c VVXyX-. prated wan paper
forty years ago in pieces of about eighteen
inches square It was not very beautiful,
looked at in the light of this year of grace,
1687, but it was very expensive whan one con
siders the cost of print-papers of the same
grado to-dny. Tho advance in the idea
-which has grown into an art has transformed
the paper-hanger of ten years ago into the in
terior decorator of to-day; and, indeed, the
art is so fascinating that it has becomo a
fashionable " fad " with both sexes.
Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Aycr has acquired a
reputation that extends across tho Atlantio as
an amateur interior decorator, and her house
in West Thirteenth street, decorated under
her own direction, is a vision of beauty and
taste. Her boudoir, a room seventeen feet
, square, may be taken as a sample. The walls
are in granite, perhaps tho most popular of
the prevailing styles of paper, with a frieze
thirty inches deep, of floral design, and in
bright colors from terra-cotta to a warm, rich
shade of green. Of course the arrangement
of the furniture and tho collection of bric-a-brao
adds to the eloganco of tho effect.
H. James Anderson co-operated with Mrs.
Aycr in tho docoration of her apartments.
Oen. John N. Knapp, Chairman of the Re
publican State Executivo Committee, has a
wide reputation for his taste in this now art.
His residence at Auburn is less famous for
,its interior beauties than forthe magnificence
'of the grounds only in proportion to tho
number of people' who have enjoyed the
pleasure of seeing it.
Miss Hollo Urquhnrt, tho Casino prima
t donna, lives with her mother at tho St.
John, and her parlor and musio room, whero
her guests are receiv.ed, is a marvel of in
terior beauty. It was decorated under her
own supervision, for boo is an artist and en
thusiast in tho work. The side walls ore
ecru, with flitter gold work for a back
ground. The frieze is eighteen inches wide,
of English paper in blue and terra-cotta of
geometrical design, and the ceiling is in a
'lighter shade, flecked with silver stars in flit
ter affects.
Mrs. Morris, wife of ex-Alderman John J.
Morris, decorated her home in West Twenty,
first street, and it is a model of inexpensive
art.
P. Hopkinson Smith, of Thirty-fourth
1 street, Mrs, J. C. Brown, of Tompkinsville,
Staten Island, and Mrs. Ernest Groesbeek,
, of Park avenue, have also. achieved reputa-
tions in the same line, having made tho
selections and superintended the work of
i decorating their own houses and lent material
3 assistance to friends.
t Tho fashions in interior decorations aro al.
most as fickle- as tho styles in millinery.
White hard-finished walls are no longer seen,
d and this is accounted for by the fact that ef
fects much moro beautiful are now attained
a with woll paper or other devices at a cost
much less than the hard finish or frescoes of
a former day. Besides, a master of this new
art will select and combine hiB paper so as to
k give an effect that will relieve the
4 owner from tho purchase of half
f the otherwise necessary furniture for
tho room. The proper thing this
1 fall for tho fashion in wall decorations
i sheds the old and dons the new coat when
;. the autumn leaves are falling is a granite
1 paper with a thirty-inch frieze in two or
, three harmonious colors, without regard to
i the size and height of the room. The fo
; vorite for parlor paper is in whito and gold or
1 gold effects. The granite is a solid paper of
; Vegetable fibre, dyed in tho pulp. It took
5 its name from the first output of the mills,
I but it is now made in all the neutral colors.
5 The color for the new year is much lighter,
Ti ecru or unbleached muslin being tho favorite,
H and others being lighter, down to nearly
& white. Paper has Bupplanted fresco work
M and other time-honorod finishes for ceilings
2 also,' the effect being now attained at about
one-tenth the cost.
Terra-cotta and blue combinations are still

