THE GAME OF HIS LIFE.
Showing Ones Varying View of Golf as He

Plays Well or III.
On the links of the Island Golf club
at Garden City, N. Y, two mon were
having hot game, with success about
even. They were good friends and com
plimented each other on their good
shots and looked the other way after
foozle. just as the younger one stepped
upon the tee to drive off for the sixth
hole a very swagger cart came spinning
up the road that crosses the links near
that tee. A stunning young woman was
driving. She pulled up sharply near tho
tee and called out to the man about to
drive;
George, dear, won't you come homo
now and not delay luncheon"
The man Strengthened up with an air
of disgust at the interruption and re.

"Well, I'll drive up and down here
and wait for you, she said
AS she started off George, dear, turned
to continue the game Of his life. He
sliced his drive and lost the ball in the
blackberry bushes in the ravine. He
dropped a new ball and lost one stroke.
Then he topped the ball on tho niblick
shot out Of the whir and didn't gain
three feet Finally he got out with
seven and was bunkered in the road
that crosses the field. There he lost two
more strokes and the rest of his temper.
Finally he got out of the bunker and
with a beautiful lie used his brassey for
a three-quarters iron and overshot the
hole by so yards into the tall grass.
There the ball was lost.
Ten minutes later the swagger cart
was spinning down the road at the top
speed of the horse, the stunning young
woman sitting very erect and statu-
esque and driving with superb skill. In
the back of the cart, with his heels dan

Uncle Nose came down from the
country to visit his son, who worked in
the livery stable. Uncle Nose was a
deacon in a little country church and
was noted fer his long, fervent prayers,
but when his son Ike took him to tho
colored church in the city and when he
heard the organ and gazed upon the
we'll dressed darkies he felt as if the
Lord was long ways off. Uncle Nose
had met the parson the day before, and
what was his surprise when that person
said during services, we'll all join in
pra'r wild Brother Nose Smith. E" Unclo
Nose went down on his knees and threw
his deep voice and soul il prayer
which shook the rafters. AS he came to

HOW SHE DID 1T.
Girl Cashiers Mind Reading Methods Of
Making Change.

The girl cashier of a Madison street
restaurant was for three weeks believed
by one of the customers to be lineal
descendant of Morgan lie Fay and to
have some of the family traits of Heller,
the second sight magician, for she
seemed to know by intuition or instinct
or something else what was the price of
the meal he had consumed and also Just
the amount of money III his hand when
he approached to pay. He first noticed
that when he presented 80 cent check
she Immediately laid upon the rubber
mat dime and nickel which she had
been holding for change.
How, this man inquired of him
self, did she know that Is cents would
be the correct changer There was no
earthly way for her to tell what money
was going to offer her either How
did she come to have the exact change
ready without second S delay or with
out having to go to the cash register for
it?" He could not answer to his own
satisfaction
The next day he bought q 45 cent
meal, and she promptly laid niekle
before him, the cent piece being ths
only coin she held in her hand 1t was
the correct amount, as he gave her a
half dollar He experimental several
times afterward and at last appealed to
her for information.
why, y she said, didn't you ever
notice the tint of your eheck?" When |
see you coming 90 feet away, l know
by the slate colored check that you have
eaten 90 cents worth. If you have q
red ticket, that warns me that you want
to pay for two bit meal. A blue one
means 80 cents. This yellow one is, of
course, for 40 cents. The amount is
printed upon the check, but the color
is my warming u
yes, " said the other, somewhat re-
lieyed, THAT seems easy. But still my
money is not of different colors How
do you know what change to have
ready? That's mind reading, sure. y
mot at all. When You come with a
quarter ticket, you will usually give me
the exact change or half dollar l
have a quarter ready for you in my left
hand in case you give me half Sup
pose your ticket is 80 cent enc you'll
either give me the correct amount or a
half dollar-or perhaps a dollar. With
Is cents in one hand and SO cents in
the other I'm ready for any demonstra-
ton almost. Chicago Record

FORTUNE FOR A VASE.
Celebrated Pieces of China, Their Value
and Their Owners.

