CROSS-qOTRY RIDERS. men who DELIGHT to follow THE HOUNDS. How They Pursue tho Wary Aniseseed Hug and Ride Daring Steeplechases— Capital Horsemen and Courteous Gentlemen. New York, May 14. —Our gentlemen riders ere again in the saddle. At present they are devoting their energies to tearing across country after hounds which are in hot pursuit of an anisesead bag. An Eng lishman—from the country where a real fox is an essential element of fox hunting—once spoke of our enthusiastic pursuers of the aniseseed bag as “seedlings.” This was more witty than true, for those who lay out the courses with an aniseseed bag make them stiller than a course taken by a fox would often be. Our gentlemen riders are really capital horsemen as well as capital fellows, and their good horsemanship is largely due to the stiffness of the aniseseed courses. I often hear people sneer at the sport of cross country riding us one of the results of An glomania. That may be, but it is a good result. In case of a war I would look for our Custers among our gentlemen riders. Every time they ride cross country they meet dangers from which those who sneer at them as dudes would shrink. Frank G. Griswold in the saddle. The oldest, vet one of the most dashing of these followers of the hounds is Mr. Frank Grey Griswold; he is the oldest without, however, having turned 40. To see him sauntering up Fifth avenue with somewhat of a stoop, you would not take him for a cross-country rider. You would hardly credit him with the requisite dash. Bat once in the saddle, he holds his own with the youngest and sauciest. Mr. Giiswold is often spoken of as “one of the most popular men in New York.” He is one of the pillars of the Union Club and an “institution” at Tuxedo. His prominence at Mr. Lorillard's beautiful park is due to his good fellowship in general and his relationship to Mr. Loril lard, of whose New York office he is the manager. He is a son of N. G. Griswold, after whom Pierre Lorillard’s son, N. G. Lorillard, is named. His manners are those of an easy-going gentleman. He is tali, slight, with drooping eyelid:, and long droop ing blonde mustachios. At the club he usually sits in a comfortable attitude, his hands resting on his knees and his muscles relaxed. He has studied at a German uni versity, and therefore can talk horse scien tifically as well as sportingly. Mr. Griswold’s figure is more familiar among the pink coats than among gentle men riders in steeplechases, as he is rather heavy for the latter sport. He was an en thusiastic leader in cross-country riding when it was first introduced hore as a swell sport, and he did much to make it popular and permanent. He is not riding as much as formerly because of an injury to one of his knees, sustained some five years ago from being thrown, but he still retains his inter est in the sport. He has been master of the hounds for both the Queens county and Meadowbrook hunts, and still holds the same position for the Rockawav Hteeple chase Association. His mounts are usually the most popular at the horse shows. The “Black Count,” as Count Elliott Zborowski was called during his visits here some years ago, liecause lie wore black in steeplechases, is known as a daring rider. His skill is as much admired as his fearless ness, for he is said to have the lightest hand on the reins of any one who has followed the hounds here. Ho is tall, has a smooth face, and his straight hair, like, Itis turf color, is black. He is also a good four-in-hand driver and an excellent polo player. His mother was known a s the “beautiful Miss Morris,” of Pelham. In Ireland, where he hunted until his recent return to this country, he entertained a number of American guest*, among them “Alty” Morgan (Mr. E. D. Morgan). Mr. Hitchcock, Sir. S. S. Sands and Mr. Stanley Mortimer, who vehemently denies that ho was sent to Coventry for landing on a prominent Irishman, and says ho has letters from the Duke of Portland and other prominent sportsmen asking him to come over for next season's hunting. George Work in the lead. Mr. S. S. Samis, Jr., of the Knickerbocker Club, does not “carry silk” very often, but when he does ho is sure to be always well up at the finish and often in front. The ‘‘light blue” is, therefore, rarely without numerous backers. Ho likes the extremes of lonic distance, heavy-weight steeplechases and polo pony races. He rides what his friends eau a “proper” race—not trying to get away on a frying start or lying back for a brilliant finish. Following