F; CHANDLER’S MISTAKE.

no Displayed.o Corkscrew Among'Gm
field’s Constituents.

» Senator Zach Chandler, of- Michigan,
was found" dead in his room at the
Grand Pacific Hotel, in Chicago, on
November 2, 1879. That year was the
the first time that Charles Foster ran
for Governor in Ohio, and Chandler
made a series of speeches throughout
the State during the campaign.

Just a month prior to the day he died
he spoke in the little town of Chardon,
in the northeastern part of the State.
Judge Edmun-ds, of Vermont, then a
United States Senator, was announced
to speak with Chandler, but he did not

put in an appearance, so Chandler and.

General Garfield—it was in Garfield’s
district—addressed the meeting, which
was a. big one.

There was no building in the town
large enough to hold the crowd that
gathered, so a rough platform was
built on the east side of the Court
HouSe in the public square. In the
course of his speaking Chandler
brought out his jack-knife, opened it
and placed it across his notes on the
table to prevent a brisk October wind
from blowing them away.

He was followed by Garfield, and at"

the closc of the meeting a crowd of the
country folk called at the hotel to
meet the distinguished guest. Garfield
knew them all, and introduced. them
one by one to Chandler. The Michigan
Senatbr, asked numerous questions
about the farmers, their social condi-
tions, etc.
things, that the people of the county
prided themselves on their unrelenting
antipathy to intemperance. One man
regretted that the Michigan. Senator
could not ‘be present some time at one
of their Sunday evening temperance
meetings.

After the crowd had dispersed Chan-
dler turned-to Garfield and. said:

“Say, Garfield, why didn’t. you tell
me something about your constitu-
ents?”

“Didn’t I tell you that they were the
best people you would find in the
country?” Garfield retorted.

“Yes, but you didn’t say anything
about their being such fierce temper-
ance folk.” «

“Well, I may have forgotten that,
but you have found it out for your-
self.”

“Yes, and your forgetfulness has ru-
ined my reputation.”

“How so ?”

“During all the time I was speaking
my jack-knife, with the corkscrew
ope::ed, was in full sight of the au-di-
ence, and you never said a. word. It’s
too late now. I shall never dare look
your constituents in their faces-again.”
~Phi1adelphia Ledger. .

 

They Wouldn’t Sing “A Spanish Hymn.
During the excitement over the ex-
plosion of the Maine an incident oc-

curred at the University of Pennsyl-

vania. which demonstrated «the patrio-
tism of the‘ students. At the usual
chapel exercises one morning the open-
ing hymn was given out, and the huge
pipe organ swelled out the prelude.
Usually the six hundred or eight hun-
dred students sing out the hymn with

. great fervor, but this morning the first

line or two were sung faintly, and then
the organ alone carried on the tune.
The organist gazed around in amaze-
ment, the dean wore a puzzled expres-
sion, and members of the faculty pres-
ent were mystified." The second stanza
was but a. repetition of the first, and
when it came rte-the “Amen,” which
every student, whether musically in-
clined or not, always swells upon with
all his vocal might, the same silence
prevailed. The explanation of it all
Was that the name of the hymn was “A
Spanish Hymn,” and the word had
been passed around not to sing, and
they didn’t—Philadelphia Record.

A Story of the Kaflir King.

Once, and only once, is the colossal
intellect of Barney Barnat'o known to
have unbent over light literature. As
a rule the great man did not waste his
time in reading. But once when he
was very much worried over finance
and complained that he could not
“forget his work,” Mr. Raymond lent
him “The Story of the Gadsbys” and
got him to read it, and Barney found
forgetfulness, andthus he spoke unto
his friend: .

“Do you know, I put it in my pocket
when I went down to the office, and,
looking at it again, I sat there till I
had finished it. I did what I do not
ever remember to have done before,
and clean forgot a board meeting.
0— reminded me of the meeting, but
I sat to finish.” _

.But Mr. Raymond could not get him
to read anything else—Golden Days.

 

“’ants to be up with the Times.

In Nebraska there is a man aged
fifty—two who is going to school with
his younger children.
any means illiterate, having a fair
education gained in his youth, but he
says that he desires to be up with the
times, so has entered school again. It
is a humorous sight to a stranger, but
the teacher and the other small pupils
take it with perfect gravity.

