"By all means get a set of Whistler's etching. Unquestionably ba will make for yon a selection. Ill speak to him." I told him. and hurried back with tha good news. ' 1 Whistler waa delighted, and for a day worked busily, oTcrhaollng and sorting bla proofs. Tba selection waa a splendid ona and called for a substantial payment. It was arranged that Whistler should meet tba pup chaser at a bank In Quean street tha following morning and recelre bla check. x I Most men under the circumstances would bara thought of little else, but by tba next morning Wblatler bad wholly forgotten bla engagement He had begun a saw canrae, and waa completely absorbed In It For a while I expostulated In vain, i "Coma, Wblatler," X aald finally, "you bara been away from America ao long that you don't appreciate tha value of time to tha traveler, particularly the American traveler. You moat sot keep tba man waiting." ! "Very well." aakl be, laying down his brash, wltb a sign. "Mow we'll go." I "Way war I replied. -I dont want to go," I protested firmly. To tell tba truth, I waa looking forward with a great deal of comfort to a morning all to myself. 1 "Oh, but yon must, b said calmly, bring lag my coat and hat and presently wa atood In front of tba bouse signaling a cab. I Ona came up readily enough, but, after ona acrntlnUlng look upon tha cabby'a part drove swiftly by; another went through the same strange proceedings. I looked questlonlngly at Whistler this odd circumstance bad happened before we were together but Whistler waa calmly'slgnallng. At length a cabby took ua In. 1 Wblatler always carried aa a walking atlck a long, slender wand, a sort of a maulstick, nearly three-quarters of his own height We were no aooner seated than he began poking his atlck at the horse. Tbe animal reared, plunged wildly and atarted down the street at a breakneck gallop, while the astonished cabby swore freely and tugged desperately at the reins. Wblatler looked calmly ahead and kept poking. i Butcher boys and grocer boya made wild lea pa for safety; outraged cabbies whipped their borsee out of the way just la time; burly draymen bawled curses after us, and still we went merrily on. little wonder, thought I. la the midst of my amasement and resentment that Wblatler never gets tbe same cab twice. ! Suddenly he began waving his cane and shouting "Wboal" lie took the astonished cabby severely to task for driving so fast upon tbe public highway and ordered him back to a corner we bad Just passed. I Here a greengrocer's shop, with its orderly and colorful array of fruits and vegetables, had caught WhlsUer'a aye aa we whirled by. Ua surveyed it critically now from two different positions, the cabby merely obeying bis orders, under tbe belief. X presume, that It was policy to humor a lunatic. ! "Isn't It beautiful r exclaimed Whistler, tie pointed his long cane at one corner. "I believe I'll have that crate of oranges moved over there against that background of green. Tea, that's better," he added contentedly. We drove on to tha bank, where we found the American pacing up and down In no pleasant frame of mind; but Wblatler soon bad him pacified. and we left him waving and mil Ins adleua at us. ; The Incident at tbe greengrocer's shop re (5s like an arrant affectation.

