sistIng OF liquors and cigars, for which

Anecdotes for the Centennial.

When Laytayette was in America in 49,
II, he stormed the country. He was so
full Of revolutionary anecdotes that he
overfowcd the parties given in his honor
At one of these parties, in Washington
city, he said that "Knyphauscn, the Hes
sian general that commanded the mercena-
~ troops in the British service, when on
his passage TO crush the rebellion became
greatly annoyed at the time consumed in
the voyage. Finally, he approached the
captain and asked if it was not possible
that the ship might have sailed past Amer
lea in the night" Lafayette said that the
American General Lord Sterling was the
vainest man who ever lived that on one
occasion when a soldier, who had been
condemned to be shot, Was passing Sterl-
ing's tent on his way to execution, cxclaim-
ed: "Lord! pardon me, o Lord! pardon
me"-a prayer addressed to the deity, and
Sterling, starting up, exclaimed: I'LL be
ID if do" He said that during the
revolutionary war party Of Pennsylvania
horse and party of scouting Indians sur.
prised each other, and that such was thei1
conversation that they ran away, each par
~ running 800 miles before stopping. Col
Gradon, the Pennsylvania officer, states the
same thing in his Memoirs" work thai
should be reprinted. There were more
children named for Lafayette than any mar
in America.

place for poor man. The whole thing
is overrated, although the climate is very
fine. The way for you and for everyone
who wants to know, is to come and see
for yourself. Business is very dull, and
no merchants, with but say two exceptions
are making any money. Still, if man
can live without much money, this is a
fine place to do it, and you can loan mon
ey at high rates. Miss Allison and Judge
White and wife are here. Mr. White is
making money in real estate. Don't be.
lieve all you read or hear, but take trip
out and see for yourself: Climate is
fine although VIC get some cold ea::
