corners and quiver, while she blinked her
eyes so fast that suspect she only caught
occasional glimpses of the broad shouldered
fellow who eibOwed his way SO rapidly to-
ward her. And then as he drew close and
dropped those everlasting portmanteaus, she
Just turned completely round, with her back
toward him, and covered her face with her
hands. And thus she was when the strong
man gathered her up in his arms as if she
had been baby, and held her sobbing TO
his breast. There were enough gaping at
them. heaven knows, and turned my eyes
away a moment, ami than | saw two boys ii
roundabouts standing near, wiping their eyes
and noses on their coat sleeves, and bursting
out anew at every fresh demonstration on
the part OF their mother. When looked at
the stranger again he had his hat drawn
down over his eyes ; but his wife was look
ing up at him. and it seemed rs if the pent
up tears Of those weary months Of waiting
were streaming through her cyelids.

A Duxbury, Mass. Speech, with Leave
TO Print"

Not all the good things to be said at the Stand
sh celebration were uttered. We have, ,come into
possession, says the UnireTsdlisf, Of the brief
speech Of one of the non-speakers which ne it
contains somc new views, or rather novel as
sOciation of ideas we give to our readers. The
author is the veteran Genealogist, d. p. Holton,
NJ D., of New York
From the birth of Miles Standish, in Lancs-
shire, 1884, to his death, here, Oct 8, 1906, are
seventy-two years Half of these he passed in
the Old World. and half in the New. Of his
American life, nearly one-third-eleven years
was spent in Plymouth and more than two
thirds here in Duxbury, in his last earthly
home. From the genealogical chart which hold
in my hand, | observe that there are eight gen.
erations from the original settlers Of Captains
Hill to the latest born of their descendants
Eight generations ago the warrior brought to
this hill his second Rose, but with
name less weet,-Barbars From here the in
iuence of these two has been filing an ever-en-
larging sphere. Spheres are proportioned to the
cubes of their dismeters and the cube Of two
is eight Thus in eight generations has the in
huence Of these two filed the land with their
spirit. Eight generations in two hundred and
forty years, that is Just thirty years to genera
ton, less than sihird os 4 century for the aver
age difference in age between sire and son.
The basis of the structure here to rice, will
doubtless be a cube Of grsnite-the most durable
of New England rocks, and first utilized from
auArries near us. Not flesh and blood are CON-
memorated by stone, but soul and mind The
body Of the Captain WAS certainly below the
average Of manly stature. The everlasting gran
ite shall be surpassed by few Of the monuments
Of his fellows
1t may seem whimsical 20 some, but GER
tainly not useless as mnemonic, to note
coincidence between these two hundred and
forty years, arranged into eight generations
Of thirty each, and the humsn frame Of
two hundred and forty bones, arranged
into eight sections, each Of an exact thirty

GRECIAN ISTEtLEcr Ia the Grecian intellect
there was in all the regions Of thought tenden-
cy 10 dwell upon the form in preference to the
internal reality Of objects. This is in fact the
genius Of srt expressed in its ultimate formula
In religion, the Greek delighted in the temple
and the procession, more than in the goi; in
poetry. his joys. his sorrows, his meiitstions,
were moulded in a form essentially picturesque,
such as the eye could contemplate IN the ideal
beauty Of statusry. his tAse inclined to pre-
cision Of outline even more than to depth of ex-
preston in history, be inclined TO the perfec-
tion Of style more than the perfection Of verscy;
in national policy, wealth and power themselves
were scarcely valued in comparison with that
floating pnsntom Of q" glory which is their
shadow.

The total expenses of the Mont Cents Tunnel
amount to $4,000, 900 francs; of these 20. .OOO..
900 francs are to be contributed by the Veto,
Emmanuel Railway, or Railway of Northern
Italy. This sum is TO be paid on or before the
opening Of the tunnel. The French government
was to pay 100000 francs if the work was
accomplished within twenty years. reckoning
from 1862. But ifthe work WAS accomplished
at An earlier date, France bound herself 10 pay
100000 francs more for every year gained upon
the stipulated time. As there have been eleven
years thus gained, France will have to nav
$500, 900 francs besides the $1,000, 900 francs
of the original stipulation. She has besides to pay
five per cent. interest on the money due for the
work as it proceeded from year to year Thus
Ialy will pay something less than $1,000 900
francs Had the construction of the tunnel
continued beyond the stipulated term of twenty
years. Italy would have lost 500, 900 frsncs for
every year in excess Of that period.

FRIGHTENED To DEATH.-A Kentucky msn
who attempted to cross high railroad bridge at
Sheperdsyile, in that State, on the 2ith ut.,
stumbled and fell between the ties, but, fortu
nstely, managed to grasp tie with his hands
and there hung dangling, with 100 feet of sheer
fall beneath him. He was utterly unable to re-
gain the top of the bridge, and he hung on with
death grasp, until his cries brought assistance.
Lifted from his perilous position he was led of
the bridge, and sat down for few minutes, sp-
psrently overcome by the danger through which
he had passed. Then he got up, SIS he said, 20
go home, wslkei few steps, and fell to the
ground dead Physicians, who carefully ex-
smned the body, say that there vas no bruise
or wound sufficient to disable him, much less
cause death. and are of opinion that his death
was caused by fright.

WARRISG AGAINST THE LoRDs- cable
dispatch announces that national conference is
to be held in Birmingham in November, to con-
slider the necessity of a reform in the compost
ton and powers Of the British House Of Lords.
This is the latest indication of the political pro-
gress going on in England. The oligsrchy, which
has so long stood like a rock in the path Of the
popular will, is receiving some hard blows /; and
there may be good deal Of truth in the rumor
which was circulated several months ago. to the
effect that the English Ministry contemplated
the infusion of new blood into the Upper House
of Parliament The erection Of life peerages
has been talked of, and a sufficient number of
such memberships might speedily turn the scale.
