COLLECTING A BAD BILL.
The Method Taken by a Tailor to Get
 His Money.

The Method Taken by Tailor to Get His Money.
 A Chicago tailor has devised a new way to collect old debts. A customer, who is employed in his fathers office on the board of trade, has owed a bill of forty-five dollars for several months. Statements of the indebtedness and de- mands for payment have been made once or twice a week since Thanlzsgiv- ing, with no effect, and the young mans father and mother have been appealed to in vain. It was useless to sue, for the debtor isn't worth a dollar. The case looked hopeless
 But the tailor is a very foxy indi- vidual. He happened to learn that the young man was desperately in love with pretty girl and that he spent certain evenings in every week at her house. On one of these evenings the tailor appeared at the young lady's residence and inquired for his debtor. The youth came into the hall to meet him, and when he saw the tailor he almost fainted away. The tailor came out hat-footed and swore that the bill
 
 would raise row, so that the young lady would be informed how matters stood. The young man, however, proved conclusively that he had only one dollar and forty-fve cents on his person, and the tailor finally relented and left. Another month passed and still the bill remained unpaid. There upon the tailor sent the statement to the young lady and by the same mail he notified his debtor of his proceeding. The young lady informed her admirer that she could not love man who didn't pay his debts, and, further, that if he could not show her a receipt for the bill within six days he needn't come to see her any more. There was a terrific storm at the tailor's shop, but the bill was paid. The young lady has the receipt.

A RARE VIOLIN.
It Antedates the Declaration of Inde-
 pendence and Has History.

It Antedates the Declaration of Inde-
 pendence and Has History.
 Probably one of the oldest and most valuable viOlins to be found on Long Island is owned by Prof. George Hew- mann, the wcll-knOwn musician, whose country residence is in the picturesque north side village of Huntington, says the New York Commercial Advertiser The instrument is of Italian make and Mr. Hewmann thinks it is the only one of it's kind in this country.
 According to the stamp on the inside of the top of the instrument it was made by David Tichler in 17G7. The present owner of the violin bought it from a friend named Horatio Benson, whose home was at Syosett, L. l., in 1861. MT. Benson was a talented musician and played in theaters in this city after coming to this country in 1900. Benson sought seclusion at Syosett in his old age and while he was there MT. Hew- mann came into possession of the vio- lin
 Soon after receiving the instrument from Benson Mir. Hewnann sent it to Strodel, in this city, to be repaired. It was not until then that the fact of it's ancient manufacture became known to it's owner, for, on taking it apart, Strodel found the makers name on the inside inscribed in quaint Roman letters, and the year 17G7.
 Mir. Hewmann has often received flat tering offers for his violin. Not only have these offers come from curiosity hunters, but from some of the leading musicians of the present day.
 The instrument is indeed handsome one and possesses a tone of rare rich ness, being fairly loud but entirely de- void of harshness. The sweet strains of the old instrument have been heard on both continents and in nearly every city in the old and new world.

INSIST ON BEING CHAPERoNED.
How Young Men Who Are Taken to Leap
 Year Parties Behave.

How Young Men Who Are Taken to Leap Year Parties Behave.
 Some of the leap year parties seem to have been carried on or off with eXcep- tional spirit. It has been Imaginable, for instance, the way in which the men have insisted upon being chaperoned, and young women have called in car riages to accompany gay bachelors, who were carefully protected by their moth CTS, to the scene of festivities. One in- inveterate joker gave perhaps hint to the belles of the sort of chaperons that would be most acceptable when he came into the parlor to receive his fair escort, followed by an elderly aunt who is deaf as post and is, besides, almost blind. This same man, says the New York Times, was wrapped in q white opera cloak cut with an absurd resem- blance to a dress suit ulster; he carried a bouquct of flowers and wore band of ribbon and bow on his hair. When he appeared from the dressing room after laying aside his ambiguous wrap it was seen that the sleeves of his coat had been taken out and elbow sleeves of pink silk and lace substituted, which, met by long pink kid gloves, effectually "brightened" his toilet and added to his nondescript appearance.
 At another leap-year party, held just before Lent began, the young women danced the cotillon with white silk crush hats under their arms. At the same affair a young footman in cap and apron did duty in the mems dressing room, which was, besides, plentifully provided with powder and rouge boxes, hairpins, tray of bonbons and az gressive bottles of cologne and extracts. When the ladies doffed their outside gear the actual maid wore with her reg ulation petticoats a livery jacket and vest and carried a whisk broom as a sort of badge of office. The room was bereft of it's usual feminine fripperies, md in their place were suggestively set put tobacco, pipes and cigars, with de- canters of cognac and a huge fancy bowl filled with cloves

VISIBLE ONLY AT NIGHT.
The Singular ThiIn of a WelI-tO-DO Yer
 mont Woman.

The Singular VhiIn of a Wen-tO-DO Yer
 mont Woman.
 A singular character residing near Irasburg, Vt., is said to have allowed no human being to look upon her dur ing the day for nearly forty years. She goes by the name of Ann Dennis says the Philadelphia Times, and is said to have been the daughter of a well-t0-do farmer, and that she lost her mind, or, at any rate, took up her singular mode of life after the death of her mother. whom she accidentally killed by an overdose of some opiate. She lives in q small, substantial One-roomed cabin about six miles from the town, and re- mains tightly shut up during the day. and ventures out only on the darkest nights, when she will walk into town and transact such business as she may have, but cannot be induced to enter a room lighted up save very dimly, and then only when thicl1ly yelled.
 As she has some little money left her by her father, the tradesmcn all humor this singularity of hers, though several attempts have been made to get her to show herself in the light, but however well planned the strategy it has never succeeded. She converses intclligcntly enough when she wants to, and many deny that her mind is at ell affected be- yond a little harmless ccccntricity. Those who remember her in her youth say that she was an unusually pretty, attractive girl, and well educated. She lives quite alone with nothing living to keep her company.
