COROT SAVED THE TILE.
He Turned High Hat Tragedy Into
Work of Art " i
An Interesting relic of Corot la to b
seen In the gallery of a picture dealer ,
in me cuumpa ttiysees. it takes too
form of a woodeu frame Inclosing a
gray high hut of a style "now forgot
ten quite." A curd explains thut "this
landscape lu the vrowu of the bat Is
guaranteed to be a genuine work of
Corot"
One sees io the but a ruptd study off
the artist The artist has utilized the
blue silk lining of the hat to improvise
a beautiful sky of summer reflected In
the peaceful water below. Upon the
bank are three trees and a picturesque
Saracen tower, while white clouds
among the blue complete the scene.
Readers must not Jump to the conclu
sion that this hat landscape is an ex
ample of the eccentricity of genius. ' It
Is the result of whut appeared to be
the fngedy of a "white" bat which
belonged to a friend of the muster.
The friend, calling on Corot, happened
to pluce bis brand Dew bat near the
eusel. in extending the bund Corot'o
brush fell Into the bat, leaving an in
delible mnrk.
A cry of despair followed, not ex
actly that which a high uutborlty has
told us Is uttered when husbands or
lap dogs breathe their last, but never
theless it was a despairing cry, "My
hat is spoiled!"
"Not at all." said Corot. bursting into
a hearty laugh. "1 will soon put that
all right" The painter brushed away
the daub caused by the accident, and
In a few minutes the picture was com
plete, and the owner of the bat left the
studio with a much more valuable
cbapeau than that with which be en
tered. Londun Globe.
THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
It Ha Frequently Expelled Member
Legally Qualified to Sit.
Tbe assumption made In more than
one daily Journal that the bouse of
commons cannot expel a member who
is "legally" qualified to sit Is not war
ranted by precedent, tbe only authori
ty to which the commons bow. says an
English writer. .
In the eighteenth century the south'
sea bubble caused many expulsions, al
though the members' defense bad not
been heard in the law courts. One of
the victims was Chancellor of tbe Ex
chequer Alslable, credited with having
bagged 250,000 from the public, in
addition to expulsion, be was sent to
tbe Tower and ordered to refund bis
booty.' An Irish peer was expelled for
directing a lottery, while for organiz
ing a "charitable association" of shady
habits Sir Robert Sutton and two oth
ers were shut out in 1730. Steele of
tbe Tatler was prohibited the bouse
for "maliciously insinuating that the
Protestant succession in the bouse of
Hanover is in danger under her maj
esty's administration." "
But perhaps the oddest reason for
closing tbe doors of tbe bouse of com
mons upon a man is to be found In tbe
case of Mr. Asglll, whose sin was that
of writing a treatise "On the Possi
bility of Avoiding Deatb."-Phlladel-phia

BIRDS' NEST SOUP.
Getting the Material and Preparing It
For the Feast.
Uninitiated people ure apt to think
if birds' nest soup ns n most disgust
iiiK slew of twigs, feathers and what
nut. As a matter of fact, the nest
used by the Chinese Is n very delicate,
eniili:insini,ent. gelautlnous substance
litillt by the swallow-like birds known
as the Kul.-ingnne. The nests are found
In the Islands about Slum and the Ma
lay archipelago, nnd the harvest In a
year will be about 18,000 pounds, val
ued nt over $100,000. It used to be
thought that the nest was formed of
inspissated saliva secreted by the high
ly developed glands of the bird. Now
It is known that the nest Is made of a
species of alga gathered by the bird.
The season for harvesting the nests
lasts from April until September. It
takes three months to build the first
best and Just before the epgs are laid
tbe nest is stolen by the collector. Tho
bird Immediately sets about tho build
ing of a second nest, taking thirty days
for the work. This Is also stolen be
fore the eggs are laid. The third nest
however. Is unmolested' and the birds
nre permitted to rnlse their young,
after which the nest Is taken and sold.
In preparing birds' nest soup the nest
Is washed In cold water and then cook
ed for eight hours in n closed vessel,
after which It Is mixed with chicken
broth, seasoned and boiled for it quar
ter of an hour. Occidentals who have
tried the soup find It palatable nnd
much resembllns chicken soup. Chi

Regarding the return of the globe
trotters, last Sunday's Oregonian re
marks, touching upon the scintillating
career of MIbs Fellcle Lyne:
Dr. and Mrs. F. E. Moore have re-'
turned from their trip to Europe, and
are able to give more particulars of
the remarkable vocal and operatic tri
umph won by their nelce, Miss Felicia
Lyne, at the Hammersteln opera house.
in London. England, an event which
was recently reviewed In the Oregon-
Ian. Dr. and Mrs. Moore lived for sev
eral years at La Grande before they
made this city their home, and say
that Miss Lyne has been their guest
guest' there. The Lyne family Is a
southern one, although Miss Lyne was
born In Kansas City, Mo. Miss Lyne
; is 20 years old, weighs Just 92 pounds
and stands 5 feet 2 Inches. Her voice
is a lyric soprano, and she has been
trained to be a singer since she was a
baby'. Vocally, she 1b a pupil of (Mar
chesl, of Paris, and Lloyd D'AuvIgne
who was once a granj opera Blnger of
considerable celebrity, but who, by
illness, lost his voice, and then taught
singing In Paris. Dr. and Mrs. Moore,
who have Interested themselves In
Miss Lyne's studies, have Just received
this letter from D'AuvIgne, who heard
Miss Lyne, his pupil, In her London
.operatic Buccess: "It was beyond any
thing that any of us ever dreamed of.
The child was perfectly self-possessed
and from her first note held the pub
lic absolutely spell bound. In the sec
ond act, she received seven recalls and
in the third act, eight recalls, with
loads of bouquets. At the end, the
public refused to leave and called her
out again and again, with cheers, and
bravos. It was Melba 20 years ago,
and it was what everyone Bald all
around us. It repaid me for so much
that has been hard and cruel In my
own life. If I can use all that I have
spent 20 years of my life in acquiring,
I have at lenst been able' to pass It on
to her. So my work has not been In
vain'. How I wished you could have
been there."
Miss Lyne her name is pronounced
as if it were written "Line" sang last
season as a regular soloist at the Man-
hatton (Hammersteln) opera house, In
New York City. She has mastered
these roles In opera nnd has already
appeared In many of them: Gllda, In

"Tales of Hoffman"; Juliet in "Romeo

Breaking the established rule of
conducting dancing parties until mid
night, the "Knights of the Single
Life" a newly formed social club of
young men last Thursday evening
found It necessary to prolong the
splendidly enjoyable evening until 1
o'clock a. m. and a greater majority of
the many couples present remained
until the finale piece. Eight young men
gave the party, which by the way, Is
the first of saveral, and it was
something In the nature of a retalia
tion to the Milem club and with the
umart pace set by the Milem club had
a hard row to hoe, expressing It In
the homely phrase, to keep abreast
with the fun always provided by the
Milem ladles. But the verdict must
be that the young men breasted , the
Milem and added one more social
event of far more than ordinary popu
larity to the string of thusly described
Informal dancing parties at the Elks'
auditorium this winter.' The music
satisfied everybody and If anyone did
not enjoy himself the. complexion of
his face Is unknown. , The knights of
