Guests Who Are "stayers. +"

1t often chances that guests outstay their
welcome, and that what promised to be
pleasant visits ended in mutual desire to
see no more of each other on the part of
host and visitor. Mr.. James Payn, the
English novelist, says he knows of certain
noble lord who discounts all chances of this
sort by reading out each morning the list
of those persons he has got weary of; not,
of course, impolitely, but by means of such
announcements as this, Your train, Mr.
Guy, goes at 80, and the carriage win be
at the door at IL o'clock sharp" But in
genious fellows of social aspirations and
small income avoid hosts of that sort
OF one particularly SHARP" adventurer
it is told that he once stayed the entire
autumn at certain Scotch country seat.
A fellow guest astonished at finding him
there, and SO long, observed, II did not
know you knew Lord FL. ?" 81 didn't know
him, nor his wife either" was the shame
less reply; "but knew they were not on
speaking terms, and that each would be
sure to think the other had invited me.
and it is really capital house to stay at. "

A Legacy Lost by carelessness.

No matter how carefully lawyer draws
a will, some other lawyer can be found to
pick flaws in it. S. J. Tilden was one of
Americas great lawyers, and left will
written by himself, in which he could de-
tect no defect. Yet, hardly was it pub
lished after his death when some of the
heirs began legal fight that lasted for
years.. The same state of affairs exists in
England. but in the recent case of Totem
ham versus Ely, on trial at London, care
lessness was shown to have played large
part.
The late Lord Ely bequeathed $4,000 to
his cousin, Adam r. C. LOTUS, son of his
late uncle, the Rev. Lord Adam R. C.
LOTUS, unless he should Immediately on
the testators death succeed to the title OF
Marquis of Ely. The name adam r. G.
LOTUS" was a mistake of the craftsman
for that of lord G. H. LOTUS" Parol
evidence is allowed to explain latent am
biguities, but here the ambiguity was
patent-that is on the face of the villas
the gift was to nonexistent person, and
Mr. Justice Kekewich refused to permit
parol evidence to be adduced.
This is certainly hard, and as the Will
gave him another designation besides his
name, namely, "son of my late uncle" and
as he was, both at the date of the will and
on the death of the testator, the. only sur
viving child of that uncle, some attempt
might have been made to obtain the legacy
for him on the ground that the rest of the
description of him was falsa demonstra-
ito. Still this would be dangerous, as a
testator might intend the gift for person
whose death he had not heard of, and not
for the person who best answered the de
scription at the time of the execution Of
the will and the testators death.

The Ancient vine at hampton court.

For centuries the great grapevine at
Hampton Court has been an object of in
terest to people who visit that historic
English locality Each season it renews
its youth, and the present year it has done
better than ever, producing 1900 punches
of magnificent grapes, all of which are the
property of the queen. But while the vine
fiourishes, the ambitious creations of man
thereabout decay The task of renewing
and replacing some of the carved work in
the Fountain court at the palace has
been completed. and the result is some
what peculiar OF the forty or fifty carved
heads which adorn the court, it was discov-
cred that nine had crumbled or were fast
crumbling. owing to the inferior stone
used. These have all been removed and
new figures put in their place, better stone
having been used.

In the meantime l will give him all
the liquor he wants, and in three days
after take him he will refuse it. will
do more for liquor habitue in three
weeks than can be done for him else
where on the face of the globe. will
place him where he was before he ever
tasted liquor; in fact, will put him back
to his early boyhood days"
The doctor does not exactly claim the
power to work miracles, but this comes
very near it. The method is simple. The
patient is required to observe regular
habits, take dose of bichloride of gold
every two hours and submit to four hypo-
dermic injections of some unknown prep
aration per day. Ordinary cases of the
opium habit are cured in from eight to
twenty days, but it is an odd fact that
longer time is required to cure woman
than man. Any man, DR.. Kelley says,
can be cured in three weeks and any
woman in four, this time being allowed
for the worst cases.
Branch institutes have been established
at Philadelphia, White Plains, N. Y, and
Blair, Neb. "Neurasthenia" is the enemy
Dr. Kelley aims at-that is, degeneracy or
loss of tone in the nerve tissue, which is
the great curse of modern civilization, the
cause of insomnia, irritability, insanity
and hundred lesser evils One of the
strangest features of the case is that men
who have been at Dwight are eager to pro-
claim the fact; instead of concealing their
former condition they revere it and rejoice
greatly in the cure.
Curious and important facts have thus
been brought to light, not the least curious
of which is that three-fourths of the NOR
phine victims are physicians. In the insti-
tutes there are two classes-the jovial and
the morose; the former are the whisky
drinkers, the latter the morphine users.
The latter live very much to themselves
while under treatment, form no clubs, and
snce away from the place rarely mention
it. The liquorites, however, not only or
ganize all sorts of social affairs while at
the institute, but express regret on leav-
ing, revisit the place with delight and
form "Bichloride clubs" in cities where
enough of them can get together.
Many of the patients at Dwight have
been professional men, including several
preachers and very large proportion OF
talented newspaper. writers.
Conspicuous among the latter was Opie
Read, of The Arkansaw Traveller, and he
is enthusiastic, indeed, over the results,
but some of his statements have very
doubtful ring. as, for instance, this little
testimonial: when l was at Dwight a
Swede was employing crippled old horse
in hauling beer to Swede settlement a
few miles beyond the town. One day as
he was passing the Kelley institute the
horse failed under his load and fell ex-
hausted in the gutter. One Of the doctors
of the place, seeing the misfortune that
had befallen, gave the horse couple of in
jections of the gold. The poor animal suf-
fered in the ditch for awhile, and then got
up as strong as ever. But do you know
that forever after that horse refused to
haul the beer wagon? He would draw the
ginger ale and brown pop, but he wouldn't
move q step if there was beer on board"

of disease or ~
wounds is not recorded. The noted Bou-
LANCER entered the military school of st.
Cyr at seventeen, and after graduating
went into active service, winning his first
honors in the Italian war of 1859 and re-
ceived a serious wound at Turbigo.
In 1860 he was a lieutenant, and as such
went to Cochin China, where he greatly
distinguished himself and was made a
captain. He was major when the war OF
1870 began and behaved so well that he
was given colonelcy. He was publicly
thanked for skill and bravery in the defense
of Paris. In 1890 he was made brigadier
general and given a command in Tunis,
but it appears that about this time his am
bition made him insubordinate, and he
was transferred to the war Office. In 1886
he became minister of war.
In this position his intrigues became no.
torious. He had married wealthy lady
but they now separated, and he entered on
his wild struggle for popular leadership.
He seemed gifted with the power of win
ming the admiration and support of all
who associated with him, especially wom-
en-. The wealthy Duchesse Dues placed
her fortune at his disposal, and some 81, 300,-
600 of it was spent in creating party, the
grossest corruption being practiced. The
government became alarmed, and sup
pressed the Patriotic League" which was
forming to support Boulanger in his de-
signs for power and revenge upon Ger
many.
lie BRAY General" was the popular hero
and was elected deputy by enormous ma
jorities The government ordered prose-
cution on charges of malfeasance in office.
He fed and his followers were disheart-
ened. Then came the famous publication,
"Les Coulisse de Boulangisme," giving a
full account of his intrigues and the fraud
on the Duchesse Dues, and the party was
crushed For awhile he consoled himself
in the society of Nine. de Bonnemain at
Brussels. She died few months ago. He
sank into hopeless melancholy and killed
himself at her grave.
