I hesitate about telling the following
Incident because 1 should have consid
ered It unworthy of credence If 1 had
not been an observer of It myself 1
dont pretend to explain It 1 am not a
student of psychology It simply hap
pened and I am willing to run the risk
of being called a spinner of yarns be
cans I dont think that it can be
matched outside of the realm of pure
fiction There Is no attempt at com
position In my narrative lflvcnts In
ur lives seldom afford good speci
mens of composition the trivial will
take the center of the stngo to the ex
clusion of the tragic
1 hnve given all of the diameters
HctltlouB names In other respects I
have set down the things as they oc
curred
One cold stormy evening In the early
part of the winter I was cm my way to
the studio of Fred Hinnkloy the inn
rUie painter He had Invited me aud
several other men nnd women to meet
a famous French pianist 1 was a lit
tle late and when I drew near to thu
bouse which stands In a quiet street I
heard the sound of the piano I walk
ed up the steps aud a man followed
aie from the other side of the street
lie was about 30 poorly clad and j
ering with the cold There was some
thing of refinement in the cut of his
face but when he spoke his language
was strongly tinctured with toughness
Say boss If youre gon iuslde I
vrish youd take me wit you Its
blamed col out here an 1 kin amuse de
gues from de wold go
It was a cheeky request but I knew
my host well and felt sure that at
least the fellow would receive warmth
nnd some supper so I took him In The
elevator man looked askance at him
but I explained that he wus with mo
and that it was all right
How can you amuse us
Song dance tricks luiertutlons
nnyting at all he said
I held a hasty conference with
Blankley and he said Why of
course Give the chap a chance to
show what ho can do But ilrst Ill
have Sam give lilm something hot Ho
looks purple with the cold
A few minutes later the ragged fel
low for whom McCarty will be a good
name walked into the room where the
guests some 20 in number were seat
ed Ho went up to the great pianist
who was sitting on the piano stool and
said Soy Ill have V ask youse t
gl me a lift on a coon song Ill gi you
de air nn I guess you kiu tunip it out
all right if youro do same bloklo I
hoord before I kem in
Fancy asking a man whose terms at
a regular affair are 00 an evening to
tunip nn air for you Rut the big
man with the simplicity of a true art
ist smiled and said Wis plaisir and
after he had heard the air once he
played it with such harmonies as its
composer had not been able to give it
McCarty was not clever he was n
genius The coon song was sung with
such character and tunefulness and
the dialect was so perfect that when
ho had finished every one was asking
every one else who this man was The
net of camaraderie on the part of I
had almost said the Parisians name
also served to mellow the whole com
pauy so that they were In Just the
mood for the remarkable exhibition
that followed
Thu ragged fellow with the retlned
face and the unutterably tough accent
mnusod those present for at least three
quarters of an hour with a programme
as varied as If It had been interpreted
by half a dozen clever people Ills
Imitation of Dixey Imitating Irving
was followed by his own Imitation of
Irving and the latter was the trage
dian himself

