HAVE YOU A MHAN STREAK?
Meannesses Which Good Men and
Women Sometimes Display.
From the Boston Herald.
Everybody has a mean streak somewhere.
The most generous, the most charitable, the
old Adam is in us all and shows himself
somewhere. The richest and the poorest,
the most extravagant and the most economi
cal , all, in someone or two particulars, ex
hibit a meauuess so petty that it would
astonish themselves if it were pointed out to
them. For, strange to say, his meanness is
almost always involuntary and unbeknown
to the people who practice it. Thero is one
of the wealthiest mea in New York, who
is known everywhere for his generosity, but
who habitually practices a comical little
piece of meannoss which he probably fondly
imagines is economy, says tue Recorder. If
ho has three or four gentlemen in his offlee
down town bo will pass around his box of
fine Havana cigars, which cost him a straight
SSO a hundred, then he will pull out a box
of wax matches, light one and deliberately
hold it to oaoh cigar in turn, and finally, at
the risk of burning his fingers, will light his
own cigar. This little habit is the cause of
considerable amusement among his friends,
who, knowing the really generous nature of
the man, cannot help a smile at the small
ness which economizes upon a match at 250
for 5 cents. Probably it is the commercial
iustinoi in the man.
The wife of one of the most popular of
New York hotel keepers has a weakness for
economizing halves of lemon. The lady’s
purse is open to every cry for assistance;
her store closet has furnished many a meal
to poor men and women. She is in every
way a charming and delightful companion,
ho tess aud friend. Yet if she sees upon
her table the haif of a lemon as yet un
squeezed, she will pick it up and carefully
put it away in a drawer of her buffet. It
will never be used, for a frosh lemon is al
ways cut when louion juice is wanted, but
she cannot bear to see naif a lemon thrown
away, and so she sometimes has a collection
of seven or eight pieces, until the servant
finds them and removes them, and so makes
room for another collection.
In one of the drawers of the bureau of a
wealthy merchant of this city there is a col
lection of two or three hundred pencil ends,
not one of them more than an inch to an
inch and a half in length. They are of no
use. Their owner will never use them, but
he cannot find it in bis heart to pitch them
out. Into this drawer he throws all bis
pencil ends, with some fanciful idea that
“they will come in useful some day.” They
never will. It is the one little mean spot in
his composition; he will neither give them
away nor throw them away, and he has
himself no use for them.
Some ladies have a funny little mean
streak, which they would defend if accused
of by saying they were “only getting full
value for my money.” A street car is
traveling along, lav Sixth avenue. It stops
at Fourteenth street. Five ladies and a
little girl get out at the crossing, and walk
the rest of what little dsstance they may be
going to do their shopping. The car starts
on again, and has proceeded the distance
of three stores, when a lady, who has
hitherto remained seated, signs to the
conductor to stop. She gets out, amid
a dangerous crowd of vehicles, risks hor
limbs or life, gets her shoes covered with
mud, but she has boen carried to exactly
opposite the store she wanted to visit. Very
likely, in every other action of her life she
is gentle, kind, thoughtful, considerate and
generous. This is her one mean spot. There
is a lady who at home is the best and
sweetest of wives and mothers, whose little
ness shows itself in a peculiar manner out
of doors in public places. From the
moment that she gets on the street with
her husband she begins to discover
faults iu him. He taiks too loud, or
he is clumsy, or he is a fool for not having
the exact fare ready to pay the car
conductor, or he makes an object of himself
when he rises in the middle of the block to
iflsuro the stoppage of the oar at the next
corner, or his neextie is awry, or he is inat
tentive, or something is wrong with him
of wbicn she would be tbe last to accuse him
when at home. The probable fact is that
her nervous organization gets upset in the
midst of the noise and racket of the streets,
and the little mean streak which, unknown
to her, lies hidden in her character shows
itself in this inconsiderate public “nagging.”
The man who will fill himself aud his
family with patent medicines, the virtues
of which he has no acquaintance with,
rather than employ a qualified medical
man, is quite a well-known character. The
man who jumps upon the platform of a
street car to finish the end of a penny cigar
ette rather than take tbe convenience of a
•oat is another. There is tbe man who never
buys a newspaper, but always gets some
down-town friend to give him the morning
paper to read as he go e3
home in the evening, and there
is the woman who “borrows” a hairpin or
even a pin. And what theatrical manager
does not know and abhor the “deadhead"
who is wealthy enough. to buy up every
seat in the theater, but who is none the less
mean enough to beg for a free pass every
time he meets tbe unfortunate manager,
and who will spend twenty times the value
of the seat in dinners, suppers and drinks
in order to get it? These are only a very
few of the potty meanneses of human
nature, to which list any observant person
could easily add a score of examples.