in vogue for dining-rooms, studios, offices,
libraries and halls. Mosalo designs with
oighteen.lnch freezes to match, and celling
Saner, corner pieces and filling in the samo
estgns and all in the samo gen.
eral color aro very pretty. Raised flock
papers are gradually growing in favor among
tho more expensive dooorations, supplanting
papier macho, ombossed velvets and other
raised devioes. It has a resemblance to
cloth, and the figures are made of finely pow
dered wool, attached to the paper by varnish
ing them over. These embossed figures aro
painted in colors to match the fnrnlturo or
carpet by skilled hands after the paper is
hung. A drawing-room of ordinary sizo
recently finished in an embossod flock, cost
complete over $200, and tho expenso some
times runs as high as S600,
Ton years ago the eighteen principal wall,
papor manufacturers in this country formed
0 pool, and held to uniformity in prices till
laBt July, when the pool was broken. But
tho disastrous offoct on tho smallor concerns
prediotod at tho time has not followed, and
prices for standard goods have not altered a
hair. Cheaper gradi-s, however, havo.not
boen so low in prlco in twonty years as at
proBent.
Time-honorod paint is still the prevailing
device for interiors of publio buildings, as
witness the Federal Building, tho Court
houses, the Grand Central Depot and tho
City Hall. The Washington Building, at No.
1 Broadway, is a notable exception. It is fin.
ished in cartridgo paper, the rival of tho
granites in popular favor. Two shades, terra
cotta and blue, provail on tho Washington's
walls.
The Union Leaguo is perhaps tho most
handsomely, most tastofully and most elab
orately deoorated of any of the city clubs.
Hardly two rooms are alike, and it would ro.
quiro even more space than the Evenino
World can spare to describe the beautiful
effects there found. Suflloe it that tho papers
aro in Japanose and French leathers, French
raised papers and French flooks. Dolinoni
co's, a wonder in tho art, has in its various
rooms almost every variety of paper, the
French and EneHnli Rtvlnn nrnrlnniinatinfr.
The theatres almost universally have
painted or frescoed walls. Wallace's was
once finished in ombossed velvet paper, but
it was found to be inappropriate, and was re
moved and paint substituted.
Tho Barrett House is unique in its interior
finish. Its walls show a -variety of styles,
from a rough.coatod plaster painting, or
" scraoh work," as it is termed, through
all varieties of paper. The Mor
ton Houso ' tap is finished magnifl
icently in papier-mache1 and the Hoffman
House in lincrusta Walton in every conceiv
able design. Thero aro the Mosaic, Moorish,
Oriental, Japanese, Renaissanco, antique, or
nate and other styles in tho various rooms.
For a thing pleasing and inexpensive tho
decorations recently completed in the restau
rant connected with tho Lorena aro to be
commended. Tho side walls, friozo and oeil
ing are in olive and shades with gold and
metal effects. Tho cornico is tinted in har
mony, tho cove being maroon in color and
tho mouldings in olive.
The decorator in those modern days learns
the amount of monoy his ouslomer desires to
expend, makes tho selections in accordance
with the style and colors of the furniture;
tho paper Is hung by his operators, and when
all is done, if the decorator knows his pro
fession, for it is n profession, the customer is
delighted without naving worried away any
of his good nature in the selection of tho
goods. That is to soy, this is the case if one
can afford it. But probably among those who
do not care to pay a decorator 950 for hiB two
hours' work, paper-hanging will go on in the
old sweet way. Tho mistress of the house
hold will select the paper, and put it on tho
walls in seams and creases, to be the subject
of the jests of the Lord of the Manor forever
of tor.

nearer, a shiver seemed to pass over the
? round, the grass bent, the leaves fluttered
ointly, the stronger flowers seemed to lift
their heads as though listening, a darkness
crept up from behind the hills towards which
the sun was travelling, coming on and on
against tho rising wind; a flash of lightning
gleamed like a fork of fire aoross the moving
olouds ; the thunder, following close upon
it, eohoed and re-echoed among the wood
lands ; the sun shone fiercely as well ; then,
as the grass and leaves stirred once more, the
rain come pattering down.
How the earth welcomed it; how nature re
jolced in it. Down from the trees the birds
flew, fluttering their wings and fluffing all
their feathers out ; frogs and toads and all
creeping; things issued from their hiding
I daces j in the river the fish swam to and fro,
eaping now and then to catph the falling
rain drops.
Again and again the lightning flashed,
again and again tho thunder orashed over
head and rolled away in the distance ; each
moment the wind grow strongor, tearing
away at the tree trunks and waving their
'branches high in the air ; the clouds had
swept across tho sun and the rain poured
down in torrents. T.
Not a pleasant afternoon to be out ; nothing
savo four walls and a roof could stand against
suoh rain. No wonder a man, driving in a
high dog.cart"Witba young girl at his side,
pulled up at tho lodgo of Castle Dolan with
the intention of asking shelter.
"Do you think you con hold Prince ? " he
asked of his companion, screaming the words
at the top of his voice, so as to be heard above
the raging of tho storm. "He pulls pretty
hard; but I must get down and knock, they
will nevor hear lis othorwise."
For answer tho girl took tho reins in both
hor small gloved hands and the man leaped to
the ground; the horso started forward but
was quickly pulled in, and stood trembling
in every limb, his veins showing clearly
through his satin skin, his nostrils dilating,
his eyeballs starting from thoir sockets.
Once, twice, thrice tho man knocked at the
door of the lodge, but received no answor ;
again the lightning split tho clouds with a
zig.zag line of fire, again the thunder crashed
and the wind swept with even fierce fury
aoross the earth. 'Twos woll the girl had
nerve and strong, steady wrists, for the horso
started forward once more and neighod with
fear, but she sat straight and firm, controlling
him easily, seemingly almost unconscious of
the storm. In a few moments the man took
his plaoe once more, repossessed himtelfof
the reins and drove off in the direction of tht
castle.
Wc rnuit atk for shelter there." he nid.
loudly i " they cannot rery well refute U

