Of all the ingredients that go to make up the Hor: Bhow the horse assuredly appears to the best adyantag ‘He is there to show off, and he dutifully does his best. Boctety in the boxes is at least innocuous; It harms no ‘one else and it bores only itself. But the turgid stream of humanity that oozes round and round the promenade ' is by no means fnnocuous. Nowhere In America could he found a more illuminating spectacle of un-Americanisin. This shuffling, shoving, staring, gaping mob fairly reeks of flunkeyism, toadyism and all the abject idoiatry of so- @al prominence that is most forelgn to our national cred In this mob there are some who have the good ex- .@use of being there on their business—dresemakers studying new creations in gowns and hats, taflors noting mew fashions in waistcoats and trousers, reporters and i artists observing the human element that rounds out the complete picture of the Horse Show. There !s, too, a certain harmless and amusing class of folk who pay their gate money to scrutinize the owners of much-read names 3 as they would inspect the man-eating lon or the trained a ape at Bostock’s. But the majority of this sluggish human maelstrom {s composed of persons who regard thelr coming as a pilgrimage, who feel their performun:e % to be a sacred rite, who regard the occupants of cortain boxes before which they come to an awe-stricken stand | not as objects for vulgar curiosity but as subjects for Teverent adoration, whose names {it would be sacrilege to mention save with bated breath, a casual glance from whose eyes Is to be treasured as an heirloom, the chance wound of whose voice Is to be humbly hung upon as an inspired revelation, the careless touch of whose slesve i 7 fg to be eagerly received as a benediction. ‘Sg » Th are the men and women who make of the Gar- Gen a happy hunting ground for misanthropes and a f paradise for cynics. pe NOT A NEW STORY. a The collapse of the Millville (N. J.) Stock Building i: ‘Association is interesting because of its resemblance to other crashes of village Mnanclal associations, The secre- a tary is reported missing, most of the funds have dis- appeared and the directors express their surprise that so untoward an event could have happened without their full coenizance. Incidentally, and most unexpectedly, , “widows end orphans who had their all staked in the association are penniless.” The association had paid regular dividends for nearly thirty years, It had been formed by the usual processes. | A number of congenial townsmen, convinced that institu tions of this kind are profitable and a good thing to have @ hand in, get together and make a preliminary choice of “themselves for the ofices and the board of directors. It is not required that any of the incorporators should have any practical acquaintance with modern financial methods, The enterprise onee launched and proving, as tn this ease. to be immediately successful, the handling of the funds and the oxecntive management of the concern are left entircly to the care of the oficial at first Intrusted with them. He has demonstrated his capacity, why not trust him further? Gradually the directors delegate more, and more of their authority to him and It becomes a matter of business etiquette not to give his accounts more than a perfunctory scrutiny, In due course of timo the crash comes. In the Millville case the books are, hopelessly tangled, but sufficiently clear to show that for) many years dividends havo been paid to stockholders | from the principal of their investments. There Is no novelty in this; it 1s a twice-told tale but One that bears frequent repetition for the moral In it. COLLEGE FOOTBALL. i The gate receipts of the Yale-Princeton game Inst Baturday amounted to 333,000 and when Yale meots Har- ‘ward at New Haven to-morrow they will probably aggre- gate $50,000. To such an extent has the financial aspect of the game as the college boys play it developed from the sma!] beginnings of a quarter of a century ago. The player himself has gone through a correspond- fngly remarkable phase of evolution. “guard” or “tackle” on a \iniversity team is now specimon of brute force under gentiemanly control for which there fs no parallel in the annals of physical development. ‘The heroes of chiva’ if we may judge from the sults of armor that have survived, were puny by comparison and the Greek champions who ravaged the ranks of the Tro- Jans weakiin, None of them could have withstood aur college cclossus in his moleskin fighting gear.
