It is true.' answered the other, but none know of it. And they passed on quietly as they had come. Thereupon up rose the beggared farmer and with basin and cup set about collecting the dew, and in very short times performed with it the most wonderful cures, finally curing the daugh- ter of neighboring Emperor who had been blind from her birth and whom her grateful father gave to him at once in marriage, since directly she set eyes on him she loved him. And one day riding by her side on fine horse through 8 country where his woods and castles and rivers might have been seen every where a man begged of him, and can you be- lieye2 it was the farmer who only few years before had won his farms and cattle. 'Hsw is it, cried the beggar, that who was once rich am now penniless, while you, who lost all to me, are dressed so magnifcently and in such noble company And the man who had married the Emperors daughter told him his story, and, while he relieved his necessities, showed himshow that night on London bridge had laid the foundation of his fortunes. So the other, thinking the place might do as much fer him, set out to go there; and walk ing on and on reached there, as the first had done, by nightfall. But, patient as he might be, he could hear nothing that would help his miserable condition, and, quite weary he lay down to sleep. And he was awakened by hear ing two men talking beside him; and one said to the ether, The night is fine, the wind gems tie, the stars clear. On such a night 'Stsyl' interrupted the other, there is man here prstendins to sleep and listening; let us kill hinn!' And, though he struggled hard for his life, they seized him without pity and threw him into the water and he was drowned
 You see, then, that the man who staked all on the grace of the good God, though he seemed to lose, yet came to great riches and honor, while the other met his death from the very bridge whose beauty he was SC inpious as to prefer. :" The waiter knew nothing of the fu- ture or fate of the three on the high road who had been the means of settling the dispute by adjadging the superior beauty te Lendon bridge. Sometimes when crossing and seeing these poor creatures huddled in the bay I have fanci@a it must be they or their descand- ants waiting for the whisper at midnight that is to be the means of ending all their woes.

FERDINAND DE LRssEPs,

The Marvellous Man Who is Flying
 About the World at Eighty.two.
 M. de Lssseps is about to visit the Isthmus
 again. The astonishing activity of this man
 of eighty-two is 8 never ending theme for
 those who observe the career of the ffgrand
 Frenchman," as Gambetta called him. What
 ever we Americans may think of the Panama
 canal we must admit that the promoter of the scheme is one of the most remarkable men of the age and one of the most sympa- thetic. With Lamartine and Victor Hugo he is the most universally popular Frenchman of this century.
 M. de Lesseps gets his wonderful activity from the paternal side. his father having been
 one of those sprightly Marseillais who never
 keep still 8 long while at 8 time. His mother was a Catalonian and on her side he inherits his deliberative qualities. Most per- sons who have general idea of M. de Lesseps'
 career think he is an engineer, and ignore that he began life as diplomatist. To be sure he quilted the diplomatic service in 1849, so the present generation may be ex- cused for not remem 5ering, that before dig ging canals he was promoter of peace on land. M de Lesseps' father was also a di- plomatist, and at the beginning of the cen tury visited America for the purpose of ne- gotiating a commercial treaty between France and our country.
 To see this distinguished looking and alert gentlemen on the boulevard, or galloping along on horseback, accompanied by seven or eight of his children, no one would ever | suppose that he was in his 83d year, and that he had had eleven children by his sec | ond wife, whom he married on the day the l Suez canal was inaueurated. A few weeks ago some of the numerous enemies of | the Panama scheme started the re- port of NJ. de Lesseps' death. To
 friend who called at the house to learn the truth of this rumor the celebrated French
 man replied "Some good souls have said that I was dead you see I am still alive. Others have pretended that my leg is broken. l If those who started this story will come and see me will prove to them by we'll known
 movement that my leg is in very good con- | dition."
 M. de Lesseps lives in the Avenue Mon- | taigne in a spacious hotel that he bought I three years ago from the Princess de Beau- veau. On the day of his marriage, in 1869, l his father-in-law gave him O,0O0 francs to | invest, not knowing himself where best to l place them for his daughters benefit. At that moment the shares were worth 250
 francs, and faith in the future of the canal
 was not very strong. M. de Lesseps put the 100, GOO in Suez stock, and in 1885 they had produced ], ,500, 900 francs. With this money he bought the hotel for Mime. de Lesseps.- The Epoch.

BOTTLES MADE OF PAPER.
They Are Said to be Far. Superior to
 the Glass Article.

