Using that the United States have done
in the case of Hawaii has diffused far
and wide the idea that they are in the

or annex it to this country. The propo-
sition to annex the Danish islands has
been revived. What is still more sur
Drising is the intimation that the island
of jamaica would like to break loose
from Great Britain and join her fortunes
with those of our great republic.

lous conversion of Able Ratisbonne, the
Jew. Able Ratisbonne entered the
church Jew and came out a Christian,
having seen there, he stated, vision OF
our Lady. The story, Pugin said after
seeing the church, is demonstrably
false. The man could not have said a
prayer in such hideous church. Our
Lady could not have chosen such a
church for a vision. The man could
have had no piety in him to have staid
in such church at all.

Possibly the greatest case on record is
that wonder of wonders, the most in
tellectual of interpreters, the late DIR.
Hans Won Bulow. He not only played
all of Beethoven by heart upon the pi-
ano, but knew all the symphonies in the
same manner, and practically the whole
Wagnerian output of musical metal, and
it is claimed that so great was the mass
of the piano music which Bulow retain
ed within the book and volume of his
brain, inscribed in mysterious hero
glyphics somewhere among the MOLE
cules of the gray matter constituting the
cortex of his cerebral organ, that he
could have played % piano recital pro-
grammes without repeating and without
printed page. Since there go about
1900 measures to the hour and two
solid hours to an ordinary Bulow pro-
gramme this would represent 100, 900
measures of music, or about 1000 large
pages, something like eight or ten thick
volumes.
Even Bulow was outdone by Rubin
stein, in the field of piano music at
least, if we can trust the anecdote mon
gers, for it is claimed that in one season
at st. Petersburg he played series of
reoitals which exhausted the literature
of the piano and embraced 1, 800 dis
tinct compositions. 1t is mentioned of
Mendelssohn that on one occasion, the
score of Beethoven Sixth Symphony"
having been misplaced. he raised his
baton and directed the work from men,
ory, but this does not seem to me feat
in the least remarkable, for the pastoral
symphony is SO extremely lucid and so
bewitchingly beautiful that the only
thing difficult or remarkable would be
the forgetting of it. Nine Patti knew

Peep through green sepals the roses of May,
And through black laces the bloom Of your

Fresh as these roses, child, still you may say,
Through your mantilla, coy Manuela,

When all's in bloom and the rose in its passion,
Warmed on your bosom, would never say nay,
Htill 1t is wise-in your own country fashion
Under your opening fan only to say:
''Hasta Mammal Hasta Mammal
Until tomorrow, amigo" Away.
When all is gray and the roses are scattered,
Hearts may have broken that broolEed no de-

Yet will tomorrow surcease of sorrow
Bring unto eyes and lips that still can say:
''Hasta Mammal Hasta Mammal
Until tomorrow is best for today"

You Cannot Fail to Appreciate the Point
In This Story.
Once farmer had 1,900 bushels OF
wheat. which he sold not to single
grain merchant, but to 1900 different
dealers, bushel each. A few of them
paid him in cash, but far the greater
number said it was not convenient then;
they would pay later. A few months
passed, and the man s bank account ran
low. "How is this?" he said. "My
1900 bushels of grain should have kept
me in affluence until another crop il
raised, but have parted with the grain
and have instead only vast number Of
accounts, SO small and scattered that
cannot get around and collect fast
enough to pay expenses.
So he posted up public notice and
asked all those who owed him to pay
quickly. But few came. The rest said,
"Mine is only small matter, and
will go and pay one of these days. !" for
getting that though each account was
very small, when all were put together
they meant large sum to the man.
Things went on thus. The man got to
feeling SO badly that he fell out Of bed
and awoke, and running to his granary
found his 1900 bushels of wheat still
safe there. He had only been dreaming.
Moral. The next day the man went
to the publisher of his paper and said

