Nv HISTORIC LILLE.


In St. Johns Lodge, A. f. A. NJ, Of New
ark, N. j., there is ali old black-lettef Bible,
printed In 1549. This Bible is of Thomas
Matthew'S translation a foli0 In the Gothic
letter, and was printed by Ihcm Daye and
William Seres.' The title-page to the BIZ
bic is gone, but the title-page to the New
Testament il there and perfect, with the date
154o, and it IS otherwise In good condition,
and having the last Leaf with the colophon and
printers names. It was presented to the
lodge in tho last century ~ ia emigrant from
tho mother country, the omigfant having
previously affiliated with the lodge. IN the
year 1925 it was stolen from the lodge, and
remained away for twenty-five years, and I'M
1850 it was traced to Philadelphia, and
finally recovered and returned to the lodge in
1857. During the wanderings of these thirty
two years it lost its first title-page, but also
gained something, in having ptsted OF tho
inside Of the cover a rare engraved portrait of
Washington, one which the writer, although
having seen many collections of Washington's
portraits, never remembers seeing before.
At the time Washington had his headquarters
in Morristown, j., a part of the Jewels and
furniture of st. Johns Lodge was loaned to
the travelling lodge, = formed n the part Of
Colonial army then wintering at Morristown,
Among the things so loaned was this Bible,
and during the winter, General the Marquis
of Lafayette, thcn with the army. was en-
tered; passed, and raised to the sublime de-
gree Of q Master Mason. This Bible was
used in the ceremonies, and Lafayette took his
| obligation upon it. 1t is known that WASH
ington ofiicated as Master on the occasion.
The associations connected with this Bible
make is an interesting object to all Masons,
while its age and antiquity give its value to
tho bool-lover and antiquarian. Lo~ndes

and further says that there are copies of this
impression in the Lambeth, British Museum,
Bodleian, and other libraries. A copy, with
one leaf wanting, sold as auction for e6.10s !;
other copies sold for yarions sums, one as high
as e40. The facts in reference to the Bible
having been used during the making" of
Lafayette we've obtained from several old
} members of the Lodge, one of these members
being now eighty years of age. He; with the
others, had the circumstances related TO him
y by other earlier members who assisted at or
were known to those who did so assist, at
: the cercfhonies above related. 1t Is anneces-
70 sftry to ten any member OF tho craft that in
" formation derived through Masoiis in REGARD

A PLEASANT fEMrNIsCEyCE.

The Philadelphia Press says : On Christ
mas day, 1776, Washington and the Continental
army having forced their way through the ice
blocks in the Delaware. marched upon Trcn-
ton, and routed the Hessian force which held
the capitol of New Jersey. Twelve years
later Washington again came to Trenton
this time on his way from Mount Vernon to
his Inauguration rs President i'll New York,
In the middle of the town his road lay over
n bridge that crossed tile Assanpink creek
the bridge at whose northern entrance the
defeat Of the Hessians was completed. Upon
the bridge there was then erected a triumphal
arch, bearing the inscription

cheese quickly into the large bag with the
wool, and gathering up the mouth of it, tied
it up and took his change.
"Ahi Mr.. Foster, don't trouble yourself to

the theft

them yourself. So stand away, and I'll put
it in the wagon for you"

though tie publisher wait Whole year, re-
minds us of the old story of preacher and
one of his members. The minister waited up
on the congregation for the purpose of raising
small collection. Approaching an old BROTH
CT who was famous for his loud profession of
Christianity, the following conversation took
place "Why my dear brother, didn't
think you were preaching for money, but for
the benefit of immortal souls" "Ah," said
the dealer in pulpit literature, {" can't sub

Milton used to sit leaning back obliquely in
an easy chair, with his legs flung over the ell
bow Of it. He frequently composed lying in
bed in tle morning; but when he could not
sleep. and lay awake whole nights, not one
verse could lie make. At other times his un.
premeditated lines flowed easily with GER
tain impetus then, whatever the hour, he
rang for his daughter to commit them to pa

AN. ANCIENT GRAVEYARD.

In the summer of 1857, while the writer
was attached to the exploring expedition I'M
der the command of Lieut.. Warren, he dis
covered on the Niobrara river another OF these
remarkable graveyards, in which was entomb-
cd n fauna closely allied to- yet distinct FROM
that on White river, and plainly intermediate
between that Of the latter and OF the present
period Several species of extinct canels and
a great variety of the horse family character
lied this fabna. One of these horses was
about the size of the domestic animal, While
another allied in FORM about the size OF
Newfoundland dog, was provided with three
hoofs to each foot, though the lateral hoofs
were rudimental DR.. Ledy has already iden-
tilted twenty-scyen species of the horse family,
which are thus known to have lived on this
continent brior to the advent of man-about
three times as many as are now found living
throughout the world Among the carnivo-
ras there were several species of foxes and
wolves. five varieties of the cat family, and
three species of the hyena. Some of the
skulls of the tiger like animals exhibited the
marks of terrible conflicts with the liyenas.
Among the rodents were porcupinc, small
beaver, rabbit mouse, DC
The pachydcrms, or thick skinned animals,
were very numerous, and are of the greatest
interest, from the fact that none of them are
living ON the continent at the present time
Five species of the rhinoceros are found ; q
mastadon, an elephant and several forms
allied to the domestic hog; varying in size
from the African hippopotamus down to that
of the domestic cat. From the discovery of
this group of extinct animals we may draw
the inference that Nebraska and Dakota were
the homes of a race closely allied to those in
habiting Asia and Africa at the present time.
From their characteristics we are led to be-
lieve that the climate during that period was
considerably warmer than it is ndw The in
ference is also drawn that America, instead of
being what is usually called, the "New

AS the General rode under the arch he was
met by u company of the matrons of Trenton,
accompanied by their daughters, dressed in
white, singing an ode composed for the occa-
sion, and strcwing flowers in his path as he
advanced barelieaded in their midst The
arch was preserved in remembrance Of an
incident rendered doubly memorable by the
letter which Washington addressed to tho
ladies Of Trenton before he left their town,
and which may be read in ''Marshalls Life

when Lafayette was received at the New Jer-
sey State House, in 1924, the arch was again
set up to grace the reception of Westinghouse
friend and fellow soldier. And now, when
another half century has passed away, the re-
mains Of the old trophy are once more to be
brought to light, on the occasion of the
initial movement of the women of New Jer-
sey in aid of the Centennial Celebration of
Independence. This is to be on the 25th of
this month, when the ladies' at Trenton, led
by Mrs. William l.. Dayton, will open the
