VALUABLE VIOLIN FOUND.

A violin that seems to be q Stradi-
varius, OF at least the work of pu-
pill of the great italian violin maker,
has turned up in the possession of
Old Macon, one of the night watch
men at the post office building.
His father strummed plantation
ditties on it in slavery times and left
it as his only estate to Macon.
For 20 years the old night watch
man has sawed negro melodies from
its strings and showed it as the fiddle
that his father bought in slavery
times from an Italian at Montgom-
cry.
The violin was made 1I5 years
ago in Cromopa, Italy in the year

HOW CHILDREN SEE ANGELS
Images Of Their Own Purity and Low
lngness Are Revealed in the
Mirror.

The bishop Of London believes
that children can see angels. We be-
Eeve so, too-if the children hap
pen to look in a mirror.
A little child comes as near to be-
ing an angel as anything of which
the twentieth century has knowledge.
The twentieth century is not sure
but that the little child is the orig
inal and only sngel-that men have
believed in angels because they saw
children about them.
At any rate, the twentieth century
is quite confident that when the un-
clouded vision of the child sees an
angel shape, its eager thoughts have
merely projected upon the retina of
its sensitive mind an unconscious
image of its own purity and loving
ness.
Without reliance on supernatural
ism, we may thank the bishop of
London for re-establishing the con-
nection between children and angels.

/ believe the expression was FIRST APP
piled to that portion Of Fourteenth
street lying Just east Of Broadway,
which used to be the theatrical CEN
ter, but it has moved up town, in
common with everything else. It IL
quite likely that the word has sprung
from The Merchant Of Venice, but
all the commentators agree that
Shakespeare had in mind the island
Of Venice on which the exchange was
located, and not the bridge Of the
same name. In view of this, why
shouldn't the financial district be the
Rielto instead Of the theatrical dis
trictP When Shylock says: Many
time and oft, on the Rialto, have
you rated nc above my moneys and
my usances,' he undoubtedly referred
to the marts of trade. To make the
matter still more complicated, over
in Philadelphia a stretch of Broad
street just south Of the city hall is
locally known as the Rialto, for no
other reason than because it is where
the politicians congregate to discuss
