HIS VOICE IS NATURAL

Some people have the idea that the beautiful voice possessed by Richard Jose was cultivated; that the exquis- ite tones and perfect phrasing of this matchless contra-tenor conld not have been attained except by painstaking effort under the guidance of maestro. However, the voice in all it's variant sweetness is natural, gift from the gods.
 "People frequently ask me why l don't go abroad and study '-have my voice cutivated,' Jose is quoted as saying to Ashton Stevens, the Exam. iner's critic. "I'll tell you about that As soon as they were all right at home and 1 could save little on the side, l put by twenty eight hundred dollars and took my voice to the best singing master in London, Shakespeare. l sang simple ballads for him and some hmyns. Then he said he could help me in my breathing and in what he called vocal style but that he couldn' t nor would It alter a single tone. He said-and ' J'Ss to iSpSdb it he said that my voice had been given to me and that he couldn t paint the lily. So, instead of spending the money with him, l took it home to Cornwall, where We patched up the old roof and added comfort here and there. "It's little village on the Cornish coast and everybody knows everybody as well as everybody's grandfather did. My train was late, and as walked the old road, l noticed the iold houses along its side. In window of every one of them burned candle. That was for my homecoming. No reception , by any audience was ever like that to me.
 "Oh, yes, l sang for them. The old church where my father had led the choir was very small--so small that We had to take little family organ out into the imddle of a great open fed, and l sang the hymns had learn ed when l was boy.
 You-here-so far from Cornwall and not knowing it-you will think it incredible-but l was almost a great fellow int hat field. At any rate, that s the way it seemed to me-"

ALDERMAN MILLS EXPLAINS
THE DEPLETED TREASURY.
SAYS THE CITY WAS BUSTED"
WHEN THE PRESENT ADMINS,
TRATION TOOK THE OARS.

Editor Daily News:-In view of re-
marks and the general attitude Of
Of citizens and tax payers Of our city
toward the City Council. as one Of
that body, I feel as though in de,
Tense Of said body, matters as they
are should be placed before the pub
lie in the proper light. At the COM
mencement Of the present term Of
office last February, the incoming
Council faced a depleted treasury and
an Indebtedness nearing $4,000. The
much-abused occupation tax had Just
been defeated, which meant a SER
ious loss to the city. The water,
works were about TO be installed,
which is a great expense to the city
at present as the plant is far from
being self-sustaining, and the install
latiOn of the system has had a great
deal to do with putting the streets
in the condition in which they now
are.
According to the City Charter we
have no means of borrowing money
and if we do our duty by the citizens
we have no right to run the city
in debt without discriminating our
selves, other than if We give per
sonaI notes and receive as a reward
the chagriu Of being called q thief
or a fool. which becomes rather mo
uotouous when you are giving your
time and labor gratis to a very un-
appreciatiye public.
Please De kind enough to iuvesti-
safe before yol judge too har5hly as
ae have 81 body of men, I believe,
HHo are doing all they can for the
a..temclt %. tine city.
Sir. Eusogue.s offer is more than
generous and if our good citizens viii
rally to our support now they viii
do the city am everlasting service.

the other. by their fellow passengers.
lnasmuch as young Parsons was going
to Paris before going to London he
went with Lozier and registered at the
same hotel with him. They arrived at
ten o'clock in the morning, took ad
joining rooms, and, after breakfast, sat
down for a smoke and chat. Within
an hour young Lozier died OF acute
indigestion and heart failure.
Late in the afternoon Mr.. Parsons
set out to call on Jean Lozier and
state the unfortunate condition OF af
fairs. He was received with open
arms by Jean Lozier, his wife and the
beautiful Eugenie, and they did not
give him opportunity to state his mis-.
sion. To them he was Louis" and
as such he was obliged to accept their
attentions, at least for a time, until
he could break the news to them.
Each passing minute made It harder
for him TO do the self-imposed duty;
and after dinner he began to invent
excuses for getting out OF his predica.
ment; but he was at a loss for any
successful ruse, until bedtime came.
when he excused himself most posi-.
lively, stating that II would be abso.
lutely impossible for him to remain.
Jean Lozier earnestly insisted upon
his real reasons for declining the hos.
pitality, and he said:

you, will say that / arrived in Paris

o'clock this evening, and / am too DO
lite to disappoint the people who have

Besides, the hotel folks will not per.
nit the body to remain there longer. :"
With these words, he bowed and de-
parted Jean Lozier said that his pros
pective son-inlaw was a strangely joc-
ular young man, and that he did not
IKE joking on so grave a subject. The
next day he made inquiry, and found
that the story was true in every par.
ticular, and that the young man had
arrived, died and been buried as
stated; and now he tells OF his reason
for believing In the naturalization of

THE CONCIERGE.
Tyrsnt Rule Of the Autoerat Of che
Partisan Flat House.

The concierge" is considered to be
the bane Of the Partisan fat dweller's
existence His functions are supposed
to be the following:
The first and most important is to
collect the rent on quarter day: after
that he must see that the tenants do
not surreptitiously remove. The latter
precautlon seems to be somewhat un-
necessary. as rents i'm Paris are always
paid In advance.
He should also bring up your letters
at least twice a day, but as the con-
cierge is generally stout. middle aged
woman who has a decided objection to
climbing stairs the latter regulation re-
mains somewhat of dead letter.
In Paris the front door of most
houses is generally closed at 10 o'clock.
After that time admittance can only be
obtained by ringing a bell. The con-
cierge is obliged to open the door, and
she does this, as soon as she is awake,
by pulling a rope which hangs by her
bedside.
II she is a sound sleeper and you are
accustomed TO come home late at night.
the best thing to do is to look for an
other fat, as the concierge will put you
down as a bad tenant" and make
things as unpleasant for you as possi-
BILE.
II you never stop out late at night,
receive very few friends and fee her
heavily at Christmas, the concierge
will consider you as good tenant
until you give notice to leave, when
her interest in you suddenly vanishes.
AS there is nothing more to be ex-
pected from you and the incoming ten
ant is obliged to give a substantial tip,
called a "denier a Dieu," she is anx-
ious to speed the parting guest as
much as possible.
The concierge does sometimes make
a final effort to extract something more
from you by attempting to make you
pay a franc for every nail knocked in
the walls Of your fat, but this has been
decided to be illegal and may be safely
resisted.
But the Partisan concierge is really
unpopular because she represents a
andlord.-London Mail.

Washington. most interesting
case of the naturalization OF de.

this city by Dr. Edward Rafael of
Paris. who stated that he is cognizant
of the facts.
Louis Lozier was the intimate friend
OF Jean Lozier of Marseilles. and they
were friends from boyhood until ma
ture manhood although they were
not related by consanguinity. Louis
Lozier went to India when he was 81
years of age, and there remained until
he died. Corresl ondence between
hem was never interrupted. Louis
soon became the father of boy. who
was christened after his father. Three

mother
Twenty years elapsed. and those
Lozier friends meantime arranged for
the marriage of their children, Louis
and Eugenie AS they grew to youth
and maturity, the young folks began
an intimacy by correspondence, which
ripened into love.
Louis Lozier died in Calcutta one
week before the date set for his son
10 depart for Paris; all arrangements
having been made for young Louis to
bring back his bride with him.
The death of the elder Louis Lozier
caused a postponement of the wedding
plans for almost six months. During
that time constant correspondence
continued.
Louis Lozier finally left Calcutta fol
