,a1slitnry salute. in europe.

The military salute required in al
most all civilized countries is nearly
the same. Perhaps in Germany, how
ever, the regulations are somewhat
more stringent. A soldier on meeting
the emperor has to stand still, face
about and remain with hand raised for
from twelve to twenty PAGES before
his majesty approaches and for the
same distance after he has passed. In
Belgium an o1ncer has to do the same
thing for the king and subalterns for
generals, though ten PAGES only are
REQUIRED for the latter case. Soldiers
carrying anything so that their hands
are quite occupied salute with their
eyes-that is, they turn their heads in
the direction Of the person coming and
going. French officers raise their caps
to ehch other, but the privates do as
the privates in other armies do.-Lon-

a Mathe matlclnn Tries ~ Clenr Up
q DilmcultS ia Family Descent.
n It goes without saying that man
has two parents, four grandparents,
eight greatgrandparents, and so on, so
that II we so back say ten generations.
doubling ut each step, we have, 2,04s
ancestors. This sort of argument has
been used by superficial genealoglsts
to show that at the time Of William
tie Conqueror each of lis had more an
cestors than tho total Population of
ENGLAND, hence I'VE must each be de-
seendeh from every Ehgifsiiihan Of that
day. including the immortal William
himself. &
The absurdity OF this sort of rea-
sonfng has been pointed out by Prof.
Brooks, Of Johns Hopkins. lis I'M
mediate object Is to establish a point
in the theory Of evolution, but he con-
flutes all silly genealogists at the same
time. While it Is true that we do have
four grandparents, they need not be
four separate and distinct persons.
First cousins have not more than three
separate grandparents; II they are
doubly cousins they have but two.
Ses in the. tenth generation ones 2NiS
ancestors are. never 2,OlS separate per-
sons; they abound in duplicates" so
to speak, as every one knows who has
atf TIED to- trace his descent. not in one
lfnS butsinF all possible lines: These
duplicates abound especially in small
communities, whose Inhabitants have
intermarrled for years.
Besides this the lines from Il given
pair Of ancestors tend to become extinct
sooner or later, so, as ancestry is traced
back, the probability is that all the
persons living in given community
will be found to be descended, not
from all, but from a very few-perhaps
only one or two-of the inhabitants Of
the community as they We're centuries
ago. So instead of having all English
men of the year 1000 for our ancestors
the probability is that we are descend
ed from comparatively few Of them
the number may be technically many
thousands, but one individual does duty
for several scores, or even several hun
dreds, of these, the lines of ancestry
converging upon him from many diff
ferent directions. This is what Prof
Brooks calls the conveyance OF an
cestry."

The Great Poderewsl,l is Coming.


 Paderewsld will give his piano recital at the Hyperion on Tuesday evening, December 3, and there is no doubt but what the theater will be crowded by his admirers.
 MT. Paderewski is a man of we'll disciplined mind. He has broadened his perceptions and strengthened his reasoning powers by tho study of many subjects not connected with music. His innate refinement has been polish ed by culture, and he has also made himself complete master of musical construction. He analyses a compost tion with the skill of a mathematician, but with the feeling of man of power tul musical temperament. That he goes through this analytical process with the smallest works in his reper- tory, as well as with the largest, Is abundantly demonstrated by the ex- quisite adjustment of his purely techni- cal effects. Not single measure Is ever read in a slovenly manner, but each one is treated with the most low ing care for its melodio outline, it's in- dividual rhythm, it's rhythmic relation to the remainder of the phrase, and it's office as an element in the compost tion as a whole. No matter how rapid or mechanically difficult the passage, the result of MT Paderewski's private study as revealed to his hearers is manifested in this remarkable insist ence upon the artistic relations of the thousands of tones in a composition, coupled with a mastery of tone color, which preserves at all times the vocal Illusion. And behind all this lies a mental grasp of the organic unity of the musical work which gives to us a symmetrical and satisfying interpre- tation. In tone color and exquisite gradations of touch MT. Paderewski is without a question the greatest mas ter of the keyboard ever known to the world

Postmaster Beach yesterday received a letter from the secretary of the Asso- ciation of First and Second Class Post masters of Massachusetts regarding the formation of a similar association in this state.