THE MORNING NEWS; MONDAY; JUNE 22, 1891.
CAREER OF MY IADY.
LORD BROOKE’S H &NDSOM3 WIFE
KNOWN AS A PLUNGER.
Leader of a Very Fast Set and Had a
Narrow Escape from the Divorce
Court Several Years Ago.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
London, June 17.—Ascot week did not
close without the gossip mongers having
the best of it. For several day 6 rumors
have been afloat, both in the clubs and
drawiug-rooms, to the effect that the ex
posure of Lady Brooke in connection with
the baccarat scandal was inevitable, and
that legal steps had already been taken
against the prince and herself. Sir W.
Gordon-Cumming’s friends accuse her
openly of having been the causa of his
ruin.
The fast friends of a faster prince, how
ever, emphatically deny that there is aoy
truth in the matter: and say that it is
nothing but the malicious talk of a set of
jealous society womeu. Recently at a social
gathering, where royalty and its satellites
were not present, it was open talk that the
threatening olouds which had been hovering
over his royal highness’ head for some time
past had by no means been dispersed.
The relations between the Prince of
Wales and Lady Brooke have been the
topic of society gossip on several occasions.
As yet nobody has openly accused the pair
of any undue intimacy, yet it has been re
peatedly hinted that if Lord Brooke were
nut so easy going he would long ago have
put a stop to the repeated interviews
between his wife and the heir apparent.
THE POLICY OF THE PRINCESS.
It is also a well-known fact that the
Princess of Wales has strongly objected to
having Lady Brooke’s society forced upon
her, aud the queen simply ignores her. A
few years ago rumor had it that Lady
Brooke bad become smitten with the hand
some guardsman, but that Sir Gordon-Cum
ming, being aware of the close relations be
tween his friend the prince and the lady in
question, met her advances coldly.
Lady Brooke has always been known
among her friends and at the court as one
of the most mischievous gossip-mongers.
She is considered a woman who will never
rest until she has brought ruiu upon any
person she hates. Her past has beeu suoh
as to give oolor to the unfavorable comments
made on her oharaoter. All London knows
that her married life is an unhappy one.
Lord Brooke has always been an insignifi
cant mao, who has no other merit except
that of having been a college chum of the
late Prince Leopold, Duke of Albany.
Lady Brooke before her marriage was
Miss Maynard. Her father. Col. Maynard,
left an enormous fortune, of which only the
smaller part went to his widow, who, soon
after his death, became the wife of the Earl
of Rosslyn. Lord Brooke is the eldest son
of the Earl of Warwick, of Warwiok castle.
He is undoubtedly the poorest peer in the
United Kingdom, and "consequently when
Lord Brooke’s marriage with Miss Maynard
came off it was hailed with delight by the
earl and his family.
FOURTEEN CO-RESPONDENTS AT ONE TIME.
A few years after their marriage rumors
became afloat concerning an imminent so
cial scandal in which the names of several
prominent statesmen, officers, etc., were
connected with that of one of the wealthiest
aud most beautiful ladies of the English
aristocracy. It did not take long before the
rumors assumed greater consistency, and
it became an open seoret that Lady Brooke's
reputation was at stake. No less than four
teen co-jespondents were named, among
them, as usual, the gay prinoe, the Duke of
Marlborough, and even Lord Randolph
Churchill. The affair was hushed up, and
the only man who saved his reputation in
the matter was Lord Randolph Churchill.
The rest oarried the stigma of the affair
until the scandal, like many others, had
died out. It seemed then but little short of
a miracle that the pure, sweet, simple girl,
who but a few years ago appeared to be the
essence of truth, goodness and purity, should
be brought into oourt with no less than
fourteen 00-respondents so shortly after her
marriage.
Another interesting fact is that Lady
Brooke was an intimate friend of Lady
Colin Campbell. Tue foul air which in
fests the circle of her intimate acquaint
ances, and the unmaullne.s of her lord and
master, have certainly much to do with the
vagaries and eccentricities of her present
life. Ever since this beautiful, and in some
ways talented woman, beoame prominent
lu society, stie has been the public leader of
a very fast set at London, Ascot, Sandown
and Goodwood. •
KNOWN AS THK LADY PLUNGER.
