The Russian composer asked hltn to step out on the balcony and amoke a cigarette. They sat down, twisted their cigar* cues and puffed the blue clouds into the air. After a long pause, Blr A. Bullvan observed: "Tou are a great admirer of Beethoven, I presume?" "Yes." said Rubinstein "And V/agner?" "No," was the reply. Not another word was spoken. They rocked themselves In their chairs and smoked away. After a very long time Bullvan said: I think It Is time for roe to be goIng." "Don't say so," said Rubinstein. "Stay a Wt longer. It Is so nlc? to talk to you." Sullivan stayed and went on rocking himself into the small hours of the morning, when he got up and said: "I must be off now: I think we hove chatted long enough."

Chicago Record: Hornet line* mathematics fall utterly of helpiifg ono to arrive at a conclusion In which figures and calculation* have a part. luer* 1* a young man employed In a Chicago bank who can tell you off-hand what will bo the Interest-earning ability of u ccond mortgage on a piece of property which has been twice sold for apeclal taxes, and which Is tied up In litigation concerning minor heirs: and with hl? left hand tied behind him he can promptly discover the profit* arising out of the disposal of a promissory note for wJdch a carload of grindstones were given in exchange, before the grindstone man went Into the hands of a receiver: but he cannot for the life of him toll how much he is out on that counterfeit dollar. The dollar came to Mm In the ordl nary course of business. and he. being engrossed ut the time in considering whether ht? would have wood or steel hnndle-bars put on, accepted It as sound money, and was later called upon to make good. Then the coin lay around on the desk far two or throe months, being used an a paper-weight, a souvenir and a horrible example. It begun to Ret blue and moldy looking and the goddes* of liberty assumed an unhealthy cast of countenance. The young man Anally sickened of Its 'mournful presence and determined to add It to the world's circulation. He scorned to do anything dishonest, and so one day he spoke to a ftreet-car conductor about the matter. "I'm going to flva you a bum dollar," he *ald, simulatively, wondering how the man would receive the proposition. "If you do," said the other, quickly. "I'll only Rive you forty cents change. The preliminary negotiations being thus successfully passed over, the passenger handed in hi* pewter dollar and received his forty cents and his transfer slip. Two weeks afterward1, reluming Inn crowded car from the theatre.the young man from the bank handed the conductor a $10 hill He received a handful of all kinds of mineral money, and. stuffing n Into his pocket, continued to talk to the girl. The next morning he found among his other pocket content* a familiar fuee It was the face of the spoiled goddess of liberty, her complexion havinn beer. rubbed up a bit with some I .?.l mntnl tvilloh Hllf ?hi?

Thou the bank clerk sat down and tried to discover Just where he st<v>?l in the matter of profit .ind loss. taking the coin from the start At first he though: he was out $l ! ". Then he decided that It was tlfty-five cent*, then ninety cents; then h?* called In help, and for two hours :hat morning work was suspended in :h<- hank w that hi* fellow-employe* might calculate the thing for him. After a time the cashier was told of it. ind. being a man of large financial affair*. he sneered at sh?* sheet of figures which showed ? loss of t\ 10. and said he would run it over In his mnd and tell the result in ten seconds Half an hour afterward the cashier and the vice president closed their desks and went out walking In the open air to ease the baffling brain fak which had come upon them. That afternoon the cashier told the young clerk he would have to discharge him. HI* dollar problem had so disconcerted and disorganised affairs In the hank that none of the employes or officials was fit for duty, and hi* presence would be a constant reviver ?f that vexatious puxxle. The next day the cashier sent a messenger after the clerk and summoned him back to his desk. Said he had worried all night over that matter and had had no sleep and would like to have another statement of the affair, with such additional details concerning the stature and weight of the conductor a* the clerk could alve. He ought to reduce the clerk's wage*, he said, and thought he would. Hut the clerk represented that such action would InJect another arithmetical proposlUon Into the question, and they would have to figure the reduction of salary into the net losa on the dollar. The cashier sighed and said that was so and perIKm' Tvnnlil bftfW l*?f It KO. But every little while during the day he would wander over to the clerk's desk, armed with a new sheet of figures, nnd ask some other questions and go away. 1?H>king gloomv. They have not yet settled the matter to their satisfaction, but It has been set aside for the time. The board of director.*. noting tho cashier'* distrait and ab???nt-ininded manner, and. fearing It would bo observed by the depositor*, and might cause a rush on th<* bank, insisted that he take a vacation for three months and give the matter of the bogus dollar ami ita profit and loss to the young clerk time to alnk into a sort of oblivion. WALES WON'T BE KIHO. So Propheal** Crawford's "Mr. Isaac*." Qfleen to Ovtllv* Wales. Marion Crawford'a "Mr. Isaacs" is a character quite as interesting in life as in fiction. His real name Is Alexander Jacobs, and he is a rich Jeweler In Sinda, India, and somewhat avaricious, by reputation at least, though his trial for mealing deposit money rrom tne .-Nizam of Hyderabad, five years ago, resulted In his acquittal. The diamond for which this deposit money was the first payment has been stolen fom the Nizam recently. Nobody knows how a paste diamond came to be in th* place of the magnificent "imperial" gem bought of Mr. Jacobs. IIr. Jacobs Is man of great smart neaa. He Is not only n clever merchnnt. but a prophet. So many of his predictions have com* true that many eminent people in India believe In his prophetic Rift. He has lately delivered himself of thr?-?? prophecies?(I) that Queen Victoria will live until 1911: (2) that the Prince of Wales never wVU be king, because ho will die In 1907; (.1) that In Augunt, 189X. Sir William Harcourt will become prime minister. 4 O'clock Wow 16 O'clock In Helglam.

