Value Of English Racing Stock,

The sale of the stud of Sir JOSEPH
Hawley, the most successful of turtles,
has brought e25, 575. The famous
stallion Rosicrucian was bought by Mr..
Henry Chaplin for e6. 200. Mr. Chaplin
has, 10y common report not increased
his fortune by his racing experiences,
but nevertheless his ardor apparently
knows no attainment He is a country
gentleman of an old family seated at
Blakeney, III Lincolnshire, where it
has long been of high consideration.
The founder OF the family was an al
derman of the city of London in the
time of Charles |. Mr.. Chaplin was some
years ago engaged to the present cele-
brated Warehouses of Hastings, then
Lady Florence Paget, but few days
before the marriage was to have taken
place, she was clandestinely united to
Lord Hastings, who prematurely ended
a miserable career in 1868. In 1870 she
married Sir George Chetwynd, but has
no children by either husband. Mr..
Chaplin, who Is thirty three, remains
unmarried. He is a member of Parlia-
ment for Lincolnshire, and has once or
twice spoken very effectively. He has
two brothers IN business, OF whom one
spent the greater part of the last three
years In New York. His only sister is
wife of Lord Folkestone, eldest son of
the Earl of Radnor.

no New tIrar ROy

The ingenious person who invented
the cigar box for the purpose of pro-
tecting the Government against fraud
on the part of dealers, is destined tc
disappointment-that is, if he expected
to reap a fortune from his aforesaid
invention. 1t was claimed that by its
introduction the cover of the box could
be removed without breaking the
stamp, but not the cigars. At meet
ing of cigal dealers held in New York
on Monday, the chairman, after ex-
planning the arrangement of the new
box. one of which was exhibited, said
it was no Improvement over the old
plan, and those who wished to defraud
would be able to do so quite as easily.
The increased cost of the new box, BIZ
careful computation, would increase
the cost of all cigars from 80 cents to
81 per Loco. The Government would
not be the gamer, although it would
impose tax on the manufacturing
Interest and on parties interested in
the cigar trade at 81, 600, 900 per annum.
Those facts will undoubtedly have
weight in settling the decision of the
Government in regard to the adoption
of the invention, which, in point of
fact, seems to be useless.

A Dead Baby.
BY MISS MfrLOCH

MI SIS NJ u l. { II
Little soul, for such brief space that entered
In this little body straight and chilly
Little life that tluttered and departed
Like moth from unopened liiv,
Little being without name or nation
Where is now thy place among creation?
Little dark dashed eyes, Enclosed never,
Little mouth, by earthly food ne'er tasted,
Little breast that just once heaved, and settled
In eternal slumber, white and sainted-
Child, shall in future children faces
See some pretty look that thine retraces?
Whence didst come, and whittier take thy
journey,
Little soul of me aud mine created?
Must thou lose us, and we thee, forever,
O strange life. by minutes only dated?
BY new flesh assuming. Just to prove us.
In some other babe return and love us
Idle questions all yet our beginning,
Like our ending, rests with the Life-sender,
with whom Taught is lost, and naught spent
vainly
Unto HIM this little one | render,
Hide the tace-the tiny coin cover:
SO on" first dream, our ii vt hope-is over !

A Birthday Book.
The Boston Advertiser saws

l. uC oootou AttNG1blStE says
An eminent clergyman of this city.
who Is debarred from pulpit-labor by
physical infirmlty, says the Literary
World, has improved his leisure by
the elaboration of an idea which Is
really unique. 1t was suggested to
him by the custom of making birthday
present. which, in many cases, are
books. 1t seemed to him that vol
ume might be prepared especially APP
propriate for this service and for fifteen
years he has been working, at odd mo-
ments, to that end. He divides the
life of man into periods, and into these
gathers facts illustrative of them
biographical particulars of men and
women who did such and such things
at certain ages, etc, interspersed with
pertinent reflections and lessons. The
book Will, Of course, be suited to all
of us are embraced within the span of
human life; and, moreover, It can
never grow stale, but will be as valua-
bic in 1913 as in the current year. 1t
is likely that it will be given to the
public during next autumn.

zeal and vigilance. Perhaps "Maior Edgar

But it hardly seems Necessary to enlist

Besides doing hss duty with honesty and

must devote great deal of time to writing

articles. 1t doesn't seem to US a matter of
very great importance whether an officer is

veloped in q sheet of flames, which reached
three feet above her head. Jerry Jolden
came out of his house with a quilt, which
the men quickly wrapped about her to
smother the flames. Mrs. w. II. Houghton
threw out q wooden blanket, but with all
their efforts the fire was not extinguished
till her clothing, including every garment,
was codsnmed Only about one quarter
of the hat that she wore was left uncon-
sumed. As soon as the fire burned out
Miss Ryon walked into Mr.. Houghton's, in
nude state, sat down upon chair and
asked for something to cover her, saying,
az am terribly burned"
Drs. Sherman, Southwick, Clilds and
Benton were summoned and did every
thing that medical skill could suggest, but
in vain. The accident occurred about half
past four and at eight she expired. Her
limbs, body, arms and face were burned to
u crisp, so that the flesh peeled oflin places,
yet through all this suffering she retained
her senses and conyersed with those about
her till few moments before death came
to relieve her. 1t is not known how the
fire communicated to her dress. One sup
position is that she stepped upon u match
and thus ignited it; another is that it was
communicated from Il cigar stump. Miss
Ryon was engaged to be married to II. ii.
Bosworth, clerk in Chas. Ashlcy's store.
Mr.. Besworth was absent at Lisbon to at
tend the funeral of Il sister. He was sum-
moncd to her bedside and reached it an
hour before her death. She retained heI
senses as long as life fickered in the socket
and gave directions as to her funeral and
| other matters.
