Curious Wills.

Chambers journal gives some strange
facts and figures appertaining 10 will
making: In 1914, Lady Francis vii.
son, daughter of the Earl of Aylesbury,
was informed by Archdeacon Potts, that
a paris hioner of his, named Wright,
then lying dead at poor lodging in
Pimlico, had lett her valuable estate
in Hampshire. The fair legatee ridi-
culed the idea, as she knew no such in
dividual. However, she went TO PM
lico, and recognized her defunct friend
as q constant frequenter of the opera,
who had annoyed her by continually
staring at her there. One would natur.
ally suppose that the friendless man
had fallen in love with the lady, or
been attracted, perhaps, by her resent
blance to some lost love of his youth.
There may have been some tender feel.
ing in the case; but then, how can we
account for his leaving $4,000 to the
Countess of Rosslyn, $1,000 to the
Speaker Of the House Of Commons, and
81 900 TO the Chancellor of the Elk.
chequer, all Of whom were ignorant of
his existence. The worthy Archdeacon
would have secuted the notion of the
man being insane, for had he not proved
himself in his right mind by leaving
him fl,000, las a mark of appreciation
of sermon he had heard him preach. "
In 1872, a Monmouthshire squire left
600, 900 to laboring man to whom he
would not speak while living. A Mr..
Furstone left $1,000 to the first man
bearing his surname who should marry

The Danger Of Letter Writing.

1t is not political candidates alone
who should be careful about writing
letters. Candidates for matrimony, as
well, should make their communication
as exclusively verbal as possible; for
letter may become an ugly thing to
deal with. An Iowa bride learned this
by costly experience few days ago.
The church was full of people, silks
rustled, Jewels flashed, eager expectation
and unfeigned delight were everywhere
manifest. But when the holy man came
to the usually meaningless words "Let
him speak now, or forever after hold
his peace" 10! trong-limbed, dark
haired, herce-eyed man among the con-
gregation rose and forbade the bans,
giving as his reason that the fair but
false one was engaged to himself.
And lest his words should be deemed
the mere idle utterances of Jealous
rival, he Immediately drew from his
pocket, and began TO read aloud, the
letters which the bride had written him.
The tender and gushing character of
these epistles made it evident that his
claim was just. The friends of the
young woman tried to silence him with
storm OF misses and yells, while strong
party of his own friends sent forth a
counter.blast, and charming uproar
was the rapid result. The clergyman
made his escape by the vestry door, the
crowd surged out at the front. and the
battle was renewed in the yard. The
bridegroom disappeared, and the bride
expressed her willingness to settle the
dispute by marrying her first lover-an
offer which is likely to be accepted.

Carrier Pigeons.

A writer in CasseTs Magazine says:
In Holland and Belgium great deal
of attention is paid to pigeons, and a
yearly exhibition at Antwerp does much
to foster and encourage the breeding
and training of them. There is, in fact,
or was, in that city, society of pigeon
fanciers; and at their annual competi-
ton in 1919 an interesting trial came
off, the result of which has been handed
down to US. A pigeon belonging there
was conveyed to London and thrown
up, when it Immediately flew away
back to its home, returning in six hours
a distance of $50 miles, measured in &
straight line.
The pigeons used officially IN France
during the late war are said to have
exceeded this rate considerably, travel
ing at the rate of nearly forty miles an
hour.
By what intuitive principle the bird
is guided when it is thrown up, and inn
mediately, after soaring TO an immense
height, makes for its home, it is of
course impossible to say. The pigeon is
not the only animal which possesses
this peculiar power of finding its way
back from long distance to the spot it
has previously left. Dogs, cats, horses,
COWS, foxes, and many kinds Of birds,
have done this, often by a route never
before traversed, and indeed the migra-
ton o. birds of passage 10 foreign chimes
is no less remarkable exercise Of this
faculty than any of the others. The
subject has for ages deeply interested
- Il 10
plain in various ways how these feats
are performed But the problem still
remains unsolved, although various
theories have been started upon it, and
the only conclusion at which we can
ever arrive with certainty is this: that
Providence has bestowed upon certain
birds and animals an instinct which, as
we do not possess it, we can never un-
derstand.
1t seems clear that the desire for food
and its attachment to the place of its
birth, or, more particularly, TO the spot
where il is bringing up its young, are
the means by which the capacities of
the pigeon are made useful to man for
it is always necessary to carry the bird
away from one or other of these places
before 1t is sent on an errand, and to no
other will it return when left to itself.
But by what landmarks its course is di-
rected if, as is generally supposed, the
sight is the sense of first importance in
these journeys, is to us utterly unknown.
In short distances we can very we'll un-
derstand that the keen eyesight of the
bird might be sufficient to enable it TO
descry its destination, but it can scarcely
be believed, however powerful their
vision may be, however far.seeing their
eyes, that these birds can see for hun
dreds of miles, over mountains and
hills, forests and seas, to the end Of the
journey on which they are bound. 1t
is well known that a pigeon cannot un-
dertake a journey by night, and also
that fog greatly endangers the success
of its mission; and from this it seems
pretty evident that keen sight is an
essential element in its flight.

