HEROINES TRULY.
Cilrli Jlcacuo n Drowning lioy from nn
Upturiiuil Itont ,
A braver rescue or ono that required
greater coolness and nerve than the
saving of a boy from drowning by four
young women at Nantuclcot , Mats. ,
Tuesday last has not been recorded , and
they are heroines of the hour with the
hardy old islanders und the snminar
contingency. The girls wore Miss Alice
Corse , Miss Stella Lorlng , Miss Rutn
Loring und Miss Edna Corso. They arc
summer visitors and were rowing in n
dory from Monoway in a rough sea and
when half way across the harbor heard
erics for ho If , A mile away they eaw
three boys clinging to an upturned
boat. With till haste they rowed
to their assistance , the rough and choppy
sea breaking over their boat. When
near to the bout the hoys pointed to n
companion , Winchol Dunham , who was
in the water. IIo was trying to BUVO
himself , but was , so exhausted ho could
not reach the capsized craft. Miss'Edna
Corse caught hola of his arm nnd Miss
Lorlng got a rope round him und they
hauled him into the bout. IIo was sink
ing for the lust time und his face was
black. Ho was out of his mind and
several times tried to jump overboard ,
but the girls restrained him , while the
others rowed for land , a sailboat having
taken the three lads off the capsized
craft. They shipped bovora wuves , but
landed bufofy and energetically worked
over the boy's prodtVuto form until they
brought him to.
Milk hit Ice.
The northwest has invented a now
plan for making ice. The maker takes
a water can , HUB it with water und tots
it out of doors when the weather is
/roozing. As BOOH as enough ice is
formed at the sides aim ends to hold the
remaining water , the can is sot by the
flro until the ice is loosened. The cuke
is then lifted out into the open uii
where it is left to finish freezing. The
advantages of the method are three-fold
water will freeze at u higher tempera
ture in Binull than in large bodies , pure
water can be used und the cakes may be
made of almost any size or shape.

TWO IBANK STORIES.
llovr-Two.Slirowd Confidence Men Scoured
i " S OUOOO.
"In the early days before the tele
graph extended to all parts of the
world , " > said Secretary William B.
Green at the "Bankers' congress ,
to the Globe-Democrut man , " it was
much easier to work confidence games
on the banks than it is now. I don't
know that the history of banking in this
country affords nny moro remarkable
case than ono which took place in New
Orleans many years ago. A conlidcnoo
man visited that city. By the use of
skeleton keys ho obtained access to ono
of the banks. Night after night ho lot
himself in and examined the books und
correspondence until he had familiarized
himself thoroughly with the affairs and
connections of the concern. Ho dis
turbed nothing , but when ho knew as
much us tho..bank officials did , ho pre
pared forged letters of introduction and
papers of great apparent value. Then
ho presented himself at the bank of an
English gentleman of wealth. His cre
dentials were perfect. His letters of
credit were without a Haw. There was
no way of cabling to verify them and if
there had been it is doubtful if the bank
would have distrusted a customer so
completely equipped to deceive. This
man carried out of New Orleans $100,000.
Ho passed on up the river and was after
ward traced to various eastern cities.
IIo crossed the ocean and lived to the
end of his life on the proceeds of that
Now Orleans trick. His career abroad
was entirely exemplary und lie passed
for u iimn of probity. "
"My father , " buid tin eastern banker ,
"was one of the attorneys in the Rath-
bone case tit Buffalo , When it comes to
big and complicated forgeries that case
possesses some features which keep the
memory of it alive. Rathbono was a
builder. Many of the older structures
now standing , especially on Main street ,
In the city of Buffalo , were put up Jby
him. In the course of his operations ,
which were very extensive for that
period , Rathbono foil in need of money.
Ho was a pushing , energetic man , und
the leading citizens of Buffalo didn't
want to KCO him go to the wall. Ton era
a dozen of thorn agreed to go on a
note together for him. The amount waste
to bo $10,000 , or something like that.
Rathbono claimed that amount would
carry himovot , und the citizens thought
they would risk that much as a matter
'
of 'public Bpirit. Instead of contenting
hlmbolf with a single note , Rathbono se
cretly prepared about ton. IIo wenfto
the ondorbora singly und got ouch one to
sign a differtmt note , on the supposition
that it was tho.only ono. This gave him
ono genuine signature on each of the ten
notes , each bearing all of the ton or
twelve names. - Ho raibed by the notes
about $100,000 .instead of one-tenth of
that sum , and then the discovery came.
The forgery TUTUS so well done tint some
of the signers couldn't toll which was
the gonulnoi signature. They could
testify that they only signed their name
once , and that' was all. The testimony
was very uniutibfuctorv and confusing ,
but Ratlibono was convicted on general
principles and sent to .the penitentiary.
After ho goFjmt lie went to Now York
city , bccumutuuunch respected business
man and was straight till lie died. "

