4 Curious Book Crank.

Perhaps the most curious BUYER of
books in Washington is a wealthy crank
who seems to be half-lunatic, but who
understands the value of books perfect
", and who bids high prices for what
he wants. have often seen him about
the auction-room, big man with
round, bullet head, and little, low
derby hat, several sizes too small for
him, placed on the front of it and down
so as to almost hide his eyes. The back
of his neck is painted black, and his big
cheeks show the suspicion of rouge. He
wears sack-coat with sleeves several
sizes too large for him, and he has very
small hands and feet. He is proud of
these hands, and the cuffs which sur
round them are always of the whitest,
and they are so large that he can pull
his hands up into them out of sight.
His shoulders are padded out so that
they become deformity, and where the
sleeves fall at the end of the shoulders
they hang in hollow, limp wrinkle, as
though the coat was hung on n wire
frame other than on human being.
He wears very small shoes, made like
those of lady, with the heel near the
middle of the foot, and he walks neces-
sarily in mincing way At the book
auctions he always has book in his
hand, and while the sale is not in pro-
gress he is reading He speaks to no
one, and seems TO be sort of a misan-
thrope. could tell you his name, but
il will suffice to say that he is son of
wealthy parents, who have left him
fortune so tied up that he gets only the
income, which, by the way, is large
amount, and is paid to him regularly.
