An Enrii.hman,, Tour Of The world.

Among the most singular Of charao-
tiers that / have ever met" said n young
gentleman who had Travelled consider
ably, twas a young Englishman whom l
ran across In San Diego. l was with a
friend in that town, who was going down
to E~nsenada, Lower California, In his
yacht. Peyton is the name of my friend,
and he owns a huge rancho on that PEN
insula- Well, we were going down to
the yacht when this man Of whom / speak
came up to Peyton and said; Il am an
Englishman, and 1 would like to ship
with you as a common ama Bis
language and his address were those Of q
gentleman and we both stared at him.
He continued, I am, as you can sec,
somewhat above the ranks Of mon who
follow a ~seafaring calling. But the truth
of my story is: l left London q few
months ago,d eterminedto go around the
world ON nothing. / have reached San
Diego, and l intend to travel a good
many years without taking a single five
cent piece, but by working my way
''My friend took him. At Ensenada
he left us. He refused money and
started to walk across the peninsula with
a small supply Of bread. We afterward
heard that he bad successfully accom-
plished that terrible tramp. You know
that country is the most horrible desert.
There is probably not a habitation In the
interior, and yet that man walked clear
across the peninsula when brave hearts
have quailed at the attempt when they
were mounted. San Francisco Post.

An English Marriage Law.

The English are noted for the obstinacy
with which they cling to old laws and
customs and for the caution with which,
often, they hesitate to alter laws and Gus.
toms which have become wholly unsuited
tothe age. A curious illustration of this
is seen in the fact that the law which for.
bids a man to marry his deceased wife's
sistersstnl remains In force.
This law, which declares that such a
marriage is null and void, and that the
children of such a marriage are not to be
recognized as legitimate by the law, was
passed fifty-three years age For more
than forty years there has been an almost
constant agitation to get rid of it; but 1t
has not succeeded because the house of
lords has steadily resisted the change.
Again and again the houseof commons,
by varying ~majorities, has passed q bill
repeating the law. When sent to the
lords, these bills have been opposed by
the bishops, and mainly by their influ-
ence, have been as often rejected. Once
the bill was passed to a second reading by
the lords, but on the next stage of con-
sideration 1t was thrown out.
Recently tho house of once
more voted In favor of the change. The
majority in favor Of the bill was nearly
100, and was made up of members of every
party. But no one expects that the house
Of lords will pass the bil.-Youth's Com
