Condition—A Lint of Haro Vqlnmco.
Not a few orroneous Ideas exist about the
ealue of old books. In order to oorrret, some
of these misconceptions I have concluded to
toko old books for my text. I may dispel
somo pleasant illusions, hut if I do it is be
cause I can’t help it. Allow me to say in tlio
first place that ago is no criterion of value in
hooka The mere date of printing does not
fix its value, though, of course, any book In
fair condition beating dnle earlier than 1470
is worth something merely on account of its
approach to the date of the invention of
*priuting. Oil the other hand, there are books
as late in date as 1880 which aro rare and
which are much desired by a certain class of
buyers. There is no rule for knowing the
comparative value of an old book, tiecause it
may depend upon so many things, such ns
imprint, authorship, ownership, edition and
condition. A New York lady recently came
into the |K)ssessioii of a book which she sup
posed worth at least (3.000. It was a fine
large folio, in excellent condition and 250
years old. Imagine her disap|iointment when
the highest offer made her for it was (II. Its
age, site and condition didn’t count for any
thing. Tlie book wasn’t rare, and had no in
trinsic value.
“TH1 MARTVII BOOK.”
I remember the excitement which existed
some years ngo over “The Martyr Book,”
printed at Ephrata, in this state, in 1747-48.
It was noised abroad as a valuable find And
ex.-oodinsly rare. What followed then?
Why, no loss than fifty copies of it were un
earthed among the farmers of Lancaster
county alone. And what followed next? A
dead, thud like fall in quotations from 1120
to $20 a copy. The quantity depreciated the
quality; it wnsn’t exceedingly rare, after all.
It deserves fame, however, as the first large
book published in this state, and as an excel
lent product of the printers, papermakersand
binders of that period. Almost as much teal
is shown in getting possession of old books
with the Germantown imprint upon them.
The first German books in the state were
printed there. Home are rare and high priced;
others are comparitively common.
There was a scurrilous epitaph on a "Cer
tain Great Man” (Benjamin Franklin), printed
anonymously in this city about 1708. It con
sisted of hut eight pages, and yet a copy of it
brought $83 at the Brinley book sale in New
York. There were only three copies known
to he in existence. Mr. D. McN. Stauffer,
editor of The New York Engineering News,
one day picked up a pamphlet out of the dirt
in the bottom of a closet, and found himself
the possessor of one of the known three. Yon
see, if yon ore looking for rare and valuable
books, it is something to know which are rare
and why they aro valuable. ,
You are not always sure even in buying a
rare book by catalogue. I dip the subjoined
from a letter received by me to-day: “The
'German Heraldry’ is an example of the dan
ger of buying from foreign book catalogues.
I sent for the two volumes, paying a good
price for them. There was no evidence on
the title that there were three volumes, and it
was only upon plodding through the Latin
text thut I found refcrcnco to a third and
missing volume. 1 attempted to sell the
books as I 'hud received them', to the German
library in your city. There I met Professor
Oswald Biedenstucker, a very learned German
scholar, who knew all about the books and
the fact that the rare‘third volume’always
'turned up missing.’ I have tlio two volumes
yet.”
EDITIONS OK SnAKEBPEAUE.
• Among tlio rare honks are the first folio
copies of the early editions of Slinkosppnre.
The rise in their commercial vuluocau ho seen
in the following order of sale: In 1750 Gar
rick bought a copy for 21 10s.; in 1700 mt-
Atlicr copy bvouglit £40 10s.; in 1813 George
Grenville paid £121 for a copy; in 1H47 the
Hibbert copy sold for £185; in 1854 another
copy brought £270, and m 1804 the Baroness
Burdett Gouts paid £710 2s. for a copy. 1
hope tliis will not sot yov to skirmishing
around for folio copies of the early edition.
Of the first edition of “Pilgrim’s Progress,"
" printed in 1078, of which no copy hod been
discovered when Bonthoy wrote his “Life of
Bunyan,” there are two copies now known to
ho in existence. One is in (lie library of Mr.
Halford in Gloucestershire, England, and the
other in the Lenox collection in New York.
Three yean after the first Loudon edition
there was an American edition. The Inst
P'i».i on the title page were: “Boston in New
England; printed by Samuel Green upon as
signment of Samuel Bewail, and aro to be
sold by John Vslier, of Boston, 1(!81.” Thu
only known copy of this issue was stolen from
the Lenox collection. If you should find it,
or imother like It, you can lie sure that you
have found a valuable prise. The first edi

in London in 1536, is quoted ut big figures.

