In the world The income Of the impe-
rial family of Russia is derived from the
crown lands, which are regarded as the
cars private estate and treated as such.
They comprise 'over 100000 square
miles. about one-third of the area of the
United States, and include farms, pasture
or grazing land, and forests, while hun
dreds of villages are built on them, the
inhabitants of which pay their rent to the
czar. Many gold, silver, and other mines
are included in the crown property, and
the output of these is believed To be very
large There are no means Of ascertain
ing the exact income of the ear, since
the imperial accounts are not more open

Talleyrand did not like La Fayette, and
be thought the true interests Of France lay
in cultivating close relations with northern
Africa rather than with America.
He says: NJ. de La Fayette belongs to a
noble family OF Auvergne, boasting of but
little luster; under Louis XIV the intelli-
gence OF q woman had brought the name
into some renoWu.
He was born TO a large fortune, and had
married lady Of the house Of Noailles.
Had not an extraordinary occurrence
drawn him out Of the rank and file he
would have been ignored all his life. M.
de La Fayette had not enough in himself TO
come to anything, for he is below the
standard at which one is reckoned clever
man.
In his desire TO distinguish himself. as
well as in the means be uses, there Is
something Il seems taught. What he
does looks as shough it did not proceed
from his own self He gives one the idea
Of a man following the advice OF somebody

Foroe Of Sea HEnraa.

Awful rollers lash themselves into foam
on the exposed west coast Of Ireland, and
in some measured by the Earl Of Dunraven
the silvery spray rose one hundred and
fifty feet. Two life saving boats pulled out
to sea from Dingle bay to test their quail
ties in November, 1854, when waves were
breaking over the headlands and surmOunt-
ing a cliff more than one hundred feet high.
One remained under the lee Of the land;
the other, steered by Mr.. Kearney. pulled
into the seething waters. A tremendous
wave swept in from seaward, extending
right across the bay, and increasing its
height as it reached the shallow water
where the boat was. The coxswain headed
his boat to meet the wave, the men steadily
strained at the oars, and she few into the
roaring cataract, whose overhanging crest
was twenty-five feet above her. Down
came the mass Of water upon their devoted
heads, washing out two Of the crew.
Crushing the boat bodily under water
the wave bore her asteFn at an awful
speed. Each Of her crew was bowed down
on to the thwart before him. One was
stunned, bat the others were conscious,
their eyes wide open, but in total darkness.
They could not determine whether they
were still attached to the boat but felt as
though whirled through q railway tunnel
The boat emerged with each man sitting
in his place, and the first object which met
their view was a buoy close alongside,
which was nearly q quarter Of a mile from
the place where the wave had overwhelmed
them. She had retained the vertical posi-
tion during her submeEsion- Chambers

The nnInhin ainan

The gentle Pliny, who Is frequently
quoted in John Ashton's book on zoology
because Of his having turned in a para
graph commanding the early Christians
for getting up before sun up, was capable
Of interesting narratives. He ground out
one about a dolphin that struck up an 40
quaintance with a nice little boy who
walked around the Lucrine lake from Baiaa
70 Puteoh TO school every day. This dol
phin's name was Simo, and the nice little
boy used to whistle for him every morning
when the first bell rang, and when SimO
would come up thrashsng and splashinR
around, the nice little boy would break of
q piece Of bun or maybe piece Of apple
pie that he had In his lunch basket, for Il
seems in those days the boys mothers used
to put up pieces for them to eat at noon
when school let out.
SimO had quite a mouth for pie, and
finally, by way Of showing his gratitude,
be used to draw in his spines and have the
nice little boy get on a-straddle, and thus
convey him to the steamer dock at Puteoii.
This saved the boy from walking away
round. Aud in the afternoon after school
let out there would be old SimO ready to
take the lad back. This went on for some
time until the boy took down sick with
some malady-Pliny doesn't say what, but
It Is believed that it was infauamatory
rheumatism from getting his feet wet so
often. But anyhow he died. After that
Simo came around just the same, but
there wss no nice little boy there, and the
artless Pliny says that finally the poor fish
Just gave up and died out OF pure grief.
Pliny says that was the talk Of the neigh
borhood, Chicago Tribune.

Tbe Aptlo1itv Of 1Tasonrv.

Freemasons were excommunicated by
the pope in 1898. Freemasonry is Of great
antiquity. It Is affirmed that it has had a
being lever since symmetry began and
honor displayed her charms" Some writ
ers trace the beginning to the time Of the
building Of SOlomon's temple. About the
Sixth century Mohammedsns instituted
free-masonry in Spain as protection
against Christian fanatics. In 675 it was
introduced into Great Britain (some au-
thors give an earlier date). The grand lodge
Of York was founded in 925. Freemasonry
was interdieted in England in 1425, but
after that period rose TO great repute, the
grand lodge Of England being established
In III. The grand lodge Of Ireland was
established in 1873 and that Of Scotland in
1916.
The first masonic lodge in North Amer
lea was the Albion, instituted in 1721, be-
ing formerly No. II, E. R., Of Montreal.
The first grand lodge in the United States
was c0nstituted In Boston In 1913, under
the title Of st. Johns grand lodge. Henry
Price, of Boston, organized the lodge from
q commission sent by Lord Viscount Mon
tague, the grand master Of England.-De-

A lady who had a summer home in q
little town in northern New Hampshire
found the greatest difficulty in getting
anybody to do 'odd iobs' about the prem

''Why, I never can tell, :" she conhded to
friend, whether they will be willing to
do what ask, or whether they'll consider
that I've insulted them"
She had a near neighbor whose husband
was 'ne'er do well" He was a carpenter
by trade, but had long ago ceased to exer-
else his proficiency in that direction, owing,
perhaps, to a lack Of demand for his work.
He was quite happy, apparently, to sit on
his side porch most Of the day, smoking a
pipe, though occasionally he did a little
hOeing.
There was a half dilapidated arbOr on
the city woman's place, which, after un-
successful attempts to cover it with vines,
she decided to have pulled down. Seeing
Mr.. Il, the carpenter, seated with his
pipe, as usual, she plucked up courage to
step across the road to proffer her request.
Before she reached the house the man had
vanished, but his wife answered her knock.
''Well, don't know as he'd feel like
doin' it" she said doubtfully, in answer
to the question whether Mr.. r. would
be willing to come over and pull down the
arbor, If he wasn't busy, that morning.

he might"
