Opinion by Adams: “The words ‘New Era' added to the word ‘beer’ indicated nothing as to the character of the product. Suppose the plain- tiff had tendered for transportation an article denominated simply ‘brandy,’ would the plaintiff be entitled to maintain its action to receive the article upon an obligation that it was a new kind of brandy which had no intoxicating quality?

Morris Waito in Puck: A fow days ago I was returaing home and had taken my seat in s train on one of the western roads. 'Wa'tvere soon bowling merrily along, aifll,“as usual, T.was on the lookout for the fiend. Presently he appenred. His fisg act struck me as unusal. He closed the door before shouting, The effeet of this would be to rush out the whiredng, rushing noise of the wheels rollifig over the rails and thus make his uttérance more intel- ligible. I did noft understand why a railroad brakoman should .want to do that. After closing the door he advanced to the center of the car, swrped. cleared his throat, and in a deliberate, clear, resonant voice, .whoge distinct tones penetrated to every part of the car, he crieds “Dun-kirk, Dun-kirk! Passengers- for-New-York-Lake-Erie-and- Western- road-change-cars—Dun-kirk!” As he commenced the sentence it was curious to observe the expressions on the faces of the ‘]mssengoru—curpflm, wonder, incredulity; as he proceded these expressions deepened, and when he had reached the end and turned to leave the car, a gencral hum of conver- sation ensued, in which could be heard such comments as: “Well, never!” “Oh, what an elegant brakeman!" “Didn’t he say that beautifullyl” “He's a perfect jewel!” An old farmer nudged | him and sai “Bub, I heerd every THE WOLVERINES AT HOME.

Derrorr, Mich, Oct. 24.—[Special Tele- frram o the Bek. ] —The Detroit and St. Louis buse ball clubs arrived here this morning and were met at the depot by a large delogation of base ball craks. A procession of car- viages headed by & band was formod and the clubs escorted to the Russell house, where a public reception was held. About four thou- sund people attended the game this after- noon. Baldwin was fully as effective as heretofore ngainst the Browns, while Car- rutliers was hit freely. During the game Brouthers was presented with a zylomite bat from Spauldidg Bros., of Chicago, for lead- ing the team in batting, Ganzel with & hand- somo gold wateh and chinin, and Bennott with 500 silver dollars, which he wheeled around the buses amid the yells and cheers of the crowd. The two clubs were banquejted at the Russell house to-night, after which they took the train for Chicago where they play to- morrow. The series will end at St. Louis.

It has been reported lately that the case has has not yet been finally settled. The parading of those gushing love-letters which had passed between Winans and the O'Keefe womaun during their love escapnde, was asad blow to Mrs, Winans, and since tho notorious scandal she has not ap- peared in Baltimore society.

The Rus- sian engineers were frightened out of their senses. Not one of them could grasp so great an engineering feat. The obstacles in their way seemed unsur- mountable.

The basket is not like the common willow basket in use, but is an invention of Cavlotta, who patented it, and consists of a light board platform, one-half inch thick, suspended by hammock netting to the concentrating ring above, and acts very much like an ordinary ham- mock with a broad board laid in it.

He had casls made of celebrated statues of clas- sic female figures, such as Venus, Pysche, Clito, and others, which adorn- ed the lawns about the mansion. Of course the s*wtues, as well as the bewnti- ful gnedens with the charming little summer howers shaped like Chinese pa- godas and Turkish mo-ques, were in full view of people pussing along any of the streets bounding the block. Some prudish Methodists and Presby- terivas objecied ‘o the nude statuary and at a preecders’ meeting pa sed reso- lutions prote-ting to the city authoritios against 1he display of the art work.

Her brother Ross has a fine es- tablishment of his own in another and now more fashionable part of the city. The old gatekeeper and his family and the special watchman and several old servantsare most of the time the only oceupants of the beautiful place, though the gardens and walks and the house in- side and out aro always kept in perfect order, Baltimore h s been too slow a place_for Ross Winans. He pre- fers New York, but also spends much time abroad. Thomas Winaus, like his brother ‘Willium, had many eccentricities, He constructed many models of steam ves- sels. He conceived an idea of building a steamer in the shape a cigar which would be remarkable for spoed. I spent several ordinary fortunes in tryi 1o develop this schemes but eigar-shiaped boats proved a failure, and until within a few years ngo one of hismodels, which cost him 850,000, was lying rotting at his private wharf on the Upper Patapsco. Tom Winans might have left a million or so for charities when he died, but cery little was given to such worthy ob- jeets. His two children, Ross and Celeste, were left the entive fortune. The only sister of Willinm and Thomas ‘Winans married a Mr. Whistler, a rela- tive of the artist Whistler. Her two daughters were brought up with her brother’s children, Ross and Celeste, About ten years ago Ross Winans' young wife died and he married his younger cousin Neva Whistler. She was born in St. Petershurg antd named after the viver Neva. Sheis avery hand- wome woman. They had but one child —a gir that died of smallpox. The child is said to have contricted the dis- case from the infected clothing of anew French nurse who had just been em- ployed to attend it. The little one was taken ill out at the country seat of the Winans, a few miles from town. It was Dbrought to the great isolated mansion of Tom Winans on Baltimore street. Heve the mother and fathev left the babe in charge of one of the leading physicians of the city, who gave up his other practice and devoled his wholo time and attention to the little sufferer, but was unable to save itslife. The arents were not with their child when it died. They avoided the contagion and paid the physician $5,000 to attend it.
