WMefc XVmm BhotT There was a Jere Clemens who was a United States senator and in his day enjoyed the usual senatorial famea fame which perishes whether it spring from four years' service or forty. Aft er Jere Clemens' fame as a senator passed away he was still remembered for many years on account of another service which he performed. He shot old John Brown's Governor Wise in the hind leg la a duel. However, am not very clear about this It may be that Governor Wise shot him in the hind leg. However, I don't think it is Important. I think that the only thing that is really important is that one of them got shot in the bind leg. It would have been better and nobler and more historical and satisfactory if both of them had got shot in the hind leg. But it Is of no use for me to try to recol lect history.

The Great Composer*. At what age did the great composers write their masteipieces? This ques tion is answered in the London Musical Times. The following table gives the composer's name, his recognized mas terpiece, the age at which It was com posed and the composer's age at death* Bach Mass In moll 48 65 Handel Messiah 56 74 Haydn Creation 65...77 Mozart Don Giovanni 31 .35 Beethoven C-moll Symphony 35-38 ..56 Weber Prieschutz .,30-33.39 Schubert. C-dur Symphony... 31...31 Mendelssohn. Ellas 87 ..39 Schumann Piano concert 31-35...49 "Wagner Meistersinger 49-54...69 Brahms Requiem 82-35...63 This goes to show that composers be tween thirty and forty created the greatest masterpieces. Yet the compos ers above forty should not despair, see ing that Bach composed his mass iu moll at the age of forty-eight, Wag ner his "Meisterslnger" when fifty. Handel his "Messiah" when fifty-six and Haydn his "Creation" when sixty five years of age. A Turkish Joke, A certain sultan of Turkey was very fond of gossip and sent for the bank er, Abraham Beg, to learn the small talk of Pera and Stamboul. As Abra ham was being conducted to the sul tan's residence by the master of the horse that functionary begged him, should the sultan question him on the subject, to say that the funds were at 30, his majesty having been so In formed by his ministers. Poor Abraham consented. He had not been long with Abdul Aziz when he was questioned as to the funds and replied as he had promised. To the horror of the banker, the sul tan expressed himself delighted and* handed Abraham a large bundle of bonds to sell for bim. Abraham sold at 12 and paid Abdul Aziz 80. The sultan had originated that little "joke." Courts of Love. "Courts of love" were established in the middle ages, when chivalry was at its height and love the serious occupa tion of life among the higher class of society.