BLONDIN'S SUCCESSOR.
Wonderful Feat * I'rrrunncil by Cnlvorlcy
nt N
Blondlii's performances hnvo boon
fairly equaled , in some respects excelled ,
by Clifford M. Calvorloy , at Niagara
Falls , says the Buffalo Express.
Other men have strung wire cables
across Niagara's fearful gorge and have
orobbed and rccrosscd under , the admir
ing gaze of thousands.
But none has undertaken the feat with
the nerve and apparent recklessness of
the youthful Oalvorlcy. Ho was not sat
isfied to do merely what l.ilondin and
DixoiirMud done. IIo was ambitious to
sot a speed record and to eclipse all
previous performances and ho has suc
ceeded , having established a record for
crossing the river , and having given a
night performance with fireworks with
the wire enshrouded in darkness from
end to end.
Calvcrley is a young man , apparently
not moro than 25 jcars old. Ho is
strongly built and good-looking , and his
pleabant face is overshadowed by a
heavy head of silky brown hair tUat falls
in a big wave down upon his forehead.
There is nothing else striking about
him. WJion a representative o (
the Express called upon him
the ether day ho was the cen
ter of an admiring group in the parlor
of a hotel'at Niagara Falls , Out. lie
were a Prince Albert coat and an ex
pression as mild as might bo worn by a
theological student. There is no
bravado about Clifford Calvorlry. On
the day of the interview alluded to the
wind was blowing a hurricane down the
gorge , and ono had difficulty in keeping
a footinir oven on the Suspoiibion bridge.
Calvorloy was billed to walk at 3
o'clock. The Express representative
said : "You will hardly attempt to cross
the river today , Mr. Calverloy ? "
! 'I will if my manager bays so. I can
do it so long as tin : wind does not dis
turb my band bags. "
"Do you know what fear is ? " inquired
the Kxprebs man.
"That is an unfair question , " said he.
"I do know what perbonal fear it , but I
have no more fear of falling olf. that
wire than you have -t > f falling upon a
perfectly level pavement , or than a good
rider has of falling oft"a ircntlo horao.
The rushing wntorsdo _ not cause dizzi
ness nor docs the roar of tlio falls dis
tract mo. "
"Now that you have established a
time record , what next do you propose
to do that will prove your right to be
called kintr of high wire performers ? "
"
"I havo"a number of feats in mind ,
some of which are difficult and danger
ous , but whether 1 will attempt thorn or
not will depend entirely on the encour
agement I got from the inbtitutions bore
that are receiving benefit from my pres
ence. I intend to remain hero during
the season , giving portornmnces on
Wednesdays and Saturdays each week. "
Calvorloy is a Toronto young man and
was unheard of outsldoof his native city
until hibt summer , when ho crossed the
Niagara river the first time. IIo crosbod
the gorge then In 0 minutes and 8 bcc-
ondH. On the Fourth of July last ho
loworcd that time to 2 minutes , , ' ! , " > --.r )
seconds. A professional timekeeper
hold the watch , and at a given signal
the young man started on a bound toward
the American side. IIo ran at a steady
gait , never slacking , and his balancing-
polo not varying the entire distance. To
look at him ono would believe ho was
running on terra drum , BO easy was his
motion. When ho reached the Incline
of the wire on the American side ho
spurted and shot up the wire at his top
most speed , landing nt the wire's end all
out of breath. His time astonished him
self , and a great shout went up when it
was announced ,
The bamo. night ho crossed the wire
after dark and set off rockets and other
fireworks as ho proceeded on his eerie
journey. It was so dark that ho could
bo been only when the fireworks were
blazing about him.
A Vankco Trick ,
Globe-Democrat : I saw a curious
method used the other day in Illinois to
take the foul air out of a well. Tlio well
was to bo cleaned , but the man that took
the job was afraid to go down until ho
hud ascertained the quality of the air at
the bottom. Ho let down a lighted
candle , and when it descended to about
six feet of the bottom it wont out as sud
denly as though extinguished by u whiff
of air. That was all ho wanted to know.
IIo was then sure that the well had pois
onous gas in it and took a small um
brella , tied a string to the handle und
lowered it open into the well. Having
lot it go nearly to the bottom , ho drew
It up , curried it a few feet from the well
and upbot it. Ho repeated this opera
tion twenty or thirty times , with all the
bystanders laughing at him , then again
loworcd the light , which burned clear
and bright oven at the bottom. Ho then
condescended to explain that the gas in
the well was carbonic acid gas , which is
heavier than air , and therefore could bo
brought up in an umbrella just as though
it was BO much water. It was u simple
trick , yet perfectly effective.

