Wilton Andrews, the leader of the
special orchestra accompanying a
dramatic production which recently
visited Washington, told at the Gar
rick Club a curious story about a
violin pupil ho onco had.
"It -was at Wichita, Kan., whero I
was teaching in the early '80s, that
I got hold of this pupil," ho said.
"Ho -was a plasterer. Don't laugh
when I say on top of that that ho
was ono of the most promlsng violin
pupils I ever had. Ho was a quiet,
good-natured, sawod-off, named
Frank Barr, but everybody called
him Brlcky Barr, because ho had the
reddest suit of cowllcky hair that
over entered Into competition with
n stormy sunset. Ho was about four
Inches ovor 5 feot high, but aa
broad across tho back as Hncken
schmldt, with a pair of orang-outang
arms that reached almost to his
knees. Ho could pick up by the
rear axle a two-horse wagon loaded
with brick and raise It flvo feet clear
of the ground with one hand.
"I belonged to tho drifters when I
reached Wichita and organized my
class there. One evening, soon after
I'd got my scraping flock assem
bled, I was passing a mechanics'
boarding houso on the outskirts of
Wichita. This crlmson-Jialred runt
was sitting before ono of the open
front windows, sawing on a fiddle.
It wasn't a violin. It was a fiddle,
and a vicious fiddle. Tho man mak
ing the sounds on it was, I know at
once, an ear player. Yet there was
occasionally a certain sentiment true
and sound about the fellow's rude
performance. So I stopped and chat
ted with him.
"He told me that he didn't know
one note from another, but that he'd
had tho fiddle bug all his life. When
he told mo that he was a plasterer I
looked at his hands. They were
neither rough nor stiffened. Bricky
told mo that he always wore gloves
while plastering, not with the idea
of keeping his hands dainty, but so
as not to spoil them for his fiddling.
"Well, I took Bricky into my
Wichita class. Inside of six months
he had a safo lead on all the rest
of them, even if I had been com
pelled to make him unlearn all of his
ear-playing abominations.
"Insido of a couple of years I had
pushed Bricky, the plasterer, through
Wichtl, Kaiser and Krentzer, and he
didn't do half badly with the Dancle
show pieces that I occasionally let
him havo to relievo the tedium of
exercises.
"Bricky was a tractable pupil. But
one evening, after he'd been working
at the violin under my direction for
about a year and a half, something
occurred to convince me that Bricky
wasn't to ho fooled with. Ho was a
bit out of form with his lesson and
In a moment of petulance I knocked
his bow up from the strings of his
violin with my bow. Brlcky's bow
went flying across tho room.
"Bricky had a pair of thoso steely
blue eyes that a good many Western
men of extraordinary nerve have
been provided with. He turned
thoso eyes upon me for about fifteen
straight soconds and there were
gleams of a tigerish topaz in them.
He didn't say a word, but ho walked
over to a sofa in a corner of the
room. Ho deposited his violin upon
this sofa with great care. Then he
walked back to where I stood, turned
me around, took mo under the arms
from behind, toted me over to a win
dow of the second story room as If
I'd been a setter pup, held me sus
pended out of tho window or an
instant and then dropped no to the
ground.
"It was only a ten-foot drop and
the ground was soft from a recent
rain. No harm was done. I didn't
tako it to heart, particularly; aftor
I'd bad time to think It over.
"After that Bricky and I got on
perfectly well togethor, although I
nover knocked his bow out of his
hand again. After two years I gave
up my Wichita class and went to
Denver to tako a position as orches
tra leader In a theatre. A few years
later I quit mubic for a time and
went Into business.
"Occasionally my business called
me to Durango, Col. There wasn't
any worse town In the West at that
time than Durango. It was a Jump-Ing-off
place for bad men. Nearly
a dozen marshals none of them a
craven either had already, at that
period, beon put away by the Duran
go gun-nghter.
"When I reached Durango one
afternoon In the summer of 1886
there was a lot of excitement there.