time to die was discussed. rnen the
minister came in with pious sniff and
stood revealed, a regular Stiggins as to
get up-a dry, self sufficient man, icier
than the day and colder than the storm.
He deposited his hat and black gloves
and wet umbrella on the poor little bed
in the corner; he slapped his hands Wig
orously together; he took himself in
we'll merited fashion by the ears and
pulled them into the glowing sensation,
and after thawing out for a moment
he plunged into business.
He ratified merrily through some Sc
lected sentences from the Bible. He
gave us prayer that sounded like peas
in a dried bladder, and he came to amen
with jerk that brought me up like a
patent snap. He pulled on his old gloves
and grabbed his rusty hat, and, with his
umbrella dripping inky tears over the
we'll scrubbed floor, he offered set form
of coincidence to the broken hearted
mother. He told her of her sin in rebel
ling against the decree of Providence.
He assured her that nothing could bring
folly of the world in general, and then
he made horrible blunder and showed
he didn't know even the sex of the dead
by saying, "He cannot come to you, but
you must go to him"
This was settler for Parepa and my
self. We looked at the departing minis
ter in blank establishment.
The door swung wide; we saw the
serewdriver waving in the air as the
undertaker's man held converse with
the clergyman. A hush fell on every
body gathered in the little room. Not
one word had been uttered of consola-
ton. 1t was the emptiest, hollowest,
most unsatisfactory moment l ever re-
member.
Then Parepa arose, her cloak falling
about her noble figure like mourning
drapery She stood beside that miser-
able cherry wood box. She looked a
moment on the pinched, wasted, ashy
face upturned toward her from within
it. She laid her soft, white hand on the
discolored forehead of the dead girl,
and she lifted up that matchless voice
In the beautiful melody:
Angels, ever bright and fair,
Take, oh, take her, to your care.
The sorewdriver paused in describing
an airy circle. The wet umbrella stood
pointing down the stairs. The two men
with astonished faces were foremost in
crowd that instantly filled the passage.
The noble voice swelled toward heaven,
and if ever the choir Of paradise paused
to listen to earth s music it was when
Parepa sang so gloriously beside that
poor dead girl.
No words can describe its effect on
those gathered there The sad mournel
sank on her knees, and with clasped
hands and streaming eyes the little band
stood reverently about her.
No queen ever went to her grave &C.
companied by a grander ceremony. Tt

song rings with solemn melody in my
memory as the only real, impressive
funeral service ever heard. 80 Planets

A'S IN SHORTHAND.

Many Trials of an Eng1ishman With His
stenOgrapher.
An Englishman who drops his his
and aspirates his as and a stenographer
and typewriter who spells Theoretically
from diotation make combination
from which trouble is sure to result I'm
less the copy" is carefully revised.
The manager of one Of the most impor-
tant manufacturing plants in Cleveland
is an Englishman. Not long ago he en-
ployed young man to act as his stenog-
rapher, and one of the first things that
the latter was called upon to do was
the taking down" of letter to the
managers wife, who was away at
summer resort. Being busy man, the
manager didn't take the trouble to look
at the letter after it had been typewrit-
ten, but when his wife answered it
there was hot time for the stenogra-
pher. "My dear Henry" she wrote,
"what on earth do you mean by calling
me Hannah and our little Horace
'Orrisf' will admit that this sounds
like you, but why do you make joke
of it before your employees?"
Of course the fond husband and ia
Their didn't know what it all meant, and
SO he wrote for an explanation, when
his first letter was sent back to him.
One glance at it and he rushed over
to his stenographer, exoitedly threw the
sheet down before him and demanded,
There, what do You mean, sir, by
writing my wife's name down An
nah?'"
"Anna?" replied the young man.
"Let me see. No, I've got it Hannah,
all right. =
"But " said the manager, who was
furious, "it's not 'Annah, - it,
HANNAH
"well, there it is, Hannah-H-a-n-
nah.
'Annah be dashedl' exclaimed the
manager. Gamma, Hanna Can't you
understand English, you blanked fool?"
By this time the stenographer began
to see through the trouble, SO he begged
off upon the plea that having had a
swelling in one of his ears he had not
been able to hear very well. But it cost
him nearly weeks salary to square
things with the other boys in the Office,
and he always deems it best to hide
when he hears the managers wife in
the hall. Cleveland Leader.