drum major ay he had been In his
youth Hut no drum major In New
York ever twirled his baton with the
abandon and preelHlon of thin one It
was virtuosity A big mirror stood di
rectly In front of McCarty and fragile
ornaments were upon every side but
no one felt alarmed for their Integrity
He Inspired contldence TIiorc mobile
lingers were magnets that would not
lose their potency over the heavy cane
and when at last the band passed out
of hearing and McCarty dropped Into
n chair P the Kroncliinnn left his
stool and shook hands with him laugh
ing heartily the while and the audi
ence broke into salvos of applause for
both
In the simulation of a quarrel be
tween a Corkonian and a darky where
the epithets fell like rain uud the In
terruptions were constant and spas-
HE MUTTERED GRACE IS DEAD DEAD
modlc ho preserved each dialect In a
marvelous mannor His neatness of
utterance reminded me of Harry Kcr
nell but it was strongly Individual
Who was tills fellow who had the
mimetic ability of a Nat Goodwin and
a Manslleld combined and yet who
seemed to be aud undoubtedly was an
Ignorant outcast
His imitation of Paderewskl was
startling Although ho could not piny
at all he had devised a plan of move
ment for his ringers that produced a
tuneless horrible cacophonic form and
which compassed the whole keyboard
nnd the toss of his head and shoulders
nnd the action of his back and arms
were to the life
Among the Invited guests who up to
this point had not come was Mrs Mel
ville the most talented landscape paint
er on the Pacific coast Hers had been
a romantic story nnd doubtless It will
be remembered by those Interested In
urtlsts Hnpplly married she was one
day shocked almost Into Insanity by
the sudden disappearance of her hus
band genial Harry Melville He was
a stockbroker with no artistic gifts ex
cept a somewhat unusual talent for
Impersonation lie was wrapped up In
his wife and her work nnd no reason
could be Imagined for ills disappear
ance She had bravely kept up her
painting but she was a changed wom
an Five years had passed away and
she had conic cast to spend the winter
with her brother
McCarty was giving nn imitation of
May Irwin singing Ah Want Yer Mali
Honey when the door opened and
Mrs Melville entered accompanied by
her brother
As soon as her eyes fell on McCarty
she uttered a shriek and said Harry
Mcfarty looked at her casually then
anxiously Then ho stopped singing
and put his hand to his eyes and rub
bed them He seemed struggling to
recollect something
Harry dont you know me Its
Grace said Mrs Melville going up to
him and taking his hand in hers
The guests looked amnyed as well
they might for Mrs Melville was
queenly looking af dressed with ad
mirable taste and the contrast be
tween her and the emaciated tramp
was striking
It was pitiable to watch McCarty
now Tears were streaming down his
cheeks and he muttered half to him
self Grace Is dead dead Hut ho
clutched the hand of this woman whe
was talking so kindly to him as If lie
were loath to part with her Suddenlj
he sobbed out You are Grace Yoi

beoti out a long time It was bitter
cold and you were dead
It wns Harry Melville Most of hla
life from the time he left Han Fran
cisco until the tones of his wifes voice
at that strange chance mooting recall
ed him to himself will always remain
a sealed book Ho hnd evidently trav
eled all over the country and had ob
tained n scanty subsistence by tho ex
orcise of that mimicry wtyeli his men
tal trouble had not weakened but had
Intensified It la easy to explain his
gradunl lapse Into a tough mannor of
ppeeeh and but for my fortunnte moot
ing of him that stormy night he would
probably have lived and died as Mc
Carty
As the weeks went on his memory
of his early life strengthened and that
of his nomadic life faded Those who
hnd known him In Sail Francisco say
that lie Is the same Harry Melville us
of old Bave for a pedantic precision of
speech and a dislike for mimicry
When I told this to the blnck bearded
French plnnlst the other day ho whim
sically expressed himself as being In
tensely disappointed at the outcome of
tho affair As ho said Mrs Mulvllle
had become accustomed to tho loss of
her husband but the world had not so
many artists that It could afford to lose
one so preternaturally glftod as Mc
Cnrty
Mr and Mrs Melville gave a lit tit
supper at her studio only last month
and she had some very entertaining
people there hut never a man among
them witli a tithe of the talent of
Tough McCarty

Although many jewelers advertise

Moses piloted tho children of Israel
out of the bondage of Egypt Rings are
alluded to In the Hlble In the books of
Genesis and Exodus They have been
found among the relics of prehistoric
races the stone age tho bronze nge
and the age of the mound builders
Herodotus mentions that tho Baby
lonians wore them and from Asia they
probably were Introduced Into Greece
The rings worn In early times were
not purely ornamental but had tholr
significance as signet rings A kings
messenger delivering a message and
exhibiting the kings signet as author
ity was obeyed implicitly The Romans
had a marriage ring of iron with a
jewel of adamant signifying eternity
nnd constancy History mentions a
magic ring possessed by King Solomon
of which the Jews and Mohammedans
have abundant traditions It was by
means of this ring as a tallyman of
wisdom and power that Solomon was
enabled to perform those wonderful
nets and accomplish those vast enter
prises that have made his name so
celebrated as tho wisest monarch of
the earth The later Romans wore a
profusion of rings and the more ef