Bud Caldwell had stuck up Bchlff's
Tiank that day. He had most of the
man-hunter of Colorado and New
Mexico Ued In bowknoU with fear
of hla at that time. Caldwell be
longed to tbat cUm of doprdoei
of which BUI the Kid waa another
sample that la, ha kllUd whether
there was aay &ealty for It or not,
lie had stood aff whole camps, tack
ing out of the catnpi afoot when
they'd babble or shot his horse. lie
waa so unerring en the shoot that the
most determined and reckleea bad
man potters fought shy of blat.
"On this day, then, Caldwell had
strolled Into Bchltr baak at aoon
and put the whole outfit back ef the
trellis under his pair of jura. He
instructed the cashier to stack up
all ef the gold and currency on the
oanUr ia front of hlw.
"Tho cashier didn't mako any su
icrfluoui movements In obeying.
The other employees of the bank,
also rocognllzng Caldwell swept all
of tho bank's ready cash, $16,000,
Into tho leather pouch suspended
from his neck by a strap. Then he
backed out tho door. None of the
bank peoplo had made a move ox
ccpt tho cashier, and the cashlor
only moved to do what Caldwell told
him to do. Caldwell got on his hprso
In front of tho bank and mado for
tho canons at a leisurely amblo.
"As I say, when I got to Duran
go, three hours after tho thing hap
pened, Durango waB a heap per
turbed over tho thing; but nobody
Boemcd to waut the $6,000 reward
which tho bank immediately offered
for Caldwell, dead or nllvo.
"Tho folks stood around and talk
ed about It in tho groggorlcs and gam
bling Joints and honkatonks, but
none of thoso quick-trigger people of
Durango had lost any $5,000 worth
of Bud Caldwell that they were anxi
ous to recover. Tho idea of camping
on Bud's trail wasn't even suggested
by any of them.
"About 7 o'clock that evening I
was having an after-supper smoko In
tho 12x20 lobby of tho Holl-Nor-Poto
Hotol, whoro I was registered, when
tho hotol backboard came up from
tho railroad station with a new guest.
He'd swung along from Deadwood.
He was Bricky Barr, my former vio
lin pupil of Wichita.
"I recognized him at onco, al
though he had picked up Borne bad
and disfiguring knife scars on the
left sido of his face. He remember
ed me, too, and he was kind enough
to say, in his foolish loyalty to his
first instructor, that, although he'd
heard Wilhelml aand Ilemenyl since
seeing mo Inst, he considered that I
had both of thoso renowned violin
ists eaten up in a limekiln when it
came to sure-enough fiddlln'.
"Bricky had been prowling around
tho new mining camps of Colorado
for some years, he told mo, and we
were having a pleasant time, talking
fiddle and Addling, when Brlcky's
attention wbb attracted by the up
roar of caloric talk in the bar over
Bud Caldwell's visit that day. Bricky
pricked up his ears at that and in
stantly lost Interest in the fiddle con
versation. I told him briefly about
tho Caldwell business.
" 'Anybody goln' nftcr him?' In
quired Bricky.getttng up and address
ing the thirty or forty men lounging
around. Two or three of them mut
tered that they hadn't lost any Bud
Caldwells.
" 'Well, you're a plgeon-livcred
lot o' junipers,' said Bricky, where
upon I Instantly ducked behind a
partition In the rear of the office,
not hankering for any lead ballast.
" 'Poor plasterer,' I breathed to
myself as I made the shelter of the
partition, 'you've fiddled your last
double-step in G major or in any
other key!'
"But, to my intense astonishment,
there was no fusillade. Bricky had
got by with his savage crack. I
peered from behind the partition.
They wero all standing fixed In their
position, looking curiously at Bricky.
He was a natural captain of men. I
observed that the topaz glitter I had
caught once before in his eyes was
there again. The others in that lob
by 'and bar seemed to be under tho
influence of that eye of Brlcky's, too.
Anyhow, not a man of them went
for his guns, despite the hot gibe
from the Hps of this stranger In tho
camp.
" 'Is there anything In It for fetch
ing the coyote in?' Brlcky Inquired
of tho crowd in general, after the
long pause.
" 'Five thousand,' two or three of
them chorused.
" 'Woll, that's a slick enough piece
of change to he worth tearing oft,'
said Brlcky, not In any boastful tone,
but with tho air of n man expressing
approval of a business transaction
that looked pretty good. 'Any om
brey here stake me to a couple o'
guns?'
