“I was in Washington once,” said a
man at the club, “when Tom Heed was
the czar of the house of representa
tives. He was holding forth with ear
nestness on some theme to a group of
friends when that man you see over
.there by the cigar counter pushed his
way through the crowd, grasped Reed
by the hand and said effusively; ‘Hello,
Tom, old boy! How do you do?’
“Reed responded in a manner that
was more of a shake for the man
than for his hand and went on with
his talk. When our friend over there
had edged out of the crowd, someone
said: ‘You didn’t seem to be happy
over him, Reed. Who is your friend,
anyway?’
“Reed drawled out, ‘He’s a fellow
from New York who knows more men
who don’t want to know him than any
other man in the United States.’ ”—De

Thrifty Squanderers.
When Napoleon entered Genoa lc
1805, the rich patricians of the city
exerted themselves to gain the favoi
of the conqueror by kll sorts of flat
tering attentions. The most elaborate
of these was a banquet patterned after
the famous one offered by Antony to
Cleopatra.
The tables were set In an artificial
garden, floating on pontoons, which
were towed out to sea during the prog
ress of the feast. At the conclusion oi
the banquet—again in imitation of An
tony and Cleopatra—all the costly golf
and silver plate was flung into the sea.
This little tribute of honor to the em
peror was not so expensive as it seem
ed, for the floating garden was sur
rourded with nets, and the plate wa.'
subsequently recovered.

THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEWS, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1901
Fourth Centnry Shorthand.
That shorthand was used in the an
cient world is well known, but our In
formation is still scanty, and any ad
dition is welcome. It may therefore
be worth knowing that there is In the
Armenian “Acts of St. Callistratus”
a reference to the employment cf ste
nography. A translation of this is in
cluded in Mr. F. C. Conybeare’s "Ar
menian .Apology and Acts of Apollo
nius and Other Monuments of Eariy
Christianity.” The account of Cal
listratus was probably written in the
first half of the fourth century. It in
cludes several long addresses of Calli
stratus to his fellow soldiers in expla
nation of the mysteries of the new
faith for which he and forty-nine of
his comrades became martyrs. Per
haps with a view to giving them au
thority as verbatim reports, the, com
piler says;
“But there was a certain scribe of
the law' court who was near to the
prison, and he listened to the discourse
of Callistfatus, and he wrote it down
iu shorthand on paper and gave it to
us. and we set in order with all ac
curacy the record and outline of hi*
thought”
Tlmi'kray'i Facial Appearance.
In 1849 or 1850 Charlotte Bronte
wrote of Thackeray: 'To me tho broad
brow seems to express intoliect Car
tain lines about the noea and cheek bo
tray the satirist and the cynic; the
mouth indicates a childlike simplicity,
perhaps even a degree of irresolutenesa
in consistency—weakness, in short, but
a weakness not unamiable.” And Mr.
Motley, writing to his wife in 1858,
said; “I believe you have never seen
Thackeray. He has the appearance of
a colossal infaut---smooth, white, shin
ing, ringlety hair, flaxen, alas, with ad
vancing years; a roundish face with a
little dab of a nose, upon which it is a
perpetual wonder how he keeps his
spectacles.”
This broken nose was always a source
of amusement to Thackeray himself.
He caricatured it in his drawing, he
frequently alluded to it In his speech
and in his letters, and he was fond of
repeating Douglas Jerrold’s remark to
him when he was to stand as godfathet
to a friend’s son, “Lord, Thackeray, J
hope you won't present the child wilL
your own mug!”

PICTURESQUE BRITTANY.
A Blftrket Scene In This Qnalnl
French Province.
Brittany is a laud where the peasants
till the earth in zouave trousers, torea
dor jackets covered with arabesque
embroideries and green waistcoats
around which run lines of crimson.
The women wear short rod skirts,
great medici collars and coifs that flut
ter about their heads like the wings of
doves. From beneath the points of
their black caps the children gaze at
you with wide eyes full of the curiosity
of animals.
These people live in houses built of
Sculptured granite and sleep in open
work closets carved iiks the mouchars
bieks of Egypt.
In spite of tho “Breton Interiors” and
“Returns of the Fishermen” with
which painters swamp the market this
race is still unknown or misunder
stood. for they should be seen not in
paintings, but U their homes, in their
old time streets, on market days and
when. In fair time, the tents are pitched
in the village market places.
Fiery little horses draw to market
fish, fine vegetables and all the eariy
produce of Roscoff. They are spread
out upon the sidewalk. Chickens
cackle; goats bleat; pigs, tied by the
leg, strain toward the vegetables, sniff
ing at the fresh greens.
Farmers in sabots, carrying great
blue umbrellas under their arms, with
the two ribbons of their felt hats float
ing down their backs, pick their way
among the Dlnau china disphrs“A_on
the ground-capacious sotip tufcens,
cider jugs and plates covered with
paiuted flowers and grotesque figures.
The peasants converse with but few
gestures; they bargain in gutteral
tones.
These taciturn people forget them
selves in the barrooms on fair days.
The taverns are full of noise. You
may hear the sound of an accordion
and the plaintive note of the biniou (a
sort of bagpipe), leading monotonous
dances.
Into the harbor come boats laden
with flea; other boats go out. The
fishermen are full of business. Next
week will occur the departure for th
aew country. There are women who
weep.
Above all ibis agitation tlie smoke of j
the village chimneys mingles with th* j
jrtat wl ite clouds. The quiet sea mlr- '
tors the sun.—Artist Castalgne in Ce*- !

Dean of Westminster Refused to A*
cept Statue of Poet.
Many years ago some admirers at
Lord Byron raised a subscription for <
monument to the poet, to be placed ii
Westminster abbey. Chantrey was r
quested to execute it. but on account
of the smallness of the sum subscribed
be declined, and Thorwaldsen wai
then applied to and cheerfully under
took the work.
In about 1833 the finished statue ar>
rived at the custom house in Loudon,
but, to the astonishment of the sub
scribers. the dean of Westminster, Dr.
Ireland, declined to give permission to
have it set up in the abbey, aud, owing
to this difficulty, which proved insur
mountable, for Dr. Ireland's successor
was of the same opinion, it remained
for upward of twelve years in the cus
tom house, when (1846) it was re
moved to the library of Trinity col

A Model Surveyor.
The Kingman Leader-Courier tells of
an early day county surveyor in King-'
man comity, Kan., who neither pos
sessed any instruments nor could have
used them if he had. His method of
measuring laud was to tie bis ankles
together with a cord that was Just
long enough to allow him to step ona
t'ftli of a rod each time, and thus hob
bled he would strike out, counting his
steps u itil he had made a sufficient
number to cover the desired distance.
The cord or string used by him to
fastening his legs together, says the
Leader-Courier, was made or raw
hide, so that when he was traveling
through (he grass of a morning when
the dew was on it would become wet
j and stretch nearly a foot, and so his
| steps were much longer ot a morning
j tbau they were of ai -veiling after the
j tun had dried the v ang leather and
shortened it. Cons- piently the man
