of the Countess's name she belonged to q real
arstocracy, centuries old, which rpened on the
shores of the Adriatic and the newly richer would
have given her tiara to be one of the favored few
who attended her really musical musicales.
Her tone toward Zabritski softened, and she told
him that he could come in and sit down behind the
grand piano If he found it too cold in the ante
room. Zabriaski had never sat behind grand piano
in his life and as he is fond of new sensations he
accepted her invitation and hid himself from tho

The rich lard lady had number of singers who
waited in the anteroom but her piece dc resistance
was no less lion than that great Hungarian pianist
(born in Irving place., lgnace Zabritski. She had
engaged him through Herr Wolfram Waldvogel, and
| happen to know that he was to receive five hun.
dred dollars for playing once.
Now if she had had a memory for faces she
would have recognized him rs soon as he came in

But the thing that settled it was when the
Countess Sagoni went up to Zabritski, whom she
knew very well, and chatted most bohemianly with
him in very choice Italian. After that every one in
the room was hauled up and presented to him, and
then he sat down and played q pathetic thing by
Tschaikowsky, and many people who knew il was
pathetic were moved to tearsright in the midst Of
their conversation-and after it was all over the
lard lady shook hands with Zabrtski most efusively
and asked him If he knew any other artists of "dear
old Hungary who could do a turn. She also said sne
adored "talent" And Zabritsk remembered his sense
of humor just in time, and told her he had COM
patriot named Braunski, who mad q glorious bass

two hundred dollars as great favor, although he
was simply visiting this country and was doing
nothing Of professional kind
OF course you know that when the little basso
came to the house he had his label on 1.-THE wrong
label, naturally, Brown, or Braunski, the basso
born near Gowanus Canal, over in Brooklyn.)
But the lard lady made much OF him, you can
bet your sesterces, and the Countess Sagoni, who
knew good voice when she heard IL, no matter
where man had happened to be born, had him sing
at one of her Sundays, and that was the beginning

When mans label is on he has no idea what
people really think of him. know of a pianist in
New York who has a label that's worth good
deal to him. Why, with his label on he can make
at least twenty-five thousand dollars a year. and
socially he is lion-with his lebel on, mind you.

women weep-when they know who he is-and
Paderewski himself is said to have said that there
is no one he would rather hear play than this same
bald head-for he happens to be that rara avis
bald-headed pianist.
Zabrtski, who was born within stones throw
OF the New York Academy of Music, of New Eng
land parents, is the soul of goodnatu and except
when he is on concert tour he hasn't particle
of big head He once told me that when he is on a
concert tour he finds that certain amount of big
headedness is expected of him by his audiences in
order to convince them that he is the real goods
and so sometimes he refuses to play on a piano
after ne has sat down to it and makes the audience
wait until better one is brought up from the
local WarerOoms.
Of course the papers next day call him a crank,
but they admit that he is man of tenacity of pur-
pose, and that is q beloved American trait, so he
scores a hit whenever ne is cranky that way. But
the crankiness is all assumed and he often laughs
about it among his friends and says for the matter
of that, one piano is bad as another when one is
playing off the main line
All this is when he has his label on. Now I'll
tell you something that happened when his label
was off and he was just an ordinary person.

Brown, who DESTROYS of effecting an entrance
into society to the extent of being engaged to sing
at swagger and noisy receptions of the elte-the
kind who pronounce it "eght"-and one day he
came to Zabritski, whom he had known for years,
with wofu tale about his fear of losing an engage
ment to sing at the house of rich lard lady on ac-
count of his accompanist having sprained his wrist,
and would Zabrtski go incog and play for him?
And of course Zabritski would, just as willingly
as he would have done it when he had some hair
and was struggling himself, and so little basos
Brown departed in fine spirits.
Now it happened that the great Zabritski arrived
first at the home of the rich lard lady-who was a
newly richer, by the way-and he gave her to under
stand that he was only poor worm of an accom-
panist and at that her manner, which had been non
committal, changed to frigidty and she sent him
haughtily into ante-room off the main hall to
await the arrival of Brown Zabrtski's sense of
humor is often his salvation and he who is used to
being 1t in the center of drawing-room with ladies
falling all another in their efforts to shake
the hand that taught by List, went meekly
into the ante-room and shivered in draft while he
waited.
After time the newly rich lard lady left her
chattering guests and in and spoke to him; in
fact she scoded him rather hard because the basso
was late, and Zabitski, with beautiful assumption
OF servility, said "Im very sorry, madam but this

by President Paul O. Stensland of the
wrecked Milwaukee Avenue State

record of $191 900 of savings bank de-
posits another sensational book came
to light during the examination of
Cashier Henry w. Herring by Assistant

This book showed Stensland In a new

pn the races. II contained memoranda
OF the campaigns on the turf. One
day Stensland and his companions

called General Bragg. The animal
won. There were lots of losings, how
ever. to offset this big winning.
This shows" said Herring, as he
brought the book from its hiding place,

here who followed the ponies.'"
Question Hering's Statement.
The authorities are chary Of repos-
ing implicit confidence in Herings
statement that he did not forge the
names on certain notes and by impli-
cation insinuating that Stensland did.
The actual securing of money on
bad paper always was put through at
noon, when the paying teller was out
at lunch. Then Herring would enter
his cage, take the money and leave
debit slip on the hook
This Is what happened on July 2S.
Herring admits that he took $1,000
from the paying tellers drawer, put
the money in his pocket and put on
the spindle slip charging the sum to
q mythical "Umbach." No such per-
son exists so far as Is known and the
transaction was O plain case of en-
bezzlement.
In the case of the money borrowed
by SteEsland from the bank Herring
said that Stensland had instructed
him to make between 100000 and
5000, 900 In forged notes, signed chiefly
with the names of prominent patrons
OF the bank. This, he said, he did
under Stensland's specific dictation.
Also. at Stensland's dictation, he cared
for these notes and credited interest
on them from time to time.
