People often fall to realize, or at least
frequently forget, how many and cx-
tended are the charities in New York,
asserts the Mail and Efpres, until tho
report Of some association forces it upon
their attention. Take the last report OF
the New York Association for Improving
the Condition OF the Poor. 1t shows
what good work has been done during
the year ending September 3Oth, 1871.
The association has been in existence for
nearly fifty years. 1t makes no distinc-
ton OF religion or nationality. Its aid l9
freely extended to all who may need 1t
and are fit recipients. During the past
year it has helped in various ways 81, GIG
persons; 4570 people have been given
meals and lodgings; clothing and shoes
have been furnished to 1893. persons
1910 women have been supplied with
orders for sewing; 6,021 visits made by
the associations employees; ninety one
persons placed in hospitals and institu
tions; 1873 cases of consumption treated
753 persons secured temporary employ
ment, and last, though not of the least
importance, eighty. three persons seeking
aid were proved to be frauds. The as
sociation has fresh air and public bath
departments.

The Hanging Gardens of BABYLON, so
celebrated among tue Greeks, covered
square 400 feet on each side aud were
built up in the manner of several large
terraces, one aO0ve the other, until the
nciglt e4uIlIed tnat OF the walls OF the
CITY. Tue ascent was from terrIce to
terrace by stairs ten feet wide. The
whole pile was supported by vast arches
raised upon other arches, one upon
another, and strengthened by u wall
twenty-five feet thick surrounding it on
every side. On top OF the arches were
first laid large Hat stones slxteen feet
long, and four broad. Over these was
a LAYER of reeds mixed with quantity
of bitumen, upon which were two layers
of bricks closely cenented together with
plaster. The whole was covered with
thick sheets Of leti, upon whlcl lay the
mound of the garIen; anl all this hoor-
ing was coutrivel to keep the moisture
of the mound from running OFT through
the arches. The mound OF earth laid
thereon was 50 deep that the greatest
trees might take. root IN 1t; aud VITA
such the terraces were covered, as well
as with all other plants and flowers that
were proper for a pleasure garden. In
the upper terrace there was an engine or
kind of pump, by which water was
drawn up out of the river, and by which
the whole garden was watered. In the
spaces between the arches upon which
the structure rested were large and mag
niticent apartments that were very light
and from which the view was beautiful

JNmcs Monroe.

The fifth President Of our country was
James Monroe. His ancestors were Vlr-
glniaus, but we have no memorials of
them, They were, however, among the
first settlers OF America.
James Monroe was sent to William and
Mary College; but when eighteen years
old he left it and joined Washington at
New York. He was present during the
fighting and retreat across the Jerseys,
aud in the battle OF Trenton was severely
wounded. In the battle OF German
town, Brandywine and Monmouth his
bravery and skill were conspicuous.
Then he began the study of the law with
Jefferson; but when Arlold and Corn
wallis invaded his native State he was
quickly found among her volunteer de-
tenders. At the age Of twenty three, IN
1772, he was member of Virglnia's
Legislature, and was again elected in
1897. Then he was Minister to France,
and two years after was made Governor
of Virginia. Minister to Spain aud Eng
land followed, and in 1911 he was again
Governor of Virginia.
Soon after President Madison called
him to the duties of Secretary OF State.
In 1916 he was elected President, and
again in 1920. In his first term, Illinois,
Mississippi and Alabama were admitted
as States, and Florida was ceied to us by
Spain. His second term was 50 unaul-
nous that he had but one dissenting
vote-that of New Hampshire. II was
during his second term that Lafayette
made his interesting progress through
the country.
When very young he marriei Miss
Kortrlght, lady of New York, whose
beauty and excellence have been greatly
prased by John Qlincy Adams. For
nearly fifty years tuey lived TO gether in
the greatest happiness aul death only
separated her from him for a few months.
Monroe, like Ads ms and Jefferson,
died on the Fourth OF July, and was
buried with public Eonors in the Second
Street Cemetery, Washiu gton, 1881. In
1853 his remains were removed by the
State of Virginia to the cemetery OF lol-
!ywood, overooking the City of Rlcl-
mond, being escorted to their final rest
int place by the Seventh Regiment Of
New York. III Detroit Free Press.

$3.50, 900 was IN coupons and registered
bonds, $3.50, 900 in certified stocks and
$4,000 in bank bills. OF the burglars,
only Dunlap and Robert G. Scott were
convicted and jailed. Another of the
mer, Red" Leary, escaped from Lud-
low street Jail in New York city and
went to Europe. After expeuding
great part of the banks money there,
he returned to this country and was ar

was brought to Northampton. hut, part
ly owing TO his identity not beiug fully
established, and partly to the restitu-
ton of the securities brought about
by Dunlap and Scotts threats OF
testifying against him, he was
not prosecuted. He died aftcrward in
New York from the effects of injuries
received in q scrimnlage. Dunlap who
Is 45 years old, was sentenced for 90
years, IA of which he has already
served. Four years would have been
deducted from his original sentence for
good behavior, and this ardon will
cover only two years of his long inn
prisonment. Dunlap will have about
$1,000, the accumulations of a small
pension, with which to begin his career
in the world. Upon rrgaining his liberty
he went to Chicago, which was his
home before his Imprisonment -OzNoLA

A "Consolidated Black Cat Company"
has been incorporated at Fair Haven,
Washington. One of the Puget Sound
islands is to be devoted exclusively to
the development and multiplication of
black cats. The projectors expect to
make millions out of the fur of the sable
felines, and this mercenary view of the
case seems, to the Chicago Ners, to be
the only redeeming feature of the project.
We have learned to our cost some salu
tary lessons regarding rabbits and Eng.
lish sparrows, and those Washington
spectators should go slow on black cats.

