Claimed Ii a Branch

l.. Finkelstein was before Judge
Twohy yesterday, charged with violat-
ing the pawnbrokers' ordinance. His
attorney argued that Finkelstein had a
license at 81 East Seventh street, and
that the store at 80 East Seventh was
simply branch of the place at No. 81,
and under the law an additional license
was not necessary. The case was taken
under advisement by the court.

If he felt sure that he was right, he
made many enemies, but finally brought
about the most radical reforms The
pope recognized his zeal and his tai
3ents by bestowing the red hat upon
him.
In this position his influence was
vastly increased and he set himself,
when the republic was firmly founded
in France, to Offset the intrigues OF the
monarchist parties by Withdrawing the
sanction of the Catholic church from
them. For many years the n,onarchists
felt secure from him and relied firmly
upon the ancient friendliness of the
popes for the monarchical order OF
things in France. Pope Leo was him
self in sympathy with the cardinals
ideas and destroyed the monarchists by
his famous statement, which practically
enioined the Catholics of France, who
were the monarchists, to yield to the
new order of things and give in their
allegiance and submission to the
republic. This browning triumph OF
Cardinal Lavigeries life came just long
enough before his death for him to re-
aHze how excellent his Judgment had

rent carrying them toward great ice
foe. in the center of which was a huge
iceberg.
When they observed their peril there
was no time left to escape wreck. The
sharp edge of the ice cut through her
hull as knife cuts cheese. Two masts
snapped off and fell on the ice, and the
vessel went down as though the bottom
had dropped out. Fifth Mate William
Ward and four men leaped to the ice
foe, and saved their lives They saw
the captain and the first mate strug-
Cling in the water, but could not lend
any help In five minutes the captain
and thirty three men had found watery
graves.
The situation of the men on the ice
foe was desperate, as they were at the
mercy of the icy winds and without
shelter. They hoisted a shirt on frag-
1nent of spar and waited for help from
some passing vessel. They spent forty
eight hours on the ice before they were
seen by the steam whaler Orica, which
mistook them for walruses. Soon after,
the steam whaler Belaiga came along
and took the men on board. All except
Koshan were left at Unalasla, as they
were badly frozen. They will recover,
but Mate Ward will be cripple.

The Palmetto of the South.

The graceful palmetto, that grows SO
profusely in the lower tier of the south
ern states, has recently become factor
in the industries of the south, for its
wood is hard enough to carve and its
fiber is strong enough to make excel
lent cordage and useful substitute for
sponges. In Jacksonville factory has
been started for the purpose of making
brushes and brooms of the fiber, and
elsewhere sink brushes are being made
of the wood, half of whose thickness is
being converted into bristling points.
The young leaves of the tree make
salad that the people are beginning to
appreciate, and the taste of it is hkened
to that of chestnuts. Bears knew about
it long before the people did, and 1t is
favorite article of diet among them, the
black bears climbing the trees and
browsing on the fresh shoots as eagerly
as they browse on watermelons.

The Travels of a Watch.

Have you any idea of the extraordi-
nary amount of work performed by
your watch during the short period of
one year, 365 days? Let us figure little.
The balance gives. s vibrations every
second, 800 every minute, $4,000 every
hour, 49,, 900 every day, and 147,6s0.00o
during the year, At each vibration it
rotates about N times, or, say about
1871, 200, 900 revolutions year. In order
to better understand the immense
amount of labor performed by these
delicate little wheels and springs let us
90 still further with our calculations.
Take locomotive with big e-foot drive
wheels as an illustration. Let the
stupendous machine be run until its
great wheels have made as many rev.
olutions as the wheels of the watch
make during the year and you will find
that the engine has had to make rs COM
plete circuits of the earth before it has
eaualed the watch in point of wheel
revolutions. George Francis Train and
Miss Bisland would be slow coaches
when compared with such rapid tray
elers.

Pilgrims Progress" On the bottom
are the words: THE gift of Nathaniel
Pander to Elizabeth, wife of John Bun
yam, of Bedford, 1911" The English
coat of arms is engraved on the top. and
it bears the stamp of the inspector of
silversmiths, ''E. L."
When Bunyan died the cup was given
to Rev. Andrew Clifford, pastor of the
Baptist church of Bedford. During the
life of this good man it was used as a
piece of communion plate by the con-
gregation whose spiritual welfare he
guarded. Rev. Mr.. Clifford died years
after he received the cup and it fell to
his heirs, who were not thrifty. They
pawned the silver tankard to a London
broker, who held the trophy until Isaac
Maynard saw and redeemed it. When
Isaac Maynard died the cup descended
to his wife by will, and when she was
laid away beside her husband the cup
passed to her daughter, Mrs. Charlotte
Maynard Bach, late of Robinson, Ill.
Mrs. Bach died recently, and the tank
ard is now owned by her son.
At present it is in possession of Miss
Mary Callahan. who secured it as loan
exhibit for the woman's section of the
fair. Although somewhat batteredsand
bent from rough handling, the cup is in
fairly good condition. .3s.

been so prolonged that those who are
in the ffties are, in nerve, and muscle,
and bone and brain, about what those
were who stood in the forties, and the
sixties are as vigorous as once the tfties,
and the seventies as the sixties, and the
eighties are now as were the seventies,
and soon the centenarians will be as
common as are now the septuagena-
rians. For ages, and until within a few
years, human life grew shorter. and
shorter. The race started out with a
generous endowment of years. The
time was when, according to Bible &C
counts, people five hundred years old
were not curiosity. I suppose that
parents mourned over the untimely de-
parture of their children dying three
hundred years old. Yet life, chiefly
through the sins of the ages, got small
err and smaller, until in the time of
Pliny there were only forty persons one
hundred and thirty-five years old.
Shorter and shorter became the average
of human life, until the cradle and the
grave were so near together that hard
ly had the race got out of the one than
it fell into the other.
But the tide has turned, and, thanks
to God, and thanks to medical science.
the average of human life is enlarged.
The human race has so much more to
do than the brute creation and yet
many styles Of brutes outlive the man.
An elephant has lived three hundred
years and whale four hundred years
A tortoise in the archbishop's palace in
Lambeth lived one hundred and twenty
years. Why such creatures should out
live the human race | cannot under
stand But diseases are being driven
back, and the laws of health are being
more thoroughly understood. and
think there are souls who, seeing the
dawn of the twentieth century, will see
the dawn of the twenty-frst century
The time is coming when it will be no
rarity see poets older than Oliver Wen
dell Holmes, or statesmen older than
Mr.. Gladstone. When l see such men
as these working clear on, almost across
the century, conclude that the aged
ought to change their theory about the
best time to quit. Considering the in
creased prolongation of human life, and
the additional means of protecting it,
men and women ought not to put OF
their armor as soon as did our lmme-
date ancestors. In the time of our
fathers and grandfathers, doctors wan
dered around with the lancet, and If a
man had a fever bled him, and if the
case had not developed into anything
special, bled him, when the fact all
along has been that most men want more
blood instead of less blood And I am
glad to know that, except in cases here
