No. IS berkeley SQUARE.

The house Is not without traditional
interest, for It was In the last century
the scene of a romantic elopement II
was her the residence Of Mr.. Child, the
opulent banker Of Temple Bar, who had
an only daughter, the heiress of his
enormous wealth. The Earl of West
morelnnd paid attentions to the young
lady, but his suit was not encouraged by
her father, who wished his daughter to
marry n younger son, and form a new
family, which should perpetuate the
name of Child. Nothing daunted, Lord
Westmoreland determined to make n
clandestine marriage at Gretna Green.
In order TO make good tho heroine's es-
cape II was necessary to evade the vigil
ance Of her duenna- who slept In the
room through which that Of the heiress
was approached. So the old lady's posset
was drugged, and she slept the sleep of
the just while her young charge slipped
out into Berkeley square, where Lord
Wcstmoreland was waiting with his
travelling carriage. But, unluckily, in
their cagerness to DO off, the fugitives
left the front door ajar, and the watch
man coming round soon afterward
alarmed the house.
Tho flight WINS discovered, and Mr..
Child, ordering out his carriage, set forth
In pursuit. All night long and all c
day the angry father raced his Grant
daughter, and, MS they neared tho border,
he began to gain on the fugitives. Then
Lord Westmoreland drew his pistol and
shot Mr.. Child's leader dead. The victory
was won, the chase WINS over, md the
young couple were duly married by the
blacksmith. Meanwhile Mr.. Child re-
turned In high dudgeon to London, and
made n will leaving all his wealth, over
his daughters head-not 30 her sons, for
so he would have enriched the earldom
Of INSTRUMENTATION to her eldest
daughter. Thus the principal interest
in the great banking house passed to
Lady Sarah Sophia Child Fame, who
married the Earl of Jersey and was the
grandmother Of tho present peer. She
was for fifty years one of the best known
figures In the society of London, and is
graphically described by Lord Beacons-
field In "Endymion," under tho name of
Zenobia- Lord Jersey sold tho house to
Lord Rosebery.-Murray's Magazine.

Tho most violent hurricanes originate
in the tropical ATTITUDES; in the Atlantic
ocean, to the north or cast Of the West
Indian Islands; and in the Pacific, in the
China seas, and the ncighborhood of tile
Philippine Islands, As the West Indian
cyclones follow the course Of the gulf
stream, so the typlIoons Of the Pacific
follow the urs of the great oceanic
current which passes round the East
Indian archipelago, the shores of China
and tbs japanese Islands. A more con-
tinuously rough and stormy part of the
ocean docs not, perhaps, exist than that
in the nuighborhood OF the Shetland

German and Atlantic oceans meet, and

Teaching Their Young.

There have been two scientific facts
discovered through the mediumship of
the Geological garden, about which the
public have been kept in ignorance.
Early one morning in Thompson's timo
Herr Schmidt went out to SEQ the old sea
lion and her baby. He was astonished
to sec the mother with the young down
on the edge of the bridge, vomiting some
sort OF oil all over it. Thinking some
thing wrong, he at once called Thomp-
son, who, seeing the operation of tho
mother, said, That's funny" and great
was the astonishmcnt of both when the
mother nosed tho young one into the
water. He floundered about and got
back on to h bridge. She nosed him
In again and kept on repeating the dose
for five or six times, then took the Young
one and carried him into tho house.
1--WE learned something good therefrom
not known to scientists, and that is that
the mother seal oils her young with oil
from her stomach before she teaches
them to swim. That's something new In
natural history. Tho other discovery
was that young grizzlies weigh Mt birth
only about a pound or n pound and q
quarter, and the way they taught their
cub to swim was funny. Tho father
would push the cub into tho water
where it would paw and founder, ther
both mother and father would go to tn,
edge of the water tank, and reaching
out their paws, rake tho cub up, invaria
bly, dropping it half n dozen times be
fore they landed it."-Cincinnati En-
uuirer.

