Austrian Composers Scheme to Stop
Girls Singing Is Her Making.

Vienna.-Herr Ziehrer, the we'll
known Austrian composer, relates in
the Tagblatt how he was the invol-
untary means Of raising a servant girl
to fame and fortune.
A few years ago Herr Ziehrer re-
tired to quiet village in Salzburg for
the summer to work on an operetta,
but was annoyed by a servant girl
next door necessarily singing a popu-
liar ditty. To stop the nuisance he be.
thctght himself of stratagem. He
gravely complimented the girl on her
fine voice, but advised her not to sing
ia note until the winter, when he
would give her an Introduction to
famous professor.
Herr Ziehrer, of course, meant to
do nothing of the sort, but his plan
succeeded, and he was able to finish
his work in peace, never giving the
matter another thought. A year or so
passed. One day the composer re-
ceived letter from the music teach
er, saying that the girl he had recon-
menfed had turned out first class
artistic. She is now one of the most
popular artists on the Vienna operate
stage, but Herr Ziehrer is discreet
enough not to reveal her name.

MAKING OF LAThEs GROWS.
Manufacture of MetaI-Workng Ma.
chinery Shows Big Increase.

Washington.-The census bureau
has issued a bulletin relative to the
manufacture of Woodworking ma
chinery in the United States in 1905,
the total value of which was $32, 40S,-
766, which is an increase of $7,67O,S62,
or 81 per cent, in the value of this
class Of machinery over 1900.
The term Woodworking machin-
cry is defined as relating only to
power-operated machinery for work
ing metals, including also the parts
and small tools necessary for the
operation of the same, but does not
embrace machines or tools for use in
the hand trades.
Lathes were the principal class of
Woodworking machines manufac-
tured in both 1900 and 1905, their
value forming 1873 per cent. of the
total at the later census.
The bulletin says American manu-
facturers have been progressive in
changing and adapting their machin-
cry to meet European shop methods,
with the result that American made

"'Tis just said Darrell. "But tell me,
I how came he to know his father was a
theft"
"That am thinking of, and before
answer, is there more you can tell me
of him or his people?"
Darrell rose and, lighting a torch Of
pine, stuck it in the ground; then he
| opened his leathern pocketbook and
took out number Of cuttings, much
worn and apparently from old news
/ papers. He put on his glasses and be-
gan to examine the cuttings.
"The other day" said he, II found an
account of his mothers death. 1 had
forgotten, but her death was an odd
! tragedy"
1 And the tinker began reading slowly
as follows:
"She an her mother, lady deaf an
feeble, We're alone saving the servants
In a remote corner O. the house. A
sound woke her in the still night. She
lay awhile, listening. Was it her hus-
band returning without his key? She
rose, feeling her way in the dark an
trembling with the fear of nervous
woman. Descending stairs, she came
into room o. many windows. The
shades were up, an there was dim
moonlight In the room. A door with
panels O. thick glass led to the garden
walk. Beyond it were the dark forms
of men. One was peering in, his face
at panel, another kneeling at the
lock. Suddenly the door opened. The
lady fell fainting, with loud cry.
Next day the kidnapped boy was born"
Darrell stopped reading, put the clip
ping into his pocketbook and smoth-
cred the torch.
ut seems the woman died the same
day." said he.
"And was my mother" The words
came in broken voice.
Half moment of silence followed
them; then Darrell rose slowly, and a
tremulous, deep sigh came from the
lips of Trove.
"Thy mother, boy!" Darrell whispered.
| The fire had burned low, and the
great shadow of the night lay dark up
on them. Trove got to his feet and
came to the side of Darrell.
TELL me, for Gods sake, man, tell
me where is my father!" said he.
"Hush, boy! Listen. Hear the wind
in the trees,' said Darrell.
There was breath of silence, broken
by the boot of an owl and the stir of
| high branches. "Yc might as we'll ask
O. the wind or the wild OWL" Darrell
said. Il cannot tell thee. Be calm,
! boy, and say how thou hast come to
know"
Again they sat down together, and
presently Trove told him of those silent
men who had ever haunted the dark
and ghostly house of his inheritance.
"'Tis thy mothers terror-an' thy
fathers house, make no doubt" said
Darrell presently in deep voice. But,
boy, l cannot tell any man where is
thy father, not even thee, nor his name
or the least thing tending to point him
out until-until l am released O. me
VOW. Be content. If l can find the
man ere long thou shalt have word O.
him.
Trove leaned against the breast Of
Darrell, shaking with emotion. His tale
| had come to an odd and fateful eli
max.

Many thrilling scene has held the
stage-the spent deer swimming for

"'Tis cruel part" said Trove. "He

understand why there are so many
villains in its cast Both the cat and
the serpent battle me-"
'Marry, boy, the world is great

Increase their peril. Now, eight miles
from their cave was the cabin of
settler. They passed within mile of
1t on their way out and in. They had
often met the dog of the settler rowing
after small game-a shepherd, trustful,
affectlonate and ever ready to make
friends. One day they captured the
i dog and took him to their cave. They
could not safely be seen with the boy,
so they planned to let the dog go home
with him in little red sleigh. Now,
the settlers cabin was, like that of my
father, on the shore Of pond. 1t was
round, as a cups rim, and mile or
so in diameter Opposite the cabin
trail came to the waters edge, skirting
the pond, save in cold weather, when
it crossed the ice. They waited for
night when their tracks would soon
disappear. Then, having made cover
of the sailcloth sack in which they had
brought the boy and stretched it on
withes and made it fast to the sleigh
box, they put the sleeping boy in the
sleigh, with hot stones wrapped in pa
per and robe of fur to keep him
warm, hitched the dog to it and came
over hill and trail to the little pond
awhile after midnight. Here they buc-
kled ring of bells on the dogs neck
and released him. He made for his
home on the clear ice, the bells and his
bark sounding as he ran. They at the
cabin heard him coming and opened
their door to dog and traveller. So came
my hero in little red sleigh and was
adopted by the settler and his wife and
reared by them with generous affec-
ton. Well, he goes to school and learns
rapidly and comes to manhood. It's a
pretty story-that of his life in the big
woods. But now for the love tale.
He meets young lady-sweet, tender,
graceful, charming"
"a moment" said Darrell, raising his
hand. "Prithee, boy, ring down the
curtain for brief parley. Thou say'st
they We're Syrians-they that stole the
lad. Now, tell me, hast thou reason
for that?

words he spoke were 'Anah jouhan.'
He used them many times, and while
he forgot they remembered them.
Now, 'Anah jouhan' is phrase Of the
Syrian tongue meaning, I am hun

emphasis, land sailors. That is just
inference. 1t was a big port, and far
people came on the four winds. Very

"She is from life-a simple hearted
girl, frank and beautiful and''- Trove
hesitated, looking into the dying fire.

loves her. She is in every thought and
purpose. She has become as the rock
on which his hope is founded. Now
he loves honor, too and all things of
good report. He has been reared a
Puritan. By chance, one day, it comes
to him that his father was thief"
The boy paused. For moment they
heard only the voices of the night.
"He dreaded to tell her." Trove con-
tinued, "yet he could not ask her to be
his wife without telling. Then the
question, Had he a right to tell? For