popular members of the Philadelphia
liar says The Inquirer of that city
recalls at times an incident In one of
tho courts which happened shortly
after he had been admitted to practice
law and which he tells with scarcely
the shadow of a smile
It was when court was just opening
for the morning session that a boy
sitting by his side heard the usual
prayer made by tho crier The lad
seemed surprised until as the last
words were uttered by the official
Ward without a thought ns to the re
sult punched the boy In the side with
his elbow and told lilm to say anion
Quick as a Hash came the response
from the boy in a tone of voice that at
first startled lawyers and spectators
and disturbed the equilibrium of the
presiding judge
When the Instant of astonishment
had passed men and women who were
present laughed lightly ns all eyes
were directed toward the lad and
Ward I was too confused to do any
thing says the latter except to look
In nny direction but nt the youth who
seemed to be appealing to mo to know
why everybody wns looking at us 1
still say amen myself when prayer
requires it but I have never told any
one else to do so since the occurrence

The subject of hypnotism was res
cued from tho charlatans rechrlstened
and subjected to accurate Investigation
by Dr James Braid of Manchester as
early as 1811 But his results after
attracting momentary attention fell
from view and despite desultory ef
forts tho subject was not again ac
corded a general hearing from the sci
entific world until 1S78 when Dr
Charcot took It up at tho Salpetrlere In
Paris followed soon afterward by Dr
Rudolf of lleldenhnln of Breslau aud a
host of other experimenters The value
of the method In tho study of mental
states was soon apparent
Most of Braids experiments were re
peated nnd In tho main his results
were confirmed Ills explanation of
hypnotism or artificial Houinnmbullsm
as a self Induced state Independent of
nny occult or supersensible Influence
soon gained general credence His be
lief that the Initial stages arc due to
fatigue of nervous centers usually
from excessive stimulation has not
been supplanted though supplemented
by notions growing out of the new
knowledge as to subconscious mental
ity In general and the Inhibitory influ

ously estimated from 7000 to 15000
over Goobol Dom Returns received
up to midnight also indicate tho election
of tho entire Republican ticket while
tho complexion of tho legislature is in
doubt
Tho weather throughout tho state
was perfect and more than an average
vote was polled tho total fulling but
little short of tho vote polled in tho last
presidential election
Comparatively little disorder pre
vailed and aside from several arrests
for alleged violations of election laws
tho election was characterized by a re
markable degree of quiotudo
Govt rnor Uradloy rumuinod in Louis
ville during tho day and had Louisville
legion in readiness for marching orders
Tho militia was called out after tho
closo of tho polls to onforco an injunc
tion granted by a local judge but tho
presence of tho militia was not needed
and tho companies wero soon ordered
back to the armory
Chairman long of tho Republican
campaign committee said at midnight
that Taylors plurality would not bo less
than 15000 This estimate ho said was
based upon estimates received from a
majority of tho counties in tho statu
Governor Bradley estimates Taylors
plurality at from 15000 to 18000
Chairman Long gave out tho fallow
ing at 1 a in regarding tho next leg
islature Tho Republicans havo elected
ten senators out of 1 Three moro aro
belioved to havo been olocted but tho
returns arc not complete whilo one is
in doubt Thero are two Republican
holdovers and six anti Goebcl holdovers
In thu houso tho Republicans havo
elected -11 members for certain tho
Democrats flfi and thoanti Goobel Dem
ocrats 5 Nineteen districts not heard
from This insures a fusion majority
iu tho house against tho Goebel law
and probably a Ilopuhlicau majo ity
Later returns tend to confirm tho Re
publican claims of victory and while
tho majority will not reach thoir esti
mated iiguro tho returns rccoivod up to
1 oclock continue to show Republican
gaiiiB and a plurality of 7000 is con
conceded by many of tho Domocratio
leaders while some of tho moro faith
ful aro claiming a plurality of 5000 for
Goobol It is thought that tho Repub
licans havo gained so materially that it
leaves tho comploxion of tho next legis
lature iu doubt despito tho holdover sen
ators Tho estimated plurality of tho
most sanguino Domocratio leaders is
based upon returns from tho interior of
tho state which probably will bo over
come by tho strong Republican coun
ties many of which aro inaccessible by
tolegraph and railroad
A bulletin issued at 1 a m by tho
Goobol campaign committee says Wo