Hepburn, a prominent London solicitor, writes the following to the Washington Pout: In the course of business with an Engllsh client, resident In your city, I dlscovered among ;?omt? old paper* a curious document, tvhlch was written In the year 1715, the period of the icreac Jacobite conspiracies. I am permitted to publish a portion of this paper, and my client denlres me to send it to your Journal. which I do. In the belief that you wJU find It sufficiently JnterenUng for Insertion. tTpon my rvturn to England I expect to have an opportunity to examine *ome similar documents by the same author and of learning something of his identity and history. I will be glad to ^nn iini uMth nnv nartlpulars worth the knowing that may com? Co my knowledge. At first flush th<* paper presented a rather formidable appearance. What I took be cipher wai presented to me In the following form: Ztc lbspm Itrfct ssnwksr.k rjrev nzrksdn. Tydm tlzr rfezdb rycbct trks ncrcpk nzlks rycmf Csnrf.

After applying the usual keys In vain It occured to me that the letters might be tran?posed. Acting upon this Idea. I soon had my puzzle in this form: Ctz mp.?bl tcfrtl gnskwnss veyr ndsgrtn.

In these days of phonography the translation Is quite easy, but at the time the dispatch was written It might well have served the purpose of a cipher message. It will be noticed that the letter "c" Is not used In the composition of words, but t<? separate some and to disguise others whose form appeared to be too tran*parent. The word "the" is omitted entirely. The letter "z" Is put to a somewhat plastic use, a* la "disguise" and "seclusion." I find here and there very minute dots which evidently served for vowel points; they do not vary In form, but somewhat In weight "Burnham" was a Jacobite nickname for St. John, it possibly arose from a very natural association of ideas, am Hazlett remarks. "Slnjun." as It Is pronounced. would readily suggest "singe 'urn." and *o "burn 'em." I find this old in!i'n<. iv Interest Inc from the startling fact that here we have phonography in practice nearly a century before Pitman's birth, anil in the vowel pointj referred to before the nucleus of his short hand system. Truly there is nothing new under the sun. After a careful examination of the remainder of these curlou* phonetic documents I hope to persuade my client to deposit them in some museum, where they will he preferred, as. to thp best of my knowledge, they are the earliest specimens of sound writing.

"Of oourse I know that I am poor," aid a very popular although an Impecunious society woman, relates the New York Tribune, "but, some way or other. I cannot feel poor." That is the reason you are such a success." commented her friend. "Mrs Multi-millions said the other day that you were the only woman she knew who dl?I not bore her about your troubles, ami that was the reason she liked you so much." Those who are well off. as a rule, make their straightened circumstances too obvious and people who have lo^t money retire from the world when there is really no reason to do so. They take a back seat, and of course are not urged to Come forward; but if they had remained in the front no one would have questioned their right to be there. It is not necessary to spend much or entertain in order to maintain a position once you have acquired it. AH you have to do is to be agreeable and not let society see that you are worried. Society is goodnatured if you do not exact sympathy and la disposed to be friendly to Its members who have lost their money if they are plucky and cheerful about it and continue to go about. Of course If people are morbid and avoid their former associate* the latter cannot be expected to hunt them up; but If they lose their friends it is. in nine cases out of ten. more the fault of the people themselves than of their former associates.
