THE DBCAYBD MUSIC TEACHER ’fZ\* ; .v> Mm Bh tto Bmd Taken On* of Her > Month. The ordinary parent or guardian of a girl with a "turn for munlc" will very probably make hla choice of a teacher > from those to whom he listens with the greatest pleasure, forgetting that execu tive skill and the gift of Imparting knowledge are more often found sepa rate than together, says the National Review. The partially successful nrtlst, then, Is wont to fall back upon such teaching as ho can get If he wants to make a livelihood out of his profession, and so enormous Is the number of those | V who wish to take music lessons, If not to “go In for" music thoroughly, that if the moderately efficient teachers have hitherto had small reason to despair of getting profitable pupils. These worthy rf- people, however, will before long be Binging a very different song; In faot, something like a repetition of the dirge performed by the respectable "gentle women" of the last generation, who, after taking to teaching music for a living on the strength of a dozen le# sons taken when they were young and comfortably off, found their circle of pu pils diminishing as the taste for music widened and deepened. For such as these the Increase In the number and the rise In the efficiency of the regular schools of music has been their doom, for not merely in London, where the de cayed lady teacher never flourished, but In every country town the standard of taste has left them far behind, and nearly all such centers of their employ ment are now “worked” either by actu al representatives of the great educa tional Institutions of London, or their Sy places are filled by younger artists, ed ucated at such places as the Royal Academy of Music or the Royal Col lege of Music, the principle of whose Joint organisation In the matter of lo cal examinations and the like, has been doing a most Important work all over ‘ England during the short time of Its existence. That inefficient teachers of art should have the bread taken out of their mouths is not a legitimate subject for regret, though hard cases could no doubt be cited. Just as they can against such a work as that done by the organ* lsatlon of charity. te- 1 »*■ UNIVERSITY SETTLEMENTS, work Cobh Hunt Mum Ai;thla| KIm to IoItIbi tin Froblom. In a recent sermon Dr. Farkhurat proposed that rich women should have the names of poor women on their call ing lists, and should formulate a sys tem by which they could convey to their leas fortunate slaters the methods that hold In every well-regulated home and are known only to the careful and thrifty housewife. The Idea Is. In short, the same that Is In vogue at the college settlements, where higher Intelligence la valuable In masking superiority and assisting the well-bred to live down to the level of their neighbors, equally as they are able to lift the unintelligent to their level. The work at the university settlement comes more nearly striking the bull’s eye of the social problem than any other branch of philanthropy. Perhaps no work In the whole garment of charity comes so nearly being a la bor of love as the college settlement work. The college graduate who Is eligible to the sacred charge of residing among the poor for the purpose laid out—I. e., that of Improving their con dition through object lessons and dally contaot and personal sympathy—must have, In addition to a superior Intelli gence, not only a rare philosophy, but also a graoe of spirit that Is of divine origin. I should feel sorry to see the society women make an attempt to fur ther this work by the feeble imitation of spirit which the organised charity worker would bring Into It. Society li a work In Itself, and the woman whc meets Its demands la all unfitted tc benefit the poor by her personal con tact. The society woman Is sweetly satisfied with stereoscoplo views of pov erty, as exhibited to the board of man agers of the usual popular charity Women play at precedence in charity work, the same as they do In rugs and furniture and pictures and pedigree Visitation committees to teach the poor would be another travesty on charity and heaven forbid Itt EVOLUTION EVEN HERB. Iks Dog's Bask Baa Become More Ex pressive as His Culture Advances. The most curious Imitation which we End In dogs Is as to the measure of expression to which they have attained. Among the savage forefathers of the modern dog the characteristic of all their utterance was, to a great extent, involuntary, and once begun the out cry was continued In a mechanical man ner. The effect of advancing culture on the dog, however, has been gradually to decrease this ancient undifferentiated mode of expression by howling and yelp ing, and to replace It by the much more speech-like bark, says a writer In Sc rib Mrs Magazine. There la some doubt whether doge possessed by savages have the power of uttering the sharp, specialised note which Is so character istic of the civilized form of their spe cies. It Is clear, however, that If they have the power of thus expressing themselves they use It but rarely. On the other hand, our high-bred dogs have »'■' to a great extent lost the power to ex press themselves In the ancient way. ;',i Many of our breeds appear to have be come Incapable of ululating. There Is no doubt but the change in the mode ol expression greatly Increases the capa bility of our dogs to set forth their y States of grind. If we catch a high-bred dog—one with a wide range of sensibili ty., ties, which we may find in breeds whtcb H have long been closely associated with man—we may readily note five or six f V varieties of sound In the bark, each of ijsf. which Is clearly related to a certain state of mind. That of welcome, of fear, 1) of rage, of doubt and of pure fun are ■■fV almost always perfectly distinct to the educated ear, and this although the ob V’'- server may not be acquainted with the creature. If he knows him well he may be able to distinguish various other in tonations—those which express Impa tience, and even an element of sorrow, This last note verges toward a howl. *»•’ _________ Basalts Not Baeoauagiag.

