So much has been written
about the president use of the
expression "big stick that the
connection in which he used it
is interesting. ITO boast is bad,
and causelessly to insult anoth-
or. worse, yet worse than all is
to be guilty of boasting, even
without insult, and when called
to the proof to be unable to make
such boasting good. There is a
homely old adage which runs:
"Speak softly and carry a big
stick; you will go far"

They disliked each other extremely,

in mangling Reno's copy beyond all

How Eggs Are HatcheO In Cn1na.
A curious method of Matching eggs
has been adopted in China. The eggs
are placed in tiers in a large basket
twice the size of an ordinary barrel,
which is thickly lined with hay and
carefully closed from the air by a tight
fitting cover of twisted straw. In three
days time the eggs are taken out and
replaced in a different order, those at
the surface being put in the lower tier.
This is repeated every third day for a
fortnight. when the eggs are removed
from the basket and placed on q shelf
In another room, being carefully COW
cred with bran. In a day or two the
chickens chip the shells and make their
appearance in the world. The success
of this method Is attributed to the fact
that the animal heat of the egg, being
retained by the basket. which il form
ed OF material not conducting caloric,
is SUFFICIENT to support animal life and
develop 1t.

RETURN or THE
BANDA ROSA

the efforts of leader whose position
at the head of the band directors of
the world is acknowledged everywhere
today, and of band composed of men
each of whom is an artist in his par
ticular line.
While this may be. said of every
member of the band, it is particularly
true of number, among whom may
be numbered Signor v. FaneIli, the
harpist. His solos are exquisite gems
of music, and he uses the pedals with
the utmost discretion, giving to- his
numbers poetic grace and beauty that
is enchanting. The same is true of
the portion allotted to him in the band
scores where the harp is a potent fac
tor in the effects secured.
With such players as these, the best
that money can secure, it is possible
1 to play such selections as the Lucia
Sextet," the angels Serenade," the
Rigoletto QUARTET and the "Trova-
tore duet with an effect as nearly like
| the human voice as is possible. The
different programs will be announced
from day to day, SO that persons desir-
| ing to hear certain numbers will be
! privileged to do so.
! A request night will also doubtless
be arranged, and those who are espe-
cially DESTROYS of hearing any certain
composition, are requested to drop a
line to the Auditorium management,
where the request will be placed in the
hands of Sorrentino and, if possible,
all such numbers will be gathered into
one program. =
Prices for this engagement have been
placed so low that all will have an OPP
portunity to hear the great band and
enjoy one of it's inimitable concerts.
| Tickets are on sale at the office OF the
Metropolitan, Music company.
