The wonderful self-confidence that en-

LEAP YEAR.

Within eight more centuries leap year
will have become a relic of the present
time. BY that time the extra II days
lost to make up the changes from the old
Julian calendar to that of the present
day will all have been duly accounted for,
and the world will run around in just
365 days, and no more. The ladies of the
coming century will be forced to devise
some other scheme for forcing the I'M
willing swain to take a wife. Nineteen
hundred, while one of the even years
ending a quartet. will not be a leap year
simply because in arranging the dates it
was ~purposely left out.
The ladies' use their privilege again in
1904; but though there will not be many
of those who see 1904 who will see 1000,
the latter year, ending a fourth century,
will be a leap year. In this way three
days are r~etrenChed in four centuries. and
the remaining seven days will be made
up in a little over 500 years. After that
calendar years will be like solar years,
and errors in calculation of time will oc-
cur no more.
The loss in leap years will in thousands
of years affect the seasons, out probably
the mathematicians of the centuries
hence will be so expert in handling figures
and making calculations that they will
have no difficulty in keeping things GO,
ing correctly.

A YOUTHFUL STATESMAN.

The youngest and apparently the fresh
est member of the Fifty-siXth congress
will be Martin H. Glynn of Albany, N.
Y. Mr.. Glynn succeeds the Hon. George
II. Southwick and, if he lives up to the
advance notices of himself, which he has
thoughtfully furnished to the press, he
will more than compensate the country
for the loss of the eminent services Of
James Hamilton Lewis and Lemuel Ely
Quigg. Mr.. Glynn state in his autibio-
graphy that he is just rs years of age.
This is hard to believe if one is to accept
what follows as gospel truth. He was
born in the town of Undertook, almost
within the shadow of the old residence
of Martin Van Buren,, and the natal
place Of Samuel J.. Tilden." Naturally
he received inspiration from this fact.
Mr.. Glynn states that he is a lawyer,
newspaper man and magazine writer of
distinction, having contributed a num-
Der of articles to the leading magazines
of the country" He was graduated at
Fordham college, and Mr.. Gym modestly
adds that his record as a student both in
the public schools and college was peer
less" This is certainly gratifying and
encouraging. Continuing his description
of himself and his achievements, Mr..
Glynn says. He swings a facile pen.
BUT II is as a speaker tnat ne
has gained most prominence, and wher-
ever he has appeared he has won golden
needs of praise from the press. His
speech at the recent banquet Of the AL
bany society of New York won him lau-
datory notices from the press of the me-
%trOpoliS. Although yOung the opinion is
prevalent that Mr.. Glynn will be favor
ably heard in the house of representa-
tives should any measure call him to the
floor during his term of office.
THE success of Mr.. Glynn is but an ex-
ample of what a young man of pluck and
ability can do in this country. He had
neither wealth, influence nor powerful
friends with which to begin life. But he
worked hard, pushed himself through col
lege, plugged away like a beaver ever
since, and, at a little over the legal age
is elected to congress. Like hundreds of
other poor boys, he has made brains and
determination bring him results which
could not be bought with money.
Two years after graduation his aim
mater conferred upon him the degree OF
master Of arts because of his writings.
MI. Glynn is the hardest kind of a stu
dent and an omniverous reader. He IS
fond of politics and seems to enjoy the
pleasures of his striges. Though a close
student, Mr.. Glynn finds time for Sofia!
pleasures and is a member of the Albany
club, the Press club, the Red Men, and
a number of other organizations"
Comment on the above is scarcely nee
essary. Mr.. Glynn speaks for himself

hair and robust figure helped to complete
her disguise, and went to the cafe at
which the conspirators met. Here she

taking a seat at a table, she listened to
their conversation for a time. After a
while she addressed the leader, saying:

Us the deeper depths of the man.
Gus and | came in one Saturday after
noon to find Pelham strumming on a
guitar and chanting a weird thing which,,
it was explained to us, represented a
Cashmere love song. Gus was worried
that afternoon because he had to have
an illustration ready by Monday morning
and couldn't finish it. This trouble was
with one figure-a figure of q boy in q
Greek tunic in the act of vaulting With a
pole, l remember it was-and he could
not get that figure right for lack OF a

O course soap was no object, under
the circumstances; Pelham was given a
whole bar to do with as he pleased. And

with bare legs, developing on the draw

IT was a very good little study in the

himself.

New YMk'S Playhouse VICTORIA
OSCAR HAMMERsTEIN, THE ALADDIN OF VAUDEVILLE, HAS RUBBED
HIS LAMP AGAIN FOR THE MERRY MAKERS OF GOTHAM.

