Wsney Myth That Hover About Eng
land's Chancery Court.
-j -Most people seem to think thnt there '
jarr countless ana vast iortunes n
'kancery waiting to be bestowed upon
their proper owners. This as a mattei
of fact is purely a myth and how it
arose it is impossible to say.
"We are supposed." said an official

the estate of a man named Hoffman
rained at 1S.000000. and we are re)
peatedly receiving inquiries almost a!
ways from Poland but we know noth
lagof the estate." Another estate with
-which the pay office has nothing to dt
that of the great Sir Francis Drake-
Is also the subject of many questions
. In all there are G.S38 estates In chan
Cotsj but the value of the largest is
1V more than 7.000. And. so fai
. from many millions the paymaster ol
the supreme court of judicature hat
ojftly 1.250.000 in his hands awaitinr.
claimants. A large proportion of thit
MMey moreover has been lying un
claimed since the early part of the
eighteenth century.
If you think you are entitled to any
of this money you should first study
the official list at the law courts and
thes make a formal claim. But it
aay be said it very rarely happens
that such applications prove success

Mad Famous by Napoleon the Island
Appears to Be Doomed.
When the great French emperor died
In exile in 1S21 there was probably a
.wish buried deep in his Corsican heart
that the island which had been the
scene of his humiliation might .be
.wiped from the face of the seas.
Whether or no such a curse was ever
cast upon the island it is certain that
8t Helena is doomed if not to extinc
tion at least to become an uninhabit
able rock. With the advent of steam
naVigation the island ceased to be a
regular port of call so that its always
fchty exports dwindled almost to the
vanishing point; plagues of insects de
stroyed its vegetation; rats brought
thither by foreign vessels multiplied
and overran its soil until the govern-
ment was compelled to offer a bounty
o penny for every rodent captured.
JElien the English garrison which had
bten practically the sole source of in-
cite . to the Inhabitants was with-
e4)jtrt; and the needs of the natives
became desperate-
Then as if this series of misfortunes
was not enough the termite that
cmrse of tropical and semitropical coun-
tries invaded the island and will un-
less controlled reduce the city of

"Never know what you can do with
a bit of ground till you try!" said the
host gleefully.
"Quite so quite so!" returned the

Wagner and Beer.
Slgnor Angelinl GlustinianL who
traveled specially from Rome to Bal-
reuth in order to be present at the first
performance of "Parsifal" July 2a
1882 gave an account of bis Impres-
sions in the Rassegna Contemporanea.
He was surprised at seeing Wagner
drive up to the theater "in a carriage
which also conveyeda large barrel of
beer perched conspicuously on the box
seat by the side of tne driver. This
was carried into the theater presum-
ably with a view to sla'king the thirst
aroused in Wagner and his friends by
the performance of bis masterpiece."

REED'S WITTY THRUST.
It Silenced For the Time the "Great
Objector" Holman.
There are many stories of the caustic
wit of Thomas B. Seed the famous
speaker of the house of representatives.
One of his most amusing thrusts was
delivered at William S. Holman a
member of congress from Indiana. It.
was perhaps the keenest witticism ever i
uttered in debate on the door of the
house.
Holman was a constant objector to
tha expenditure of money by congress
and had honestly earned the title of
"Watchdog of the Treasury." One day
wnen tne committee was perrunctorny
putting through a number of bills for
the -erection of government buildings in
various cities Holman was constantly
on his feet objecting to their consider-
ation. But when Indiana was reached
and the committee began to propose ap-
propriations for buildings in the towns
of that state Holman's objections came
with much less spirit and Anally
ceased altogether. When at length a
bill was offered that carried a generous
appropriation for a building In Hol-
man's own town he roso and expressed
hearty approval. Hardly had he taken
his seat when Mr. Reed was on his
feet "Mr. Speaker!" he 6houted; and
then in gently sentimental tones he re-
cited Byron's familiar lines:
'Tl8 sweet to hear the watchdog's honest
bark
Bay deep mouthed welcome as w draw
near home!
v-And the "great objector" forgot to
object any more that day! Youth's
Companion.
THEY PLAYED MARBLES.
One
Street Game In Which Lincoln
Took a Hand.
An elderly gentleman now residing in
Washington tells this story about
Abraham Lincoln :
"I was about ten years of age and
given violently to the game of mar-
bles. One cold March day my compan-
ions and I were playing on the side-
walk before mj father's shop when I
slipped on a piece of ice and fell cut-
ting my chin. The other boys seized as
many of my marbles as they could and
made off. Wild with anger I started
after them calling them names and
threatening to annihilate them and so
on. Suddenly a hand on my collar
stopped tne and a deep voice said:
" 'We're got enough ill feeling going
on in this country these days without
you boys catching It!'
"A big man swung me around and
wiped my wounded chin and then went
on:
" 'I saw what they did son. Have
you any agates left?' Good! I'll put up
three-chiny alleys and we'll see who'll
win.'
"He drew from his pocket three mar-
bles. "'I got them from my boy Tad' he
explained and then I . knew who he
was.
"There on the street I played marbles
with the president for five minutes
and he let me win. Here are the mar-
bles a precious possession!" Ex-
change. Fed the Brute.

