Yankee Doodle la one of the oldest songs
1n the 'World ' and at dllfcrcnl periods of
en unparalleled career has belonged to KnK-
land , to the once vast cniplro of Holland
and to the Itoman Catholic church , where
It probably originated , fcomewlioro about
the year 1200 A. D. If you happen to bo a
musician and do not bellcvu that such an
undignified ditty ever could have been In
tended for solemn purposes , play It over on
a plpo organ , ovry simple and slowly , and
as the majesty of a grand old papal chant
fills all your Eoul , all jour doubts vslll vanish
away ,
Several hundred yearn ago the good people
of Holland thought so much of Yanked
Doodle that they adopted she tune for a
harvest song and tnudo up new wonis for It ,
Mary Mapes Uodgo cites one of the verses
In "Han ? Hrlnkcr : "

Nobody knows exactly what thh verse
meant , but the lines Interest us , because
they are primely responsible for the word
"Yankee , " etc. . for the familiar English
version of Yankee Doodle.
Soon after being first sung , thli quaint
verse became BO popular among all classes
In Holland that It became a truly ni'lonal
nong. H was sung In livelier time than
the old chant which It supplanted.
While the great naval war of the olxteenth
century was In progress the Knglleti , undej
Admiral Drake , caught the tune. Much
to the sprprlse of e\ery one , England broke
the mighty sea power of Holland and when
tno fighting was over the Hngllsh people

against Its hated authors. Yankee wj-j
understood to mean a Dutchman. Since

Holland then tiled to forget the song und
It _ tius ! passed Into the hands of another
nation.
Cromwell UN Yankee Iloo < Ile.
All England sang varying words to It till
Oliver Cromwell's time. But , one day the
day that the great reformer rode Into Ox
ford at the head of the rebels to battle with
the klng'H army ho wore an Immense ostrich
feather fastened to his hat by a band of
heavy silk "maccaroni" cord. Yankee Doodle
dle then being a term of contemptuous ridi
cule , ono of the courtiers of the boastful
king composed the famous refrain :
Yankee Doodle came to town
Hiding on a pony :
Stuck a feather In his hat
And calle l It muccnronl.
This rhyme did not hold Its first popu
larity very long , because the rebels wcro
successful , and probably It would have been
forgotten entirely had not the old king's
y- eon returned to power a few years later.
Meanwhile the reformer had suns the tune
to many Innocent , nonsense verses , which
soon spread to America.
The best known of these was Lydla
Fisher's Jig , which made Its appearance In
New England about the year 1713 , and be
came famous aa a dance eong. The vvonls
ran :
Lucv I.ocket lost her pocket ;
f I.vdla. lusher found It.
/ Not iv bit of money In It ,
f Onlv binding round it. ,
1 "Lucy Locket" was very popular till 1773 ,
when Ilrltlsh regulars were encamped on
Iloston Common , nnd the natives of the city
and surrounding towns were organizing into
companies of "minute men" under John
j\ Hancock. While as yet there had been no
open war , the feeling was very bitter among
(1 ( | the colonists , who wcro held In such con
tempt by tbo soldiers that they were taunted
with the familiar tune to the words :
\ . "Yankee Doodle cnine to town
L li"or to buy a flnlock ,
T 'JV" vslll tnr ami feather him ,
And wo will John H'ancock "
This made 'the colonists so angry that they
declined any longer to sing an air put to
such contemptuous words against them
selves. A few weeks later something hap-
' v pened that changed their minds , for It vva
the destiny of Yankee Doodle to become , ap-

Ihr HrHcnn ( < i ,
In April , 1775 , Lord I'crcy marched out
of Doston with a brigade of Drltlih regulars
to disperse the rebel * assembled at Lcxlng *

old vvords which had vainly ridiculed Oliver
Cromwell over a hundred jears before. 1'er-
hap-j when , they began to sing they had for-
1 gotten how. even before Cromwell's time ,
I < ho tune had been turned ngalnst Its \ery
I authors. He must luve remembered before
i returning to Iloston , for at Lexington the
vaunted soldiers of King George were routed
i by a handful of patriots , who , when they
saw how things were going , went wild with
I Joy ami , taking the words right out of th
moutha of their adversaries , shouted In cx-
! haltatlon the song which had been aimed
at them In contempt.
During the flight back to camp the regu
lars wcro peppered with shot from behind
stone walls and trees , so much to their own
discomfort that Lord Percy , In a fit of dis
gust , next morning confessed that after
marching out to the tune of Yankee Doodle
they had danced to It all the way home.
Ono of the latest and aptcst historical If
least literary \crslons of Yankee Doodle Is
a stanza , said to have been sung hy some
of the Rough Riders In Cuba , after the surP
render of Santiago. It ran something llk
this :
"Yankee Doodle came to town
Wuirliit ; striked pants on ,
But Spain she saw so many stars
That now they need expansion. "
Yankee Doodle has already belonged to the >
thrco great families of the Caucasian race
the Latin , the Teutonic and the Anglo-
Saxon. In seven centuries It has been , car
ried Into the heart of four of tha greatest
political powers of history.

