A MOST VALUABLE STAMP.
$4,000 Will Not Buy One Of the Rarest
Specimens Extant

A broadway, N. Y, stamp collector.
who has clients all over the world,
showed to a reporter for the Sunday
Press trade circular from London
telling about recently discovered
stamp for which offers of 81 900 have
been refused. An American collector
living in England is said to have Of
Tered more than that sum for 1t as a
matter of speculation. But the firm
that owns the stamp keeps it locked
IN Its safe. Only limited number Of
persons are permitted to see it.
The coveted stamp is what is called
tuppeny Mauritius" and is one of
the rarest in the world. Its value is
due to an engraver's blunder. His
wits went wool gathering while he
was at work. and the stamp was i'm
printed with the words ''postoffi ce" in
stead of postpaid" When the blum
der was discovered the entire issue was
hastily withdrawn, and all sold that
could be recovered were destroyed
The recent discovery was found in the
collection of Glasgow man who died
about two years ago and whose heirs
were disposed to treat his postage
stamp hobby with contempt
Il have seen these stamps in mu
seums,' said the Broadway collector
but l never before heard of one in a
private collection. This one may come
to America if anybody chooses to pay
enough for it."

CALLED BEFORE THE FEAST.
City pereIiet Disappointed In His Las

city DereIlct Disappointed IN HIS Iast
Hour.
The missionary had finished his
talk to the crowd of derelicts in a
Bowery mission and went around the
room to shake them by the hand.
There was one man sitting on bench
whose face was so utterly loathsome
that the missionary's gorge rose in
his throat, and he was compelled to
pass him by. The mans dulled eye
marked the look of disgust. and in a
tone of mingled detection and resent
ment he cried out:
Say. mister. why don't you shake
hands wild me?"
The young missionary turned, con-
science-stricken, looked into the sin
Scared features and grasped the
mans hand.
Really, brother, you must forgive
me-" he stammered. IL couldn't
help it when l saw your-your face.
But I'll make amends. You must take
dinner with me tomorrow night"
The broken man glanced at his rags
in confusion, blushed like a girl and
gasped:
"Wot? Me take dinner wild you!
Me go to your house! Me?"
Yes. l mean it. I'll come to-mor-
row night, and get you"
True to his word, the missionary
presented himself at the lodging house
the next evening and inquired for the
man. A corpse was lying on the table,
a handkerchief spread over its face
The clerk jerked his thumb in the d.
rection of the body.
That's Wilson," he said. "He had
fixed himself up and was waitin' for
you. Dropped dead half an hour ago."

A National Conclusion.

Recently w. S. Gilbert, the English
librettist, was SO unfortunate as to
lose his umbrella while dining at the
Carlton club in London. In rather
waggish mood the lihrettist caused the
following notice of his loss to be
posted in the cloakroom: The noble
man who took the undersigned's UNI
brella will confer great favor on Mr..
Gilbert by leaving it (the unbrella)
with the clerk CT this club" When a
friend demonstrated with Gilbert, say
ing that he thought it was gratu:tous
airront, and asked why Gilbert should
assume that a nobleman had taken
the umbrella, the witty Gilbert ex-
claimed: "Oh. according to the first
article Of the clubs rules its member
ship is composed Of noblemen and
gentlemen And, since the person who
took my umbrella is certainly not a
gentleman, It follows that he must be
O nobleman."

A MATTER OF GROWTH,
Difference in Culture Of the Old and
New Worlds.

IliSFenSe III SuitUTe OF tne OlQ ana
New Worlds.
If one-tenth as much attention were
devoted to the fools among the middle
and working classes as is devoted to
the fool sons of the rich, we should be
in danger of believing with Carlyle
that the people are mostly fools" 1t
is true that the culture of the sudden
ly rich is cruder and narrower than
the culture Of those who have had
generations of wealth and leisure; but
culture is relative. The culture of the
most cultured classes in the Old World
is the result of large wealth possessed
for generations. Culture is matter
OF growth; but it never grows In pow
erty. The cheapness of the culture of
the very rich il this country. as com
pared with that of the aristocracy of
old countries. is Simply the difference
between youth and age-a difference
Of experience. There is a compara-
tive cheapress in the culture, bearing
and manners of the people of the West
as compared with those of the East
and for the same reason. The aristoc-
racy of the South and of New England
have a refinement quite unlike that of
the newly made rich in New York and
Chicago and the West. They have
been longer in the makiIg.-Gunton'
Magazine.

In certain town, which shall be
nameless, there once lived couple
of young fellows who had gone into
partnership in BARRIERS business, and
in order to pass the time one partic-
ularly dull afternoon Tom proposed to
Dick that they should indulge In a
quiet game of cards.
The quiet game went on hour after
hour, and when the shades of night
had fallen for some time neither of
them noticed that a customer had en-
tered.
He surveyed them in silent con-
tempt for some few minutes.
Sorry If interrupt" he said acidly
at last, but I'm in a hurry. Which
Of you fervid sportsmen is going to

Tom looked over the hand which
had just been dealt him. Then, in a
voice full Of suppressed excitement he
said:
Just one moment. sir. Wait until
