OLD LONDON BRIDGE.
when it Was Built aad who tn. Architect
Was.


st. Louis Post-Dispatch.l
The first stone bridge across the Thames
at London was commenced in 1176. The
architect was Peter, of Colecburch, who
died in 1905, one year before the structure
was competed. The stone platform was 926
feet long and 40 feet wide. The coping
stones so feet above the level of the water at
ebb tide, and the bridge was formed by 10
pointed arches, with massive piers
from % to "a feet in soliditY, having
q. drawbridge on each side Of the
river to protect the approaches. The
chapel inscribed to st. Thomas a Beckett
consisted of two stories, and was familiarity
known as st. Thomas Of the bridge. It stood
on the tenth or great pier, that is, as nearly
as possible in the center Of the bridge, the
lower portion being the crypt, paved with
black and white marble. In this crypt the
architect, Peter Of Coleehurch, desired that
his bones might rest. and there, it may be
presumed, they peacefully remained for
centuries. But in 1881 the premises came
into the occupation of aMr. Baldwin, to be
used by him as dwelling and warehouse.
While alterations were being effected under
the staircase of the crypt, the remains Of n
human body were discovered and removed,
but no inscription was found to afford q
clue as to whose body il was, nor were any
records of the interment forthcoming.

The PRICE OF CHAMPAGNES.


What the Epernay Grapes OOst-The San.
cerre Crop.
The following extract from French pa
per, relative to the price of some cham
pagne grapes of this years harvest, may
prove interesting in these times of talk
about a champagne trust: People are often
sstonished when thev hear of the price of a
bottle of champagne of some high-class
brand. But it is known that in the Epernay
district basketful OF Cramant grapes was
sold at the rate of 81 francs kilogramme
(tWo pounds). This has put up the price of
cask containing 200 litres (about 200
quarts) to ], 400 francs, or $3.50. 1t has been
calculated that this year a fine bunch of
grapes, with big grapes. is worth to its pro-
prietor 1 centime (one-ffth of 1 cent? for
each grape"
So much for the true, genuine grape har-
vested in the old province of Champagne,
or rather in a small portion of it. around
Epernay and Ay. But all champagne
wine, which is drunk by hundreds of mill
ions of bottles throughout the world, could
not be produced in this French province.
For instance, one reads in a review OF a
wine crop, published this year in the Jour
nal Des De6dtS of the 9Th instant, in regard
to the crop of white grapes in the district of
Sancerre, some 250 miles distant from
Champagne, that "a large portion of the
crop has been sold, before harvesting, to the
makers of champagne, at the rate of 80
francs (S10) the hectolitre, or 100 litres, Just
as it comes out from the press machine"
therefore containing great deal of froth.
How different this price is from that of the
Cramant or the genuine grapeO of Champagne.
Still those white wines from Sancerre and
other districts give a good champagne after
having passed through the making process.
1t must be known that it is due to that
process that champagne sparkles so
strongly, much more actively, indeed. than
Champagne wine, previous to its being
treated and improved, is quiet, delicious,
still wine, with an admirable light rose
tinted color-the wine for home, the twin
brother of the champagne Of restaurants and
official banquets

The FORMATION OF GUERRILLAS.
Why QuantreIrs Gang Was Organized and
Equipped.

Florida Tfmes-U nion.J
In 1861, just after Price had captured
Lexington, NO., seven of his men bound
themselves by an oath to stand by each
other and kill all those at whose hands they
had suffered. They were Quantrell, Haller,
the Little brothers, Hampton, Kelley and
Busham. Many others soon Joined them.
All complained of terrible outrages on
themselves or members of their families,
and it is more than probable the charges
were true, for that was an evil time. Men
were whipped, robbed, murdered; women
were insulted, outraged, driven from their
homes. Each army contained Its quota Of
bad men, and at the beginning Of the war
discipline was shamefully slack. Then, as
always happens in such cases, men with no
feeling on either side of the great contro-
versy robbed Unionists and charged it to
the Seeessionists, and vice versa, and in
such heated times each party believes the
worst of the other.
The region in which the James and
Youngers grew up has had a singular ex-
perience in lawlessness. From 1919 to 1854
the western line of Missouri, from the site of
the present Kansas City south, was the border
between the whites and the semi-civilized
Delawares, Shawnees and vandottes-that
is 70 say, Ine line Wnere criminals were SAFE.
The white population of Jackson, Clay and
adjacent counties had increased to q few
hundreds when the Mormons came in 1888;
a year later the Mormon war" began and
raged at intervals tor four years till the
Bformons were expelled. Eleven years later
the emigrants to California made Indepen-
dence their gathering point and life be-
came generally reckless. Soon followed the
Kansas troubles, from 1854 TO 1857. Hatred
burned in the hearts of the people on both
sides of the line; hundreds of "Jayhawkers,"
'Red Legs" and Border Rufians'' were
longing Tor chance to get revenge. Out
of this sanguinary chaos of blood and fire
the Quautrell gang was evolved.

