Famous Songs.

1t has been said that the late H
Trotere, who composed such famous
songs as I'm Old Madrid" "The Death.
less Army" ashore" and Go to
Sea-" could claim the distinction of
being the worlds quickest composer,
and there was certainly some justifl-
cation for this claim.
His beautiful song, ashore" was
both written and composed in 40 min
utes In a restaurant, while the strains
Of I'm Old Madrid" (of which 100000
copies have been sold) was also the
result Of sudden inspiration. The
melody came to the composer while
he was on his way from the Royal
Aquarium; lest it should escape him,
he rushed into public house in Roch-
ester row, seized biscuit bag and
wrote down the air. H. Trotere Is
also said to have composed 1.-THE
Brow of the Hill," written a letter
about it and run quarter Of mile
to post 1t, all in eight minutes.
The late Sir Arthur Sullivan was
also wonderfully rapid worker. It
is related that he wrote the overture
to 1.-THE Yeoman of the Guard" in
twelve hours, and that Of "1olanthe''
between a late dinner and next morn
ing's breakfast. On one occasion he
wrote the music for solo dance for
salvioni so quickly that it was actu-
ally being rehearsed within quarter
Of an hour from the time he set about
composing It.

Realities Of Life.

The great art of life, SO far as l
have been able to OBSERVE consists
in fortitude and perseverance. have
rarely seen that man who conscien'
tiously devoted himself to the studies
and duties of any profession and did
not omit to take fair and honorable
opportunities of offering himself to
notice when such presented them.
selves, has not at length got forward.
The mischance Of those who fall be-
hind, though flung upon fortune,
more frequently arises from want of
skill and perseverance. Life is like
q game of cards. Our hands are al
ternately good or bad and the whole
seems, at first glance, to depend on
mere chance. But it is not so, for In
the long run the skill of the player
predominates over the casualties Of
the game. Therefore, do not be dis
couraged with the prospect before
you, but ply your studies hard and
qualify yourself to receive fortune
when she comes your way.-sir Wal

Paris-A commemorative plate IL

house, which was built in 1407 by the
philanthropist Nicolas Flannel, is now
known as the Hotel Helvetia, and also
as the Taverne Nicolas Flannel. 1t was
originally built as hostelry for work

consumed. Some years go when the
front Of the house was restored in
scriptions were laid bare which re-

GUESsER IS 0uSIED.
Government Employed Man to
Estimate Fish Weight.
Discharge Expert Who Had to Tell
on Sight Number Of Pounds In
Each Salmon Bought for
Breeding.

Bangor, Me.-The official guesser
for the United States government has
lost his job. For years the govern
ment has bought live salmon upon the
good eye of a veteran fisherman, who
took Z squint at each fish and then
put down in his book what he guessed
to be the right weight. Tho bills
were paid accordingly-thousands OF
dollars.
Every year the government buys
from 600 to 1000 live salmon for
breeding from the weir owners ON the
Bucksport, Verona, Orland and Penob-
scot shores. The price paid Is the
market rate, from 20 to 80 cents a
pound, with 60 cents bonus for each
dsh for the trouble of keeping them
:. olive.
To get at the exact weight of a
live salmon is practically impossible,
, for it is very delicate work at best
In dipping them from the pound" in
the weirs to the "car," which Is an
old dory filed with water, carefully
lined with cotton flannel and covered
with netting, which Is covered out
side with canvas The utmost caution
is necessary, for in the spring the
salmon is strangely delicate. So it is
that weighing them is entirely out
Of the question.
The government has for years hired
veteran fisherman to make the
rounds Of the weirs on the little pow
or boat and keep account of the fish
All the man had to 60 by was his
Judgment, but he could tell by a
glance at a fish, even in the semi
darkness of the car, about what II
would weigh-ten, twelve, fourteen OF
perhaps sixteen or eighteen pounds
1t was guessing, but by years of expe
rience in handling fish he could guess
very near. At any rate, his guessing
was accepted for years by the fisher
men who sold the fish, as we'll as by

Had Confidence In Christians.

DR.. Courtney H: Fem of Picking
relates e. significant incident OF the
recent disorders in China, says the
Far East. At Paotingfu the local
banks were so much frightened at
the, revolutionary outlook that they
suspended every sort of payment
across their counters. Not even gov
eminent officials nor teachers OF gov
erlment schools were able to get
money for necessary expenses. But
a missionary in the city found it i'm
rortant to obtain 5000 for current out
lay at the mission, and he sent mes
senger with an appeal for this sum.
Greatly to his surprise, the messen-
ger returned with $500 in currency
and an offer from the bankers of $500
more ii the mission would be kind
enough to take It, The bankers were
in serious doubt whether the govern
ment was going to continue or not,
but they were entirely confident that
Christian missions would persist,
and that money loaned to the mission
aries was really safer than in their
own Golfers.

PARIS CABS MUST BEHAVE

content.

Paris.-The cochmen and chauffeurs
Of Paris are muttering and protesting
over the new series of regulations
relative to street traffic. Frenchmen
dislike changes Of any kind, and it is
not strange that the veteran Partisan
cab drivers should grumble over any
rules which pretend to tell them how
they shall drive through the streets Of
Paris which they know so intimately.
Louis Lepine, the project Of police,
has, however. become believer in
the system of the American inventor,
William Phelps Emo, which has al.
ready been so successfully applied in
New York and London. Each coach
man and chauffeur has been given a
little book dealing with keeping to
the right side Of the road, the rights
and duties of hirers and divers re-
spectively, and such questions as sig.
nails, speed and the treatment of
horses.
There is also a special page devoted
to the regulation of traffic on the
world-famous avenue. the Champs Ely
sees.
