KNOWN BY HIS MUSIC.
A Great Composer Whose Face Was
Little known.


Signor Arditi, the veteran conductor
of Italian opera, seems to be man OF
ready wit, to judge from an anecdote in
his "Reminiscences"
On one Of his American tours he re-
ceived one day a check from his mana
ger. 1t was already near the expiration
of banking hours, and having need OF
the money, he jumped into a carriage
and drove hastily to the bank. On hand
ing the check to the teller, however, he
was met by the statement that it would
be necessary for him to be identified.
But don't you know me?" asked the
musician 81 am Signor Arditi.'
The teller still shook his head. He
was sorry, and all that, but he couldn't
pay out money without an identifica-
ton. A sudden idea came to Arditi.
''Do you ever 90 10 ~. e.,era?" he in
quired.
eyes, often, '~was the teller's reply.
"Well, then, see harA." and at the
word Signor Arditi turned his back
upon the teller and took off his hat, ex-
posing his bald head, with the sight of
which all opera goers had reason to be
familiar. Don't you know me now?"
A smile spread over the teller's face.
"Yes," he said, you are Signor Arditi.' y
And with that he handed forth the
money.-Youth's Companion.

LINCOLN'S BIRTHPLACE.
A Rude Log Cabin in the WiIds of
Nentucky.


Kentucky.
Abraham Lincoln, our great war preSi-
dent, was born in LarUe county, Ken
lucky, in rude little log cabin. This
cabin has recently been restored, and,
SO far as possible, made exactly as it
was So years ago, when a little baby
boy was born to Thomas and Nancy
Lincoln, or 'Linkhorn,' as the name
was then spelled-humble Settlers -
who had moved to the neighborhood
from Washington county four years be-
fore.
The few living people who remember
Thomas Lincoln, the father, say that he
was rather improvident man, not
working long at any one thing. He was
hard worker, but was poor manager;
and the little family was often without
more than the simplest necessaries of
life. Thomas Lincoln cleared few
acres around his cabin, and raised a
small crop of corn and grain Then he
became a carpenter and tinker, work
ing at such odd jobs as he could find
among the pioneer neighbors. He was
away at work at the time Abraham was
born.
The neighbors heard that Mrs. Lin
coin was in the cabin all alone with the
little baby, and had little to eat except
corn and potatoes. They at once vis-
tied the Lincoln cabin, taking such deli
cacies as their houses afforded. The fa-
ther returned in a few days: and the
baby was named Abraham Lincoln,
after his grandfather, who had been
killed by the Indians when Thomas Lin
coin was a little bOy.-George H. Yeno-

Home is the residence, not only of the

for husband and wife to toll smilingly

Oscar Wilde accepted with better grace
the knowledge of Fields public imperson-

During this insouciant period OF Field s

occasion, in consequence of fattering Of

stage. At other times he was sorely
