TANTRUM
He Makes an Explanation
of His Conduct.
Dreaded the Effect of a Girls Smile
and Fan on His Concert
Performers.

Ugo TalbO, the tenor singer. who took
the new departure on Wednesday night of
commanding one of his audience to leave
the loom. because lie imagined she had
smiled while he was "chorIIing" senti-
mental ditty. awoke about noon yesterday
morning, quite surprised to find himself
famous.
During his dreams his Imagination ap-
peared to have played havoc with the
events of the evening before. Miss
Rochets little ivory and gauze fan, for in
stance, had assumed Grohdingnagian pro-
PORTIONS. The tenor assured a newspaper
representative that it was of enormous
size. aud that its fell swoop as it cleft the
air made the dreamy, poetic frame of mind
necessary for singing the Message" a
physical impOssi bility.
The young lady's tlmid half smile also
seemed in Mr.. Talbo's imagin alton 10 have
been mRgnitied into full-DloWn cresceudo
OF hooking laughter. 1t was not on his
own account. the touchy tenor declared,
that he resented the unseemly mirtb,
which, by the way, existed only in his own
Imagination. For himself. however, he
implied yesterday he could have horne t
with Christian meekness, but he dreaded
Its effect upon the performers who were
to follow.
Ii 1albo's imagination gave Brobding-
Dagian proportions TO a little fan and a
pretty young girls smile when he woke up
yesterday morning, on the other hand 1t
dwarfed his own conduct into more than
Lillipuiian dimensions. He did not
shout, he did not insult and humiiata
a well bred young lady who had
paid dollar to hear his concert He be-
haved according to what, in his ethics, is
quite a geDtlemaDly manner. He merely
requested the young lady to leave the
ROOM" As for his manner of making the
request-wel, Ugo TalbO's story on that
point shows that the brilliancy of his
Imagination when he woke np Yesterday
morning was something too gorgeous for
words to describe.
Another point that Talbo made in his
self-defense yesterday was that he did not
know what had become of the she kels
that had resulted from the concert. The
fact is that Robert" the sexton aud one
of the pillars of local church, had kindly
undertaken to be dOorkeeper, and he had
handed everything taken in 10 Frank
Mitchell. one of the performers, who
promised TO keep the money ill Talbo
wanted it,
OF course the money was as safe as If it
had been Ia bank, but the tenor's imagin-
alton had coDjured up pictures of rust and
moths and all sorts of enemies attack
ing it.
Rev. George E. Walk entirely confirmed
the story published in yesterdays CALL,
but he added that If he had been the young
lady's father he would haye inflicted con-
dign punishment on Ugo Talbo.

The principa address of the evening

HE'S GLAD OF 1T.
SutrO Wants to Go Before
the Grand Jury.
He Says He Will Call for the Big
Corporations CASH Books
for Examination.

at is quite true that have been sum-
moned to appear before the Grand Jury
and tell all know about the Supervisors
and what they demand for favors granted
to corporations" said AdOlph Sutro yester-
been served upon him at the instance of
District Attorney Barnes.
1T IS the very thing l wanted, and /
and all of US who are interested in the re-
demption of the city from the clutches of
the corporations will have lots of fun out
of it before we get through, even if we
dcn'; do much business" lie went on.
Il take the Grand Jury to mean lust
what it says. 1t wants information as to
what moneys are paid for franchises and
other favors, and am going to point the
way by which II can get II. The knowl-
edge that l have is the common knowi.
edge OF every body who keeps his eyes
and ears open; that the water company.
for instance, pays very literally in order
that the Supervisors may not see tit to Gu.
down toe water rates.
81 shall call for the books of that COM
panY aud have them exported. We want
TO know, and We have a right to know,
just what they do with all their money.
Now, when it comes to taking me up
for the language reported in a morning
paper as having been used by my, that is
all buncombe.
"When man ia quoted by reporter il
seldom happens that ali he saws is taken
down. That was the case in this instance.
for the fact is that the Supervisors granted
me franchise without eXacting one dol
lar from me; in fact, L handed in a petit
ton and never spoke to any of the Super
yisors about 1t, and it passed unanimous ly.
'But l am inclined to believe that IL is
wholly within the province of the Grand
Jury TO demand books and apers OF the
corporations having these valuable fran
cnises. At any rate l shall call for them,
and be greatly surniised If they do not
reveal some interesting things-the book
not only OF the water company but the
railroad company and other corporations"

in Maple Hall. Palace Hotel. last evening
by Miss Hat lie Nathan, talented young

The affair was conducted under the man.
agement of Philip Hastings, and the
twelve selections com posing the pro-
gramme were calculated to give the re-

talent.
She lost none of the many opportuni-
ties afforded her and demon strated her
ability To render the most difficult of prose
ana poetry, with full understanding of
the requirements of each. Her dialect Sc
lecti0ns were excellent, especially in the
quaint and catchy compositions of James
WhlicOmb Riley. four OF which were on
the programme. The mercy speech from

A handy thing in kitchen is a
good sized slate. So often things
that are quite necessary are for
gotten because they were not noted
down, and serious annoyance is &C.
casioned by their absence. A slate
only costs 10 cents. 1t can be hung
above the kitchen table by a long
string and the pencil can be attach
ed by another. These need not be
removed from the wall at any time,
but can be hung SO as to be used
easily. AS soon as something is
discovered lacking it should be put
down.
Anything unusual that is to be
done, and yet might be forgotten,
can also be put on the slate. You
will be surprised to find how many
steps and 'EOh! I forgots' " it will
save in a day. 1t is better than

can take your hands out ofthe dish

ianed fat custard and pumpkin pies

of this and fasten with good cement.
1t will take two or three days to
dry. Of course, it must be painted
with the rest. This makes a cheap
stand, but if the maker has bit of
taste, it is capable of handsome
treatment, and will give satisfaction
for small outlay. Another stand
which can be made just as pretty,
but is smaller, utilizes an old two
gallon jar, one of the tall, slender
kind.

Kitchen Uses of the Whisk Broom.
CheeseclOth Glass TOweling.

''Nothing," says a woman whose
housewifely skill and experience
are coupled with an authoritative
knowledge of sanitation, ''makes a
better dishcloth than no cloth at all,
but a whisk broom. The practice
of using any old rag, an old stock
ing cut open, which is traditional
country cloth, or any similar thing
in sinks is well known to be foolish.
Bits wear off and become added
clogs to the drain pipes. If cloths
must be had, those of coarse mesh,
loosely knitted from a tightly woven
cord, are the best of the kind. A
broom, however, is very much
better. Select a short stubby one
and a trial will show its superiority.
To scrape the bottom of sauce pans
and pots there is nothing so good.
The wire cloth is not so clearly;
bits of food will get in it's interstices
and will not easily get out, but
nothing clings long to a whisk.
Hold it under the faucet for a
moment after using, and it is quick

always two of these brooms; one

dishes, the other for metal ware.
Silver and glass are not washed

washing need no dishcloth.
