BEAUTY AND THE BEAU.
y Gen-
fine Show of Gallantry Rebuked b nine Courtesy.
The car was crowded. It happened that only men were standing, with th- tion of a colored woman, in the middle of the car. But at a corper a Wo1ian dressed in the top of the mode goton. She stood next the door, and plainly here was a chance for some masculine person to be gallant. An old beau, who was seated near the center, was obviously fascinated by the appearance of this beauteous female and bobbed his bead to catch her eye. Finally succeeding he arose, beckoned to her and murmured:
‘*Won’t you take my seat, madam?”’
The colored woman, standin: directly in front of him, heard this and, turning, thanked him gratefully as she made a movement toward the vacant space. With indignation wrinkling his tinted nose and spoiling for a moment the gracious air which he had assumed, he pushed her back, with both hands at her clbows, as be exclaimed:
“Oh, no; not for you, ma’am!”’
His adjustment of expression was rapid as he turned once more to her of the hand- some face and fashionable clothes and | made way. Then, with a smile at his | neighbors which plainly said, ‘‘Didn’t I | manage that well?’’ he leaned comfortably on his stick.
The favored one had not noticed the lit-
excep- i
benefit, but a young girl who sat in the next seat was an observer and saw the warm red deeply flush under the black
tears come in the dark eyes. She saw the mouth quivering, and her own eyes snapped. With a glance at ‘this complacency,’ un- mistakably expressive of her scorn and in- dignation, she quickly rose, touched the woman on the arm and gently said:
“Take my seat. I’m getting out at the next corner,”’
Then, flashing a look at the man, under which his expression of self congratulatien rapidly changed to something near to sheepishness, she passed out of the car, and more than one man there would have bet that she had not intended to get off at that corner.—New York Sun.
EARLY WHALE FISHERY.
It Was Probably First Followed by the Biscayans or Norwegians.
As to who among northern nations may justly claim the honor of first daring to attack the mijghty whale there is some lit- tie deubt. But the balance of probability inclines to the Biscayans or Norvregians, We have a reasonably definite account in Orosius of bay whaling having been car- ried on from the North cape along the shores of the White sea in the ninth cen- tury. Langebek, a Danish writer, asserts } ositively that the Norwegians wero the } loneers of whale hunting on the coasts of their own country about the year 870. But there are many references to whale fishing in the chronicles of that period. The “Translation et les Miracles de St. Vaast’’ tells of a donation by William the Conqueror of a tithe of whales caught at Dives to the Convent of the Holy Trinity at Caon. A bull of Pope Eugene III gives a tithe of the tongues of whales caught at Merri to the church at Coutances. These two will probably suflice as a sample of the references to the cetacea in those early times. Historians, however, are agreed that the Basques and Biscayans first yen- tured far to sea from their own shores and so became the originators of the whale fishery proper.
About 1575a combined fleet of Biscayan and Iceland vessels, numbering 50 or 60 sail, commencéd whaling upon the coasts of Newfoundland, Iceland and southern Greenland. In 1594 the English appear to have awakened to the prospect of profit frem the whale fishery, for we read that several ships were fitted out in that year at Bristol for a whaling vyoyage to Cape Breton. One of them, the Grace of Bris- tel, found between 700 and 800 blades or laminw of whalebone on the shores of St. George’s bay, where two large Biscayan ships had been wrecked three years before. This seems to have been the first instance of the importation of whalebone into Eng- land.—London Spectator.
Where All Kissed Their Escorts.
The diversions of New Yorkers of the last century were very much milder than are those of the present day. ‘‘In winter a century ago,’’ Mrs. Burton Harrison writes in The Ladies’ Home Journal, ‘“when not assembled for skating upon the Collech, the favorite amvsement of Hans aud Katrina seems te have been a sleigh- ing frolic in Jan Derickson’s four horse sledge to Harlem, where they had a dance and a supper at the hostelry of Mynhecer Borsum. ‘Ten couples (‘packed Close, as it suiteth young men and maidens to ride,’ said the old chronicler) wes the sleigh load, and after a repast of bread and hot choco- Jate, concluding some hours spent in caper- ing tothe fiddlers’ strains, the party re- turned totown. Speeding by moonlight over hard frozen roads, past manor house and cottage wrapped in deep repese, the chief adventure of the return was apt to be a stop on the Kissing bridge (at Second avenue and Fiftieth street, acress the rivu- let flowing from ‘Tea Water spring), at which point custom allowed the cavalier to demand of the lady he escorted t} e priv- ilege of aspecial salutation. Unless this toll were yiclded the cortege came to a halt, or else it turned in another direc- tion.’’

In England the old four poster bedstead is still the pride of the nation, but the iron or brass bedstead is beating it out of the field. Tho English beds are the largest beds in the world. A peculiarity of the German bed is its shortness. Besides that. it consists frequently in partof a large down pillow or upper mattress which spreads over the person and usually an- swers the purpose of all the other ordinary bedclothing combined. In the tropics men sloep in hammocks or upon mats or grass. ‘The Kast Indian unrolls his light, portable charpoy or u:attress, which i» the morning is again rolled together and car- ried away by him.
