A POLYGLOT FAMILY.
Middleton Press.l


There is living at middleton family
in which nine distinct languages are
spoken, namely. English, German,
French, Spanish, italian, Portuguese,
Greek, Arabic and Turkish, besides any
number of dialects connected mostly with
Italian and Spanish. The head of the
family, who is native of Zurich, Switz-
erlapd, is musician Of wide accomplish
ments and reputation, who from a love
OF travel has seen most parts of the world,
having resided for considerable periods
in widely separated countries. After ex-
tended travel he settled in Tunis, North
Africa, where he held the position of
musical director for the Bey, having
charge of his orchestra. He married
there lady who was native of Arabia,
but born Of italian and English parents.
The children were born to them there.
Leaving the country on account of an
epedimic, they settled next at CONSTANT.
nople, and resided some years at the
Turkish capital. There he was the Sui
tan's chief musician, not only having the
charge of the bands of all his regiments
at the capital, but also of the music of
the Sultan's harem. Other children
were born to them at Constantinople.
He left the Turkish capital to come to
America, dwelling year in Germany,
and travelling in Italy before coming
here. For many years they resided in
New York and Brooklyn. On coming to
this country he continued his profession,
leading orchestras and teaching music.
The gentleman referred to is Mr.. Frank
Mezger, who, with his wife, is living
with their youngest son, Frank Mezger,
Jr., on the Pitts farm, just out of the
village. Of fourteen children, several of
whom We're born in this country, only six
are now living, and all but one are resi-.
dents of Middleton. The oldest Of these,
who is the wife Of Mr.. Frank De Nor
vile, compositor in the Press office, is
by birth an Arabian, and speaks all the
languages known to her family except
Portuguese and Arabian. Like her fa-
ther, she is a musician, and is giving
lessons in both vocal and instrumental
music. The next younger member Of
the family, who is a resident of Brooklyn,
was born in Constantinople. The oldest
son, whose marriage was lately published
in the Press, is also by birth Turk, and
the other three "a sister and two brothers
are American born.

GREETING A JUROR.
Pills ielphia Record. !


Among the passengers who arrived
from Washington on the noon train yes
terday was one who wended his way to
the Girard House. Throwing his hand
satchel on the desk he took up the pen,
and with flourish wrote: "John Hane-
line, Washington, D. c. u
"I'm glad to breathe the fresh air once
more" remarked the stranger to Mr..
John Wilson, the room clerk. 81 tell
you it does one good after ten weeks con-
tnement on that confounded jury to
be able to move around again"
"What?" inquired Wilson, "were you
on the Guiteau jury? Shake! Say no
more. Bully boy"
You're rock, put in gentleman
standing near the new arrival, as he slap
ped him on the back.
Praise God that i can shake one of
those jurors by the hand" said well
known elderly gentleman from Dauphin
county, as he caught Haneline by both
hands.
Z" You must be awful dry" ventured
another guest "Come, take something
with me. You ought to have whole
bar"
No second invitation was needed, and
the stranger was almost carried to the
bar-room by his enthusiastic friends.
He nominated brandy, and after a
seconds pause volunteered to repeat the
act himself, but he was cut short by a
lumber operator from Williamsport, who
cried out, "This is mine. You can't
pay for anything in this house."
The second round of drinks was put
away, when in stepped well known
politician of this city, who, hearing the
noise and seeing SO many persons gathered
about the man, inquired who he was.
When told, he threw his arms around
Hanelineand embraced him, saying,
"You are one of the gang, sure. wish
Leedsey and Hilly could see you.',
Say, Old Stocking" said a we'll
known contractor, 81 love you and all
that jury. They're men,"
So it went for couple of hours, when
the Guiteau juror began to get awfully
thicked speech and mixed in his ideas.
Then it was proposed to take him up to
the Union Club, and when he sobered up
to show him the town and its life by
midnight moons. This would have sue.
ceeded admirably had not just at that
moment Mr.. NJ B. Shaw, the well Unknown
Washington correspondent of the Boston
Transcript, stepped into the bar.room
and asked whats the racket, boys?'
When told, he replied: That's not
so. I know that man. He was drawn
on the first panel and challenged by the
defence. He didn't serve on the Jury at
ALL" ....ts..
"Is that so:" dozen men yelled into
Haneline's ear "Speak out or we'll
throttle you"
"Wash shaft" inquired the now in
ebriated man. II wash er juror. Leave
it to any man in the house (hic). Was
drawn on the first panel (hic) and chal.
lenged (hic)." U1
Bounce him." "He's fraud!' "Put
him out" and other expressions were
heard. In a second the fellow was alone
Those who moment before were sound
ing his praises were now eager to string
him up with Guiteau. He was led to
the door, placed in cab, and as it rolled
off, the occupant was heard to humble:
Purity good-good--joke. Got full for
nothin (hic)." a.F
