Itildodlua Dynamite la the Moat Tre niciidoiie Force lu Kiletence. When dynamite explodes It leavca little to mark tlio spot where It baa tain save evidences of Its dostructlve ness. Two Interesting exhibits of Its forco nro shown In the Hterens Inrtl tuto of Technology at Iloboken, N. J. They nro steel blocks, six Inches In diameter and four Inches thick, show ing respectively the Imprcaslon of nn oak leaf and the Imprint of the head line of a western newspaper. It was during a test of high explosives thnt n cnrtrldgo of dynamlto waa placed on a nowapnper covering the block of steel, tho object being to aco how much dynamlto would be required to split tho metal. Tho dynamite was flrcd without In jury to the steel, but to the surprise of the experimenter the print of the newspaper was deeply pressed Into the metal. Hie experiment was repeated, with the anme result and then w-is elaborated by trying the charge on an oak leaf placet! betwoen the block and tho dynamite. This time tho stem and tho ribs of the leaf were deeply Im pressed In the metal. "What happens Is this," said the rx pert In charge. "Unlike most other ex plosives, dynamite exerts practically all Its crushing force downward nnd not In a general direction. Bo Incon ceivably quick and forceful Is tho dis charge of this powder that the Imprint of tho ribs of an oak leaf are mad be fore the tear has time to b blown to atoms. In tbo case of the newspaper It appears that where prlnter'a Ink touches the paper tho paper Is harden ed and more capable of resistance thau lu other places, nnd so It is that beforo tho pnper is destroyed tho printing on It Is forced deep Into tho metal."

Whistler's amusing personal conceit was charmingly displayed on ono c rnslon when A. fl. I'lowden, a Ixintlon liollce magistrate, attended a private view at tho Grosvenor Hallery. "Al most the first frlond I met," he says, "was Whistler, and he very good-naturedly took me up to a full-length portrait which he wns exhibiting of Udy Archibald Campbell. After I bad done my beat to express my hum ble appreciation of a beautiful picture, I aaked him If there were any other pictures which he would advise me to look at. 'Other pictures,' said Whistler, In a tone of horror; 'other plcturesl There are no other pictures! You are through!' " The list of silent great men Is a long one. Kspeclnlly Is this true of noted warriors. Wallensteln, Wellington, Von Moltke, Grant. Marlborough, Charlemagne, Hannibal, Caessr, all gave their orders In ns few words ns possible, and demanded like brevity from their subordinates. It la said that Marlborough never allowed more than n minute for a verbal report, and It Is told of Von Moltk that when an aide-de-camp brought a written message that France had declared war, the great general simply ordered It filed lu the "second pigeon-hols on the right, first tier." In that pigeon hole were completo plans for the successful campaign that followed. Here Is an anecdote which William Dean Howells tells of his first personal recognition as a writer: "Years ago, one evening after a day of lonely sight seeing In Montreal, I returned to the hotel whero I was stopping, and con sulted the register In the hope of find ing the name of some acquaintance. I was disappointed, and, turning away, I met two well-dressed young men, who embraced tho register eagerly, nnd, presently, one ot them said, to tny great surprise and Joy: 'Hello, Tom! Here's Howells.' 'Ohl I exclaimed, turning toward them, 'I was Just look ing for some one I knew. I'm glad to see you. I bopo you're some fellows who know mel" 'Only through your contributions to the Saturday Press," they replied. It was the first personal recognition of my work as an author that I had ever received from a stran ger, and the words were golden." THEATER8 OF OLD COUNTRY. In Many Cities They Are Controlled hx the Government. The recent theater horror In Chicago bns turned the attention of the country toward theaters In general and numer ous cities are hurrying to "get their housos In order" that such a catastro phe may not occur to them, says the Municipal Journal and Engineer. It would speak bolter for these cities If they did not need such prompting. In many cities on the continent the opera tion of theaters Is not left to private concorns, but the municipalities have erected the playhouses or subsidized them, and this Idea Is gradually spreading. In Vienna the court theaters were erected by the state on state lands and consist of two buildings for different phases of the drama. The opera house for operas, ballets and concerts, cost In tho neighborhood of $2,548,075, while th Ilurg Theater, for tho drama Itself, cost (03,530. These theaters are the property of the Emperor's treasury and aro maintained by the lord cham berlain's department, and whenever the revenue does not cover the ex penses the Emperor's civil list makes up the difference. The chamberlain's department assumes no responsibility In extending the grant, which Is looked after by the Hungarian government Besides the state grants, the Iloyal Opera House and other theaters In Budapest receive different grants from thestate and other smaller grants from tho city. The provincial towns of Hun gary assist theater, managers by al lowing free use of buildings and help ing to defray cost of heating and light ing. Belgium grants subsidies to com posers, whoso works aro produced In a Belgium thoster, and, In addition, subsidies aro given to composers pro ducing their works In French, Flemish or Walloon. Most of the cities sub sidize or own several theaters, somo are given rent free, and In most of them the scenery and furniture belong to tho town. At Sophia, Bulgaria, the city