walks an elderly gentleman who proceeds
straighl to private box No. I, which at tlis
time of day is always reserved for him
There he draws down the curtain and bus
les himself reading one Of the morning pa
pers until his dinner, which Is invariably
composed OF the same dishes, is prepared
for him. His gold headed cane, wi b black
silk cord and tassel, his ruiIled shirt, his
qucne, his white neckcloth, and more than
all, his precise and lofty polite demanor
declare him u gentleman Of the old school.
When his dinner is ready, 1t Is set before
him, and two small bottles OF claret wine
arc uncorked. and with II two wine glasses
are placed ON tho table. The old gentle.
man Systematically then proceeds to finish
both his dinner and his wine, and his man
ncr Of disposing ofthc latter is what causes
him to be regarded with unusual curiosity
by the frcqucnters Of the house.
lie fills two glasses, drinks tho contents
Of one himself and spills the other on tho
floor, and thus continues until both bottles
are empticd. What invisible friend be

Joy the feast; what unknown deity he pro-
pitiates NY this profusc libation no one can
tell. Certain II Is that for more than three
years has he persisted in this curious Gus
tom, and during that time has not spoken
to any one connected with the establishment
