Everybody wanted tosample the new de- coction 4t once, although ome of the con- vivialists remarked that he thought it very bad form to combino_champagno with any other liquor or wine. The majority, however, wanted the drink, and Krug, with his wel known gencrosity, went out to tho mixer of beverages and taught him the fine art of making the Ehlermann cocktail.

Ho belloves that Hamlet began by feigning madnoss and ended by being really insane.

Miss Jennie Ycamans, whose vloverness in the titlerole has excited no little comment, 1s at the head of the com- pany, and she will be greeted by many ad- mirers, The story of the play caun be profit- ably rocalled at this time.

When the rake learns of his coming he is in a dilemma. He has no wife, but he bribes the housemaid, Jane, to impersonate her. Jane has just married Willlam, the man servant, whom she persundes, for financial reasons, to consent to the decention. A baby 1s bor- rowed, and all manners of absurd devices are employed to deceive the confiding old trustee. ‘T'he fun is fast and furious through three acts, and fina'ly explanations are made and all are happy.

An Irlsh Bull, Immediately before the adjournment of the Fenian convention held in Phila- delphia in 1865, writes John F. Finerty in Donahoe's Magazine, a member pro- posed thaj the next convention should be held in some city, safterwards to be designated, on the first Tuesday in the ensuing September. Thereupon “Tom” Haire—a respect- able, clerical looking, solemn merchant from Quincy, IlL, who had not previously mado himself heard, arose, and, in & deep, important voice called 1 out: “Mr. President!” “The gentleman from Illinois," said O'Mahony in recognition. “I move, as an amendment to the gen- tleman’s motion,” continued *Tom,” in a tone that would have done honor to a veteran undertakor, ‘‘that the next con- vention be held on the first Tuesday in Soptember, except it shouid happen to fall on a Sunday! Bedlam is nowhere to the scene that ensued, and, to make matters worse, “Tom,” who was severely serious, would not recognize the blunder he had made for a long time. Finally he realized it and a look of supreme disgust came over his rubicund countenance. ‘Tl never come to one of these things again,” said he in quiot dudgeon. “It is no place for o business man. The cobbler should stick to his last and the grocery man to his weights and measures.” e The Rite of Sin, In some \mm of England a queer cus- tom is still in vogue, which is repeated whenever a death occurs. It is called the “bite of sin,” and whenever some one in a house dies a picce of bread is laid on the breast of the corpse, which some passor-by is persuaded to eat for a ‘(‘:’md sum of money. In this way it is lieved that the sins of the dead are transforred to the living, who in turn can shove them off, together with his own, by a similar ceremony when his life comes to an end. Onthe Sand- wich islands the widows have the names of their departed husbands tattooed on their tongues, but it is not known how often they turn over the sweet morsel of wifely devotion when thoy marry again, b Tmi n Dismonds. The material in which imitation dia- monds are produced is called strass, from the nawe of its inventor, a German jeweler, who flourished at the beginning of the present century. It is {n!rfeol.ly glass, colorless and transparent or rather erystal, of 1|'rcprmchnblc‘:)’purny, com| of rock crystal, or of white sand, mixed with oxide of lead, arseni- cal acids and other ingredients.