But Mr.. Hammerstein had not taught
himself to follow in the footsteps of any
man. He bought Harlem real estate
real estate so far up town that his friends
wondered if he was losing his mind. Then
he built houses, whole blocks of them IN
fact, and civilization followed him. Os-
car Hammerstein was the modern Midas
at whose touch everything was chansed
into gold.
In the fevered pursuit of dollars and
cents, however, his nature had not
changed. His life was prosiac. There is
nothing more practical han mechanical
inventions and real estate and to these he
had been devOting his existence. If he
had been less great he would have be-
come the matter-of-fact business man,
keen only for a bargain. But Mr.. Ham
merstein's success did not smother the
artist within hin and as soon as he felt
that he was financially able to indulge in
such Injuries these tendencies began to
exert themselves.
He wrote dramas. and he wrote operas.
His opera "kohinoor' was written, in
GLIDING the libretto, in As hours, and
"Margueritc' was written in his office at
the Olympia and sent dow page by
page for rehearsal while he was writing
more. Whatever the critics may say in
regard to the merit of his dramas and
his Oneras there can be no doubt that

what made the Gem all the more in
tefestlhS-l may say at once that his
name was P~elham-WaS the account Gus
gave us of the way of their meeting. 1t
was at San Francisco, at a hotel where
Gus had stayed some days waiting to
hear from some friends in New York who
had found work for him and We're going
to send him a remittance to bring him
across the continent. This remittance
had been delayed, and the hotef clerk was
beginning to give Gus unpleasant looks,
when Pelham, with whom he had a
billiard-room acquaintance of only 10
hours. asked him in the ~pleasantest man
ner If he didn't think the fellow at the
desk rather a cheeky customer
You see, that was Only Pelham's way
of cOaXing Gus into an admission of his
awkward predicament, and after that the
TWO OF them became very friendly, and
the Gem walked down the street to a
bank, came back to the clerks desk with
a bundle of big bills, and. after asking
for his own account, casually added, BY
the way, you might as we'll put my
friends with it; settle it all in a lump
That incident naturally formed a good
opening for friendship between Gus
Winshow and the casual young man.
When Gus asked what had made him do
such an unusual thing, he answered,
oh, l saw hat the fellow would make
himself a nuisance, you know. | under
stand all about delayed remittances and
that sort of thing. And you're an artist,
aren't GU"
Later on Pelham told Gus he had
known him for an artist by the shape of
his fingers. He was walking by a music
store with Gus on the same day that he
had settled the two hotel bills and was
suddenly taken with a fancy to so in and

was a very pleasant piano recital by Mr..
Pelham, at which all the statesmen and
half a dozen casual customers were pres

an earnest conversation betWeen Pelham
and a foreign-looking gentleman, and IN It
night Pelham told Gus he had been en-
gagged to take the place of an accompan-

Gus.

had just got through his tour with the

impression on those two bachelor sisters,
and it was none the less plain that he
enjoyed their company. He was con-

Gus, and in those days was a recognized

a great deal to me, for both from h

said Clearance in his most pedagogical
manner.
We had been walking together for the
sake of our digestions, and I had been
talking up a young man we both knew,
who, as 1 viewed the case. was starting
out on the road that leads to failure in
this life and perdition hereafter.
Try to break yourself of the habit"
Clarence went on, seeing that l had Moth
ing to say in my own defense. Il suffered
from it once. l can't say, as l should
like to, that it ever got me into trouble,
materially; but it did cause me a good
deal of veNation on more than one occa-
SION"
Then, when we had seated ourselves for
refreshments at a small table by a VIM
dow, where one got a satisfying view of
the sidewalk traffic of Broadway, Clar-
enc said, II feel very much inclined to
tell you the story of Pelham"
THANK you,' 1 said. I've read it. Tell
me another one"
Read it? oh. you're thinking of Bull
wer Lytton's novel. Psha. I'm thinking
of incidents that happened right here in
New York some ten or a dozen years ago.
Just listen now"
So l applied a match where it would
do the most good and prepared to listen.
The house where l met Pelham"
Clarence began, used to stand on lower
Fifth avenue. A great piano warehouse
occupies the site now. 1t had already
fallen from it's original dignity, as the
town mansion of a well known family,
and respectable, but not fashionable,
people, mostly of artistic ambitions, oc-
cupied rooms in it.
Il went there to look up young Gus
Winshow, whose elder brother I had
known, we'll, when Gus was a mere baby.
Gus had then just settled down in New
York, after drifting about in the west a
good deal. That was the time when Gus
first began to really make a living with
his pencil, and since then his living has
got better and better every year No., he
was not the subject of my mistaken pre-
diction. Just wait.
Gus introduced me to two very charm
ing young women, whom he called his
'chums' and colleagues of the brush In
those days the bachelor girl was not so
frequently met with as she is now, and
SO these two sisters, with their dignified,
but f~ree-and-easy manner, and their air
of perfect self-reliance, interested me
very much. They were a charming nov
city. sf
Il was asked to call there again and I
went. And it was that evening that I
met a young man whom Gus introduced
as the Gem He was not a fashion
plate beauty, by any means, this GEN.
but according to my way of judging, he
was about as prepossessing a young man
as l ever set Eyes on-dark hair and fine
gray eyes full of intelligence, with a dark
silky beard that he had allowed to grow
altogether in it's own way, as nature in
tended it. His manner, as l noted from
the start, was the very perfection of ease
and, to use foI once a French term
! don't often, you know-'bien-seance.' He
seemed to be always smiling a smile of
satisfaction, as if he found everything