"Well, I could seo them rubber
ing still harder at the red-haired
chap then. Ho had givtfn them all
that raking about being plgeon-llv-ered,
oh, without having any guns
on him at the time he spoke? It
was plain that they couldn't mako
anything out of Brlcky. But a big
ruffian of a camp terror brought his
mallot-llko fist down on tho bar.
" 'Ho ain't no gopher If he
Is a red head,' the ruffian bellowod.
"And then he strolled over to
Brlcky and handed him a pair of
.46's, butts foremost. Then he un
shipped his cartridge belt and Bricky
buckled It around his waist.
" 'Any hawss loafing about 'camp
that can get out of his own way?'
Inquired Brlcky then.
"The horse was In front of '"the
Hell-Nor-Pote Hotol In less than Ave
minutes. It was then 8 o'clock at
night and pretty black. They point
ed out the west trail to Brlcky as the
one Caldwell had taken.
"After the plasterer had vaulted
Into tho saddle I shook hands with
him, not without a bit of pride as the
only man In camp who kaew him
well enough to do that.
'"Brlcky, I said, 'you've got a
well chance to figure In one of those
bone-bleaching thing down yonder
In the canons. But, still, you've had
a pretty good time with yourself,
barring the working at your trade,
and you aeem ready enough to give
the keno yell and caeh la, We've all
to die tome time. You'll probably be
qualified aa a stringed Instrument
performer leng before I cut your
trail on the other aide of the big di
vide, aad when you aaake yaur eaah
ta dont you forget waat I uaad to
have m beey eiaglng late yea ke9
right on practising, whether It's a
harp or fiddle.'
" 'That ain't such a bad bunch o'
breezo, professor,' Brlcky replied to
me just beforo giving his horso the
spurs, 'hut any time any cheap stick
up man pipes me out 1 want you to
take a peek at my remains when the
Inquest's bcln' pulled off and see If
I look like a prairlo dog under my
shirt.'
"And with that Brlcky clattered
Into tho blackness of tho canon trail.
Ho got back Just thirty-six hours lat
er, almost to the minute, pulling up
his Inthery cayuse In front of tho
Hell-Nor-Peto Hotol from which ho
had started.
"Bud Calflwell was slung across
the front of Brlcky's saddle. Bud
couldn't have been much deader if
ho had fallen from a cago Into a
900-foot shaft. Both of his forearms
wero broken by bullets In exactly
tho same spot. Tho othor ball had
cut Bud's Jugular In two.
"Brlcky didn't oven tell mo, his
old friend and fiddle instructor, how
ho had got by with it. Tho bag,
with all of Bud's loot In It Intact,
was ewung around Brlcky's nock.
"Bricky dismounted, toted tho
dead man Into the barroom, laid his
burden down gently chough on a ta
ble, and then strolled over to tho
hank with the bag of cash. A crowd
of good citizens of Durango mlno
owners and superintendents and such
were already standing nround In
the bank when Brlcky got there,
waiting for his appearance.
"Tho president of the nbnk count
ed Brlcky out his $5,000 reward in
bills, and then ho pinned a gold star,
w'th 'Marshal, Durango,' engraved
on It, on tho loft sldo of Brlckky's
blue flannel shirt. That badge hadn't
been used by anybody for six months,
tho last man to wear It -having piped
out with such shocking suddonness
that no successor to him could be
found.
"It took Brlcky Barr, tho plasterer-fiddler,
just eight months to clean
Durango up and mako it the most
decent and safest camp, even for a
tenderfoot, from the Columbia to the
Itio Grande.
"There is, I suppose, a certain
amount of elemental savagery sur
viving in all of us. That, at any rate,
Is about the only excuse I havo for
saying that, of all my violin pupils,
sbme of whom became quite distin
guished, I never had such a glow of
pride ovor the achievements of any
of them as I did ovor my plasterer
on the day that he brought the most
heartless devil of the Southwest into
Durango on tho pommel of his sad
dle" Washington Star.
Marriage in India.
