FoRGETFUL LEscHETIzKY.
Tho Great Pianist Was One Of the Most
Absentminded Of Mon.

U0 VI VbduSOS " 10 Ou0 OF S00 m00t
Absentminded Of Mon.
That famous pianist and still more
famous teacher Of music, Theodore
Leschetizky, was M of the most alb
sentminded of men.
One day, having experienced a slight
symptom he thought he would visit his
doctor and provide against q repeti-
ton. The day was cloudy, and he
started forth umbrella in hand. Be-
fore reaching the nearest avenue it be-
gan to sprinkle, and he hailed a pass
ing street car. Settled comfortably in
a corner, he sank into meditation and
was lost to material circumstances un-
til the conductor announced: END of
route. Passengers will please descend"
Obediently the musician descended.
He had passed the doctors house long
ago; besides, he had forgotten where
he was going. A friend who happened
to pass a few moments later, found
him standing on the curbstone-his
umbrella up, although it was no longer
misunderstanding intently at the
Drumming gutter as he tried to remem-
Der his errand. Explanations followed,
and the friend l%aughingly advised him
to return home.
"Also, you will have my company all
the way" he added genially. "That is
to say, if you do not mind stopping a
moment at DR.. So-and-so's, where I
have promised to call for a prescrip-
ton for my wife,"
mot at all; not at ALL" cried Les
chetizky, beaming. my dear fellow,
you have told me my destination. I,
too, was going to DR.. So-and-so for q
prescription"
The friends proceeded to the doctors
and obtained the two prescriptions.
They left together, and IN the top step
the sun was now shining brilliantly
the musician paused absentmindedly
once more to put up his umbrella.
"But, my good friend, you do not
need your umbrella" demonstrated his
friend. "The rain ceased an hour ago."
At that moment the spring with
which Leschetizky had been fumbling
yielded, and the umbrella sprang open.
His friend broke into a shout of laugh
ter.
"True, the umbrella you have Is more
suitable to the weather than your own,
but l am afraid the doctors little
daughter might not be satisfied with
the exchange. fear we must go back,
Leschetizky, for there will be trouble"
Leschetizky lowered the supposed
umbrella and looked at it. 1t was a
blue parasol of dimunitive size, much
beruf1ed and gayly strewn with bro
caded pink roses.
eyes," he agreed, 1--WE must go back
and exchange umbrellas. Besides, I
must get my prescription. I put it
into my purse, but / do not feel any
purse in my pocket. l think I must
have left it on the doctors table,"
"Leschetizky," inquired his friend,

Storm Routs Soldiers

SAN ANTONIO Tex. Aug. 1S.- United States soldiers and national guardsmen stationed at Fort Brown have been driven from their quarters and have taken refuge in the city hall and other public buildings at Browns vile on account of the e,ulf coast storm which Is striking that section tonight, according to meager reports received over the army wireless at Fort sam Houston from Fort Brown tonight.
 A terrific and destructive wind, ac- cording to this report, has wrought havoc in Brownsville and in the mili- tary camp. Those troops which took refuge in the court house were the Illinois. Iowa and Virginia regiments. They took two days rations. All wires to Brownsville are down and communi- cation except over the army wireless is impossible.
 At o'clock tonight General Funston received a wireless message from Gen eral James Parker at Brownsville in which he stated that the storm seemed to be abating there and that he thought perhaps the worst was over. The wind was then reported at 30 miles.
 A government wireless to Fort Sam Houston at S:35 D. m. said the trouble at the lighting station at Brownsville might leave the city in darkness and that the water supply is in danger. The Rio Grande is rising. the message said, and several washouts had been reported.
 General Parker commanding, or dered temporary abandonment of all military encampments. The wooden buildings of the Iowa camp were blown down, the Illinois camp was under water. the horses of the Illinois guard suffered greatly from exposure, much equipment had been lost, and all roads were impossible.
 Fort Sam Houston at il D. m. re- ported the following messages from a field wireless station erected at Me Allen, Texas, via the big radio at Brownsville:
 Half of the New York National Guardsmen's tents down and nearly that many at Llano Grande, Mercedes and Mission. Thirty thousand sol diers sleeping in public buildings. Four and one half inches of rain fell here. There is Hull now but new storm is reported coming from the east"
 It was stated at army headquarters here that fear was entertained of say ing the immense quantities of army stores and supplies in and around Brownsville. It was said that wind velocity of sixty miles an hour would damage the big national guard camps. An eighty mile wind 1t was declared, would level the camps, destroy canvas and lightly constructed buildings and equipment The latest reports said it was blowing seventy miles an hour.
