Int a Alan Who 8#ed a Fellow Mao f8" rroin Suicide. -Well, I would hardly be willing lo?ay," responded the physician to tf Wuiry made by one of a group ??listeners, "that a man who com mitted suicide was insane, for 1 kaowaovoral persona who were nev er iuspected of insanity before the ,ct, uor bavo they been since, who, to W certain knowledge, have at tempted suicide. One or two cases j,avo been public and have got into tie uewapapers, but the great ma jority of them are professional se (xc\s, ami no ono will ever know of them except thoso fow who know 0w. That's ono of the responsibili ty that a physician takes upon inisclf. I recall ono instance where 1 voil a mau from committing sui de, ?od, though he never showed e slightest symptom of it after ard, I am positive he was crazy at loon at the time of the attempt. It anpeued about six years ago is a estera city, in a hotel where I was e resident physician. I had met Bernau in the evening after dinner d had played a game of chess with ?m in his apartments, the finest lit iii the house. He had arrived t the hotel the day before alons d Lsd asked for the beat rooms, iug for them in advance. Then Lad asked for the house phy al ian, ami as one result of our ac uaintanoe we were playing this amo of chess. We had had one or o mild drinks during the evening, ,d aftor the game was finished ht ed the talk upon suicide, having me very interesting and peculiar eas on the subject, chief of which as Lis utter aversion to self mur under any circumstances whitt et. He was so firm in his opposi m that ho almost lost his temper: eu 1 ventured the assertion that leide might be almost justifiable, "lathe midst of this conversation suddenly went into the adjoining and returned with two revolv* which he laid down on the ta* le between us. I didn't understand hat they were for and asked him. "Well," he answered in the cool* kind of fashion, 'the time ha? e for me to die, and you have to kill me. My soul would bi ned forever if I did it myself, t if you do it my blood will not bs my own hands. There are twa .olver B. You take this one'-? ding me one-'and' I'll take th? er. As you see, they are both ded and in perfect condition. If do not shoot me within a min Ishall shoot you.' "He took out his watch, and, ding five or six feet from me, hs ted the ticks and aimed his gun tly at my head. I saw by his that he was crazy and that 1 d have to obey him or pay th? Ity of disobedience with my life, still I did not want to shoot a in, however I might be justified it With this thought I lifted the olver, and, taking careful aim, watching me narrowly, I drew gun square down upon his fore* ri.jud just aa twas about to pul] 1 trigger I threw it to one side and it for his pistol arm.

Koystones and ftoj stone mnnks are only Cohibe found in classic, noo claseic and renaissance architecture, by reason of the Gothic styles not using the rounded arch. The pointed windows and doorways ranging from early English to late Elizabeth an have no prominent keystones. Perhaps the best known and alto gether most notable keystone masks are those that decorate the center arch of Henley bridge. The present bridge of five arches that crosses the Thames at Honloy was built in 1786. The mask ?acing up river is a head of leis; tbatv?/aciug down stream represents the conventional idea of Father Thames, and they aro really admirable examples of the sculptor's art. They were tho work of that very accomplished lady, the Hon. Mrs. Dawson-Damer, who at that time resided at Park Place, Henley. She was cousin to Horace Walpole, for whom she carved an eagle so exquisitely that he wrote under it-this enthusiastic cousin, "Non Praxiteles sed Anna Darner me fecit." So, you see, Praxiteles can never filch tho credit of that piece of sculpture from thia lady artist of the eighteenth century. But the Hon. Mrs. Dawson-Darner was, after all, only an amiable ama teur. She gavo her work to tho bridge authorities-a most repre hensible vagary-yet the recipients were grateful, as witness tho "Bridge Minutes. " True, they only acknowledge ono maek: "May 0, 1785. Ordered that tho thanks of ths commissioners be given to the Hon. Mrs. Darner for tho very elegant head uf the Ri ver Thames whioh she has cut and presented to them for the keystone of tho center arch of the bridge." There are several good examples of sculptured keystones in London. There ie an elaborate design, for in stance, over the western doorway of St. Bride's, Fleet street, contem porary with Wren-possibly his work. It exhibits that widespread convention of the winged cherub, podgy and smiling, whom you may find gracing all the city churches in different positions of usefulness, now as a keystone, now a corbel, and again, most appropriately used as a decoration for fonts. The Guild hall museum-that olia podrida of London antiquities, from Romano British old boots and potsherds to massive Jacobean carved fireplaces -has two keystones in its crepuscu lar crypt. One came from an old house in Paternoster row, now de molished. It WUB the keystone of a window. Another, from tho door way of a house in Spitul square, ic an example of that very debased art, the domesticated keystone mask, so to speak. There was at the end of last century and at the be ginning of this quite a classic rage. Buildings fondly believed to be oi classic design sprang up every where, and traces of that fallacy ara to be seen at this day, even in the undistinguished streets of what were at that time the suburbs o' London. Parts of tho Marylebone road, the Clapham road, the Old Kent road, and many streets of Ken sington and Brixton, show thia de based classicism, and many of these houses hear keystone masks over their arched doorways. For the most part, however, they are not sculp tured. They are of perhaps half a dozen different patterns, and they are nearly all cast in plaster from a mold ; also, the would be classicism of themis generally very dreadful to look upon. A keystone that no longer fulfills its office of completing an arch is to be seen in the shape of a grotesque head built into the wall of a house in King's Cross road above a singu lar tablet bearing the inscription, "This ie Bagnigge House neare th? Pindar a Wakefeilde, 1660." The "Pindar of Wakefield" was the sign of an old inn that stood near hers and took its name from a popular play of that title that was written in the time of Queen Elizabeth. Bag nigge House, too, is gone, and also Bagnigge wells, that one time fash ionable suburban spa. There is an archway in the renais sance style leading into New square, Lincoln's Inn, that has a sculptured keystone on either side-gaping and glowering masks that look down with forbidding aspect upon th? barristers and solicitors, the attor neys and olerks who pass beneath them continually to and from th? law courts across the street. Dour and threatening they are and typi I eal of the terrors of the law to un 1 successful suitors, mulct in heavy costs, but never yet have portents, | .Ten mor? insistent than these guardians of the legal precincts of Lincoln's Ian, dissuaded the angry and litigious Briton from rushing in where ofttimes lawyers fear to tread on their own account.-St. James Budget.

