The conversation of a little group ran 'the other evening on the odd replies that people often make through misunder-standin- g other people's remarks; and one of the company told a story of a humil-iating circumstance of this sort of which he was once the victim. It happened quite a number of years ago, when the hero was a younger man than he is now, and when it was the fashion, if one had ladies at the theatre, to take them to Copeland's to supper afterwards. This young man had taken two young ladies to the theatre, and when ho entered the restaurant with them it was with the determination to do the wildly magnifi-cent thing, and so distinguish himself before the ladies and all the other people in the place, that young men usually have on such occasions. But before he ordered he wished to consult the young ladies' preference. lie bent toward them and remarked softly: . "What shall it be?" The tall young waitress who stood bo--' tind tho chair must have heard the lart word and caught a familiar sound in it, for she spoke up, quite at the lop of bar voice and loud enough to be heard all Over the restaurant: "We're all out of beans!" And it was quite out of the young Man's power to get a publio reputation for magnificence that night Boston , Transcript. Mr. Tanderbllt's Picture. There seems a certain confusion as to the Venetian picture by Turner which Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt has purchased. That he has bought it and paid the splen-did price of a hundred thousand dollars for it there is no doubt, but we may re-ceive with a very large grain of salt the rumor that the millionaire was ambitious of acquiring Heissonier's "Itixe," which is one of the ornaments of Windsor, and that be actually offered the queen half a million dollars for it. The fact that the rumor came around by way of Paris is sufficient reason for fighting shy of it. The art of "faking" originated in Paris, where it had already attained colossal grandeur before the first American jour-nal had been printed at Boston. Whichever of. the Qrand canal pictures by Turner Mr. Vanderbilt has bought he has got a good one. Turner understood Venetian color, and had a peculiar pro-cess of his own, taken from the early Flemish school, and made his own by tho extraordinary manner in which he applied it for rendering the exquisitely luminous atmospheres of the "Queen of the Adriatic." And he was true as true as any mortal can be in the ever vary-ing, evanescent glories of sea and sky. Ituskin hit it when ho said of Turner, after accusing him of "exaggerating all he saw," that the foundation of all he did was truth. Tho vivid and warm colorings of nature he painted with the deepest reds and yellows; the grays he attempted to imitate with blues of too strong a tint; yet the whole was trne in principle, both in general and in particu-lar. Cor, Boston Journal. Thieving In China. According to a Chinese story a miser lad three sons-in-la- one was a tailor, another a jeweler, and the third a spend thrift, who did nothing at all. One day the miser called his third .son-in-la- and said to him: "See herel Your two brothers-in-la-are thrifty men, and are gradually add ing to the family fortune; the tailor, by cabbaging a little of his customers' cloth now and then, you know bless you, they don't know it! and the jeweler by well, by debasing the jewelry just a little, don't you see. But you !" exclaimed the miser, "what do you do?" J'Father-in-law,- " said the ne'er-do-we- "you say well. Give me a crow-ba- r; I will go out, and, watching my chance, I will break in merchants' doors, epen their tills, and bring you back thousands of pieces of silver whero my brothers-in-la- bring you only paltry gains." ' "What! How?' exclaimed the miser, in terrible anger; fcan it be possible that you would actually be a Uuef?" Boston Herald. A Suuit's Skull. A saint's skull is soon to form the sub-ject of an action of law at Lyons. The saint in question is Jean Soanen, who was bishop of Seuez, in tho department of Basses-Alpe- during the reign of Louis Quinze. The skull was for many years iu tho possession of an ancient family, whose scion, however, disposed of it a short time ago with some old lumber to a local dealer in bric-a-bra- He was at a loss to know what to do with the skull, when a broker, hearing of his dilemma, bethought of a devout lady-o- ne of his customers who happened to be the proprietor of the lower jaw of the self same saint. The broker conducted the lady to tho shop, and a bargain was concluded whereby, on the payment of 40, she became the possessor of this ad-ditional relic. After tho lady had quit-ted tho house in triumph, with the bish-op's skull neatly packed up, the broker claimed half the money as the intro-ducer, and, the dealer having refused to hand over move thanfl, he is bringing the matter before the law courts.

African Musical Instruments. f "It fa rather curious to notice that all the instruments originally identified with negro minstrelsy h ave come from Africa." "The bones and tambourine, too?" "Yes. Both tambourine and bones, or castanets, were brought into Spain from Africa by the Moors. They are both savage instruments, almost unmodified. The funniest and most primitive musical instrument I ever heard of, however, I saw used by a darky down in Florida, who laid one horny and previously licked forefinger on the edge of a table and sawed across it back and forth with a round stick. ' The table served as a sound-ing board, and at each stroke of the stick across the finger a long drawn, lugubrious note of some loudness was produced. It did the bass for an orchestra at a negro party consisting besides of a banjo and a tambourine." Interview jn "Washing-o- n Star. Ko Chance for Damages.
