CAGLIOSTRO.
Effect Of a Draft of the Notorious
Charlatan's Elixir Of Life.


charlatan's Elixir Of Life.
Cagllostro. the famous eighteenth
century charlatan. was the hero OF
many strange stories. A great lady
who was also, unfortunately for her
self, an old one and was unable to re-
sign herself to the fact was reported
to have consulted Cagliostro, who gave
her vial OF the precious liquid (hls
"wine of Egypt, with the strlctest in
junction to take two drops when the
moon entered It's last quarter. While
waiting for this period TO arrive the
lady who desired to be rejuvenated
shut up the vial In her wardrobe and
the better to insure its preservation in
formed her maid that It was n remedy
for the collie.
Fatal precaution! BY some mis-
chance on the following night the maid
was seized with the very malady of
which her mistress had spoken. Re-
membering the remedy so fortuitously
at hand, she got up, opened the ward
robe and emptied the vial at a draft.
The next morning she went, as usual.
to wait on her mistress, who looked at
her In surprise and asked her what she
wanted. Thinking the old lady had
had stroke In the night, she said;
"Oh, madam, don't you know me? I
am your maid"
"My maid is a woman of fifty" was
the reply, "and YOU
But she did not finish the sentence.
The woman had caught a glimpse of
her face in mirror. The wine of
Egypt had rejuvenatod her thirty
years.
Cagliostro's valet was as great a
rogue as he and posed equally as n
mystery mOnger. Your MASTER" said
a skeptIc TO him one day, "is taking us
all In. Tell me, is it true that he was
present at the marriage at Cana? ?"
'You forget, sir" was the reply, II

JARRED THE BANK.
Sensational Plays That Have Been
Pulled Off at Monte Carlo.

The big players have never succeed
ed in carrying away very much money
from Monte Carlo. In 1905 London
newspaper published a story to the eff
feet that au American from Chicago
had won 100000 francs there in one
day and had taken the money home
with him, but his name was not given.
In the early nineties the sensation at
Monte Carlo one season was the play
Of a Chicago youth of twenty-one,
named Harry Rosenfeld. who made
something like 100000 francs in a
week, playing during the day, but lost
most of 1t at baccarat at night after
the casino had closed.

the well informed man. "well," he

Long ago Choctaws inhabited the sec

of Mississippi and Alabama and trav-
ersed by the stream that song was
about. Nearly a century ago a white
mana carpenter-came among the
Indians. He lived ON the banks of
the stream and among other things
made rude coffins for burials. Indians
at that time "buried" their dead upon
an arbor supported by poles, but they
gradually came to the white mans
custom of burying In earth and went
to the white man carpenter to get
their boxes. From this incident, I am
told, the stream received its name
Tomb meaning box and Tkbi
meaning make or maker, only they
added the word 'bok,' which signifies

coin ON the ticket window, said:
"Give me ticket to the gallery"
"You are at the wrong window

gaze wander to the iron fire escape
which was suspended above the side
walk.
