Edgar Poe's Raven.

Edgar A. Poe once lived in Il small
house at New York. situated in Eighty
fourth street, near the present boule-
ward. The house has remained stand
ing alone for some time past, but quite
recently it was torn down to make
room for other buildings that are to be
erected on the same adjacent land, or
rock, we should say, more properly.
Although Poe only boarded in this
house a part of two seasons, there was
especial interest belonging to it, for
the reason that it was there he wrote
"The Raven" This fact was known
by hearsay to many of his admirers,
but when it was disputed by one of
the Sunday papers, they found it diff
cult to establish the fact. One of
them, however, has hunted up Mrs.
OBeirne, a sister of Commissioner
Thomas Brennan. Her family lived
in that cottage, and accepted Poe and
his wife as bOarders in the summers of
1913 and 1914. She was then a child
six or seven years of age, but she dis
tinctly remembers them both, as Mrs.
Poe was fond of her and often had the
child in her room. Her mother often
told her how Poe read the poem to the
family, in manuscript, and how she
always kept the room just as it was at
that time, down to the period when
the family left the house. Speaking
of the room, Mrs. O'Beirne says: al
remember very well the old plaster
bust above the door," where there was
little shelf upon which it stood, that
"pallid bust of Pallas, just above my
chamber door" Several persons
came to interview mother" she SAYS,
..about The Raven. and in that way l
have always associated the poem with
that room, and continued it in my
memory" The poem was first pub
lished in COuOn's Whig ReUieso for Feb
ruary. 1915, and probably elaborated
the summer before, which was the Sec
ond season that Poe spent at the Bren-
nan cottage. As we have said, his ad-
mirers believed that the poem was
written there, and when the house
was taken to pieces lately, many relics
were purchased by them, such as the
.chamber door," the mantel-piece OF
Poe's raven, pieces of holdings, and
the window easements, within which
''there stepped stately raven of the
sanity days of yore." The mantel has
gone to adorn the fireplace of hand
some library in Brooklyn, as it was
quaint and old-fashioned, with carved
fruit aud vines and leaves. Cor.

Episcopal Incomes.

The Bishop of New York has the
largest personal revenue in this coun-
try. 1t is $4,000 year. The Bishop
of Maine has the smallest. 1t is $1,000
a year. The Bishops of California,
Chicago, Long Island and Massa-
chusetts have each $1,000 year. 9th
ers have incomes running from $1,000
down, while eight of the American
prelates are content with $4,000 year
each, and are not perfectly sure OF
getting it in time to meet their butch
er's books and coal bills. In England,
where the State takes the place of the
voluntary contribution in support OF
the church, the head of the prelacy has
an income of $75,000 a year. Two OF
the bishops have each $4,000. Others
run from $4,000 down, the average
revenue of the episcopate below the
greatest named being between $50
600 and $4,000 a Chicago 1fi-

HE RODE A WHITE PONY.
One of Buffalo Bii's Indians Who Wa
Equal to an Emergency.

