|J| Women Aro Just The Same.
“Madam," said the gallant old man,
after obeying her request to close the
car window, “I was just thinkiog how
different the women of to-day are
from those of ten or fifteen years ago
in the matter of travel. Formerly i
lady, who had to travel alone was—”
“Yes, sir," she interrupted, but would
you please tell me it I am on the righ
train for Buffalo!”
"You are, Madarn As I was say
ing, the women of ten years ago were
continually worrying for fear—"
“And does this car go right through
without change?”
“It does, Madam. 1 was going
say that the women-
“And do you think my trunk will go
right through with me?”
“Of course, Madam. In former
years a woman traveling alone was
afraid that—’’
"You are sure we are on the right
train?" she interrupted.
“Very sure."
“And we don’t change?”
“No’m,”
“And we get in at 6 o'clock? ’
“We do.”
“And they’ll call out the name when
we get there?”
“Oh, yes.”
“Well, I hope nothing will happen
but I am very, very nervous. Would
you mind asking the conductor if we
are likely to have a collision?”
And the gallant old man, who saw
such a great difference between the
woman travelling to-day and those ol
ten years ago, says the New York Sun,
retired info his shell looking as though
something had rubbed against his
placidity of mind.
The Minuet and Cotillion.
This is certainly a century of reviv
als. The minuet and cotillion are
being danced, we drink our tea out of
old china and are prouder of old silver
plate than the most beautiful of mod
ern designs, we go back to Queen
Anne’s time lor our houses, and to
Sheraton and Chippendale for the de
signs for our furniture. As to our
pastimes, the origin of tennis is an
tique enough for anything: and now
we are reviving croquet, the graceful
pastime which has been hibernating’
so to speak, for fourteen or fifteen
years.' I aro glad that it is so. I
think that tennis, like other sports, is
rapidly acquiring a taint of profession*
alism. Besides this, it is a selfish
game, so far as concerns the inability
of people no longer very young to
withstand the violent exercise it in
volves; and now, what with the rules
and regulations and text books and
champions and columns all to itself, in
the papers, it is becoming quite as
•pubi c” a game as cricket or foot ball-
Indeed, when I have seen some of my
friends charging across a lawn as hard
as they could go, with faces like the
August sun at noonday ought to be.
perspiration running down their cheeks 1
hair disheveled and a generally breath
less look about them, I think, as the
shah does about dancing, that "it is
folly for people to take such violent
exercise, when they can pay others to
do it for them.”. Croquet requires just
as careful and scientific playine as ten
pis, and if it is not as athletic a game,
it is certainly more graceful and quite
as interesting, and I wish all success
to its rival.—Kathleen, in Leeds Mer
cury.
Last of the Buffalos.
Twenty years ago there roamed
over the plains and mountains of the
far West, nearly 8,000,000 buffaloes.
To-day there ore less than 500 head
of the animals in existence. There
are but 85 head of wild buffaloes, 204
olive in captivity, and about 200 un
der the protection of the government
in Yellowstono park. There is also
said to be about 500 head iu the Brit
ish possessions, north of Montana,
but this is rumor. Of the eighty five
head of wild buffaloes which are
known to exist, twenty-five are in
Texas, twenty in Colorado, twenty-
six in Wyoming, ten in Montana and
four in Dakota. The statistics have
been carefully gathered by the officials
of the Smithsonian institution, and it
is absolutely known that the number
stated comprises all the wild buffaloes
of the world. The skeletons of
tbq^Oumcrous herds of a score of
years ago aro bleaching on the West-
plains, a tribute to the prowess of
urerican Nimrod.—Washington
