The music which has been the attrac-

street must be stopped. So the marshal
has informed Johnnie and that hustling
proprietor has promised TO have it

For some time past the music which
has been heard in that place attracted
mo little attention and the concert hall
songs which were generally rendered
could be heard halt block away. The
marshal called on the proprietor on sew
veraI occasions and informed him that the
nuisance must be stopped, as complaints
we're coming in altogether too fast in re-
gard TO the noise that was made in his

straw which broke the camels back.
The marshal again informed the pro-
prietor that unless the noise or music, or
whareyer Mr.. Remiry was pleased to call
it, came to an end and that at once, he
proposed to interfere. This last call was
resented by Mr.. Remfry, who became
somewhat important and told the mar

about it,
Marshal Beck thought things had gore

Old Families.

The most ancient family in France in
so far as the tracing back Of the ancestry
in an unbroken line is concerned, is the
royal house of Bourbon, which goes back
to Robert 10 Fort, in the year SCI. Next
in point of antiquity comes the Rohan
family, which for the last century, how
ever, has been settled in Austria, the so
called Rohans in France being not really
Rohans. but merely Chabots, their only
connection with the house Of Rohan being
by marriage.
Then comes the house Of Narbonne-
Pellet, the head of which is the Duo de
Narbonne, who can trace his lineage back
without interruption to the year 90 OF
course, in making this assertion, do not
take into consideration the somewhat
mythical claim of the Duke of Lewis Mire-
polk to be descended in direct and I'M
broken line from Jacobs son, Levi He
has among his family pictures one old
painting in which the Holy Virgin is rep
resented as requesting the former Duke of
Lewis Mirepoix to put on his hat, which
he had dotted in salutation, she being de-
picted as uttering the words, "Couvrez
vous, mon cousin" Another picture rep
resents an ancestor of the dukes of Lewis
Mirepoix navigating small boat on the
waters of the deluge, he being too exclu-
sive and high toned to share the ark with
the Noah family and its belongings. Chi

Accurate Measurements.

An illustration of the marvellous accur-
acy characterizing tools or instruments Of
measurement now employed as compared
with those of former times is given by a
writer in The American Machinist-
namely, that whereas formerly .OO1 inch
marked on drawing would have been
objected to on the ground that it was diff
ficult or impossible to work so closely to
measures as that at the present time .OOO5
inch Is measured in every fine workshop,
and Dimensions given in hundredths or
even thousandths of an inch frequently
appear on drawings without objection on
the part of the workmen The instruments
of measurement are now made with such
a degree of refined accuracy that even the
warmth of the hand may expand rod IL
inches long so that the amount of expan-
sion can be measured 1t has thus become
important in fine measurement to be care
full that the temperature of the piece to be
measured or gagged should have the same
temperature as that of the Instrument by
which it's size is determined. By first
handling rod of the length named and
measuring 1t, particularly If the rod be of
brass or copper, and then, after allowing
the rod to COOL handling the gauge until
the latter expands, it is found that dis
crepancy of from .007 inch to .001 inch
may be sometimes made apparent, due en-
tirely to differences of temperature.

Vanderbilt Not Up on Music.

Cornelius Vanderbilt and Chauncey NJ.
Depew once addressed the seventh annual
conference of the railroad department of
the Young Mems Christian association in
the railroad building at Forty eighth
street and Madison avenue. Mr. Wander
bilt presided, and Mr.. Depew sat just at
his left. There was a violin solo on the
programme by Miss Marguaritha Rasmus-
sen, an extremely pretty girl and an &C.
complished violinist, and to Mr.. Wander
bilt fell the duty of introducing her. This
he did with all the grace of a presentation
at Patriarchs' ball, but he then made
the mistake of attempting to turn hel
music.
The selection, which was Beriot's
Scheme de Ballet" went all right until
the fair performer had almost ended the
first page. Either he was unfamiliar with
the scheme de Ballet" or absentminded.
The bow squeaked pathetically across the
strings, and the girl looked frightened.
Then she glared Indignantly at Mr.. Van
derbilt and flushed crimson and turned
the page spasmodically
There was a smooth interval then until
the end of the third page was reached. Mr..
Vanderbilt looked distracted and didn't
turn. DR.. Depew smiled seraphically, and
the solo came to an abrupt stop Every
body laughed and applauded, and Dr. De
pew never lost his smile. When the sole
was resumed, Miss Rasmussen turned her
own pages, and Mr.. Vanderbilt sat down,
looking self conscious and uncomfortable.

Xenophon as a Dog Fancier.

Xenophon opens his disquisition on
hounds by an enumeration of all the de-
fects, physical and moral, which "a hound
should not possess wherein 1t is easy to
recognize all the failings which are still
AMONG las. Leggy hounds, weedy hounds,
fiat sided hounds, fat footed hounds, I'M
dersized hounds headstrong hounds, flashy
hounds sulky hounds, jewellers, babblers,
skirters-all are faithfully portrayed and
uncompromisingly condemned. Hounds
with such faults as these, whether due to
nature or to bad training, are of little
worth. They are enough to disgust even
a truly keen sportsman.
A good hound should have light,
small, sinewy head, long, round, flexible
neck, broad chest, free shoulders, straight,
round why forelegs, straight knees, round
sides, muscular loins full TANKS, but not
too full His thighs should be firm, COM
pact and well let down, his feet round, and
his stern long, straight and tapering Such
is Xenophon' description of n good hound.
1t seems to us not amiss for the fourth
century before our era.-Macmillan' q

RAPID WRITER'S.
Gentlemen Who Covered Space at Good
Speed Before There Were Newspapers.

Gentlemen Who Covered Space at Good
Speed Before There Were Newspapers.
The rapidity of the ancient writers is
pared by them. Livy, for instance, wrote
lag books. Among the Romans, Cicero Of
ten wrote three or four important works
in single year OF later writers, DR.
johnson, Scott and Byron were all rapid
writers. Byron, 1t is related, wrote 1.-The
Corsair" in ten days, while Scott wrote a
work for which he was paid 81, 900 in ten
days. "Rab and His Friends" by DR..
John Brown, was written, 1t Is said, at q
single sitting.
The story is told that Dean Shipley once
said to Heber, Suppose you write hymn
for the service tomorrow morning" and
by the next morning the hymn known all
around the world, From Greenland s Icy
Mountains" was written, printed and
used in that days missionary service.
Chalmers was once asked how long 1t took
to prepare sermon. He replied:
THAT depends on how long you want
it. If your sermon Is to be half an hour
long, it will take you three days; If it is to
be three-quarters of an hour, it will take
two or perhaps one; but If you are go
ing to preach an hour, then there Is not
much occasion to think great deal about
1t. 1t may be done In an hour.
Samuel Johnson would write at a sim
gle sitting the manuscript for 4S printed
octave pages. In one week he wrote "Ras-
selas'' to pay for his mothers funeral, sent
1t off to the publishers without reading 1t
over and was paid el00 for it.-Collector.
