HOW THEY REGISTER.
The Characteristics OF Men as shown
the Hotel Desk.

The CharaoteristIcs Of Men as shown at
the Hotel Desk.
There arc those that claim to read a
mans life, profession and condition by
glancing at his handwriting. This may be
a rather broad statement, but it is certain
the handwriting and the manner in which
1t is done may give at least a clue TO a
mans character. A hotel clerk thus talks
about what he has ston at the register:
Phil Sheridan never registers at all.
He walks up 10 the desk, greets the clerk
in friendly manner, and begins TO chat
with somebody. leaving his aide de camp
TO attend to the formalitics of registering
and selecting rooms. lie is sociable man.
and never stays long in his room, but
walks around great deal in the corridor.
Ben Butler never registers, either. lie
engages his room In advance and comes in
through the side door, going directly TO his
room. He Is rarely seen in the corridor.
Blaine and Conkling come to the hotel the
same way. There Is so much curiosity to
see these men that it would be annoying 10
them TO be surrounded by a crowd in the
corridor. Mr. Blaine, however, is very
sociable with the people in the office, and
often drops in TO talk with them. Mr..
Conkling never unbends that way. He is
naughty and reserved.
Gov. Hill used TO come to the desk in
quiet manner and sign his name in a very
small hand. He is without afiectation of
any kind-just plain everyday gentle
man without peculiarities. He does not
come 10 the office now, on account of the
crowds usually awaiting him.
Edwin Booth is q quiet, unassuming
man, too. lie walks up TO the desk and
waits patiently for the clerk 10 put the
register before him. If he knows the clerk
he bows and exchanges salutaiions pleas
antly, writes his name plainly, and goes TO
his room without appearing to be conscious
that he is attracting any attention. There
are actors who pose before the desk and
talk loudly, but he is not Of that kind.
Gen. Sherman is very sociable in his
peculiar way. When he comes here he
marches up to the desk, says 'Howd'e do, ,
and shakes hands first. Then he swings
the register around sideways to give his
long arms plenty Of room, and writes his
name with strong. sweeping movement.
When lie was in active service lie put the
General after his name, but now it is
simply w. I. Sherman"

Keeping the Calendar.

No doubt most people remember the
number Of days in any particular month
by recalling the rhymes which they learn.
ed at school. Another method is practiced
In Iceland, and It is so simple and ingen.
ious as q be worth knowing. MIR Met
calfe giges II in his book, 1.-The Oxonian
In Iceland"
Shut the fist, and let the knuckle Of the
fore finger represent January with rs
thirty-one days, and the depression between
that and the next knuckle will represent
February with its less number Of days.
And thus every month that corresponds TO
a knuclkle will be found 10 contain thirty
one days, and every month that cores
ponds to a depression a less number Of
days.
The little finger win represent July. and
beginning again with the fore finger
knuckle, Il stands for August. and from
this one goes on counting through the
months Of the year.

He Went Right In.


The average theatrical manager meets
some very queer requests for passes Per.
haps the queerest come from members
Of the profession" A manager thus tells
Of an experience he had while in Santa
Cruz:
He was at the door. when gloomy
young man slid close up 10 him and ad.
dressed him.
"Sayi"
"Well, what Is it?'
Dye pass de perfesh"
Yes. when we know them"
well, I'm wild Sherman's circus, WHAT'S
plsyin' here"
That's all right, my friend, but ! don't
know you"
Don't know mey' and the young man
sloped of disconsolately Presently he
approached again
"Say, amt yer goin' to let me ing"
Il guess not"
well, dats a blank OF note" And
again he reccdcd, but continued to hang
about. After the audience was all in and
the curtain up, the manager retreated to
the treasurer's Office. a large room, to
count up. Suddenly his calculations were
disturbed by whiz and a swish through
the air. The member Of "de perfesh"
came sliding across the floor aud ended up
with a magnificent. split" with his legs
fat on the floor and pointing In opposite
directions lie looked up triumphantly At
the amazed manager and said:
Now dye b'lecve belongs to de per.
The manager was conquered. Here.
young ieller, you go right in." And lie
went
