Disaster
was at a "The Dansant" held not long
ago,
And the cause of it all was a powerful blow.
Delivered with force, tvhere would you sup
pose? Well, it was put upon a most delicate nose.
You see all were dancing at usual pace.
And this roughest of dancers, with averted
face,
Kept swinging around with his terrible arm
Till he landed the blow that did all the
harm.
Of course, every one stopped; they called
her betrothed;
And he was so mad that his mouth fairly
frothed.
Amid many tears and much signs of hve
token
She said she was sure that the cute thing
was broken,
"Why, it seems, dear, as if it were hit by
some cobbles." '
He tenderly felt it, and said, "Yes it
wobbles,"
But by the next day, thattks to ointment and
unctions,
That sweet little nose was performing its
functions,
Now it wouldn't be fair and it wouldn't be
To g'me you the names in this tttrible
"bust."
Hut WW we or ctmfritd, everything's
right,

PASSED BY THE CENSOR
TWO years ago. tin Englishman of Jewish
extraction camo to this city with $2000.
lie rented a building' In Sth street, turned It
into a 25-ccnts-n-nlglit lodging houso for men,
spent a thousand dollnrHln Improvements nnd
Is clearing $6000 a year on his venture. Inci
dentally, ho nnd his father nnd brother own
nnd operuto 49 lodgliift houses In this city,
Now York nnd Boston. They nro modols In
ovory way, which Is perhaps tho reason why
thoy pay so well.
How this family came1 to go Into this busi
ness Ih ruthcr nn Interesting Mory. A mas
ter plumber by trade, tho father built up n
Rood business In Bradford, England. Thou
camo Illness nnd ho brought his family to
this country, koIiij? to Buffalo, whero ho
started a shoo store. Knowing absolutely
nothing about shoes, he munaged lo loso his
money, but mndo enough out of real estate
to recoup himself. So ho had an attic full of
nil sorts nnd conditions of shoes.
Then no ventured into tho painting hus
ncss. His partner was a good pulnter and n
better drinker and soon tho business collapsed.
So the lodging Iioubo Impresario accumulated
a bnrntul of paints. Next ho sought fortune
In tho clothing business, in which ho prosper
ed until the panic of 1S92 camo along and loft
him with $2000 in cash and many uusalablo
suits of clothing.
Then ho drifted to Boston, where ho opened
bin first lodging house. Fortune, backed by
hard work, smiled and now ho Is a trust, with
no trust for tho rooms.
ON 13TH STREET is probably tho oddest
storo in this city. There you can got a
box of mutches which do not light, or a per
fectly good pencil, with a black rubber tip,
which docs not write. Stngo money Is for
snlo there, and all kinds of tricks. Here, too,
fortune played ono of her peculiar tricks. Tho
proprietor, still youngr, was an amateur "ma
Blclan." In tho course of tlmo he accumu
lated a thousand dollars' worth of apparatus
nnd a building containing a store, which ho
could not rent. So ho started to sell his ap
paratus, auctioning it off to tho highest bid
der. Success crowned his efforts, and although
most of tho puzzles ho sold went for 10 cents,
yet ho cleared us high as $100 a week.
Now ho has a fuctory whero tricks aro
made, occupying four floors and a store. Ho
admits that his best asset Is a Arm belief -In
advertising extensively.
THE members of tho Board of Censors that
pass on moving pictures In this city are
still laughing over a Joke at their own ex
ponso and, which, although it happoncd ill"
nocently enough, camo very near Interfering"
with tho first performance of Dr. Raymond I.
Dltmars' wild unimal pictures, "Book of
Nature."
AVhen Doctor.DItmars nnd Gcorgo SleekXir,
his manager, arrived hero last Slonday, they
were met nt tho train by a wild-eyed opera
tor, who said that tho Board of Censors had
demanded nn lmmedlato review of tho pic
tures. Doctor Dltmars and Sir. Sloekor had
overlooked this technicality and were about
to proceed to tho Academy of Slusio when the
operator declared In great excitement:
"You got to cut out Venus."
"And what do you mean we've got to cut
out Venus?" said Sir. Sleeker.
"Well, tho censors have heard something
about a diving Venus In this show," said the
excited operator, "and they want to see what
It Is all about."
Doctor Dltmars and Sir. Sleeker in order
to go through tha formalities rushed thu Pic
tures up to the Board of Censor' headquar
ters, where the members were aswrpbled to
sit In Judgment.
It came to the sixth reel In the Jungle Clr
cut, when Sir. Meeker, assuming his beat
attitude, declared: "We will now allow tke
picture ot the wonderful diving Venus. The
first time that she has ever exhibited her
self." The Board sat hack In expectancy.
Then Venus made her marvelous dive.
There was a roar of laughter from the
members of the Board, who, after enjoying
the Joke to the utmost, declared that it waa
on them and that they had been much edi
fied. A'enua is a comedy salamander qf
the frog variety and does her wonderful
diving specialty In a tank as big as a gold
fish bowl.