In connection with the Buffalo Bill
''Wild West" combination which vis-
tied Baltimore few weeks ago, says
the Herald of that city. an Interesting
story is told in which weIl-knuwn
society lady, her too imprcssionaiIle
son, and several Indian chiefs figure
prominently.
The lady in question is handsome
and yivacious. and has a head crowned
with Il wealth of bandamt-hnrl hair.
With her son as an escort she went to
Orinle park to witness the wonders of
life in the far west as portrayed hy
Hon. William +. Cody. his cuw-boys,
Indians, aud bucking ponies. The
crowd was very dense. and when the
performance had concluded mother
and son arose to go. The youths hat
was suddenly lifted from his head by a
puff of wind, and while he made a
clever jump for it the mother was
pushed on with the crowd. But it's an
ill wind that blows nobody good, and
the gentle breeze which lifted the
derby from well-shaped Uranium and
caused a temporary separation be-
tween the lady and her son was the
cause of a closer acquaintance between
stayed to the great scouts" tent, to
the occupant of which he introduced
himself. and in return Buffalo Bill
made the Northern Baltimorean ac-
quainted with the Indian chiefs for
whose services he pays a liberal weekly
stipend. Yellow Dog and Sioux Sneak
expressed themselves in the very
choicest adjectives of their language
a nil 70 Id -
and. hattered by his reception, the
tenderfoOt invited Mr.. Cody and the
Indian chiefs to his home for tea. Mr..
Cody refused politely, but the two wild
men of the west readily accepted, and
in due time the trio arrived at the
house of the young mans parents.
1t is needless 10 say that the combin-
alton attracted great attention from
several hundred curious pedestrians,
and when the mother turned the cor
ner of the block in which her house
was situated she was not a little SIR
prised to see throng of people stand
ing before her door. Pushing her way
through the crowd she entered, and, to
her amazement. found herself con-
fronted by two copper-faced warriors
OF humanity. gayly bedecked with
chicken feathers, and squatting on
each side of her son. The latter arose,
and, with n smile upon his face, pre-
sented the two chiefs to his parent. AS
Yellow Dog arose and extended his
hand the mothers face became AS
crimson as her hair, but the great
chief was equal to the emergency,
and Strengthening himself up till he
lowered high above the lady he said:
''Me big Injun chief. Us come here
to eat. Me drink much big whisky.
Me ride white pony"
A Mortified expression came over the
lady's face rs she Indignantly ordered
her son to dismiss his guests; but
finally, fearing a scalping scene, a
compromise was arranged and Yellow
Dog and Sioux Sneak supped in the
kitchen.

after camping out, preparatory to
making up the fire and putting the
blilies on to boil, when we heard the
heavy thud of q kangaroo leaping rap
idly in a neighboring scrub. .at was
the work of a moment" as the old
fashioned novelist used to say. to get
out our revolvers on the chance of
shot; but we paused to watch an inter-
esting sight. A dingo was stealing
swiftly along the edge Of the scrub,
parallel to the course of the kangaroo,
and in ordinary circumstances aleaden
messenger would have been sent after
him, with all the more probability OF
stopping him. as he paused occasion
ally to listen; but pOssibly kangaroo
steak was just then nppermost in our
minds. In a minute or two the kan
| garoo suddenly broke for the open
country, and the dingO, for whom he
was evidently unprepared, made a
splendid dash and pinned the marshal
by the shoulder. Almost instantly af-
terward a second diugO, who had no
doubt been driving the game toward
his companion, rushed ont OF the scrub
and took the kangaroo on the Opposite
side In spite of the poor beasts Vlo-
lent bounds hither and thither, he soon
rolled over, and in an astonishing short
time the dingoes had put an endtO his
struggles. "A fresh feed for certain.

began crawling ON our hands and

sufficed to alarm them, and though the
revolver bullets cut up the earth close
to them, both went away unscratched.
The kangaroo was quite dead How
they had mauled him in those two OF
three minutes! His chest was torn
open under the foreleg, and his neck
bitten through and through. These
wild dogs seem to know instinetively

Persian Women.

The outdoor costume of the Persian
women who dwell in towns consists of
a sheet of cotton or silk two yards and
a half long by two yards wide; it is
dyed deep blue with indigo. This
chadur, or veil, among the wealthy
may cost as much AS f5 or 96, and
among the fashionable is often
trimmed with delicate iilmy fringe of
gold thread upon three sides of it.
Lady Harberton's invention of the di-
vided skirt has been the fashion among
the Persian women from time im-
memorial. 1t generally, among the
middle class, reaches Just below the
knee. The wealthy wear it consider
ably shorter, while the village women
and the dwellers i'm tents allow it to
descend to their ankles. When she is
about to go abroad the Persian woman
puts on a couple of long. pillow-case-
like bags of longcloth, dyed of some
very bright color, which are provided
with shaped cXtremities. like stocking
feet, of the same material. They are
fastened at the waist by II girdle, aud
when put on resemble a pair OF pillow
cases with foot ut the extremity OF
each. The feet of Persian women are
the smallest in the world. She thrusts
them into IL tiny pair of high-heeled
slippers, places the center of the un-
trimmed edge of the chadur over her
| forehead, and then draws over her
head her long, white. outer veil OF fine
linen, four feet long and two feet wide.
There is an aperture in this veil an
inch deep aud three inches across;
; this aperture is covered by patch of
/ delicate embroidery. which enables her
! to see without being seen. This Is the
outdoor costume of the Persian
woman; it is an absolute disguise, and
effectually conceals her identity. 1t is
probably the most hideons outdoor COS
iume in the world, and its effect is alb
solutely ghastly, resembling nothing
so much as the frightful costom worr
bv the brothers of MisericOrdia II
Italy. 1t is expensive. ugly, uneoni
Portable, hot in summer, cold in win
ter; its exceeding folly is probably
only excelled by the chimney-pot ha
of civilization. and yet Persian womer
cling to the veil as privilege of thei
| sex.-GOOd Words.

