Washingion's birthday celebration in a
Western city took for his text Washing
toms Loveless Life" He said that the
father of his country went through life
without the bond Of love, although he was
of an affectionate disposition. He always
wrote to his mother as "Honored Madam"
and his youthful love affairs were not
a source of pleasure to him, as the objects
of his affection generally bestowed their
young hearts elsewhere than in his keeping.
When he finally married Martha Curtis,
his love for her was of calm, digni6ed
sort. He is said never to have been known
TO kiss child, but his pent-up affections
were lavished upon his horses and dogs.

Cancellation of Postage STAMPS.

To look at the stamps, one would
scarcely imagine the trouble it required to
arrive at an absolutely safe combination
that will resist water, alkalies and acids.
1t was once serious question. At firstis
was proposed to use certain kinds of
paper, but this proved not feasible, be-
cause skillful operator could wash off
the ink witho2t injuring the paper Then
experiments we're concentrated on the
printing, and water colors were proposed,
which would wash off with the applica-
ton Of water. But it was found that tho
heat of summer had the same effect.
Alkalies and fugitive colors were also
tried, but they were proved valueless.
Still another method was to have the ink
fixed in the paper, but acids easily took
out the color. Finally simple plan was
arrived at This was to make the ink Of
materials which chiefly compose ordinary
writing ink, and, therefore, what would
destroy the marking on the stamp would
destroy the stamp, which would be Of the
same quality and character Postofice

Rights of the Crown.

Many old laws in the English statutes,
although held in allegiance, are still of
legal form, and among them is the right
Of the crown to all gold and silver mines
within the British isles. Recently some
fairly valuable gold quartz mines were
discovered on the estate of Pritchard Nor
gan in North Wales, and the question
arises whether the owner of the land can
work, the minerals to his own benefit.
There can be no doubt that the right of
property in gold and silver mines wher-
ever they be within the realms is in the
crown, unless the crown has released its
right, not by granting mines-that is not
enough-but by granting mines royal.
The origin Of the right is said to be that
the king has the gold and silver for max
ing the coinage, and so far is the preroga-
tive from being obsolete that it has been
regulated by two acts of parliament in the
reign Of William and Mary and one in
1915, and as recent as 1877 1t was recog-
nized by Lord Blackburn as in full force
in an appeal from the colony of Victoria

OMAHA, Neb., March 19.-Judge
Dundy, of the United States district
court, has rendered his decision in the
injunction suit brought by the BurliDg-
ton road against the Union Pacific COM
pany and engineers in their employ to
prevent them from refusing to receive or
handle Burlington freight. The court
holds:
The engineers on the Union Pacific
have the right to quit work when they
please, but they have not the right to
enter into a conspiracy, and by concerted
action suddenly leave the Union Pacific
road without engineers, when the pur-
pose of that conspiracy is to prevent the
Union Pacific road from exchanging
freight with the Burlington.

From Barbados to Trinidad.

Where summer is most constant-in
these equatorial regions where no cold
comes-rheumatisms are prevalent, be-
cause of the high humidity. Last winter
party OF tourists sat upon a steamers
deck, making the passage between Barba-
dos and Trinidad, a days run. A tropical
moon shone respondent, soft breezes
from sparkling sea famed the deck lazily,
and beds were long unsought. In the
morning four of the six men were suffer-
ing from lumbago, and the writer, who
should have known better than to expose
himself in SO foolish way, was deco
