One of the most important personal

D. Happen. OF New York city. Mr.
Tappen is the chairman of the clear

Bank of England.
AS the practical dictator of the clear

The relation it bears to the financial
system of the country at large is indi-

There are many things to indicate It..
the return of gold from abroad and the
renewal of orders for American securi-

Mr.. Happen has for many years been
president of the Gallatin national bank
of New York. He was born in tho
same year that the bank was organ

April, having first lived within two
years of century, was prosperous
merchant, and when the young man
reached his majority found for him
place as clerk in the Gallatin bank.
From that day to this Mr.. Happen has
been continuously in the service of the
bank. having filed almost every posi-

Under his management the bank has
become one of the best-organized imam

Held by the Enemy.

~ fell in love with the young lady l after
ward married while the battle of the Wilder
ness was raging" said Msior Dan Thompson,
a member Of the reminiscence club, that VS.
in session at the Southern. "During the first
days fighting the Confederates charged us a.
cross an old ditch and we're driven back with
terrible slaughter. We advanced and took
up position in the ditch, and for few mo-
ments the roar Of battle died away, with the
exception Of . Confederate battery far to our
left, which kept snarling vciously. Right in
front of me lay young Confederate who had
been shot through the hips. He was hand
some boy not more than II and was evidently
suffering terrible agony. He was trying brave
ly to be man, but the tears would rise to bis
eyes, and in few moments he was sobbing
bitterly. asked him what I could do for
him, and be took from his pocket portrait of
his sister and asked me to give it to her when
l reached Richmond. He evidently believed
that because his regiment had been driven
back the cause was hopelessly lost, and that
nothing remained for the Federal troops to do
but march into Richmond with colors flying.
had the youngster carried to the rear and
cared for and put the picture of bis sister in
my pocket, where it remained to the end of
war. Her brother recovered and was finally
exchanged. few days after the capitulation
of Richmond called on the young lady to de
liver her picture according to promise, and
well, it was another case Of 'Held By the
Enemy The brother and are in business
together in Baltimore"

Earth is Slowing Down

Although there is total absence Of friction
with the medium in which it revOlvss the
earth is slowing down. according to the best
belief of astronomers, but so very gradually
that it can only interest scientists to take It
into account.
He had, by carefully comparing modern OBJ
servations with the eclipses recorded BY
Ptolemy, arrived at the conclusion that ths
sidereal day being the name given to the
space of time in which the earth rotates on iis
axis-had heightened somewhat less than oue-
hcndredth of a second in upwards Of 1900
years.
But another authority, taking the value Of
the moons acceleration, which was found by
Adams and Delaney, found that in order to
represent Chinese records of the eclipses Of
7OS, 600 and 54S B. c., We must conclude the
change in the length of the diurnat rotation to
amount to O.O1252 second in 2,40O.
To put the result of the most recent and
| acceptedly correct investigations into dis
tinctly comprehensive form, it is now sup
posed that the sidereal day, or space Of time
| of the diurnal rotation, is longer by not quite
1-G5th of second than it vas $500 years
ago.
This slowing down is believed to be owing
to frictions due to the tides, over which the
moon has not so much influence as has been
generally supposed.
The tides, moving in the opposite direction
to that in which the earth rotates, and, in
fact, being partly resu 1t of said rotation. sx-
ercise sort Of dragging influence suffi ,isnt In
the opinion of astronomers to account for the
slight diminution in the velocity OF the earth's
rotation.

A Cook Book Wisdom.

A great many wise precep's are found
IN the " Cooks Oracle" published some
hundred years ago. Of which copies are
subjoined:
"Pleasing the palate is the main end
il most books of cookery, but it is my
aim to bend the toothsome with tie
whole S ome. The term gourmand or
epicure has beed strangely perverted it
has been conceived synonymous with a
glutton, who will eat as long as he can
sit, and drink longer than he can stand,
or like the great Gates Of Ksnt, whom
Fuller places among his worthless and
tells us that he did eat with ease thirty
dozen pigeons at one meal, at another
eighteen yards of black pudding"
GA gay marquis said to Descartes,
DO you philosophers eat dainties? lie
replied, 'Do you think that God made
good things only for fools ?'''
The temperate man is the greatest
epicure and the only true voluptuary."
"The stomach is the handspring of
our system, and it influences our ac-
tons. The destiny Of nations has often
depended upon the more or less labor
ious digestion of prime minister.
Pythagoras commanded his disciple
to abstain from beans DR.. Samuel
Johnson said, Some people have fool
ish way of not minding or pretending
not to mind what they eat. For m"
part, l mind my stomach very studi-
ousIy and very carefully, and look up
on it that he who does not mind his
stomach will hardly mind anything
else The pleasures of the table have
been highly appreciated and carefully
| cultivated in all countries and in all
a5es."
"a good dinner is one of the greatest
enjoyments of human life. Mere
money is very inadequate compensa-
ton to complete cook There is nc
question more frequently asked, OF
which a medical man finds more diff.
Guilty in answering to the satisfaction
Of himself and his patient, than, "What
do you wish ME to eat.
"The editor has been materially as.
sisted by Mr.. Henry Osbourn, the ex-
cellent cook of Sir Joseph Banks, rresi'
dent of the Royal Society. lie was SC
impressed by the Importance of his sub
iect that he sent his cook to assist hin
in his arduous task"
"The term epicure means only
the person who has good sense ant
good taste enough to wish to have his
food cooked according to SCI entific
principles, that is to say, so prepared
that the palate be not offended, and ul
timately contribute to health"
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1893-05-05
A Daring Escape.

alt has been calculated that for every 800
bullets fired during the civil war a man was
killed, but saw . regiment of Mississppians
who prided themselves on their marksman-
ship send that many bullets after one man
and fail to get him." said Major James Hux-
ley to the writer. ave were at Corinth and

him to be hanged. He was marched out of
camp to where rude gallows had been hasti.

We were treated to spectacle of quite differ
ent kind. Just as he mounted the gallows
with a guard on either side of him and two
behind him he slipped his small hands through
bis jewelly and let out right and left, knock
ing the first two guards sprawling. The two
behind him stood two steps below him. He
turned, vauited over their heads, and before
the square could come to charge bayonets
had broken through it and was running like a
scared wolf. The regiment broke into An i'm
pulsive cheer, and it was nearly . minute be-
fore the order to fire upon him was obeyed.-
Then scattering volley was sent after him.
