"I hear," she said, "that you did pood business In Paris." To which Liszt gave the tart reply. "I only played some music ther" Business—that I leave to bankers and diplomatists." To another lady the musical cleric gave a still more sarcastic answer. "Ah, Abbe," she sighed, "what a great fortune you would make if only yon could be induced togo to America to play!" "Madame," returned Liszt. "if you stood in need of that fortune, believe me, I would go at once." The Names of Moses. Moses of Scriptural fame is called by eight different names in various places in the Bible. Bathlu. the daugh ter of Pharaoh, called him Moses be cause she drew him out of the water. Joe he bed, his mother, called him Jeku thiel, saying, "I had hoped for him." Miriam, his sister, called him .lared because she had descended after hlrn into the water to see what his end would be. Aaron called his brother' Abi Zanueh because ills father had de serted their mother. Amram, the fa ther of Moses, called the boy Chabar because he was again reunited to the mother of the lad. Kehatli. the grand father of Moses, called him Ablgdor because God had repaired the breach in the house of Jacob. The nurse of the grandfather of Moses called him Abi Socho because he was once hid den throe months in the Tabernacle. All Israel called him Shemsiiah lie cause "in his days God heard their cries and rescued them from their op pressors." Dot and Trousseau. Dealing with the weaknesses <vf ac tors, some noted for meanness, a Pari" contemporary relates a good story of Frederick Lemaitre, the celebrated ac tor, who was somewhat parsimonious. When his daughter was about to marry, Lemaitre agreed to provide the "dot" and the trousseau. "Dot," it may be observed, is the French equiv alent for the English "dower" or Scot tish "tocher." When the notary came to complete the contract and was reading the terms Lemaitre said: "The daughter of Frederick Lemaitre has not need of a dot. M. I.e Xotaire, strike out the dot." The prospective son-in-law was pres ent, ai.d lie bad the courage to reply: "The daughter of Frederick Lemaitre can easily clothe herself with the fame jof her father. M. I.e Notaire, pray strike out the trousseau." The Cry of the Loon. The cry of the loon is one of the strangest, weirdest sounds in nature. Those who have heard It can scarcely wonder that it has so often been woven into song and legend. A blood red rini; hanic round moon, t Hung round the moon. Ail, me! Ah, me! I heard the piplni? of the loon, A wounded loon. Ail, me! And yet the eagle feathers riire I, trembling. wove In my brave's hair. Almost nil writers who have attempt ed to describe the cry of this bird have likened it to unniirthl'ul laughter. Thus Mr. Vernon Bailey, speaking of the sound, describes it as follows: "Only 011 the lonely lake in the heart of the woods do you get the stiu'tliiig thrill of the loon's wild cry one clear, piercing note or a lonir. quavering, de- I mnnhical laugh that to the timid siig | gests a herd of screaming panthers." Four Kinds of Liars. The late Sir Frederick Braniwell was j famous both as a witness and arbi ) trator In engineering disputes.

Nobcd;, CMII i!i- lUti l!.c sincerity nf the players in a big orchestra like the Philharmonic or the New York Sym phony. Most of the time they take their work seriously, but sometimes the men break loose and play tricks 011 one another as though they were youngsters in school. Of course the audience knows nothing of these things; they're usually perpetrated in rehearsals. The red pepper trick is the common est. The jokers scatter it where the bassoon and trombone players are like ly to suck it up. The result is chokes and sneezes. Sometimes the epidemic reaches even into the strings, but of course the players 011 the wind instru ments get it worst. As a matter of fact, the jokers are playing with tire. "A confirmed sneezer ci'ii't get a job in a good or chestra, no matter how good a per former he may be," said a consistent concert goer. "Think of the effect of a rousing sneeze on a pianissimo: Why, it would spoil a whole concert, one sneeze would. A conductor has to guard against a sneeze as lie does Igainst inebriety."—New York Sun. A Lucky Game of Chess. A story is told of the Moorish prince Abul Ilejex, who was thrown into prison for sedition by his brother Mo bammed, king of Granada. There lie remained for several years until the king, fearing he might escape, placed himself at the head of a fresh revolt ■ and seized the crown, ordering one of his pashns to see to his immediate ex ecution. Abul Hejex was playing at chess when the pasha came and bade him prepare for death. The prince asked for two hours' respite, which was refused. After earnest entreaty he obtained permission to finish his game. He was In no hurry about the moves, we are told, and well for him he was not, for before an hour had elapsed a messenger brought the news that Mohammed had been struck dead by apoplexy, and Abul was forthwith proclaimed king of Granada. It was Indeed a small favor for the pasha to grant, but it altered the whole current of the king's career. Elephant Humor. The courage of a lion at bay, great •sit is, is 110 greater than that of the buffalo, and lie must yield his scepter to the elephant, declares H. L. Tangye In his book, "In the Torrid Sudan," as to courage, size, strength and intelli j pence. It is a temptation to declare ! that the elephant possesses a sense of ! humor. A herd of elephants once fell In with a train of donkeys. Their | Attention concentrated on the load the j donkeys carried. With all the mischief jof monkeys, the loads were torn i asunder and tlielr contents distributed | over half Ihe province. At Bor, on the Mountain Nile, the elephants were at one time full of practical jokes. Passing at night time through the vil lage. they would knock the sleepers up by demolishing their huts above their heads, then contentedly march away. Beauty and the Beast. A well known churchman was visit ! lng New York, accompanied by liis | wife, why is as beautiful as her life j mate is homely. They were walking | down Broadway one afternoon, and j the pair attracted much attention. ! One of two young "sports," evidently thinking to attract the favorable at tention of the churchman's wife, in 1111 audible aside remarked that it was I another case of"the beauty and the j beast." Quick as a wink the husband | turned and, as he swung his right to j the speaker's Jaw, scoring a knockout, j said, "I am a man of peace, but I nev , er allow any one to call my wife a I beast." Solitude. Solitude is dangerous to reason with out being favorable to virtue. Pleas ures of some sort are necessary to the : intellectual as to the corporal health, and those who resist gayety will be likely for the most part to fall a sue j ritice to appetite, for tlie solicitations 1 of sense are always at hand, and a ! dram to a vacant and solitary person ,Is a speedy and seducing relief. He : member that the solitary person is cer | taluly luxurious, probably supers!l I tlous and imssibly mad.