Perhaps the fact ttmt "music hath charms
to seethe the s.ivago breast" accounts for the
fjood-nnturcd , merry crowds to bo foiiiul nt
the fair. At nuy rate tlio music I.i there-
enough of it to soothe the whole of creation.
You bring up against bands everywhere ntul
if you turn a corner are just ns liable to run
into a base drum or trombone us anything
clso. Musicians with their mysteriously en-
case' ' ) Instruments swnrm"lu nil lurts , either
poing to the particular section of atmos
phere assigned them to fracture or coming
nway from It for a much needed rest. A
man who bocnmo weary of eating salad to
Dcctho vcn's moonlight sonata for the
restaurants all have their "orchestras , "
ranging from n full corps of uniformed musi
cians down to n plano-coniot-vlollu combi

"Martha , " nnd having dessert sprinkled
with a potpourri of marches and waltzes ,
tried nil obscure little cafe and entered upon
his meal with thanksgiving and quiet , lUit

soug in tlio "Isle of Champagne , "
beginning : "Oh , the prodigal son was
a ion of n gun , lie was ,

siilit confection of harmonic jingle ho will
understand why the man tore Ills hair nnd
hastened awuy to the shores of the boundless
lulio to commune with himself. The poor
fellow was found hours afterward wiuulor-
ing n round , singing nt the top of ilia voice ,
"Oh , tra la la la bo was , bo was , " nnd was
borne nwny into captivity by n pitying Co
lumbian guard. Hut still the awful work
goes on. It Is n heartrending sight to sec a
pretty girl suddenly stop in the midst of nn
enjo.vnblo meal nnd nearly sutler lockjaw at
tempting to chow in waittime. . A man
nearly choked to death the other dny bo-
CUU9O ho was drinking to the time of n quick

music1 , so of course bo stopped swallowing ,
but forgot to take his glass down. Tlio pro-
prlutor charged him $100 , as ho said that
was n modest estimate of the amount of
business ho lost wbio all tlio waiters In the
establishment were pounding the unfortu-
natu man on the back.
A Itldo on tlio 1111111 ] ) .
Did you ever ride a cameU It is llko no
ether ride under the sun. The camel is
about eight feet high when ho has all tlio
kinks out of his long legs. Nature has not
particularly favored tlio camel in the way of
physical beauty. He is always moth-eaten ,
shecf-worii , faded and rickety. Where bo is
not angular ho is lumpy. Ills hair is worn
off in patches feet square and no ono can
count tlio joints of Ins tremulous , loosely-
woven legs. His beauty Is not enhanced by
the soiled and tattered saddle of carpet and
cheap ornaments which adorns his back aiid
the grimy nailer in which his long , mojrnful
head is bound. But the camel lias made a
bit nt the fair , notwithstanding physical dis
crepancies. The camel is tl-c comedian of.
Cairo street in Midway Plaisanco , Ho keeps
the sunny strcot In n bubble At excitement
and laughter. While he is tipping people
Into nil sorts of frantic attitudes and angles ,
causing women to shriek andi'mako''a recH > '

