‘New Haven—Mr. and Mrs. George
Fleurot. Mr. Fleurot's mother and his
eight- --year -oid daughter, arrived in
this city and registered at the Tontine
Hotel as from New. York. Just before
noon yesterday the party started to see
New Haven. They had gone less than
a block from the hotel when Mr. Fieu'
rot was slapped on the shoulder by
Wallace fl. Moyle. a young lawyer, who
is the incal agent of the Connecticut
Humane Society. Moyle told Mr. Fleu-
rot that his daughter, who was close by
in the charge of a male. was without
stockings and was suffering from the
cold. Moyle ordered Mr. Fleurot to
have long stockings put on the little
girl within an hour or he, Moyle, would
have Mr. Fleurot arrested. Mr. Fleurot
indignantly asked the authority of Mr.
Moyle, who displayed his Humane So-
ciety badge. The little girl to whom
Hoyle referred was wearing high shoes
with the customary short Wife. i: or
come just above the top of the shoe
and leave the leg bare to the knee. Mr
Fleurot took his family back to the
hotel and then went in search of the
City Attorney. He failed to find him.
and went back to his hotel, and ldter.
with his family, took a train for New
York. Moyle late in the afternoon
went to the City Attorney's office and
asked for a warrant for Mr. Fleurot's
arrest on a charge of cruelty to chil-
‘dren. The City Attorney said he would
investigate the case. Moyle is a grad-
uate of Yale in the class of ’91 and of
the Yale Law School. He was a foot-.
ball player. and at one time a member
of the Yale Glee Club. .

Age is the standard by
which all oriental rugs are
judged; the older the rug
the better. Use gives to it
that satin sheen which is
its glory; age completes the
work of the weaver. soften-
ing and blending the colors.
The best rugs are those that
have been longest used.
, There are rugs old and
new in the exhibit here;old
ones predominate. You can
tell them. They are of all
sizes from little mats to
carpet rugs.
Some of the richest and
most expensive: A dark
India rug, 9 feet 2 inches
by 12 feet is of empire
green ground work with
border and medalion cen-
ter in, golden , brown
and red. It is com-
paratively new — probably
not more than forty years
old-and sells for 8138
Another is of olive green
and rose is a beautiful crea-
tion. All are ideal recep-
till-1L room carpets.
An Iran rug 6 feet 7 inch-
es by 17 feet 5 inches hasa
center of red and orange
figures shading into a blue
ground work while the bor-
der has a rich terra-cotta ‘
foundation beneath an elu-
sive indescribable pattern—
097.
Here is a small Iran,
feet 2 inches by 5 feet 10
inches. It is a mystifying
combination of red, pink.
yellow and brown and has
the sheen of rich satin—
016. 25.
There are hall rugs in
plenty. A Kurdistan 3 feet
by 9 feet 4 inches, is of a
striking bold pattern. A11
Iran in rose is a bewilder-
ing pattern, while another
is a rich and rare blending
of gold and green.
Small rugs: Bokharas,
blue Bokharas, Mossouls
and Serebends; some of un-
usual beauty—216 up. A
Shirvan, with green, red,
blue and white worked in-
tricately together is a fas-
cinating specimen.
But no one can describe
rugs; come and see for
yourself.

