FAREWELL TO THE CALLIOPE.
1t Will BE Hoard No More in the Streets
Its Vendors Banished.

H'OW We ChtcdNO -u0H.
In the downtown" streets yesterday
there was the usual clatter of horses and
trucks, and cars and people, and the
rumbling of a great city went on just as
it has every day for a week, but there
was missing one element of mighty noise.
1t finally dawned upon him who is hourly
in the streets that the innumerable cal
liope sellers and blowers had vanished.
Chief Hubbard had evidently had one
sounded close to his ears, and the Police
Department had come to the conclusion
that the calliope was nuisance. Orders
were issued Thursday morning to "chase"
the calliope merchants, and like the dew
before the sun they had fled before the
policeman.
The calliope-or this particular one
made its appearance on the streets five
days ago. In size and shape 1t much re-
! sembles the copies of the New Testament
| given out in the mission Sunday schools.
When blown upon it gave forth a full
octave OF noises. The noises came from
q series Of whistles from high-toned
sharp whistle to a deep-voiced long whis-
tie. The whistles were holes-like all
other whistles, bored into the book.
shaped block of wood. The poor and
lowly as well as the rich and mighty
could play upon these pipes for the re-
tail price was ten cents-a dime-a
tenth of dollar" To accept the pro-
nunciation of the merchants who sold
them the instrument was "Kal-le-ope "
When 1t made its appearance on Mon
day the musicians who played upon it got
no other music from it than the exercise
of the scale, and all along on Clark and
Madison and State streets, small boys
passed it through their mouths from side
to side like big slice of bread, and
caused it to utter walls of agony like ar
Ohio River steamboat
On Tuesday the musical ear could de.
tect amid its means and screeches at
tempts at popular airs.
On Wednesday three days practice
had transformed the calliope into New
York hand organ. and Pretty Fisher

and In the Cleaning" were in the air
But Tor the police interference the CALI
ope would Thursday have been giyinl

mother Of Orpheus struck the town OF
Monday she would no doubt have raiseC
, such a rumpus over the pronunciation o
her name that the calliope business
would have been nipped in the bud.

Charity and Low-Neck Gowns.


AS she is German Princess the queen of
Sweden, of course, attaches great importance
TO etiquet. At the same time her deep desire
to relieve poverty Of every kind prompts her
to favor what Carter calls "the sImplifcation
of life" Sometimes the conflict between
these two interests leads to funny incidents.
For example, on one occasion the queen was
told that some ladies did not care to be pre-
sented at court on account OF the great ex-
pense incurred on this occasion This was a
revelation TO the queen, and thought struck
her.
"Well,n she exclaimed sat my next draw

HOW TO CARVE A TURKEY.
Study These Points Before Your Christ.
mas Dinner Is Ready.
h MS,p

IRON me NeD york W0Nd'
Very few heads of families or members
of the household in any capacity can
carve a turkey in a truly scientific style.
1t has been claimed that carving is an
art, but there is little doubt that few
points on the dissection of a fowl well
studied and thoroughly digested will 90
a goodly distance towardslmaking nov
ice an expert. Here are some points on
how to carve boiled turkey which is as
good an illustration as can be given
The legs of boiled fowl always bend
inward and tuck into the belly, but, be.
fore it is put upon the table, the skewer
by which they are secured ought to be
removed. The fowl should be laid on
the carver's plate, and the joints, as they
are cut off, placed on the dish. Intaking
off the wing the joint only must be di-
vided with the knife, for by lifting up
the pinion of the wing with the fork
and then drawing it toward the legs, the
muscles will separate in much better
form than you can effect by cutting with
knife. Next place the knife between
the leg and body and cut to the bone;
turn the leg back with the fork, and the
joint will give way if the fowl is young
and well done.
The merry thought is taken out when
the legs and wings are all removed; the
neck bones are taken off by putting in the
knife and pressing It under the long,
broad part Of the bone; then lift the neck
