Lost Colonies OF Greenland.

Greenland was first seen by the OLD
Morse navigator, Gunnbjorn, IN 87e
A. D., but the first European to land on
its shores was Eric, the Red, banished
jar, or chief, of Iceland, son of the iarl
of Jadar, in Norway. This daring ex-
plorer rounded Cape Farewell and
sklrted the west coast as far as the point
where Julianshaab now stands, on the
inlet of Ericsford, which he named.
This was In 1884. In 9S5 he set sail
from Iceland with twenty-five ships and
a large company of emigrants, men,
women and children. Only fourteen
vessels of this feet reached Ericsfiord.

able distance north of this, but none on
the east coast Of Greenland, as was be-
ieved until very recently. A consider
aole trade between these colonies and
Norway, Iceland and America grew up.
and 1t Is said that at one time there
were over 300 farms and numerous vii
lagos between Cape Farewell and Disco
Island. At first the colonists worshiped
according to the ancient Scandinavian
Ialth, as taught by the Sagas, but in
time Christianity was introduced.
churches and monasteries were built,
and Arnold was consecrated first Bishop
OF Greenland in 1126. A. u. Thus far.
and until 1915, the Government of the
country was essentially republican, but
IN the latter year the people became SUBJ
Ject to King Hakon Hakonsen of Nor
way. About 1910 so the Skhalinger.
or Esquimallx, made their first recorded
appearance in Greenland, and from this
time the colonists suffered from the nos
tillties Of these people, from pestilence
IN the form of "the black DEATH" and.
finally, from European pirates, who. ac-
cordlng to Pope Nicholas ", descended
upon them about 1920 with fire and
sword. By these several agencies these
unfortunate people were utterly des-
troyed or became absorbed among the
natives; and they have ever since been
alluded to as "the lost colonies of
Greenland. Subsequently, until 1921.
the country was seen only by whalers,
chiefly Dutch. In the year Just named
Hans Egede undertook the Christianiza-
ton of the natives, and from this event
dates the permanent settlement and
present civilization of Greenland.

Discipline.

It is said that one of the chief causes
of the failure of the famous Sullivan
farm in Illinois, the last small section of
which has just been closed out, was the
Governors too rigid discipline, not
founded in common sense. The farm.
ten miles long and seven miles wide,
was divided into three sections. If, for
instance, the first of gang of plows
broke down, none of the others were al
lowed to pass it, but all had to wait I'M
til the damage was repaired. No over
seer could dismount for moment to
perform any manual labor, however
urgent, and no employee, of whatever
grade, was permitted to do even the
most trivial thing not properly belong
ing to his department.. The great ma
chine had no elasticity, and so it broke
down.-Erch0ssge.

The library is the handsomest apart
ment at Abbotsford. It is fifty feet in
length by thirty in breadth, and has an
immense bay-window that affords a
charming glimpse of the Tweed. The
ceiling is carved after designs from Mel
rose Abbey. There are twenty thousand
volumes here and in the study. The
book cases were made under Sir Wal
ter's direction by his own workmen.
Some Of them contain rare and curious
old books and MSS. that are carefully
guarded under lock and key. Here. on
the wall, is the portrait of Sir Walters
eldest son, who was Colonel of the Fiji
teenth Hussars. He went out to Madras
in 1889, and was very popular and eff
Gent officer, but he soon fell victim
to the fatal climate of India and died on
the return voyage to England, whittier
he had been ordered on account of his
health. Here, too, is the bust of Sir
Walter at the age of forty-nine. by
Chantrey. There are chairs exquisitely
wrought, from the Borghese Palace at
Rome, the gift of the Pope silver urn
upon stand of porphyry. from Lord
Byron and an elegant cabinet and set
of chairs presented by King George ~.

When this royal friend was Regent, he
invited Scott to dine with him in Lon

DOre9S Struggles.

The celebrated French artist Gustave
Dore had a hard struggle to gain repu-
tation and its result-bread. A writer
in an English magazine describes how
Dore "awOke one morning and found
himself famous :"
1 remember one night after the soiree
we strolled along the boulevards and
walked and dawdled as you can only on
those long, straight, wide bouIeyards,
and he told me the history of his life.
He had been obliged to borrow money
to beable to get his illustrated s'Dante"
in print, and when he had spent Is, 600
francs, for which he had engaged him
self for 80, 900, he had to borrow again
at $50 per cent. to finish the edition.
At last. when he took the work to
Halchette's, that great publisher told
him: my dear sir, for twenty-four
years have I been q publisher, and !
have never made mistake is a
failure, thrown-away money. I would
not take it at 10 francs apiece"
Dore said:
CATER so much sacrifice and patient
suffering, convinced that I must sue
coed, to hear an experienced man like
Halchette say this was frightful. Any
how, being set-up and engraved, I got
ten copies bound and asked Ralchette
on my own account to exhibit them at
his depot.
Barely two days had passed when !
received the following note Vsctoire
0srSvez- sslis I'm Gne" CVictory,
come quickly-I am donkeylO
The work had an immediate and
great success. We had 100 copies quick
~ bound, and from that moment the
success OF this and all my other Illus.
trated works was guaranteed"

In q Hurry.

Glen. Harvey was a very dignified
man, and was punctilious in regard to
all matters of drill and etiquette. One
evening, when in camp at Camp Verde,
in Texas, just before dress parade, he
found he had forgotten his handkerchief.
and told an orderly to hurry back to his
quarters and get it. :
The orderly touched his cap and
started for the quarters, several hundred
yards distant. After he had proceeded
short distance, remembering that there
was no time to lose, he broke into atrot
"See that scoundrel running as if the
Indians were after him. IF there is any
thing l hate, it is to see soldier run
ming instead of marching properly.
Here, my man." continued Harvey to
another soldier, ego after that fellow,
and tell him I say to walk"
The second soldier started after t. /,
first, but as the first one kept on rum
ming, the second one saw his only chance
to deliver the message was to hurry ND.
so he, too, broke into a run.
Here, sergeant, go after that man
and tell him If he don't stop running,
I'll hang him up by the thumbs"
The sergeant started out in q brisk
walk, but Is his predecessor had q coed
start he too. began to run as fast as he
could.

Harvey. "T1l show 'em, and tuckina
his sword under his arm, he started IN
pursuit as fast as he could run, but sud.
denly remembering his dignity he came
to halt, and walked stifay and slowly
back to the place where the dyees parade
was to come of.
