GAUTIER COMPOSED
 WHILE ON TOP OF BUS
Great French Novelist Would Leave Guests for Minutes at the Time
 to Stare at Walls

From the St. James Gazette.
 Theophile Gautier composed much of his best work while riding on the tops of buses, and so thoroughly did his brain do it's work in these strange places that on coming home he would sit down and write as steadily as if the words were being dictated to him. His faculty of concen- tration was so great that while compos- ing novel .on bus, his sub-conscious self was set free to listen to remarks made to him, and to answer them with out disturbing the real current of his thoughts.
 In his own house. too. hn would give even more remarkable demonstrations of this somnambulism. In the middle of showing the guest the pictures that lined his walls a dreamines would come into his voice. and eyes, and his words wo-ld come slower and slower Then, with the dull heavy movement of a somnambulist he turned his back on his guest, and noiselessly like somnambulist again. went to the door and opened and shut it behind him so quietly that not even the cats asleep on the armchairs were awak- ened.
 Up the little wooden staircase went the dull, heavy clump, clump. clump of his slippers, vanishing up above Down be- low the visitor waited, wondering what he should do. If he scented an adventure he stood by.' as Captain Cutie would say, in the salon waiting for something to turn up. Otherwise he would remain gaping in astonshment
 Alter the lapse of some minutes, some- I tunes a great many minutes, the clump clump, the dull, heavy clump of the soles or his slippers was heard at the top of the staircase. It came nearer until it mingled with the sound of the opening door, and then Gautier walked in, still somnambulist, and stood in front of his guest, whose astonishment was he,ght- ened when his host, with the most natural tone in the world, went on with the sen tence he had broken off short when he went upstairs. He had not the least mo- ton of having left his guest. His expedi- ton mad been made to a room on the sec ond floor, where he sat down on the shelf of large oak cupboard What did he do up there? Nothing whatever. He simply stared at the walls. He was not conscious of being there. But when, an hour later, he clambered on the top or bus, his brain already contained some bits of chef de'oeuvre. They had taken shape there while his guest down below was wondering what he was do- ing.
 Rarely. if ever, has a man such a gift Tor getting out of himself He would en- large on his magnificent golden tea and breakfast service, when the most hum drum china lined his shelves And though his servants were all treated in the most fatherly way, Gautier would tell you that he never permitted them to utter word in his presence, that he only employed negroes.

be given to seven persons, so the man. agers here were slightly put out over the short supply Active efforts were made to get cars shipped here on the rush from Louisville, but none have been promised yet. Several sales, we are told, have been made, but deliv- cries have not been made yet. Again, the Ford company. of which the Rrownell company is agent here, have felt the pressing short supply. MT. Rrownel said yesterday that out of a delivery of three car loads during the week he did not have one machine left and was making the wires burn trying to get additional deliveries. The automobile public in Birmin gham seems to be rather fond of the Ford cars.
 The last rush on automobiles, 1t Is said, has overtaken the Hudson, for which Charles Denegre Is agent. He said yesterday morning that he was willing to complain about only one thing and that was his inability to get deliveries. Mir Denegre pointed out that he had made several sales, but had failed to deliver by reason of the shortage of automobiles. He said that lopes were held out and that, perhops, deliveries will be made soon now. Tn addition our friend. Walter Melville Drennen, who is getting away with an unusual number of Overland cars, is hard pressed for deliveries but is man aging some way to take care of his patrons
 This shortage of automobiles may be caused to a certain extent by short age of railroad equipment, which has the country gasping right now for freight cars. Tho railroads are seem

 Brown smiled in superior fashion.
