At a dinner recently given by a Wall street man who Is known for his hos pitality gambling was the subject of conversation, and many stories were told to show how the turn of the cards or of the wheel had made fortunes for some men and had made beggars of Others. The host told of one man who after pawning his watch at Ostend played and retrieved a fortune which had been lost and won "another for good measure.” Similar stories were told by other members of the dinner company, and the subject seemed to have been exhausted when a quiet man who has the reputation for daring on the floor of the exchange said: "Some years ago at the Saratoga club house I saw a young man whose father I knew chip away thousands at the red and black game. He had been at it for three days, and I was present when his last chip was raked in. We walked out together, and when we reached Broadway he said, ‘I feel it in me that if I could go right back now and begin where I left off I'd win.’ Ilis manner impressed me, and I staked him for a hundred and went back to the club. Now, from that little starter what do you think he won?” After all had guessed, naming.sums away into tile hundreds of thousands, he said, “He lost the hundred and owes it to me yet.”—New York Tribune. TIMBER WOLVES. The Cunning With Which They Trap and Kill Deer. Trobably of all animals there Is none which has more exciting experiences than a timber wolf. The wolf of fic tion Is a gaunt, hungry, evil looking animal. The wolf of reality In the north is slick and fat and about SO pounds for females up to 140 for males. He never chases rabbits, but is willing to finish the remains of an owl’s sup per. But if some one has put a rab bit down doped with poison he gener ally polishes that morsel off. They hunt deer by preconcerted plan. The pack station themselves down wind. Then one makes a circle and comes wind rights on the deer, which may be lying down or feeding, and of course makes a dash, never realizing that there is a circle of death dealing enemies before him. When the deer is coming in full jump the wolf first makes a short spring of six or eight feet, but the next is from twenty to thirty feet, and before the deer real izes danger his end is certain. But if he chances to get off his doom is sealed, nnd within three to seven miles ho is mn down or corralled. They seem to get nervous and excited and to know that there is no escape and turn to bay, and that ends it.— St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Selecting Poultry. In selecting poultry a well rounded form, with neat, compact legs and no sharp, bony angles on the breast, are the important marks which should be sought in selecting fowls for the table. The skin should be a clear'yellow and free from blotches and pinfeathers. If it looks tight and drawn the bird has probably been scalded before plucking. The flesh should neither be flabby nor stiff, but should give evenly when pressed by the finger. If the feet are left on they furnish a test of age. In a young fowl they are soft and smooth, becoming hard and rough as the bird grows older. Turkeys, up to a year old, are said to have black feet, which grow pink up to three years old, and .then turn gradually gray and grow dull.— New York Post. Napoleon's Haughty Horse, Napoleon when at St. Helena once said of his horse: “He has memory, knowledge and judgment. He distin guishes his master from his servants, although these are more constantly about him. I had a horse which dis tinguished me from the rest of the world and which manifested by his bounding and haughty gait when I was upon his back that ho carried a man superior to those around him. He would not suffer any one to mount him except myself and the groom that took care of him. When I had lost my way, I threw the bridle upon his neck and let him pick his way, with the inevita ble result of finding the right road.’’ Creative Interpretation. Interpretation is your construction put on Beethoven. It is Bach filtered through your temperament. It is Mo zart plus our personal equation. It is Wagner not minus the impersonal cymbols, but plus vital pulsations of your heart—and mind. Interpretation, declares the Etude, is as creative as composition. Your bricks are tones and rhythms. Being creative, it is not impersonal. Being creative, it is also not of the feelings alone. The subjec tive interpreter is a jellyfish; the ob jective one a rock. Your creative gen ius is one whose subjective and ob jective minds work'synchronously. The Limit. “How does that fashionable physi cian manage to get on as he does.” “Oh, he’s such a jollier.” "Is he?” “He went to the length of telling Cholly Softed that he was sure Cholly had something on his mind.”—Balti more American.