Inckpotn.
A South Side Chicago woman , who owns a
\ery clover parrot , entertained a few of her
women friends last week by giving a poker
party. Since then the cleverness of the bird
I has greatly rlaen In the minds of the women
friends. There were two tables , six at each ,
, and the game was a 23-cent ante , reports the
[ Chronicle. There was much merriment as
I well as good playing , for since the game has
become so fashionable the women have epent
as much time In becoming good poker play
ers as they used to In learning whist
After a while the game began in earnest
and the guests became as Interested as men
do over poker , each trying to get as many
chips as possible , merely to prove which was
the best thinker. The parrot seemed to
take a special delight In watching the table
whcro Its mistress was seated , and the
MINUTE MEN AT LEXINGTON.
women occasionally rewarded the bird by
talking with It.
At this table a good Jackpot was on and
each woman was anxious to do her best.
Ono of 'them opened It with two queens , aud '
a delighted smile on her face. The cartls !
wcro dealt and the hostess evidently Uld J
not hold a good hand , for she called for four
cards from the dealer. As she picked up
the draw she scowled dismally and was
about -withdraw from the game , when
with such a screech as only a well-fed and
well-trained parrot can utter , the bird
lighted on the table with wings out
stretched and clawed the cards and chips
right and left , even to those the players still
held In their hands. Everyone of the guests
screamed , and there- was a frantic grab for
chips by all of them. The pla > era from the
other table ran excitedly forward to sco
what was the matter , and It was several
minutes before things settled down again
to regularity.
The game then went on beautifully , the
hostess being really more successful at
playing than any of her guests. Again
there was a Jackpot , but no disturbance ,
and the hostess came out ahead. But the
next time there was a good , stiff pot , tha
hostess mailo another dismal face and
scon led aa she called for four cards , the
bird again lit upon the chips and cards as
before , and the pot went > to naught. This
second break , and refusal to put out the
parrot , broke up the game , and the guests
from each table politely withdrew and went
homo. Dut the eaylne that Is going the ,
rounds Is that the hostess will not be in-
vltcj to any of their card parties or other
affairs , and also that the parrot is a clever
bird , well trained.

THE MILLIONAIRE'S ' BISHOP
A Man of Oomraauding Influence Among
New York's Rich and Poor.
BISHOP POTTER'S ' SPHERE OF USEFULNESS
Hln t'nrcor nn it Clcru ) ninn , an Arlit-
trulur of I.ulieir Truulilcw nail u
Church II ul III cr Itcfi
! > ) All Crevilx.
There are two leaders In New York so
ciety. One of them Is Mrs. Astor ; the other
Is Bishop Potter , and the latter Is far and
nway not only the moat powerful and pictur
esque , but \cry much the more exclusive of
the two. Dlshop L'oanc of Albany may vcar
smart caltera and an orthodox apron and
Cardinal Gibbons a stately hat , but Bishop
IV > ttcr .comes nearer than any other man
In America to repiesentlng the prestige
of the archbishop of Canterbury or the au
thority of the pope.
Ostensibly , he Is head only of the Episco
pal diocese In New York ; In reality he
represents more \arled responsibilities ,
greater financial schemes and unique accom
plishments than any other man In the
metropolis. Ho Is , flrst of oil , bishop of the
richest dloceso In America , administering ,
with the skill of a William II. Vandcrbllt
on church property that , when it came Into
his care , represented a round twenty mil
lions of dollars. Since ho has taken charge
of this sacred fortune , so to speak , he has
Increased It at bounds , often a hundred
thousand a year. This has been done by
very long-headed Investments and by In
spiring rich parishioners to glorify the
church by donations.
Added to these cares Bishop Potter has
undertaken the biggest building scheme
since tha capital at Washington was put up.
That Is the Cathedral of St. John the 1)1-
vlne , which , when It Is completed , will rep
resent a great deal over the thirty millions
estimated for Its erection. Thirty millions ,
and Bishop Potter bus guaranteed to put the
schema successfully through , Is Just the