Plague of the Black Death.
That terrible plague the black death
originating somewhere In the east
passed by way of Armenia Into Asia
and thence to Egypt and north Africa.
Reaching Sicily in 1340 it spread over
Italy Prance and nearly all of the
countries of Europe Including the
British Isles. The mortality was ap-
palling some 25000.000 of people dy-
ing from the dreud epidemic. The na
ture of the great pestilence has been a
matter of much controversy but it Is
generally conceded that it was closely
related to what Is known today as the

! HE WAS A MIGHTY KING
Ir.the Record on the Tomb of Sards-
napalus Be True.
An ancient legend tells us that i-J r-
duuupulus was the founder of Tarsu". J
while others ascribe that honor to .Sen
nacherib king of Nineveh of whosn
the Bible record speaks. An interest-
ing part of this legend about .SanSa-
napalus. the last of the Assyrian kinge.
tells us that he recorded on his tomb
near Anchlale. a nearby eitv. in one
day. a feat surely worthv of anv kiu.
But the kings of those days it must
be remembered took as much license
wlth thp rpPOr1 nn thpir tomh9 as nnv
Munchausen who ever lived.
We are also told that on this tomb
was a statue of the king snapping bis
fingers while this inscription was
written beneath: "Sardanapalus son
nf Annkvrwlnr!iTH. hnilr AmVlnlp nnd
Tarsus in one day ' Eat drink and
play for everything else is not worth
this" (a snap of your fingers).
Whether this statue and its descrip-
tion are purely mythical or not. the
tradition was probably current in
Paul's time as his own words indicate:
"If after the manner of men I
have
fought with beasts at Ephesus what
advantageth it me if the dead rise not?
Let us eat and drink for tomorrow we
die." What greater contrast could
there be than between the strenuous
manly undaunted apostle and the vo-
luptuousv blase king who was said to
have founded the city where hundreds
of years later St Paul was born?.

BEST OF ALL JOURNALISTS.
St. Mark Has Been Called tho Reporter
Among the Apostles.
The greatest journalist the world ever
knew lived 1500 years or more before
the invention of type according to Rev.
Dr. Frank N. Palmer who awarded the
palm to St Mark und wondered at the
marvels thnt he might have accom-
plished If he hod lived in the days of '
printing presses.
St Matthew put his chronicles in
twenty-eight chapters; St Luke used
twenty-four to tell his story: St John ;
used twenty-one. but St Mark covered
all the details more vividly in sixteen j
and. true to the spirit of action that
animates his kind put a miracle in ev- '
cry chapter.
St Mark Dr. Palmer said was the
reporter among the apostles. His view-j
point his language and his marvelous )
ability to give action and climax clash j
and color in a sentence should be a
glowing example to
the newspaper
writers of this day. j
. Each of the other apostles speaks of -skies
that opened. Mark says they
were rent asunder. He Is the only one
among his brethren who stopped duti-
fully to describe the color of a given
scene. In the writings of his fellows It
is told that the people went to the Ser-
mon on the Mount Mark writes vivid-
iy that the people ran.
In writing for the Romans he used
colorful allusions and the references to
wild beasts to touch their intelligence
in sympathetic fashion at every stroke
