A Vtaltor Who Warn Terribly Seared During
a Call at the White Ho vs.
Colonel Clark E. Can of Calesbur,
who was minister to Denmark under the
Harrison administration, was in Wash
ington one day when Linooln waa presi
dent "I'm going to the White House to
aee Abe," said Owen Lovejoy to Carr as
they met in front of the treasury build
ing. Carr went with him. They were
shown into the president's working
room, and soon after Linooln came in.
He wore a long garment which might
hare been cat from a bathroom pattern
or the cover of a prairie schooner. His
hair was more froozeled than usual,
and the carpet slippers were worn down
and without heels. The condition and
appearance of the presidential ho
siery were such as would have made
Jerry Simpson envious, provided the
stories they told on Jerry were true,
which they never were. The president
gave his callers an Illinois greeting
and then shoved up one of the sleeves
of bis curious garment and pointed out
to his visitors the inflamed condition of
his arm.
"You knew I had the smallpox, " said
Lincoln in a cold blooded manner. Love
joy said yes and proceeded to talk about
other matters, while Can's few hairs
had inclinations to stand up, and he
moved about in his chair as if it con
tained dynamite. The visit over, the
caller passed out. Once in the air, Clark
asked Lovejoy:
"Did yon know the president had the
smallpox when we went there?"
"Certainly," was the answer.
"Yon d d scoundrel!" shrieked
Can. "Why didn't you say so?"
"I've had it, " replied Lovejoy, "and
I supposed you had. "
"WelL I never had it!" roared Can.
"But if I do have it now I want yon to
give me a certificate that I caught the
disease from Abe Lincoln. That will be
something. "
But Lovejoy bad no occasion to do so,
as Lincoln had the varioloid only. Chi

' Captala McKay and His Paaeeasrera.
The fact is that the excellent captain
of the Umbria, Captain McKay, was a
little more open with his passengers th in
was quite prudent. With the laudable
desire of sparing them any unnecessary
anxiety, he informed them plainly of the
cause of the stoppage of their course and
genially assured them of their perfect
safety. So far, so good. The passengers
bad a ngbt to ask that much, and it was
but sensible to let them know the tmtb
and not imagine worse things for them.
tel ves. But what the passengers had ni
right to ask for was information as to
the course that the captain was going to
pnrsne. and Captain McKay made
mistake in not snubbing the first gentle
man who questioned him on the subject.
Why don't you send np rockets?" ona
of the passengers is said to have plain
tively demanded. "There will be time
rnongh for rockets when a vessel comes
near enough to see them," answered the
captain evasively, but courteously. ,
The politeness was fatal. After the
implied admission that rockets and other
ships were necessary to their salvation
the passengers had a ternmc hold upon
the unlucky commander of the ship.
Had he only answered, as he would
have been perfectly justified in doing
and as a great -many other captains
would certainly have done, "What busi-
ts that of yours he might have
made himself a little unpopular, but hi!
would have saved himself from much
further wony. The passengers seem to
have actually divided themselves into two
different camps and discussed a vote of
confidence or censure. Happily com
m on sense carried the day, and a vote of
confidence was carried. What would
have been done had the vote of censure
been passed we cannot guess, but this
at least we may say that if that motion
had been carried it would have been the
plain duty of the captain to put the
mover, seconder and principal supporters
of the resolution in irons. London Spec

HOW SOME PEOPLE GET BIG DIS
COUNTS IN NEW YORK CITY.
Saved bj a Husle Box.
W. A. Meany. bookkeeper for Joseph
A Duffy, had nn exciting experience
with burglars at his house early Monday
morning. He is but recently married,
and among his wedding presents was
inusio box. lo this happy circumstance
be attributes the fact that the burglars
did not succeed in carrying off every
thing in bis home.
One of the burglars in rummaging
through his drawing room stumbled
across the package of stored music, and
thinking probably that it contained jew-
ilry or silverware attempted to open it
In doing so he set the music machine in
motion, and presently Mr. Meany was
roused from his slumbers by the touch
ing strains of "Auld Lang Syne": Mr.
Meany got his gun and started for the
burglars, and they started for a window.
He arrived at the drawing room doorway
just in time to see two burglars leaping
from the window. ' He fired, but the
robbers continued their flight. One of !
them stumbled in getting over the front !

