Poles Weather Prophets.

Everyone has noticed at times that the
telegraph lines strung along the streets
and railways are singularly musical,
emitting a humming sound that can be

noise was made by messages passing. over
the wires. Most educated people know
that this Is a silly theory, but they will
be surprised to find that their own theory
is about as i'll founded. DR.. Laska, a
Polish meteorologist, declares that the
noise is not given out by the wind at all,
but that 1t is caused by unseen terrestrf-
al changes caused by meteorological in
f1uences. He hopes by close study OF
the sounds to be able to discover means
of foreseeing what the weather is to be.
Whatever theory he formulates in this
direction 1t is to be hoped that it will
be more reliable than the meteorological
forecasts which have hitherto been given
to the world. There is something hum1llat-
ing in the fact that the English weather
defies the scientist. The meteorological Of

have enjoyed-or otherwise-and thatgI is
not very consoling. s14H

WHEN 4 NAN HIS HIS LIBEL ON

The rich lard lady had a number OF
singers who waited in an ante room, but
her piece de resistance was no less
lion than that great Hungarian pianist
(born in Irving place., Ignace Zabritski.
She had engaged him through Herr VOL
fran Waldvogel, and happen to know
that he was to receive $500 for playing
once.
Now, If she had a memory for faces
she would have recognized him as soon
as he came in-and yet 1 don't know. You
see Herr Waldvogel who is a real Ger
man gentleman, blond, six feet tall and
with the manners of an Austrian noble,
came with Zabritski. and he presented
him to the lard lady with tremendous i'm
pressiveness, and Zabritski put on his
most exclusive air and seemed about to
die with ennui on the spot, and that
fetched the lard lady all right (if you
will pardon such a free use of English).
But the thing that settled it was when
the Countess Sagoni went up to Zabritski,
whom she knew very well, and chatted
most bohemdanly with him in very choice
italian. After that every one in the room
was hauled up and presented to him, and
then he sat down and played a pathetic
thing by Tsehaikowsky, and many people
who knew it was pathetic were moved to
tears-right in the midst of their CONVEX
odtlOll-dllu ctllcI II WotS ctII ONCl Illc iol u
lady shook hands with Zabritski most eff
fusively and asked him If he knew any
other artists of "dear old Hungary" who
could do turn. She also said she adored
talent" And Zabritski remembered his
sense of humor just in time and told her
he had a compatriot named Braunski, who
had a glorious bass voice, and he thought
he could get him to sing for 5000 as a
great favor, although he was simply visit
ing this country and was doing nothing
of a professional kind.
OF course you know that when the little
basso came to the house he had his label
on (the wrong label. naturally, as Brown.
or Braunski. the basso. was born near
Gowanus Canal, over in Brooklyn.
But the lard lady made much of him,
you can bet your seSterces, and the Count
ess Sagoni, who knew a good voice when
she heard 1t, no matter where man had
happened to be, born had him sing at
one of her Sundays, and that was the
beginning of his present successful Ca
reer.
Oh these labelS

vored few who attended her really mu-
steal musicales.
Her tone toward Zarbritski softened, and
she told him that he could come in and
sit down behind the grand piano If he
found it too cold in the ante-room. Ia
BRITISH had never sat behind a grand piano
In his life. and as he is fond of new sem
sations he accepted her invitation and hid
himself from the chattering throng, and
at last Brown came in and sang to Ia
britski's accompaniment, and several
times his voice could be heard above the
conversation, although there were nearly
a hundred talking and he was the only
one singing.
After the music was all finished the lit
tie basso and his humble friend Zabritski.
went away without a word from the lard
lady, because she was talking blue
streak to an aristocrat from above Fifty
ninth street, who was as freshly ar1sto-
cratic as newly minted coin. and for the
same reason-she belonged to the coinage
of 1903.
| But the butler gave Brown SIS in three
bills as he went out and so he was
happy-for he needed the money.
Time works miracles, and some time
later the lard lady gave an evening con-
cert, and having by rare good luck met
the Countess Sagoni, she invited her. and
the Countess Sagoni, having fondness
for freaks, accepted the invitation. One
must relax sometimes.

