The Duke of HamiIton's FroIic.
From the Whitehall Review.]

From the Whitehall Review.1
Speaking of the Duke of Hamilton,
no man, for years past, has left reputa-
ton for greater eccentricity at Oxford
than his grace. The following anecdote,
however, will prove that the frolics were
none of them malicious, but merely the
results of the hot blood of youth:
One evening the duke went to Stan
den's and bought the best hat he could
find. Ornamented with this brand new
head covering he lounged into grocer's
shop at st. Aldates and quietly remark
ed to the astonished assistant:
want some treacle-about bigjug
full, and [ will take it with me-"
The man, recognizing his customer
and remembering the well-known eccen-
tr1clty OF the duke, contented himself
with asking, Does your grace want it in
a pitcher?"
'No," replied the duke, carelessly,
" | don't care to be seen walking about
with a pitcher; put it in my hat p
And with thish laid his new purchase
on the counter.
The man gravely filed the Lincoln &
Bennett with treacle, and when it was
nearly brim full. the duke told him to
stop. "How much do I owe you ?" in
CURED the Premier Duke of Scotland.
The man mentioned the price; the duke
threw 95 note on the table, and as the
shopman was stopping over his drawer,
looking for change, he clapped the hat,
treacle and all, on the mans head, and
left the shop with his boon companions,
who all heartily enjoyed the joke, and
thought the man well paid for his dis
comfiture and temporary annoyance by
the present Of new hat, only partially
damaged, and flyer. If the shopkeep-
ers of Oxford are to-day as they were
then, I think many would undergo a
similar ordeal for the sake of a like re-
ward

Opening the " Neva."

One of the most interesting of ST..
Petersburg holidays is the breaking up
Of the ice in the Neva. It occurred this
year on Sunday, April 18th, and was
celebrated in the usual way Gen. KoG-
sakof, the commander of the Petropav-
lovsky fort, that stands just opposite the
Winter palace on the other side of the
Neva, crossed the river in a beautiful
gilt boat, accompanied by his staff IN
full uniform. At the middle of the river
he drew goblet of water and carried it
on golden tray to the Gar, who, sur
rounded with the highest dignitaries of
the state, received him in his palace
Congratulating him On the return of
spring, the commander presented to the
car, the earthly ruler of all Russian
lands and waters, the goblet. The GEAR
drank the water, amid the hearty cheers
of the bystanders, filed the empty COB
let with gold coins, and handed it back
to the commander. The latter then re-
turned to his fort The granite quay of
the Neva was thickly covered with peo-
pie eager to see the ceremony. On the
same day hundreds Of small boats made
their first passage of the year, carrying
the people from one side of the river to
the other

A Nice Lot of Officers.

Three robbers, armed to the teeth, re-
Gently broke into Prussian's house in
Constantinople. He gave up his watch
and $50 in Turkish money, but they
wanted more. They bound him hand
and foot, and compelled him to tell them
where they would find the key of his
business safe. This safe happened to be
in room ON the third hoo1, at the top
of the house, and thither the three rob-
bers fastened, leaving the owner bound,
and threatening to return and shoot him
if he called for assistance But as they
went upstairs, his wife, who had been
watching what was taking place from an
other room, slipped quietly in and cut
the bonds OF her husband. Aiming
themselves with revolvers, the pair
crept quietly up the stairs, came upon
the robbers, and without a word shot
down two of them. The third threw
down his weapons and begged formercy.
The Prussian bound his late assailant
fast, and leaving his wife to watch over
hjtl with loaded revolver in her hand.
fastened to the nearest police station.
There he found the officer in charge alb
sent, and on inquiring for sub-officer
was told that the latter were also away.
Thereupon the Prussian asked four of
the men to accompany him to his house
and take the bound burglar into GUS
tody. Arriving in the room where the
two men had been shot, the zaptiehs
looked at the two corpses and the pris-
oner, and recognized in the former the
two sub-oficers, and in the latter the
officer of their own guard.

