NEWS TRAVELS IN HOSPITALS
Wireless outdone in Rapidlty with Which Patients Get Forbidden
 Information.

"A very efficient system of wire- less telegraphy exists in every hos- pital," said the nurse. Apparently all patients have the knack of trans hitting messages, otherwise the news of serious cases would not travel so quickly and accurately from ward to ward. It is contrary to the rules for hospital attendants to retail gossip, and most of them do observe strict secrecy, yet notwithstanding that pre- caution there is never an interesting case in the building whose history is not known and discussed in the re- mOtest corner.
 Last weekaa boy suffering from 8 peculiar kind of throat trouble was brought into a first floor ward. The doctors were very much interested in the case, yet ithey took special pains never to mention 1t in the hearing of another patient. But for ail the good their caution did they might as well have lectured on the case in every ward; for when the boy died men and women all about the hospital said to the nurses:
 .''So that poor boy died, did he? guess there wasn't much hope for him from the start
 Now. how did the news travel?"

Venetian Palace Where Wagner Die

Apropos of the return from her chateau in Styria of the Duchesse della Grazia to her palace in Venice, Paris contemp orary gives an interesting ac- count Uf Vendramin, which is not only one of the most beautiful resi- dences On the canal. but it is closely associated with the history of the city of the doges,
 Itewas built in 1441. German princes occupied 1t at first. Then it passed Into the possession of the duke of Mantua, who purchased it for 5O,0OO ducats of gold. It was the scene of great social events under the Arch duke Charles Ferdinand of Austria and his wife, Anne de Medicis, in 1852, and through them the palace has come into the possession of the pres ent owners through marriage. It was here that Richard Wagner died ir 1883. The desk at which he wrote Tristan und Isolde" is carefully pre-. served. Some years ago a plaque was affixed to the palace showing its con. nection with the great composer

Sport of Cellar spottlna.

Collar spotting," the new automo bile sport, is at it's best when the streets are dirty enough to hold pud dles of water. When the broadly. tired wheel of rne machine strikes such a puddle a thin but solid sheet of water is thrown upward and out ward. the path it takes being deter mined by the speed of the machine, the depth of the liquid and, to a cer- tain extent, its consistency. These three factors make the aiming of the sheet matter of great skill. When the puddle Is close to the curb it Is possible for the expert spotter, by swerving into 1t, to throw the sheet in such way as to hit mans col lar-even when it's narrow one or the white feathers on a woman's hat. Not every one is as expert as this, but tho great fun of tho sport lies in the fact that even when you miss your aim you're pretty sure to hit something, if it's only skirts or trousers of pedestrians.

Srcritized Coal

Cral in the mines is ore of the things freest from germs. Old-time doctors used to notice coal miners wounds healed fast, thougl begrlmed and besmeared with coal dust. For a long time it has been thought that breathing in coal dust caused lung dis eases in miners. Some experts find fresh coal is as good as sterilized, and say miners have lung trouble because they do not, take the trouble to put or their damp and sweaty clothing be- fore goin9 from the mine to their homes. thus taking cold in the open air walk Experts say our miners bught to put on warm and dry clothes at the mouth of the mine. But it seems the miners have minds of their own, and although the coal companies in some places fixed up hot and cold water baths and dressing rooms at the mouth of the mines the men would not use them. but went home to wash and dress. as had been -their rtstlm :or geneJations.

slunder. of Royal Authors.

Royal authors sometimes need . deal of editing. A glartng instance Is Frederick the Great, whose spelling and punctuation astoundcd Carlyle says the London Chronicle. "A steure" for "a cette heure' was 2 specimen of the former, and as for punctuation, he never could understand the mys- tery of 1t; he merely scatters few commas and dashes as if they were shaken out of a pepper box upon his page and so leaves it."
 How, asks Carlyle, can such sloven' Illness be explained in a king who "would have ordered arrest for the smallest speck Of mud on mans bun belt, indignant that any pipe clayed portion of 2 mar should not be per fectly pipe clayed?" He can only con- clude that Frederick really cared lit- tie about literature after all. Also ''he never minded snuff upon his own chin, not even upon his waistcoat and brooches" "I am king and above grammar" said another monarch.

No Occaslon for Surprise.

This story is told of Forrest, the great tragedian:
 Forrest was playing in Richard III.," and the part of Catesby had to be taken by g low comedian, who saun. tered on the stage at the wrong mo ment and uttered the famous words. My lord, the duke of Buckingham is taken" in the wrong place.
 Forrest clenched his fists in rage, but otherwise took no notice of the remark.
 Later on the comedian repeated the words in the right place. and when the king expressed surprise at the news Catesby folded his arms, walk ed boldly down the stage. and re marked to the great actor in loud tones:

READY TO FOLLOW LEADER
Unless 1t Is Fear, There Is No Con. tagion So Quickly Spread as
 That of Emotion.

George F. Bass used to tell story that illustrated the contagion of emo. tions.
 An old darkey sat by his fireside in a dejected frame of mind ruminating on the miseries of the human race. Towser, his faithful hound, lay on the hearth with his jowl on his paws, ab- sorbing the heat in blissful som. nolence. Presently the master groaned sepulchrally. Towser courteously opened one eye for a second and tapped on the floor with his tail. A silence. Then said the master: "Houn', man am, bon to trouble as de spa'ks fly upwa'd."
 Towser shook off slufnber for mo- ment. lifted his head and eyinced his sympathy by steadfast look, then settled down to dreams again, An other silence. Then the master in- spired to fuller expression of his woes by the response of his auditor, con- tinued:
 "Houn', dis y 'arth am a place O trouble an a vale O tears; de debbil he roams, up an down like 8 hongry lion seekin' who he may devour; de ways of de weeked am shorely full O tribbalation."
 This time Towser's nose was lifted toward the ceiling and long, lugubri- ous woo-o-oW-woo-woo! expressed his acquiescence to his masters senti. ments.
 "Yes," was Mr. Bass's conclusion, emotions are contagious; all that Is needed is proper leader"