prlco of the cathedral Itself ; It does not In
clude the splendid altars , the windows and
organs , etc. , that at his persuasion his mil
lionaire admirers are already beginning to
supply. Ultimately the cathedral will stand
as a monument costing nearly fifty millions
to the ambition and energy , the diplomacy
and enthusiasm of one man who Iscry far
from a millionaire hlmeulf , though million
aires , with the exception of car drivers ,
cloakmakers and the llko are his best
friends.
A Mnn Much Sought After.
It is a good deal because of this , same
cathedral that the average Now Yorker al-
wa > s talks about Bishop Potter and points
him out boaatlngly. They -will tell you ho
is building an American Westminster abbey ,
a monument as bignnd fine as anything
Europe can show ; that ho Is the spiritual
guide and chosen chum of more moneyed
aristocrats than any man In the town , and
yet he Isn't a snob. It Is perfectly true
that no Vandcrbllt nor Astor feels tbat hoer
or she is properly christened , married or
burled unless the bishop Is on hand to glvo
blessings and benedictions ; that he Is asked
to lay foundation stones of Newport palaces ,
take the handsomest debutante helrefjcs In
to dinner , bo present at yacht launchlngs
and preside at the smartest functions , still
ho is not by any means u. more rich man's
chaplain.
If bo Is asked to more dinners In the
course of the season tlian he could possibly
eat , It Is because ho represents , -with Jo
seph Cboate , one of the well known men
who Is at once a wise and witty conversa
tionalist. Though his wit Is often caustic ,
smart society loves him none the less for it ,
while every hostess feels that the presence
alone of the bishop lends a vast dignity to
her table. It Is perfectly certain , though
ho never chooses to conceal his beliefs and
prejudices , that ho Is regarded with per
fect friendliness , even admiration , by men
and women of all creeds and on all munic
ipal occasions HUhop Potter Is called upon
to appear prominently. The public relishes
his brief speeshw. There Is no one In Ne-v
York who can make a few remarks with
the consummate grace , appropriateness and
distinction , and because of these countless

calls on his time he Is the busiest man In
the city.
A HiiKe UiiilcrtnkltiK.
In spite of the enormous labor he must
got through with In every twenty-four
hours ; in spite of his halo Cl years , and the
architect's conservative estimate that It will
require twenty > ears more to see the com
pletion of the great cathedral , Bishop Potter -
tor speaks always with pleasant confidence
of the time when he will conduct services
In the gieat chancel and dedicate the build
ing. Ills guarantee for this Is that he comes
of a long line of Potters , thrco of whom
were bishops , all of them mighty aristocrats
and every ono reached a ilpe old age before
they were gathered to their fathers. Though
not a rich man , In the Now York sense , nor
assuming the airs of one , ho Keeps his
huilth gooJ , and his back straight by in
dulgence In a single luxury. Like many an
other sensible hard-forking man ho spends
an early hour c\ cry day la Central park on
horseback , whether It rains or the sun
shines. Ho learned this from his friends ,
the athletic British bishops , who assume
far more style In living , dressing and enter
taining than the New York prelate.
A street car Is his fa\orlte conveyance
when ho Is not wnerlng miles on foot. In
manner ho is proud of being a good Amer
ican with bread church principles , and his
dress Is ns simple as that of a curate.
As his daughters grew up and got ready
to marry ho welcomed ccns-ln-law who
boasted nothing more than comfortable
means , and It is his habit , frequently
enough , to lay down his napkin In the
middle of the most brilliant dinners of the
season to fill an encasement In the slums of
the city.
Seen nt III * IlPHt.
Bishop Potter i ? probably most at his
ease and seen at his best when ho Is down
among his friends , the worklngmcn nnd
women. Ho heartily llkea nnd enjoys thorn ,
he understands all their sentiments , and the
cold , haughty , sharp tongued prelate who
rather frightens the debutantes , nnd who
knows how by the most exquisite diplomacy

half a dozen sentences , and the came man
who would refuse n reporter a tcn-mlnuto

He enjoys himself at the social extremes

Perhaps somewhere along in the class
with bores and reporters the advanced ritu
alists are relegated by the bishop. A ritu
alist Is apt to act on his nerves , somewhat
as the dlseenters used to affect Slilue-y
Smith , though on the other hand ho has
small feympathy with puritanical sentiments.