They Are Said to be Far. superior 70 the Glass Article.
 [Chambers Journal.l
 An attempt now being made on an extend- ed scale to introduce bottles made of paper into this cofnt1y merits some passing notice. The paper bottle industry, which has achieved considerable success in Chicago, and is grad ually extending throughout the United States, has not yet obtained any develop ment on this side of the Atlantic Foremost among the advantages accruing from this new adaptation of paper is the fact that the bottles are unbreakable, while the cost at which they can be placed on the market is considerably lower than that of an article of the game size in glass, stoneware or tn. A great saving in weight is moreover effected, 8 desideratum of no small moment where cost of carriage of large numbers has to be taken into consideration, while the cost of packing is reduced to minimum, for breaking in transit, which is a constant source of loss with glass bottles, is obviously impossible. Special machinery is employed in the manu- facture of paper bottles. A long strip of paper of requisite thickness having been formed into tube by bending around cir- cular 'smandrel" is covered externally with an outer glazed sheet, bearing any printed labels to be employed; the tube is then cut into short lengths, to the ends of which are added tops, bottoms and necks of paper-or of wood if special strength is required-noth- ing further being necessary beyond pouring in and lining the inside with a composition which, on setting, will effectually resist the action of acids, spirits, inks, dyes, etc. The utilization of paper is constantly receiving new adaptations, bare enumeration of which would constitute formidable list, while enough has been said to demonstrate that the largest development of this material in the bottle making industry bids fair to hold not an unimportant part in the varied uses now obtained from paper.

both, in the discretion of the court. It also provides that any person delivering property for transportation to a railroad who shall knowingly or wilfally by false billing, false classification, false weighing or false reports of weight or by any other device or means, whether with or without the consent or con- nivance of the carrier, obtain transportation for property at less than regular rates shall be deemed guilty of fraud, which the bill de- clares to be misdemeanor, and for each of- fenss shall be subject to fine of not more than S, GOO or imprisonment not exceeding two years or both in the discretion of the court.
 The title of the trustees of the Old Swedes' church in Wilmington, Delaware, is being investigated by Philadelphia people, who claim that it is invalid, and that the property really belongs to the Swedish Lu- therans. The Old Swedes' church has one of the most interesting histories of any church in America. The history of the parish dates from 1888, when the original Swedish settlers landed here, and Peter Minnit built fort on the north side of Minquas creek (at place called by the Indians Hopookohasking), naming it Christina, after the reigning Queen of Sweden. With Minnit came Rev. Reorus Torkillusas, pastor of the colony. For several years religious services were held in the fort. In 1867 timber church was built, and finally the present structure was erected, in 1898, and censecrated on Sunday, July 4, 1699.- This church was built of stone 60 feet long, 30 feet broad, with walls which were three feet thick. It is quaint and cu- rious structure, overgrown with ivy, and stands as originally erected, with the simple additions and Improvements to supply the needs of to-day. The stones for it's construc- tion were broken by the congregation, and hauled mostly on sleds during the winter. The boards were all sawed by hand on saw pit, and the nails all forged by blacksmith.

A STRANGE BILL.

Legislatures can do queer things when dealing with s'the labor, question" One of the strangest performances in this line that have lately appeared is the passage by the New York assembly of the Yates prison bill, which is characterized as practically bill for maintaining convicts in the State prisons in idleness at the expense of the public, and adding something like $400, ,0o0 to the State taxes.
 This bill attempts to do away with the al- legged conflict between convict and free labor It provides for the employment of the con- victs, "when practicable" in manufacturing or repairing such articles as may be needed for the inmates of the prisons in which they are confined, or for the inmates of other penal and reformatory institutions or asy- lums of the State, or in building, repairing or enlarging the prisons, reformatories, peaal institutions or asylums, or in "draining, re- claiming or cultiEating the swamp lands or other lands of the State; or in such other laborious work may be beneficial to the State or it's institutions, or in making cloth ing and equipments for the militia of the State; or such other work as may be desig- mated" by the officers in charge of the pris- ons. This latter clause is modified by the provision that the labor of the prisoners and its product must be exclusively beneficial to the public;'' that their services must not be contracted to anyone, nor any article manu- factured by them sold, exchanged or given away to any private person whatever, and that no motive power or machinery of any description must be placed in the prisons s'for the purpose of increasing the revenue or products thereof"
 It is figured out that if this bill becomes g law the net cost to the people under it will be $1 ,07o, 900, in place of $516, 900, the pres ent expense. And as all the prison labor in the United States amounts to but 5S-106 of per cent. of the mechanical labor of the country, the cause of labor will of course be greatly helped by it. A little common sense seems to be as badly needed as anything in the New York assembly,

Irish Mutton the Hest.

The sweetest. tenderest and most palatable mutton in the world is that raised in Ireland. The Irish sheep grow larger than ours, they feed on better pastures, and their meat is wholly free from that strong, ''sheepy" taste which makes ours so disagreeable to many palates. No American who has eaten the mutton served in the Irish hotels will take any other kind of meat while he stays there. The English mutton, though better than ours, is far inferior to the Irish. American mutton is sold in the English, Irish and Scotch mar ksts, but it brings from three to four pence less pound than the native products, and no one who can afford the latter will take the former-Boston Globe

It surely will have no weight with the public unless he con vinces them beyond a cavil or doubt of the truthfulness of his statement. The goods he offers may be seasonable, but that don't make them cheap or desir- able. They may be unseason- able or unserviceable, or if pos sessing those virtues they may be unpopular, because of color, pattern, or make. To be en- tirely desirable means that they must possess the requirement of fashion or appropriateness, be of reliable manufacture, season able and low priced.