New York, September 24—Some of the
members of the German opera company
engaged for Dext season at the Metropoli
tan opera house, who aro now in this city,
have but one subject of couversatlou at
present, and that is the experience through
which one of their number has passed.
Nearly all of the members of the company
v hicli sang at the opera home last .season
had their re-engagements signed for the
forthcoming seuson, and many of them re
mained in the city during the summer. A
party of about twenty of the male singers
uoarded in the vicinity of the opera house
and met nightly in Herman Speer’s saloon
on Eighth avenue. Among them was
Franz Poufler, a second tenor, who was
noted for his generosity and was looked
upon as the life and soul of ail the little
social gatherings. He seemed to have
plenty of cash the first of the summer,
hut so lavish was he with Iiih funds
that oi late he ran short. His friends ob
served this, mid also noticed that his lack
of funds seemed to bother him und make
biin very down hearted. Mr. Speer ob
served this and offered any financial assist
ance thnt wun needed, hut Poufler refused
to take any money. That same evening,
while all his associates were in the place,
the tenor suddenly jumped to his feet and,
crying out “good night, ’ waived his hand
and left the saloon.
This strange behavior on his part ex
cited some comment, and when none of
bis friends saw him the next day they be-
came alarmed. Day after day passed and
still he did not show himself, and at the
end of ten days it was decided to make a
quiet search for him, as it was feared that
be might have done iomething desperate
in his despondeney. A meeting was held
and a committee chosen to make all neces
sary inquiries. For some days nothing could
be ascertained, and then a paragraph
in a morning paper, giving a description
of a drowned man at the morgue for iden
tification was seen. The description tallied
exactly with that of the missing Poufler
and the committee went to the morgue,
saw the body and at once decided that it
was that or their missing Mend. After
claiming the body they reported the sad
news to their companions.
“At once the arrangement’s for Poufler’s
funeral were begun. Manager Stanton of
the opera house was seen and requested to
take oharge of a subscription list to be cir
culated among the members of the com
pany to eolleot enough money to defray all
expenses of the burial. Last Monday night
a meeting of Poufler’s Mends was held in
Speer’s saloon. While dlsoussing the ar
rangements the door of the room opener',
and one of the members, looking up,
exclaimed: “My God I His ghost t” There,
In the doorway, with a smile on his faoe
and bis right hand extended, stood what
seemed to be the ghost of their oomrade.
That it was not a ghost was proven, how
ever, when he walked forward and in
quired after their health. After their sur
prise had passed away and they hod satis-
fled themselves that it was Indeed the
second tenor, the situation was explained
to him and all enjoyed a hearty laugh. He
then said, that owing to the exhaustion of
his funds be was forced to do something,
and Joined Gilmore’s band at Manhattan
beach. Word waa sent to Manager Stan
ton to cease receiving subscriptions, and
to-night there was a general jollification
in Speer’s saloon, and none was merrier or
happier than Poufler.

Washington, September 27. — How
swiftly time flies. It seems only a few
short uiout hs ago since the last national
convention met in Chicago, and yet ar
rangements are already in progress tor the
next convention. The last convention of
this body adopted a resolution providing
that its national committee should issue a

months in advance of the date of its
assemblage. If I ho convention meets in
June the call must he issued in January,
There is a movement, on foot to have tnc

growers of Col vert, St. Mary’s and Annie
Arundel counties have eleo suffered from
the fro9t. The tobacco yield on an average
is about 25,000 hogsheads a year. The frost
was hea- y Saturday nd Sunday night in
Washington county, Maryland and Frank
lin counties, Pennsylvania. Signs of frost
were shown at all the railroad stations and
in the mountain forests, which latter are
beginning t.o be illuminated with the rich
autumnal tints.
A Lynchburg special says the general
tenor of the dispatches here is that consid
erable damage wn3 done in all the counties
tributary to this market. The proportion
of the crop estimated to be standing varies
from one-fourth to one-third in different
localities, and it is thought that most of
this was more or less injured.