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: PANDERING «B) BAD TASTES Marked Oontrast Hetween Bastern and Western Newspapers, TONE OF THE LATTER DECIDEOLY BETTER Gleanings feom the Angast Magazines, Fm- braelng n Variety af Opinions, Reminis- conces and Descriptive Matter—A Litéfdby Foast, The character and contents of newspapers and tho men who make them is the subject of several Iustructive papers in the current Forum. The writers are practieal news- paper men, thoroughly couversant with newspaper life and conduct. Concerning the gossip and scandal which are conspicu- ous features of nowspapers, John Gilmer Speed says: “None of the papers were then (twelve yoars ago) considered to be over-nice in their scruples about sensations, crimes, scandals or gossip. But_ in all four of the papers under consideration there were only four and one-half columns of gos- sip, and one column of scandal, aguinst 11614 columns of gossip this yoar and seven and Talf columns of scanaal. The gossip this year usurps the place of the literary matter printed in 1881, and articles about crimes and criminals tako the places formerly oc- cupied by religious and scientific matter. Twelve years ago the people in the cast very Justly looked upon the papers in the more bustling western cities with somothing like surppisod horror. In those papers, and in the Chivago papers particularly, quantity was the first consideration and sensational- ism the next. Indeed, these scemed the only considerations. But in these rogarus there has been to groat a change in the New York papers in twelve years that they now far surpass the Chicago papers, whilo the Chicago papers-have distinctly improved in a better direction. articularly fn discuss. ing scandals and crimes based upon the brouking of the seventh commandment aro the Chicago newspupers now much more scrapulous than their New York contem- poraries. I have been told by Chicago news editors, and I have verified the statement, that lurd stories of crime and scandal sent from proofs of New York papers by tele- finph to Chicago almost invariably have to toned down before they are considered fit for publication in the western city."” Old Men 1 Journalism. The most pathetic figure In Journalism, writes J. W. Kellerin the Forum, is the man who has grown old iu its service. Through uo fault of his he finds himseif without a vo- cation when he most needs it. In any other business his oxperience would be of value, The accumulated knowledge of years would comm; price commensurate with its worth. Here it is valueless, because in the first ten years of his journalistic curcer he has mastered tte art of reporting, of copy- reading, of any routine departmental work, and experience shows that celerity decroases with ago after u corfain veriod of years has been reached. Jowrnalism is essentially o business for young meh. They rush into ic by hundreds, they remain in it by tens. Ninety per cent of the men who enter jour- nalism leave it before they become old. They remain in it only long enough to make it a stepping stone to something else less ex- acting, less limited 1 remuneration, loss insecure in employment. On the staff of the daily newspaper withwhich I am connected there is only one mau-over 30 yeurs of age, and the average of ‘the employes in the ea- itoral department is less thand5, A canvass of other metropolitan newspaper oftices will show but a slight varistion from these figures. There are more old men doing mes- rvice for telegraph companies than cting for the dadly newspapers. Pocullarities ot Audien, The maj of an audience everywhere 1 think, composed’of Avonien, whose opin- h and critfvism are the decisive dybiters of an actist's ability and. pépulurity.” Women are the artistlo levers of gudiguces, writos Georgo Riddle i1 Donalioe's. Men are the immovabls fulerums. Were it not for the enthusiasm of *vomen the American audience would be as dull as lead. The average American mun takes ne interest in art and is bored if he has to make a wmental effort be- youd the accumulation of cash, San Francisco's public is peculiar, It does not care what London. Paris of New York thinks. It has its own mind. It isa great first night city. It turns out en masse, for a premiere. No matter what the artist's reputation may be throughout the world, tho actor or musician must begin all over in San Francisco. A cordial reception is given tho artist on his entrance. Then the auaience leans back in itschairs and says, “*Now show us what you can do.”’ In ten minutes an ar- tist knows whether or not he is to be a suc- cess on the Pacific const. Success goes like an electric current through an audience, if iv goes at all. If not, the audience remains quiet und shuts off the batteries. There is absolutely no_ recovery from a tirst-night failure in San Fraucisco. The public is not merciless. It is indifferent. 1f an artist is a success in San Francisco he is a great suc- cess, and there is magic 1 an enthusiastic San Francisco audien There is no other comparable to it. 1t seems to anticipate the artist's points. 1t uplifts him and makes him do his best. In a word, a San Francisco audieuce is irresistible. All through Cali- one finds the same kind of public as rancisco. Audiences in New Eugland towns are like peas. ‘They have the same outwurd appear. ance and yary only in size. They take their amusements as they live—seriously. A New England audieuce is like a congreration, deeply attentive and religiously inclined. 1f a fow giddy persons laugh aloud or applaud enthusinstically they are stared at and frowned down, Outside people who have seen turbulent pol! | meetings in New England, when speakers have been greeted with miugled cheers and hisses, would bo amazed at the stolid aspect of most New England audiences in places of amusement. New Englanders rise to great occasions and opportunities, as all the world knows, but so far as expressing outward manifesta- tions of artistic pleusure and satizfaetion is concernod, they arve tadpoles. Most of the audiences of Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire look weary and tired, as though they hind dono a hard ‘duy's work on three meals of pie. 1haveoften thought a regi- wee of roast beef or deviled food would serve to improve some of the sluggish and unresponsive audiences of New England.

