(v V83 T————— ek L ~J New York, Jan. 31.—The forthcom- ing English racing season, which be- gins early in the spring, will attract wide attention in this country because of the large number of American horses that will participate. The de- cadence of racing here the result of legislation in various states has caused the shipment of many of the best American horses abroad, There the sport is unhampered. Among the prominent owners who have sent horses to England are James R. Keene, August Belmont and Harry P. Whitney, John E. Madden, com- monly known as the wizard of the Am- erican turf, has disposed cf some of his best horses to the British racing men, while scores of young horses, purchased at the yearling sales here | by British sportsmen, wiil also make their appearance at the English race tracks. Colin and Priscillian, two unbeaten racers, head the long list of Amer- jcan horses now preparing for the races on the other side. Other well- known horses there include Ballot, Fair Play, Dinna, Suffragette, Wedding Bells, Sir Martin, who will try for the Derby; Bobbin, Melisande, Helmet and Baby Wolf. That the English handicapper holds a high estimate of the American high bred runners is evident from the fact that Ballot, Colin, Fair Play and Pris- cilian al] are asked to carry in their engagements pounds more than Eng- land's best horses.

Joseph Rose of New London and Jo- seph Nichols of Willimantic were on ‘Saturday afternoon chosen as umpires of the Iastern division of the Inter- scholastic league, at a meeting of the managers of the RFastern division teams held in New London at th Crocker house. The two umpires chos- en were also assigned their dates on the schedule.

Ingect of Borneo That Exhales Most Powerful Perfume. v The beaux and belles of Borneo do not have to distil perfume for their hair or handkerchiefs. They have only to take a walk until they find a| mimosa in blossom. Clinging to the flower-balls is found a mxgmncent beetle of brilliant emerald green sha- ding to a bright bronze on the wing- cases, and touched with gold on the | head. This living jewel emits a pow- erful scent of attar of roses, perfuming the air for many yarde around it. number of them placed in a house will fill it from top to bottom with delight- ful fragrance. Young girls roll the insect in a bit of cotton cloth and braid it in their black young men suspend it around their necks Iike an amulet or an Egyptian scarab. The fragrance gradually grows fainter as the beetle loses its vitality, and dies with it. The beetle lives in captivity only a few hours, and as the scent expires with {t, no way has so far been found to extract or preserve the exquisite odor. The scented beetle appears only when the mimosa is in flower. Neither birds nor lizards will destroy it, and it is protected even from the vora- clous woodpecker by its powerful per- fume. CHARITY OF LITTLE SERVICE. New York Health Makes Moral of Commissione Incident. “If charity,” said Health Commis- sioner Darlington of New York, “were really as fine and serviceable as we incline to think it is, disease would almost disapear.” He shook his head and smiled. “Too much of our charity,” he said, “resembles that of the Norwalk wom- an. A tramp, on a gray and freezing day, presented himself at her back door. “‘Madam,’ he said, ‘my fee are nearly froze.’” He pointed to’his shoes, a tangle of string and strips of leather and holes through which his bare feet showed. ‘Have you got an old pair of boots you could give me, madam? “The woman, after rummaging in her closet, returned to the tramp and said feelingly: ““Poor fellow; I know you must suf- fer terribly without shoes this bitter weather. I have none to fit you, but here is a pair of my late husband's skates you can have. g Big Wages Must Be Earned. A group of feminine wage earners was“discussing a news item the other day, one which told the public that the private secretary of the greatest finan- cier of his time is a woman who re- ceives $20,000 a year. There was envy in their voices and bitterness in their words, and nobody seemed to grasp the pith of the story, which was a re- cital of the secretary’s duties. was a woman who had to be on duty meany hours, and possess not only a marvelous memory, but infinite tact and patience. More than that she had | to possess marked executive ability. She has probably been in training for years, and undoubtedly earns every penny of her salary. The girls | who envied her could not do the work, because they were not fitted for it— probably they would not under any circumstances, because they were not the hard-working kind. All they could | see in the story was the -salary, and that made them envious. ] A Gladstone Bull. Mr. Gladstone was once guiity of an amusing bull in a debate on the ques- tion of disestablishment. Dilating on the hold held on the affection of the people by the Church of England, he said: “When an Englishman wants to get married, to whom does he go? To the parich priest. When he wants his child baptized, to whom does he go? To the parish priest. When, he waats to get buried, to whom does he go?” The house answered with a roar of laughter, in which Mr. Gladstone himself joined, adding: “As I was contrasting the English church with the Irish, @ bull is perhaps excusable.” Bruin Too Fond of Crow.