There Is a bell now hanging over a private Rchonlhouse of a Mormon prophet In Salt Lake City which has a curious and somewhat amusing history. It was the first church bell that ever rang out over the plains of Iowa, hav ing been erected In the tower of the First Presbyterian church of Iowa City. A few years after Its Installation trou ble arose between the pastor and the people over the question of salary, which resulted In the former's making in attempt to capture and carry away the bell to “square accounts." The good man had gone so far as to secure a hol der and ascend to the roof of the church, when the church oftlclals got wind of the affair and rushed to the rescue of their property. They permit ted the bell to be lowered to the ground, but then seized upon It, loaded It In a wagon and drove away. The ladder wns also simultaneously removed, leaving the enraged parson wildly gesticulating from his pulpit In the tower. This ex citing event In the early days of Iowa City was promptly embalmed in verse by a local poet. The subsequent history of this same bell has a touch of romance about It. The "pillars” of the church who took away the prize In the wagon serried It, as'afterward appeared, to a •Iver near at hand and burled It in th^ channel. As It happened, one of the citi zens concerned In the business after Ward developed a sympathy with the Mormons. He Imparted Information sonceinlng the bell to another of like lympsthles, and through them Its re noval was effected. It was conveyed se sretly to the vicinity of Bloomington— now Muscatine—on the banks of the Mississippi river, and there deposited In he channel of a stream known as Dev i's creek. Thence it was carried to a lolnt near Montrose, 111., where It re mained for some years burled In the land. It was then exhumed and carried by some Mormons to Kanesvllle, In the neighborhood of Council Bluffs, from which point It was conveyed by them on their journey across the plains to Its oresent resting place. It was not until *wenty years after that the original pos sessors of the bell found out where It had gone. Upon the completion of the Pacific railway some parties from Iowa City, on their journey acrosB the conti nent, stopped off at Salt Lake City. There they discovered an old bell sur mounting a private schoolhouse, and upon Its margin the familiar words: ‘First Presbyterian church of Iowa City, 1816." Notice of the fact was oromptly communicated to the officers 3f the Iowa City church. Correspond ence was opened with the Mormon au thorities, but so high was the value placed upon It as a spoil taken from the gentiles, that, strangely enough. It was decided to let the old bell remain a voiceless trophy In the far-off land of 'ts captivity. TORTURED BY THE SIOUX. 1 Seout Tells How He Wes Initiated Iuto Sitting Bull’s Tribe. Frank Orouard, the Indian scout, who Is now living in St. Joseph, Mo., has recovered from the surgical opera tion In which an arrow head was re moved from his groin after having been mbedded there for nearly a dozen years. He was captured, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, by Sitting Bull ind a small band of followers when 19 years old, and remained with the In dians during the next six years, a great er portion of the time In the camp of Sitting Bull, through whose Influence he was saved from torture and death. ‘From the time of my capture and up to 1872,” he said the other day, "I was not required to undergo any of the self nfllcted tortures of the Sioux, but after ( became one of them, to all Intents and purposes, I knew what to expect. While we were camped where Glendive, Mont., now stands, the whole tribe gathered one day about and I was Informed that I was to be put to the test. All the In dians gathered around, taking positions where they could watch my face. Sit ting Bull, No Neck, Gall, Four Horns, Little Asstnlbolne and other head men of the tribe sat near me smoking their pipes. Four warriors squatted on each side of me and with needles raised up the flesh between the shoulder and the elbow on each arm and cut out pieces the size of a pea, taking 480 pieces out of'each arm. The skin and flesh were taken off In live rows on each arm. It was not painful at first, but before they were through there was a stream of agony pouring .from my arms to my heart that was almost unbearable. I did not open my lips or make a sound while they were torturing me, although the operation lasted four hours. The next time I was tortured all my eyebrows and eyelashes were pulled out. After that I went through the tortures as sto ically as the Indians themselves, even Including the tortures of the sun dance, where horsehair ropes were tied In the muscles of the breast and back and torn out by sheer force." Secrets of The'.r Lives. Every man’s life, no matter how hum ble, would furnish an Interesting book If cleverly written. You can’t always tell by a glance at a man what his past has been. There is a humble carpenter