Celebrated Pieces of China, Their Value
and Their Owners.
Ten thousand guineas paid by tho
Earl of Dudley for an antique vase and
ever OF early Sevres china was the lar
gest sum ever paid for a vase. It was
afterward sold to Baron Schroeder for
5000 guineas Five thousand guineas
was paid at the sale of the Lynes-
Stephens collection in 1895 for an owl
form vase of old Seyres porcelain, paint
ed with horsemen and figures, after
Wouyermans, and trophy of arms in
two medallions with huted neck and
handles formed as gilt figures Of boys,
by Dodin and NORM, 15M inches high.
The price included pair of oyiform,
fat shaped vases of comparatively small
value, apart from the one above de-
soribed, the three being one set which
formed part of the Earl of Pembroke's
collection.
In Mr.. jones' collection Of pottery
and porcelain at the South Kensington
museum there is an egg shaped Gros
Bleu Sevres vase with medallions of
Cupid and Psyche which was acquired
for 8, 200 guineas. The celebrated Bar
berini or Portland vase, now preserved
in the gold chamber of the British mu-
scum, was purchased by Sir W. Ham
ilton for Ell, 00o, and afterward sold to
the Duchess Of Portland for 81, 800. A
historical vase was recently put under
the hammer at Christie's. It was one of
a pair presented to the Marquis of
Montcalm (the defender of Quebec) by
Louis XIV. The last bid for this splen-
did work Of art was 81, 995 One Of the
largest vases in the world was a present

THE QUICK HORSE.
An outgrowth of Improved American
Methods OF Fire Fighting.

an OoeEFoWth OF Improved American
Methods OF Fire Fighting.
In st. Nicholas there is an article on
1.-The Quick Horse, by F. S. Dellen-
Daugh, devoted to the horses of the mod
ern fire department. Mr.. Dellenbauch
says: 1t is only within recent years that
quick horses have been developed and
appreciated and admired, and the poet
mas not yet attempted to sing the praises
OF this more prosaic but noble animal.
Yet, after all, to one who carefully ex-
amlnes the matter the quick horse ap-
pears to have quite as good, if not bet.
ter, claim upon our admiration and
sympathy and encouragement. The
swift horse wins the race and in these
days he may cause considerable money
to change hands, in which there is GER
talnly nothing that is commemorate.
But the quick horse I write about saves
life, saves property and under modern
conditions OF life is essential to our
safety and general we'll being. He is
the result indirectly Of poor building
an outgrowth Of our skillful American
fire departments, which could not now
exist without him.
Not so very many years ago hen
fire broke out everybody far and near
began to run and especially began to
yell. and the volunteer fremen OF that
time, being in the service for the excite.
ment of it, Joined in the yell and start
ed out the cid hand engine from its sol
emn repose, while the foreman running
ahead shouted innumerable orders
hoarsely through his trumpet, to the
great delight of hundreds of small boys
painting to keep up in the glorious race.
The flre-that was altogether a SEQ
ondary matter, and when they all final
~ got there they went to work with
moro or less efficiency. There was a
great deal of fun in the business, but
fires were not extinguished. Our cities
in the early days were not built to pre-
vent fires, but seemed, if anything, ra-
Their built to encourage them.
In France we may we'll he amused as
we watch the pompier corps trundle its
bathtub on wheels to the scene of the
conflagration and deliberately fill its
apartments with water dipped up from
the gutter, whence it is thrown by a
little pump upon the flames, because we
know much of the architecture there is
solid, and if the fire is not extinguished
it will soon burn itself ont But in our
eounsry mere spark may in few Sec
onds become a devouring furnace and
destroy house after house and block aft
er block Many buildings are timer
boxes, and our dry climate adds to their
infammability, while the ever present
careless or lazy workman by improper
construction gives tho FIRE its first op-
portunity.

Hilary A. Herbert who was Secretary Of the

Spanish Navy is by no means equal TO ours in
fighting strength, while the Spanish finances are,
in contradstinction TO ours. In n deporable con-
dition. OF course. they have some good ships and
81 would be well for underestimate the
bravery Of the Spaniards in OF war. However,
Il IS safe 20 assume that the balance of power is

The length or a war with Spain would depend
almost entirely upon the latter's ability TO

might decide the matter; and in case II did not. IL
IS likely that the struggle might be proracted for
some months Commerce-destroying would then