In racing circles she is known as the
“lady plunger," and many a “booky”has
gone home with his pockets filled with crisp
banknotes after her ladyship has had a bad
day. Some years ago she spent the season
at Moute Carlo, and there, too, she was said
to have lost a large amount of her father’s
wealth. The real cause why Lord Brooke
did not push the divorce case above reterred
to has never been known, but it was hinted
that the old Earl of Warwiok objeoted to
having bis untarnished name dragged into
court.
Apart from this, Lord Brooke's next
brother, Capt. Faulke Ureviile, was acting
as bear-leader to the Prinoe of Wales’ eldest
eon, and and it is likely chat a good deal of
influence was brought to bear upon the heir
of Warwick castle from that quarter.
Furthermore, Lady Brooke’s stepfather, the
Karl of Rosslyn, was captain of the corps of
Gentlemen-at-Arms, and he is one of the
most conspicuous figures of London society.
An excellent sportsman and an execrable
poet, be has the highest opinion of himself.
He is however, not popular, and is often
sneered at. His sister is married to Count
Munster, the Uerman ambassador at Paris.
GREAT MEN AND BORES.
Experiences of Scientists and Literary
Men with Visitors.
From the Irish Times.
A certain successful literary man once
granted an interview to a young gentleman.
The youth began to talk about his accom
plishments, and bis opinions, his autobio
graphy from the age of 15, and the doomed
author soon saw that only main force would
make the terrible gabbler cease. For two
mortal hours did this torturer chatter on to
his own entire satisfaction; tbe host, dwell
ing in a secluded place, had not the heart
to turn his guest out into the snow to wait
two hours for a train, so he suffered, and
suffered until at length, in a spasm of acute
boredom, be said :
“Mr. Blank, your train goes in two hours’
time;you will find ail the week’s papers on
your right; I am compelled to start to
work!” and thus procured a respite from
his guest’s drivel.
Another rather distinguished man had
one evening a visitor who began to speak
about a certain branch of science. The host,
perbaos a dozen times in the apaoe of two
hours and a half, gave a preliminary
“Hem!” because be wanted to say some
thing, but the bore waved him down with a
suave “One moment, if you please!” What
the gagged man wanted to say, and event
ually did say, was that his caller’s lecture,
though interesting, was perfectly familiar
to him.
“You are, in fact,” ho concluded, “dis
coursing on my own special subject.”
Buoh a statement should have discon
certed a man who had talked with one even
flow for the space of 150 minutes, but not at
ail! With the placid confidence of the
thorough-paced bore, he sweetly re
marked —
“Ah. well, you see bow copiously I can
talk on that subject! Next time I call you
shall see that I can be quite as fluent on
another branch of knowledge.”
That second call has not yet taken place.
When we hear of cases like those above
cited, we are tempted to wish that ail men
bad something of Carly le's rudeness. The
mighty Thomas was hidding “good day” to
a very oonceited young man, who had
favored him with a long sermon on things
in general: he went politely to the door,
and then said:
“Well, Mr. Bland, I’ve reoeived ye for
the sake of your father. Now good-bv, and
earnestly hope I’ll never see ye again!”
On another occasion Carlyle lo ked in a
passionless way at a visitor who had been
holding forth for ever so long, and said:
"Man, but ye’re a puir creeture!”
The anecdote recalls one of a cobbler who
once got rid of a tiresome caller by putting
his hands on his lapstene and pensively
gazing at the talking nuisance. Finally he
said:
“I supppse, now, they tell you that God
made you?”
The terrible insinuation was too much for
the bore, and he fled, utterly routed.
But, unhappily all men cannot be rude;
or, at auy rate, "they learn only when perse
cution has become intolerable. Besides,
these pernicious assailants cannot be shaken
lightly off. Try as one will, it is impossible
to persuade some men and women that one
has not an hour to spare for them. They
will grant that one should not spare a min
ute to anybody else, but their cas-> is so in
teresting and so very special that the man
who refusee to bear all about the matter is a
callous brute, or an upstart, or something
peculiarly abandoned. That, by the wav,
is a strange thing which should be carefully
kept in 'mind by all who ever hope to be
distinguished.
Kindness to people who have no claim
upon it is nearly always repaid by impu
dence. Every successful man, from the
statesman down to the betting man, is b -
sieged by people who want his time, or his
money, or both; and the most cringing
suitor is ready to develop in a moment into
the most brutally insolent—perhaps going
so far as to invent some atrocious scandal
regarding the individual who has offended
him. In time the unhappy man of emi
nence learns to laugh at such things; but at
first the infliction is hard to endure.
