that 200 barrels Of oil were among

\ Knight of the Garter Pin.

James ii. Drake possesses an unique
scarf pin. 1t is nothing more or less
than Knight of the Garter pin, of
which there are none in this country
with this exception, and but thirty-two
in all England. The pattern is a garter
of blue enamel, on which are the well
known words in gilt lettering, sur
mounted by a cross whose points are
set with diamonds. Some years ago
Mr.. Drake entertained party of En-
glish capitalists in the northwest,
among whom was the Duke of Suther-
land. When they took their depart
IRE, greatly pleased with their visit, the
duke drew the pin from his cravat and
placed it in Mr.. brakes. Many times
has he been stopped by Englishmen in
this country who recognized one of the
emblems of the order, and who desired
to know how it came into his posses
sion. Mr. Drake might readily pass for
a duke, but he is as proud of his
nationality as he is of the pin and the
circumstances of its presentation

Only a Mistake.

Little 3-year-old Tom Gibson, of Cal
ifornia, ought to make a good lawyer
if he keeps on. One day not long ago
his father said to him:
Tom, get my slippers. They are
under the bed"
Pretty soon Tom came back empty
handed.
''Fader," said he, ''you told a big
lie"
''How is thatp said his father.
''Well, " replied Tom, II looked UNI
der the bed, and no slippers there. No
slippers there, fader."
THAT wasn't lie, my son." replied
his father "That was a mistake"
The slippers were found and the in
cident was forgotten until few days
afterward Tom came running into
the house with his lips betraying visible
evidence that he had been eating.
''Tom," said his mother, ''what have
you been eating"
Nothing, mother" replied Tom.
'Why, Tom, F" said his mother, there
are crumbs all over your mouth. Don't
you know you have told me a storyp
No" replied Tom promptly, that
was a mistake New York World.

DIR. rALMAeE,s FIRST SERMON.

The Great Preacher Tells How He APP
peared When He Began His Life Work.
All, how well i remember the first
Sunday in my first church,
The congregation gathered early.
The brown stone church was beauti-
full structure within and without. An
adjacent quarry had furnished the ma
terial, and the architect and builder,
who were men of taste, had not been
interfered with. A few creeping vines
had been planted at the front and side,
and a white rose bush stood at the
door, fiinging its fragrance across the
yard.
Many had gone in and taken their
seats, but others had stayed at the
door to watch the coming of the new
minister and his bride. She is gone
now, and it is no fiattery to write that
she was fair to look upon, delicate in
structure of body, eyes large and blue,
hair in which was folded the shadows
of midnight, erect carriage, but quite
small She was such a one as you
could pick up and carry over a stream
with one arm. She had a sweet voice
and had stood several years in the
choir of the city churches, and had
withal a magic of presence that had
turned all whom she had ever met into
warm personal admirers. Her hand
trembled on her husbands arm as that
day they went up the steps of the
meeting house, gazed at intently by
young and old.
The pastor looked paler even than
was his wont. His voice quivered in
reading the hymn, and he looked con-
fused in making the publications. That
day mother had brought her child for
baptism, and for the first time he Off
ciated in that ceremony. Had hard
work to remember the words, and
knew not what to do next. When he
came to preach, in his excitement he
could not find his sermon. 1t had
fallen back of the sofa. Looked up
and down and forward and backward.
Fished it out at last, just in time to
come up, flushed and hot, to read the
text. Made a very feeble attempt at
preaching. But all were ready to hear
his words. The young sympathized
with him, for he was young, and the
old looked on him with a sort of pater-
nal indulgence AT the few words in
which he commended himself and his
to their sympathy and care they broke
forth into weeping. And at the foot of
the pulpit at the close of the service
the people gathered, poor and rich, to
offer their right hand.-T. De Witt

An old gentleman recently knocked
out whole graduating class in a
Western college. He got the boys
together the day before commence
ment, and told them that he would
give SO to every man who would
answer correctly two plain, everyday
questions. The questions were as
follows: "What is the origin of the
common phrase, 'to hope against
hope?' " And "Why is the human
ear shaped as it is, instead of being
fat?" Not man answered the ques-
ton correctly, and the old gentleman
went away declaring that colleges are
a failure.

Cause of Sea sickness.

The causes and philosophy of sea
sickness have always been a great
puzzle; but the most generally received
theory at present is that the trouble is
due to the inequality of pressure in the
blood vessels In a craft tossing on the
waves the blood is made to flow first
this way and then that, naturally pro-
ducing disturbance. As for remedies,
nothing has been discovered that is
more effective than the traditional piece
of salt pork on the end of a string

JAY GOULD's EARLY STRUGGLES
When Jay Gould was beginning life
as surveyors apprentice in the Cat

dinners and to have put his savings
in his pocket by making noon-marks
on the farmhouse porches for the
farmers wives, the noon-mark being
a sort of dial that indicated the hour
when the horn should be blown for
dinner. With the money thus earned
and saved tannery business became
possible, and after various slow steps
the Vermont railroad yielded the
