^ ????? He Struck the Ex-President. , Gns Butterworth, the popular boni* face of the Iiidgeway House, is probAblv the only living man who, literally speaking, struck a President of the jUnited States and received thanks in/Stead of a term in jail for it. Mr. Butterworth once gave it to Benjamin 'Harrison in the neck and he lives to S+all the tale. It was while President arrison was living in his Cape May cottage. Mr. Butterworth was runping a hotel not far from the Executive residence. One day while enjoying a ride on a trolley car Mr. Butterworth, who happened to be sitting be 2nncl a 6hort, thicK-set man with gray hair and beard, noticed a very large, healthy mosquito getting its bloody work in on the back of the thick-set man's neck. Acting on a very natural J impulse, Mr. Butterworth raised his 1 tight hand and brought the palm of it * idown on the man's neck with a re- ? pounding slap. The man turned ' quickly arojand and Mr. Butterworth i paw that he was the President of the ' United States. < "I beg your pardon," said Mr. But- c terworth, "but there was a mosquito < ,on your neck." "Thank you very much," remarked 1 jthe Chief Executive, cordially. "Judg- ] ing from the force of your blow I 3 don't think the inseot will give me ' &ny more trouble. I don't use 6lang ] .very often, bat this is the first time I i ?ver got it in the neck?at least in that fashion." Then Mr. Butterworth plucked the dead mosquito from the President'? ' neck, and he and Mr. Harrison entered into a pleasant chat on general . topics. Mr. Butterworth has that mosquito yet. ?Philadelphia Inquirer. ^ Biff Vessels lor the Lakes. , Plans already formed settle the question whether lake steamships 400 feet long or upward, with a capacity of carrying 600 tons ot freight at a load, will be common after the opening of the channels twenty feet deep through all the shallows between Duluth and Chicago and the ports of Lake Erie. There is no longer a doubt that such monster vessels will rapidly multiply within the next few years, and they are certain to do a great part of the carrying trade of the lakes, perhaps most of it, before the | end of the century. I The steamships already contracted | for and those which are certain to be l fbmlt before next spring will undoubtedly so far surpass all vessels now in ,use in ability to make money at low rates for freight that other vessel owners will be forced to follow the pioneers of this latest step forward in the conscruction of splendid lake car riere. J&ven an over 6uppiy 01 tonnage, such as is very likely to be the resalt, will not prevent the work of replacing small craft with steamers of the largest size from going on steadily. In one 6ense it will hasten the change. Only the biggest vessels can make money in snch seasons of general over-competition for cargoes, and in order to continue the business the owners of old boats must let them go out and put in commission steamships equal to any on the great lakeB.?

The Wheel Covers Much More Ground Thau the Walker.

Now, in view of these magnified iteps made by the bicyclist, it would je interesting to know what the na;ure of a man must be, to make in talking the same distance made by ;he bicyclist, with the same number >f movements of the feet. Clearly he steps in this case must be seven md one-half feet each, which, at the owest estimate, represents three steps >f an ordinary man.

Among the hills of old Berkshire ie a noble birch tree, gigantic in trunk and limb and abundant in foliage, which towers above his neighboring companions, but grows, apparently, out of an immense granite boulder. Here, one might think, it would have paused, submitting to the adamantine preseure, either crushed utterly to the earth or dwarfed and deformed by its unyielding environment. But it had the irresistible evolutionary forces of nature behind it. The suulight above wooed it from its prison house; it pushed upward toward the light. Gradually the little crevice in the rock was widened, the great boulder was split asunder as by the hammer of Thor?the noble tree was scarcely dis- j torted by the struggle, protected 1 from destructive storms by its con- 1 quered enemy.?Boston Transcript. < Pin Recovered Atter Thirty Tears, The Hon.

The arrangement of the hair, a becoming neok adornment, a stylish veil?these three points of a toilet are serious matters to be well pondered over. This season Dame Fashion has seen fit to provide her followers with a great variety of neckwear, so that long throated and short throated, 3mail necl'^d and large necked women may each a.ld all find something suitable. While the skirts of the smartest gowns are severely plain, trimming galore is used upon the waist and most wonderful effects and colors are accounted fashionable. Embroidery and lace, silk and satin and all sorts i of contrasting colors, as well as fabrics, are combined with a curiously bewildering result, which if becoming, calls forth only favorable criticism.

For positively one gown, with half a dozen different collars and trimmings, would suffice in place of the same number of gowns generally considered absolutely necessary. Fancy embroidered collars and fichus transform plain gowns into most dressy affairs and cover defects if cut and fit in a delightful manner. In all the shops are now sola these fancy collars, the prices varying according to the materials. It is possible to make them at home if onca a good pattern is secured, and, of course, by so doing much finer embroidery can be had for less money. The plain ones, which have only a band of insertion, are very effective, and as they are sold for less than SI, are well worth that amount, for the money 3aved would be very trifling, and they are fussy things and take considerable time and patience to make. The more elaborate ones have the yoke of allover embroidery and one or more full embroidered ruffles. Some are of line tucked muslin, with lace ruffles. An extremely pretty stvle of collar, which can be bought forS2.50, has the yoke of narrow tucked organdie trimmed with heavy lace two inches wide. This is finished around the neck with a collar of folded moire ribbon, deep purple, and as this year purple is worn with every other color, will do duty on a pale blue, a yellow or even a light pink gown. The beauty of the batiste and muslin I gowns lies in the collars, which form ! the principal trimmings on the wai6t.
