contralto's MusIeal Efforts Accom-
 panied by the Living Article.

Alice Sovereign had trying expert. ence recently in Pittsburg, her recital ending with little tragedy. the dra. matis personae of which were the con. tralto and bluebottle fly. The re- frain of Nevin's "Yearning" had just been reached and Miss Sovereign in her most appealing tones was entreat- ing, "Oh, fly with mel" when the blue bottle, accepting the invitation. ap. peared. Refusing to be brushed aside. it buzzed blithely about the singers pretty face and with commendable taste remained in the vicinity of her lips. "Oh, fly! oh, fiy!" continued Miss Sovereign, a bit tremulously. "Buzz!" was the noncommittal answer. "Oh, fly!" confined the contralto, on low c that gave very little hint of her trepidation. And then tho worst hap pened. Without pausing to reflect, the fly impulsively rushed into the breach and disappeared It was critical moment for both. but Miss Sovereign proved equal to the emergency. With out wincing. and with excellent breath control. she aided the intruder in it's downward journey, and con cluded the song with clear, mellow, and truthful, "Oh, fly with mel" The incident was unnoticed by the audi ence, but Miss Sovereign still has the hy-ln memory, at least

Harry Wheeler. who boards with the smith family, on Main street, has received threatening letters. from parties said to be members of the Black Hand society. The letters state that if MT Wheeler does not discon- tinue writing the Oakyille news for q certain paper that he will he annihilated. As there is no such so- ciety known in Oakville, the letters are probably the work of some jok- CTS. Mir Wheeler denies that he has written any Oakville, news for any paper.
 The latest victim of the lunatic who makes practice of holding up different persons about the village af- ter dark is Mrs Hickox, of the glen, who was thoroughly frightened by the fellow on Tuesday night.

Wedding Check Went to Pay Debts.
 Persons who have been at loss to select presents for marrying friends often have fallen back upon the ~sen- sible" practice of sending check. Tt saves the bride the bother of ex- changing presents" has been the ex- cuse. But the scheme has drawbacks. as in the case of young man of social standing but slender means who re- gently married girl whose father is one of our city millionaires. The we'd ding took place in Paris and several New York friends of the bridegroom "chipped in" for the sending of large figured draft They expected he would buy an automobile or some other real ly necessary article. Great was their annoyance when they learned the young man had used the checks pro- ceeds to settling debts. He had gone to the extreme of meanness. in their eyes, and they will think twice before they make that form of gift again. N. Y. Press.

MEN OF MANY LANGUAGES.
Cardinal MexzofantI Probably the Greatest Lingulst of them All.

Fifty-eight languages at the end oi ones tongue! Yet this was the num- Der of tongues of which the Cardinal Mezzofanti was master. and the most wonderful thing about 1t was that nearly all of these different languages had several separate dialects. Mezzo- fanti was probably the greatest lin. guist the world has ever known. To hear a language was with him to speak it. He was a man with three score words for every idea, and he laid his great attainments to his excel. lent memory and to the fact that once hearing a word he never forgot it.
 Jeremiah Curtin, the translator of Quo Vadis,' is credited with speak ing 60 languages and dialects.
 There are few men nowadays who pass the mark of a speaking knowl- edge of ten languages. Six or eight seem to be the limit. even with men of great learning. Mithridates. Pico and Sir William Jones were said to be masters of over 20 tongues, and Sir John Bowring, Muller and Fres- nel are said to have spoken in 20.- The Sunday Magazine.
