on the st. Mary's river, a branch of
the Potomac. Last summer S.. Mary S
City celebrated its 250th anniversary.
It was at ST. Mary's City that Lord
Baltimore and his party landed when
he settled Maryland. To-day there
is but one family residence here.
During the school season there are
about fifty young ladies here. There
are but few signs of the lost city.
Here and there, there are yet to be
seen traces of the foundation walls
Of the little city that was; but even
these are about obliterated At this
place was built the first state house IN
Maryland Years afterward Annapo-
lis was made the capitol. The outlines
of the old state house are still visible.
Many OF the imported brick, which
came from England, were used in the
construction of the church that was
built many years after the capitol was
changed to Annapolis. Others were
used in building the academy. I'M
ported bricks were used IN the con-
struction of many Of the original
houses III this country. They are
about one-third longer, a half inch
wider, and q half-inch thicker than
the modern-made brick. They are
also much harder, and have more the
appearance of stone than the red clay
brick which is now IN use.
The mulberry tree under which
Lord Baltimore offered prayer upoa
his arrival 251 years ago, still stands,
though q great many branches have
been cut off, from time to time, to be
worked up in canes and other relics,
SO dear to Marylanders, as well as to
some others.

Tee Industry IN India.

In letter to the Ceylon Observer,
by Colonel Money, OF London, are
found some interesting facts in regard
to the tea industry of India. Fifteen
years ago Indian teas were hardly
known in London, and thirty years
ago the cultivation had just begun III
India. The enterprise was inaugur~
ated by the government and literally
encouraged, yet q number of years
elapsed before it met with any success.
Now there are 800, 900 acres in tea,
aud 81 600, 900 pounds are sent to Eng
land, or more than one>third of her
total consumption. The following
table shows that while the imports
from China are rather on the decline,
those from India are advancing with
giant strides:

OVertaXing the Brain

The editress of Harper's Bazaar
treats in her usual clear and sensible
style the subject OF nervous diseases.
She does not, however touch upon the
resultant malady of brain disorder ia
form OF insanity or imbecility. The
trouble with a man engaged IN per-
picking business affairs which over
tax his brain, bring aboutloss of appe-
tite and general prostration is that he
will not recognize that he Is q sick
man and that he must have rest and
1aedicaments, and meantime turn
over his business matters to some
well man to manage until he recover
ed his own health. Instead of persu-
ing this course he vexes the tired
brain until it gives way altogether.
It has always seemed a sad affair that
Horace Greedy could not have been
taken in hand earlier by some firm
ard judicious physician and made to
take the absolute rest required. A
horse may be driven to death, and a
man of ambition, energy and viii,
with fine nervous organization, will
kill himself through abnormal strain
If he can not be arrested In time by
friendly interposltion and made to
give nature chance to recuperate.
The loss OF weight is often good test

Anthracite.
Philadelphia Record

There is material for serious study
in the reports of coal consumption.
The output of the anthracite for
eight months of the present year was
769, 357 tons less than the production
for the corres spending period of last
year. It was over 81, 500, 900 tons less
than the amount sent to market for
the first eight months of 1888. There
is evidence of steady decline in
anthracite consumption, while the
volume of the bitumin GUS trade up to
this time has exceeded the output for
the same period of 1884 by AS, 437
tons. The decline in the aggregate
consumption of anthracite and b1-
luminous Goals is traced by many
the inactivity of the railroad and iron
interests, but it is probable that the
gigantic combination of coal carriers
and producers is responsible for most
Of the decentralization of the trade and
for the curtailment of the demand.

A SCENE IN A SHOE STORE.
n Corpuient Lady and Her Experience
Buying Footwear
Rochester Posi-. Express.


Yes" said Main street shoe store
clerk to an inquisitive ustomer a day
or two ago, I'VE see all sorts of socks
and stockings in our business, from
silk TO none at all. :"
"None at ala"
"Well, I don't mean by that that
many people come in here without
any stockings, but it sometimes hap
pens the naked feet are exposed TO our
gaze and women's fe ct at that"
How does that happen?"
III tell you of an instance. On
rainy day last week a very stout lady
came n here and wanted TO get a pair
OF shoes After looking at several
pairs, she selected one TO try on.
nnbuttoned her shoe for her and tried
to put on the one she had picked out.
but, although evidently the size she
wore, found it impossible TO pull it
on. The difficulty was easily seen.
Her stockings were damp, and told
her that it would be impossible 10 fit
her foot while she had on those stock
ings.
30, I thought of that she said.
and provided myself with an extra
pair, at the same time displaying a
small parcel she held in her hand,
Il told her she had better put them
on, and retired to the back part of the
store to give her a chance. Hearing
nothing from her, after few minutes
had elapsed [ yentured to glance
around, and saw that she was in an
awkward predicament. The fact was
she was too fat and too tightly laced
to put on her own stockings. Well,
sir, it was comical sight to see her /
Intellectual plunges IN her endeavors to
reach her feet, and the ludicrous side
long chances she cast around to see if
anyone vas watching her. [ couldn't
help standing and looking at her for
q minute or so, although my duty I'M
the case was clear enough. You see
[ was there to sell this lady pair Of
shoes, and if she bought them she
would nave TO have on dry stockings,
and it was plain that if she wore dry
stockings someone would be obliged
to put them on for her. So like a
hero [ marched up 10 where she was
sitting. What with her exertions and
the modification she felt, her face was

