The scene OF the story is i in Iceland, late in

"Once," said he, "a long time ago, be-

Lord LysiOn nlitteu.

Lord Lytton, Viceroy of India, seems
to have been greatly taken with a span
gled circus-rider at Calcutta, Victoria
Cooke by name. The Times of India
saws: "The Viceroy, who had been six
times to see her, expressed a wish to be
present at her benefit" After a glowing
description of the crowded and enthusi-'
astic audience that on this memorable
occasion came together, more than five
thousand people being present; and sew
eral hundred turned away for lack OF ac-
commodltion, the official chronicle con-
tinues: "When Miss Cook retired from
her last scene she met with perfectly
stunning recall. Hundreds of bouquets
were thrown to her from all sides, to.
eether with huge floral wreaths and stars,
and all manner OF curious presents, IN
Guiding pair Of white doves.
These heterogeneous things wer all
massed in pyramids at her feet, and she
was then presented on behalf OF Lord
Lytton and few admirers with great
gold medal, struck exprc sly for the oc-
casion, and bearing a description elo-
quent of the charms and the remarkable
fascination she has exercised over Cal
cutta society for the last two months,
The massive gold medal given to thi'
lady bears the following inscription;

The Ss mboii~m of Rings.


It is rather pity that the symbolism
of rings is dying out, or dead. When
was a boy, it WIS the fashion for men on
the lookout for wives, to wear ring Oh
the first finger of the left hand; if they
we're engag d to be married, they wore
the ring ON the second finger; il married,
on the third; and on the fourth they re-
solved upon bachelorhood. Thus the
most sensitive and modest yourg lady
might always with ease detect the matri-
monial disposition of man by glance.
But this fashion being gone, girl has to
make love to man before she can ascer-
tain his views. This is hard upon the
girl, and often very hard upon the. man.
The fashion, in my opinion, should be re-
yiyed.

THE plucky little school ma'ams of
America deserve a great deal of credit
and very often they get it. Recently
they were the subject of discussion in
the British House of Commons, and in
reply tc a snoering remark made by Mr..
Mills as to their efficacy, Mr. Plunkrtt, a
gallant Irishman, arose in their defense.
He said he had been in the United States
and there studied the subject, and eX-
pressed his opinion that lit would be a
great ben fit to this country il we could
import two hundred or three hundred of
those American women teachers"

CYRUS W4FiELp who was interviewed

CYRUS W%FiELD, who was interviewed
upon his proposed monumental slab on
the spot of Andres execution, said that
if the reporter would point out the loca-
ton OF Satan's execution he would do
lust as much for His Satanic Majesty
himself, as it would certainly be marking
a historical location. The devil Is not
dead, as Mr.. Fields remarks intimate,
but on the contrary, daily events te,tify
that he never enjoyed more heathfnl
activity. If at any time such joyful
event as his execution should occur, Mr.
Field could not apply to more reliable
source for Information on the subject
than the indefatigable newspaper re
porter, who could at once point out t.
him the proper spot on which to plan
his historical tombstone.

of these Ute Indians, will be convicted o