Queer COntrivauce to Prevent UnweIcome
Visitors From Entering.
Chicago HeraId.l
In front of a second-story window Of a
store and fiat building over one of the
Westside thoroughfares is curious contri-
vance which has long excited the curiosity
of daily passers-by. It is slab-like affair
which stands out from the building on
brackets, and its use or utility is not ap-
parent to the most careful observer. Peo-
pie who see it have wondered what 1t is, but
in vain. One day. not long ago, young
man whose curiosity regarding the mysteri-
Gus contrivance had been piqued regularly
twice day, resolved to find out what the
thing was. Accordingly he left his car one
morning at the street above the building
and walked slowly down the street gazing
at the object as he approached it. In front
of house near by stood a good-natured
looking old fellow, and the young man
stopped and asked him if he could explain
the object of the arrangement in question.
"Yes, sir, grinned the man, "some peo-
pie call it 'busybody, but think it's a
good idea. You see there is a mirror back
of that slab, and it is set so that person in
the window can look into it and see the
face of anyone who may be ringing the
door-bell below. 1t saves many trip up
and down stairs, for a woman can see if
the caller is a peddler or some one she
doesn't care to see. If it is, she lets them
ring until they get tired. Good idea, eh?''

flicts of the courtroom as for the physical
conflicts of the battlefield. She was de-
signed for gentler and better things. 1t is
not the saints of the world who in the main
employ lawyers. The profession has to deal
with all that is mean and malicious,
knavish and criminal, coarse and nasty, re-
pulsive and obscene in human life. It
would surely be revolving to all female
sense of innocence and modesty, and shock
ing to the faith that man bears toward
womanhood, on which hang all the better
affections and humRnities of life, were
women permitted to mix professionally in
all the nastiness of the depraved which
finds its way into courts of law. Take a
glimpse at the catalogues of crime that are
felonious under the statutes with which the
profession has to deal, and which go toward
filling up judicial reports, and it will be
readily seen that no modest woman could
read them without pain and self abasement,
nor so overcome the instincts of her nature
as to publicly try them. hope we hold in
too high an estimation the sex as to voiun-
tarily commit it to such studies and such
occupations. We must not depend on such
assistance, nor get our defenders from their
ranks. T. j. FITZGERALD.

Now he beheld himself lying at Kasana' s
5eet. his head fondly laid on her lap while
he gazed up into her lovely face. Then it
was Joshua who stood before him in splen-
did armor as he had Just now seen him, only
more gorgeous, and in ruddy freight, in
stead of the dim light in the tent Then
again, all the finest oxen and rams of his
herds passed in front OF him, and mingling
with all these sentences Of the message he
had learned passed through his mind-nay,
he fsncied that they were being shouted in
his ears; but before he could be quite sure of
their meaning, some new and dazzling vision
or 8 loud, rushing sound filled his minds eve
and ear.
And on he went, tottering like one drunk,
with the sweat standing on his brow and a
parched mouth. Now and then he mechani-
cally lifted his hand to wipe the dust from
his burning eyes, but he cared little that
they failed to show him clearly what was
passing around him, for nothing could be
more delightful than what he beheld when
he looked within. Every now and then, to
be sure, he was conscious of acute suffering
and he felt inclined to fling himself on the
ground in sheer exhaustion, but then again
a strange sense of relief kept him up. At
last the delirium was too much for him; his
head seemed growing and swelling till it
was as large as the colossus he had seen
Yesterday IN front of a temple, then it rose
to the height of the palm trees by the road
side, and at last it reached the mist over the
armament, and higher and higher yet. Then
this head, which was still his head. was as
wide as the horizon, and he pressed his
hands to his temple and held his brow, for
his neck and shoulders were too weak TO
bear the burden of so huge a head. and
possessed with this madness, he shrieked
aloud, his knees gave way and he sank
senseless in the dust.

