A Fortune in Dust.

An italian pays New York eighty
thousand dollars year for the priYI
lege OF picking over the city's dirt. A
few years ago three or four men were
engaged at a dollar and half day
to trim" the city's dirt.
Finally 1t occurred to the superin
tendent of street cleaning thai a smar,
man could find enough in 1. to afford
to pay the trlmmers himself. and, sure
enough, such man was found. Then
an offer Of seventy-five dollars week
for the privilege was made and accept
ed. and gradually the price rose by sue
cessiYe bids to two hundred dollars q
week,
By regular graduations the sums OF
seven hundred dollars two years ago,
eleven hundred dollars last year. and
eleven hundred and flfty-two dollars
per week this, have been made, and the
city now has its work done for it and
Is paid eighty thousand dollars year
for the privilege.
Dickens was not an eXaggerator
when he created a fortune out of the
dust-heaps which seemed mere incum-
brances ON the face of the earth.

The night cars on the Broadway
cable road carry some queer human
birds of passage, especially about
the hour when tho thunders of news
paper presses are heard along Park
row. The other night good natured
but befuddled man boarded night
car at dead mans curve" He did
not sober up in the wild ride around
that nerve racl1ing sweep, and as
the car entered the precincts of the
old Tonderloin the swaying passen-
ger evidently scented peril. Un-
steadily poising himself, he asked
the conductor for his name, address,
badge number and number of the
car.
Then he pressed upon the con-
duotor II handful of Perfecto cigars.
"Smoke 'em 'smornin," he said.

The conductor, Injured to strange
requests, cared for the boozy passeu-
ger and his valuables. But no took

The Umbrella In Montenerro.

A voivode grandee OF the realrn)
had come to the conclusion that q
"Frankish" umbrella vas useful and
Indispensable adjunct 70 a gentleman g
outfit. He accordingly procured one,
and waited impatiently for an appor-
tunity to parade 1t in public. At last
the floodgates of heaven were opened
the rain decended In torrents, and our
yoivode sailed forth under the cover Uf
his umbrella to the great square In
front of the Princes palace, where he
strutted up an down with smile of
Eelf-complacency. Suddenly, however,
the Prince stood before him, and,
snatching the umbrella out of his hand,
said. "Since when mas a Montenegrin
begun to wear an umbrella, you cow
ard! Whereupon he dealt the owner
a couple of blows with 1t on the head
and afterwords broke it to pieces.
Since that time pretty considerable
number of umbrellas have been Inn
ported into Montenegro 1t Is true, but
they are only worn when the Prince is
not about. Whenever the cry is raised.
1.-The Prince is comingw the "grandecs"
decamp to hide their umbrellas like o
squad Of naughty schoolboys.

Trees In Summer and Winter.

1t has, perhaps, occurred to few
of us that tho boughs of trees occu-
py very different position in sum-
mcr and winter respectively, but
Miss Agnes Fry has made careful
measurement of the height from
tho ground of branches of both wal
nut and mulberry trees in August
and December, and she finds that
in some cases there is difference
of as much as 81 inches in the
height of the same branch from the
ground in these two months. This
particular figure was obtained with
a branch of mulberry troe, and 1t
was found that in December q
weight of 35 pounds was not suffi-
cient to lower it to its summer posi-
ton.
In other cases there We're differ
ences of from 13 inches to 10 inches
in the distance in summer and will
tor respectively of branches from
the ground. No wonder, then, that
the diagnosis of treo in winter
from its general outline is so diff
cult q task. Public Opinion.

DETEcr1oNs or MURDER.
Thoy Arc Sometimes Discovered in Most
PecuItnr Manner.

Peculfnr Manner
Afurderers are sometimes discovered
In most peculiar manner, and the fol-
lowing cases. illustrative OF this, may
be quoted from the many on record.
A workman in a brewery quarrelled
with one of his fellows, and struck him
such a blow that he died Immediately.
AS they were alone he picked up the
body and threw 1t under boiling vat,
where it was soon consumed. On the
man being missed the following day
the murderer coolly observed that he
had seen his fellow workman in state
Of intoXieation and that he had prob
ably fallen from bridge on his way
home and been drowned.
The crime remained undiscovered for
a period of seven years, but at the end
OF that time the true facts of the case
wre brought to light in a rather re-
markable manner. The murderer was
talking one night In his sleep, and o
workman with whom he slept over
heard him say, 1T is now full seven
years ago."
His curiosity being aroused he asll-
ed What was 1t you did seven years
ngo?" and the unfortunate man replied,
i put him under the boiling vat"
This confession was associated with
The tragedy, which was not quite for
gotten, and the workman was arrested
IN consequence. At first he asserted
his innocence, but subsequently, ac-
kIowledged his guilt, and suffered III
due course. .a
Another murder, committed at
Frankfort early In the present century,
was discovered under somewhat ludic-
rous circumstances. 1t appears that a
woman, whose husband was a soldier,
imagined that h3 had been killed In
battle, and sought solace in the arms si
another.
Her first husband turned up, how
ever, to claim his wife, and she recelv-
ed him with every mark of affection,
and kept him in ignorance respecting
the second alliance. On the errant one
retiring to rest the services OF husband
number two were secured by the wo-
man, and between them they strangled
tn unfortunate soldier,
Then they put the Body in a sack
and carried 1t TO the river Oder, but the
sack burst during the journey and ono
OF the mans legs protruded through
the opening. The woman stitched up
the rent, but in doing so also sewed
In the skirts OF her accomplice's coat,
SO that when he let the body fall into
the river he was dragged in with 1t,
The result was that when the wo-
mans cries for help brought some
peasants to the spot, they rescued the
drowning man, and discovered the dead
body hanging to his coat. In conse-
quence the man and woman were
charged with murder, and. on making
o full confession. were handed over to
the officers uf justice.