I" Give il a Name, 1 Beg"

A name to be really name ought to
belong to one possessor. There Is no
sense in his sharing il with dozens of
other people. But parents seldom look
at things in this light. They do not
consider the value of their offspring of
definite title, which shall nominally
distinguish them from the rest of man
kind, but give them names which please
their parental fancies or inclination,
without regard to the future needs Of
the little creatures. Thus is continually
increased that dreadful crop of Johns,
Williams and Marys which threaten to
overwhelm and render useless the no.
menclature of civilization. We speak adj
visedly. We do not nowadays ma.
terially increase our stock of surnames.
They must remain at about the present
level while their possessors increase with
the increase of the census. What, then,
can we do but vary our Christian names.
These are left entirely to our choice and
judgment, and there is no reason why
they should not be made to those who
must wear them all their lives. And a
good name-without any reference to
reputation-is SO very valuable indeed,
that every man and woman is entitled
to one. The law takes care that ships
and streets and towns shall have dis
tinctive titles, and there are even rules
in force to prevent confusion of names
among race-horses and fancy cattle.
But the poor babies are left to the whims
and fancles of their parents, who from
vanity or hope of gain, from the desire
to please some friend or relative, or from
admiration of some noted person, give
their children names already owned
Christian names, surnames, and abby
numbers of other people in their own
family and elsewhere. The practice of
using family name as the given name
is an excellent one, if said family name
is applied judiciously; but this business
of naming children "for" or "after"
other members of family ought to be
stopped by law. 1t is often compli.
ment to the older owner of the name,
but it is an imposition upon the child,
who has right TO n name all its own.
Handsome or not, let it be distinctive.
We would rather be called Brompton
Stolumite Higgs than G.. w. Mont
morenci. If there were any other male
Montmorencis, it is ten to one some of
them would be c. w. too. We know a
leading journalist in a neighboring city
who was suspected of being concerned
in cheating wool-merchants, and was,
at the sarne time, avoided by a large
portion of his relations because of an
improper and secret marriage, when all
the time il was another man OF his name
who cheated in wool, and still another
who had sought the secret altar. One
Of the most accomplished writers of the
day is often credited with the most
mournful trash because several other
persons who write for the papers have
exactly the same name.

The Chicago Newspaper Union "A
Prosperous Institution.

A correspondent writes as follows
from Chicago:
AT the time of the great fire which
swept over Chicago one year ago, and
reduced the fair proportions of the
Western metropolis to mass Of rub
bish and ashes, the CHICAGO NEWSPAPER
UNION were preparing to move into
their new building, on the South Side.
They had just fitted up, at large ex.
pense, an elegant and commodious office
in marble palace fronting the old
Custom House, on Monroe street, and
another week would have found them
located there and, of course, all their
machinery, presses and material, con-
shutting ono of the most perfect print
ing establishments in the Western
country, would have been destroyed by
that terrible storm of flame which
swept INTERESTINGLY and unpityingly
over the doomed city.
Fortunately the building which they
occupied in the West Division, and
which they were about to exchange tor
more commodious quarters on the South
Side, was beyond the reach of the fire
fiend. 1t was the only printin Soffice
of any magnitude that escaped the al
most universal wreck and ruin. OF
course the concern was not OF sufficient
capacity to undertake the herculean
task Of printing all the numerous daily
papers in the city. But it certainly did
all that possibly could be done under
the circumstances in lending helping
hand to its stricken contemporaries. Its
proprietors generously threw its doors
open and lent the use Of its presses to
four of the large dailies. The first paper
an edition of the Evening POST printed
after the fire, was issued from the office
of the NEWSPAPER UNION on Monday
afternoon, the 10th of October, 1872,
while the flames were even yet raging,
and before the extent of the awful Ca
lamity had become generally known !;
and for several weeks thereafter the
numerous presses of the establishment
were taxed to their fullest capacity,
running night and day, in printing the
large editions of the Daily Evening Post,
Daily Republican (now Inter OCEAN,, Daily
Stats Zsitung ana Daily Union, besides
serving their own patrons as usual.
Immediately after the smoke Of the
great contlagration had cleared away
the proprietors of the UNION gave or
ders for the reconstruction of their new
building, into which, as before men
toned, they were on the eve of remov-
ing at the time of is destruction. Mean
while they have continued to occupy
their old quarters in the West Division
until within a few days past, although
sorely cramped for room. On the ami.
versary OF the destruction of Chicago
they moved into their new structure, at
ia East Monroe street, where they are
now located. The Office of the CHICAGO
NEWSPAPER UNION, as now arranged, is
model establishment. We have been
and seen, and know whereof we speak,
and we feel sure we do not exaggerate
one jot or title when we assert that it
is one of the most perfectly fitted up
and best arranged printing offices of the
kind in the country.

The Brazilians, on whose plantations
grow some of the finest oranges in the
world, make an art OF eating that deli.
cious fruit. TO enjoy an orange thor.
oughly,you should eat it in Brazilian fash.
ion you slice segment Of the flower
end deep enough to go completely
through the skin; then replacing the
segment, thrust fork through it TO the

your left hand, peel the orange with a
very sharp, small table-knife, slicing all
the skin Oft, the segment at the base of
the fork being in this operation shield

knife, dissect out the pulp Of one of the
pockets and convey it into the mouth.