Is to erect a theater as soon as enough mon ey Is accumulated from the state lot tery. In Franco, tho four national thea ters occupy the buildings rent free, but thoy must pay the taxes, provide for maintenance and allow larger repairs to be made by the state without claim for damages through Interruption. An annual subsidy Is granted to each the ater by the national parliament, ware houses aro provided for storing scenery. The three largest tiieaters must submit to regulation ot tbo choice of pieces produced, prices of scats, number ot performances, as well as tht number of new pieces per year, s the minimum numbor ot artists of each class In the company, the auditing of accounts by tho Minister of Finance. In tho case of the company called tho Corned! Francalse, It manages Its In terests under state supervision, but some great work must be put on every month, or two smaller works nowly wrltton or revised, Including somo pieces by living authors. All the other theaters aro freo from atnto control, although other towns grant subsidies. A largo number of musical societies receive encouragement from tho cities by grants and medal for good work. In Berlin tho royal Prussian opera house and playhouse rccclvo together tho sum of 1270,000 and tho Innd on which they stand belongs to the sUte. Only ono thenter In Home, Italy, he longs to the city, hut In Florence, the municipal hand receives 300 a year and further small sums for tho music stand nnd maintenance. Milan owns part of one of her theaters and sub sidies nre given others. Lisbon has two theaters owned hy the state, one having been erected In 1703 by private subscriptions. There are three state tiieaters at St Petersburg nnd threo at Moacow main tnlncd at the expenae of the Emperor. In tlio principal towns are tiieaters es tablished by the state and In which are produced dramas for the education of the people. The prices are very low. At St. Petersburg, Warsaw and Klcff the temperance societies maintain these popular theaters, but are granted subsidies, the amounts In the first named city totaling over 11,500,000 dur ing the last five years. BOOKMARK WITH A STORY, It Waa Once Used br I-obtjrlat and Telle Qneer Btorjr, Tlie Ban Francisco land grabVis' methods of conveying bribe money to employes of the Isnd office recalls the manner In which a certain lobbyist out West used to make It "worth while' for legislators to vote as be wished. V Bible society had placed a copy of the scriptures In each room of every hotel In the State. Whenever the lobbyist wished to bribe a member of the leg islature be would invite htm to bis room and, after going over all the le gitimate arguments In favor of hli measure, would ask If the legislator had ever read the book of Job. It was a fairly safe guess that he bad not but even If he bad not It made no differ ence. "It is a wonderful story," the lobby ist wonld say, "and I think you would And It profltoble to read It" Then ho would place the Bible In his guest's hand, bidding him read Job while be, the lobbyist stepped out for a few mo ments. "How do you like it as far as you have read?" he would ask when be re turned. , If the legislator said he liked It 'the lobbyist knew that the bank note which he had previously placed be tween the leaves at the beginning of the book of Job was of a satisfactory denomination. They used to tell the story out theic that legislator once took the money and then voted against the lobbyist's measure, whereupon the lobbyist frightened him Into giving back the money by threatening to prosecute him for grand larceny. And, sure enough, It was nothing less, for the lobbyist bad not said a word to lndl cnto that be meant to have the legis lator take the money, and, of course, a man has a right to use a $1,000 hill as a bookmark If he wants to. Brook lyn Eagle. Fair Play. . During the reform riots In Hyde Park, London, in 18(10, the mob, on a well-remembered night began tearing down the fences of Hyde Park for tires and barricades. Colonel Thomas Went worth Hlgglnson tells In tho Atlantic Monthly of an English officer who was dining with a friend, all unconscious of the Impending danger. Presently ho received a summons from the War Department telling him that bis regi ment was ordered out to deal with the mob. He hastened back to his own house, but when be called for bis horse he found that his Bervant had received permission to go out for tho evening, and bad the key of the stable In bis pocket The officer hastily donned his uniform, and then had to proceed on foot to the Guards' Armory, which lay on the other side of Hyde Park. Walk ing hastily lu that direction, he came out unexpectedly at the very neadquar ters of the mob, where they were al ready piling up the fences. His uniform was recognized, and nn gry shouts arose. It must have seemed for the moment to the mob that the Lord had dellvoted their worst enemy Into their hands. There was but ono thing to be done. He made hts way straight toward the center of action, and called to a man who was mounted on the pile, and was evidently the leader of the tumult: "I say, my good man, my regiment has been called out by ber Majesty's orders. Will you glvo me a hand over this pile?" The mail hesitated a minute, and then said with decision, "Boys, the gentleman Is right He is doing his duty, and wo have no quarrel with him. Lend a hand and help him over." This was promptly done with entire respect and the officer In his brilliant uniform went hastily on his way amid threo cheers from the mob. Then' the mob returned to Its work, to complete It If possible beforo he whom they bad aided should come back at the head of his regiment, and perhaps order them to be shot down.