the pace and working himself gradually into a good place by watching for opportunities, ho goes for fhe race at the right time and with many changes in his favor. Mr. Sands is faultless in dress and unostentatious in bearing. Mr. George Work may for contrast s sake be mentioned immediately after Mr. Sands. His riding is as reckless as the latter's is snfe. His escaixs have been numerous and to the spectators marvelous. Hut he is as cool us he is reckless, and apparently is drawiiig against an inexhaustible stock of nerve. He is the son of Mr. Frank Work, of horsey fame, and his sisters, Mrs. Burke-Itoche and Miss Lucy Work, are excellent horsewomen. Mr. George Work has tho handsome oval features of his family. He Is not riding as much now as in past’seasons, having become a stock broker. Mr. Belmont Purdy, of the Union Club, or Bob Purdy, as ho is familiarly called, is so keen a sportsman tliat ho resides in Gar den City near the Meadowbrook kennels in °rder never to miss a meet He is enthusi satioally devoted to tho interests of the Meadowbrook hunt. He is of medium Vf’sht, smooth-faced and fair of cofnplexiou. His race is of the “Billy Donohue” type, a waiting race and haru (lntsh. Sometimes be wait* too long, and empties the pockets of his friends which lie filled but an hour before Mn.. Purdy, who wtw a Miss Oil- ?**’ ,K a '®° an ictrenici cross-country rider. Purdy’s grandfather rode American Eclipse in the famous race between that horse and Henry. dhe Hunters are a family of thorough breds, and Mr. Arthur Hunter’s friends say tt * UUI ho girew up in his father, Johii Hunter’s, stables, in South Carolina. He has ueen a frequent and miscellaneous rider —steeplechase, flat race, long or short dis tance, were all the same to him. Since his marriage to a Miss Sehuchart he has not been in the saddle so often as in his bachelor day B - He is a brilliant rider, for, being a light-weight, he sets the pace and makes it as hot as possible, so that, if he has a good mount, his short, slight figure is not unlike ly to lie carried first over the line. Mr. Hunter is a keen judge of homes. He was among the first to detect Hole’s merits and purchased him in partnership with Mr. Frederick Gebhard, a venture .which ended in a squabble. Angie Belmont, as Mr. August Belmont, Jr., is familiarly kuown, frequently follows the Meadowbrook hounds with nis wife, formerly a Miss Morgan, a daughter of Ed ward Morgan and a granddaughter of Mathew Morgan. Mr. and Mrs. Belmont reside not far from Hempstead Plains, where the Meadowbrook hunt’s course is situated. Mr. Raymond Belmont, who recently shot himself, gave promise of becoming a bril liant all-around horseman. He and his friend, Mr. Oliver W. Boyd, were among the founders of the brilliant Howard polo team. Mr. Bird has been appointed whip of the Westchester hunt by Mr. F. O. Beach, the master of the hounds. The riding of Mr. Stanley Mortimer is distinguished for recklessness rather than skill—oi\ to put it bluntly, for lack of skill. With a fine string of horses his wins have been few, and he has on several occasions sustained severe injuries. Still he has a vast deal of pluck to his credit. Mr. W. K. Thorne, Jr., a grandson of Commodore Vanderbilt, is as well known in the South of France, where he usually spends his winters, as he is here, and his pleasant, courteous maimers and his daring horse manship have given foreigners a high idea of the American sporting gentleman. Tommy Hitchcock, or to lie more exact, Mr. Thomas Hitchcock, is as well known for his sportsmanship in England as Mr. Thorne is on the continent. At Cambridge he was considered a fine polo player. He owned the English built cutter Voiante, afcout the first cutter owned by au American. Mr. Hitchcock was Captain of the easily defeat ed international polo team last summer, but played so brilliantly that he was highly complimented by the Captain of the success ful team. One of our neatest gentlemen riders is the slight and trim Jack Cheever—Mr. J. D. Cheever. The great success of the Rock away hunt and the inception of the Rock away Steeplechase Association are largely due to his efforts. His sister, Mrs. Cowden, is one of the most graceful yet daring riders in the country. F. O. Beach and his pack. Mr. Foxhall Keene, son of Mr. James R. Keene, is, like Mr. Hitchcock, a brilliant iiolo player. Though a mere boy in weight, lie rode so hard against the big Englishmen in the international match that their Cap tain had to complain. Last