At one roof garden only is it possible to check your infernal woollen strait-jacket, and then you have to conform to antiquated rules of respectability by putting on a weird, shapeless garment of alpaca supplied by the man- agement. | Still, take it for all in all, a declted step forward has been | made in the masculine assertion of rights to life, liberty and the pur- suit of coolness in everyday costume. | The next step will be the aesthetic one. After men’s clothes are made comfortable, they may gradually cease to be ugly, and even come within speaking distance of the picturesque. ‘Tho two quali- ties are closely allied. Clothes cannot look right unless they feel | right to the wearer. | Balzac—who wrote wisely and entertainingly on these matters, | although he himself habitually dressed like, a hobo—declared that true elegance in dress does not come from luxury, nor from vanity, | nor from fondness of display or conspicuousness. He agreed with | the fastidious Barbey @Aurevilly that your true dandy wears his clothes as if he had nothing on. Ho may epend half the day in| dressing, but after the toilet is completed he never gives it another thought, and others may make what they like of it. Of course, the dandy couldn’t get away with thie in « tight collar, or pointed | or in @ frock coat and Oscar Hammerstein hat, in days like | ene. The municipal art authorities of Parts will not even allow statues to be erected wearing frock coate—and doubtless they are right. We have all come to regard the ancestral “Prince Albert” | for men as in the same class as the curb bit and check rein for horses. It may be an impressive garment to get married in, but such occa- sions are not sufficiently frequent or of regular enough recurrence te call for the permanent addition of long skirts to any man’s ward- Tobe, unless he be a clergyman. _ OH “NEVER MIND THAT CHARTER IN THE DARK.” RAW one in the dark!” is an order you often hear roared out to the kitchen by the waiter in the beanery. It means a cup of black coffee. When a simillar order was telephoned over Murphy’s private wire from New York City to the Legislative kitchen at Albany, it meant “Drew one charter in the dark.” That is to say, a por- tentous document framing the local government of 5,000,000 people, and directing the expenditure of $1,000,000,000 every four years’ ad-| ministration, was to be handed out “while you wait,” and no ques- tions asked.

They were twin brothers, Not only were they exactly alike in form and feature, but a strange mental eyenpathy kept them in touch with each other, no matter how ¢ar separated they might be. ‘This same odd likeness of mind made them both fall in love with Pmilie, the lovely daughter of a French general who was on @aty in Corsica. When Emilie returned to Paris Louis followed her thither and took up the study of Iaw in the French capital In order to be near her. But his hopes were quickly dashed. Emilie’s father married her to a middle-aged sea captain named Lesparre. Louis did hie grief as best he could and continued to visit the Lesparre home as a friend. Boon afterward Capt. Lesparre was obliged to go to sea again, While he wae away @ young Parisian man-ebout-town named ChateswRenaud made violent love to Emilie, She foolishly wrote one or two sentimental letters to him. Then Louis pointed ont to her the man’s true character and che withdrew in dread from the allly but harmless fitrtation, Chateau-Renaudwas angry at being thus thrown over. When some @riends of fie made fun ef him at his fathure to win Dmille’s heart he declared he Red not failed. And, to prove thie He, he wagered that he ‘would bring her that night to @ late supper that was to be given at the Bachelor rooms of De Ofostgtron, a dissolute Frenchman.

Louis had scant knowledge of fencing. But he accepted the chal- | ienge. The two men met at a retired spot in the forest of Fontainebleau They fought end Louts was killed. At the same moment his brother, Fabien, hundreds of miles away tm Cor- fica, felt @ sharp pain, as of a sword wound through bis boty. Aa tne vision he saw the whole scene of the duel: the «lade in Fontainebleau forest, his brother lying dead against a tree trunk, Chateau-Renaud wiping the blood from his sword, And, as he gazed, Fabien saw the spirit of Louis appear at hs side, whispering to him words of farewell. That night Fabien set out for Paris. ‘The affatr caused great sensation. It was not the first affair of the ort in which the victor had been concerned. Public feeling ran high. Chatvau-Renaud found it safer to leave France for awhile, Harty one morning he set forth in @ post chaise As the ehaise was passing Fontainebleau forest it broke down.
