We haven't vast admiration for Gov.

that, "until children living away from

Row It Brought About HE Hasty
Departure From Vienna,
When Wagner was at the height d
his popularity he visited Vienna.
Count Won Beust, then chancellor Of
the empire, was informed that the
Prussian party intended to give him
an immense serenade-a serenade
which would have the air of German
protest against the tendency of the
ministry to make the union OF Hun
gary and Austria more intimate. The
demonstration promised to arouse
strong feeling. "Your e1cellency is
warned" said the chancellor's ad-
visers. at is impossible to stop this
manifestation unless Wagner goes
away, and he loves ovations too we'll.
Nothing will induce him to depart" !"
''You think SC? said Beust with a
smile.
An hour later Wagner was invited
to dine with the chancellor. He was
fattered by the invitation and ac-
cepted it. After dinner, at which
Beust was delightfully."- affable and en-.
tertaininR, the chancellor remarked:
''Herr Wagner, are you interested
in autographs? have some very
curious ones to show you, and he
opened a portfolio where were letters
of Palmerston, Bismarck, Napoleon
I'LL, Heine and others. Suddenly
turning to a paper, dated 1S48, he
said: "Ah, look at this; it is very Curl
Gus. What would your friend, his
hiehness the king of Bavaria, say il
this paper, which would be significant
in connection with the political sere.
made which the Germans are going to
give you, should be published to-mor-
row in the Vienna papers?"
The composer examined the paper
and recognized, with surprise, an old
proclamation OF one Richard Wagner,
who, an ardent revolutionist in 1848,
had proposed to the youth of that
time to set fire to the palace of the
king of Saxony. He saw his auto
graph, and that it might be the
means OF getting him into serious
trouble. "Very curious, is it not,
Herr Wagner" said tho minister.
"Very curious, your excellency," re-
piled his guest. The next morning
Richard Wagner left Vienna. recalled
to Bayreuth by urgent business.

an interesting and classic form of
speech. We 60 all the way back, in
fact, to the time of the ancient Ro-
mans.
"The Roman workers in the salt
mines we're paid in salt. The salt that
they got In return for their labor was
called their sal arium (sal-salt) or
salt allowance.
"The word salarium, meaning salt
money, or allowance for salt, later on
was applied to the fees, or tips, men
got for odd jobs. For patching my
toga,' the noble said. I will give that
fellow a slight salarium-a bit of
money to buy salt with
FINALLY, 'salarium' came to mean
wages, salary, what 1t does to-day. A
salary Is essentially salt money, and

salt we mean he is not worth paying

One OF the senators from New Jersey
is John.F. Dryden, president of the Pru.
dental Life Insurance company. He
has recently testified that as president
of the life insurance company he re-
ceives salary of $65,OOO year. As
United States senator his salary is
$1,000 year and bis present term ex-
tends till March 4. 1907.
Now which interest would prove tie
stronger in the event of confiict--that
which pays him 5000 or the one which
pays him thirteen times az much? Sim
lary the vene, able Tom Platt draws
many times his senatorial salary as
president of the United States Express
company, and once genial Chauncey NJ.
