A gentleman in England died, leaving
his fortune by will to two sons. The
son that staid at home destroyed the
fathers will and pretended that the
brother who was absent was dead and
buried. The absent brother after while
property. Judges and jurors were to be
bribed to say that the returned brother
and son was no son at all, but only an
impostor The trial came on. Sir Mat
thew Hale, the pride of the English
courtroom and for twenty years the
pride of jurisprude heard that injus-
tice was about to y practiced. He put
off his official robe. He put on the garb
of a miller. He went to the village where
the trial was to take place. He entered
the courtroom. He somehow got i'm
paneled as one of the jurors. The brides
came around, and the man gave ten
pieces of gold to the other jurors, but as
this was only poor miller the briber
gave to him only five pieces of gold.
A verdict was brought in rejecting the
rights of this returned brother. He was
to have no share in the inheritance.
Hold, my lord" said the miller.
Hold! We are not all agreed on this
verdict. These other men have received
ten pieces of gold in bribery, and have
received only FIVE" "Who are you!
Where did you come from? said the
judge on the bench. The response was;
lam from Westminster hall. Ny name
is Matthew Hale, lord chief justice of
the kings bench. OF that place, thou
villaiuw And SO the injustice was
balked.-Dr. Tallnage in Ladies' Home

GLADsIONE'S FOREIGN POLICY.
The Powers Fear a Rupture Of the Triple Ali
ance Through Him.

BEELIS. Aug. l4.--Some satisfactory as
surances have already reached the foreign
Office here, through the London embassy
concerning Mr. Gladstone's foreign policy.
All the German political parties viewed
Mr.. Gladstonc's advent as prime miui,ier
with regret, as likely to imperil the solity
of the triple alliance, unless Lord Rose
berry was foreign minister in his cabinet.
As late as yesterday the advices from the
German embassy positively stated that
Lord Rosebery, finding that Mr.. Gladstone
refused TO follow his lead in the position of
England toward the triple alliance, Egypt
and Russia and differing with him in the
essentials of his policy, refused 10 accept
office.
Today's official dispatches announce a
probable entente between Mr.. Gladstone
and Lord Rosebery the former asserting TO
continuance of Lord Salisbury's foreign
policy on its main point.

That delicious fungus growth scion
tifcally called by big and strange name
but commonly known as the mushroom
is Just beginning 10 come picntifully
into the local markets, and they are pre-
pared to stay till late into the fall.
Those which are found in the vege
table stalls in Washington market ar'
of artificial culture and are now selling
1t about Seveuty-tive cents a pound. a
month ago they brought $i.33 n pound
and a month hence fifty cents or ever
less will buy gondly supply of the nu
tlitiaus and delicious white stcmned
and brown topped fungi.
Said the r!i..dy faced and white apron

puis of his perfecto:
Yes. sell good many mushrooms
especially during Lent. Those that
come in now are raised in hothouses in
beds underneath the plant shelves and
they come pretty high, although they
are getting down in price lately. have
sold them as high as three dollars a
pound. Later on III the spring we get
them from the farmers and others who
raise them in their cellars, in shaded
places and even in caves, and during
warm weather men and women and
boys and girls who gather them il
fields and pastures bring them in to the
city. Then we sell them for almost
nothng--as low as ten cents a pound
sometimes. Most Of our customers who
buy mushrooms are people of means
and although we sell great quantities o
them. the people as whole don't seem
to appreciate and understand them, as
should think they would"
The Jolly marke;nan is right, foi
mushrooms are not appreciated as the
should be. Many people have eaten
mushrooms Only when the canned arti
cle has l'ecn served sprinkled sparingly
over steak. There Is vast difference
between tho canned mushroom and the
crisp. fresh md appctizing fungus that
one can now buy in any of the large
markets. View York Telegram.