fall Mr. R. Livingston Beekman, the tennis player, who was last year second to Sears, and was supposed never to have been “outside of a horse,” distinguished himself in the Westchester hunts. Messrs. Edward and Howard Potter are well-known mem bers of the Westchester. A young rider who is improving is the son of Mr. and Mrs. James P. Kemochan. Taking them for all and all, our gentle men riders are plucky and dashing young fellows in and out of the saddle. This reminds me that the New York Coaching Club’s parade takes place on May 38. How the interest in this sport lias grown in the last ten years since Col. De laney Kane drove his Tally-ho from the Hotel Brunswick up Fifth avenue, over Harlem Bridge and out into the lovely country that lies between the Harlem river and New Rochelle. It was the first trip of a public coach driven out of New York by a gentleman. The Tally-ho trips did not pay expenses, but Col. Kane did not expect they would. He merely desired to awaken interest for the sport among rich New York ers. and in this he was eminently successful. The Coaching Club, which is now a thriving institution, was organized soon after CoL Kane’s pioneer trip, and ever since the club’s organization the annual parade of coaches has never failed to draw a great crowd. The parade is always followed by a dinner at the Brunswick. Prominent among the pres ent members of the club are Col. William Jaf , who has been its President since its formation; Frederick Bronson, Col. Kane, Hugo Fritsch, Isaac Bell, Jr., C. Oliver Iselin, J. Roosevelt Roosevelt, Francis R. Rivfjs, Reginald Rives, James V. Parker, George R. Fearing, George Bech, August Belmont and Perry Belmont. Col. William Jay is a great-grandson of John Jay And a son of John Jay, who was Minister to Austria. He served (luring the war, and is, therefore, a real Colonel. He is a lawyer of high standing at the New York t>ar. Col. Jay has been driving since he was a young man. Ward, of London, the distinguished professional driver, taught him the art of driving four-in-hand. He is, however, a good all-around horseman. Ho rides well for his weight, and follows the hounds at Rockawav and Meadowbrook. His team consists of two dark chestnut wheelers, with a gray (off side) and a chest nut as leaders, 't he two latter are consid ered by inuuy the prettiest brougham team in the city. Col. Jay apd CoL Delaney Kane were most active in organizing the Coaching Club. Col. Delaney Kane is a son of the De laney Ivane who married Miss Langdon. Through this marriage he is connected with the Asters, Mrs. Woodbury Langdon hav ing been a Miss As tor. Col. Kane, like Col. Jay, took lessons of Ward. He also drove a public coach in England. He n arried a daughter of Mr. Adrain Iselin. H wis at one time the most popuiar loader of the German in Now York, and his sen ices in that capacity are still in much demand. Mr. Frederick Bronson is another crack whip. He is prominent in New Yo.k so ciety, having married a Miss King, a daugh ter of Oracle King, of the old banking house of Prime, Ward & King. , , , , Mr. Hugo Fritsch is the left handed driver of the duo, and though ho does drive wi h Ills left hand ho is considered one of the mo-t export handlers of the roius in the organiza tion. He is an Austrian and at present Austrian Consul. Ho often drives Mr. Theo dore Havemeyor's coach. Isaac Bell, Jr., is the present minister to the Hague. Mr. Bell, Col. Jay, Mr. Bron son and Mr. Fritsch drove a public coach, called the Tantivy, from the Brunswick to Yonkers and back, after Col. Kane with drew the Tally-ho. Each of the gentlemen named in connection with the Tantivy was about $S<K> short at the end of the season, and the Tantivy was not put on the road again. Notwithstanding financial losses oh the trip* of the Tally-ho and the Tantivy, two oi the younger members of the club, iluars. THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, MAY 15, 1887-TWELVE PAGES. C. Oliver Iselin and J. Roosevelt Roosevelt, started a coach between the Brunswick and the then newly organized Country Club at Pelham. Mr. C. Oliver Iselin married a Miss Garner and Mr. J. Roosevelt Roosevelt a Miss Astor. Both are brilliant drivel's. It was found very pleasant to drive out to the Country Club, lunch there and return to the city on the coach, and numerous parties for that purpose were formed and the equipage was engaged for weeks ahead. It was put on abqut the last of May and driven several months. Messrs. Iselin und Roosevelt had