The Queens Horses.

AT Windsor it is considered the cor
rect thing, after the inspection of the
royal apartments and chapels, to visit
the royal stables. Admittance to the
stable-yard is gained by the registration
of the visitors name at the yard gate.
Why this formality should be observed
l do not know, for it would hardly en-
able the authorities to find any person
disposed to steal anything, and, more
over, there is nothing to tempt the
most incurable kleptomaniac. Noman
of the least discriminating taste in
horsetlesh could be induced to take a
present of any of the twenty or thirty
royal hacks that are usually kept in
the Windsor stables. A mile in six
minutes would stagger most of them,
and an India rubber jockey would not
be safe in riding any of them over a
patch of hstles, much less q post-and-
rail fence Nearly all of these ring
boned and spawned chargers appear to
have come to the royal stables at the
coronation of their venerable mistress,
and remained there ever since in royal
seclusion. Francisco Chronicle.

paid the amount after waiting two
years for his money. An Austrian gen.
tleman was robbed at hotel where he
was stopping of property to a consider
able amount. The servants were all
examined by the police and on was Sc
lected as the probable thief. The ho-
tel proprietor well knew the honesty of
this man and gave him a characterw which
would have exonerated him from the
charge. But no, the police determined
that he was the thief, and actually fog
ged him to the comfortable number of
800 lashes. Scarcely was this received
before the true thief was discovered to
be quite another person; the poor SER
want, instead of being consoled for the
severe flagellation he had received, was
sent out of the city in order that the
business might be forgotten.

Bill Nye's Philosophy.

To the young the future has a roseate
hue. The roseate hue comes high, but
we have to use it in this place. To the
young there spreads out a glorious
range of possibilities. After the youth
has indorsed for an intimate friend
few times, and purchased the paper at
the bank himself later on, the horizon
won't seem to horizon so tumultuously
as it did aforetime. remember at one
time of purchasing such piece of ac-
commodation paper at bank, and /
still have it. l didn't need it any more
than cat needs eleven tails at one and
the same time. Still the bank made it
an object to me, and secured it. Such
things as these harshly knock the fluff
and bloom off the cheek of youth, and
prompt us to turn the strawberry
bottom side up before we purchase it.
Youth is gay and hopeful, age is cover
ed with experience and scars where the
skin has been knocked off and had to
grow on again. To the young dollar
looks large and strong, but to the mid
dle-aged and the old it is weak and in
efficient. When we are in the heyday
and fizz of existence, we believe every
thing, but after awhile we murmur:
"What's that you're givin' u.s." or
words of like character. Age brings
caution and lot of shop-worn expert
ence purchased at the highest market
price. Time brings vain regrets and
wisdom teeth that can be left in a glass
OF water over night. The hgleside.

The death of Gen. Stager, at the age Of 60,
which occurred at Chicago on March 26, re-
moves one of the greatest organizers and
managers the electric telegraph has had. He
began work at the age of l6 as printer,
with Henry O'Reilly, who afterwards became
pioneer in the building and operating of
telegraphs, taking Stager with him. When
O'Reilly connected Harrisburg and Phila-
delphia with q line of wire he gave Stager
charge Of the Office at Lancaster. This was
in 1916. Here he exhibited such strong execu-
tive ability and resource that he was chosen
superintendent Of the Mississippi company's
line, which was projected to connect Buffalo,
N. Y, with Louisville, KY. The war found
him in control of the telegraph systems which
he had extended through Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois. These were seized by the governors
Of the respective states for military purposes,
he being retained in charge. Gen. Mcclellan
secured his services to organize the first mill
tary telegraph used in war, and subsequently
the secretary of war appointed him chief of
the United States military telegraph. Here
he devised a system of telegraphing in cipher
which bafiied the most expert Confederate
telegraphers TO translate. Following the war
came the consolidation Of the principal tele-
graph companies, of which Gen Stager was
offered the superintendency This he de-
clined, but accepted charge of the central of
the three divisions into which the company
was divided In 1859 he removed his head
quarters to Chicago and founded the Western
Electric Manufacturing company, besides
leading in the development Of electrical ap-
pliances in the great west

Brilliant Wedding.

One of the largest and most pleasant we'd dings which have occurred in Adams, Mass, for long time was the marriage of Caroline Marsh Hungerford to Silas R. Mills at the Congregational church Tuesday afternoon at o'clock The bride is the daughter of Rev. Edward Hungerford, pastor of the Congre- gational church, and the groom is the son of B. F. Mills, of South Williamstown Silas R. Mills is of the firm of Plunkett & Mills i'll Greylock and is also interested in the Greylock mills, and is one of the fore most young business men in the county. The church was beautifully decorated with evergreens and flowers. An evergreen arch dotted with red berries spanned the space in front of the altar. At it's center hung an ever green bell, under which the ceremony was performed by the father of the bride, as sisted by Rev. Carlton P. Mills, the groom's brother. The bride was given away by her mother The best man was Dr. Rosnen P. Collin, of New York. The ushers were Fred Buell. Hungerford, brother of the bride, who is a senior in Yale college, Arthur Ga dy and Judge Lawrence of North Adams and Frank Dutton of Pittsfeld. The maids of honor were Miss Charlotte and Miss Kath- erine Hungerford, the sisters of the bride. Professor Blodgett presided at the organ, dis coursing sweet strains during the ceremony Among the guests was Mrs. Twining, of New Haven.
