BE Wasn't at the Ball.

II a man goes up to Sol Smith Russell on a
matter Of business and says to him, ''Tel me
funny story" the comedian cannot think OF
a good one to save his hfe-he cannot be forced
into being funny. But, on the other hand, if
a man begins properly by telling a story him
self, thereby giving Russell a chance to say
THAT reminds me-" etc., he viii start in and
tell a story per minute for sixty minutes
without break-and they viii all be good
stories, too, sans chestnuts. This is the way
IN which he was induced to tell story yes
terday. He said that Cecil Clay, the exceed
ingly tall and English husband of the charm
ing Rosina Vokes, was complaining about
the towns embraced in what is known as the
Crawford circuit He pronounced them
very bad, and said: "In one place we went to
the theatre and found only the cornet player
in the orchestra After waiting awhile I
asked him where the other musicians were
oh, they're playing up at the ball. he re-
piled. then asked If he was to play for US
all alone, and he informed me that such was
the fact. Well said l, you must besa great
cornet player-you must be the greatest in
the world in your line. He fingered the keys
of his instrument, looked at me moment,
and then said: oh, no, I'm not much of a
cornet player; if was I'd be playing up at
the ball, too. '"--Chicago Herald

Invention of thu Nricroscope.

The invention Of the compound microscope,
consisting of two convex lenses placed one
above the other, naturally soon followed the
invention Of the telescope. Thesimple micro
scope was very early known, convex lens Of
rock crystal having been fou in the ruins
of Nineveh. The idea Of the more perfect
form of this instrument is said to have &C.
Cured to Hans Zansz, or to his son Zacharias
spectacle makers in Holland, about 1890
1t is very probable, however, that the same
idea was suggested, either accidentally on by
way of experiment, to others. Gaiileo, for
instance, the great italian astronomer, it is
said, had, before 1910, directed tube fitted
with lenses to the observation Cd small, near
objects. He stated, shortly after this date,
that he had been able to observe through q
lens the movements Of minute animals and
their organs Of sense.
In letter written in 1914 he says that he
has with his microscope seen and observed
flies as large as sheep, and that their bodies
were covered with hairs, and they had sharp
claws."-Youth's Companion.

A Washburn Game at Brainerd
Is Beaten by Public Sentiment.
Special to the Globe.
BRAINERD, Mimi. Jan. 12.-Attorney
OdelI, representing the Washburn com
mittee. arrived here from Minneapolis
this morning on an apparently urgent
mission in behalf of the Minneapolis
candidate. Mr.. Odell bore forms of
blank letters to which he desired to Sc
cure signatures, to be addressed to GER
tain members Of the legislature, and
had also form of petition. Some OF the
former he succeeded in getting obscure
persons to sign, and on the petition he
got few names before his visit was
generally known. But Immediately on
the discovery, the Sabin men jumped
into the field and in a short time had
hundreds of signers to Sabin's, lnclud-
ing nearly every business or prominent
man in Brainerd. Mr.. Odell was
disguised and left on the noon
train, supposedly for Little Falls,
but his racket was telegraphed
to the Sabin men there. The Brainerd
Dispatch, which was originally for
Washburn, came out last night for
S.,bin, and the only other Republican
paper in this part of the state and the
most influential, to-day is out for the
Saltwater man, and circulates also
regular Columbiad of anti-Washburn
matter too.