thirty-two horses, made three changes each way and covered the dsstanco in about an hour and three-quarters. They found them selves financially ahead when they stopped. This snmmer their coach will again run to the Country Club, and parties for that pleasant rendezvous are already being booked. The Four in Hand. Mr. Francis R. Rives and his youngest son Reginald Rives are distinguished mem bers of the club. Young Rives is one of its best drivers, though its youngest member. Among the Rives horses are two particular ly pretty pair of high action gray leaders. Mr. Francis R. Rives is a Virginian. His father was Minister to France and took him to Paris as his Secretary of Legation. Mr. James V. Parker, another member of the club, is the Mr. Parker who had the difficulty with Mr. Bradley over a game of whist at the Union Club. He is a bachelor, and hence his coach is always elaborately decorated with flowers, lie is quick in conversation, an entertaining talker and a good fellow all around. George Bech, another member of the Coaching Club, is a half brother of Mr. Henri Braem, who until the scandal which arose from letters written anonymously by him to a well-known society lady reflecting severely upon her husband, was Danish con sul here. It was Mr. Becli’s steam yacht on which the members of the Coaching Club who made the memorable trip to Lenox from Mr. Rives’ place on the Hudson, steam ed up to Cammath. Mr. August Belmont and Mr. Perry Bel mont drive beautiful blood bays. Other active members are Messrs. George Gris wold Haven, Richard Mortimer, E. D. Mor gan, Frank St urges, Prescott Lawrence and W. F. Morgan; among the non-driving members are Messrs. \Y. K. Vanderbilt, Thomas Newbold and Nicholson Kane. Out-of-town members are Messrs. Charles Joy, of Boston, Fairman Rogers, of -Phila delphia. A. R. Cassatt, of Chesterbrook, and E. M. Padelford, of Baltimore. The club is prosperous, and its activity is kept lip by constant accessions from the younger members of New York society. Such has been the result of Col. Kane’s plucky experiment. Gustav Kobbe. AN EXCITING INCIDENT. The Late Vice President Hendricks’ Narrow Escape. From the Indianapolis News. The death of Maj. Gordon recalls the vivid incident connected with the reception of the news of the assassination of President Lincoln in April, 1865, \and the memorial meeting held the same afternoon in State House square, which was addressed by Gov. Morton, the late Vice President Hendricks and a number of other prominent gentle men. There was some feeling against Mr. Headricks, who was then one of the Sena tors from this State, and shortly after he had begun speaking someone raised the cry of “hang him,” and this was taken up by a number of others, who evident!)' enter rained a deep-seated hostility against him. Several thousand people were facing the stand at the time, and as the dies increased a scene of intense excitement followed, during which the calmest man in the crowd was Mr. Hendricks himself. Conspicuous on the platform was Mai. Gordon, aud he added his voice to that of Gov. Morton, that Mr. Hendricks was ther e by invitation and his views must bo respected, and after pos sibly some ten or fifteen minutes of inter ruption Mr. Hendricks was suffered to pro ceed. Maj. Gordon often spoke of this incident, as it was particularly impressed upon his mind, not only because of his personal presence, but liecause a short time before, at the meeting of the Bar As sociation, he heard Mr. Hendricks deliver the identical speech itr which he was then being interrupted, and he noticed when the tumult was quieted that he resumed at thq. very point of interruption, in this way de veloping a self-poise that was wonderful un der the circumstances. After the close of the meeting the crowd still hung around, as if determined upon doing Mr. Hendricks jiorsonal injury, ruid, on ascertaining that he was unarmed, Gordon volunteered to act as an escort to his office, which was then located in the *-Etria building, saying: “Take my arm and we’ll go off together. I have an excellent pistol, well loaded, and no mail shall hurt you while I live. 1 will kill qjiy man who attempts it.” Mr. Headricks aud Maj. Gordon then walked away together, and they were not molested as they passed along the pavement to their destination. Maj. Gordon always believed that Mr. Hen dricks remembered this episode with the liveliest gratitude toward him personally, and he said of Hendricks in return: “His courage was like