Awkward occurrenoes at Court.

Awkward contretemps happen at
court sometimes, as well as everywhere
else. Years ago one of the Earls of
Gainsborough, who had the habit of
kicking his shoes off at dinner, had
done it, as usual, and when the queen
rose to leave the room he tished under
the table TO try and recover them, but
in vain, and he was obliged to get up
and open the door for her majesty in
his stocking feet"
Another thing happened not long
ago, but the name of the unlucky man
will not be given. Somebody was en-
tertaining one of the princesses at din
ner with a good story, at which she
laughed heartily, and the queen turned
and asked what she was so amused at
The story teller repeated it, of course,
but it was not approved of, and the
queen said, in very severe way, 1--WE
are not at all pleased, and left the
table. London Tit Bits.

Here Is a story told of Professor
Maria Mitchell. After Professor Mitch
ell resigned from Vassar college she
went TO live In Philadelphia. Two OF
her old pupils residing in the Quaker
City determined to call upon their for
mer professor Immediately. On the
way to the hotei where Miss Mitchell
was staying the two ladies debated
with themselves i'm what form it would
be better 10 put their inquiry. II they
asked for Professor Mitchell, the clerk,
not having hid the superlative advan-
tages Of vassar, would probably say
that there was no such gentleman in
the house. On the other hand, how
could they SO lower the dignity of their
dearly beloved psofessor by inquiring
If Miss Mitchell were at homei
The question was a stupendous one'
and after being argued pro and con it
was finally decided infavor of the miss.
The ignorance of the clerk was a fact,
and not to be gainsaid Accordingly,
the ladies on reaching the hotel walked
up to the man at the desk and inquired
for Miss Mitchell Much to their con
sternation they were told that there was
no such person in the house.
81 am sure she is here" said the
lady.
Pardon me, madame" replied the
urbane clerk, perhaps you have made
G.. 1,n cfA
ping at some other hotel"
mo, she is here" and forthwith was
given a most accurate description OF
the distinguished lady. Light began
to dawn in the mind of the puzzled
young man.
II beg your pardon; you mean Pro
fessor Mitchell. Certainly, she is stay.

We lived In a cottage IN old Greenwich village
With tiny clay plot that burnt brown

But it softened at last to my girls patient till

And the roses sprans up in our little back

The roses sprang up and the yellow day lilies
And heartsease and pansies. Sweet Williams
and stocks,
And bachelors buttons and bright daffodilies
Filled green little beds that bordored with
box.
They were plain country pOsiea bright hued

And the two OF ny worked for them, worked

And the flowers she loved in her old country

They made her at home IN our little back

And went to the shop where toiled all the

And at night returned and found my love

And she led through the house, till a breeze

WATERSPOUT AT SEA.

The Captain of the British ship
Elmbank describes in the S. F.
Call his experience with water
spout encountered on the voyage
from Newcastle to Sydney:
Early on the morning of Febru-
airy 9th, while it was hardly day
light, those on deck were startled
by hearing loud noise, which
seemed to be approaching the ship,
and to their horror beheId mon
strous waterspont coming straight
for the ship at railroad speed.
The crew were spellbound. De-
struction seemed inevitable and
nothing could be done to avert the
threatened disaster. The watch in
the hunks below were alarmed and
the men quickly came on deck.
Some ran to lower the boats, but
were stopped by the officers, who
saw that even if the boats were
launched they could not shove of
from the snip IN time.
The roar of the advancing water
spout was now deafening and it
was within half a mile of the ship,
which was lying becalmed, not
even having steerage way on her.
On came the immense pillar of
water, squirming and twisting like
a gigantic serpent towering to the
clouds. 1t had approached to
whiting 200 yards of the ship,
when, with a crash like q falling
mountain, it burst.
"Hold on for your lives" cried
the captain, and the next instant
the ship was struck by the heavy
swell, causing her to roll like an
egg-shell in hurricane off Cape
Horn. Tons of water came over the
rail and flooded the decks. almost
sweeping the men off their feet.
But the danger was over. and
the crew breathed freer as it began
to clear up the decks and coil up
the ropes thrown from the pins by
the rush of the immense body OF
water. In a short time every.
thing was ship shape again, and Of
the terrible danger that threatened
the ship the black cloud rolling
away to the westward alone re-
manned visible.

the school number 700 acres, on
which everything consumed by the

ing it fresh and nice, and enabling
the management to place the cost OF
tuition much below that of schools OF
similar grade. The president of
Cedar Bluff is Hanson w. Browder,

THE NEw-cUT ROAD.
The Lafayette Road Flanks the Toll
Gate Is Turned Into the Dover
Road.

