Wagner as a Humorist

When Wagner’s energy was not oxpended in his art work, sayr Gustav Kobbe, in “Wagner’s Personality” in the Forum, it found vent in many humorous sallies. ' He once quoted his teacher’s remark that he would never learn to play the piano. “But,” he added, “I play a great deal better than Berlioz.” The wagglshaess of this remark lies in the fact that Berlioz could not play at all. During a rehearsal of the “Rlenzi” overture In Dresden, the trombones were too loud. Instead of rebuking the mangrily, he said, with a laugh: "Gentlemen,, we are In Dresden, not marching around the walls of Jericho.” - After “Tanhauser” was brought out, a German composer of little note, named Chellard, said that the “Song to the Evening Star” was “wrongly harmonized,” and suggested certain harmonies which should be substituted for those employed by Wagner. ‘When Wagner was among friends It was one of his favorite diversions to seat himself at the piano and sing the “Song to the Evening Star,’’a ia Chellard.

Millions for Baseball.

A million of dollars is spent every year for baseball, but large as this is, it cannot equal the amount spent in search of health. We urge those who have spent much and lost hope to try Hostetler's Stomach Bitters. It strengthens the stomach, makes digestion easy, and cures dyspepsia, constipation, biliousness and Weak kidneys.

Remarkable Gift

It was said of Judge John Edmonds that he was never at a loss for a witty reply. “What a stupid person Mr. Brown is!” said some one to the Judge, referring to a man who was an extremely prosy speaker and blessed with a lead voice, which he used to its utmost capacity. “Indeed, I. consider him a moat Remarkable man,” sakl the judge promptly. "He’s the only man I know who can fill a house and empty It at the same time.”

Dt. Conan Doyle Is a very tjalck writer. It Is recorded of him that on one occasion, when returning home with a friend in the evening after a splendid day of cricket, he remarked that a certain incident would make a good story.

HUNDREDS FALL IN LUZON.

Vast Week of Filipino War Moat Deadly of Its History. Last week was one of the bloodiest of the Filipino war since the first day’s fighting around Manila. Authentic reports, mostly official, show a total of 378 Filipinos skilled, twelve officers and 244 men captured and many more wounded* The number wounded is hardly guessable, Considering that the Filipinos entirely lack hospital facilities a great majority of the wounded will dip. the week’s work finished 1,000 insurgents. The American loss was nine killed and sixteen wounded. Two sergeants and ons private were killed in ambushes while escorting provision trains. . The insurgents have been aggressive in almost every province of Luzon. Gen. Pio Del Pilar’s band, numbering 300, which was out of sight for three months, the leader being reported killed, has reappeared in its old field about Ban Miguel. Pilar is supposed to be ip command again. He gave the American garrison at San Miguel, consisting of three companies of the Thirty-fifth infantry, with a Gatling, a three hours’ fight during a -night attack. The loss of the insurgents in this engagement is not included in the foregoing total, as they removed their dead and wounded, hut presumably it was considerable. Twenty Filipinos in the province of Batangas attacked Lieut. Wonde, who, with eight men, was sooting near San Jose. The lieutenant and five men were wounded and one private was killed. Sergeant Ledoius of the Thirty fifth infantry was badly wounded in an ambush near Baliuag. Lieut. Balc-h of the Thirty-seventh infantry, with seventy men, had a five hours’ fight with 400 insurgents in the Nueva Caceras district. - Twenty of the insurgents were killed. Col. Smith of the Seventeenth infantry, who captured Gen. Montenegro and brought him to Manila, is in the isolation hospital suffering from smallpox, presumably caught from the Filipinos. Col. Smith’s command captured 180 officers and men with Montenegro. One hundred escaped Spanish prisoners from the province of Tayabas, south Luzon, have arrived at Manila. The insurgents have 400 more Spaniards in that district. Recently the Filipinos destroyed several rods of the railroad line near Paniquo in an unsuccessful attempt tc wreck a train.

FIANCEE HIS CHILD.

Photograph Leads to a Discovery and Ends an Engagement. But for an accidental discovery of his dead wife’s picture in his affianced wife’s photograph album, Adam Cordiff, a mid-dle-aged Ohioan, living near Hopedale, would have been married to his own daughter. He had arrived in Charleston, W. Va., to be married to the young woman, Miss Lucy Cole, and on the evening before the ceremqny was sitting with her looking at the portraits in an album. He was surprised into sharp exclamation by seeing the picture of his wife, dead for more than eighteen years. Miss Cole, noticing the exclamation, said: “That ia my mother; she has been dead many years.” In answer to Cordiff’s excited questioning the whole story came out. Miss Cole is not the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cole, with whom she is living. They adopted her when she was a little child, and she therefore took their name. She .paid she never knew who her father was and could not remember her mother. Her adopted parents were able to explain something of the story.

Side Lights on. the Boer War.