At Local Theaters v . ' Wallace Shows. Besides the standard gay, glittering and spectacular pageantry, offerings of the bigger circuses, there are announced uncommon, pompous and historical additions, among which the Oriental section will command unusual attention as an especially striking Invocation with the HagenbeckWallace Shows, which exhibit here on August 27. The management Invites general and critical attention to this all new feature free street parade, which, unless delayed by untoward circumstances, will leavo the show grounds dally at 10 o'clock in the morning. It Is really a mastodontc and rich production of a gorgeous fete or pageant of Oriental splendors, with hundreds of men and women seen In undescrlbably ostentations and lavish, display of priceless jewels and costumes. There are one thousand people and four hundred horses in almost endless procession, besides the herds of huge elephants, camels, dromedar ies, sacred Cattle, zebras and zebus with costly trappings and parapher nalia to give the requisite coloring and embellishment to the perpetuation of a brilliant event which outshines the elastic conception of the most fanci ful recorders ot pageantry glories. In this massive street parade the Innum erable embellished wild animal dens will be seen with their sides removed and through the bara exhibiting a ma jority of the magnificent wild animal performances. In many other respects the brilliant pageant will be 'striking ly original, full of surprises and sensa tions, merriment and music, -lavisn richness, cute ponies, tableaux cars of oriental and modern design and bewildering beauty, pretty women costr ly gowned and costumes, gallant men. brilliantly garbed, . a large colony of clowns, cavalrymen, huntsmen, buglers, jockeys and charioteers. Prior to the parade and from the moment ot early arrival of the trains bearing these great shows until their departure in the nlaht every consider ation Svill be shown the public. The populace will receive an early morn ing welcome at tbe crossway where the. trains are unloaded, and may view the Interesting operation without fear of unpleasant experience. The train superintendents, and through them their subordinates, have been Instructed to be polite and courteous at all times, and. in no possible manner to offend the most sensitive either by word or action. On the show grounds the same rule Is rigidly enforced in all departments, whether large or small. Ladies without escort and children unattended are assured respectful consideration on the show graunds, as every employe has been constituted a guardian for their protection. In fact, nothing has been left undone that would enchance the comfort pleasure and peace of mind of even the most aesthetic patron ot this great circus aggregation. At the Murray. When Nelson Compston wrote "The "Cowboy Sheriff," he hit a popular chord In the theatrical world as the play has proven to be one of the most Donular In the repertoire ot the Cut ter Stock company, which attraction Is now playing at the Murray. Western plays have had a strong hold the past three seasons and in this directIon Manager Cutter Is not felt want ing aa In the "Cowboy Sheriff," he has a play on the order of "The Girl of the Golden West" and "Arizona," consequently a first class performance Is assured. It would be advisable to secure your seats early at the Murray box office for tonight, as from present Indications the house will be capacity. This Is a play full ot the best comedy In which Mr. Cansdale takes the part of "Teddy," the bashful lover, a scream. Mr. Nestelle by request will sing again the song, "I'll Change the Thorns to Roses," a popular number tbat everyone is enjoying. This Is the closing bill for the Cutter Co., and the closing week of the Murray. The same bill will be presented tomorrow at both the afternoon and night performances. The Thieving Arabs.

The Arab's great idea is to possess a rifle. for tbat means power. In order to do this he must steal camels. So. having atolen camels, he purchases a rifle. Then come, more raids to take more camel, this time In order, to buy a wife. Camels are their sole means of exchange." . A Long took Ahead.

If you have no particular bent but many outlets, do not feel von must train yourself into a specialty for which you have no particular fitness, which, being more plainly translated, means there 1 room in the world for the odd jobs women. - Don't you believe It? Hear bow one girl who was suddenly thrown upon her own resources made for herself a comfortable living. When forced to take account of stock she found she had no particular talent but many knacks. She could not write atorlea, be a concert singer or player, paint miniatures or teach kindergarten, but Bhe could write a clever note, bake delicious cake, pack a trunk that was a joy to behold when opened at a journey's end, play Inspiring dance music, sing ballads blessingly and read aloud delightfully. In addition she could do tine mending, clean glovea and laces and had an artistic knack of setting a table or decorating a room. It would take years to specialise on any of the branches, with no certainty of final success. While debating the girl beard a business friend lament that there was no one to help her out on tbe numerous od'obs tbat overfilled the busy worker's scant time. ''Ill be an odd jobs woman." said the girl. ' , She would go Into a woman's kitchen and bake a cake, would set her table and decorate her drawing room for company, would stay in the pantry and attend to careful service and would later go into the drawing room to play for dancing or sing a few songs.

J MERCIFUL CAESAR. A Story 'of the Groct Ramanand . Band of Piratss. Caesar traveled with the retinue of . man of rank, and on his way t Rhodes he fell in with an advontui which may be something more tha legend. When be was crossing tl; Aegean, his vessel Is said to have be; taken by pirates. They carried hi: to rhartnacusa. an island off the C: rian coast, which was thou in the? possession, ami there he was detaine . for sis weeks with three of bis attenc ants, while the rest of his servant were sent to tbe nearest Koman st tion to raise bis ransom. The pirates treated him with polit ness. He joined in their sports, playt games with them, looked into tbe habits and u mused himself with tbe: as well as be could, frantly tellitr them at the ssune time that they woul. be hanged. The ransom, a very Inrpe one. about 10.000. was brought aud paid. Caesar was set upon the mainland, uear Miletus, where, without a moment's delay, he 'collected some armed vessels, returned to the island, seized the whole crew- while they'- were dividing their piutr.ler and took tbem away to Pergamus. ihe seat of government in tbe Asi:it!e province. -where tbey were convicted mul cruc-iJied. Clemency was not a Koninu characteristic.

When she was asked if she wasn't much more scared of tiger hunting, she declared In complete surprise that the "thing wasn't the same at all." Death In a tondon Hotel.
