One Of the most anomalous, rs well
as one OF the oldest towns in the repub-
lie is Marblehead, which is often visited
from mere curiosity. 1t is losing it's
distnctiveness year by year, yielding to
the rapidly growing homogeneity of
modern civilization. Its position, on u
rocky, irregular peninsula, projecting
into Massachusetts bay, is striking and
picturesque. Noted from the early set
Element of New England-it was
originally part of Salem--for the en-
terprise of its inhabitants in the fisher
les, these have been largely relinquished
of late years for the more prOsaic occu-
patton OF making boots and shoes.
Many of the first settlers were from
Guernsey, Jersey and other channel
islands, and for long while their
peculiarities of speech almost constitute
eel dialect. This has greatly dimin-
ished with generations, hut it is still so
observable that Bostonians and New
Workers who go there refer to the
natives often M semi-civiliZed. They
are, and always have been, II strong and
sterling race, conspicuous for Their i'll
dependence and combativeness. The
town contributed 1000 men to the
revolutionary army, aud at the close of
the struggle there We're 600 widows
and 1000 fatherless children in popu-
lation falling below 1000. The histor-
ic frlgate Constitution was chiefly man.
ned during the war of 1912 with Mar
bleheaders, who also fitted out great
many privateers. At the declaration
of peace nearly 500 of the citizens were
held in England IA prisoners of war.
When the rebellion had broken out
there were more volunteers for the
Union cause, it is sad, than from any
place of its size in the entire North.
A century or 30 since it was the Sec
ond town in the State as to the popu-
latiOn and wealth, and to-day it is only
an insignificant village of the old Com
monWealth.

Anywhere to Get Away.

Mr.. Greeley has been invited to lie.
liver lecture at village "A few miles
from Chicago. He appointed the time
for Saturday evening, but was dismayeC
ut finding when there that there was nj
train to take him back him back to Chi
cago before Monday. His first question
of the gentleman who was awaiting hin
was il there was no way in which he
could get ont Of town the next day.
"Not by "A public conveyance" 1t
was told.
"No boats?"
"Not ut this season Of the year." DE.
cember.)
A sharp crOss-questiouing ELECTED the
information that IN occasional propeller
stopped at one of the piers during the
winter months, but there was no GER
tainty of such nm event occurring. Sun
day morning Mr.. Greeley was seen
down at the shore looking iongingly as
shipwrecked sailor for sail No
boat appearing, his host prevailed on
him to go to church with him. "We
had in our little church, says the writer,
that day II clergyman to whom Mr..
Greeley might have listened with profit
if not with pleasure. Listening, how
ever, was not Mr.. Greeley's intention.
Sitting himself in corner Of a pew, he
went to sleep and, slept on until near
the close of the sermon. Suddenly the
whistle OF propeller sounded through
the air. The great editor started, prick
ed up his ears, then jumped up without
II glance even at his host, walked down
the aisle and out OF the church, and was
seen no more by the inhabitants. After
warns it was learned that the propeller
was on its way to Milwaukee, not Chi
ngo. But anywhere to get away, said
Mr.. Greeley"

Two Eccentric Men.
From tho Detroit Free Press.


One day last week, as Griswold street
lawyer had Just finished lacking up q
sign Of "Shut this door," where he
thought it would do the most good, an
oldish man, having sour expression ON
his face, came up stairs. The instant he
saw the sign he said:
"All bosh, sir--all bosh. lnever pay
attention to such signs"
"But other people do" replied the
lawyer.
"Let EN- do no then. am just &C.
centric enough to leave your door open
when j go out"
And no he did. He walked once or
twice around the room, made u few ill.,
quiries, and walked out. When he
reached the street boy overlook, him,
and asked him to return to the room ON
important business. He climbed pack
up stairs, and the lawyer asked him:
"Did You leave your gold-head.'d
cane hereT
"No, sir; it IL here" replied the caller.
as he held it UP.
"Ah! 30 it is. i was just eccentric
enough to think that this stove poker
was your gold-headed cane. All right
no harm dOne--good-bye"
When the stranger went down stairs
he left the print Of his heel on every
step.