In town who was the prize orator at an eastern college, says the Atchison Olobe. Not far from the home of the writer of this there lives an ugly, de crepit old woman who was considered In her youth the handsomest girl in Kentucky. Poems were written about her, men went crazy over her and duels were fought by jealous admirers. Yet phe married a worthless man who got drunk and abused her. The Intensely religious life followed by another man In town Is the result of remorse over having caused the death of a comrade a great many years ago. A woman who was once presented at court In England Is not admitted to the best society In Atchison. A highly respectable citizen sends tl.COO a year away to the con science fund at Washington. Young people are Interesting for what they are, but the old folks are more interesting for what they have been, If they could be Induced to tell the story. Boaebtuh Over a Thousand Years Old. The famous rose bush of Hllcleshelm, on the River Innerste in Germany, is said to be over 1,000 years of age. The great King Charles Is said to have planted this rose bush in the year 800 A. D.. About 100 years ago this rose bush died down to the ground, but It has since grown from the same root to a height of thirty feet I MONTE CARLO'S PATRONS. -:—,— The Ladies Are the Moat 1'rofltable Cas tomera at Gaming. The English, the Americans and the French are probably the most remu nerative patrons of Monte Carlo, and It Is to Switzerland and not to the frontier of Italy that the vast majority of pleas ure-seekers repair In summer, says the London Telegraph. Again, at the very period when the Casino people wish to allure English visitors to the Riviera the London season Is nt Its height and the parliamentary session has as yet shown no sign of waning. The Atlantic steamships are bringing to Europe every week shoals of American tourists, but our transatlantic visitors usually pass the summer In London or Paris, or at English or French watering places, and await cooler weather before they Jour ney down south. Another suggestion made to the perplexed administration Is that a club for the use of gentlemen visitors should be established In con nection with the Casino, It being pro posed to utilize for the purpose the premises of the Hotel Monte Carlo, but It Is difficult to see that the financial prosperity of the Casino company would be Increased by supplementing the ex isting trlpot with a club. Visitors who really belong to cosmopolitan clubland can easily become members of the Cer cle de la Mediterranee at Nice, and after all, It Is not the serious players, the scientific operators at rouge et nolr, who despise the merry but frivolous game of roulette, that are the most lu crative customers at the Casino. At trente-et-quarante It Is really possible to win very large sums of money, not. Indeed, to break the bank—since Napo leon's dictum of the big battalions eventually winning still holds and al ways will hold good—but enough to cause the administration to close a par ticular table for a few hours. At rou lette, however, for the winner of any considerable amount there are possibly 100 who, sooner or later, will be utterly and hopelessly decaves, or "cleaned out." Moreover, in modern times It has been the lady punters who. In the aggre gate, bring the greatest amount of grist to the mill of the Casino company. It is not that the ladles often go to the maximum of stakes *.o be realized—they are In general too timorous for that— but they play recklessly and they con tinue to play until they have lost their last 5-franc piece on the tapis vert, and a club from which Indies were excluded would be bereft of the contributions of the sex who are, as gamesters, not less adventurous and perhaps a little more incorrigible than men. BOGUS BEER AND SMOKE. A Worldly Criticism of Two Great Re formatory Agtucles of the Age. It Is said that the non-alcoholic imi tation of beer which Bishop Fallows Is selling In his Chicago chiych saloon looks like beer, tastes like beer, foams like beer, and has so many of the other qualities of beer that It Is calculated to deceive Hans Breltman himself. This being the case, Is it moral? When Mulberry Sellers strove to produce the sensation of warmth and cheerfulness by putting a lighted candle In the stove was he truthful and heroic or menda cious and cowardly? The question is not a light one. It goes deep. In addi tion to Bishop Fallows’ imitation beer we have thrust upon as an alleged agency of reform a patent pipe which can be loaded with tobacco and smoked In the ordinary way, except that the smoker, who seems to be drawing deep draughts of consolation and philosophy from It, Is not getting a single whiff of the reality. He is merely deceiving himself with a delusive dream of com fort. Is this reform? If It Is there is reason for believing that hades will be the most thoroughly reformed place In the universe, for there, according to the version of a sacred poet whose