Lines of Trade la the Metropolis, Tee
Can Bavo Hundreds of Dollar Kverv
tear If Too tiny Right.
One of the curiosities of retail business
in New York is the system of discounts
granted to all sorts of persons and Tor all
sorts of reasons. Nobody has ever dis
covered the point at which discounts
cease in the book trade. Some retail
booksellers frankly quote the publishers
price, and beside tt tue selling price,
which is from 15 to S3 per cent less,
Those who know the ropes never buy
books without claiming the discount.
There are special discounts to clergymen.
to authors, to artists, to teachers, and
generally to what somebody has called
the academic classes. After that there
are still greater discounts to a few other
favored persons. There are men who pro
fess to buy books in small quantities at
40 per cent below publishers prices.
What is true of books is true of almost
everything else that is bought and sold.
When the article is s costly one, the dis
count gets to be absurdly large. The
trade in diamonds and jewels, among a
peculiar class of dealers, is a thing with
out bottom. Nobody can tell where the
discounts cease, since such things pass
from band to hand at prices governed
often by the needs of temporarily em
barrassed seller.
In the piano trade, in which there
were recently rumors of combination.
the matter of discounts has become
byword. It is doubtful whether any
one ever buys a piano at catalogue
price. One firm advertises pianos at
from t&O to $1,200, according to quality.
but delivers them in New York at from
450 to 800 that is, to the ordinary
customer. There is further reduction
of 10 per cent to teachers or to persons
buying two or more pianos. One linn
advertises the "list price of square
pianos at $1,000; price by installment.
$350; price for cash, $300. Yon may
buy a grand piano at any price from
$700 to $1,800. But nobody pays the
latter price, since the same piano may be
bad for the asking at $1,300. Upright
pianos are catalogued at prices varying
from $430 to $1,900, but they may be bad
for cash at from $373 to $1,043.
A few dealers of well established rep
utation resist the system of discounts.
but all sorts of insiduous methods of ap
proach are employed, and the price is
seldom insisted npon.. Some dealers
gravely exhibit books showing the record
of sales and prices, and protest that there
is no departing from rates. These books
however, do not show the fact that in
many instances secondhand pianos have
been taken in part payment at a high
appraisement When a piano dealer has
reached the last ditch and made a defiant
stand, the device of demanding a high
appraisement on a secononand piano
given in part payment usually fetches
him. The receipted bill always shows
that the new piano has been placed at
the full rate with the usual discount
The devices of manufacturers with re
putations yet to make are almost of a
desperate sort With the slightest en
conragement they will place pianos on
trial in any respectable looking house or
apartment The unwilling purchaser re
ceives profuse assurances of esteemed
consideration and is prayed to be at ease
as to the tame of full payment Any rea
sonable demand as to terms is conceded
and the seller seems so anxious for noth
tag as to add another debtor to his list,
The result of all this is that no careful
person purchases a piano without taking
advice. He goes about it solemnly as he
would in buying a horse or a house or in
taking a wife. When the purchaser's
own powers of persuasion have been ex
hausted, he calls in a music teacher and
gets a further reduction or purchases
through a friend who has recently
bought for himself. Sometimes the'
music teacher gets a commission all to
himself. When the music teacher is not
successful in obtaining the most favor
able terms, some person in a kindred line
of business to that of the piano dealer is
invoked, and the purchase is finally made
at from $300 to $800 under schedule
price.
The opposite phenomenon is observed
in the sewing machine trade. Since the
original patents expired all sorts of in
dispensable appliances have been patent
ed, and the manufacturers and dealers in
the best machines exact the uttermost
penny for these latter. In some instance
a device costs 10 times the price at which
it can be produced, and all the various ap
purtenances taken together make np
large percentage of the price at which
the machine is sold. Even secondhand
machines "complete" are held at stiff
rates.
To the trade on some articles of house
furnishing there is seemingly no bottom
price. Women, who are notoriously the
best bargainers, go to wholesale houses
and npon one pretext or another obtain
discounts that bring prices far below re
tail prices. Dealers cheerfully send ar
tides miles in the country on trial, take
back slightly damaged goods, pack and
repack and at length smilingly accept
payment with all sorts of discounts.
What Is true of new furniture is still
truer of secondhand and antique ar
tides. In this trade there is no fixed dis
count, thongb surface prices are siugn
lariv uniform. Whether the shop be in
Fifth avenue or in Canal street the prices
asked are much the same. New York

One eminent scientist has been amus
ing hiiusulf of lute by making imitation
spider webs out of quart libera It is
well known that copper wire can be
drawn to a fineness much less than the
thickness of a hair in fact, to the di
ameter of the one-thousandth part of an
inch. But gloss may be spun iiuor thou
copper, while even the finest spun glass
is nut so line as silk fiber. The latter,
however, is coarse compared with the
threads that can be obtained by melting
quarts under a blowpipe and pulling it
out Such threads may be reduced to a
thinness of ono-milliouth of an luck
Drawn to such tenuity,, they are invisi
ble under a microscope of the highest
power. Yet they are stronger in propor
tion to, their thickness than the best
quality of bar steel Enough thread like
this could be mode from a single cnbio
inch of quarts to go around the world
638 times. A grain of sand barely large
enough to be visible to the naked eye
would yield 1,000 miles of thread.
Obviously no practical use can be
made of threads so extremely fine.
Comparatively coarse ones were woven
into cobwebs by the scientist aforesaid.
They would not catch flies because they
were too slippery, having no gluten on
them, like real cobwebs. This difficulty
was got over by moistening a straw in
castor oil and gontly stroking the threads
with it; then the wobs capturod flies
fairly well But a cobweb is incomplete
without a spider, so it occurred to the
experimenter to attract an arachnid to
his web by the buzzing of a fly. It was
difflonlt to moke a fly buzz to order, but
a satisfactory imitation was produced
by permitting a tuning fork to vibrate
against the quarts fibers. This fetched
the spider right away. The scientist also
amused himself with blowing bubbles
of quartz, which looked exactly like
the most beautiful soap bubbles.
