An Old Rosebush.

As long ago as the year 822 Hides.
helm is mentioned in history. In that
year we are told Louis the Pious, Char
lemagne's son and successor, made it
the seat of the bishopric intended by his
father to be established at the neighbor-
ing town of Elze. Less than century
before Charlemagne had brought the
heather Saxons into subsection and
Christianity was yet new in the land.
Gunther, the first bishop, had been can
on at the cathedral at Reims. Three
years after his elevation to the new
episcopal see he consecrated the first
chapel, naming it in honor of the Virgin
Mary. The chapel is supposed to have
occupied the site under the present
cathedral, where the crypt of the new
church is built.
A pretty rosebush that now clings to
the outer wall of the cathedral choir is
said by tradition to have grown there
since the days of Louis the Pious him
self. In the Twelfth century, when the
choir and crypt were being enlarged, 3
protecting hollow wall was built around
the rosebush, in order that the vine
might continue to grow about the build
ing when the new wall had been COM
pleted. A bit of the old arching may be
seen behind the altar in the crypt. This
is the present voucher for the great age
of the rosebush, and it must be admitted
that many traditions repose upon lesi
solid Foundation. Architectural Record

Notes About Aliigators.

There is nothing that gator likes bet
ter than fresh pork, and he will toddle
three miles from water for a Florida
razorback. In cool weather he buries
himself in mud and becomes dormant
until it grows warm. Hunters still make
living by killing him for his hide and
teeth. The killing Of alligators from the
decks of river steamers in Florida has
been stopped by law. Tourists became
very careless in their use Of firearms, and
would endanger the lives Of passengers
in their haste to get shot before the
boat got by plump saurian. Yet 1t Is
remarkable that only one person, q
woman, was ever wounded in these
reckless fusillades. New York Sun.

Eating shoe Hash.

In London century ago it was nc
uncommon practice ON the part of the
''fast men" to drink bumpers to the
health of lady out of her shoe. The
Earl of Cork, in an amusing paper in
The Connoisseur, relates an incident Of
this kind, and to carry the compliment
still further he states that the shoe was
ordered to be dressed and served up for
supper.
"The cook set himself seriously to
work upon it. He pulled the upper part
(Which was Of fine damask) into fine
shreds and tossed it up into ragout,
minced the sole, cut the wooden heel
into thin slices, fried them in batter and
placed them round the dish for garnish
The company testified their affection foi
the lady by eating heartily of this ex
quisite impromptu."

A bright Horse and a clever Dog.

Few telegraphers are better known in
New York than George Mudgett, of the
postal Office, and there are fewer still
who have better fund Of stories. He
tells of a certain horse who accompanies
a Scranton Pa.) Ineman on his trips.
This horse can see a broken insulator
quicker than his rider, and always stops
when one Is reached. 1t is hardly neces-
sary TO add that the horse can telegraph
with his feet, but no one knows what
he 'signs." The same lineman owns a
dog who can tell by the bell attached to
the district messenger register when q
certain firm rings call. The dog ut
once runs to the store, takes the message
in his mouth and delivers it safely at
the telegraph Office. George Mudgett
says he never invents yarns.-New York

Some practical facts are furnished by
the experience Of the worlrmen engaged
in the construction of the new Central
railway over the main range Of noun
tains in Peru. The line starts from
Lima, in latitude 10 dogs. The summit
tunnel of this line at Galeria is at the
height Of 1886 feet, or little under
the height of Mont Blanc, but 1t must
be remembered that the climatic condi-
tons are very different and more I'M
favorable in Peru than in Europe.
Mr.. E. Lane, the engineer in chief,
finds that the workmen up to an altitude
of 5000 to 10, 900 feet do about the same
relative quantity of work as at sea level,
provided they have been Injured to the
height or brought up in the country. AT
1900 feet the amount Of work deterio-
rates, and at 900 to 10000 q full third
has to be deducted from the amount that
the same man could perform at sea level.
Mules and horses are found to do about
the same efficient work proportionately
as human beings up to about 1900 feet
in the district.-Nineteenth Century.

These are not ornaments, but serious
weapons. They are just large enough
to slip easily inside q woman's gown.
Some women have these made to order,
when they are lavishly adorned and in

They are preferred to reviewers, which

The Latest Thing In Hammooks.

AWAY from the sights and sounds OF q
great CITY. with no fear of the smirch
from its dusty streets and the WEAKNESS
from contact with its perspiring crowds,
beyond reach of the hum of the too Ia
miliar and overload mosquito, the sum-
mer girl has found convenient bough
from which to swing her hammock.
Her hammock is dainty affair Of Next

temperature and a saturated atmosphere
make a few of Us blush to admit.
The very latest thing in hammoclls is
dignified by a name. 1t IS called the
"royal social" and all because it Will
hold two people without mixing them
up. 1t is warranted to swing fat per
son and a lean person at the same time
without disaster or danger of spllllng
either, and altogether it seems to be on
hand to meet long felt want. 1t is
twice as broad as the ordinary ham,
mock and is divided exactly in two,
longitudinally, by the center's being
drawn tight, SO that two hollows, each
with its separate cushion and stretcher,

ing time as they ''swing, swing together

The valancc is an acquisition to We
ordinary, everyday sort of hammock
that finds ready appreciation. 1t very
kindly hides any defects of position that
might be comfortable except for the
knowledge Of it's awkward appearance,
which to one sensitive to appearances
would be serious drawback. The val
ance is graceful in itself, and being
woven of the same colors as compose
the hammock it makes for improve
ment whether the hammock be in use or
empty.-House Furnishing Review.

a NfckeI-SteeI Cannon.

There is being built at the Washington
gun foundry, located at tho navy yard
here, a nickel-steel gun, in which great
interest is felt by experts in ordnance.
The nicke1-steel forgings are on hand,
and as soon as the new patent furnace is
constructed the work of assembling
the gun will commence. This patent
furnace will create departure from
present methods in assembling" guns
(forging the tube and hoops together).
It is claimed that the new method IS
more simple and economical than that
now practiced, besides being less hazard
Gus. Under the new plan it is proposed
to assemble the gun in horizontal posi-
ton. and by the simultaneous applica-
ton of intense heat to the jacket and a
stream of cold water to the tube it is ex-
pected the operation will be attended by
less of the uncertain elements of gun as
sembling than has been the case hereto
fore. When constructed, the gun will be
tested with different charges of powder
70 ascertain whether 1t will bear the
strain better than guns known as all
steel. Many experts believe that the
same advantages obtained by the use of
nickel in armor plates viii be extended
to ordnance constructed of the same ma
terials. After the capacity OF the gun
has been thoroughly tested by the ord
nance men, it will be used for expert
menting with powder. The tests will be
watched with great interest by all per
sons interested in the development OF
heavy ordnance.-Was hington Cor. Phil