TAMEDTHEJOCKEY.
"it is a notorious fact." said an old
horseman. "that successful jockeys
are more nilllcted with the big head
than any other class of midgets you're
liable to meet with. On two men-
slons that i recall l've seen American
waiters take prominent American
Jockeys down when the latter have be-
come insufferable in their conduct.
Some years ago an eastern jockey
whose fame was spread broadcast
throughout the racing world was tak-
ing dinner with a party of frmllshly
idolatrrhrs friends at the (.'iiff House,
outside of San trancisco. The jockey
had been riding during the winter rac-
ing in and around San Francisco, and
on this day he had won the swell event -
of the year on a rather no account
horse. Consequently his hat was 'a
whole lot too small for him.
" He was an insulting little chap at
best. but on this occasion he simply
let his tongue run away with his
brains. His humor took the turn of
joshlng an old time waiter at the Cllu
House, who had been in California
since the days of the Argonauts. The
old man had long side whiskers, and
the jockey made sundry and divers re-
marks to the waiter about the oppor-
tunity he was giving to the wind by
wearing whiskers of that particular
length, and the old man took the talk
good naturedly without paying much
attention to the touch of nastiness in
the mldget's remarks. Finally. how-
ever. when the wine had gone around
pretty freely. the jockey reached up
behind his chair as the old waiter was
in the act of, performing some little
service for the men at the table. and,
twisting his hand in the hair on one
side of, the old servitor's face. he delib-
erately pulled out a fairly large hand-
ful of the latter's whiskers.
"The old man leaped back with pain
and indignation. the. jockey laughing
at him idioticaliy. The the waiter
cooly lifted the jockey out of his chair
by the scruff of the neck. sat down
and calmly deposited the midget across
his knees, face downward.
" 'Son,’ said the waiter. 'there’s
something that you've stood in need or
for a. long time past. judging from
your actions here during the past few
months and that something you 1e
about to get and get good.’ am. he
brought the palm of an ample hand
down with a smack that sounded very
pleasant indeed unto the cars of all
the rest of the people in the room tex-
cept the jockey's friends) who had
seen the beard pulling incident. Then
he brought both hands into play, and
the rataplan told of splendid execu-
tion. The jockey kicked and strug-
gled, but he couldn't break loose, son
he had to take his medicine. Then his
friends at the table lumped to his res-
cue. and, quickly letting the jockey
slide on to the floor, the old waiter.
thoroughly aroused. jumped up and
knocked them down one, after the oth-
er. He just polished them all off in de-
tail, and when he had got through with
them he stood his ground. Then the
manager appeared on the scene. and
when he was told by a numbed of oth-
er guests, prominent men what had
happened, he assisted in kicking the
party out of the house.
”Another time a jockey who leaped
into prominence with meteoric speed
by reason of his winning two of tee
great events of the eastern turf in
rjuick succession got the worst of it ill.
the hands of a (ioney island waiter.
i saw the incident, myself. The jockey
had had such a mighty accession of
the ’l am it' spirit that he. considered
he could perform all sorts of mean lit-
tle tricks at the expense of all hands
and do [he some with impunity. On
this day he had won three straight
races, and his imperiousness was
something monumental. He took din-
ner with three bookmakers on one of
the big Coney island piers. The man
who waited on the party was a bullet
head, but a quiet attentive man at
lie was removing some plates
key picked tip a siphon of seltzer and
deliberately squirted half the bottle
full in the waiter's face. ’ihe waiter
wiped his face and his shirt front on
with his table towel and then he walk-
ed 11p to the jockey's chair and said:
“ 'Hase you had yer dip in de sea yl':
t'day. Freddy.’
“ ‘No.’ said the jockey. with an ex-
pression of surprise on his face, as if
he wondered what was coming.
“ 'l t'ought not,‘ said the bullet
headed waiter. ‘Datfs de reason im
goin' i“ let you have it now.‘ .
"Then the waiter suddenly picked
the famous jockey up. and before an
of the men at the table could interfe .
he carried him over to the railing
the pier and dropped the midget its
rier into the water. about )5 fer“
low, . ;
" 'l jist want t' see if dfitle
shooter wlt' de sweeled nut km in
as well as he kin ride a horse.’ said the
waiter. quietly-watching the jockey

The jockey could swim and he made
the bench without any trouble. but he
didn't return to the pier."—Washing-

Bl'T HE MADE A GOOD OFFICER.
Some twenty or twenty-live years
ago a gentleman of this place was cl-
ected constable. and although he had >
no opposition his nervousness“ to the
result was quite noticeable all during
the day. After the polls closed and he
was declared elected he hied him to
the river bank. in the meantime hav-
ing armed himself with an .old pepper
box pistol. one of the earliest patterns
of the revolver. and shortly after was
heard to go through this colloquy with
some onetrnseen. Pointing his pistol
at a sycamore tree he exclaimed in dig-
nified and dramatic style:
“Halt! i am constable of this dis-
trict and command you to halt. You
won't eh? Well. here goes"——bang!
1 hate to do it. but It is in the dis—
‘harge of my official duty. Now. i
told you to stop. but you wouldn‘t"—
baug! Just then the old pepper box he-
aame unmanageable and bang. bang.
bang. bang went the remaining four
loads. The Iring soon attracted a
crow. d and the tree was thus saved.
But. notwithstanding the episode. of
the sycamore and the scars it still
shows, the gentleman is said to have