Othello’s sword —of the ice brook’s temper.” A Strange Suicide. The circumstances connected with the sui cide of a young Turkish journalist, Beshir Fuad Bey, are of so singularly melancholy a nature that it may not be thought ritrl eat on our pa.t, says the Levant Herald, to record them here. ” On Saturday last Fuad Bey returned to his home ut Nalli Medjid, Stamboul, about 9 o'clock. After complet ing certain correspondence be locked him self in and proceeded to undrew. Then, hav ing inoculated his left arm with cocaine to kiu the pain, ho opened the veins of it in four different point*, cutting the carotid artery with a pair of scissors. While the blood was thus flowing from his wounds, Fuad Bey wrote as follows, until compelled by weariness to desist: “My operation is performed. I felt no pain-only a slight pricking after the loss of blood. At this moment my sister is outside, knocking; but I have sent her away, say ing that lam busy. Luckily she does not insist upon entering. I can imagine no sweeter death than this. 1 liit my arm to let the blon i flow freely. My head swims —I am going to faint.” The narrative stops there. Fuad Bey could never continue it. When the door ]•". at length broken open, which is not effected until His death cry summons the household, he is found there in his last ugony. “Doc tor,” he says feebly to the surgoou who tries to administer re fief, "give yourself no trouble; I have but five minutes to live.” And after a few moments Fuad Bey breathed his last. A letter was found ad dressed to the police, in which the deceased begged them to accuse no one of his death. He bequeathed his body to the school of medicine for the purpose of dissection. In letters to his friends Fuad Bey declared that his mother had (lie-1 in a mad state and that and >cftors hod told him that a like fate was in st ire for him. Thus, after squandering hi fo 'tunc of some £30,000 pounds, he resolved to kill hitmelf. Fuad Bey was only 83. He leaves a wif' and two children.

It has often been remarked by strangers, as it is also a subject of pride among our selves, that Savannah is noted for the char itable disposition of its citizens, and its area is dotted by numerous charitable institu tions. We have justly earned the title of being the “City of Charities.” There are eighteen churches with seating capacity for 10,000 of the white population," and twenty churches with sittings for about 18,000 of the colored race. This is a good religious basis to work from. Apart from the numerous individual aud parochial churches of these forty congregations (which are not here taken into aooouuth there are public institu tions to cover the needs and necessities of poverty and sickness at. almost every stage. Let us realise, by a hasty survey, how very true it is that the wants of the distressed part of our population are met at every turn by an institution adapted to meet its necessity. If a poor mother needs a place to leave her babe while she is earning her daily bread the Day Nursery stands ready to receive her little one, and to leave the mother’s hands free for her work. If that little one should happen to lie bereft of both parents, left n tinv waif on the world’s rough stream, the Minnie Mission opens its sheltering arms to give it a perma nent home. If a girl, and not so young as this little one, but stiil an orphan, throe in stitutions, the Episcopal Orphan’s Home, the Catholic Orphanage and the City Asy lum, are ready to receive these girls and train them tor honest and industrious womanhood. If a boy, we scareelv need to name that great charity of Whitfield, Be thesda,with its wise, healthy and wholesome discipline for young boyhood. Youth of both sexes, wo can safely sav, is well pro vided for, but how about the middle age and old age? If a worthy jioor woman is in need the Widows's Home provides her with a room, rent free: the In dustrial Society furnishes both food, fuel, and in special cases a home; the Needle Woman’s Society supplies work and wages; while for the aged and infirm, the cripple and the decripul, Abram’s Home provides a pleasant aud secure retreat from the in firmities of advancing years. The Port Society, with its Bethel and Sailore’ Home, gives relief and protection to n special class, the hapless sailors cast upon our shore. All these institutions mitigate the rigors of poverty and abate its sufferings. It is the same with sickness and disease. Three city physicians, a free infirmary, four hospitals —three for white