A Doleful Mood.
The proprietor of a Paris cafe no
ticed that after he had refused to give
his pianist an increase of salary the
number of his customers dwindled .
rapidly. It was only when all but
one diner had deserted him that he
discovered that the pianist had been
inflicting Chopin's "Funeral March*'
on the audience nightly. The pianist,
who was proceeded against in the law
courts and was fined 5 francs, pleaded
that he played according to the mood
be felt in after his request had been '
refused.
Fashionable Fainting.
In an old English scrap book is the
following clipping, dated June 1. 179U:
No Woman can now dis<i>ver tier
Distinction of true Breeding better
tban by a well-timed Kami at the
musical Festival In Westminster Ale
bey. The Noble Managers fly from
tboir Box to her Assistance. "Who Is
she?"—" Lovely Girl!"-"Keeling Crea
ture!" instantly reverberates from one
Aisle to another. But like all touish
Airs, this. It seems, is now descending
to Inferior Ranks; for no less than
three City Ladies were among the Ave
female Painters of Saturday last. To
prevent therefore the further Extent
of this fashionable influenza the Man
agers. we learn, intend issuing Some
thing like the following Notice, in Imi
tation of the Lord Chamberlain's No
tice to the Courtly Dancers, viz:
"Such Ladies who Intend to Faint at
the next Abbey Performance, are de
sired to send their Names. Rank, and
Places of Abode to Mr. Ashley, on or
before 12 o'clock to-morrow; that a
sufficient Proportion of Bars Rest may
be set apart. In Order to give to the
whole Performance the desired Ef
fect!"
Waylaying Mendelssohn.
After the Loudon performance of "St
Paul" by the Sacred Hannoulc society
at Exeter hall In 1837 Mendelssohn's
roach was waylaid at midnight on bis
way to Dover, but instead of being
robbed the composer was presented
with a silver snuffbox by a group of
devotees. He bad behaved with charm
ing grace In an awkward Incident
The London performance In question
was to have been conducted by him
But the Birmingham festival was just
duo. and he was the great attraction
there in the same oratorio. It was felt
that his appearance as conductor ID
Loudon at that juncture would detract
from the importance of his visit to
Birmingham. Mendelssohn saw the
point and canceled his London en
gagement. But he attended the per
formance and was so winning to all
concerned—audience, performers, offi
cials—that he turned a disappointment
into a scene of wild enthusiasm.
A Summer of Haze.
Europe and Asia were covered by
fog during the summer of 1783. Says
Gilbert White (letter 109): "The sum
mer of the year 1753 was an amazing
and a portentous one, ♦ * * for, be
sides the alarming meteors and tre
mendous thunderstorms, * ♦ • the
peculiar haze or smoky fog that pre
vailed for many weeks in this island
(England) ami in every part of Europe
and even beyond its limits was a most
extraordinary appearance. The heat
was intense. Calabria and part of the
isle of Sicily were torn and convulsed
with earthquakes." Cowper also re
fers to this phenomenon in speaking of
"nature, with a dim and sickly eye."
A Phil May Anecdote.
One winter night an old hawker en
tered the bar of the Old Bell tavern.
Fleet street, and offered the customers
sets of three studs for a penny. Phil
May said to him:
"You are just the man I want!"
He took only one stud and gave the
hawker a five shilling piece. The bar
maid said to Phil May:
"I believe. Phil, you would give your
coat to the first beggar who asked for
it!"
"Well, miss," replied the artist.
There would be no harm in that. St.
Martin gave his coat to a beggar, and
he was a better man than Phil May.
I am only a wicked sinner!"— London
Tatler.
Rockefeller Pleads Not Guilty.
New Yor':, Nov. 6.—William Rocke
feller, Standard Oil multi-millionaire,

United States district court and en
tered a plea of not guilty to the indict
ment charging him with conspiracy in
connection with his acts as a former

and Hartford Railroad company. He
was placed under $5,000 bond to in
sure his appearance for trial.
