Their Appearance Decefves All but
the Old Hunter.
p Next to the difficulty Of comprehend
ing the wonderful senses of the deer is
that of understanding how one looks in
the woods. Your ideas are necessarily
taken from pictures or from stuffed
deer or tame ones in a park. You are
almost certain to be looking for a deer,
whereas you might better be looking
for anything else. In the woods you
seldom see half of a deer and generally
much less, often only a part Of the
shoulder, o. only an ear v e a log or a
leg under it, a bit of rump projecting
from a bush OF a head and bit of the
neck reaching up for leaves. The ar

STORY OF A FAMOUS POEM
How Eray's .sElegy'' Made It's First
Public

How Gray's s'Elegy'' Made It's First
Public Appearance.
One of the most celebrated Of eight
zenith century poems, Gray's "Elegy,"
made it's first public appearance in the
shape of a hurriedly printed pamphlet,
which was sold for sixpence. This pub
LEGATION was the result of a curious
race for priority. Gray completed the
poem some time in 1850, but had no
immediate intention Of publishing it.
A copy, however, found it's way into
er and proprietor Of the Magazine Of
Magazines, a recently established peri
odical, and he wrote to the poet stat
ing his intention of printing it in his
magazine, and asking his cooperation.
The proposal was not at all agreeable
to Gray, but, seeing that publication was
inevitable, he wrote at once to Horace
Walpole explaining the circumstance
and asking him to get Dodsley to print
it Immediately, but without the au-
thor's name. Walpole handed the
poem to Dodsley on Feb. IL, 1851, and
IN the Goth a copy was in Gray's hands
at Cambridge, so that it was probably
published in London on the 18th Or
10th. The Magazine of Magazines for
February, according to the then u.s.
tom, was published toward the end of
the month, and may have come out on
the same day. The rival editions must
have appeared, it is pretty safe to say,
within a few hours Of each other. The
action Of the magazine editor was
hardly justifiable, but it laid the read
ing world under a debt of obligation
by forcing the poem into print. Sew
eral original copies of the "Elegy" in
the poets writing are in existence.
One, which was sold for 81, 15O at
Sotheby's in 1875, was especially in
teresting from the number of correc-
tons and erasures made by the au-
thor's hand. In this manuscript Gray
had substituted "Cromwelr' and mil
tom for "Casar and "Tully'' as he had
originally written. His friend Mason
is said to have suggested this altera-
ton as we'll as the title of the poem,
which Gray at first simply called
Standardization Penny.

n PIANO TUNER.
Why He Left In q Hurry After Fin

Why He Left In a Hurry After Fin
ishing His Job. 8
A lady stepped into a piano ware
room recently to engage a tuner, but
before doing so insisted upon the stron-
gest assurance that the tuner was re-
sponsible. She was so determined that
the manager became curious to know
the reason for her disbelief in the re-
liability of tuners. She gave her ex-
perience with the last tuner she had.
and this is the story as she told it:
He had finished tuning the piano
when he looked up and said:
""Your instrument was in awful con
dition. You ought to have sent for me
sooner" s
"1t was tuned only three months
ago"
"Then the man who did it certainly
didn't know his business"
"No"
mo, ma'am. He had better be do
ing street cleaning than tuning pianos.
Why, my dear madam, a delicate in
strument like a piano needs fingers
| equally delicate to handle it, combined
with an ear of unerring accuracy. The
individual who attempted to tune this
instrument last evidently possessed
neither Of these. In fact, / am free tic
say he did it more harm than good"
Indeed" &t.&
Indeed he did. May l ask who il
was who SO abused your instrument"
ut was yourself"
Madam. you are wrong. ! never
tuned a piano in this house before"
Probably not, but you tuned that in
strument nevertheless. or made a botcl
of it in attempting to do SO. 1t be
longs to Mrs. Jones, who sent it here
while she is out of town. She told nj
you always had tuned it and to sent
for you when"-
But the unhappy man fed with sucl
haste as to make his coattails a goot
substitute for a card table.-Philadel

1t is the golden age Of the nation,
and prosperity and power unprecedent-
ed are ours.
All these things, which we prophesisd
would come to pass when the money
volume Of the world was sufficient for
the requirements Of mankind, have
come to pass; and that without the re-
monetization Of silver.
We cannot escape from the force Of
the conclusion. Either that we were
mistaken and that something besides
the quality Of money IS the handspring
Of prosperity; or else that the worlds
money volume is being increased ade-
quately and sufficiently.
1t matters not which horn of the di-
lemma We may choose TO take, it car
rles with it the essential conclusion
that while existing conditions last, al
least, the silver question as an issue
has passed from the stage Of events.
In this connection the bald state
ment Of the average annual production
Of gold since 1895, as compared with
the average annual production Of both
gold and silver prior u that date is sig
nificant.
The worlds production Of gold for
the six years from 1895 to and includ-
ing the year 1900, aggregated ST.
486.771,OOo, or an average annual
production Of STAT. 795 900. For the
twenty-five years from 1873 to 1895
the total production Of gold was ST.
SIT ,428, 900. and Of silver 2,l26,-
645,0OO ounces. The average annual
production Of gold for that period was
therefore Has 900, 900; and Of silver
90. sos 900 ounces, which, reckoned at
$l29 per ounce (lts coinage value
under bimetallism, would have
amounted to 1929. $685. 900. The un-
%avoidable deduction from these incon-
trovertable figures is:
That the production Of gold in the
world since 1895 exceeds by some
nine million dollars annually the com
bined yearly production of both gold
and silver for the twenty-five years pre-
vious to that date. In other words

A Rival Of Ping Pong.

Table bowls, practically a replica OF
the popular outdoor summer game, will
probably prove formidable rival this
winter to pingpong, says the London
Chronicle. Bowls on table is a sci
entific pastime, and it also has this
recommendation that there is not the
continual search on the floor for the
balls of which there is full set, all
biased the same as at the ordinary
game, but they and Jack" are of
course in miniature. The game has al
ready met with much success at the
Crystal and Alexandra palaces. There
can be but little doubt that when the
pastime becomes more widely known
and INDUCED in its popularity will rap
idly increase.

NEW RUSSIAN SECT.
Belief and Rise of the EnOChiteS
In ZariZyn.

A new religious sect mas arisen in the
government of Zarizyn, and so the Rus
sian authorities have begun to take en-
ergetic steps to check its progress,
writes the st. Petersburg correspondent
Of the New York Times. The followers
of the sect call themselves Enochites.
Through their disciples they dissem-
mate among the peasants a terrible
fear of the approaching end Of the
world.
AS signs of universal calamity they
adduce all the latter day manifesto
tons such as railways, telegraphs and
telephones. They declare that in every
gramophone sit several little devils and
one large devil on the top. They affirm
that the prophet Elijah has again APP
peared on the earth and lives in the
form of Father John of KrOnstadt, near
st. Petersburg. The agents Of the anti
christ imprint their seal upon men,
though not upon the body, but upon
a paper which they must carry with
them and which is called their pass.
Finally the Enochites teach that the
prophet Enoch is already upon the
earth, though as yet he has not been
seen by anybody. AS soon as he has
appeared to his disciples the world will
be destroyed. SO far as the Enochites
are able to see, but two years yet re-
main before the destruction Of the
world.
In order to check the pernicious activ-
ity of the sect the government has dis
patched forty Russian travelling priests
to the government of Zarizyn.