'] am the culiph of the lord; I am the captain and cominander of the faithful, the chosen oue of the prophet; 1 am the king of kings: 1am a prince iu paradise; ihen obey me without & murmur, as my camels do.' “This 1s the magunincent pretension of the sultan of Morocco, and it is generally al lowed, says Stophea Bousul in the Centary SUNDAY, AUGUST 86 1893-SIXTEEN PAGES. 1t is refreshing to find a country whore not only has the divine right never been con- tostod, but where as yot it has not even been questioned. Now and again & peotendor to the throne has turned up. and the annals of Moroceo are red with stories of eivil wars But the pretender has nover boen a revoln tionist; he has always basod his contention upon having a more divine right, and the al- leged vossession of & more generous and di- rect flow of blood of the prophet in his veins. The loyalty of the people toward the monarch partakes of the natureof adorn- tion. When the pattle is fought and won, and the soldiers who have fallen sor wounded are brought off the fleld and ‘mwml in a_eircle around the white pavilion in which the mysterions monareh lives, as un- approachable and invisible in his camp as in his court, then, it is said, the dread sultan walks up and down among them, with silent pity upon vheir agony ; an the poor ignorant kabyles of tho vai and the nomad horsemen from the desert, cry out intil their cries give place to tho ttle of death: “Allah ibark amer Seedna' od prolong the days of our Lord this, too, is the cry of the mnalefactor as he Roes toward death or mutilation, and these are the words of the disgraced vizr who, when for purposes of political necessity he must disappear or bo effaced, takes the cup of poisoned tea from tho hands of his gra- cious sultan. The mantle of the prophet of Medina that he wears must ind be broad and ample, for it is callod upon to cover » multitude of sins—that is, viewed from our standpoint— but the Moors believe that, lri’ as he may, the suitan can do no wrong. He is liko the saint I saw in Tangier who spends his entive time in drinking gin and whisky. Ono might vhink that this saint was drinking an undue quantity of strong waters, but such is not the case; at least it has never appeared to the Moors in this light, for he uch a holy man. they say, that the moment the strong waters come in contact with his person, thoy lose all their fiery qualitios, and become in- nocent mare's milk. Baltimore, the Monumental City. 1f I were to ask a bright boy or girl, fresh from the school-book study of eraphy. to tell me what Baltimoro is famous for, I should expect this answer: “Baltimore is known as the Monumental Olty.” So it is, but that is only one distinctio Neverthe- less we may begin our survey of the city with this plirase in mind, and see to what it leads us, says a writer in St. Nicholas. Baltimoro has long been called the Mouu- mental City. Ido not know who first em- Ployed the term, nor when 1t camo into use, but as far back as 1702 there was an obelisk on the outskirts of the town, commemorating Christopher Columbus. Tt was placed in an obscure position on private property, and by and by its purpose was forgotten, so that it came to bo regarded as a monument erected by the owner of the property to the memory of his favorito horse. lla-'ently its history has been published, and it ranks today us first in time, though not in art, among the American memorials of the Genoese naviga- tor. There aro higher claims to the ‘“monu- mental” epithet. In the very hourt of the city, on an emence perhaps 100 feet above the sea level, there stands a noble marble column, Frnhu\)ly suggosted by the well known pillars of Trajan and Marcus Aurelius in Rome, though not copied from either of them. It rises to a height of 160 fent, and is surmounted by a colossal statue of George Washington, designed by Causict Within the densely settled part of the city this is 2 most picturesque point. T don’t want to be out of sight of the monument,” a little boy was heard to cry. as his nurse proposed to whool his baby “carriage somewhat farther than usual from the corner of Mount Vernon Place and Washington Place, where this column stands. “Idon’t want to be out of sight of the monument” is the natural im pulse of the trus Baltimorean. Let him travel as widely ns he will, he returns to the Washiogton monument and all that sur- rounds it, with admiration and affection; and well he may, for such a column, in such a position, and surrounded by such dwelling houses, churches, libraries and works of art, would be an ornament to Berhn or to Paris. Much nearer the water, close by the new postoftice, stands a trophy called the Battle monument, becauss it commemorstes the victory at North Peint, where the British were repulsed on the 12th- of September, 1814. It was by these structuwes that Baiti- more gained «its name of “tho Monumental City” long before Charlestown, Mass., saw the obelisk completed upon Bunker's Hill; long bofore Crawford's impressive group was placed in the state house grounds of Rich- mond, Via. In recent years other monuments in memory of individuals bogin to appear. A shaft in memory of Colonel Armistead, the commander of Fort McHenryduring its bom- bardment, stands in the southern part of the city. The Italians have erected in the park a statue of Columbus, and a generous citizen of Scotch descent is soon to place there a statue of William Wallace. The bronze memorials of Taney and Peabody will soon be spoken of. z Emcraon Huating Deer, Tn the August Century W. J. Stiilman writes of “The Philosophers’ Camp," gathering of congonial spirits in the Adiron- dacks in 1858, among whom were £mcrson . Lowell, Agassiz. Judge Hoar, Amos Binney and Mr. Stillman. The writer thus de- scribes Emerson’s attempts at deer slaying: “It was intevesting to see how Emerson grew into camp life. As at first he had re- fused to carry a rifle, and decided to take one only for uniformity, so in the carly days of our forest residence he declined to takn any part in the hunting or fishing; but wo had not been long in the camp before he caught the temper of the ocea gan to desire to kill his deer. him in the drives in which he took pari, the deer always coming mto some other wi and we decided to try night huntin o, stealing ™ to the deer as they browso in the pads along the shallow wator, carrying in the bow of the boat a light which blinds the animal, the lantern throwing all its light forward and the hunter sitting invisible in the shadow. We took the best guide at the paddie, Emorson taking the firing seat be- hind the lamp, and I in the middle with my rifle, ready in case he missed his shot. “There is something ‘weird in silently glid- ing along, » spectral diorama of irrecogniza - ble landscape, with rocks and trees slipping by like phantasms; for the motion of the boatis mot distinguishable, and the ouly sound is the occasional grating of the rushes on the bottom of the boat. It is, in fact, the most exciting form of deer hunting for cer- tain temperaments and the poet was strongly impressed. The practiced ear of the guide soon caught the sound of the foot- fall of a deer making his way down to the shore, and he turned the glare of the lamp on the beach, moving directly on him till ho was within twenty yards. The signal to fire was given and repeated, but Emerson could distinguish nothing. ‘Shoot!' finally whis- pered the guide in the faintest breath. ‘Shoot!' I repeated nearer. But the decr was invisible to him and we drifted to s boat's length from him before the animal took fright, and bolted for the woods, undlis- turbed by u has! hot | sent after him, and we beard his triumpbant whistle and gallop dying away in the forest depths. Emerson wasstupetied. We rounded the next pont and found a deer already on the feeding ground, 10 vepeat the experience. The deer 81000 broadside to him, in full v in the shallow water, but straining his vision to the utmest he conld distinguish nothing like a aeer, ana when we had got s0 near that the same result was imminent I firod and the buck fell dead. ‘Well,’ said Emerson, ‘if that was a deer 1 shall fire atthe first square thing I s80;' but we saw uo more that nigat. “Each disappointment, however, plunged him more deeply iuto the excitement of the chase, and he was most anxious o kill his deer before he went home, unable to resist the contagion of the passion forpit. He sald to me one day, ‘1 must kill a deer before we go home, even' if the guide has to hold him by the tail.’ *At that season of the year,whenithe deer ave in their short coat, the body sinks at once if shot in the deep water; and on over- takiug the quarry in the lake. if the deer- slayer wvas not sure of his shot, the guide used to run the boat alongside of it, and catch it by the tail, when the shot became sure one. As we hunted only when we needed the meat, we aid not risk the loss of the deer, and when a poor shot held the zun the quarry was caught by the tail and killed io this unsportsmaniike way. That survival of the earliest pession of the primitive man, the passion of the chase, overcame even the philosophic mind of Emerson, once exposed 10 the original influences, and he recognized bis anvestral benl. Few of us who live an active lire fail o be attracted by this first of all occupations of the yet uncivilized man.

