A MARBLE MANTEL.
One of the Historic Relics Dating
Back to Colonial Days.

Among the historical relics to be seen
within the confines of jackson Park is an
old marble mantel from Rhode Island that
did service away back in the early days. 1t
occupies the central room of the State Build
ing, and if it only possessed the power of
articulation could unfold many stories of
heroism and deeds of daring. It is said that
circled around the fireplace over which this
mantel rested, a little ban of brave men
plotted and planned, the night of June 8,
1772, to capture the Gaspee, an armed British
schooner then anchored in N~arragansett Bay,
ostensibly for the purpose of suppressing
smuggling, but actually engaged in piracy.
Its crew had boarded the old ~colony's yes
sells and taken from them, without pay,
whatever in the shape of stores the sailors
could lay. their hands on. They had ever
compelled a citizen of the colony to serve in
the Kings navy without giving him a chance
to bid his family farewell. This was more
than the c~olonists could stand. That day
one of their number resolved to put an end
to it. He sailed up through the west passage
in full view of the Gaspee. 1t gave chase to
his little sloop, but got stranded on a sand
bar, and thus failed to catch him. He landed
safely in the little village, and that night or
gained to give the enemy battle. In the
house of one of the wealthiest citizens,
where this handsome old mantel was an
evidence of luxury, gathered the anxious,
determined men of the village. Before day

with fighters swept out into the bay and
bore down on the Gaspee. They were
Joined en- route by another from Bristol
under command of Captain Simeon Potter.
As they approached the Gaspee a volley
of musketry greeted them. But they
sailed on and soon captured the
stranded vessel. The combat was short
and decisive. The English commander
was wounded, the Gaspee was set on fire and
burned to the waters edge. The crew were
taken ashore and left to find their way to
Newport as best they could. The British
Government offered a reward OF 81, 600 for
information that would lead to the convic-
ton of those engaged in the affair, but never
got it. 1t is claimed that the wounding of
the commander of the Gaspee was the first
British blood shed in the contest that re-

Where One May Secure Proper Holt
day Gifts.
There is a decidedly metropolitan air about
the fine store of O'Brien's, No. 1877 Newark
avenue. The convenient arrangement, the
large assortment from which to choose, and,
above all, the prices, so very low for such
excellent articles, explain why the firm is
making such a pronounced success. The
holiday stock is unusually large, especially
in the line Of useful presents. Realizing that
money is scarce, the firm has decided to
sacrifice their stock of cloaks at half price;
also the large line of blankets,
for which the house is noted. An
other useful gift may be chosen
from their assortment of muffs, of which
they are making special feature. Umbrellas
are here in great variety-the tight roll, the
Dresden handled, and all the newest styles
for men and women. The line of handker-
chiefs, especially large silk ones for the neck,
is well worth in speeding. For gentlemen
one may choose from a tempting exhibit Of
ties, selected with especial care.
For ladies, there are gloves, for day and
evening wear, as well as silk mits and nit
tens. Cologne and extracts are to be had in
a large variety of handsome bottles, or put
up in pretty cases. An especial feature is
the display of evening dresses, surah and
bengaline especially, in every desirable tint
for reception wear.
The goods have been selected with great
discrimination, and from them it is easy to
fit out the most e~xacting with suitable n
at the same remarkably inexpensive gifts.
