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,
H. H. Osooon.

_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
