Crimtno1ogsst Took No Thought Of
Money-Amusing Adventures.
One side Of the late Prof. Lombro-
SOS character little known to outsiders
made him adored by his children. cs-
pecially his two daughters, who looked
after him as though he were a child.
His two greatest domestic character.
istics were disregard OF appearances
and observation-disclosures, says London
letter to the New York Sun. When
he was invited out in the evening It
was the work OF two or three days to
get him keyed up to putting on his
dress clothes, and even then he was
capable Of weakening at the last mo-
ment and going out Just as he hap
pened to find himself.
Once when going to Rome he lost
his overcost, but was not in the least
discouraged. as he entered the first
shop OF ready.made clothing and
bought the top-most warm thing which
came to hand without even looking at
II. Il proved to be long. bright,
bottle-green cloak. which came down
to his heels and In which he looked.
with his broad.brimmed felt hat. like q
figure attired for the carnival.
His Observation-Disclosures was so great
.hat when under the care OF the home
circle he never attempted to look after
the money and would even leave the
house to go shopping without ever
looking to see II he had his purse with
him. Naturally when he Travelled the
consequences for his pocket were dis.
astrous. He invariably arrived home
without penny. no matter how much
he had taken with him. having either
lost II or had II stolen.
In Vienna once he lost his purse.
which frightened him SO that when he
recovered II he resorted to the expe-
dient Of dividing his funds into vari.
Gus small sums. which he concealed
about his person In all kinds OF un.
likely places. 30 that at least he would
not lose II all at one time. There was
a note In the lining OF his hat. another
In his boot. several pinned to his shirt,
and 30 on. but, notwithstanding this.
he arrived home In his usual penniless
condition.