With Stifed cry the MIKE shrivn1nd

With q stifled cry, the Mike shriveled
up to hideous toad Euranie drew the
net and as quickly as possible threw it
into deep pool, and thereupon she laid
great stone and marked the sign Of the
cross thereon, that it might remain closed
until the Judgment Day.
She then fastened back to the pond
and all the fish were coming out of the
pool and wriggling forward to meet her,
crying out:
Behold our deliverer, who has saved
us from the net of steel and the golden
frying-pan."
"And who will restore you to your
own proper forms,'' said she, drawing
out of her bosom the knife. But as she
was going to touch the first fish, little
green frog, with the magic bell hung
around his neck, sobbing bitterly, knelt
before her, his two tiny hands held up in
supplcation She looked and cried:
SIS it thou, Nicolaki, my love?"
"It is [, indeed, Euranie."
At the touch Of the knife he recovered
his own shape and the two embraced
tenderly, he begging and receiving par
don for his unfaithfulness. So then she
touched all the fishes, who were imme-
diately released from their enchantment
and restored to their proper forms.
Hardly was that done when up came the
little dwarf husband of the Mike, drawn
in his nest, as if it were coach, by six
crickets which had just been Matched
| from the stone eggs.
"Here I am pretty maiden" cried he,
"and am glad to be man again ill.,
stead of a hen."
He then led the lovers to the Mixes
treasure room, and loaded them with
gold and jewels. Euranie then COM
manded her staff to become winged
chariot large enough to carry off all the
enchanted.people. She and Nicolaki re-
turned to Arnak, and instead of poor
little cabin, with little cow and lean
pig, they build castle and village out.
side, and there established all the people
she had saved. The ruins of castle and
village are to be seen yet in Albania
near Arnak, where the villagers tell this
story, which they say was every word
| true in the time of it.

why, oh why, do some girls insist on
wearing that ugly little fat curl In front

bangs are lovely in comparison, and
nothing will make modest, quiet woman

surely as this hideous arrangement of

Out of the deep, my child, out of the deep!
Where all that was to be in all that was
Whired for million icons thro' the vast
Waste dawn of multitudinous eddying light
Out of the deep, my child, cut of the deepl
Thro' all this changing world OF changeless law,
And every phase of ever heightening lie,
And nine long months of ante-natal gloom,
With this last moon, this crescent-her dark orb
Touch'd with earth's hght-thou CONTEST, darling
boy;
Our own a baby in lineament and limb
Perfect, and prophet of the perfect man;
Whose face and form are hers and mine in one
Indissolubly married, like our love;
Live and be happy in myself, and serve
This mortal race, thy kin, SO well that men
May bless thee, we bless thee, young life.
Breaking with laughter from the dark: and may
The fated channel where thy motion lives
Be prosperously shaped and sway thy course
Along the years of haste and random youth
Unshattered-then full current thro' full man.
And last in kindly curves, with gentlest fall.
BY quiet fields, slowly dying power,
To that last deep where we and thou are still.

Out of the deep, my child, out of the deep,
From that great deep before the world begins
Wherein the Spirit of God moves as He will;
Out of the deep, my child, out of the deep,
From that true world within the world we see,
Whereof our world is but the bounding shore;
Out of the deep, Spirit, out of the deep,
With this ninth moon that sends the hidden sun
Down yon dark sea- thou contest darling boy.
For in the world, which is not ours, They said:
1Let us make man" and that which should be man,
From that one light no man can look upon,
Drew to this shore Lit by the suns and moons
And all the shadows. dear Spirit, half lost
In thine own shadow, and this feshly sign
That thou art thou-who waiiest being born
And banshed into mystery, and the pain
OF this Observation-Disclosures world.
Among the numerable-innumerable
Sun, and sun, thro finite-infnite space
In fnite-infinite dme-Our mortal veil
And shattered phantom of the Infinite One,
Who made thee inconceivably thysef
Out of his whole word-self and all in all
Live though, and of the grain and husk, the grape
And ivyberry, choose and still depart
From death to death thro' life and life, and lind
Nearer and ever nearer Him who wrought
Not matter, the tinite-infnite.
But this main miracle, that thou art thou,
With power on thine own act and on the world,
THE HUMAN CRY
Hallowed be thy name-Hallelujah!
Infinite Ideality
Unreasonable Reality
Infinite Personaltyi
Hallowed be Thy name-Hallelujahi