Honor ; you will catch your death of cold."
The girl smiled and shook her head, but
did not speak. Apparently Uie negative
gesture was not strictly truthful, for her
olpthes mutt have been saturated. Probably

She looked straight before her, facing the

gether.
" Now I must see what I can do for yon,"
the Earl said, heartily, " We arJ. about the
same height, I think ; can you dress in a
quarter of an hour and join us at dinner ?
We are quite alone my wife, son, daughter
and myself,"
" You aro more than kind," the stranger
answered.
" Then I will send my man to yon; he will
givoyou everything you require"
" Thank you."
They had reached the Earl's dressing-room,
and already the stranger had divested him
self of his coat, displaying a shirt of exquis
ite texture and whiteness. He was a very
handsome man, with a dolicate, refined faoo,
large, dark.blue eyes and a heavy dark mus
tache, which hid a beautiful, though slightly
weak mouth.
As he threw his coat upon a chair a sudden
thought seemed to strike him ; ho took it up
again, nut bis band in the pocket, took out
his card-cose and handed a card to tho Earl.
" That is my name," he said ; " it is just
possible that you may know it."
" ' Max 8elwyn,,"th Earl read, a smile of
surprise crossing his face. " Of course I
know it; who dors not? So you are the
great novelist; I congratulate myself that I
ave been able to be of use to you. My wife
will be delighted ; I have been almost jeal
oub of you sometimes; there is no getting a
word from her when a new work of yours is
Sublished. Are you staying in this neigh,
ood?"
" Yos ; I have taken a littlo place five miles
from hero. ' The Hollies ' it 1b called ; you
know it, perhaps?
" Yes. I am moro than glad to think thatf
we shall be neighbors. Now I will leave
you: dinner shall bo put off until you are
ready; Graham will see that you have every,
thing you require."
" Thank you, again."
In a quarter of an hour Max Selwyn had
changed his clothes, and stood before the
glass, looking, with a slight' grimace upon
is handsome face, at the fit, or rather non
fit, of hit coat.
" It cannot be halped," be said, (railing at
the man-servant. I mart trouble you to
show me the way."
Tho man went before him running down
the stain, and throwing open tho door of the
great drawing-room. The Earl came forward,
and presented the author to his wife and
children.
" The young people are friends already."
he said, glancing at Honor, who, arrayed fa

" Gov. Hill will bo hero again in a few
" I don't think George will get 45,000 votes

" What is the use of being a member of a

" Won't there be fun If tho Democrats do

Boys, look out for a citizens' movement

" There goes Surveyor Beattle, District At

"Six cards. A misdeal. Shuffle them up

"Jay Gould and ex-Senator Thomas O.

The brewers are having a good deal to

" He carries different brnnks of cigars in

" I am in tho Custom House and they won't

" You are right. My doctor don't send in

at me 'round Christmas. Ho don't ask, but

back in a low armchair, and talking to the
brother and sister. " Your daughter is won
derfully beautiful, Mr. Selwyn."
" Yes," he answered, softly; "and yet there
never was a girl with so little vanity. She has
had admiration enough to turn any woman's
head, and yet I think she scarcely notices
it."
"You must be very proud of her."
." Yes ; sher is all I have in the world. My
wife is dead; we had no other children.
Honor is my one ewe lamb, and, David like,
I suppose some day, some other man will
steal her awav from mo."
"You must not grieve over that," the Coun
tess said, in a low, sweet voice i "I think
noitber men nor women ever attain perfeot
happiness unless they marry. I do not say,"
she resumed, smiling brightly, "that they
always obtain it then ; but you would wish
your daughter to have her chance, would you
not? Ana surely you could better spare your
child than most men; you have so many other
children who must be very dear to you I
mean the children of your brain."
A curious smile crossed the author's faco.
"Such unsubstantial offspring could
scarcely compensate me for tho loss of ray
child of flesh and blood," he answered.
" 8omo authors, I know, dearly love tho
children of their brain. Charles Dickens,
it is said, wept each time a favorite character
died. It is not so with mo when the curtain
falls upon their happiness, I forget them."
" Is it possible," the Countess said, looking
slightly disappointed. " Thoy take such a
bold upon my thoughts. I havo wondered
often how a man could so well understand
a woman's heart and thoughts."
I " Perhaps," ho answered, " because woman

