yon
entor the room, an attendant will hand
Jour card to him, nnd whon tho mayor
as givon attontion to those entitled to
see him beforo you ho will call out your
nam. If an interviewer, you must be
ready with your questions, for tho chlof
magistrate of tho city is quick in his an
swers and direct in his speech, and al
though ready to givo yon aa much of his
time as you really noed he has nono to
waste whllo you aro formulating your
queries. If you aro slow at taking notes
and have ft good memory, you will do
well to dlsponso with tho former and
depend on tho lattor; otherwise you will

If you doHiro to got tho mayor's vIowh

Gomlal Tom Reed.
Ex-Spenkcr Reed is qulto as easy to in
terview as is Mayor Gllroy. Ho takes
you by the hand, smiles genially into
your face and asks you to be seated.
Thou ho talks at length and interestingly
upon whatever subject you have come
to see him about. But ho is qulto likely,
if you begin to tuko notes, to wavo his
hand and say in his inimitablo Yankee
accents
"Now, my dear fellow, I have not been
talking for publication. I am only toll
ing these thiugs to you not the public.
I must give deliberate thought to this
subject boforo I can talk about it for tho
types."
It is useless to press the matter after
Mr. Reed has said this, for he is inflox
iblo, but yon can always find some cur
rent topio upon which he "will submit to
be interviewed, and upon which his opin
ions will bo of. interest to tho rcadiuu
public. Ho is deliberate when ho talks J
to newspaper men, as indeed ho is in his
conversation generally although when
he becomes thoroughly interested tho
words tumble over each other, so impet
uously do they come, but so perfect is
his enunciation that it is easier to follow
him than some other men when they aro
speaking much moro slowly, and if ho
sees that he is going too fast for you ho
will wait.
When you loavo him, yon are apt to
feel pretty well satisfied with yourself
and the world at large, for he is sure to
have pointed his remarks with half a
doieu good stories "not for publication"
which' will havo made, you laugh until
your sides ache, nnd at parting he will
bid yon farewell with an exquisite cour
tesy rare to see.
rieuaat to Reporters.
Ex-Postmaster General James meets
you with a smllo from behind the mar
ble parapet in front of his desk at the
Lincoln National bank, of which ho is
president, and grasps your hand warmly.
"What can I tell you about today, my
friend?" be asks. He listens .intently to
your questions, and then he gives you all
the information at,hu command, and if
thereare points regarding the subject in
hand upon which he cannot enlighten
you he tries to think of someone to
whom he may direct yon for the missing
information, If it happen that the per
son be some ono in the bank; he will in
troduce you to him and ask that every
facility be given to yon.
General and Congressman Daniel E.
Sickles if anothor pleasant man, to inter
view, especially if yon wish to talk with
him concerning tho civil .war or the
brave men who took part therein. He
beams at you benevolently as he leans
on his crutches, and if the subject be, an
interesting one to him waxes eloquent as
be talks and emphastxes what be says
with forcible gestures. "Isn't that so?"
he will ask, wlih crutch uplifted, and
again, "Now. what do you think of
thatl"
If yon aw at his New York house ot
Fifth avenue, he is pretty certain to show

tue rooms are literally tilled, and lilto
Mr. Reed he is pretty sure to tell some
amusing stories or rotate some interest

Cavendish, Is tho most methodical man
when undergoing tho tortures Inflluted
by nn interviewer I have ever mot. He
is willing to tako inflnlto pains to sot
yon right, providing you will promise
him that he shall havo the privilege oi
revising your copy after you have pre
pared it for tho compositors, and he
talks slowly and with groat deliberation,
of ton stopping you to ask that what you
hnvo written shall bo read over to him
beforo you go further. All this provid
ing ho is willing to 1m Interviewed at all,
which Is not nl wnys tho enso. When yon
havo mndo a fair copy of your work and
tnkon it to him, ho goes over it with the
minutest rare, and you may bo euro that
after his revision it will contain no er

A vory satisfactory man to tho inter
vlowor was the Into Dr. Martin B. An-
dorson, president of the University of
Rochester. Dr. Anderson was not so
well known to tho world at largo as he
deserved to be, but among scholars he
recoived the recognition his command
ing ability and attainments deserved. I
was sent to him once when I was a raw
reporter to get a talk from him alwut
art and his collection of etchings, which
was a vory fino one indeed, containing
examples of the work of nearly all the
nastors of the noodle. I knew next to
nothing about etchings, but with infinite
patience he explained everything to me,
giving up three or four hours of his time
for that -purposo and going, over my
notes to savo mo the mortification of
falling into errors that would have boon
inevitable but for his helpful interest in
the matter.