“You told me. this horse had won

half a dozen matches against some of .

the best :horses in the country. He
can't trot a mile in six minutes to save

he took the prize, sir.”——Boston Travel-

LONG RUN WITHOUT A STOP.
The Cornwall Express Travels 194 Miles
. Without aPauso.

The longest regular daily run made
without a. stop by any railway train
in the worldlhas just been placed on
,the schedule of the Great Western
Railway, of England.

It is made between Paddington sta-
tion, in London and Exe-ter, a. distance
of 194 miles, in three hours and thirty-
six minutes, by What is known as the
Cornwall express. .It is remarkable not
so much owing to the time, as for the
fact that not a. stop is made from one
end of the run to the other. There
have been longer runs made without a.
stop, but they have been made by ape,-
cial and not regular trains. The aver-
age speed attained by the Cornwall
Express when making Itlhis run is 51.7
miles an hour, although, owing to a.
peculiar construction or the road at
Bristol, 118 miles from London, the
train is obliged to slow down to a. speed
of ten miles an hour.

This express train is composed of six
long coaches, a tender and engine. An
American would Call it a. vestibule
train, but the English prefer to call the
ears “bogie clerestorle'd . corridor

to the trucks.” They are fully as heavy
as an ordinary drawing room car, each
One weighingabeut fOrty-seven thou-

the engine and tender weighs one hun-
dred and forty tons. The weight of
the engine , and tender ls eighty-one
tons, making the total weight of the
train as it rushes along on its long run
two hundred and twenty-one tons.

During the run it is necessary to

take water for the engine twice. This,
however, does not necessitate any stop,
as it is taken up from a «trench beside
the track as the'train speeds along at
nearly a. mile a minute.
' The engine which draws this essen-
tially “through train” is a. curious
looking ponderous affair quite unlike
any locomotive seen on American
roads. It has. on either side a single
huge driving wheel seven feet eig’h-t
inches _in diameter, while what must
by comparison be term-ed the small
wheels of the engine, Six in number,
known as trailers, are four feet six
inches in diameter.

The water tank of the engine holds
thirty thousand gallon-s, and when run-'
n‘ing \at full speed «there is a. steam
pressure of 160 pounds to the square
inch, while there is a. heating surface
of 1,561 square feet.

Each day the run is made, the train
leaving Paddivngton Station at 10.25
o’clock in the morning, and lit never
fails to roll into St. David’s Station, in
Exeter, exactly on time. The time al-
low-ed by the schedule for this run
makes no allowance for delays of any
kind.

GERMAN EMPEROR KING OF ENGLAND

The Prince of Wales’ Heirshlp to the
Throne Disputable.

It is not pleasant for the loyal sub-
jects and cronies of :the genial Prince
of Wales to remember that he is not
exd‘ctly the heir to the throne, and that
the German Emperor may rule over
them some day. The conservative old
lords of the realm shiver in their boots
at :the thought. A German on the
British throne! A ruler who does not
even honor the country by living in it.

 

England tacked on the tail of
Germany! '
Horrible! But William of Germany

is the eldest child of Queen Victoria’s
first born, and hence, by direct des-
cent the heir «apparent. Albert Ed-
ward is :t-he second child of Her Ma-
jesty, and Princess Alice, now dead,
the Duke of Edinburgh, the Princess
Christian, the Marohionesso'f Lorne,
the Duke of Connaught, the Duke of
Albany, and the Princess of Batten-
berg follow. Under the Salic law
women were excluded from. succeed-
ing to estates, on account of military
duties. That existed under the feudal
system. The law was rectified in 511,

The Lalic law is 'held in most Euro-
pean countries, except Spain. By this
law Hanover was lost, to England
when Victoria came to the Throne.
If Victorig. reigns, why cannot the son
of her eldest daughter, who should in-
herit the Thrones—New York Jour-
nal.

 

 

How to Write to the Pope.

Are you intending to write to the
Pope? If yOu are, get out your Latin
grammar and buy some carta palomba,
which is an especially prepared paper
used only to Write to His Holiness.

Begin your communication “Beatis-
sime Peter;” enclose it in'an envelope
directed in Latin to "His Holiness,
Pope Leo XIII., Reigning Happily.”

or to a gentleman of the Pope’s house-
hold it may possible reach him.

If. however, it is directed to “His
.Holiness, the Pope, Prefect of the Holy
Roman and General Inquisition,” it
must be delivered to him under pain of
'excommunication. Not many people
take advantage of this, however.—-New
York Journal.
