A short time ago a public cere. mony was to be carried out at Landshut, an important town in Lower Bavaria, A new public school was to be formally opened, and all Landshut quivered with measurable anticipation. Unfor. tunately the festivities had to be put off at the last moment. The school could not be opened. No scholar could take his seat upon the brandne forms. The land was in the grip of winter, and the architect had forgotten to provide single chimney throughout the building.

NO TIPS FOR HIS WATERS.
New York Restaurant Man Makes c Discovery-Then Came Change
 in His System.

My walters get very few tips," said a downtown restaurant man, "and 1 don't have to print notices to my customers that they are not expected to tip the waiter. It is really very simple and within the power of restaurant manager to stop the custom If he wants to do so," says the New York Times.
 "You see, when a customer tips a waiter regularly he expects to get extra service or to have his check sealed down, and the res taurant is beaten by the game. ID other words, the tipping of wait ers took money out of my pocket.
 "I said nothing, but kept my eyes open for d few days, and l saw that it was in handing the check to the customer that the walters got their tips. When they were doubtful of man they actually made him ask for his check. That observation made 1t simple.
 "Without a word about tips l made a rule that when a GUS toner was served the waiter should immediately lay down by his plate the check for the amount ordered and change it subsequent ly if he ordered more. That left no opportunity for the waiter to dumbly suggest that his hand was open, and it made it easy for the customer to get away without giv ing coin to the man who had served him.
 "In a week tipping had practic ally ceased in my restaurant and the checks began to increase to the right size. All paid for what they got and others increased their orders as soon as they were relieved of paying tribute tosthe waiter. 1t worked admirably and helped my business. Restaurant men are foolish not to stop the tipping imposition They can do 1t If they want to-"

WAS WAsHlNcroN's STAFF.
Interesting History of Cane Once Owned by Father of His
 Country.

One of the things that passed through the Baltimore fire un- scathed was cane once owned by George Washington and now the property of Maj. H. H. Raleigh. The cane reposed during the fire in the vault of the Merchants Credit and Collection Bureau at Liberty and German streets, says the New York Sun.
 "In Gen. Washington's will" said Maj. Raleigh, 1.-two canes are mentioned. One was bequeathed to Robert Washington, of Chop tank, Va, who gave it to Robert Thompson, relative.
 "Later it passed to Miss Kittie Thompson, sister of Robert Thompson, and finally Peter Gra- son Washington of New York, who was assistant secretary of the treasury under Guthrie, was the owner of the stick.
 "Peter Grason Washington be- queathed the cane to the oldest male heir of Gen. George Wash ington who was living at the time of his death. The late Mrs. Ra- leigh was a granddaughter of a Mrs. McPherson, of Washington, D. C., who before her marriage was a Miss Washington. After some contention it was proved that Mrs. Raleigh's brother, whose family name was Edwards, was the person entitled to the pos. session of the cane. 1 purchased the relic for my wife, and when she died it became my property"
 Although described as a cane. the relic is really a staff. It Is of bamboo, about four and a half feet long and just such a stick as Washington might have. used in tramping over his broad acres in Mount Vernon. The Washington coat-ofarms adorns it's gold head. anditis encircled with gold band, upon which is inscribed:
 "Willed to Robert Washington and by him to descend to Peter Grason Washington, of New York"
 As soon as the embers had cooled, Maj. Raleigh hastened to the vault and was much relieved to find after the cane had been re- moved from the chamois skin case that it had not been scOrched.

SHARK AS A MESSENGER.
Carried Newspaper to Sydney Outdis' taucing Steamer Conveying Im-
 portant Item of News.

The story of the discotery of human bones and bangles in the interior of the crocodile captured at Fort Johnson, Rhodesia, brings to mind another story which may appositely be recalled at the present juncture. Every. body has heard of "Mrs. Macquar. rie's chair," as they call the east. ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney harbor. There, says the St. James, Gazette, it was that poor emigrant, in pre-cable days, killed and towed ashore a shark, cut him up, and found London newspa. per in the internals. In the paper was the announcement of the war between France and Germany. The shark had outdistanced the steamer by which the mail was coming, and here the discoverer had the fact to. himself. He gave his information to a wealthy wool dealer, who bought all the sea sons clip at 9d. per pound, and sold at 3s. after the news of the war had arrived by the ordinary channel He cleared, it is said, four millions sterling by the deal. The man who killed the shark and extracted the news of price---well, he received a battered silk hat and d five shilling piece and unre. strained liberty as tothe disposal of the shark.