Different Method*, lu t'so at New York Uotcla ?ind Kvktauranta. If there is one particular branch of the culinary art in which tho av erage housewife prides herself, it is in hor ability to make good coffee. As far as compounding tho favorite broakiust beverage is concerned, che niuo times out of ton does not dolude herself, but nsk any man who is the least bit of a bon viveur and ho will tell you that not ono woman in 100 can make un after dinner coffee that is ht to drink. The coffee that is sot boforo him at the family tablo is UH different from the clear, brown black stimulating liquid that is served in tho clubs, restaurants and big hotels tts is wa ter from wino. He wonders why this should be; but, wore he to pay a visit to the precincts sacred to tho ftowards of our large hotels and there learn just how much time, care and money are devoted to tho preparation of this one concomitant of a well served dinner, his respect for the housewife's efforts would probably incieaso, while his enjoy ment of the postprandial nectar would doubtless be augmented. Ono of the most important officials ! in evory large hotel and restaurant in tho city is known as the "coffeo mau." His eolo duty consists in "buying, blending und making tho gallons of coffeo that ure consumed daily by the guests. He is very apt to have pronounced ideas regarding blends and mixtures, but his fad par excellence is tho particular kiud of coffeepot or urn to bo used in con cocting the beverage. Tho views of the Waldorf coffee mun differ from those of the super- , intendent of the Imperial. At tho Fifth Avenue another blend and an other mode of compounding are adopted, while at the Arena tn? method of coffee making is peculiar ly their own. At the Waldorf the blend favored for breakfast coffee itt two-thirds of a pound of Mocha to one-third of Java. Tho Waldorf cof fee mau does not favor coffee that is finely ground, but soaks it in cold water for a full hour before it is put in tho large sieves of the countless huge silver urns of tho establish- ' ment. For breakfast he uses about a pound of coffee to 5 quarts of wa- 1 ter. This is poured through the sieve and strainers, whioh are arranged in the urns in the regulation French coffeepot fashion, four times. The result is u clear, amber colored liq- j uid of excellent flavor and strength. I For the after dinner coffee ho pre fers a blend that is composed of rather more Java than Mocha, and but 4 quarts of water are allowed ta the pound. The process of making is the same. At tho Arena coffee ta made on the tables in Viennese coffeepots by what is known as the steaming process. There the mixture consists' of equal parts of Mocha and Java. About an ounce is allowed to each individual pot. The pots themselves are quaint looking affaire of ham? mered brass, porcelain lined and with glass tops. Underneath ia swung a small spirit lamp. In the body of the pot is placed a sufficient quantity of cold water, while the al lotted ounce of Mocha and Java ia put, perfectly dry and very finely ground, in the glass top. When the water boils, the steam slowly as cends through a tube, and as it per- \ moates the dry coffee drop by drop the pure coffee essence falls into a receiver, with the result that a per- | fectly pure, full flavored coffee of the fullest strength is obtained. Thia process is also ueed hy many of the quaint restaurants affected by the foreign element, but the coffee used is the strong black blend popularly known as Turkish. Russian coffee , is also made in the Viennese pota ! The mixture consists of equal parts of Bio, Mocha and Java, to>??vhicb has been added a tablespoonful ol ?ark brown augur, ? tablespoonful of rum and a liquor glass of kum- . mel. ( At both the Imperial and the Fifth Avenue the Mocha and Java mix- j ture is favored, but at these hoteli both French and Viennese pots are tabooed, and the old fashioned meth od of straining the coffee through a flannel bag prevails.-New York Times. _ Antiquity of Welsh Melodie?. The antiquity of many Welsh melodies is traced with difficulty, but there are good reasons for be* lieving that "The March of the Monks of Bangor" dates back to tho event which it celebrates and that it waa in reality the strain by which those devoted men, the white monks of Bangor Isooed, marched to their I -bloody fate at the hunda of the Sax on savages. The mingling of major and minor phrases is one of the in ternal evidences of age. A fine mar tial tread sounds through each measure, combined with the spirit of exalted piety, and the rhythm boldly parnta the long procession of white cowled monks bearing peace ful banners and in faith taking their way to Chester to stimulate tho valor of their countrymen away back in the seventh century.-Look er "On.
