Too SLOW.

A music teacher who lives in a small
town in central Ohio tells a delicious
story, which goes to show what unap-
preciative ears classical music sometimes
falls on, when the owners of the ears
think that nothing is good music unless
it is fast and lively" The incident oc-
cured during a concert given by August
Wilhelmj the great German violinist
Wilhelmj, as is known by musicians,
particularly excels in rendering andante
or adagio movements, containing much
pathos and deep feeling.
The proprietor of the town hall had
heard of the great artist, and although
he had no more idea of what the per-
formance of solo violinist of the first
rank would be than he had of the pres
ent system of political economy in the
planet Mars, he thought it would be a
paying speculation to engage the great
violinist for concert. and accordingly
did so at price which looked ruinous to
his townsmen.
The attendance on the night of the
concert proved, unfortunately, that the
musical culture Of the place was not suf-
ficiently advanced to fill the house, for
there was only a handful of people in
the hall at 8 o'clock, the time for COM
mencing the concert.
The music teacher who tells the story
arrived after the concert commenced.
He found the manager taking tickets at
the door.
''Well, Jim," he asked, "how's it 60
ing?'
The manager looked up with an air of
deep detection. He said nothing, but
plucking his friends sleeve he led him
to the door of the hall and
looked in. On the stage stood Wilhelmj
with all the classic repose of statue.
He was playing soulful adagio. AS he
drew his bow slowly across the strings
he drew forth tones which seemed
almost like melodious sobs in their
sweet pathos His great lemon colored
Stradivarius violin, ''the Messiah"
seemed to sing almost like thing of
life. The few people who were there
sat entranced and breathless drinking :
in the matchless tones.
"Well, you see for yourself, prof, -"
said the manager to the music teacher
"T'm paying that chap $500 for this con-
cert, and lookee how slow he's playin."

Little Known About Birds.

For nine successive summers pair Of
red wings built at the base of a button
bush, and year after year more and more
nests were made until every spot was oc-
cupied for many rod around. In Au-
gust the clan gathered, and, as little
flock that seemed scattered by day, but
reassembled at sunset these birds were
a feature of the meadow for two weeks
or more, then they disappeared. Inever
saw them unite with "a passing flock, but
this is what they did. Suggestive as is
every flock of BIRDS we really know but
little about them. No naturalists has yet
fathomed the mystery of bird life, and
bird slaughter has accomplished nothing.

Household Deodorizers,

cotton or cotton rags are also valuable
for this purpose. Aromatic vinegar and
Compton are both excellent deodorizers.
and may be sprinkled freely in sick
room. The practice of some nurses who
use cologne water, sprinkling it freely
through the room by means of an atom
izer, is very commendable, as it proves
grateful and refreshing to patient. A
pail of clean cold water set in newly
painted rooms is said to have neutral
fzing effect on the poisonous odor given
out by new lead paint. 1t is safer, how
ever, not to occupy such a room until it
has become thoroughly disinfected and
deodorized by pure fresh air. One of
the simplest and safest deodorizers to
use about the house is Chords Of lime.
Care should be taken to buy only the
best quality and to purchase it only of
thoroughly trustworthy chemist or drug
gist. Even fresh whitewash is power
full purifier and disinfectanJ of the at
mosphere, and for that reason the cellar
and the outbuildings, where there is any
danger of poison from decaying animal
orvegetable matter, should be frequently
whitewashed.- d.-New York Tribune.

The Beauties of Gibraltar.

