The Most Popular in America and England Recommended Stuart/s

____?.._

No jockey has ever appealed so strongly

to public favor as Tod Sloan. He has achieved more than his most noted predecessors ever attempted and stands in a class by himself.

Not satisfied with his successes in his

na.tive country, he went to England and now his fame as a. successful horseman is on the tip of every tongue not only in this country and England, but in every section of the globe where racing has found favor.

When Tod first went to England his te-

merity was openly laughed at, but the little American played Skittles with his English

The great jockey was in such demand

The Century Question.

Sm,-Referring to your article in reply

to mine, “In which ' century are we liv- ing T’ I beg to make a brief reply. The question has teen befogged by the use of illustrations not appropriate to the sub- ject. The one that I used is appropriate because it deals with the methods of measuring time among all civilized na-

tions. ~° ~' _.

The first hour of the day is between

midnight and the moment when the hour hand reaches I. 'I`he same obtains with the calendar clock to which you refer. Divested of all confusing words about the minutes and hours, and speaking of days only, is it not plain that the first day of the month is passing while the diurnal I hand is moving from 31 to 1, and when thel is reached that the first day of the month is done i Apply the same reason- ing to the first year of the H1-st century. ‘ It began at the naught point and when its 365 days had passed away the first year of the frst century had closed. Continuing on through the century in the same way we find that when we reach the -figure in- dicating any year that that year is com- pleted and we have left it `behind ns. Therefore when we reached the 100 the

century _was completed. -

This seems to me to be plain common

sense reasoning,ha.ving nothing ingenious

or fallacious about it.

Yours truly,

_LIVES LIKE A LORD. -

City Pays Fifty (Beats Bach for J. J ' iier|ieri’s Meals.

J. J. Herbert, the ex-teller of the Ville

Marie Bank, now in custody of Chief Car- . penter, is living well at the city’s expense. ` Although Mr. Herbert admits having robbed the’bank and is lying under a crim- inal charge, he is being treated like a lord.

He is not an ordinary prisoner, of

course, having' gotten away with enough money that didn’t belong to him to show that he deserves consideration. So he is “confined” in Mr. Carpenters oflice, where he receives any friends who wish to see him. Occasionally he takes a stroll out with a detective, who if reports are true, has an odd idea of his duty on these trips. i Perhaps the city taxpayers would not

object very strongly to all this if in the de- sire to treat Herbert handsomely the city’s money was not being spent quite so freely. He is being allowed no less than Hfty-cent meals. They are nicely gotten up at Riendeau’s Hotel and carried gvei; to him. For other prisoners provided for by the city twenty cents a day of three meals is considered enough to spend on them.

Rich and Poor.

It is reported that William K. Vander-

bilt, Jr., has ordered for his wife the big- gest diamond ornament ever made, yet thereis probably no reason why the average man should envythe husband who can make' such gifts. It may almost be laid downas an axiom that one married 'man is as rich as any other married man. This is a reversible axiom, meaningin one case that a good wife is a ma.n`s best fortune, and in the other that the extent ofa husband’s wealth is taken into account by his wife,whenever be buys her apresent. » The laboring man who e_ai:-ns a' dollar a d ay can purchase gauds to please his wife just as easy as the Duke can please the Duchess with gifts. A pair nf jet earrings or arhine stone brooch will answer in one case, while in another nothing will answer that is not the “biggest ever made," or the finest in the whole social circle, Between the paying power of the two men there is no greater difference than there is between the size of the _ex- pectations entertained by the two women. With both it is the`s_§.me; they appreciate _ tothe full only when they ‘know that more would have qbsen' impossible. ~A man’s generosities are judged not by their size, but by their relatives size to what people consider to he his real giftf bearing, comfort-providing capacity.
