. This is very delioate and pretty. Some of the silks have a white or ivory ground with mignonette green, old rose, purple or black dots, the most of them being at least as large as a dime. These make stylish tea gowns and also full dresses.
Speaking of tea gowns wcalls two that were put on private view today. They were both imported and models from which many others will be developed. One of them was a soft India silk in a quaint and intricate design of terra cotta and rush green. The front breadth was gathered at the throat and fell in loose folds to the feet. The rest of the skirt was gathered, and in the back the fullness was brought into a close bunch, shirred two or three times. There was a tiny bit of a bnstle to hold this shirring in place. Over the skirt was a sort of tunio of very pale, frosty green grosgriin silk. This was open in the back, a all around it was a deep lace flounce, falling in cascade folds from the neck. The collar was of the bat wing variety, with a little lace on the inside. The sleeves bad puffs of the grosgrain at the top. The rest was shirred in xtousquetaire style and had a frill of very narrow lace along the inner seam. The tunic is very often seen on the gowns for fall, and those for winter will also doubtless show them. Tho plan seems to be to have an overgarment cut so that two portions of it hang flat down the skirt. In some oases

they cover the front and back and are open at the sides. In others they cover the sides an'1 are open in front and at the back. The tunic is the forerunner of the looped polonaise and dolly varden.
Another handsome tea gown was made of striped silk in a blue bourette stripe on a white ground. The front was laid in deep folds from the neck down, but it was held in the front in blouse form by a ribbon in pale bine. The track was in a watteau plait and had a short train. There were belt lapels of fine white embroidery, and down the front of the waist was a very dreesy arrangement made of two pointed ribbons edged with the embroidery. The sleeves were puffed and bad caps of laoe at the top ar»d ruffles at the wrist Tea gowns wpuld look better with loose and flowing sleeves, bnt just now fashion is in favor of close one*.
One of the prettiest parts of this gown was the back. The little jacket effect of laoe extended over the shoulders, and the embroidery fell over the wattean plait. Tbe collar was of the tudor shape, and had lace around it and a full bow at the back of the same bine ribbon. The belt started from under the plait. This all made tbe back of the gown nearly as ornate as tbe front, something rarely seen.
A very handsome afternoon home gown was made of anal taffeta. It It
wonderful bow all the tints of that jewel can be wrought into dress mate* rial. The surface color is milky blue, az»i the shades it gives in different lights are those of the opal. This had the skirt trimmed with an inch wide ruffle of absinth colored silk muslin all around the bottom and up the four front seams to tbe waist. The blouse was made entirely of tbe absinth colored mull in longitudinal sbirrings, with a ruffle at the front. The sleeves had puffs ol the silk and ruffles of tbe mull. The lower part of tbe sleeves was shirred on, with a narrow ruffle on the inner seam. The belt and stock were of changeable blue and orange taffeta. 1 thiuk there will be many pieces of changeable stuffs shown late this season, especially in twills and ribbed goods.
The newest designs in brooches and earrings are so absurdly old fashioned that we smile at them while we buy them. Few are jeweled.

THE OLDEST SOLDIER.
Lieutenant Michael Moore's Name Has Been On the Army Register 85 Years. [Spe lal Correspondence.]
BROOKLYN, Aug. 2.—The name of Michael Mcare, who lives at 20 Seventh avenue, this city, has been on the United States army register 85 years. He is now retired of course, but no other mau now living has been carried on the rolls for so many years, and in all probability no other American has actually participated in so many wars as he. He was born in the city of New York on July 4, 1800, and took his military tendencies from bis father, Jacob Moore, vho was a soldier in tbe Revolution.
Michael Moore's first service was in the last war with Gugland. In April, 1812, he enlisted as a drummer boy in the regiment commanded by Colonel Peter B. Schuyler. Tbe following winter, as a member of the regiment, he took part in the campaign on the Canada frontier, and went down the St. Lawrence when the attack on Montreal was made. His reminiscences of the battles of Queenstown, Honey Creek and Fort George are still vivid. During the last named battle he received a wound on the left arm which still shows a scar. After the war was over he went to Detroit, Ihen a far western post, and when his time expired in 1817 he re-en-listed at once. After that he was stationed for a long time at Sault Ste. Marie. In 1826 he participated in the Lake Superior expedition under Governor Cass, which terminated in the signing of a treaty with the Indians.
He was also in the Black Hawk war and the Seminole war in Florida. In 1840 he received an honorable discharge, bnt immediately re-entered tho service, being sent to Bedloe's island recruiting station. From that time on till 1869 he served as a recruiting officer, many thousands of volunteers for the Union army entering the service through his offices. In January he was commissioned a second lieutenant in the Ninth United States infantry, having won tbe shoulder straps that so seldom come to the private by faithful and honorable service of the sort that had been assigned to him. The next year, being 70, he was placed on the retired list by rea son of "disabilityfrom old age." Since then he has lived with his aged wife and umarried children here in Brooklyn.
Despite his advanced age, Lieutenant Moore takes a lively interest in current events, and he hopes at least to round out the century. G. W. KENTON.
