The Silent Ruhinstein.

In biography of Sir Herbert Oakley
is told an anecdote showing Rubinstein' 5
Discrimination TO talk. The incident hap
pened in the smoking room OF a Glasgow
hotel in 1877, when the great pianist was
making Scottish tour. After waiting
yainly for an hour for the great man to
direct the conversation, Rnbinstein' 5
companion asked
DO you like Wagner"
He is not g0ot," responded the pianist
sqccinctly.
Abashed, the other waited another half
hour before daring TO break the silence.
How about BeerhoYen!'
He is goot!"
Nearly an hour dragged along after
this yenturesome inquiry, and then the
Scotciman, in desperation, said:
Il must be going to bed now.'

New Sounding Annaratns

y leadless sounding apparatus has
been invented ny Norwegian engineer
named Bergran. The underlying prin-
ciple is one of acoustics, involving tIe
propagation of a sound wave from the
vessel 10 the bottom of tile sea aud bock
and the measurement of the time re-
quired for this. The progress is really
the measurement Of the time between the
making of the sound and the recent of
the echo sent back from the oceans floor.
Both the sending Of the sound and the
registering of the receipt are done by
electrical apparatus.

A NEW POET.

J..
Friends, beware.
Stop babbling! lark, sound is I'm the air
Above the pretty songs Of schools
tNOt of music made, but rules,
Above the panic rush for gold
And emptiness manifold,
And selling Of the soul for phantom fame
And reek Of praises where there should b;
blame;
over the dust and muck,
The buzz and roar of wheels,
Another music steals
4 right true note Is struck.
Friends beware.
a sound of singing in the air!
The love song of a man who loves his fellow
men:
Mother-love and country love, ard the love
Of sea and fen:
Lovely thoughts and mighty thoughts and
thoughts that linger long;
There has come 10 the old world singing
the thrill Of brave new song.
III
But listani-a master voice!
A voice Of the true oybringers,
Now will ye heed and rejoice
Or pass OH the other side,
Aud wait til the singer hath died.
Then weep DER his yoiceless clayf
Friends, beware.
A keen, new sound is IN the air.
And know . new poets coming is the old
worlds judgment day.

Couldn't Find It.

The neighbors having dropped in in

evening, Mrs. Suthron suggests that IL
her husband will gather some mint from
the mint bed in the garden, she will mix
for them genuine Kentucky julep. Mr..

of seven or eight genuine Kentucky
iuleps prior to the arrival OF the guests,
goes willingly In search of the desired
garnishment for the drink. He re.
mains in the garden quite awhile, and
finally the others go out to ascertain
what causes the delay.
why don't you bring the mint in,
dear?" his wife calls

IN THE LEAVES OF PLANTS
Beauty and Fragrance of Infinite Va
riety in the Myriad
Forms.

The wonderful variety in the shape
Of leaves IL among the chief sources
of beauty in the world of plants, says
the London Spectator They vary
from the simple" esg-shaped leaf of
the laurel or the india rubber plant
to the intricate and exquisite "cut-
ting" seen in those Of the maiden hair
fern. the yellow briar-rose. the acan-
thus, or the fig. The cutting" in the
different species of parsley is among
the most elaborate of all: but IL would
he difficult indeed to attempt TO say
which Is the most beautiful in form
The wild geraniums are as elaborated
as the parsleys. In some foreign
plants the leaf has the brilliant hue
commonly enjoyed only by flowers. the
poinsettias showing this in perfection
with their pure yermilion leaves at the
top of the stem. In what are known
TO gardeners as foliage plants" main
ly from the tropical and subtropical
regions. scheme of color is given as a
rule. by the contrast in tint of the
ribs and veins of the leaves with the
tissues filling in the network so formed.
Milky white, bright yellow crimson
or red usually marks the framework Of
the leaf. while the "flling" is dark
green In other plants this scheme Of
ornament is reversed.
Scents and perfumes, not less deli
cious than those distilled from flow
ers and blossoms. are often given out
by leaves. There are those who pro-
fess TO detect a purer and more deli
cate odor In these leaf-scents than in
the perfume of flowers; and though
this is a matter Of personal taste and
sensation, there is some reason to
agree with this refinement OF the
sense of smell. The odor OF the lemon
plant. or Of the leaves of musk. and,
above all, the perfume Of the sweet
briar leaves, are among the most
clean" and refreshing in all the cate
CORY of sweet scents.

CITY HAS NET FOR FISHES
Supplies Food for Zoo Birds and
Specimens for the Public
Aquarium.

Visitors to Bronx park walking
along the east side OF the Bronx river
not far from the subway entrance have
been interested in a circular net that
was placed in the stream a few days
ago. II was put there, reports the
New York Sun. for the double pur-
pose Of supplying fish dinners to the
birds of he 700 and specimens for
the aquarium at the Battery.
A row of stakes near the bank leads
with the large end inshore. The fish
coming to the bank to feed enter the
mouth and naturally swim back into
deep water, but they find the net mar
rowing, and when they slide through
the small hole in the end OF the fun
mel they are trapped within a larger
net of the same style. The net is
about Is feet long and four feet wide
at the mouth,
Carp and suckers weighing from a
quarter OF pound to three pounds
have been taken in this way for the
benefit of the 700 eagles, cranes and
vultures. The keepers say that the