Hngerib"a'nd sending nn Idle erowl-'into'
paroxysms of laughter , ho always maintains

Getting Abnnrtl.
.Before the rider mounts th'o camel Is made
to knco ! no ono can tell tiow bo docs it.
But be sort of telescopes himself , .folds up
like a Jackkmfo , settles in complete repose
on n piece of matting and awaits bis cargo.
Tlio driver , u big dusky man in a loose gown
and twisted turban , grasps the prospective
rider around tlio waist and deposits tier on
tlio saddle an though ho ucru handling n
sack of corn. If sbo shows a desire to fall
off and loses her bat as tlio camel staggers
in rising ho grasps her lirmly by the nnlcles ,
and , in a volley of vehement ligyptlan , begs
her to Keep cool and hang on. When she is
securelyseated the driver tugs at the baiter
nnd thumps the camel over the neek with
bis stick. At flrst the camel shakes his
head in drowsy protest. Then suddenly his
hindquarters begin to lift. They keep on
lifting. It seems as though ho is using ono
end ai a timo. The woman's hat falls over
her eyes , she shrieks and makes a frantic
grab in the direction of the animal's tail.
As sbo clings to this forty-degrco-inelino the
animal pauses , then be swings to the right
nnd loft with a drunken motion , causing her
to give n good illustration of the movements
used in swimming , and llnnlly untangles his
front legs. While she is tipped back to save
herself from blid jug ott the saddle and uown
his long neck , hn lots out another link and
the front half of bis anatomy comes up with
n bump.
The Iliilf Way Mnnt.
The woman gives a Coinanche whoop and
narrowly escapes tobogganing over bis tail.
Aftersovcr.il repetitious ofotiils come-up-a-
notcli movement the cainol shakes the kinks
out of all bis legs and slowly turns around ,
wabbling like u boat caught in the trough of
the oa. With bat awry and equilibrium a
little shaky she linally starts on tlio ride
down the street. All this time the hundred
or two people who have been .standing tbero
an hour or moro just lookini : on and having
a good time have been yelling with gleo.
When tbo ride is ended they return to the
starting place. When It comes to dismount
ing tbo camel Is n little uncertain. IIo may
lower his rear haunches some eii'lit fcot atone
ono la/y droop und allow the rider to slide
eracofully over his tail , or ho may swoop
carelessly to tbo front in nil threaten a
"header , " Usually , however , ho comes
down by degrees , us before stated , merely
telescoping himself , breaking nach leg In u
new place und giving his rider nothing moro
than a few uneasy swings backward and
forward. Camel riding has become a cnuo
in Midway and you have not properly
"done" tlio fair until you have had u cumcl
rido.
An Innovation In Miulo ,
A decided Innovation In muslc.il entertain
ments was made In the Javanese theater m
Midway plaiaaneo. Kemenyi , the violinist ,
played with the niuive orchestra. While
on one of bis tours Hcmenyi visited Java ami
made n study of the music. He s.iys it rep
resents the llrst unit In music nnd has never
changed. The natives of Java have hold to
early traditions nnd novcr attempted to nil-
vanco. IIo calls It a growth by itsolf. After
the regular performance Kemenyi took his
violin , and , In company with n few friends ,
went to the theater. The violinist took a
seat on the stage und the orchestra began to
play a selection known to the natives ns
"Largoo TurRwangsa , " The harmony is by
turns wolrd , spirited and melancholy. The
gamolons native instruments were [ Uaycd
eoftly , nnd alter waiting u moment to catch
the tliomo , the violinist commenced to piny.
No entertainment of like naturu was over
seen In this country boforo. It was musical
nrt of cnrl.r ngcs meeting science nnd skill of
modern times. On n chair on the ntnpo tithe \ |

