THE COLLECTOR WHO KNEW
An Illustration of the Danger of Be

l. Ing Too Self CONFIDENT.
''The trouble with you fellows is
you want things, but you know moth
ing about 'em. You come ver here
and carry home a lot Of truck, that a
European collector wouldn't give
house room, and when you see a really
good thing you don't know it, or you
won't pay a price for it unless some
dealer makes you. You see, you don't
know; that's what's the matter; how
can you? Nobody in America wanted
antiques before the Centennial. If
you'd lived here twenty years, like me,
you'd learn something, you'd find out
that collecting isn't a thing Of money,
but knowing"
We had been walking in Venice

fish stall in the little outdoor market
on which we had just emerged,
There's a gem, not very old, but Of

a good deal for it; but you'd "a passed

You can never tell what you may pick
up-if you only know"
We had scarcely reached the stand
when. the collector thrust out his hand
with the swiftness Of a hawk darling
on it's prey, and swooped upon a little
Jewel box.
"Carnelian! Russian, I should say,
from the Ural mountains. It's not Of
great value, but it's a pretty little
thing, if it was cleaned up. It's mine,
anyway" To the keeper Of the stall:
"Quanto?"
The Venetian slowly uncoiled him
self and came down from the church
steps, where he had been sleeping.

tri1e? The signore knows its value
better than I, and he'll be generous Z"

.coRNIsH IN THE FIRsT WARD
He discussed Police Commission and
Contrasts II with Park
Board.

An impromptu meeting was held IN the
southern part Of the First ward last night
for informal discussion Of the political sit
uation. Hon. =. J. Cornish. as speaker Of
the occasion, among other things said:
Il am pleased 10 find that so many peo-
pie arc either consciously OF unconsciously
arguing IN favor OF my candidacy. Friends
Of the new Board of Police Commissioner
complain that the old board was too much
in politics. Friends OF the old board COM
plain that the new board is too much IN
politics. A third element complains that
we changed simply the men and interests
to be favored instead of the faulty sys-
tenn. II Is to be hoped that none Of these
complaints are well founded. All such ar
guments lead to the conclusion that the
Board OF Park Commissioners has been one
board that has consistently pursued the
only right course. Although It has fewer
restraints imposed by law upon Its action
than any other department Of the city gov
eminent and could EASILY shape it's work so
as to employ several hundred men at cleo
tion times, It has never attempted to in
terfere with its employees freedom Of ac-
ton or. make their employment depend
upon their political services. II has never
been suspected Of favoritism, log rolling
or other improper conduct"

ping long enough to become acquainted, be

whose election by unanimous choice Of the
order seems to be certain at this time.
Mr.. Cronk's candidacy is a tribute to q
man who deserves well at the hands Of the
Elk Of the country, for his unfaltering
work for the order at all times. As one
Of the influential members of the order he
put on foot the movement which cemented
in eternal friendship the factions which
~unhappily threatened to bring the order
into the civil courts Of the land. and, the
work he did then has been remembered by
all who attribute the pleasing result In no
