Origin of a Famous Hymn.

1t is well known that the hy1i
Hold the Fort" was inspired by tt
story of the signals exchanged q
Gems. Sherman and Corse when tn
latter was besieged at Allatoona, Ga
but few know how the idea We
brought to Mr.. Moody's mind. IeI
Boston Globe says that once whc
Gen. and Mrs. Corse lived in Chicag
Mr.. Moody called. While there d
took up a book that told the story o
that famous conflict in which CofS
had been so badly wounded, and, Sc
ing the message from Gen. Shermsl
Hold the fort! for am coming E
claimed, enthusiastically: What }
magnificent motto that would be tof
marching song for the army of Chrla
And the day after the famous hy1,
was written, beginning with "H2'
the fort, for | am coming, Jesus ss

in almost every hamlet on the COZ

ocean have become familiar to the can
of men who never heard Of Gen. Oo'S

AN EGYPTIAN hAREM.
A Glimpse of the Home Life oil an orie

A Glimpse OF the Home Life OF an Orien-
tai Princess.
Climate, religion and customs, says
Blackwood's Magazine, make the
hareIn a most uncomfortable home for
Europeans and servants, however well
they may be paid. Ismael introduced
French women to dress the ladies and
their hair, and English women or ltal-
ians to get up their profusion Of fine
linen. An eastern princess bills would
be something portentous If the wash
ing were sent out.
One ironer complained that her suf-
ferings between the fire and the flat
iron were terrible. Sometimes an
English governess would spend long
day at work with the thermometer at
116 degrees; and during Ramadan,
when the household is sully or asleep,
and all the filters locked up, she had
to go out to buy the water for drink
ing. Nor were the posts of the ward
robe keepers more of sinecures. One
woman had five hundred dresses in her
charge, and she was expected to pro-
duce any of them at moments no.
tice to a princess with a marvellous
memory for toilets. But as for the
word wardrobe" that is n misnomer.
The dresses are all slowed away in
boxes, and were they not taken ont for
frequent airings, the moths of the
Scripture would make wild work with
them

OUT IN THE COLD.
Kept Warm by Love Alone, and Not Any
Too Warm Either.

The steps leading to the platform of
a railway car are not supposed to be a
very pleasant place for society young
lady and gentleman to ride for any
considerable distance, especially when
the train is running at the rate of forty
miles an hour on a cold, dark night.
But this is what recently happened
to such a couple all the way from Balls
ton to Saratoga, says the Albany Even
ing Journal, and the probable outcome
of the incident will be an after-Easter
marriage in high life.
The couple in question had gone to
Ballston to take tea with a mutual
friend, and to return by the nine p m.
train. Being little late in reaching
the depot, and finding the train under
motion, by desperate effort the young
woman gained the steps to the rear
platform of the last car, and the young
man followed her.
The train was now moving at rapid

A LONG DANCE.
An Oli-Time English Actor Who skipped
from London to Norwich.

An OlJ-Time English Actor Who skipped
from London to Norwich.
The longest dance on record is prob
ably that of William Kemp, an actor of
some celebrity in the reign of Queen
Elizabeth. He was a comedian and
danced all the way from London to
Norwich. He was attended by a tabor
er, servant and an overseer and the
Boston Globe thinks it was doubtless a
good thing for him that there were no
omnibuses or police then, for they
would probably have imposed more i'm
pediments in the way of his progress
than did the country people. He start
ed with several presents of greats and
crooked siXpences for luck, and laden
with these danced TO Stratford with
out rest. There many invited him to
drink, but the notes of the tabor cut
short his jocularities, and he pranced
off to llford, where he had to reject
another carouse that was offered to
him. From Ilford he danced in the
moonlight to point near Romford,
and that ended his first DAYS exploit.
subsequently he went in for early
rlslngs to avoid market people, and
though suffering from a sprain of the
hip which he received he danced it
well again, to the delight of the
crowd that accompanied him, some
Two hundred in number. When he
reached Chelmsford he was so exhaust
ed that he could not dance at all for a
tlme' and his fourth days dance was a
hard one-thick woods on each side
and lanes full of deep holes, so that
sometimes, he says, ne ''slipt up to the
waist" which must have placed him in
woeful plight. He rested at Braintree
ana danced three miles off his next
DAYS Journey. His next stop was at
Sudberry, where butcher tried to
dance with him, but in half a mile he |
was tired and had to give in. He |
danced the ten miles from Bury to
'Ihetford in three hours. His next |
stage was to Rockland, from which |
point his post attempted to accompany |
nm, but lay down from fatigue at the |
end OF two fields. When he reached |
Norwich he had to dance in and out of
the city twice, for his overseer missed
him in the crowd and made him do the
distance over again to avoid any posi-
bility of error.

SEAL WITH A STORY.
Adopted by the Woman's Board Of Man.
ayers OF New York.


ayers OF New York.
The woman's board of managers of
New York has adopted a pretty seal
which is to be affixed to all
its official documents. 1t repre-
sents an Indian woman stand
ing on q rock-bound coast holding a
blazing torch above her head. In the
distance is shown family the outline
of one of the vessels of Columbus feet.
There is a pretty story which goes
with this based upon the report made
by Columbus on his return to Spain, in
which he said that the night of October
IL, 1892, he saw light moving on the
land. The theory on which this story
is built up is that an Indian woman
was waving the torch as signal to her
husband, fisherman, who had been
delayed in getting home in his frail
canoe.