"GENESIS FIFTY-ONE."
A Biblical Forgery Which Hns Puzzled
Scholars for 500 Years.
Prom the St. Louis Republic.
For the past 300 or 600 years the follow
ing eo-oalled “Genesis fifty-one” has been a
puzzle to Biblical scholars, and to-day,
were It read aloud in any mixed company,
it is questionable if its fraudulent nature
would be discovered, so beautiful is the
spirit and language of the Old Testament
imitated. Below we give this unique fraud
in full.

that Abraham sat in the door of his tent at

ing on a staff.
3. And Abraham arose and met him and
said unto him, Turn in, I pray thee, aud
wash thy feet, and tarry all night, and thou
shall arise early on the morrow and go thy
way.
4. But the man said, Nay, for I will abide
under this tree.
5. And Abraham pressed him greatly, so
be turned and they went into the tent; and
Abraham broke unleavened bread aud they
did eat.
6. And when Abraham saw that the man
blessed not God, he said uuto him, Where
fore dost thou not worship the most high
God, creator of Heaven and earth?
7. And the man ausivered and said, Ido
not worship the God thou spoakest of,
neither do I call upon his name, for I have
made to myself a god which abidech alway
in my house and providoth me with all
things.
8. And Abraham’s anger was kindled
against that man for what he had said, and
he arose and drove him forth with blows
into the wilderness.
9. And at midnight God called upon
Abraham, saying, Abraham, where is the
stranger that oame by the way of thy tent
at the going down of the sun?
10. And Abraham answered andj said
Lord, he would not worship thee, neither
would he call upon thy name, therefore I
have driven him out from before my face
into the wilderness.
11. And God said, Have I not borne with
him these 198 years, and nourished him, and
clothed him, notwithstanding he has re
belled against me ? Could’st thou not, thee
thyself being a sinner, bear with him one
night?
12. And Abraham said, Let not the anger
of my Lord wax against his servant; lo! 1
have sinned, forgive me I pray of theo.
13. And Abraham arose and went forth
into the wilderness, and sought diligently
for the man until he had found him, and re
turned with him to the tent, and when he
had entertained him kindly he sent him
away on the morrow with many gifts.
14. And God spoke again unto Abraham,
saving, For this thy sin agaitist the
stranger, thy seed shall be afflicted 400
years in a strange land.
15. But, for thy repentance, I will de
liver them, and they Bhall come forth with
power and with gladness of heart.
The author of this pseudo-biblical cu
riosity is unknown. It has been traced
back over 700 years to a Persian poet, who
6imply says “it was so related to me.”
A KILKENNY FIGHT.
Four Men Have a Mortal Battle, Each
for Himself.
New York, June 21.—The steamship
South Portland of the Wessols line arrived
from Jamaica ports this afternoon. Chief
Mate J. B. Lowell told the following tale:
On the afternoon of June 13 the Port
land touched at Port Marie. Mato Lowell
was sent on shore to get the mails. On his
way to the poetofflee he cauie across a
crowd of blacks on the village green.
There must have geen at least 500 of them,
and when Mr. Lowell inquired what tho
row was about they informed him that a
battle royal wsb just about to begin.
Four coolies, all i.atives of the town, bad
become involved in a sort of llontague-
Capuiet controversy, and eaoh of them had
arrived at the conclusion that Port Marie
and this planet generally was altogether too
good a place to harbor the other three any
longer. So they had mutually decided to
fight unto the death. In tbe center of the
green an enclosure had been roped off, and
inside of it, at each corner, stood one of the
four contestants. They were stripped to
the waist, and each man grasped in his right
hand a knife with a blade seven inohes
long.
For a moment the men stood glaring at
each other. Then the word was given and
the fight begaD. It was a case of every
man for himself with a vengeance. In five
minutes it was all over. When the police
arrived upon the scene three bodies, hacked
almost beyond recognition, lay inside the
ropes. The fourth man was so crazed by bis
wounds that before the police could lay
hands on him he drove his own knife
through hs heart.
] ' CHIMNEY-,
The breaking of lamp
chimneys is one of the most
provoking of home annoy
ances, and leads to a con
stant stream of expense.
It can be stopped. The
breaking is due to brittle
glass.
There are two kinds of
glass. One is as tough as
the other is brittle. Tough
glass costs a little more than
brittle. That is the explana
tion.