The New York Tribune remarks:
"English papers which speak of the Re.
publicans carrying the entire State of
Philadelphia can't find language to ex-
press their amazement at the prevailing
ignorance of this country in regard to
English affairs. And it is all the more
funny when we remember that, as n
matter of fact, intelligent Americans
keep themselves particularly we'll in.
formed in regard to English affairs.
You couldn't throw pebble in the street
of any big town in this country without
hitting a man who knows more about
the really important features of London
than many of the average citizens OF
London itself"

An unique character is Mrs. Mary
Chynoweth, the millionaire "Christlan
Scientist" OF San Jose, Cal. On her
beautiful estate of Eden Vale she has
built house of 100 rooms, III which she
lives with the families of her two sons,
devoting all her time to making converts
among her neighbors. In large build
ing on the property she breaches Gin
spired" sermons every Sunday, aud
afterward publishes them in volume
entitled "The True Life" She believes
she possesses miraculous powers, and In
yites the afflicted to come to her fol
cure. Nevertheless she declares she IS
not a splritualist, and explains her pe-
culiar habits of life by saying that she
is influenced" to do and say certain
things. She is woman OF sixty, ana
until she was thirty eight she had never
road the Bible. Yet when she first made
religious address, she quoted freely
from the Bible, fact which is not so
strange when one considers the tricks OF
memory. Mrs. Chynoweth's income If
derived from iron mines IN Wisconsin,
and her wealth is estimated at IS, 600,
900. She says that she discovered the
mines under the "iniuerces' that shape
all her actions, and one of her sons cor
roborates this statement, declaring that
test pits were sunk in a locality pointed
out by her near Ashland in Wisconsin,
where rich veins are being worked to
day. In speaking of her powers she

Ancient Laws aud Lawmakers.

In ancient days nobody but lord was
deem worthy to establish rules OF con-
duct for the people, and very crude rules
they were, too. The Greeks at the timo
of the Trojan war, the Hebrews, the
Irish aud the Anglo.Saxous placed a
money value on every crime which man
committed. Thus it cos. about S65, 900
of our money to murder king and only
$4,000 to kill a priest. If the fine was
not paid then the friends OF the king or
priest could fall on the murderer and kill
him. II one man scratched another's
face he had to pay for it. Such were
the laws of the lords; but rs civil zation
advanced and the common people got
seats in legislative assemblies, criminal
jurisprudence took on dignity and wis
dom. Now we have good laws aud vir-
tuous lawmakers, as u &c neral thing, but
we still m maintain the notion that lord
is better than anybody else, as witness
the growing exclusiveness of the United
States Senate, and in England the long
line of hereditary peers.-Olepslana

Simple Remedy for DiphtIerla.

A simple and valuable remedy for
diphtheria is the application of parafne.
The diphtheritc patch is scraped oil and
the parafiine is applied every hour
to the throat (internaly) with largo
camel's hair brush. As rule the thr pat
gets we'll in from twenty-four to forty
eight hours aud with improvement in
the throat the paratfinc is applied less
frequently, but its Use is advisable for
two or three days after the complete dis
appearance Of the patches. - -ChicdQo

Musical MOnarchs.

The fact that the taste, the ear and
the talent for music are found to prevail
among the inhabitants of the mountain
GUS districts of the world far more ex-
tensivcly than among the population of
the plains may in some measure be the
reason why all persons in exalted spheres
of life are passionately fond OF music.
With the solitary exception of King
Humbert there is not monarch now
teigning who does not play, and play
well, some musical instrument or other.
Indeed, were it only possible for some
clever conductor, such as Johann Strauss,
to assemble and drill them into playing
in harmony with oue another, all those
wars and rumors of war which from timo
to time do so much to injure the progress
of civilization and the development Of
science, art and trade, would become a
thing of the past.
The Gar finds amusement in playing
on large silver cornet, the clear, ricg-
ing blasts of which arJ often heard
ecnoing through the halls of the palace
at Gatschina. Queen Elizabeth, of Rou.
mania, is proficient on the harp, En-
press Elizabeth, of Austria, on the either,
the Czarins, the Princess of Wales aud
Queen Marguerite of Italy are all mag.
nifcent pianists.
TIE reigning Duke of SAKE -Coburg-
Gotha, the brother r-in.law of Queen VIC
toris, plays with all the skill Of virtu-
oso on the violoncello. Queen Victoria,
before sac became afflicted with rheuma
tism, g)ut and other sii lar ailments
was wont to play exquisitely on thu
organ, having been taught by her hus
band, the late Prince Consort. The Duk
of Edinburgh frequently performs il
public on the violin, while the Prince o
Wales retains his banjo for domestic en-
tertainment and solace. e.-NcW Yor
