John Ruskin is now 66 years old, and he 
has wisely resigned his professorship at Ox¬ 
ford. He is not overstrong, and he has plenty 
of work to do. 
The President locks himself in one day of 
the week, excluding all office-seekers, in order 
that he may attend to more important public 
business. 
The Empress of Russia, the Princess of 
Wales, and the Crown Princess of Germany 
are credited with the prevention of war be¬ 
tween England and Russia. 
Senator Ramson, of North Carolina, is 
said to be the most fashionably dressed man 
iu the Senate, and to have the widest acquain¬ 
tance among actors and actresses. 
A rumor*) s extant that Secretary Endicott, 
not content with being a great reader of fic¬ 
tion, is actually himself writing a novel, and 
has got as far as the 844b chapter. 
It is said that since he entered the Presi¬ 
dential mansion, Mr. Cleveland has never 
once b?en late at breakfast; and he requires 
the same punctuality of all the household. 
A oroceryman at Keokuk, Iowa, in sub¬ 
scribing $1 to a church etitertainment, added 
after his signature, “the only place iu Keokuk 
where you can get 16 pounds of sugar for $1.” 
Tiik deposed Empress Eugenie goes shop¬ 
ping in London when she wishes to procure 
anything, just like auy lady of limited means, 
and her mourning gown and long crape veil do 
not pi (serve her from being run after and 
stared at by crowds of ill-mannered people. 
Miss Kate Stephens, professor of Greek 
and literature in the Kansas State University, 
has been compelled to resign, she says, be¬ 
cause she is a woman, but her religious belief, 
or rather want of belief, has had a good deal 
to do with the opposition to her. especially as 
she insisted on freely expressing her opinions. 
M. dk Lksskps relates that on the occasion 
of his marriage, the day of the opeuing of the 
Suez Canal. November, 1S61>, bis father in-law 
handed him IDO,iup francs ns a present to his 
wife At that time, he adds, .Suez Canal 
shares were selling at ’251.1 francs, or 50 per 
cent discount. He invested the present iu 
these shares, on which he realized 1,500,000 
francs. 
C apt. Howard, whose bravery saved the 
day to the .Dominion troops in their recent 
fight with the Riel insurgent*, is a native of 
Connecticut. He served in the war of the re¬ 
bellion, and also five years in the regular 
army, where he had considerable experience 
in Indian warfare. He is a brave, cool beaded 
soldier, thoroughly’ familiar with army life, 
and he is also a very skillful machinist, pos- 
sc-sing a complete knowledge of the mechan¬ 
ism of a Gatling gun. 
The following description of Lady Lonsdale, 
who married Karl Do Grey a few days ago, is 
given: She is very tall, being over five feet 
10 inches—so tall that she never wore heels to 
her shoes. Yet her figure is graceful. Her 
complexion is brilliant, her eyes dnrk and 
magnificent. Her nose is rather prominent, 
and her beautiful dark hair has been rendered 
still more beautiful by the chestnut tints it 
adopted five years ago.