A beautiful young wife of the kings
had in some innocent way displeased
him. The order was given to smell
her out, and the witch doctors did
their horrible work. Executioners
were told off, and they were sent out
to the young wife to tell her of her
sentence. She dressed herself in her
best ornaments, and determined to APP
pear before the king TO say "Good-by."
She had been the rulers playmate and
favorite sweetheart as a child, and she
ventured to send q message to him
asking permission to say "Good-by" to
him. The king refused the request.
Calmly preparing for death, the young
woman disregarded the denial, and
walked to where his majesty" was
sitting, drinking champagne. She
said to him: king, / have como to
say. 'good-by;' tell mo why you are
killing me-"
The king vouchsafed no answer, and
turned his face away. Tho poor wo-
man proceeded to bid adieu to the
other wives and girls of the monarch.
They stood in q row, and as she walked
down in front of them she said: 81
am tho first, but there will be moro of
you to como after me-" Without an
other word she quietly followed her
executioners. They led her about three
miles from the kraal, across the lillian
river, and there hanged her on q low
thorn tree. The REIN by which she
was suspended being too long, her feet
nearly touched the ground, and stran-
gulation was completed by beating the
reim with sticks, the person of royalty
being sacred TO the common touch

Too Rich for Diamonds.

He was very fond of diamonds. Ev-
erybody who knew him knew his weak
ness for those jewo although every
body knew that he w poor. They used
to laugh at him kindly, because when he
hadn't a quarter to buy n cheap meal
he'd show q Kohinoor in his shirt front.
Ono day no made q lucky strike and
found himself rich. He went of to Eu-
rope, and in the meantime he kept gain
ing riches. He camo back most quietly
dressed, without a sign of jewelry Of any
kind. An old friend met him and looked
at him.

Dan. You lack something. Where are

Mr.. Bright's speeches

Above twenty years ago I was talk
ing with Mr.. Bright in the smoking
room of the house of commons. he
was going to speak later on In the
evening, and he had a large roll OF
notes which he was looking through.

to address the house on an important
issue without thoroughly getting the
subject into his head, and knowing
how he intends to treat it" "You

piled, 81 do, otherwise I might say

went on to explain that his greatest
difficulty in mastering the art Of which
he had become such a master had been
to acquire the habit of speaking slow

tween words and sentences he went
on to say, "but pronounce distinctly

Moro trouble with md lack of condi-

really wonderful. It will frequently
repeat whole sentences in the exact

diseases, believing that no condition of human

Salem to The Sea.

Every property holder, business
man. and resident Of Salem, every
farmer along the line OF the proposed
road, and every person who has any
sort of interest in the vast and rich
territory tributary thereto, should
lend his assistance toward getting on
foot the proposition Of building a
railroad from Salem to Astoria. The
difference in the price Of wheat to the
farmers of the central counties of the
willamette valley alone would in five
years pay for building and equipping
this road. The matter should not be
delayed. After it is built those in
terested in the matter will wonder
that it was not done long ago, like
the people now wonder that the Will
lamette river at Salem remained un-
bridged so long. II every one who
has an interest in the project will
lend his assistance Salem will be con-
nected with the sea at Astoria within

Tough on the California Legislator.

There have been legislatures in this
state which were fatal to the pros
poets of its majority members. To
speak of a man as a member Of such
legislature was to close up all ave-
nues to employment. 1t does not do
a man any good to come from San
Quentin, but it is not in all cases ab-
solutely fatal. There is disposition
in certain quarters to give an ex-con-
vict chance to show that he has re-
formed. But the general opinion IS
that, in point OF morals, q man who
puts himself into the hands Of a po-
litical boss to filch from the state
through legislative enactment has
passed the point Of moral awakening.

How Men Die.

II we know all the methods of ap-
proach adopted by an enemy we are
the better enabled to ward off the
danger and pospone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In
many instances the inherent strength
of the body suffices to enable it to op-
pose the tendency toward death.
Many however have lost these forces
to such an extent that there is little
or no help. In other cases little
aid to the weakened Lungs will make
all the difference between sudden
death and many years Of useful life.
Upon the first symptoms OF a Cough,
Cold or any trouble OF the Throat or
Lungs, give that old and wellknown
remedy-Boschee's German Syrup. a
careful trial. It will prove what
thousands say Of it to be, the "bene-
