Trials OF the Pretty Cashier.

From the Kansas City Times.
Would you like to 90 to the theater to-
night?'
No. thank you"
''Ah, this is Charley's night, suppose?"
Sir! 81
Then the attractive brunette who presides az
the cashiers desk at a large Chestnut street
store, the customers of which are mainly mem
bers OF the sterner sex, looked at herself in the
mirror and pushed a refractory bang into place
as the crushed dude with the theater tickets
opened the door and let himself out into the
cold, cruel world. Then she threw a bewitch-
ing smile at the next customer, and when he
wanted to know if she got many theater invita-
tIons she answered:
"Oh, lots of them. But prefer to select
my own company. One can't be too careful,
you know. Why, girl who once worked here
actually elOped, SO I've been told, 756 times SO
far. l wonder why 1t Is that so many men
bother me with all sorts OF questions One
man, VINO looked sonewh0 sensible, asked me
not long ago If / knew of good cook. Then
a handsome drummer, with such q nice mus
tache, asked me If the pretty cashier in the
biggest dining room IN New York Was my sis
ter. But don't mind the young fellows. They
will hirt and talk nonsense whenever they get
show. Sometimes it's hard work TO get rid
of our pennies, but when a particularly sus-
ceptible Johnnie appears then / get in my

Of tact. The old men bring me a novel once in
awhile, usually by Laura Jean Libbey or some
such crank, and 1 give them to the boys that
work here.
Life is too short to read such trash. Then
the old chaps want to tell me their troubles,
and if go out shopping for a minute SO
some one is sure to think it's proper to speak
TO me simply because give him his change at
the store. Isn't it ridiculous"
Il suppose you get many offers Of"
Marriage" interrupted the cashier. ''Oh,
not many, considering. The boys nowadays don't
seem to take kindly to that sort Of thing. They
say it's too hard to lay by any money They
put all their money ON their bac ks or else loaf
around the leading saloons. know all about

So the interested listener withdrew with
great ideas Of the worldly wisdom Of some
Young women.

The Sarasate-D'Aibert Concert.

What Mr.. Henry E. Abbey does no generally
does we'll, and in bringing two such artists to
Washington as Pablo Sarasate, the violinist, and
Eugen D'Abert, the pianist, he. exceeds even
himself. Since Rubenstein and Wieniowski
there have not been in America such musicians
as these. and praise of them would seem to be
work OF supererogation. Sarasate is a
violinist unexcelled in all the world, and
though he tunes his strings to only the highest
measures, there is such grace and beauty and
soul in his music that even the simplest may
enjoy the divine harmonies of his wonderful
making. This is the real music, and only the
artist born can give it voice. What Sara
safe is to the violin his concert companion
D'Albert is almost, if not quite, TO the piano
A performer of marvellous technique, he is not
the less the interpreter Of music's deepest
meaning. Wherever these artists have ap-
peared they have won enthusiastic applause,
and the press is a unit IN its praise of their
work. In this city the best audience Washing
ton can furnish is promised, and already the
sale of seats at Droop's music store has gone
beyond 81 200 for the concert at Lincoln hall
on Thursday evening.

Earl Darniy's Son Is Poor.

One OF the genuine historic names Of Eng
land has come to grief, but only the grief Of
poverty, not of crime. Lord Clifton, eldest son
of Earl Darnly, was yesterday examined In the
bankruptcy court in London. The earl's peer
age is one of the really old titles that shine
conspicuously among the ruck of law lords and
Manchester magnates that crowd the pages Of
Debrett nowadays. He is the owner Of Cob
ham hall, an ancient baronial mansion, EN-.
bosomed IN the leafy county of Kent, the gar.
den OF England, and near the pretty village Of
that name. Lord Clifton is not by any means
dissipated young nobleman. On the contrary,
lie is devoted TO scientific and intellectual pur-
suits. being a member of the Geological So
ciety and the 0rnithologists' union His only
fault was poverty.

Another Pistol Carrier Fined.

Philip Williams, colored man, was in the Po-

loud and boisterous and carrying a weapon,
which he drew on Charles Kelly in Nathan
Browns saloon. He claimed to be working out
beyond Mount Pleasant and thought he needed
a pistol for his protection. Judge Miller, how
ever, said that carrying q pistol did not give a
working man a very good reputation, especially
when he draws it at the first provocation. Will
liams was fined $40 for being loud and bolster
GUS and $50 for carrying the pistol. Judge
Miller said he was sorry he could not send him
to Jail, for he wanted to break up this habit of
carrying weapons.

In days gone by to be deaf, dumb and blind

of modern inventions, when science has done
SO much for the improvement of the condition

Of the use of these three senses cannot enjoy
life is wrong one, according to Helen Keller,

tute for the blind in Boston. Some time ago
she made the acquaintance Of Albert Nolen, an
inmate of the American asylum in Hartford,
and on Christmas sent him long letter. She
speaks of the beauty Of Christmas tree, which
she has to realize by feeling; the fashionable
clothing that adorns the doll that Santa Claus
gave her for being good girl, and the thrilling
had read from beginning to end Little Albert

Cutting OFF Money For Use.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
A tall, black-whiskered man was leaning over
the desk at the Continental hotel last night
conversing with several friends. Pulling .
plethoric wallet from his vest pocket he took
therefrom a long sheet Of tive-dollar bills, Just
as they came from the Treasury department
His friend inquired what they were. "Only
advertisements" was the reply. They're
given away now with tea instead Of the usual
chromos." By this time there was quite Q
crowd around the black-whiskered man,
eagerly examining the bills. Some thought
they were genuine bills, while others, who had
never seen bills in this shape before, as there
was nearly yard Of them, really thought they
were advertisements aid would not have
bought the whole lot for Eve cents.
You're all Just like the fellow out In St
Louis. He was a clerk in q store, and when I
had made purchase asked him for q pair Of
shears and proceeded to cut of bill You
should have seen the mans eyes. They stood
out 90 that you could have knocked them Oh
with stick. The outcome of the matter was
that he refused to take them. Just at thsa
minute the proprietor came from the ofaos
and, seeing the status Of the case, discharged
the man, but, after had explained the case,
We all had q good laugh"
.'why do carry them in that way? Ieuess-

I have a friend, cashier In bank, and he lets
me have them. Let's adjourn and have B. and