Marriage ceremonies in India are
full of pretty incidents. The chief
Incident of the better class Hindoo
marriage ceremony Is called the
Bhaunrl. It Is the sevenfold circuit
of a tree or post, or seven stops
taken in unison. The seven steps
are the seven grades of life. The
husband, often a boy of fourteen,
walks round and round solemnly
with the end of his coat tied to tho
end of the cloth which his girl-wife
wears on her head, symbolical of
their union. All tho time they do
this they must not look at each other,
but upward. The Hindoo i3 bound
to Invito his whole cast, within a
reasonable distance, to his wedding.
Fireworks play an Important part In
the rejoicings incident to an Indian
marriage. Tho marriage season Is
limited to two or three months of
the year.
Yarn Will Cut Steel.
Yarn, with powdered stono, can
cut a steel bar. Major McClaughry,
warden of the federal prison at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan., once found a
prisoner who was supposed to be
pounding stone working away at one
of tho bars to an outside window.
Tho man was induced to give a dem
onstration. A grating of the same
description was placed in his cell and
a guard stationed over him to watch
tho cutting process. With the lime
stone dust and silicate from tho stone
pile, tho yarn from his sock and a
little water, the man cut the bessem
er steel bar in eighteen working
hours. With some fine emery, a
chalk line and two wooden hand
holds to save his fingers he made
a clean cut of the othor bessemer
bar In five hours.
Ijost By Detention.
While a New York commuter was
stalled an hour on a train coming to
tho city because the electric engine
had blown out its fuses ho walked
through the train and made a calcu
lation. "There are six hundred per
sons on this train," he said. "An
hour lost for each persniv means a
loss of seventy-five worll! days for

A Job for the Hairless.
Bill Nye In his earlier days once
approached the manager of a lecture
bureau with an application for em

"Oh, yea," aald Bill. "What have

WHY WOMEN DO NOT MARRY.
Gertrude Atherton Says the "Sharp
ened Intellects" of Modern Girls
Encourage Independence.
Leaving entirely out of tho question
the substantial improvements demand
ed by the suffragists, and those Ill
balance children of their old ago
called suffragettes, there are certain
more Intimate disadvantages pertain
ing to tho Immemorial status of wom
an, which, unconsciously or otherwise
Influenco tho thousands of girls that
deliberately enter upon the Independ
ent life beforo man shall have a
chanco to marry, desert, neglect or
boro them. It Is possible that the
woman never lived who was born
without the instinct for romantic lovo,
and Its less romantic sequels, marri
age nnd maternity, says Gertrude
Atherton In Tho Delineator. Being
the only hope of the race until sci
ence learns to manufacture estimablo
Frankensteins, eyery sort of woman,
when young, Is as prone to the dis
ease of lovo as to tho microbous af
flictions of childhood; but the sharp
ened Intellects of the modern femalo
teach her to observe not only that
Indulgence In the primitive blessings
Is often productive of a tame happi
ness at best, but that It is mere
chance if she does not waste several
years of her active youth waiting for
some man to exert his inalienable
right to woo and propose.
A man may trample down barriers,
make opportunities, persist, over
whelm, but a woman, with double the
fascination and Intelligence, must
either stoop to contemptible scheming
or proudly bide her time, as likely
as not to miss her one chance of hap
piness because circumstances do not
give her the opportunity to reveal her
self to the kindred spirit.
If she can not pursue a man as a
man pursues a woman when he wants
her; if she has not the supremo at
tractions which bring a man to a wom
an's feet with a flash of the eye, she
can at least avoid the mean subter
fuges of tho husband-hunters, and
lead a life in which man as a love
factor is practically eliminated. She
can also enjoy much the same privi
leges as men, until, perhaps who
knows? one day she may meet in
this larger, fuller life a congenial,
many-sided creature who wants' some
thing more thai, a reproduction of his
grandmother.

been dancing half the night will ro
jolco In the knowledge that they are
only acting for the best when they
refuse to get up In the morning as
soon as they are called.
The proper pTan Is to treat the an
nouncement that the bath Is ready
with the contempt It deserves for ful
ly twenty minutes for, Bays this
worthy doctor, to get up at once and
energetically set about the business
of dressing Is actually dangerous to
the health.

Prolonged "forty winks" during tho
