An Old Soldiers Death.

Baron Gemmingen, lieutenant field
marshal and inspector general of the
Austrian cavalry, who died at his home
in Gutleberg, Austria, two weeks ago,
had been an active soldier for almost
half century.
When, on the afternoon of his death,
his physician told him he had but an
hour or two more to live, the old man
sat up in bed and called to his military
attendant in the next room. The soldier
came "Bring my parade uniform" :"
commanded the general. The uniform
was brought. "Now put it on me-"
The order was obeyed, while the old SOL
der gasped heavily for breath.
"Have Fritz send in broiled chicken,
a bottle Of Sec, and an imported cigar"
The order was filed, and the tray was
laid on the generals bed. He ate a
little and drank much. He lighted the
cigar. He smoked it half down without
taking it from his mouth. AS he re-
moved it to knock off the ashes, the end
came. He sank back with the cigar
still between his fingers, and died before
it went out--New York Sun.

Result of Deen Study.

A wealthy newspaper man who lives
in Brooklyn has a six-year-old daughter
who possesses an alert and inquiring
mind. Recently she has become close
student of the almanac. She keeps the
family posted on the weather and is well
informed regarding all of the church
days and the public holidays. One morn
ing she overheard her mother inquiring
whether the ashman was likely to make
his rounds that day. Before the servant
could reply the little girl piped up, "Oh,
no, mamma, the ashman won't be here
until the I'd of March,
"Why, yes, my child" said the mother,
"he certainly must come today or tomor-
row."
"But he can't" persisted the little one.
"'cause that is his day."
"What do you mean, dear% asked the
mother, somewhat puzzled.
Here it is in the almanac" said the
child. "See, March is Ash Wednes-
day."-New York Times.

An American Absentee Landlord.

One of the principal arguments ad-
vanced in favor of deer forests is that
those who are able to indulge in that
luxury spend much money in the High
lands. But how if sportsmen insist on
maintaining forest grounds and never
visit them? Mr.. Winans, whose sport
ing territory extends from the Beauty
Firth to the Atlantic-from sea to sea,
in fact-has not shot over the land once
during the past four years, and as the
deer have in consequence multiplied
enormously, the crofters of the district
have resolved to ask the millionaire to
allow them days shooting.
The application is doubtless made
more with the view of bringing the
crofters' grievances before the public
than anything else, for it is sure to be
ignored. But the continued absence of
Mr.. Winans raises wider and more
important question: Can the setting
aside of great stretch of country as
deer forests which are never shot over
be justified on any ground whatever

Mr.. cr.nnis. Peculiar Land Title.


Some months since the title to the
north side addition to the town of Ham
mond, in Lake county, Ind, one of Chi
cago's suburbs, came into question. The
matter was carried into the courts, and
there it was shown that the land in
which the piece the title to which was
in question, being the northwest quarter
of the southeast quarter of section
twenty five, township thirty seven, range
ten, had in 1856 been by patent granted
to 8. s. Grannis. There was record of
the sale of the lands in 1857 by one S. w.
Grannis, but no record of any sale by
s. s. Grannis, or purchase by S. w.
Grannis. So the judge held the title to
the land to be still in S. S. Grannis. A
search to find S. S. Grannis was then in
stituted, and resulted in the location of
one bearing that name in Sidney S.
Grannis, leading and respected citizen
Of Red Wing, MINI.
Now it happened that Mr.. Grannis
last summer had just completed a genoa
logical record Of his family, tracing it
back to the time when the ancestors first
came to this country, and as another
curious coincidence the initials .sS. S."
occur in no other name in the whole list
than in that Of his. rs. W." is there.
Mr.. Grannis says he feels certain that
the s. S. Grannis referred to is himself,
and he accounts for the land being in
his name in this way: Early in the fifties
one Clark Tillinghast, for whom he had
been working in New York state, went
to Chicago. He was bankrupt, and
being unable to hold land in his name
Mr.. Grannis believes he acquired it in
his (Grannis0 name, knowing that, in
case he should ever be in position to use
it, Mr.. Grannis would quitclaim it to
him.-Cor. Chicago Tribune.

An American Composer in England.

America is not generally looked upon
as the home of composers, but possibly
this is rather due to the narrowness of
our vision than to any lack of productive
capacity. There is just now in England
an American lyrical composer whose
achievements as song writer deserve
for him place among the best of con-
temporary workers in a somewhat wide
field. Mr.. Sebastian B. Schlesinger COM
Dines in no common way the traditions
of the creators of German song and the
freedom from convention which is the

Result of q Mules Kick.

A mule employed to haul the cars at
the Drum Summon mine, in Marysville,
Mon., became balky when about to enter
the tunnel. Of course the owner urged
him with the whip, which so enraged
the animal that it began to kick vicious
ly. A loose shoe was thus vigorously
propelled from the mules hind foot and

who was idly sitting on his wagon, sixty
feet distant. He fell from the wagon as
