"You bet," replied the .eller with q

But the man waited. Years of expe-
nence, perhaps, had taught him. the
wonderful sublimity Of waiting. Once
the cashier appeared in the door, but
seeing the bore still there he precipitate-
" retreated. Shortly after he fed over
to the other hank to tell the cashier of
the way he had outwitted the book

the act draws hear: at1s
The thirteen States then comprising
The American colonies were represented
in the assemblage that passed the meas
ure by ffty-one members. Thirty-seyen
enjoyed the. benefits Of collegiate train
ing, twenty were lawyers, four were
physicians, five were clergymen, three
were farmers, and the remainder were
engaged in various mercantile pursuits,
except Roger Sherman. the shoemaker,
and Benjamin Franklin, who boasted of
being printer, yet was q statesman and
philosopher. Benjamin Franklin was
he-oldest among the members and Ed
ward Rntledge the youngest. Robert
Morris was the most opulent, and was
the financier of the administration, ne
gotiating extensive loans for the use of
the Government upon his personal credit.
He died in prison, having been incar.
cerated for debt; beautiful co1omen-
tary on those laws that unde no discrim-
ination between the honest but unfor-
tunate debtor and the convicted felon.
Daniel Adams was the most needy, his
impoverished condition being well
known. The management of his pc
cunisry affairs made it necessary for
him to seek burial at the public ex-
pense. Josiah Bartlett was the first to
vote for the measure, and first after
President Hancock to sign the docu-
,ment. Two Of the number, John Ad-
AIMS and Thomas Jefferson, were subse-
quently Presidents. It is remarkable
fact that these two men, having been
Presidents, associated on the committee
that framed the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, and the first recognized lead
ers OF two great political factions of
our country, died on the same day, the
4th of July, 1826-the fiftieth ami
versary OF the day upon which they had
contributed so. much to the welfare OF
their, countrymen.s Charles Carroll was
the only member that added his place
of residence, and the reason Of its being
done in, this instance is somewhat pc
cu]iar. The. Patriots that formed that
convention knew full well that BY their
action on that day they hazarded their
lives. When Carroll was signing some
one near him remarked, I" He will. get
off /; there are 90 many CAROLS they
will not know which to take" Not
SO, )" replied he, and Immediately added
"of Calrollton. He lived to see all
the memorable men with whom he acted
on that eventful day pass away, and en-
joyed the prosperity Of his country
until 1882, when he died in his ninety
fifth year. Boston Journal. 49,

Hi! didn't I tell you sol You can't get

they use is mostly q kind Of red cedar,
straighter, winter and coarser- grained
than ours; not SO red, a11d without tbs
odor of American cedar. Another kind
of wood is as fine as box-wood, but
harder, and has . large, broad, ornA-
mental grain. The roof tiles are made
Of clay mixture Of their own. Each
tile weighs about as much as one Of our
bricks. These tiles are Of peculiar con-
struction-conyoluted on one mde, the
other side slightly convoluted, tapping
under and into the convolution Of it,
neighbor, SO that the tiles are jointed
sidewise by the device Of their own con-
sruction. The correspondent did not
see that they were knitted together up
and down the roof by any joint OF catch,
but they -overlapped one another, as
American shingles do, and were fastened
to the roof by . deep underlying Of VA
ter-proof cement. He remarked to the
old carpenter that such roof must be
very heavy. Heavy! Yes, indeed.
That there roof must weigh nigh onto

Death Of an Unfortunate Sovereign.

Leo KILL jex-K King Of fArmenia, has just
died in state Of wretched poverty in q
hospital at Milan. This King was stripped
of, his earthly possessions and baniBhed
from his kingdom by the Czar of Russia,
who was, ct first, charitable enough to
pay him small pension. For some time
past, however, the pension was cut OIL,
the Czr having reached the conclusion
that II was best TO let his Majesty shift
for himself in the struggle OF exiisience.
OF course, the only shifting the poor,
unacclimated outcaat could do was TO-
pawn all the little trinkets Of pest royalty
remaining to him, and this he did IN be-
half of bread. Finally, he had nothing
more to pawn, and died, leaving widow
and several very Interesting young Ar
menian ex-subjecta. A collection has
been taken up for them BY the hospital
authorities. Yet this poor sovereign was
Of very high and noble lineage, hsving
numbered among his ancestors no less
than twenty-five kings who wore CROWNS;
five were emperors Of the East, three
kings Of Jerusalem, and seventeen kings