Square-Shouldered Girls.

Fashionable girls in New York are
apparently gone daft on the question
of square shoulders. Anything to
equal the pose young women now
affect is difficult to imagine. While
they are on their feet they are beauti-
full to look upon and beyond criticism
and cavil. 1t is when they are seated
that the great and glaring flaw Ut the
present artificial and fashionable con-
struction of the American young girl
becomes evident. While they succeed
in holding their shoulders back it is
impossible to keep the neck ut the
same angle when seated unless their
faces are held at the same level as the
floor. hence their heads necessarily
droop forward, leaving long and
noticeable distance between the neck
and the back of the high collars. 1t
gives the effect of cut-throat suffering.
But it is remedicd when the girl leans
forward again or rises to her feet.
Then everything fits in with the cor
rect and shapely beauty that is the
second nature of Americas most beau
tiful and famous product.-PhiiacleL-

Labiche's Happy Thought.

The fnlloYing story of the late Palais
Royal dramatic. Labiche, is given by
Il contemporary: During the Franco
German war Labiche retired to his es-
tate near the village of Sauvigny,
where he was promptly appointed
maire. One day the ubiquitous Uhlans
appeared, and, riding up to Labiche,
the officer thus addressed him:
You are maire of Sauvigny, mon
sieurP"
Il am" was the reply.
'Then let me warn yOu," returned
Uhlan, "that if you allow the Francs
Tireurs, now in the neighborhood, to
entrench themselves in this place
shall be under the painful necessity of
burning the village and shooting it's
maire."
But, my dear SIR" replied poor La
bichc, lit must surely be clear to you
that | rs maire possess no power to
prevent any one who chooses from en-
tering Sauvigny. Had L possessed
such power" he added. with a smile.
81 hardly need assure you that should
have exercised it to prevent your
visit. mon capitainer'
Quite so," answered the German
hussar, pleasantly. But | am sorry
to say that shall he obliged to shoot
you all the same if those Francs-Tireurs
do come here and remain.
And, sosaying. he put spurs to his
horse and galloped off with his men.
The next morning the dreaded Francs
Tireurs actually did arrive, and La
biche determined to save the village
and himself, if possible-at once set
of to pay a visit to the commanding
officer. He had arranged his plan of
campaign over night. and as soon as
he came in sight of the Francs-1ireurs'
leader he hurried up to him. embraced
him warmly and exclaimed:
"Ah mon general, you are come to
save us. are you not? For we are sur
rounded by hordes of Prussians. let me
tell You. There is not road which
they do not hold in force except that
one by which YOU have so luckily ar
rived this very hour!
You are quite sure of that?" asked
the Off er, anXiously.
Positive" cried Labiche.
"Then to horse. monsieursr, ex-
claimed the Francs-Tireurs' leader,
curtly; and in less time than a quarter
of an hour the whole detachment had
left Sanvigny and was -hurrying along
the road it had come by as fast rs it
could go. So Sauvigny was not burned
by the Germans, and L1biche was not
shot; and up to the last it always gave
the dramatist exceptional qualification
to explain how it was both were saved,
thanks to his happy thought.

blue and glowin'
Ter be singin'-but it's different when the
same is black'n snowin'.
