Examples OF Prodigious Memory.
Temple Bar.

mp D1l
A conductor must nave a prodigious mu-
steal memory If he an, as Herr Richter usu-
ally does, conduct such a score by heart,
never forgetting to beckon to any instrument
at the very second wanted. l say a pro-
digious musical memory because the faculty
OF remembering is by no meaus a general,
but a special one. One man may, as Richter
for instance, know a number of scores by
heart, another may be able to keep an in
credible number Of figures in his remem-
brance, and not be able to retain the smallest
musical motif. The Emperor Napoleon Ill,
who never forgot a man he had once spoken
to, could so little remember a musical theme
that you might have played the same thing
twice over to him and given it two different
names, and he never would nave known it.
An example of the most astounding mem
DRY is the winner OF the national chess tour
nament, Mr.. Zuckerfort. He is capable not
only of playing a game of chess by heart, i.
e., without ever looking at his board, but be-
ing told his adversary's move, instantly re-
plying with his countermove and keeping the
position, however altered, in his head; but
further, he played sixteen games at the same
time in the same way, that is to say, before
each of sixteen tables sat a player with a
board, and they informed him after each
other OF their respective moves; he replied
and never COMPOUNDED one position with an
other, never made a false move, but twice de-
tected, where on purpose false moves were
made to test him, the wrong direction. He
performed an especially curious feat in the
house Of a friend where there was a whist
party, playing a game Of chess by heart with
some one in the adjoining room, and when
the cards for whist were dealt, he looked once
through his cards then put them away, and
each time his turn came he mentioned the
card he wished to play. all the while %continu-
ing his chess game, and never keeping either
his chess or his whist partner waiting one
minute for the necessary move.

Inter Ocean "Curbstone Crayons." "
My friend stopped to shake hands with a
stole in a SLOUGH hat, taking the rain as it
came, but this time l retained the umbrella.
Returning to shelter, he said: THAT man is
a character. He lives down the Illinois Cen
tral about 100 miles, and is pretty well Off, as
they say there. The last time he was in Chi
cago there were freshets throughout the
state, and all the streams were very high.
On his return home his neighbors asked him
how the lake was, and he said with great
positiyeness, Booming. The rains filed her
plumb full, and the water off by the crib was
ten feet higher than 1 ever saw it before
And the worst of it was his remark was
quoted in the district school for months
after to prove that the waters in Lake
Michigan went up and down with the auctu-
atlng water courses
