OLE BULL. THE WIZARD.
He Knew His Public, and Played What
They Wanted.


The truth is that Ole Bull was not a
classical player; as I remember him,
he could not play in strict tempo; like
Chopin, he INDUCED in the rubato and
abused the portamento. But he knew
his public. America a half century ago,
particularly in the regions he visited,
was not in the mood for sonatas or con-
certs. "0ld DAN Tucker and the "Ar-
kansaw Traveller" were the mode. Bull
played them both, played iigs and old
tunes, reused the echoes with the "Star
SpangIed Banner" and Irish melodies.
He played such things beautifully, and
it would have been musical snobbery to
say that you didn't like them. You
couldn't help yourself The grand old
fellow bewitohed you. He was hand

willowy figure, small waist, and heavy

face like one OF his native Norwegian
cataracts. He was the most pictures

 The place where father went for his load was deserted by the ice-haryest- CTS. The river here stretched away for a mile or two to the northwest, and down this stretch the wind, un. hindered. seemed almost to double its speed and keenness.
 The bank sloped gently down to the edge of the water. Here father backed up his dray to within a few feet of the ice, and left his horse standing. while he prepared to cut and load the ice. It was but a few inches thick where he began splitting off cakes of it with his ax.
 He was making rapid lGadway with his work and had secured and loaded nearly as much as he wanted. when a considerably larger piece split on than he had anticipated. including the portion on which he stood. Taken by surprise. he was precipitated into the water. which at this point was ten feet or more in depth, with a strong current.

THE GOVERNOR
 FINDS HIMSELF
By Stuart B. stono

His excellency the governor was ili fretful mood. While matters of sfata overwhelmed him, his secretary had determined on vacation. The occa- sion was the Locke-Snyder wedding. at which the secretary would shine as one of the six bridesmaids. There were silks and slippers to purchase. and the time was short
 All this had been explained to the governor. but he failed to see. tie knew only that the capitol investisa- ton was on and the appointment of a set of officials for Bell county to be made The turnpike problem was q bad one. and felons were clamorlns for parGon and party leaders begging for pie.
 Consider the poor convicts." he stormed.
 Consider the six bridesmaids" re- 5utted the sienographer. Here are four men" he said. "ob- j-cting to be hanged.
 Pardon them" she suggested.
 No; I'll hang 'em." Whereat the stenographer knew the executive was wroth and held her peace.
 The man looked into the sparkling brown eyes and for the first time In the two years they had labored to- sether really saw the girl. He was an absent-mindcd slave. serving his little state in the best manner the party bosses would allow. always immersed in his work Now for a moment he for. got his governorship. and red tape. and
 policy, and saw only the maid before him.
 "A month is long time" said. "Cut it short. if you can" And as an after thought: And don't be foolish
 and form any sentimental attachment yourself
 The girl suppressed a smile as she slid out the door. The governor tapped with pencil on his desk in deepest reverie.
 Then his councillors poured in upon him Good mornin'. guv'nor," the auditor saluted breezily. What about the turnpikes?" "Win the Bell county commissions

"I'l send you Perkins" Keep the biockhead I've got tc think out things by myself" The governor sat down and gazed thoughtfully into the fire for many minutes after his august advisors hac deserted him. And thus he sat wher the door opened gently and some ont entered. The governor raised his eyes

 Although he was in plain sight of the Touring mills on each side of the river. and within possible hailing distance Of the bridge which spanned the river below the dam, and in sight of perhaps a dozen houses. no person was visible The small chance of any one appearing on this bitterly cold day was even smaller at this particular time. as people generally were at their midday meal
 self up on the ice to which he was ciinging. But at once 1t broke, and he was again submerged.
 Several times, however, in the next few desperate moments did the splin- tering ice break his hold, and each time he was fortunate enough to get a new hold before being drawn under. While working thus he drew nearer. partly by design. to the river bank. where the faithful old dray-horse was standing
 At last an inspiration seized him, and knowing how well the horse obeyed his least word. he ca..ed to Old Frank to back up, The horse backed few steps in a slow and de liberate manner. Father watched with keen anxiety. lest he back too far. and dray. horse and all be pre-, cipitated into the icy stream. But his fears were groundless. for when the drsy was as near the edge of the ice as father dared risk having it come, the horse stopped at a word of com mard
 For the now thoroughly chilled man to make a few desperate lunges to- ward the shore and the wheel of the dray did not require long. By great good fortune he succeeded in reach. ing the thicker ice near the shore without being wholly cast adrif, from the thinner ice in his progress shore ward Then by one last supreme ef- fort he lunged far enough forward to grasp the dray-wheel with one hand. With that leverage he drew himself enough farther to get hold with the other hand also. Taking as firm . grasp of the wheel as possible, he chirruped fer the horse to go ahead. and again the animal responded, and father was dragged from his icy bath, Summoning all his strength and wili-power, he succeeded in gaining his feet. Knowing that he must get home at once. and that if possible he must walk rather than ride. in order to avoid being utterly chilled and seri. ously frozen. he started the horse homeward and staggered along as best he could. l was at home. and hap pened to be snxiously peering out of the window in the hope of seeing ia ther. whom we had been expecting Finally my eyes beheld a sight which I shall never forget
 Up the street a block or two was Old Frank, coming home with the dray, and on the sidewalk came a man whom. in spite of his condition, recognized as father. His clothing was frozen stiff. while from all oyer hili hung icicles. literally by the hun. dred He reached the house. and soon made change of apparel Remark able as it may seem. he was not aeri- ously frozen anywhere, nor did he suf- fer any particular inconvenience after ward as result of his involuntary and somewhat prolonged plunge baln

in Nov. 1908. =
Whereas many i'll advised GRIMM
al prosecutions are begun each year
before Justices of the Peace in this
