Mark Twain Hissed the Boat.
The success achieved by .\ark Twain
during his boating days on the Missis
sippi river was due not only to the fact
that he was a skillful pilot, but that he
was an earnest one as well. A man
who knew Mr. Clemens in those days
told how the genial humorist once
missed his boat. Instead of inventing
an excuse, as many of his companions
.did, he reported to his superior officer
as follows:
"My boat left at 6:10. I arrived at
the landing at 6:20 and could not catch
it."
As It Is Said.

Nicholas of Russia asked Liszt to play
in his presence. The musician com
plied, but during the performance the
czar started . a conversation with an
aid-de-camp. Liszt stopped playing at
once. The czar asked what was the
matter. "When the emperor speaks,"
said Liszt, "every one must be silent"
The czar smilingly took the hint.j and
the playing proceeded.
