Too Q u ic k With Scorn.
That marvelous story of the British
expedition to New Guinea, with Its
discovery <* • new pygmy race, re
minds a writer that In the past stay-at.
home people have sometimes erred tn
treating travelers' tales with scorn.
There was. for instance, the descrip
tion by James Bruce In 1770 of the
barbarous Abyssinian custom of eat.
lng raw meat cut from the living ani
mal which was ridiculed by everybody.
Yet Bruce has even recently been
proved right. When Paul Du rihalllu
explored equatorial Africa In 1M1 and
described the wonderful gorillas and
also the nation of dwarfs there he was
discredited none too politely by the
British Royal Geographical society
Yet subsequent explorers amply vindi
cated bla veracity.

Mean Trick to Play on Rival.
A characteristic anecdote Is told of
Cherubini, the most jealous of the Ir-
| rttable genus of composers. He had
{ been prevailed upon to be present at
the first representation o f the work of
a confrere, and, during the first acts,
which were much applauded by the
public, he had kept a gloomy slleoee.
The third act was less favorably re
ceived, and a certain passage especial
ly seemed to cast a cold blanket over
the spectators, when the old maestro,
j to the astonishment of his friends, was
seen to applaud heartily
"Do yon
really like that duo?" asked one of
them; *1 should have thought It was
j one of the poorest and coldest In the
whole opera.” "You Idiot,” answered
the maestro, with genuine naivete,
“don’t you see that If I did not applaud
•t he might possibly, cut Jt out?"
