JUST WHAT he WANTED.
Surely Here Were Musical Tastes
Enough to Suit Anybody.

A gentleman Of the most cultivated
musical tastes, wishing to change his
residence, advertised for rooms in a
private family "fond Of music" The
next mail brought him the follow
ing reply:
Dear Sir: ! think we could accom-
modate you with rooms, and as for
music one Of my daughters plays the
parlor organ and gittar; another one
plays the ACCORDION and banjo; ! play
the cornet and fiddle; by wife plays
the harmonica and my son the flute.
We all sing and if you are good at
tenner singing you would fit right in
when we get to singing gospel hims
evenings, for none Of us sings tenner.
Or if you plays the base vial we have
one right here in the house. If you
want music as well as rooms and
board we could accommodate you and
there would be no extra charge for it.

II HE Passing Of the Fifth Avenue ho-
4 tel win mark the disappearance of
the last of the citys hotels possessing
a distinctively political atmosphere.
The Fifth Avenue hotel has been the
center of Republican activity in New
York almost ever since the party
came into existence
Until the last campaign the party
headquarters for the state was in the
hotel, and during the years when
Thomas C. Platt was the boss he re-
sided there Now Platt. boss no long
.er. has moved to an obscure side
street, and only a few old-time politi-
clans are to be met wandering
through the corridors of the famous
building on Madison square.

MansfIeId,s Rebuke.

A group of theatrical men were talk
ing in New York about the late Rich
ard Mansfield
"Mr. Mansfield" said one, was de-
lightful humoroist, splendid racon-
teur in society, but at the same time
he had a certain proper and becoming
sense of his own dignity, and it never
paid to be unduly familiar with him.
He was, as we all know, rather
bald. He resented, from BARRIERS, or
friends, any allusion to his badness.
We'll, one night at a party, man
came up behind this great artist, stag
gered him with a violent slap on the
back, and exclaimed in loud, jovial,
familiar voice:
"'Hello, Dick How are you? Every
time 1 see you, you get balder and
balder.'
Mansfield drew himself up. He
sneered at the other.
"'Hello,' he said. i don't know who
you are, but every time see you you
get ruder and ruder."
