The Largest Bell in France.

The largest bell in France is about to
be hung in the beautiful Church OF the
Sacred Heart, which is just being com
pleted, on the steep hill of Montmartre,
to the north Of Paris. This. bell, which
is the gift of the faithful in the Depart
ment of Savoy, weighs about $4,000
pounds. It is 10 feet high, with a
diameter of about 10 feet at the base.
Two men could stand inside of it easily.
While by no means the largest bell in
the world, this big fellow is considera-
bly, larger than any other bell in France.
The largest bell in the Cathedral of
Notre Dame weighs less than 10000
pounds, while that in the famous Ca
thedral of Rheims weighs hardly more
than 10000 pounds.-New York Herald.

Logan on Horseback.

Maj.-Gen. John A. Logan made con-
spiCuous figure in the saddle. His
cual-black hair and tremendous mus
tache gave him ferocious appearance,
though in reality his disposition was
genial one, says the Rider and Driver.
But he often had fits of passion, and
then his eyes blazed. but these ebulli-
tions of temper were evanescent, and
they usually occurred on the battle
fields. Logan was an exceedingly good
h0rseman, his seat being firm yet easy.
When galloping he used to lean back
ward, his feet well TO the front
At critical moments in an engage
mcnt he was won't to 90 at tremendous
speed toward the threatened part of the
line Of battle. His hat jammcd down
over his eyes, his eyes bright, and
his long mustache waving in the air
gave him an odd look while the ter
rife pace of his stced was appalling.
He overcame every obstacle with ease,
and it was beautiful sight TO see his
horse 90 flying over fences. bitches, or
fallen trees, while the rider sat in the
saddle with ease and apparent reckless
indifference.
Logan was the idol Of his troops, for
they had learned that 'Black Jack was
a fearless and stubborn fighter. He was
always as ready to lead a charge as order
one. When matters were going favor
ably and the line was holding its own.
Logan would ride slowly along in per-
feet peace with himself Then ne was
amiable. and though he disliked cheers
on such occasions, he always aeknowl-
edged them by good-hurnored nod Of
his head
Logan was always neatly dressed, but
have seen him at the close of battle
when he looked as If he and his horse
had taken dust bath together. While
he never hesitated to push his men for
ward when il seemed necessary, no
man could be more considerate of the
comfort and welfare OF his troops. Woe