patients,‘one for colored— with their tovps of eminent physicians, wait by night und by day .upon the sick and suffering. As we survey all this charitable mechan ism, and surveying it, thank God, into whose ear enters the cry of the poor aud the desolate, for the charitable disposition of our people, past and present—we ask: Can Sa vannah need anything else in the way of helpful institutions? Are not the tears"and helplessness of the orphan done away with! Are not the growing infirmities of bid age provided for ? Are not the sick and suffer ing tended with gentle care, and disease fought and conquered by the cost medical skill? Is not white-robed charily, through out our beautiful city, —“hiding and concealing, Busy with her hand In healing"— all the ills that mental flash is heir to? These questions must be answered in the affirmative. Yet there is room for the in stitution whoso title beads this paper. I propose to argue for such an association on the grounds: First, the need of just such an occupation for many women left dependent upon then - own exertion*. Secondly, the need of just a class of trained nurses in our city. 1. What is there for woman to do, who, having known better days, deprived of her natural protector and bread-winner? Four things make up the category of her possibilities—sewing, teaching, keeping boarders, book agent. All of these possible sources of employment being more than filled, and the last is too disagreeable at all odds to be filled by a lady. In England there are a thousand occupations open to women, where in this country there is only one. Yet it is this very class, the woman who has been reared a lady, whose whole education has been to prepare her for the lighter parts of the great social drama— this class, I say, whose need is the greatest, is the very class unprovided for in all our charitable mechanisms. She cannot dig—to beg she is undoubtedly ashamed I What re mains for tier to do? Picture a good, healthy, self-reliant young American girl, wishing to utilize the brains and arms na ture has given her to wring a reluctant sup port out of lips. Where shall she turn ? I think it an insult to her powers to toll that hearty young damsel “to get, a book and sell it!” Where, then, shall she turn? I hope, before the year rolls by, to a school for trained nurses, such as exist by the score in France and England, and are springing up in the large cities of this country. It is a profession eminently adapted for woman. She is fitted for it by nature —no touch so gentle as hers, no presence so refreshing to the sick ami suffer ing. She need feel no degradation in this calling, for it is the highest, next to her own motherhood, that she can enter. She need have no anxiety over her maintenance, the dreaded wolf will not approach her door, for the emolument* of this profession are al ways large. She will be living in the line of her lire, for she will be caring for the sick and needy. By all means, then, let us hasten the day when we ran open the doors of such a school to the young women of our city. 2. There i* another side to the question. We have the greatest necessity every day for just such a class of skilled and ex jierieneed nurses. The few who are here are confined to the hospitals, but they are not enough to meet the demand. Who that has had any experience in the sick room, as friend, physician, or clergyman, does not re call numberless cases where there was tho most imperative demand for the nimble fingers, the steady bond, the gentle step, the cool judgment, the untiring vigilance of a trained nurse? How often has the cry gone un, from agonized li)>s of husband or wife, “Is there no one that is trust worthy whom I can get?” How many ex baustea mothers might have been spared, by the presence of some such reliable sulwti tute? How much weariness saved, how much suffering relieved, how many mis takes avoided, nay, how many lives that have dropped over the line through loving ignorance, might have been rescued by some such wise and gentle ministration"? The need is great and crying. A hundred sick-rooms the next thirty days will bear witness to tho existence of a" demand for just that class of persons whom it is the de sign of this school to prepare, it is with much pleasure, therefore, thit we learn that a committee of prominent ladies have this matter in hand und arc engaged in study ing methods and gathering fluids prepara tory to the opening of a training school for nurses in this city In the fail.
