The Oldest Inhabitant Gone.

Amos Andrew Parker of Fitzwilliam.
N. H., died Friday.
He had several titles to fame, thechief-
est being that he was probably the oldest
person in New England. He had reach
ed the truly remarkable age of 1O1 years
months and days, and up to the very
LAST all his bodily and mental faculties
were in an excellent state of preserva-
ton. He was graduated trom the Uni
versity of Vermont in 1918 in class of
10 members. the next oldest of whom
died in 1879.
Mr.. Parker was an editor and lawyer.
The journalistic profession is surely not
conducive to longevity, so that the case
is very remarkable one.-St. Johns

Criticism of a New Yorker.

The most insignificant atom in all Gre
alton has its uses. A foolish little dirty
wisp of straw may show which way the
wind blows. The bristle of a pig may
be utilized for scrubbing purposes. And
although it is hard to see at first what
possible cause so infnitesimal molecule
as that tiny bit of dried up, grayish mat
ter known as the brain of Ward Meal
lister may subserve, certain it is that
even that apparently worthless bit OF
sponge may point moral and disfigure
not adorn-a tale to some purpose. AT
the sight of the great prince of bottle
washers and menu makers our scorn
will vanish, and we shall be isping
cringingly, as heard a Chicago belle
murmur to New Yorker the other day,
81 am afraid you find us very crude aft
er New York" That is the way to in
vite contempt. If we run to Ward Nc
Allister or after him and vie with each
other in filing his jaded nav with the
best our chefs afford, we shall be as bad
as he.-Chicago Post.

Preferred Prison to Liberty.

Robert Robinson, better known as
"Old Bob" life convict in the north
ern prison, died Friday night at the age
of 80. Robinson was notorious through
out all the northern part Of Indiana
among the thousands Of excursionists
who annually visit the prison as perhaps
the first one on record who positively re-
fused a pardon and regarded the prison
as an acceptable home.
Robinson was sent to the prison at
Jacksonville, Ind, in 1857 from Wayne
county to serve life sentence for MUIR
der. After serving two years there he
was transferred with others to this city
to assist in building the northern prison.
After the labor was finished he worked
on contracts until he grew old, and then
during the wardenship of the late Charles
Mayne in the seventies he became a
"trusty" and farmland. AS he adj
vanced in age his oddities grew upon
him. Early in his prison career he form
ed a strong attachment for dumb ami
mails and made pets of dogs, rabbits,
squirrels and foxes. He also developed
into a great hunter and trapper and
would frequently turn his skill to finan-
cial account.
Once during the Mayne regime Bob
got lost while hunting in Porter county,
west of the city, and actually hired a
man to bring him back to the prison. In
1877 Governor Williams offered Robin
son a pardon, but he rejected it.-Michi-
gan City Cor. Chicago Tribune.

LAUREATE'S HONORS
HAVE BEEN BESTOWED ON LESS
WORTHY MEN THAN RUSklN.

Nevertheless His Selection by Mr.. Glad
stone to Wear the Laurel Wreath OF
Tennyson Seems Incongruous-Ruskin
Scan. Poetry and Profuse Prose.
The announcement that Premier Glad
stone had chosen John Ruskin for poet
laureate to succeed the honored Tenny-
son struck Americans generally with
amazement.
Of the young and middle aged readers
comparatively few knew that Ruskin was
ever accounted poet, and they knew it
only because of his recent published state
ment that he quit poetry writing at the
age of 26. AS he is now "a, one would
think that 49 years of total abstinence
should have established his reputation.
and that offering him the laureateship
now was very poor joke indeed. Yet
some of his poetry was quite good, and
while at Oxford he took the Neudigate
prize for poetry on production styled
''Salsetto and Elephanta. At the age
of 26 he wrote some lines on Mont Blanc
and these he declares were positively his
last.
At the age of "a he wrote Modern
Painters" which at once gave him a
great reputation. In 1849 he published

Crowds In London.

English reporters can never agree upon
the number of people in a crowd. Els
Inmates of the numerical strength of the
eight hours meeting in Hyde park
ranged from 10000 to 100000, while the
actual number was probably about 100,-
900. The figures given in connection
with Wednesdays loyal demonstration
differed almost as absurdly, the lowest
estimate being 10000 and the highest
100000. Police calculation, which is
generally fairly reliable, puts the num-
Der at 100000, reckoning people all along
the route. At some favorite spots the
crush was tremendous, but there were
surprisingly few casualties. The Metro
politan corps of the ST. John Ambulance
brigade was on duty. The staff consisted
of surgeons, IL ambulance officers, II
nursing sisters and 81 rank and file
while the transport consisted of pairs
horse ambulance wagons, wheeled lit
ter and 30 stretchers. A hundred and
fifty cases were treated. mostly faints.-

The Jersey Peach Crop.

A letter from bennington, N. j., says:
Two hundred and ninety replies to 300
inquiries sent out to the largest peach
growers in this part of the state regard
ing the prospects for this years
substantially report that the pros
for very large crop are good. The co.u
spring weather retarded the growth Of
peach buds until the late frosts were
over. The buds are opening now and
are healthy in appearance. In the year
of full crop Hunterdon county has
yielded 100000 baskets. It is expected
that that number will be exceeded this
year. Similar encouraging reports come
from Warren, Somerset and Sussex coun-
ties, where the peach interest has great
ly developed in the last five years.

Through Trains on Trunk Lines.

The 26 west bound trains which run
daily on the railroads connecting New
York with Chicago average only s
through passengers each. The joint
committee of the Trunk Line and Cen
trail traffic associations infers from this
small number of through passengers that
there are too many through trains run
ming on all the roads. They use this as an
argument that the New York Central
should not put on it's 20-hour limited be-
tween New York and Chicago and report
that through trains ought to raise their
fares as their time is quickened, adding
the following extra rates to the regular
fares:
Twenty-SiX hours. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. So
Twenty-four and one-half hours. ............ Il
Twenty-Five and one-half hours.
Twenty and one-half hours. ................. IL
This would make the cost of trip on
the Central's 2O-hour limited, with S. for
the sleeping car, $35 each way. or $40 for
the round trip.
The attempt to gauge the profits OF
running through trains by the number
of through passengers is in the highest
degree fallacious.-N York Adver-

Miss Charlotte w Hawes, of BOSTON, is
making an effort to have the church bells of

famous chime is in the tower OF Christ

the church by the citizens Of London in 1874.
these bells were formerly ruug in the ola

visited Boston in 1874 the city authorities had
the bells put in order, and they rang out a