There are many misconcoptions about aluminium thatare widespreaa and which it scems difficult to correct in the public mind. Alumimum is not, section for sec- tion, a very strong metal. It is only one- half asstrong as wrought iron. It hasa very low elastic limit. It isnot rigid, but bends under a transverse strain rapidly. Itis in its alloys that its utility commences to appear. With 8 to 12 per cent of copper, or aluminium bronze, we have one of tho most dense, finest grained and strongest i metals known. Ono of tho silver mining companics of Montana has made a most reasonable propo- sition to its men. It is that their daily wages shall be regulated by the market price of silver bullion in gold. Thus if bar over 80 cents an ounce they are to a day;if it'is between 75 and $0 cents, §3 por day; i€ it is between 65 and cents, $2.75 a day; and if it falls below cents, then only 8 por day. This s an ap- plication to silver mining of the shding scala plan which has been adopted by somie iron and steel manufacturors, and can be carried out with great ease.

The two divisions that attended wore composed of actives and boars. Both returned home from the contest covered with glory and honored with troph. ““The Omaha ‘accive: coived first class prize in the third group. ‘‘While the first dispatches received from Milwaukee indicatea that Fremont, Neb., had excelled Omaha's toam, in the list that in is mentioned as having received tho thirty-first prize, ““The ‘bear’ diviston of Omaha was only excelled by thoso from much larger citics like St. Louis and Chicago, obtaining fifth prize.

Not succeeding in this he spied a large piece ofjee on the sidewalk, but his physical abitity was insufficient to carry it home to his lodging just at that time. A sudden thought struck him. Why not set Hre to it and molt a part of it? Suiting the action to a loud expressed dotermination, ho gathered some paper, piled it around tho ice, applied a mateh and soon had the pleasuro of secing the flames leap skyward. But his joy was of short d ion, as a stalwart Milwaukeo policeman appearcd on the scone and quickly extinguished the biaze. “Ouly tho turner badge, implying fmmu- nity from arrest. saved our fellow eltizen from secing the 1nside of a Milwaukee dun- geon.