Experiment With Earth Worms.
Mr. Graber has lately made some curious
observations upon the effect of light upon
eyeless animals, a report of which appears in
the proceedings of the Vienna academy. He
put a number of cartb worms into a box,
which was provided with an aperture at one
side, through which light was allowed in
gress. The result of many experiments
showed that the worms sought the darkest
part of their temporary prison and that at
least two-fifths of their number shunned the
light. Experimenting with rays of different
colors by means of stained glass, he found
that ilio worms exhibited a marked prefer
ence for red light.—Boston Transcript

ILLINOIS DEMOCRATS FOR CLEVELAND
First Assistant Postmaster General
Stevenson has returned from his agricultu
ral pilgrimage In Illinois, and is again the
acting postmaster-general. Being asked if
he had beard much politics during his ab
sence, he replied: “Yes, I hearej many
opinions expressed, and they were all com
plimentary to theaidministratlon. I found
the people: to be well satisfied with the
manner in which the laws are carried out
by the president, and, what is more, the
farmers were enthusiastic whenever the
name of President Cleveland was mention
ed. The business men of Illinois say they
are pleased with the administration, be
cause Mr. Cleveland has been the people’s
president instead of a partisan president.”
ANYBODY BUT BLAINE.
It does not look as much like Mr. Blaine
in 1888 as it did The political situation in-
sjde of the republican camp is changing.
Six months ago it looked decidedly like
Mr. Blaine would have a walk-over for
the nomination, but I repeat that a
change has occurred. Here in Washington
the change is surprising. Republicans
who were red-hot for Blaine, are now say
ing that perhaps it would bo a mistake to
again nominate him, and republicans
with Blaine leanings are now for either
one of the Shermans, General Sheridan,
Allison, Hawley or Gresham in preference
to the plumed knight. Out in the country
the gradual diminishing of the Blaine sen
timent is noticeable. leading republi
cans are speakiugout boldly against Blaine
or any other man having a mortgage on
the presidential nomination. This change
of feeling iu significant, for it. means that
the republicans are satisfied that they can
not beat Mr. Cleveland with Mr. Blaine,
and propose to bring out another man
This is about the size of it.
AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
"Tlie president is worked up on tin
tariff question,” said a member ol congress
to ^-our correspondent to-day. “Why,”
ho continued, “1 went up t.i the white
house the other day to talk with him about,
u tua* Ter that. I fed a deep interest in, and
d—r it he wouldn’t, talk to me about any
tiling el e but the tariff. He is getting ti
bo H3 big a crank on the tariff ns the Far
aeo merchant. I finally told him that if
he ivoulu talk to me about my affair for
fivo minutes. I would vote for any tariff
reduction bill ho favored. Ho laughed at
tills proposition and I managed to get
through my sneuch, but had no sOouor
concluded than off he went on the tariff
again.”
When the proposition is made in the
next house to abolish the tax on fruit
brandies, it is going to meet with more
opposition than is now reckoned on. The
distillers will oppose it for the very good
mason that it will injure their msiness not
a little. Fruit brandy is a brandy to be
manufactured from fruit, hut if the tax is
taken off the fruit part will most entirely
disappear, aud we will have the good old
a'conoi stuff itself.
No special correspondents will accotn
pany the presidential party on its western
afid southern tour. Mr. George Jones, of
the mugwump New York Times, is espe
cially disappointed over the f-ict. He wrote
a strong personal letter to the president
imploring that he bo allowed the privilege
of sending a special representative along
with the party, and reciting to the presi
dent tho many good turns the Times had
done him since his nomination and elec
tion. The letter was oarried to the white
house by the Times special correspondent
and delivered to the president, who, after
reading it, petulantly informed the corre
spondent that he would rather abandon
his trip than to have him or any other
newspaper correspondent a part of the
company. As a result of the interview
.Mr. Jones, of the Times, thinks it “Orful
shabby treatment you know,” and the
special correspondent who has spoiled
tons of white paper lauding Mr. Cleveland
and the beauties of his civil service reform
administration, now carries his heart un
der the first button of his trowsers. It is

The president is evidently very busy

Maryland Tobacco Crop llummieil by tho Frost
Washington, September 27.—Reliable
reports received herefrom Maryland, Vir-
g iuia and West Virginia show that the to-
aceo crop has been injured considerably
by the recent frosts. Samuel Cox, jr., of
the Baltimore custom house, in speaking
of the effects of the heavy frost of Sunday
night upon the tobacco crop of southern
Maryland, said that in Charles and Pritice
George counties the damage would be con
siderable. He came up from hib home in
Charles county yesterday morning, and as
lie rode along noticed the effects of the
frost upon the tobacco. He says there is
large quantity of tobacco still in the field
and if, as he fears, the frost has touched it
will render it almost worthless. The
tobacco season is at its height, and con
siderable quantities have been harvest
ed. Field frosted tobacco only
brings about two cents a pound, and is not
worth the handling for the money. The
price of tobacto is high, and the farmers
who hare suffered from the frost will be
