Busy Choir Soloists.

Roman Catholic and Episcopal
churches have the credit of providing
the finest and most elaborate music,
but the finest music IN New York is
heard In the Jewish synagogues. 1t
is chiefly sung. however. by the best
singers of the Christian churches. who
thriftily double up and draw two
salaries. a good arrangement for both
temples and churches. albeit the
churches pay double and sometimes
treble the salaries paid by the temples.
The salaries of soloists in the larger
American cities range from $500 to
81. 500. the latter sum being paid In
single instance All engagements date
from May l, which Is moving time for
church singers as well as house NOV
ers. Their church salaries form the
basis of the soloists' incomes, but
many fees are earned as a result OF
church work, Weddings and funerals
yield quite number. and private re-
citals at the home entertainments of
millionaire church members are
weighted with the golden fruit. There
are also whole orchards of concerts
and oratorios for those capable OF
shaking the trees.-Success.

Fairfield.

Fairfield at the annual town meeting
Monday, adopted the curfew ordinance.
IL was advocated by Senator George G..
Weeks. Hon. V. X. Conner opposed
the law as An unnecessary expense and
an admission on the part of parents
that they are unable to properly restrain
their children. Mrs. F. n. Brown who
was in the gallery upon invitation
briefly advocated the measure.
The ordinance provides that children
under l6 years old shall not be upon the
streets or 10 any store or shop or public
place in the town after O'clock from
May to Oct. 81, or after o'clock from
Nov. to April 80, unless accompanied
by parent, guardian or some person
having legal custody. One bell in Fair
field village and one at Shawmut are
to be rung at 10 minutes before the
hours above named. A fine of not less
than one dollar nor more than five dol
lars shall be the penalty for violation.
Work is being rushed on the repairs
which are now going on at the wooden
mill 10 this town, and it is ex-
pected that the mill will be running 10
the course of four or five weeks. When
the repairs are completed, the cloth
will be manufactured here from the
beginning.

of my work, If you care for it."
II should be more than pleased to

you will write your name in it"
IAN right. There is a bookstore
Just around the corner. IL you will ac-
company me. we will go there and get
it. | don't happen to have copy in
my office just now"
After they had stopped to glance at
some of the new things in the book
store the author hailed a clerk and,
pushing his chest out very far. asked
for the novel that he had written.
Eyes. SIR" the clerk said. I'VE have
1t around here somewhere, believe,
but you are the first one who has ever
asked for a copy, and it may take me
some time to find it. Wouldn't some
thing else do just as well? We have a
great many better books at the same
price."-Chicago Times Herald.

A Tragedy of Mont BInnc.

The story of the destruction of, the
baths of St. Geryais at the foot of
Mont Blanc, in 1892. Is told in THE
Annals of Mont Blanc" This was one
of the calamtes that could scarcely
have been predicted or ayerted.
Owing to the stoppage of the sub
glacial drainage. in some way never
aScertained. a lake was formed under
the Tete Rousse glacier, in which an
enormous body of water was pent up
at spot 10000 feet above the sea lev
ell Between l and o'clock on the
night of July y. 1892, the ice that had
held the lake gave way.
The water swept in torrent OF ire
mcndous force over the Desert de
Pierre Ronde, gathering up thousands
of tons of rock and stones in Its course.
1t passed with a terrific roar under the
hamlet of Bionnassay. which 1t did not
in.lure. destroyed half the village of
Bionnay on the highroad between Con
tamines and ST. Gervais and. tearing
up trees as it went along, joined the
main river of the Bon Naat.
OllOW ing tue river Ded anu ucSlio9
ing on its way the old Pont du Diable,
it hurled its seething flood of water
timber, stones and mud upon the solid
buildings of the ST. Gervais baths and
crushed them into fragments. Then.
crossing the Chamonix road. it spread
itself out in the form of hideous fan
over the valley of the Arve, destroying
part of the village of lie Fayet In its
way.
Such was the catastrophe of st. Ger
vas which claimed over 100 victims.
Utter ruin was everywhere. The once
lovely gardens of the baths were five
or six feet deep in mud, fine trees bad
been snapped like reeds and enormous
blocks of stone were strewn over the
dreary waste.

"Oh. l shan't try to stop you" he
quietly replied I'll simply report to
the police that my wife has mysteri-
ously disappeared. They'll want your
description. and | will give it. You
wear No. I shoes; you have an extra

in silence. Then it was plain to be
