Crafty Master Fox.

A fox was one day seen coming out
Of pile Of stones near the water
side. He hid in the heather for
awhile and then pushed out some
thing on the water, which proved to
be bunch Of moss. The wind took
1t into the middle Of the lake and
blew it past some ducks sitting on the
surface. Having watched his venture
for perhaps ten minutes with appar-
ent satisfaction and observed that 1t
neared the ducks without arousing
their suspicious, our friend began to
collect another and larger bunch of
moss, which he allowed to float IN the
same direction, but this time he swan
behind 1t, taking care to show only his
eyes and nose above water. Just as
It was passing the group of ducks he
made sudden dive, pulled down a
bird and swan back to shore under
water. Arrived there, he carried the
duck to the pile of heather, where his
wife and daughter were no doubt
waiting to enjoy the fruits of his la

Some Troubles Of a pian;.t.

Harold Bauer, the pianist, has had
some curious experiences during his
travels.
While playing in Barcelona he was
challenged to fight q duel by an ex-
cited member Of the audience whom
he had reproved for disturbing the re-
cital by his noisy conduct. On another
occasion, In Italy, he had to be car
ried through an underground tunnel
to escape the attentions of frantic adj
mirers.
One Of his most extraordinary expe-
ricnces was in Russia. It was In a
little town near Moscow, and In the
middle Of his performance the pianist
was arrested by the police on the
grounds that he was obtaining money
under false pretenses. The police ac-
ton was based on the grounds that a
Hungarian dance appeared on the pro-
gram and that there were no dancers.
They overlooked the terrible fact that
Mr.. Bauer had played two marches

Tho Rust Of Custom.

The bitterness toward innovation Is
Just the same in an army as out of 1t,
but perhaps with more reason. A new
thing cannot possibly be accepted un-
til 1t has proved itself better than that
which 1t displaces. The first cannons
were possibly rejected, and the Chris
tian inventor took them to the Turk,
who used them at the siege Of Con-
stantinople The first firearms were
bitterly opposed because they destroy
ed the soldierly bearing of the troops.
The British navy strenuously objected
to the first large guns because one
charge would cost as much as one Of
Nelson's broadsides. Ericsson's Mon
ltor met with more opposition in
Washington than 1t did in Hampton
Roads. At the outbreak Of the civil
war 1t Is said that congress ordered
the adoption Of the new weapon, over
the objection Of the chief of ordnance,
who kept specimen of the old ono in
his Office to show visitors how good 1t