Mrs. Joubert, the widow of the late Boer general, has from the days of her earliest childhood been need to war's alarms. She can load and fire off a gun, and on many occasions has shown the greatest courage. She has an extensive knowledge of Kaffir warfare and her advice has often been acted upon by her husband, plans of campaign being freely ;discusaed over her dinner table. During jthe Magatoland campaign she, notwithstanding the heat—over 100 degrees in the shade —and the fever, joined the general a week or two after his arrival, accompanied by only two or three little Kaffir maids. Finding Qen. Joubert in anything but a comfortable tens, she routed him out, erected a tent of her own and Installed him amid all the comforts of home. What was more, she reconstructed the general’s mess arrangements snd cooked his meals with her own hands. If the printed pictures of British officers in South Africa are true to life they reveal the secret of the great mortality among them. The large per cent of killed and wounded officers has been attributed -generally to the superior marksmanship of the Boers. The latter undoubtedly shoot well, but it does not require a high order of marksmanship to top over men clad in knickers with bosoms built on the balloon order. The central feature of the uniforms look as though the “bishop sleeves’* worn oy women a few years ago had been converted into abbreviated trousers for the warriors at the front, and the underpinning is so long drawn out as to present the appearance of golf sticks in boots. The veriest amateur could scarcely miss such irresistible targets. They would provoke an unloaded gun to action. Gen. Lord Kitchener’s reputation has been seriously compromised not only by his strategic blunder at Taardeburg, which coat 1,500 men In a single day's fighting, but also by the complete failure of Lord Roberts’ transport service, which Gen. Kitchener organised. Kitchener's expedition through northern Cape Colony to quell the rebellion also proved an utter fiasco, and his officers, among whom his stern, overbearing methods make him highly unpopular, write most disparagingly concerning him. . —:• Gen. Gatacre's return to England is accepted as being in the nature of a recall, though no reason is given for it, and it will be associated In the public mind with his lack of success. Lord Roberts criticised his management of the. Stormberg attack, and possibly Gatacre's having arrived an hour hud a half too lste to rescue the Redersbnrg force may hare decided his return. National offices of the W. O. T. U. have been moved from Ch'cago to Evanston, hl

A Mote's Tears M l Would Cry Every Time I Washed IKy Baby.” “When h e was 3 months na.i of alizing what pain he was tu. His pitiful wailing was heartrending. I had about given up hope of saving him when I was urged to give him Hood’s Sarsaparilla, all other treatment having failed. I washed the sores with Hood’s Medicated Soap, applied Hood’s Olive Ointment and gave him Hood’s Sarsaparilla. The child seemed to get better every day, and very toon the change was quite noticeable. The discharge grew less, inflammation went down, the skin took on a healthy color, and the raw flesh began to scale over and a thin skin formed as the scsles dropped off. Less than two bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla, aided by Hood’s Medicated Soap and Hood’s Olive Ointment, accomplished this wonderful cure?- I cannot praise these medicines half enough,” Mrs. Guerinot, 37 Myrtle St., Rochester, N. Y. The above testimonial is very much condensed from Mrs. Guerinot’s letter. As many mothers will be interested in reading the full letter, we will send It to anyone who sends request of us on n postal card. Mention this paper.

Ve[?]in sad Pestllence.

A case of bubonic plague has been discovered in Sydney, Australia, and it is said that the man stricken, who is a wharf laborer, was probably infected by the bite of a flea. In some places where this pestilence has broken out the main vehicle of infection Is believed to have been rats, and rewards havs been offered for every rat killed. In Western!.Africa, where malarial fever stakes great regions uninhabitable for white men not native bora, It is argued that mosquitoes cause the trouble. Their bites are considered the main source of danger. It will be interesting to watch the development of this line of scientific investigation. The world Is pretty well convinced that humanity Is warred upon, constantly and with deadly effect, by minute organisms perceptible only to the microscope, and it remains to be seen how much connection can be established between these microbes and the larger forms of animal life which are now believed to play a leading part ln spreading various diseases of the tnost serious character. It is possible that some of the smallest creatures which bother human beings, insects like fleas and mosquitoes, will be attacked, as the world grows older and wiser and more disposed to worry about Its health, with greater energy than has ever been shown ln hunting down wolves or venomous serpents. No one will mourn for the victims ln any war which may be waged upon the stinging, biting, buzzing, creeping things that are one of the greatest nuisances of warm countries and warm weather, even if they are not considered a sohree of disease or danger.— Cleveland Leader.

A Boston Institution.

Among the unique institutions of this city is the Peabody Medical Institute, 4 Bulfinch street, established nine years before the death of the great philanthropist, the late Mr. George Peabody, from whom it takes its name. During the past thirty years it has achieved a wide and lasting distinction, and to-day it is of its kind in this country. The medical publications of this institute have millions of readers, and are as standard as gold. Their last pamphlet, ninety-four pages, entitled “Know Thyself,” free by mail on receipt of six cents for postage. Bend for it to-day,—Boston Journal.

After the Catastrophe.

"The cashier confesses that he wrecked the bank.” “And didn’t the assistant cashier know anything about what was going on?” “Certainly! He was assisting the cashier.”—Puck. When a family man takes a trip he can always count on being taxed for his own satchel and his wife’s trunks.