At this momont dinner was announced.
Max Selwyn offered his arm to the Countess,
the Earl to Honor, and the brother and sister
followed, lingering a moment to speak of the
beautiful girl,
" Wo shall love her, shall we not, Bruce ?"
Mary said.
" Yes," ho answered. " It will bo nico,
dear, for you to have her for a friend."
" And for you, Bruce."
" Yes, and for mo, if she will give mo her
friendship, but to her wo shall scorn sadly

"Therefore she will, perhaps, like a

Bruce took his seat upon Honor's right
hand, and fell into easy conversation with
her, taiing every opportunity of looking at
ber beautiful face and down into her great
violet eyes.
"I hope you will like Derbyshire," he
said.
"I am sure to," she answered. "Do you

WAITING FOR MISS JU8TI0B.
Recent Repair to the Porno and Walls of
the Cltv llnll.
5UPERINTENDENT
of Repairs and Sup.
plies Bergen, of tho
Department of Publio
Works, told an Evxn
wo Wonu reporter
to-day that he was
being driven nearly
crazy by tho delays
which wero being
made by the man out
West who is manufac
turing tho figure of
Justice forthe domoof
tho City Hall. The
pedestal has been
ready for several days
post, and tho statuo
should havo been hore
last Saturday, but nothing has yet boen
heard of it. It is oxpocted any minuto, how.
over, and Sir. Bergen says that it will surely
be in its place before the end of the week.
Tho statue will represent a figure of Jus.
lice, with scales and sword, and will be 10
feet 1 inch in height, including tho small
pedestal. It will bo mado of thin copper
filatcs, Inclosing an iron framework just liko
be big statuo on Bedloe's Island, It will be
painted whito, however, in imitation of
marblo, in ordor to mnko It match tho trim
mitigs of tho City Hall, The statue is only
an architectural figure and is not intended to
bear close inspection as a work of art, At tho
height at which it will stand it will bo neces
sary for tbn lines to bo bold and rugged in
ordor that they may bo brought out strongly,
but at tho samo time the outlines will be ar
tistio in detail.
It was decided to make tho figure of metal,
because it would bo so much lighter. This
is an Important consideration when it is re.
roemberod that tho domo of tho City Hall is
hardly able to support a vory heavy weight
upon its summit. Since the old statue was
removed, howover, a great deal of repairing
has been done about tho dome, ana it has
boen braced and strengthened in various
ways. Ono improvement will be the ro.
bronzing of tho clock, which will put it quite
in a now dress. In addition to this It was
found that large scales of the brown-stono
on tho roar wall had begun to fall off, ren
dering It dangerous for pedestrians In tho
park below, as some of the scales were a foot
or two In diameter and half an Inch thick.
Thoso have all been removed and the entlro
towor and domo of the City Hall has been
put in first-class condition. The cost of tho
new statuo for tho figurehead will bo about
81,000.

She laughed a low. hearty laugh.
" That is just what I wish to miss," she an.
swered. " I want, for a time, to be able to
look at the same hills and trees day after
day, to get to know and love them. I have
lived all my life in such a whirl of chango
and pleasure, now I want a short space of
quiet. I have danced along ever since I was
born, now I want to stand still for a while."
" You do not look as though standing still
will suit you."
" If not, we can pack up and dance off
again; but we shall see. We have taken the
Hollies for a year. If we weary of it before
that time is nast, we can leave it."
" I see," t..e Countess said, speaking to Max
Selwyn, "that Lord Hartley has been the
latest victim of the check forgeries. You
have heard of them, of courser"
"Yes, Indeed," he returned; "I suffered
myself to the extent of two hundred when In
London. I suppose that I ought to be thank,
ful for having got off so cheaply."
" I defy any man to copy my signature,"
the Earl broke In. " The man who can do so
successfully is welcome to what he gets."
" Is it so curious?" Max answered. smiling.
" Put a spider in an ink bottle, then spread
a piece of paper, take him out and let him
walk over it, and you have something ap
proaching my autograph," the Earl answered.
Not nn easy one to cony?"
" By no moans. Still, the man, whoever
he is, is clever. I would not let him hear
you boast, it might put bim upon his metal."
" It is curious thai they cannot catch him,"
the Earl continued. " I know men who have
given up their check books, and who draw
all their money themselves, paying only in
notes or gold, to save themselves from this
forger. It is ridiculous that with our deteo.
tivo force we should be put to such incon
venience." " Still, inconvenience is better than loss of
money," Max 6ald. " It is strange that never
onco has one of the forged chocks been
doubted, while innocont men have been kept
for hours, tho genuineness of those presented
by them being questioned."
" Well, there is one comfort, he is sure to
be caught at last."
" You think so, and I daresay you are right;
but really, he I supposo it is a man is such
a clever follow that I almost think I hope
that he may escape ; he must want money
badly to play so dangerous a game so persis

" If he dies liko a felon, I suppose the world