Perhaps ono Of the least visited Of the
long famous and noted places in Europe
is the rock Of Gibraltar; yet, according
to the account of traveller who recently
fingered there few hours on her way
from Egypt to England, it must be a
veritable winter paradise. She writes:
Beyond the barracks are the gardens,
full of palms and acacias and tropical
looking trees, and with arum lilies. roses
and the heliotrope In full bloom. We
sat down by fountain and baeked in
the sun, and enjoyed the fragrance and
greenness and blue sky, then returned to
the town and visited several shops in
quest of a shady hat to protect one
against the sun, which has been literally
scorching on board ship. Such an article
costs about ten times as much as m Eng
land. We went On to the fruit market
and bought some bananas, the sellers
lavishly squeezing open Tangier oranges
fresh picked from the trees for Us to eat,
apparently careless whether we bought
or not. But it is not all sunshine, and
even in the Mediterranean plenty Of
warm wraps are necessary. Even after
scorching day, as soon as the sun goes
down, it gets bitterly cold when the east
wind rises and the deck gets drenched
with dew; but the jewel bedecked
heavens, with Venus and Jupiter like
small moons making broad pathways of
light in the sea, are sufficient reward for
those Of us who brave the cold On deck. J"

No possibility of warfare seems to
escape the attention of the German mil
itary authorities. After the recent
heavy storms which prevailed in Prus-
STA it occurred to them to try what effect
the projectile of the new rife may have
on masses of snow. Intrenchments
were made, some five feet high and six
feet thick, behind which targets were
placed to represent an enemy. The fir
ing party, stationed 1900 feet from the
works, pierced them through and
through, as was proved by the numer-
GUS holes found in the targets behind
them. Similar experiments have been
made in Russia. In this case the in
trenchments were twenty-five feet in
thickness, and are said to have kept off
the bullets fred against the marks in
the rear of them. It will readily be
seen from this that unless ample time
and plenty of men are at command SHOW
is not of much value for fortifying mill
tary positions against musketry fire.

CLEYELANp,s LETTER.

Mr.. Cleveland, in his letter which was
made public yesterday, evidently seeks
to put his candidacy on as different a
basis from Hills as possible. All the way
through it great stress is laid upon the
point that while he is not, and will not
be, candidate in the sense of seeking
the nomination, he will sacrifice himself
if his party deems it necessary for the
good of his country. If his party insists
upon it he will become the Moses to lead
them out of the wilderness. The letter
will find great favor, no doubt, with
what is known as the better element, and
they will see in it new reason for es-
pousing his cause and working for dele
gates in his interest.
1t will not be difficult, however, for
those who have been accustomed to look
upon Cleveland as quite as anxious to
secure the nomination as Hill, and as
quite as selfish as the latter, to discover
in this letter proof of the correctness of
their views. Apparent Indifference
oftentimes is only form self seeking,
and this is the construction Cleveland
enemies are likely to put upon the indif-
ference expressed in his letter. While
his friends will hail it as evidence of I'M
selfshness and absence of self seeking,
his enemies will have no great difficulty
in making .ort a plausible case of quite
the reverse. They will say that it is
merely shewd device to stimulate to
greater activity the elements of his party
that are at work for him already, and
that this was its real purpose and intent.
They will interpret it as bid for the
nomination, different from Hills, simply
because the notions of the class to which
he is appealing and upon which he must
rely are different from Hills. The ex-
Governors crowd will be sure to claim
that the spirit, of self-sacrifce which
pervades the latter is nothing but hypoc-
risy. and his assertions that he does not
seek the Office mere false pretences
shrewdly designed to flatter the Mug
wump idea that the Office should seek
the man and not the man the Office.
The principal effect of the letter will, we
imagine, be to intensity the bitterness
already existing between the Cleveland
and the Hill factions, and increase the
energy which each is putting into the

Undoubtedly the principal reason why
Mr.. F. o. Beal was not elected Mayor of
Bangor was his opposition to the lease of
the Bangor & Piscataquis to the Bangor
G. Aroostook. That was tho great ques-
ton in the election, and it overshadowed
to large extent any question of party
politics. 1t was true of course that no
matter who was elected Mayor, whether
an opponent or friend of the lease, if the
lease was carried the Mayor would be
obliged to execute it, yet it was only
natural that some Republicans who
favored the law should object to the
election of Mayor opposed to it and
vote accordingly. With the lease ques-
ton settled the Republicans ought to be
able to choose their candidate at the next
election without much trouble.
