siders to be the real nature Of the

ply a degree OF mental infatuation
approaching to lunacy, and we
should be averse to supposing that
these stalwart men and beautiful

for the madhouse. Such a posi-
bflity cannot be quietly contem-
plated.
A broad view Of the entire situa-
ton leads rather to the conviction
that the phenomenon which we are
now considering is due not so
much to q disordered mind as to
emptiness Of mind, 30 that what
is now going on is to be explained
on the familiar principle that ma

these people are throwing them
selves into these fantastic gambol-
ings in order to satisfy an aching

CUT BY POISON DAGGER.

Charles A. Hirschfelder, a well.
known amateur collector Of antiques
of Jamaica, Long island, was han.
ding an Arabian poisoned dagger
said to be 1000 years old, when the
1s-inch blade suddenly fell from the
scabbard. Instinctively Mr.. Hirsch.
fielder grabbed for the dagger, to
save its ivory hilt from damage, and
its point entered his palm.
Knowing the tip was poisoned and
that it would be useless to wait fol-
a physician, Mr.. Hirschfelder quick
ly opened the wound until it bled
freely and then sucked vigorously
until assured all danger was past.

oVERcoMES Badness.

An ingenious Hungarian doctor
has found way effectually to con-
ceal any ones badness. Taking q
fine hair, he ties it with both ends
free to a bit of thin gold wire, which
he then runs under his patients
scalp and twists so that it holds the
hair permanently in place. This &C.
ton he repeats until he has placed
at least five hundred hairs in each
square inch of bald scalp. So fine
is the wire that one gram of gold is
enough to anchor fifty thousand
hairs. The hair thus attached can,
it is said, be washed and brushed
just as if it were a natural growth,
and will keep its luster and brilliancy
for many years. Henceforth, "silver
threads among the gold" will have a
new signifcance.-Youth's Compan.

IS SECOND PLYMOUTH ROCK
New Hampshire Town Has Historical
Relic Which Is Object of Attrac-
tlon to Visitors.

Did you know that New Hamp-
shire has a Plymouth rock as well
as Massachusetts? It's a historical
fact, which has been recalled by the
calling for the fifth time of Rev. DR..
Albert L. Smith to the pulpit of the
Methodist church at Plymouth,
n. H.
According to the Boston Post, the
tradition is that Methodism in that
place owes its origin to a young man
by the name of Elijah Hedding, who
afterward became the famous bishop
of that name. 1t is said that he
came to a schoolhouse across the
Pemigewasset river in Holderness,
expecting to preach. Somehow he
was denied admission. Not to be
daunted, he took his flock and retired
a short distance into a field, where
there was large boulder, and upon
it preached from the text: upon
this rock l will build my church, and
the gates of hell shall not prevail
against it." The boulder is still
known as pulpit rock" and is
yearly visited by scores of summer
tourists.

Mrs. Fannie eloomfieId zeieIer.

In reviewing the important musical
affairs of the past five years, the
writer of this article can recall no
event more finished, delightful, thrill
ing and wholly satisfying in every
particular than the magnificent per-
Torrance presented by Mrs. Fannie
Bloomfield Zeisler, Americas greatest
pianist, in the Interpretation of her
program last evening at the Grand
opera house.
The enhancing tone quality, the in
surpassable technique, the assurance
or confidence that is born of knowl
edge from which absolute mental con-
troll is developed combined with de-
cided personality holds her audience
breathless throughout the program.
Mrs. Zeisler is not only wonderful
technician; she plays with all the
firmness of refined mind, heart, and
soul, attaining magnificent heights of
mastery and glorious Interpretation.
The program of last evening was
long and diversified and was one that
would make eXacting demands on the
Interpretive ability of the artist
Her Interpretation Of it was most
satisfying in every detail, from the
grandeur and dignity of the heavier
numbers, the scintillating brilliancy OF
others to the tender, delicate nuances
of shading in the daintier compost
tons, portraying the breadth, beauty
and poetry of the artist mind.
The exquisitely finished art Of
phrasing. wealth of poetic element
defining the whimsicalities and dainty
touches IN the smaller numbers, the
facility and ease with which the al
most insurmountable technical diff
! ficulties were literally thrown off. thu
complete mastery Of technical re
source, and the splendid intellectual
Ipoise-all combine to characterize thu
great art of this distinguished Amer
iican artist. Every number on TIL
program deserves special mentor
but suffice it to say that absolute pei
fection was attained Mrs. Zeisler'
appearance elected great enthusiasm
among all music lovers. 1t is hope
that Mrs. Zeisler will appear in Ket
kuk again at some future time.
Mrs. Zeisler was most heartily al
'olanded at the close Of each numbe
and she was forced to respond agai
and again to encores. The audienc
was especially enthusiastic and
seemed as if they could not bring tn
artist back frequently enough.
