Tired of waiting 8% years, Tessen simply packed his earthly. helongings, consisting of an old, dirty sofa that served him as a bed, looking pair of extra trousers, and a dilapidated stove, on a borrowed hand cart and wheeled t to ihe main entrance of the Finance Ministry. Two adorned the vehicl of the Government Slowly do the Mills of the nance Ministry grind.” When a crowd assembled, he told of his efforts to get his taxi back ‘and of his present sad olight. Thereupon the doors of the Ministry were opened, and Tessen was asked to come in.

X . carefal ‘melfin;—uavm as if you came | BERLIN, Jan. 17—Berlin bache- lors with a penchant for caqoking and housekeeping are elated ove: the initiative shown by a Munich gonstruction company in erecting the first apartment house for bachelors. Heretofore the unmarried male of moderate means was practical | ly doomed to live in a boarding house, to eat the stereotyped meals prepared by the landlady, to accept the uninteresting, im- personal furniture that character. izes the average “pension.” The Munich innovation gives the bachelor a chance to rent a single room or two rooms unfur- nished and to equip them in an individual manner. Best of all, he can dabble in the art of cooking. On each floor there is a Kkitchen equipped with a number of individual two-flame gas ranges and with a large table in the middle, Each bachelor can cook according to his own taste, and by swapping recipes with his neighbors increase his culinary repertoire. The Munich experiment is meet- {ing with such success that other cities are expected to follow suit shortly. Maiden ladies, too, are beginning to clamor for similar accommodations. -, T. C. Hartsock, formerly con- nected with the Alaska Junean mines, left today for Seattle on the Princess Mary. He is acconw panied by his wife and their tw) children. Mrs. L. C.

LONDON, England, Jan. 17— Protessor Willibaid Richter is said to have the best musical memory in England. He has memorized 2,000 classical compositions. When 8 years old, Professor Richter gave his first piano re- cital. Lizzat, the famous composer, then patted him on the head and made him his pupil. Professor Richter came to Eng- land in 1881, and was music mas- ter at Uppingham School untl 1887. He is the father of Miss ’Llllun Rushworth, the singer. | The professor says that no great composer will arise in the present generation. “There is too much noise,” he said, “too much hurry-scurry. A genius must de- |'velop his gifts in quiet and sol- tude. Beethoven was lucky pe- cause he became deaf. 'His best work was done while he was idea!." Instant relief — mo waiting.
