wants to see the professor who has that diMti.e

The ferry company never boasted an orches
tral attraction like the big steamer lines up
north, but the partienlar float known as the
City of Washington has bad a public musician
on board every trip for the last three months.
He claims the medal among organists for hav
ing traveled an aggregate of 10.500 mile since
the let of last leptembag in turning the crank
of his music box to the retrievement of
what was ones a very generous fortune. His
instrument is only an molian, and "Doulanger's
March" and "Auld Lang Syne" are the princi
pal parts of the repertoire, but the patriarchal
appearanee of the old man and the William
Cullen Bryant locks have called out many a
nickel or dime, to say nothing of quarters and
half dollars.from the plethoric purses of passen
gers, who may not have been particularly
struek with the symphony, but had their sym
pathies aroused nevertheless. It isn't very
classical, this combination of a tenor voice,
whose sweetness has long been turned by
age, and the grist of an every-day music box.
Nor is the old professor a foreign nobleman in
disguise, in spite of more than half-way shabby
gentility. That face looks more like one to
conceal a sIdry, although it might take you
back some years, rbea the man who now ren
ders his musical program for voluntary con
tributione could have his drawn check hen
ored for thousands and count by the hundred
I the acres which constituted his southern
plantation.
TIE SAYS OLD 5TO3R.
He has a story-has this patriarchal organist
-and it is the same old story of man's inhu
inanity to his fellow and the proverbial gulli
bility of the latter. Prof. M. A. Stevensoe is,
of course, only his nom de plume, or rather
appellation salon de terry bost, but his real
name is not apropod. and be never intrudes his
recital before it is asked. But ask him bow an
apparently redned and cultured mar, especially
one at has age, caine to be an itinerant musician,
and his preface, "It was a matter of neeessity
on account of a swindling western boom corn
paty and a false friend," will tell the tale in a
nutshell.
Twenty years ago the old professor would not
have dreamed of some day turning a music box,
when he left his native Fredericktown, ld., to
take up a large inheritance of two plantations
and appurtenances in middle Mississippi. The
efects of the war bad not been particularly felt
in that part of the river state, and it wasn't
many years afterward before the heavily
mortgaged properly had an incumbrance of
scarcely more than 43,001 against it in place of
the usurious and overburdening plaeters of the
previous decade in slave times. But quiet as
the locality was the voice of the western Im
provement boomer reached it and lurid cireu
iare explained the fortunes waiting to be picked
up for the searching at Findl, Ohio. The
subscription agent wasn't a bunco man, but he
did own a glib tongue, and before the planter
realized what be had 'lone the proeede of cer
tain loans negotiated on promissory notes bad
gene to swell the cofers of the improvement
corporation in exelange for a block of it. stock
and the company held a big second mortgage
on the plantations besides. The promised
extra large dividends did not materialias, and
gradnally one Mississippi planter came to be
lieve that he had been swindled.
aa eSoca wAs woasnLass.
Investigation proved his stock next to worth
less, in a companywhere the big speculators
held the preferred article of commercial value
and the smaller owners' certiflcats were worth
about as much as the .paper they were written
upon. The frat mortgages was a neighboring
planter. and his legal acumen and knowledge
of tricks of the disciplsa of Elacktone were
matters of note throughout the county. His
advice was worth asking anyway in the dilemma
at hand, and, like a Napoleon of Wall street.the
now professor of band-organ music was per
suaded to pay the improsement company back
in it. own coin. In plain words, the 3,000
mortgagee informed his neighbor elient that
the most practical scheme to save the latter's
property would be a foreclosure of the frst
mortgage and the customary sheriff's sale be
fure the second mortgage holders, in shape
of the western cerporation, became aware of
the process. The necessary papers were served,
and the holders of the. iower security being ab

deed in return for hi bid, amounting to the
face value of his personal claim, with intercet.
The nieu owner attempted 60o ousting proceed

should merely act as trustee of the prouerty.

