other places the contents of which if ex

severe as for selling but more
complicated to execute. Vermont will
probably be more or less af1iicted
with that manner of liquor traffic until
the laws for transporting are better en-
forced and our local newspapers cease
advertising for Boston liquor dealers.
1t is gratifying to know that some of
our local newspapers refuse such adver-
tisements.

A Onaar Taxt.

A good story is told of Chiuaman
who is employed as a cook in q Cali
fornia family. He recently saw in q
confectioner's winhuw huge cuke on
which was q motto made OF frosted
sugar. And knowing that his master
and mistress were very religious, being
specially given to reading the Bible, he
determined TO give them q pleasant
surprise by making cake with text
from the Bible on it. He wasn't very
familiar with tho Bible, but he hap
pened to bnve some tracts in his roo n
which contained numerous ''texts, +" and
he concluded TO use one of these. So he
went to work, made o most beautiful
cake, and with truly oriental patience
emblazoned it with text. But the
feelings of the family may be imagined
when John proudly placed his master
piece on the table and they read Oh It
these words: "Yc generation of vipers,
who hath warned you to Zee from the
wrath to Gomez"

Lost on tho Lady Elrin.

-. I. hecorueT.
With reference to the recent marriage OF
the seyenty-three-Year- old English rail-
road magnate. Sir Edward Watkin, to the
eighty-five-year-old Mrs. Ingram, who is
the principal proprietress OF the Illustrated
London NeIcs, 1t may interest American
readers to know that the aged bride lost
her first husband as we'll as her eldest son
in this country.
Both father and son persisted on Lake
Michigan while travelling on board the
Lady Elgin, which foundered with so
people immediately after the collision with
the schooner Augusta. Only about fifty
people managed to escape, and neither
Mr.. Herbert Ingram, NJ. p, nor his son
WAS among this number.
Nor were her first husband and eldest
son the only members of the new Lady
Watkins family who met with violent
deaths. Her youngest son, Walter. was
killed about four years ago by an infu-
rated bull elephant while shooting big
game on the east coast Of Africa.
