Brother Composer's Joke Gave Verdi
Some Hou'8 of Uneasiness Until
It Was Explained.
Qlorzn, the composer, used to toll
tho following Btory:
"Onco Verdi and I had apartments
opposlto rack other In Milan. Tho
street was narrow. It waB warm, and
our windows were open. Verdi was
wr'tlng one of his operas, and after
vrltlnc one urta he eat down at tho
piano and played It. I decided to play
a joko on him, so I closed tho shut
ters and when ho got through I sat
down at my piano and played tho
same thing. Then I peeped through
tho blinds and saw Verdi hanging
half-way out of .hla window, looking
In all directions. I hoard no more
from his piano.
"That ovenlng, hb wo wero walking
together, ho waB much preoccupied,
and I asked him what was tho matter,
" 'Well, Gloria,' he repllod, 'I wroto I
a song this afternoon that I was post-1
Uvo was original, and yet aa soon aa
I played It Eomeono else In tho neigh
borhood played the same thing. It
worries mo to think that I should bo
Hoyo another's composition was my
own.'
"Then I told him tho truth, and ho
waa happy."
Housewifely Thought.

LIVELY ZOO IN THIS HOTEL
One Chlcaao Man In New York Caw
Strange Collection of Elephants,
Another Ostriches.
Ono of tho rooms In an uptown
hotel was transformed Into tho live

Tho principal performers were a hord
of elephants, who, strange as It may
soom, woro rubber boots.
Thoy wero taken upstairs by a Chi

a round of tho summor resorts along
the coast, and captured tho elophonts
at ono of tho late supper restaurants

nurses had all they could do to got
tho beasts out of the room. Tho doc

simians formed part of
this menagerie.

and tho manager Bays thero la no rea

son to bollovo tho lnoroascd demand
for soda water during tho heated
weather means that prohibition 1b gon
orally constitutional as yet. A ques
tion ho propounded was. Why does It
romaln for Chloagoans to discover
such unsuspectod denizens of New
York Jungles? Now York Times.
A Doubt of It
"Do you think thoro Is any unan
imity In that family?"
"I novor heard thero was, but there
might bo on tho mother's side."
Little Excitement, AlthoUQh All Knew
the Ship Was Injured, and1 Later
Deep Thankfulness for Preser
vation From Death.
I havo often wondered how people
would act, how I myself would feel,
In thb event of a disaster at sea. I
had tho opportunity of finding out, the
other night, when In tho darkest hour
Just before dawn, In a dense fog, tho
ship on which I bad sailed from South
ampton, tho Now York, was rammod
by tho Pretoria, 400 miles from New
York.
1 was awakened by the stopping of
our engines and tho violent churning
of tho screw aB tho ohlp backed wa
ter. Then, out of tho Impenetrable
darkless was heard tho hoarso shriek
of another foghorn than our own,
which, at Intervals of a minute, had
been bellowing for hours. I know that
another vessel waB approaching, and
overy mlnuto drawing nearer.
Then came a shock, sharp though
not, very violent, and I know wo had
been struck. Callors and stewards
ruBheil past to tako up their station at
tho botts, and two or thtco mlnutea
later tho huge butk of tho Pretoria,
towering abovo our craft, glided by so
near thnt I could touch hor with my
hand, while sho toro away part of our
bulwarks In passing.
Thon tho passengers began to pour
up from tho cablnB In scanty attire,
wary with life preservers buckled on.
Tl.oro wero no hysterics, and purprls
Inph little evident excitement, but all
ruletly awaited tho end which wo
h ught was near, until In a fow mln
i. es tho ofllcera reported that the holo
In our side was abovo tho water line.
It wns big enough, however, to admit
tfio or three trolley car3 abreast, and
n huge anchor of tho Protorla, weigh
in? five tons, was found Imbedded In
our bow, vhllo tho Iron plates of oUr
chip wore twisted up llko shavings.
Kor nearly twenty-four hours moro
tho fog continued with brief Intermis
rlon, and this evidently got on tho
ii' rvoa of tho passengers oven moro,
than the shock of tho first moment)
of the collision. Some trlod to throw,
off their nervousness by Blnglng rag
timo tunes, othor3 by playing cards,
and not a few, I am glad to say, by
looking to n higher power, and remem
bering that tho father In Heaven ruled'
tho waves.
It wub a time whon many hearts
were tender, and any appeal to their
iM'atltudo and reverence went homo.
Bunday morning, the next day after
tho accident, jiut before reaching port,
I asked permission of tho purser to
hold a thanksgiving service which
Vna rendily granted. I nover know an
Audience to bo moro responsive. There
wero fow dry eyes In tho crowded
mu'lo room ob wo voiced our gratitude
In Fon$ and prayer and brief words of
thanksgiving. Toara streamed down
the faco3 of many strong men, and the
liipressho sorvico will never be for
rotten by any who attended. Chris

Shrewd Citizenship.
"Whnt'a tho wrangle about In Plunk

apply tho proceeds to publlo works of
all kinds."