return as soon as the claim of *$l,000 should be

FPor several years more no suspicion of fraud
entered the gullible old man's mind, but one
day he discovered a balance of 53,500 to his
credit in hank as the accumulation of eavlia
since his property passed into the trusteesa
kepn.Naturally the firs Impulse was to
make a settlement with the neighboring planter
and secure the return of his inheritance, but
the trustee coonly informed the beneficiary that
the trust was merely verbal and therefore aet
binding in law. He held the deeds to two plan
tations worth $0.000, although he paid but
53.300, end proposed to keep them in the bar
gain. Beside. he would attach the cash In hank
to reimsburse him for several year,' rental of
the disputed property, and the upsehot of It all
was that nothing Aaly stood between a ones

looking red, black and green speckles
on my fash for tonight," said the stoat lady
with the corusge bouquet of chrysanthemume
as she get out of her carriage on Connecticut
avenue and rushed into a etserer's ahep. "'Per
fectly harmless,' yos say? Well, may bee, but
I don't like 'em. They look poinoeas." And
with that she swept out.
"Would youlike toknow what those'speekles'
are made of?" asked the aterer of a writer for
Tan &raa who wae buying some little French
cakes. "Come with tme and I will show you."
Whereupon be led the way to the ba...ent.
There, in a room just below the sidewalk, stood
the chef at a large table surrouAled on all
sides by brightly shining copper vessels and by
shelves on which stood molds, little and big, of
tin and copper. Along one side of the room
ran an enormous range. The chef was quite an
imposing-locking person, in white apron and
cap.
"Poisonous, indeed!" he exclaimed indig
nantly. "What nonsense! However, I happen
to be making some little ashe of force neat
now and you can watch me if you choees."
Down from the shelf came the cunniageet
little molds imaginable in the shape of red
snappers. These were carefully buttered, and
then began their decoration. First a truge
was divided into very thin slices and cut Into
cubes by a tin machine. One of, thewe repre
sented the eye of each fish, while two more
adorned its tal. This done a diab was taken
from the open oven, with some red pieces from
the claws of a boiled lobster, which bad been
drying. These powdered and sprinkled iato
the molds gave the fishes a brilliant scarlet col
oring. Presently from the refrigerator room
was brought a great yellow bowl of fish force
meat. This had been chopped, flavored, mined
with cream sauce and put through a tine
colander, after which it had been put on the tee
until needed. A little of it was put on a plate
and with it was beaten eome bright green co
oring matter made by the chef from spineh.
This, reduced to the desired onatenor. was
put into a little white paper cerneim, with a
smal hole ma the end, theugh which it was
seqaed, so as to outline fins, tails., and heads.
This completed the fore meat wee tightly
packed into the molds and they were ready to
be heated and turned out, so that each guest at
the lunch for which they were destined might
be the happy poesemor of a 'beautiful red
snapper.
Little mold, represoting ducks were next
taken down from the shelves. These are quite
new, having been lately brought from Paris.
They were decorated and illed with pate de
foie gram. Duck force meat Is semetimee used
insteed. For another eutertainment little
heart-shaped meld. were filled with "brisotina"
of chicken. The mest of she latter useful farm
yard bird also played the principal part ip a
most elaborate dish known as "poule en tfm
le." which was destined for a large dinner
party. It was oval in shape and in two stories,
while on the top, resting in a nest of grass, eat
a chicken of force meat. On a table near by
were arranged some tomatoes all ready for the
dnal touches. They were filed with celery
mayonnaise, and each one rested en a lesf of
lettuce. Alongside were some ounning little
roses of celery waiting to be put on each to
mato. Two new dishes, the recipes and even
the ingredient, of which are kept a profound
secret, are called "eapuenee of groom" and
"zephyr de partridge.'
In the next room stacks of ice boxes and
mold. for ice cream were arranged, while in the
center was a huge freezer. At the marble table
stood a man beating cream, while all sorts of
goodies were stored in shelves at his side. Of
course all the fancy glacee nowadays are served
with sauces, and the making and flavoring of
these is quite an ar5 i itslf
The bakery,which opened fromn the ice cream
room, was large, but about a third of It was oc
cupied by a great brick oven. Under the win
dows ran a wide and long shelf, at which stood
one of the white-capped and aproned patry
cooks. He wasn nouring hot sugar airup over
wine cakes. This accomplished, he fetched
from the fire a decoction in which, to Judge by
the. smell, rum played a prominent part. At a
round, marble-topped table a you.ng man wan
beating with strong white hands a pastry, in
which butter, a lot of eggs, hot milk, sugar and
yeast were mixed with the flour. At the oven
door another baker-stood watching sofa, pate
mold. browning, and at a stand near by were
rowe of bright saucepan., each holding an icing
of.a different color, In browns there were choc
olate. maple sugar and carameL. White had
vanilla, cream colored bad lemon, green had
pistachio nut ad pink had several flavorings.
In the midst of thee etood a young maan care
fully putting on tiny amid moat elaborate cakes
their proper decorstions. All theee delicious
things were for Christmas feasting.