The Lafayette road fanked the toll
gate on the Hopkinsville pike yester-
day. Early in the morning force OF
fifty men was put to work making a
road on the line between Jas. Brunty
and s. l.. Whitfield on the west and
w. M. Drane on the east, between
the Garrettsburg or Lafayette road
and the Dover road. The above
named gentleman gave the right of
way through their premises.
This move turns the Lafayette road
into the Dover road, instead of the
pike, and, we are told gives more
level and straighter road, while the
distance to the city is no further than
by the old route that came in on the
hill above the toll-gate. 1t enters the
Dover road near the orchards on
Buenaventura Farm.
Heretofore the toll-gate has col
lected half fare on all travel coming
on to the pike from the Lafayette
road. The question is, will it now
let this toll go by, or will it move its
dollhouse to its former location just
this side the mouth of the Dover road
and catch the travel from both the
Dover and Lafayette roads?

The Precious Metals.

The superintendent of the census
has sent the Government printing
Office the material for the first part of
the mining vOlumne of the eleventh
census.
The bulletin shows that the pro-
ductiOn of bullion during 1889 was {:
Gold, 1890, 1863 ounces-United States
coming value 1872 ,8S6,944. Silver {:
81 1864, 1851 ounces - United States
coming value, 500, 996,98S. Total,
United States coming value, 500, 1884,
1872. In gold, % per cent. of the
worlds production, and in silver Al
per cent.
From the statistics it appears that
the labor employed in the actual pro-
duction Of the precious metals is
better paid and more productive, in
fact, than in any other industry thus
far MAY, 1891 reported in the bulle-
tin issued by the eleventh census.
The average earnings of all persons
employed at the gold and silver
mines, 1851 was 1926 year, while
the average output per man amounted
to 81 1923 a year.

"oNE ALLEN"
The Ashland City Times Pitches Into the
Sub-treasury Orator in a Way
That Hurts Our Feelings.

The Ashland City Times charges
that "AlIen, of Clarksvillc used dis
gushing language in his speech at the
Poplar Ridge Alliance picnic in
Cheatham county. "There must be
some mistake about this. Certainly
il was some other Allen and not our
John, the original zone" Allen, for
there never was more meek, pious
soul than our One Allen. He is so
modest, gentle and scriptural in his
oratory that people have been ex-
pecting him to take to the pulpit.
The Times, however, later ON locates
him near Collinsville, which excuses
our Allen. Says the Times:
ain the afternoon, as had been an
nounced, John b. Allen, of near Col.
linsville, arose to explain sub
treasuryism, and if the mess
mixed up with oaths, such
as no gentleman should use
in the presence of ladies, is sub.
treasuryism, we will never again
wonder at our most enlightened and
refined men coming squarely out
against it. 1t Is a delusion, and so
demagogueic, that it is causing more
hurt to the order than the members
who desire to keep the order in its
original purity can bear, hence the
noted decline in these parts, which
never could have been the case il the
political damagogues had been kept
out.
at is indeed hard to get 80 near
the prize rs the Democratic party is
now, and then submit to the advice
of such man as Allen Is, who said
that there was no difference in the
two old parties"
Now this makes us feel like fiten',
we can whip any editor who calls our
One Allen demagogue. He may be
a little, or considerably off,on Democ
racy, and he may be bad on the sub.
treasury, but he can't have a foul
mouth or be a demagogue. IL it was
One Allen, then Dick Glenn is to
blame for making mistake and
giving him the wrong speech to say
on that occasion.

on any terms. An informal meeting
was held, in which Mr.. Ritter laid
the whole situation before the men,
