TALMA AND NAPOLEON

Talma was standing at a corner, on of an immense crowd that thronged the
 streets of Paris to see Napoleon drive
 by in state.
 DO you see that little man there?'' he said to a friend at his side, pointing as he spoke to the emperor in his car riage.
 "Yes" replied his companion. "what
 signifies that?"
 "Well," answered Talma, "not so many years ago that same individual
 applied to me for position in my com pany. He was ambitious to be an ac- tor, and wished me to teach him the art of the stage. I discouraged him, as I could not see that he had any ability and told him that there was no hope for any other than genius in my profes- sion.
 "Ts there any hope in any calling?
 asked he flor the unfortunate plodder not blessed with ability?'" "WeIl," said Talma's companion Nothing" replied the actor, moth, ing, only that unfortunate little man is
 now Emperor of France, and I-well,
 am just plain Talma. .''-Cincinnat

THE SYMPHONY SALE.

The sale of subscription tickets for the coming season of concerts by the New Haven Symphony orchestra is be- ing held at Steinert's. The sale prom ises to be very large this year. The out-of-town list of subscribers is much larger than heretofore, and 1t is not likely that the local patronage will be less than formerly. The giving of the concerts is said to be dependent on the results of this sale, but there can be no doubt of the popularity of the con- certs, and the series is sure of general support.
 The first concert is announced for the 9th, with Gertrude May Stein as the so- loist. This assures a large audience for the first concert because of Miss Stein S popularity in New Haven. Miss Stein has never been heard here except in oratorio and people will be glad to hear her in varied programme.

Campbell of New Haven and Mrs. c. o. Damn, also of this city. MT. Campbell met with mishap a year ago, breaking his hip by falling on the ice. To the joy of all concerned, the break healed almost as rapidly as if a child's, and MT. CampbelPs walk has not been impaired. The main exercises were held at their home last evening. Relatives from Winsted and Buffalo were present. Peter Terhune, of the firm of Seabrooke & Smith, lent the lower part of his house, adjoining the Campbell house, for the occasion, and his daughters, Miss Grace and Miss Jessie, read a poem especially written for the occasion and contributed other wise to the programme. The gift of the children to their venerable parents was $50 gold piece the coin bearing the names of "Campbell-Taylor, 1847- 1S97." MT. and Mrs. Campbell are both in excellent health.

Figures Given From Which 1t May be
 Determined.
 Washington, Nov. 29.-The govern ment directors and the receivers of the Kansas Pacific railroad, which is to be sold December 15 have submitted to the attorney general the figures from which the value of the property is to be esti- mated. Their figures as to earnings and income, while differing slightly, agree for all practical purposes. These figures in round numbers show the fol- lowing gross and net earnings for the years from 1889 to 1896 inclusive:
 1Ss9-Gross earnings, $3,055, 900; net earnings, $1,059,000.
 1S9o--Gross earnings, $3,040,000; net earnings, $774,473.
 1S91-Gross earnings, $2.939,0Oo net earnings, $1,223,oOO.
 1S92-Gross earnings, $3,41S, 900; net earnings, $1,501,O00.
 1S93-Gross earnings, $2,419, 900; net earnings, $S02, ,000
 1S94-Gross earnings, $2o93, ,OOO; net earnings, $6O92S9
 1S95-Gross earnings, $2,017 ,00O; net earnings, $609000.
 1Ss6-Gross earnings, s2,24S.000; net earnings, $755,000.
 There has been little inquiry of the attorney general from possible or pro- spective bidders, but 8 strong impress sion prevails here that the road will go the reorganization committee of the Union Pacific railroad. There is a lega question as to whether the purchasers of the road will not have certain privi- leges over the Denver and Cheyenne ex. tensions. which will virtually amount tc a franchise and, to the measure of these privileges, increase the value of the road to the purchasers.

One Of Chapman's Leading Citizens
BADLY Hurt.


CHAPMAN, Nov. 26.-A serious ac-
cident occurred on Thanksgiving
morning to our aged resident, Nicho-
las Stanley, Sr. He carries mail
daily between Chapman and Rinehart
and started with a horse belonging to
his son Frank, which took fright be-
tween the Standard Office and the
bridge over the Smoky and ran wildly
on to the bridge. There it collided
with an approaching team and wagon.
Mr.. Stanley was thrown violently in
to the ironwork Of the bridge, from
which he fell to the roadway, brnis-
ing and cutting his head. Neighbors
quickly ran to the spot and carried
him to his home block or two away.
Several ribs were broken, one tract
ured end having pierced the lung. 1t
is feared he cannot survive the shock
and injury.
