"Where are you from ?" A Missourian

friend who is well known about town.
They were overtaken by ex-Congress-

from beyond the Mississippi was intro
duced to the retired statesman. From

said mechanically and just to fill in.
The stranger Immediately began to
talk about the capital, affecting not to
have heard the question.

first making the inquiry.

Society and Actors.

Col lngersoll in the New York Mirror
"What do you think of treatment of
the actor by society in his social rela-
tons 90
"For a good many years the basis Of
society has been the dollar. Only few
years ago all literary men were ostra-
cised because they had no money; Meth
er did they have reading public. If
any man produced book he had to
find patron-some titled donkey, some
landed lubber, in whose honor he
could print few we'll turned lines on
the fly-leaf. If you wish to know the
degradation of literature read the dedi-
cation written by Lord Bacon to James
l., in which he puts him beyond all
Kings, living or dead-beyond Caesar
and Marcus Aurelius. In those days a
literary man was servant, a hack. He
lived In Grub Street. He was only one
degree above the sturdy vagrant and
the escaped convict. Why was this
He had no money and he lived in an
age when money was the foundation OF
responsibility.
LET me give you another instance:
Mozart, whose brain was fountain of
melody, was forced to eat at table with
coachmen, with footmen and solutions.
He was simply servant who was COM
manded to make music for pudding
headed bishop. The same was true Of
the great painters and of almost all 9TH
er men who rendered the world beau
tiful bv art and who enriched the Ian
guages of mankind The basis of re-
spectability was the dollar. Now that
the literary man has an intelligent pub
lie he cares nothing for the ignorant pa
iron.
''The literary man makes money.
The world is becoming civilized and the
literary man stands high. In England.
however, if Charles Darwin had been
invited to dinner and there had been
present some sprig of nobility, some
titled vessel holding the germs of hered-
itary disease, Darwin would have been
compelled to occupy q place beneath him.
But | have hopes even for England,
The same is true of the artist The
man who can now paint a picture for
which he receives from $1,000 to $50
600 is necessarily respectable. The ac-
tor who may realize from ST 900 to 81, 900
a night, or even more, is welcomed in
the stupidest and richest society. So
with the ringers and with all others who
instruct and amuse mankind. MANY
people imagine that he who amuses
them must be lower than them. This,
however is hardly possible.
81 believe in the aristocracv of brain
and heart; in the aristocracy of intelli-
gence and goodness, and not only ap-
preciate but admire the great actor,
the great painter, the great sculptor,
the marvellous singer. In other words,
/ admire all people who tend to make
this life richer, who give an additional
thought to this poor world.P

DIR. Mary Walker Makes Trouble.
From the New York Grapbic.

From the New York Graphic
DR.. Mary Walker struck terror the

fact that women physicians, especially

week, and going into the ladies' dress

A Case of Hard Luck.
From the Washington Star.

Manager Brown, of the Witherald &
Brown Rolling Mill, at Findlay, o.,
thinks that luck is dead against him.
He was the victim of most peculiar ac-
cident We terday. He drew 5000 in bills
from the bank, and placing the package
in an outside pocket of bis coat started
out the railroad track to walk to his
mill. A train passed him, and from the
smokestack of the engine spark of fire
was thrown into his pocket, alighting
upon the package of money, causing it
through the center of the bills, leaving
only the two ends of each bill uncon-
sumed. 1t is the opinion of bank Off
cials that enough of the money remains
to be redeemed in bills.