WHO GETS MOCHA COFFEE 2
Most of It Taken by sheiks and Gov ernors of Arabia-Little Is
 Ever Exported.

"I don't believe there is a pound of genuine Mocha coffee on this continent" Mir. c. T. Hilli glas, a coffee merchant, informs me, says a writer in the St. Louis Globe Democrat, Cor that 200 peo- pie in this country have ever tast- ed it, unless they have at some time visited Arabia and drunk it at the table of some sheik or gov ernDr.
 "The true Mocha is the finest coffee grown; it has a delicious fla vor that makes it as superior to the very best of other brands as silk is superior to cotton, but the crop is extremely limited, and hardly ever more than satisfies purely local demands. Some Arabian coffee may find it's way to this country; 1t may even be ca&ed Mocha, but it is not the real arti- cle, I am sure, and none of us has ever had it here, though we get the best of other brands that are grown in Ceylon and Java, and that means some mighty fine cof fee. It is not Mocha, however, for the whole of the true Mocha crop each year wouldn't supply the cof- fee demands of one ward in St. Louis alone for a period of six months. The best and plumpest berries of the Mocha growth, those with the most exquisite flavor, are eagerly taken by the governors and sheiks in the vicinity, and they have to get their orders in in advance, so that they may be sure of their annual sup ply. The second grade berries go to the wealthier citizens, not of the governing class, and t third, or poorest, grade of berries, which. are not much superior to the best Java coffee, are sold to the people, and the demand invariably ex ceeds the supply. {.
 "Sometimes a few pounds Of this cheapest grade of Mocha finds its way to Constantinople, but it is very, very seldom, and l don't believe an ounce of it has ever gotI any further west than that. Ipre- sume that if, by some hook or crook, pound of the real plump berried Mocha were landed in this country it would sell for price that even a Rockefeller might,hes- itate to pay. We get the best cof- fee grown, apart from the Mocha, but the local conditions which pre- vail where that coffee is raised prevent us from obtaining any, and l hardly think the real thing will ever be found in our markets"

When the petals of the great laurel magnolia are touched. however lightly, the result is a brown spot, which develops in a few hours. The fact is taken ad- vantage of by the South Ameri- can lover, who pulls magnolia flower, and on one of it's pure white petals writes a motto or message with a sharp-pointed pen. cil. Then he sends the flower, the young lady puts 1t in vase of wa ter, and in three or four hours the message written on the leaf be- comes perfectly visible. and re mains so.

ADVICE TO THE sHfrIEsS'
Hard Sense, If Persisted In, Will Over come Hard Luck-Donf Tell
 Your Troubles.

A very keeu pOlltlCldu SOluS abroad for an extended tour ad- vertised for 0 man to relieve him of the smaller worries of travel ing, says the London Post. He re- duced the applicants to one, and was about to complete the nego- tiations when the fortunate per son began to tell him of his ca- reer, his ambitions, opportunities and mtsfortunes-a genuine hard luck story. The politician listened for awhile, and then suddenly in- terposed: "I find that l do not want you," and when pressed for his reason, added: q never hire bad-luck people, especially the kind who talk about it."
 There seems to be an injustice in this, and there doubtless is. At the same time this politician was a judge of men, or he would not have been a successful politi- clan. Most persons who have achieved success are obliged to lis- ten to bad-Iuck stories, despite their efforts to avoid them. The main reason the modern merchant or manager protects himself with a guard of doorkeepers and ante rooms is to escape callers who want to take up his time by mar ratives of their misfortunes.
 Every large center of popula- tion has it's army of bad-luck suf- ferers, and among them are men of education, men who are almost, but not quite, strong enough to reach success. Their point of view is out of compass, their bear ings are wrong; their attitude is that some one who has succeeded must make amends for their owu shortcomings. These unfortun. ates are probably the most hope less persons in the world-hope~ less not so much in their own ideas as in the possibilities of their reformation. When man places his own inadequacy on ill luck he is not worth anything to anybody--not even to himself.
 Luck is the tide, nothing more. The strong man rows with it If it makes toward his port. He rows against it if it flows the other way. Fair or foul, flood or ebb, he rows. And the world has very lit tie time to waste on the man who complains that the tide did not turn at every bend to suit his course.
