TANNING A PANS
The Effective Trick Phn, Was Once
Played on Franx List

The famous pianist aud composer Franz
List was once made the victim OF good
practical joke
1t happened in Rome AT the house Of q
certain princess who had invited num-.
her of guests To meet List and assured
them that they should have an opporiuni-
ty of enjoying his playing. The princess
was wen acquainted with two Of Lists
pecularities. He was so passionately
fond of playing that 1t was difficult for
him TO keep his fingers away from the
keys, but, nevertheless. like many other
p!anists. he expected TO be urgeqtly en-
treated and coaNeel before tie would con
descend 10 perform.
On this occasion his hostess was deter
mined to maze him play withou. word
OF entreaty Ii wa> agreed by the whole
company not eltiy that List should not
be asked 70 play. but that the subject OF
music should mol be mentioned. The piano
was even closed and locked and the key
hidden. List came and soon saw thai lie

expression vanished as he perceived that
for once he was not apparently regarded
as the lion OF the hour
Not word was spoken of music, and
List became visibly uneasy in mind. As
the evening wore on he grew more and
more excited. That his fingers were Itch

all. but nobody helped him ont. AT last,
when he could stand the strain no longer,
he took advantage OF a lull in the CONVEX
satiun. seated himself unhiddcn at the
piano and attempted to raise the lid.
The laughter and applause thar follow
ed the unsuccessful attempt showed List
that be was the victim of a conspiracy.
But his love for playing was too strong
for his resentment. The key was brought
and List played, to the delight of his en-

Capt. Carter was the social lion of
Savanna and married the daughter of
a millionaire.
At the Ebbitt house, Washington,
D. c., he lived luxuriously. dressed
in the finest style and drew his salary
while his case was being carried
through all the courts in an appeal
from all the findings of the court
martial. The United States engineers
handle all the appropriations for riv-
ers and harbors and give no bonds.
and this was the first charge and con-
yiction of fraud in the engineers de-
partment. Carter now appeals for a
suspension of his sentence on the
ground that he is suffering from neu-
rasthenia or nervous prostration. and
for the further reason that he is not
guilty of the offense charged, though
he was convicted by the military
court and has had his case passed
upon subsequently by the courts and
five judges and all confirmed the mill
tary verdict.
Five physicians have examined
Capt. Carter and find his nervous con-
ditiou no worse than would be ex-
pected from the confinement in prison
of healthy man. He will probably
serve his sentence and enjoy the dis
tinction of being the one man among
all his compeers who has etrayed hi;

years: A poor family in Boston over

bank in 1880, and the matter was for
gotten until 1857, when the accumu-
lated amount was 1882 81. 1t was
allowed to remain, and Jan. 16, 1901,
it was $1,S2O.10. The interest! al
lowed has been gradually reduced
from z to per cent. Now, if small
sums had been added to the principal
from time to time, the fund would
have grown to even much larger pro-
portions. Little sums properly ham

great fortunes.
