▲t a certain
gathering last rammer a lectarer, at
the opening of his address, came to
the front of the platform and took a
•mall vial from his pocket
Uj friends,” he said, "before I be
gin my address, I wish to test the ven
tilation of this andltoiiam. I am go
ing to poor oof thtOvOll of peppermint.
When the odor reaches you, raise your
hands, so that I may see bow rapidly
It travels.”
He emptied the vial, and almost In
stantly several hands on the front
benchee went up; then farther back
the hands began to go up by the
dosens, until at last the people In the
last seats caught the odor, and raised
their hands.
The lecturer thanked his auditors,
and went on with his address. When
he had almost finished, and was speak
ing of the effect of the imagination on
our senses, he paused, and said with a
smile that It was only clear water he
had poured out of his vlaL
The audience had been caught so
neatly that even those who had held
up their hands Joined In the laugh.
But one illiterate fellow, whose hand
had gone up more promptly and em
phatically than any other, did not quite
understand.
“What they laughin' at?” he asked,
audibly, of the man sitting beside him.
"Why,” explained the man. "you did
not smell peppermint at all; It was
only Imagination.”
"Well." maid the other. “I knowed It
was somethin' that smelled mighty
strong.”—Youth's Companion.

A murder was committed In Naples,
Italy. Signor Lancaul, a single gentle-
nan living In apartments, was the vic
tim. and since he was well off and food
of display he had considerable jewelry
—for a man—which was taken. The po
lice learned of the missing articles so
far as they could be determined and
gave a description of them to Gluseppl
Varllll, a member of the carabinieri,
or national police, who was given the
case to make out of it what he could.
There was missing one gold chronom
eter watch, two gold chains, a number
of shirt studs and other articles of
similar character. The assassin and
robber In making his exit had dropped
a link sleeve button on the floor. They
make in Italy of pink coral exquisite
adornments, and this single sleeve but
ton was twin roses of the most deli
cate carving, set in gold.
Varllll looked at It admiringly. "Who
ever has the mate to It," he said, ‘‘will
scarcely be able to refrain from wear
ing It, so beautiful Is it. If he had it
as well as Us mate, he will surely be
tray himself on account of It." How
ever. the officer put it In his veet pocket
with the vague expectation that it
might lead to a clew.
The murder had been committed at
an hour when a number of persons , only $40.00.
were about, but do one could be found

Of Course.
A New York dramatic writer tells
of an actress of great popularity who
is Just beginning to he obsessed with
the notion that the public holds her
to be older than she really it.
The writer was assigned to Inter
view this player. He wished to ob
tain her views with reference to the
state of the drama, a topic whereon
the actress did not seem particularly
anxious to decant
“It does not seem to me,” gently
suggested the Interviewer, with a
smile, "that I am really ascertaining
your opinion. You ought to he frank,
since your eyes are gray and—"
"Prematurely so, my dear boy, pre
maturely so,” the actress hastened to
assure him.—Judge.
Walking at Billiards.
"I figure out," said one of the bil
liard experts playing in the champion
ship games, “that I walk three miles
when I play 400 points. Of course,
sometimes I do less than that, pro
vided my average runs by nursing are t0
larger. When I can keep the balls
closely together for a good run, that
lessens the distance I have to walk.”
This cue artist said he once made
100 points and did not circle the table
half a dozen times. More amaxlng
still wap the assertion that he had
seen the late Jacob Schaefer run ISO
points without going even once entire
ly around the table.

looked at him with a pair of auspicious
eyes from under the rim of hla hat,
evidently not relishing hla movement.
“Ikin't disturb yourself," snld Varllll.
"I think I have seen you In Berlin.
Are you not Herr Berhoff, a brewer?"
"1 have ueva been In Berlin in ma
life,” snld the other, showing by his
speech that he was an Italian, “and I
am not a brewer."
"Then I have been mistaken," said
Varllll, who had desired to get closer
to the man and hear him speak. "Now
that I see those beautiful coral studs
you wear I take it you are from Italy.
I have never seen such carving as that
except In Naples."
At this the man changed counte
nance, Involuntarily drawing his coat
over his shirt front. Then he glanced
about him as If looking for an exit.
“1 am from Naples myself," Varllll
went o.n saying. “I know exactly
where those studs came from. There
Is a shop In Naples facing the bay
where they are «old. I have a pair of
roses composing a link sleeve button”—
The man glared and, rising, stood at
bay. Varllll put his hand in his vest
pocket, took out the sleeve button and
held it up before the other.
“In a public music hall,” he contin
ued, “In the center of London it will be
At the
slightest commotion policemen will
come. If you will go quietly with me
there need be no disturbance."
A week from that evening Varllll
delivered his prisoner, who turned oat

the murderer of Lancanl, to the au
thorities at Naples. Ha waa condemn