my of Music, of New England parents. Is
the soul of good nature, and. except
when he Is on concert tour, he hasn't
particle Of big head. He once told me
that when he is on a concert tour he
finds that certain amount Of bighead-
edness is expected of him by his audi
enceS in order to convince them that he
is the real goods, and so sometimes he
refuses to play on piano after he has
sat down to it and makes the audience
wait until better one is brought up
from the local warerooms.
OF course, the papers next day call
him a crank, but they admit that he Is
man of tenacity of purpose. and that
is beloved American trait, SO he
scores a hit whenever he is cranky that
way. But the crankfness is all Fassuffl-
ed and he often laughs about 1t among
his friends and says, for the matter of
that, one piano is as bad as another
when one is playing off the main line.
All this is when he has his label on.
Now I'll tell you about something that
happened when his label was off and
he was just an ordinary person.
There was a struggling basso by the
name of Brown who was DESTROYS OF
eneCL1nS an entrance InlO society "
the extent of being engaged to sing at
swagger and noisy receptions of the
elite-the kind who pronounce 1T
"elight"-and one day he came to Ia
BRITISH, whom he had known for years,
with a woful tale about his fear of
losing an engagement to sing at the
house of a rich lard lady on account
of his accompanist having sprained his
wrist, and would Zabritski go incog
and play for him?
And Of course Zabritski would, just
as willingly as he would have done it
when he had some hair and was Strug-
Cling himself, and SO little basso
Brown departed in fine spirits
Now it happened that the great Ia
BRITISH arrived first at the home of the
rich lard lady-who was a newly rich
er, by the way-and he gave her to un-
derstand that he was only poor worm
of an accompanist, and at that her
manner, which had been commit
tai, changed to frigidfty and she sent
him haughtily into an ante-room off
the main hall to await the arrival Of
Brown. Zabritskis sense Of humor is
often his salvation, and he who is used
to being it in the center of a drawing
room, with ladies falling all over one
another in their efforts to shake the
hand that was taught by Liszt, went
meekIy into the ante-roOm and ShlVer-
ed in a draught while he waited.

In the person of Andrew Henry Leader,
81 years of age, and living in the little viii
lage of Belgrade, Blue Earth county Min
nesota, is claimed the oldest German
soldier In tl1esUnlted States. Leader is
veteran of the German warTof lS4S, and
fled to America soon after It's close. HIS
early residence in AmericaSWas at Mil
waukee where he served as county COM
missioner and superintendent of poor. He
settled in 1868 ; in Nicolletscounty, Min
nesota. and is now living with daughter
at Belgrade.
Leader first saw the light in the year
1917 in the city of Madgenburge, Germany,
says the Mankato Review. At the age
Of fifteen he graduated from the Right
school or gymnasium, which is equivalent
to about the first two years of state uni
versity course. His father desired very
much that he should early choose a voca-
ton and especially that Of minister of the
gospel. The young Leader, however, had
studied and thought for himself and had
ideas of his own. Schlegel, Kant Rous-
seau and other philosophers of the time
were familiar to him and as result he
could not accept the doctrines of the
church as then taught. When he under
went examination for ordination to the
ministry, while showing exceptional
learning ana capaDll1ty. MS answers 10
doctrinal questions were altogether too
liberal and he was rejected. Not re-
GREETING the outcome in the least himself,
as his conscience would not have permit
ted him to preach what he did not believe,
he at once turned enthusiastically to a
commercial career. He was then ap-
prenticed to the commercial house of
Sindelhewer, the broadcloth merchant, in
his native city,.

military career. ALI young men in the
fatherland are obliged to present them

that he voluntarily made application at
the age of 10 and was accepted. which by

left her chattering guests and came in
and spoke to him; in fact she scolded
him rather hard because the basso was
late and Zabritski with a beautiful as
sumption Of servility said: I'm very
sorry, madame, but this is the time
for us poor artists to make hay, and
my friend, Monsieur Brown. is singing
at q reception at the Countess Sa-
gonis. He sings but one number and
will be here soon. / hope you will ex-
cuse me for taking up room here until
he comes"
Now all this was innocent fiction. for
the little basso was not singing at the
Countess Sagoni's, although he would have
loved to. He was merely behind time.
But the lard lady pricked up her ears
at mention of the countess name, as she
belonged to a real aristocracy, centuries
old, which ripened on the shores Of the
Adriatic. and the newly richer would
have given her tiara to be one of the ia

Sentinel Crows.

Crows are becoming daily feature OF
spectacular life on Main street. and the
novelty of seeing the -hued fellows
from the country foraging on the princl-
pal thoroughfare has evoked considerable
interest Every morning for the last two
or three weeks a flock of hungry chaps
get around about o'clock and for a solid
hour then tend right to business picking
up grub. The site which they frequent
is a vacant lot owned by Mrs. A. E. Hen
derson On Main street, opposite the house
of Philip Pfaffman the Chsfry Valley
manufacturer. Scraps of rubbish from
neighboring houses are dumped on the
lot about every day, and the crows know
it and gather for meals. One of the gang
keeps watch from a tree near by while the
others scratch busily and collect a break
fast. By and by the sentinel takes q
chance at the pickings and one of the
earlier eaters stays on guard. When the
picket has had feed the flock flies away.
Old residents and milkmen say that the
cold weather and snow covered ground
make 1t very hard for the crows to get
enough to eat and hunger drives them
to the city.-Worcester (Mass.) Spy.