James 8. Clarkson will not always
talk for publication, but he waa never
known to recolve a newspaper man in
any but a courteous manner. But you
must lo nimblo with your pencil unless
you aro sure of your memory. And
whon he begins to talk yon will be glad
if yon are able to writo shorthand. What
he has to say comes in short sentences,
epigrammatic and crisp, which chase
ono another, so to speak, with such rapid
ity that if you once miss tho thread you
aro hopelessly lost. To stenographers
Mr. Clarkson is, as ono of them put it
ruefully ono day in my hearing, "a holy
terror." If you can wait for him to do
so, nnd the subject bo ono which ho con
siders of sumcient importance, ho may
writo out what ho wishes to say, but if
tho writing bo in his own hand you may
wish you could read Sanskrit when yon
get the copy,

Abram 8. Howltt, ex-mayor of Now
York, ex-congressman and successful
man of business, will talk freely to the
interviewer when he is not too pressed
for time, and when he does talk ho ex
presses himself tersely and to the point.
On one occasion, whon I called upon him,
ho was standing in the larger of the, two
or throe rooms that make up his offices
in the ltttlo old building in Burling slip
that still bears tho sign of Cooper, How
ltt & Co., put up during the lifetimo of
his father-in-law, Peter Cooper. 'Mr.
Howltt was looking over a stock book
when I entered, and as he examined it
he penciled figures on a pad he hold in
his hand. When he liml, finished, I gavo
him my card without tho intervention of
tho offlco boy.
"Well?" ho said, fixing ids keen oyes
on my face interrogatively. I asked a
question and got a quick, comprehensive
answer. Then I asked another, which
was answered with like promptitude,
and so on until my queries wero ex
hausted. Then, with a quick turn of the
head and a hasty but not ill natnred
good day, ho went into his private office
after the manner of a man to whom
every separate minute is of great value.

tion yon desire. Mr. Jone is fluent and
earnest in what he says and never hesi
tant for an idea or words in which to
clothe it. His eye sparkles and a fine
flush works np Into his face as he ex
pounds his views, and by the time he has
finished yon have material for two or
three cracking good "stories" besides the
one you were after. Like so many oth
ers, however, he is almost certain to kill
two of them by the injunction not to
print, which he usually puts in more
binding form than any of tho rest by say
ings "Now, you know what ought to be
printed of what I have said, and I'll
leave it all to your own judgment. Only
be sure not to go beyond tho limit."

NATURAL BRIDGE IN MONTANA. .
Ob of the Wonder of tho Hocky Moun
tain Country. I
ISpcclnl Correspomlence.1
Lewistown, Mon.. Oct. 12. Of thei
natural bridges on tho American conti-1
nent, there is nono more remarkable
than that-situated in Montana about 70
miles north from tho National park, on
the east side of tho Snowy range of the
Rocky mountains.
nis uriuge ia crobuea uy uio wagon
road from Dig Timber on the Northern
Pacific road to tho new mining camp of
Boulder. It consists of a ledge of rock
about 90 feet in height extending across
a canyon 800 feet in width. The width
of the bridge at its narrowest point is
200 feet. A channel through this mam
moth ledge allows the waters of the
Boulder river to pass and gives a per
pendicular fall of 85 feet to the bottom
of the canyon. .The stream bursts fronr
out the side of Rocky pass with a tre
mendous roar, which can bo heard for a
distance of half a mile.
It is estimated that 200,000 miners'
inches of waldr pass through the natural
viaduct every minute. In June and July,
when the melting of the snow in the
mountains increases tho volume of water
in the Boulder, the immense
outlet
through the rock fails to let the water
pass, and an overflow is the result, some
times making travel over the bridge
hazardous.
There has been formed a company for
the purpose of utilizing1 this great fall of
water for generating electricity for the
operating of an electrio road between

A "Quotation Party."
A pleasant entertainment for a few
friends is called a quotation party.
When the invitations are given, the re
quest accompanies them that the recip
ient will come to tho party with three
nuotations

memorized. When theso
i quotations aro given, the name of the
author is to bo guessed by any of the
company who can do so. The first one
who guesses or gives the name receives
a favor, usually a flower, or a bit of nar
row, bright colored ribbon that can be
tied in tho buttonhole may be substitut
ed, and of course the one who wins the
greatest number of favors is the htn f
the hour.
