Hut «he most tntereatlug part of the hour eame after the completion of the formal address, when an opportunity was given to the aulletu-e to ask any questions they wished of Mr. Jefferson Soon the familiar topic was introduced, the effect of the modern elaboration aud realism in stage setting Mr. Jefferson at once rose to the question. He spoke somewhat rapidly, with a quaint humor and sympathetic charm that were irresistible. He characterised the modarn fashion of stage setting as “a tribute to the weakness of the butmui imagination " “I am often asked." be went on. "why I do not have a real »!'■»< ttehneider. But If I <lld none of you woulu be satisfied. You would go home saying. ‘Well. Schneider never looked like that dog!" You love Schneider because you have made him out of a piece of your ow® heart And then.” meditatively. "If I had a real Schneider tome one In the gallery would probably whistle to bim at the critical moment, and be would bark and spoil the play. While If be knew bls part perfectly and did just what Schneider ought to do"-pauslng am! with bis delightful smile—" Schneider would be the hero and not Rip!" Then, with a twinkle of the eve. he summed up the whole matter with the quiet remark. "Realism with a tall to wag in th-- wrong [.lace is a dangerous thing.” —New York Post. BAR HARBOR. Ibe Early nays of This Noss Famous Maine Hummer Reaort. In ISSs Mount Desert and its neigh oorhood were granted by the French to a man named Cadillac. When Acadia was finally as a result of that long war relinquished to England It was given to Governor Bernard, but as this gentle man when the Revolution broke out was loyal to King George the estate was confiscated. Meanwhile M. Bar tbolomew Gregoire and his wife. Maria Theresa, who was the granddaughter of the original grantee, revived the claim of Cadillac, and It was allowed. For years the island remained a solitary place, with long stretches of unbroken forests into whose labyrinths no stranger dared venture without a guide. Its land uncleared. Its future undreamed of, but artiste, weary of the commonplace, found out the spot and bore to dwellers in towns glimpses of its wild charms, aad now and then a world worn, brain sj>ent man wov" steal away to seek the island's solitude and stimulus. These seekers for beauty or health would carry their own camp outfit or later would patronite the hotels. The first summer cottage there was oullt on a site that was bought for 530<?. When fashion bad put her stamp of approval upon the place land that would not have brought a dims au acre during the time of the Gregoires was sold at from 625,000 to up.vard of 5100.000 an acre —Four Track News. Slrlndlnir laeense In China. A missionary traveling down the Lan .leer In Mongolia says be passed thir-ty-one rapids in one day. At most of them were water mills for the grinding of aromatic trees Into powder to make Incense. The trees are chopped into small pieces and thrown Into a bole tn a heavy millstone, which revolves on a larger stone as the water rushes through below. In the rainy season, when the river flow® full and fast, a pair of mills can grind 200 catties <266 pounds) of incense a day. It is made up Into bundles of this weight snd sold on the spot for fifty strings of cash (about 56). The OrlKlnal Pywmtes. African pygmies are about four feet to four feet three and a half inches high. To be in harmony with their name, however, they should measure only thirteen and a half Inches in height. For the original pygmaei, whom Homer believed to live far to the south and who were warred upon by cranes and whom Herodotus knew to exist in Africa, were named after the Greek measure "pygme,” literally a fist. This was supposed to be the distance from the elbow to the knuckles, reckoned at eighteen "dactyli,” or fingers, equal to thirteen and a half Inches. Almoat Too Late. Colonel McSchwartx was telling the caller how wonderfully the town had grown. "Why, when I moved here with my wife and daughter twenty sev”— “Papa,” Interposed Miss McSchwartx, "there’s a mosquito on your neck. Let me pinch It off.” “Ouch!" exclaimed the colonel. "As I was saying, when we moved here, quite a number of years ago,” etc.— Chicago Tribune. Gave Himaelf Arrnf. Detective Captain—How- did you manage to spot the thief through his woman's disguise?