scriptures have the authority of ven erable antiquity, men as shadows will Indulge the shadows of their unmas tered habits, drinking church reform beer and smoking patent reform pipes forever and ever without the possibil ity either of satisfaction or satiety. And after having tried this for only a short time one of the greatest dignita ries of the place declared that he would rather be a tramp or a Chicago brokei on earth than the most respected and honored potentate In all sheol. The mocking reality of such pinchbeck lmi tatlons of alluring vice as the patent pipe has semething Infernal about it. Homer was not mistaken on that point. There can be no virtue In pretending to be delightfully vicious. The way to reform is to reform. There is no other way. A PECULIAR RUNAWAY. Triad to Swim the Monongahela Hitched to t Sleigh. It was the experience of only a horse but It was such as to raise the hair ol all who witnessed It, says the McKees port Times. The animal belonged tc Jacob Keu or Market street and, aftet running off and swimming half way across the river. It was returned to its owner uninjured. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Kell left his home In this city in a sleigh and went to the residence of John Sinn In Lincoln township. He tied his horse in a large coal shed near the house. Shortly afterward Mr. Slnn'f hired man drove up with a load of coal and, not knowing of the presence of the animal on the Inside, commenced pitch ing the coal through a window In the shed. Mr. Kell’s horse frightened, broke ) loose and started for home. Up hil) ; and down hill it dashed at a reckless pace, frightening numerous pedestrians along the way. The horse Anally reached the Monongahela river and, nothing daunted, started in to swim to the other side, dragging the sleigh wltl lt. The river was full of ice, but the animal swam out into the current and had succeeded in getting about half waj across, when it became chilled by the Icy water and turned back. It reaches the shore in safety and was caught anc returned to its owner. A peculiar fea ture of the runaway 'was that the sleigh and harness were not damages' to any great extent and the horse es caped injury, although exhausted bj 1 Us wild and furious chase. One Hundred Years of Lawsuits. The Arst real estate entry of record In Kanawha county, West Virginia, was made Jan. 2, 1795, and is of 150,000 acres of land to Phlneas Taylor of Waterbury Conn., who was the grandfather of Phlneas T.

A new count in the indictment against women in the matter of her craving for plumage ornamentation is found in the way in which it is said the needs of her dressing table are supplied. An English journal warns the London ladies that their powder puffs, those airy necessities of the toilet, are heavy with the blood of slaughtered innocents. it is stated that as many as 20,000 young swans—cygnets, as they, are sailed—are killed every year to supply the dainty puff, to say nothing of innumerable young birds of the eider duck and wild goose variety. The bulk of these are imported—the swan and geese from the islands of the Baltic and from Norway and Sweden, and the eiders from the northern and more icebound seas. One cygnet will make nearly a dozen average-sized ‘'puffs,” which show how many women must be, to a greater or less extent, addicted to the use of powder. The puff trade is highly profitable, as may be judged from the fact that the down of a cygnet costs a little more than twenty five cents, the poor creature often being plucked alive so that it may bear another crop, while the puffs are sold at from seventy five cents upward, nicely mounted in bone and blue or pink satin, which ad juncts amount to comparatively noth ing. The ladies of Paris and Vienna are the largest consumers of puffs, owing chiefly to their fastidiousness in cast ing aside puffs as soon as they lose ‘.heir pristine delicacy. What Is Nerve? “I used to think,” said Mr. Grate bar, “when I read of .generals calmly dictating dispatches amid the carnage and uproar of battle, what nerve! But now as I try to write a letter here at home with the two older chil dren in tlie parlor playing the piano and singing with the vigor and voice of youth, the two younger children in the dining-room learning their les is one; two times two is two; three times three is three,’ and ‘Did the cat catch the rat? No, the cat did not catch the rat; why did no( the cat catch the rat?’ with a carpet Sweeper obligato by Mrs. Oratebar, and an oc rasional variation by the two younger children racing through the hall, coupled with a grand instrumental vocal staccato in the parlor, why I say to myself, ‘No, no; the true test of nerve comes not in the stormier scenes of life, but amid the delightful repose of home.’ ” Imperial Gifts.

De emperor of Kussia gave me dese. You see dis ring? De Emperor Napoleon gave me dis,” and so on. Braham, the tenor, in imita tion of this, would say, pointing to his umbrella: “You see dis?