AVOIDING HER OWN LIGHT.
A British Ship Tries to Steer Awny From
Her Own Lantern.

~ British ship Tries TO steer AWny FROM
Her Own Lantern.
New York world.S
The question of the carrying of lights,
and changes necessary for the benefit Of
navigation and the avoidance of collisions,
brings to mind an incident that happened
some years ago, when a British frigate,
homeward bound, and an American man-of-
war were lying at anchor in the same port.
The Captain and officers of the English vessel
were invited to dine on board the American
ship. The dinner was long, jovial affair,
and the toasts were frequent. Finally,
about 10 o'clock, the visitors were bundled
into their boats to return to their vessel,
which was to get under way as soon as all
were on board and the boats hoisted.
After a short interval the vessel was seen
to be moving, and from the American could
be heard q number of orders given TO the
helmsman, first porting the helm and then
heaving it hard over the other way, repeat
ing this operation several times. As the
course was fairly straight one, the reason
for this vast amount of maneuvering was
not at all apparent, and the mystery re-
mained unsoIved for quite while.
Several months later one of the officers
returned to the station aboard another
British man-of-war, and he stated that
owing to too much Americanism or too
many good-byes, they had neglected to give
the order to haul down the vessels stay
1ight-as the light is called which all ves-
sells hoist forward when at anehor-snd
being firmly convinced that it was the light
aboard of some other ship, they were shift
ing their vessels course in vain endeavors
to avoid it, and bring it to bear in some
orhar diractinn than rioht ahead
not until they had taken up the greater
portion of the anchorage, and had come
within an ace of running down various
craft that someone cooler-headed than the
rest discovered the offending lantern and
had il hauled down.

Let me linger where the gramma grass is grow
ing
When the sun its scarlet streamers filings on
high;
Let me roam where countless prairie-fowers
are blowing
And the evening clouds are blushing in the
sky!
In the winter when alone and in the stirrup,
Through the drifting snowflakes pushing on
in haste,
The thought Of someone often makes me cheer
up
AS her tender kisses on my lips 1 taste
And in summer when the verdant boughs are
nOdding
In the breezes gently sighing o er the plain,
Along the laughing landscape slowly plodding.
Her glances greet me lovingly again.
And now the moments seem to me but Idle
When someone is not nesting by my side,
toss upon my broncho's neck the bridle
And like the wind across the pampas ride.
The deepest wound my bosom has to carry
Is in the inmost recess of my heart;
It bleeds afresh when nightfail bids me tarry
And wonder how we ever live apart.
Let me HE from where the gramma grass is
growing
Toward the sunsets golden glory in the sky;
Let me hasten where the buds are eyer blowing
And the love-light flashes in my dear ones

A PLUG HE COULDN'T CHEW.

How n Rallroader Was Taught Not TO B0r-
row 0fher Peoples Tobacco.
Chicago Heraldl
John Aspel, of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas Railroad, is known among his friends
of the rail as an inveterate beggar Of to-
bacco. Even when he has good plug of
his own in his pocket the habit had so grown
upon him that be will ask for tobacco any
way. Last week some of the boys put up q
job on him. They sent out and got square
of tough sole leather. covering both sides Of
it with. layer Of tobacco, and piercing the
whole with the regulation tin tag. The pre-
pared 'plug" was given to one of the con-
spirators, and he filed it away in his pocket.
During the day Aspel dropped in and
asked for a chew.
The fixed plug was handed to him. He
bit away at it Tor awhile, and then he
pulled out his pocketknife and tried to cut
it. He saw the deception intended and
tried to say nothing, but his friends gave
him the laugh. It is q pretty sure thing
that he will never again beg chew Of 10
baccO.