'''Yes, you can assist me. Pull off
those stockings and put on this pair,
and be quick about IT,, she ordered,
speaking quite savage like.
''WeQ, l got her stockings off, and
managed to get der feet III the dry
pair; then l left her again. When I
came back I got GA the shoe we had
tried before without any trouble.
Well, she took the shoes-they were
a sc pair-paid for them, and founced
out of the store as though we were TO
blame for the display she had made.

fectively, ''shoe clerks have queer

The OctO genar1ans' Wedding.

The Danielsonville CO.. Transcript
says the pleasant story recently told
III the newspapers of the marriage at
East Greenwich, r. l., Of two octo-
genarians who had been lovers in
early youth, but separated by family
difficulties, is fact, and that the sists
er of the bridegroom lives in Daniels
sonville. Then it tells how after the
quarrel the man went away to sea,
came back years after, married in tAe
West, was left widoWer, married
again, and again becamea widoWer,
learned that his early love was also
widow, and, sixty years after their
separated, came to see her. From
this point the transcript continues:
after reaching Rhode Island the
venerable lover found the lady had
gone West to visit relatives. Courag-
eously he retraced his journeyings,
and reached the far-away locality TO
which he had been directed. to find
that his bird had just flown home to
the east again. Fate again seemed
likely to have her cruel way, bent on
despoiling him of his hope, but this
dauntless lover OF uearIy Jour score
years snapped his fingers ia the face
of fate, and dared her 10 conquer IN
this second contest. Speedily he sent
a letter after his elusive lady love,
and what poetic Cupid in pursuit
could not accomplish Uncle Sans
prosalc post carriers.s our modern
winged Mercury, did. The lady duly
received the message which asked,
over the bridge of more than half a
bentury, for an interview. That she
too, had never forgotten is evident
from the fact that her answering mes
sage soon brought her lover to her
home IN Hast Greenwich. The sequel
to their real life romance received de-
lightfal illustration few weeks later,
when their long deferred union oc~
cured at the residence OF sister Of
the groom.

There are three kinds of bears PEI
culiar TO this section. They are the
range bear, the cinnamon bear. and
the black bear. The range bear close

other variety found IN Colorado. The
grlzzly proper is found in the Sierra
Nevadas.
The cinnamon bear is extremely
vicious; it is the worst of its kind to
attack and the hardest to kill. It de>

color of it's fur, which varies from
light to extremely dark shades.

Grants Present.

heard rather a COCA story the other
day of Marshal Jewell and General
Grant. The two were enjoying a
walk in Washington one evening
while Jewell was member OF Grants
cabinet, and far out on the outskirts
of the city t4ey came upon little girl
crying because she had lost her way.
They called a man and gave him IN
structions to find her home, when OF
a sudden up came the child's mother,
a comedy, rather poorly dressed young
woman, in the depths of agitation.
The men delivered over their infant
ward and walked away a few steps,
when the president, excusing himself
''iust for a minute" walked rapidly
back to the child, whose tears were
being wiped away. He didn't explain
to Postmaster General Jewell what it
was that had prompted his return, and
Mr.. Jewell did not explain either why
he found it convenient to go back to
the little ore for anotherminUte or SO.
Mr.. Jewell had opened his purse, not
suspecting General Grants motive.
General Grant did not open MS purse,
or rather the child did not get any
thing out Of it, for by some mishap
not a penny had he in his possession.
Instead OF coins Postmaster General
Jewell found the little one with an
apron full Of cigars. The General had
emptied his pockets into her lap. [
have never heard a story more char
acteristic of the headlong, earnest,
honest generosity of Grant.

PROBABLY the most unique monu-
ment that will be erected to General
Grant has been completed by the
Changers of Kansas. It consists of
an oblisk Of corn, rising to height of
forty-seven feet, The pedestal, seven
feet high, is covered with cornstalks,
arranged IN artistic fashion and hav~

Grant set III wreaths Of popcorn with
red peppers intertwined The shaft
is composed of ears of yellow corn,
and on its four faces, worked in red
ears, are the inscriptions: Peace"
Plenty" union" and Liberty"
On each corner of the pedestal is a
mammoth pumpkin. while giant corn
stalks, stacked like arms, stand
around the monument. The material
was gathered from the fields of tn,
