A" GOOD sroav.
It is Told by Walter Besant and is an Oct
True Tale.
The lady was a. widow and rich——very
rich—as the French novelist says,richis-
sime, writes \Valter Besant. The gentle-
mauwas a widower, past 60, extremely,
even ridiculously, poor, and the last of a
most noble and historical house. History.
is full of the achievements of his people.
Froissart mentions their exploits in every
other page; they were always taking this
side or the other, for the king and against
the king. When they took a side they
meant it; out they marched, they and
theirs, in full armor. W'hichever side
they took, it always ended in their being
captured and decapitated for high treason,
or else killed in battle. From father to
son, from generation to generation, for
long centuries, none of them ever went
out of the world from an iiiglorious
feather bed; it was always from the
grassy field of honor or from a. scaflold.
A gray heard was unknown in that house,
nor had any of them ever experienced the
tender emotions of a grandfather.
The lady, besides being; a. widow and
richissime, was of ignoble origin, and her
late husband had made his money in
trade. Reflection upon this point made
her unhappy. She was so rich that she
thought she ought also to be noble, just
to correspond. It is a. common confusion
of thought. She desired, above all things,
to connect her riches with an ancient
name, and she made a proposal to the
nobleman. - “Marry me,” she said. “Give
me the right to use your name. In re-
turn I Will give you as handsome an au-
Iiuity as you can possibly desire. You
shall have the means of living, as you
please, and of obtaining all that you can
desire. I will not ask you to live in my
house. You shall live where you please.
I will only ask that, for appearance sake,
you will take your place at my dinners,
and that you will show up, as the lord of
the house, at my receptions.”
’Twas arranged in this sense. The lady
took and furnished fir herself a. great
hotel. She had the roonis decorated in
honor of this and that illustrious ances-
tor. The arms of the house were every-
where; thc portraits, busts and statues of
the house were in all the rooms; the pic—
tures represented scenes and episodes in
the history of the house. The servants
wore the ancient livery, the well-known
livery, of the house. The hotel became a
museum of the house, and at dinners and
on reception nights the Duke himself was
' always present, grave, dignified and state-
ly, with the look of one who had stepped
out of a picture frame 500 years old and
had put on the clothes of the nineteenth
century, but not its manners. \Vhen
Madam the Duchess was not at home he
lived in his own chambers, at the club,
after his own fashion. An excellent bar-
gain, was it not, and one that seems per-
fectly fair to both parties?
BEER IS NO CHEAPER.
Yet the Cost of the Ingredients and of Mia!!-
ing it Has Deereased Greatly.
Sir William Harcourt, Chancellor of
the British Exchequer in presenting this
year’s budget to Parliament, called atten-
tion to a fact which is perhaps of more in-
terest in the United States than in Eng-
land. It is this: That while in. the last
ten years there has been a falling off‘of
from 30 to 40 per cent. in the cost of the
ingredients used in beer making, there
has been 110 corresponding decrease in the
retail price of beer. English brewers get
hops and barley cheaper than they used
to. [Recent appliances for refrigerating
have largely reduced the cost of that ele-
ment of ale and beer making. Cooperage
'expenses are less than they were, and
there has been, in fact, a cheapeniug of
all the processes; but the price of beer is
as before. Sir William Harcourt also
called attention to the fact that, in
1884, the collective revenue of British
brewers, subject to the income tax, had
increased one-half, representing, in part,
the increased profits of the brewers.
‘What is true of,Engla.nd is true also of
the United States. All articles entering
into the composition of American beer
have come down in price, but beer itself
continues at the same rate as before, and
the diminution of cost instead of benefit-
ing the consumer goes exclusively to the
brewer or to the retailer, but oftener is
divided between the two. The number of
barrels of beer drunk in the city of New
York in a year is 5,000,000. Chicago comes
next with 2,800,000. Then Milwaukee
with 2,500,000 (an abnormal total for a city
not in the first rank); St Louis, with
2,000,000; Brooklyn, with 1,800,000; Phila~
delphia, with 1,800,000; and Cincinnati,
once the paradise of beer drinkers, with
only 1,300,000, against 1,2 l0,000 in Newark:
The population of Cincinnati is 330,000, '
while that of Newark is little more than
200,000. Beer is now the almost universal
Americafi drink, and of late it has found
a great popularity in the South, New Or-
leans consuming 300.000 barrels last year
and Louisville 350,000.
AFRAID OF THIRTEEN.
The Old Superstition Assurcdly Makes
That Number Unprofituble.
Notwithstanding the numerous “thir-
teen clubs” that have been formed in the
country to demonstrate how foolish is the
idea. that that simple number carries with
it bad luck, there are many who cling to
the notion, although it costs them money.
A well-knowu theatrical manager spent
many sleepless nights trying to think out
a plan of seating for his theatre by which
he could‘do away with a. thirteenth row
or number thirteen seat. I saw three
ladies get out of a cable car the other day
—after they had paid their fare, too—be-
cause they discovered the car was N o. 13.
That cost them 15 cents, but what is 15
cents when your life may hang in the'bal-
auce? There are a great many people who
dislike to live in houses numbered 13; but
while it may be distasteful to them they
endure it rather than have the inconveni-
ence of moving. One row of houses in the
East end was always without tenants on
account of there being 13 houses in it.
Rent was reduced from $75 a month to $25
and superstition was conquered to save
$50 a. month.
Welcoming a Lawyer to New York.
We learn from our valued contempor-

himself to this town. Mr. Erwin has an
Eolian attachment that is much admired,