This Is what Mr.. Henry James, the
famous novelist. calls London. But
though London is so dreadfully delight
full she is yet, continues Mr.. James, 80
clumsy and brutal, and has gathered
together so many OF .he darkest sides
Of life, chat 1t Is almost ridiculous to
talk OF her ae lover talks OF his sweet
heart. and almost frivolous to appear
to ignore her disflgurements and cruel
tics. She Is like the mighty ogress who
devours human flesh"
Tho ugliness, the "rookerles," the
brutalities, the night aspect Of many
Of the streets, the ginshops, and the
hour when they are cleared out before
closing-there are many elements of this
KIND which have to be counted out be-
fore a genial picture can be painted.
AT any rate, the impression of suffer-
Ing Is feature OF the general view:
1t is one OF the things that mingle with
all the Others to make the sound that
Is supremely dear to the consistent
London-lover-the rumble of the tre-
mendous human mill. This Is the note
which. in all It's modulations, haunts
and fascinates and inspires him. And
whether or no he may succeed in keen
Ing the misery out Of the picture, he
win freely confess that the latter is not
spoiled for him by some OF It's duskiest
shades.
Excess Is London's highest reproach,
and 1t Is her lncurable misfortune that
there Is really too much OF her. She

ber-she ends by making human life,
by making civilization, appear cheap

worst. the importunate nightingales!

CURIOUS SOURCES cY MUSIC.
A Tnvern-Kceper who Entertained GuestA
with Queer Instruments.


A tavern-keeper named Dainty
flourished in the last century vas able
to play tunes upon the most lnconsru-
GUS articles. and his category OF lnatru-
ments included such kitchen utensils as
the gridiron and frying-pan.
A writer who was entertained by ahis
musical genius says that he took 4
case-knife, and applying the edge OF Il
to his mouth, treated the company 70
an Italian solo. He then took two
clean tobacco pipes, and "after having
slid the small ends of them over the to-
BILE In most melodious trill. fetched
tune out of them, whistllng TO thom
at the same time In concert" lie con.
fessed, however, that in bringing this
piece Of music to perfection he Ind
broken such quantity Of pipes that he
had almost broken himaeli.
He next manipulated an old frying
pan In such manner that as he whist
led an accompaniment the music thus
produced could scarcely BE- distinguish
ed from bass viol. Then he euwges!-
ed that a friend should sing. and he
would accompany ON the tobacco pipes;
but the vocalist selected the frying pan
as an accompaniment, and between
them, we are told, they made most
extraordinary concert" lie informed
the writer referred to that he had put
down the tongs and key some years
previously "as being unfashimable.
This man was also capital whistler.
and could initiate various birds 10
nicely. When performing like lark,
would ascend by proper scale of notes
and then fall to the ground, as it were,

Another publican, named Price, who
kept the Green man." formerly known
as the "Farthing Pye House," at the
top Of Portland Row, st. MaIy-lo-bone,
could accompany the violin exceeding
ly well with a rolling-pin aid salt
box. In another case, a man who used
to frequent the publlc-houses in the
City was in the habit OF treating the
company to somewhat peculiar music.
He would blow out his cheeks with his
breath. and then beat tune upon them
with his fists. and this he could do
with great facility.-Tit-Bits

THE RELIEF MASS MEETING.
The Care of the Poor VIII BE Dis
cussed saturday Night.

Arrangements for the mass meeting to be
beid at Foundry NJ. f. Church on Saturday
evening under the auspices OF the Central
Relief Committee, Civic Center. and board
OF trade are nearly completed. Gen. Stern
berg, chairman of the special committee
having in charge the investigation of the
sanitary conditions Of streets and alleys
and the housingof the poor, and Mr.. George
S. Wilson. secretary of the Associated
Charities, spent a long while yesterday
preparing the program for the meeting but
did not complete the work. Nor did they
think that the program would be ready for
publication until Saturday morning.
So far the only details arranged are that
the meeting will be presided over by Mr.
Justice Brewer and that addresses viii be
made by Bishop satterlee and DR.. E. R. l..
Gould, formerly OF the Department of
Labor. and at present superintendent Of
the Sanitary Improvement Company, OF
New York
The object OF the meeting, briefly stated,
is to consider the possibilities of providing
comfortable dwellings for the poor of the
city. and also to discuss the proposition
of rganiZing a stock company to erect the
necessary buildings for this purpose. Al
ready the plans for the organization OF
such a company have been submitted to
great many interested in the enterprise,
and have met with their hearty approvaland
have also been approved by the central
relief committee. In fact, the approval has
Ia ken practical form, several of the most
enthusiast promoters OF the scheme hay-
ing already subscribed literally to the
stock company.