tholr small , brown faces. The cry of the
violin rang to the bamboo roof above In tba
tragic iussagei and sobbed In tbo plalntivo
ones. With each change Hcmouyl varied
his improvisation. It was n literal trnnla <
tlon of .Invaneso music to modern under *

SULLIVAN'S "LOST CHORD. "
How Swiftly the Composer
1IU Work.
In his memoir of Sir Arthur Sullivan ,
jiibt published in Kuyhind , Mr. Willoby
cites many instances of the eonipossrlti
remarkable rapidity in work. "I'entrn-
biimlistu" was composed , toured ami
rehearsed within sixteen days from the
receipt of the manuscript libretto. The
overture to "lolanthc" wns commenced
at ! ) o'clock ono evening anil finished at
7 the next morning ; the overture to
' 'The Yeomen of the Guard'1 was com
posed and fccorcd in twelve hours , while
the magnificent epilogue to "The
Golden Legend , ' . ' which , as Mr. Willoby
says , "for dignity , breadth and power
stands out from amongst any of hla
choral examples , " was composed and
Scored within twenty-four hours.
t How "The Lost .Chord , " perhaps thq
iflost successful song of modern times ,
came to bo written is related by Mr.
Willeby in a touching little story. Only
a few months after Sir Arthur Sullivan
had accepted the post of principal of the
national training school for music he ro-
ccivcd a severe blow in the death of hia
brother , Frederick , whoso titlents ns nu
actor tire well remembered. l''or nearly
three weeks ho watched by the sick :
man's bedside night and day. Ono even
ing , when the end was rapidly approach
ing , the millcrer had for a time smile
into a peaceful Moon , and as his faithful
attendant was bitting as usual by the
bedside it chanced that ho toolc up t-onm
vorhos of the late Adelaide I'rootoi with
which ho had faomo years previously
been much impressed. Now in the htill-
ncb of the night he read them over
again , and almost as ho did t > o ho con
ceived their "musical t'qiiivalont/
shout of music paper was at hand , and
ho began to write. Slowly the niusio
grew and took bhapo until , becoming ab
sorbed in it , ho determined to linibh the
bong , thinking that even if in the coltj.
light of day it should appear worthl r
it would at leHbt have helped to pass tlio
weary hours , and so ho went on till the
last bar wab added. Thus was composed
a hong of which tlio bale up to now has
exceeded ijO.OOO copies.

If wo look 'Intently at a bright star wa
notice that the color and intuiihlty of thu
light is constantly changing from brilli
ancy to almost total obscurity , and from
bright red to blue , ornngu , yellow , oto.
Thlin the phenomenon usually spoken
of UB the "twinkling" or bclntillntlon ot
the stars. The "twinkling" will bo no'
ticcd moro plainly when the star in near
the horb.on , und will diminish in in
tensity as it rises until it is near the
x.enith , at which time the twinkling in
scarcely noticeable. It miiit be coni
lehsed that thiq twinkling has never
been explained to the autintuution of all
investigator * * . However , It is generally
believed to be due to controlling cauueu
within the carth't * atmosphere. That
the caiiHo may bu looked for within the
bolt of air that mirrounds our planet ( to
particles of vapor , etc. ) may bo inferred
from the fact that the planets never ex
hibit the charaiitorlstic twinkling so no
ticeable In the star. One reason for this
is the sl/.o ( apparent ) of tlio planets.
The planets each show a biuislble dislc
oven to the naked eye , while the strong
est instrument in the world only tihow.i
the stars as being mere points of light.
This being the case , any foreign sub
stance in the atmosphere would mo *
mcntarily hide the light and make the
star appear to "twinkle. "
