! TENDING BAR.
Much Larger Salaries Paid Than Is
Generally Supposed.

Much Larger Salaries Paid Than I.
Generally Supposed.
The fellow who looks with disfa.
vor upon, the business. Of tending ban
makes a financial mistake at least,
said an obserVant citizen, to New
IOrleans Times-Democrat reporter,
for some of these men get salaries
that are looked upon as rather large
/ BY the average man. There are bar
keepers in the United States who get
as much as the members Of the federal
congress. 7 picked up a German pa
per published in New Yorka few days
ago, and I was astonished to find an
advertisement in there for barkeep-
fer, and it was stated that the salary
would be 500 per week. There are
many l barkeepers in New York. at the
more swell places that make S4o0 or
$500 a month. This not bad salary.
vi course there are many who get
much less, the salaries ranging from
S25 to $500 a month. Thesame con-
dltlons prevail in Europe in the larger
places that are frequented by the
wealthy. Of course there is a good
substantial reason for paying these
large salaries in the more noted places
OF theeountry. The barkeeperin in this
age has to be something more than an
awkward handler of beer mugs and
plain old whisky glasses. Mixing
drinks is one of the new arts, and there
are many drinks in the late schedule. |
In the more aristocratic places the bar
tender must be past master in the
art of mixing. He must know the in
gradients Of all the drinks, and he
must n get them up quickly, daintily,
gracefully, else he viii offend the
drinking dilettante. This condition
has brought about a demand for the
pest men in the business, and has de-
z''eloped g spirit Of competition be-
Ween the finer places ofthe country.
Here inFNew Orleans there are many
aligghh-priced alighh bartenders, some of them
getting as much as S175 month, and
here are many who get 500 and
Sl25. So when il comes down to fba |
question Of finance, the position OF
is somewhat Il the man
tudies his business and manages to-
all into the right berth. ~These1
hanged conditions are responsible
or the fact that the barkeepers of this
ay are such reatimproFements over
le barkeepers of few years ago.
hey are as a rule men of refinement
nd education, and they are nice, pol
he'd, gentlemanly fellows

HIS ELBOW SLEEVES.

=
Elbow sleeves represent the last
1901 summer fashion for men in the
borough of Brooklyn. The style,
which in some ways will appeal to
many, has been set by a sedate New
York business man, who resides in the
borough Of churches, and who is the
last man who would have been expect
ed to meddle with the fashions. It
would never have happened if Mr..
brooklyn, of the Heights, had not
fallen a victim to the summer shirt
bargain habit.
The summer shirt bargain habit is
epidemic at this time Of the year.
1t attacks a man something after the
manner of hay fever, and for a couple
OF weeks or a month is rampant. It
could be escaped if the victims would
keep away from the vicinity of the
largefshops and give up the newspa-
pers. The first is possible, but the
latter is not. A man who knows his
susceptibility 8 will try to skip the

Joseph Hill, of Duncan, was in town Monday and says that the smallpox, Cuban itch, or whatever it was, has about run its course in that community. John Wood has just recovered from a severe spell of it. Bart Tipton and Tim Quinn, recently recovered, are slightly marked. B. r. Billingsley is just recovering from a very severe spell of it, and is just able to get around. A strange thing about the disease is that several people have had it sec ond time this season. Mir. Hill says that the Mexicans, who have had much experience with smallpox, pro- nounced the disease white smallpox, :" which they say is the mildest form of the disease.

Mrs. Hart, q widow lady and family, arrived in Clifton last week. and some members of the family were almost inn mediately taken down with smallpox. On Tuesday morning they were put in carriages and taken back to Duncan. Many of the Duncan people now admit that the disease is smallpox, as the Clifton doctors all agreed that it was in the first place. Had the advice of the Clifton doctors been taken at first, and the few cases then existing there quarautined, the people of-. Duncan wound themselves have been spared much annoyance and expense. They have nearly all had it now. but it will continue to exist until cold weather comes, when many deaths may be eX- pected from it. While all the doctors have not agreed as to what the disease is. they have and do all agree that it is courageous, therefore the sooner it is stamped out the better.

Still another two foot vein Of copper glance ore Was struck al the Standard this week. making the fourth vein of that class of ore struck since work was commenced last spring. This strike was made in the incline shaft which was being sunk on small stringer of ore from the surface. With little more development the Standard will be able to take out sufficient amount of rich ore to pay expenses. which is very unusual in copper mining. The Standard paople have every reason to congratulate themselves on their most extraordinary run of good luck.
