What Tips Do.

A man who lives on an up town
street where the houses cost from $685.
600 up was surprised not long ago by
seeing a man known to all New York
ers who patronize a well known res
taurant coming from a house several
doors below him with an air of proprie-
torship. This restaurant employee
stood on the sidewalk for a few mo-
ments and gaZed admiringly at his
house and then at its respectable
neighbors. For many years he has
been connected with a certain New
York restaurant as an attendant, and
his fees have been generous. He knew
all it's patrons by name, and his polite
ness and eagerness to render service
have made him well liked. Wondering
If this restaurant attendant, whom he
knew only by his first name, could by
any possibility have rented house on
that street, the old resident came out to
satisfy his curiosity.
Hello" he said. What are you do
ing up here"
Good morning, Mr.. Blank" said the
restaurant attendant. How do you
like my new house? l have just
bought it because l think that my fam
lily will like this neighborhood. You
are perhaps aware that my tips have
been generous for many years, and 1
can now afford to live in this house
very easily"
His questioner had no objection to
him as a neighbor, and he congratulate
ed the restaurant attendant on his
prosperity. The house had actually
been bought by tips, for its owners
salary probably averaged about SIS
week.-New York Sun.

He Crushed the Hecklers,

The man who asks questions and in
sists on their being answered is a IA
miliar presence at all party meetings
He is known as the heckler. The speak
er is not allowed to disregard him. If
a statement is disputed, it Is the ora
tors place to make it good. Any mem
Der of the audience may rise to his
feet and shout out a contradiction
whenever he feels like it, and by the
custom of English public life the
speaker is expected to make some re-
ply on the spot.
Mr.. Chamberlain was always dan
gerOus man to cross in debate, but the
personal feeling against him was so
bitter for years after his withdrawal
from the ranks of the separatists that
many an unhappy man was driven to
tilt against his shield. 1t was delicious
to watch Mr.. Chamberlain handling
of the situation. He would pause when
the interruption grew serious and give
the heckler chance to make himself
we'll heard. Now If you will allow
me l will ask that gentleman to get
upon a chair that we may all have the
pleasure of seeing him" A dozen anx-
ious hands would hoist the objector in
to unwelcome prominence. Now,
sir" came the clear passionless voice,
will you kindly speak up? 1 should
be sorry if any one missed what you
have to say"
The heckler, now quite unnerved,
would stammer out something, and
Mr.. Chamberlain, listening with ma
licious smile, would quietly readjust
his eyeglass and, turning to the au-
dience. fling out a reply-cool, cutting
and decisive.-Sydney Brooks in Har-
per's Magazine.

Those Wonderful Pictures.

During the period.of two hours and a
half through which the Jeffries-Shar-
Key contest lasted PIC, 900 films were
recorded, showing the modern gladia-
tors in that numb of positions. The
retina of the human eye, which is a
natural camera, receives so impress
sions a second. The biograph pic
lures were recon ded at rate of % a
second, nearly the full number of the
normal vision. 1t may be judged
from this fact that no apprecia bile
shading of a blow or a movement by
the com batants are missing. Ia the
reproduction seven and quarter
miles of films are used. The light
under which the com bat took place
was shed by 400 arc lights, with a
total candle power of 500, 900. This
dazzling brilliancy at the actual scene
is slightly subdued in the picture, but
is strong enough to show with unmis-
taxable distinctness every motion of
the fighters. 1t also shows the fea-
lures of every man who was at the
ringside. The pictures will be at
Harper's theatre tomorrow evening.
