What an Old Traveller Says Es-
pecially Referring to the North
Western Limited"

n
Hon. Thomas B. Bryan. vice president
of the Worlds Fair Commission and a
man of national reputation, in his ad-
dress before the Real Estate Exchange
of Minneapolis, at the West Hotel ,.on
the evening of Feb. 8, i'll speaking of
the influence the fair in Chicago would
exercise upon the country, and of the
train service the Northwest offered, in
particular, said that no country in the
world offered more elegant or luxurious
trains in which to ride than he found in
service between Chicago and MInneapo-
lis on the Northwestern Line.
Mr.. Bryan cited the fact that he never
enjoyed such comfort or pleasure on any
railroad train in all his iourneyings of
forty years in all parts of the world, as
he had on the North Western Lin
tied" from Chicago to Minneapolis on
the previous evening.
He supplemented these statements
with the remark that Worlds Fair Wis
itors from abroad next summer will
hold UP their hands in very astonishment
when they see such magniticence on
wheels as the 'North- Western Limited"
and ventured the assertion that this train
would be powerful magnet in drawing
Worlds Fair visitors from Chicago to
Minneapolis, st. Paul and the North
west.
This train leaves Minneapolis every

In a certain Maine town lives man
who for many years has been engaged in
the grocery business, but receiving a
good offer he sold out to younger man
and retired to private life. But the rul-
ing passion was too strong to let him
long be idle. so he commenced building
a store on his land. which adjoined that
of the Methodist church. For time
everything went harmoniously and the
new store neared state of completion.
But just at this point up came one of
the trustees of the church and said,
Your store sets over on our land one
foot and it will have to be moved" This
rather staggered the prospective grocer,
and he retired to ponder over the ques-
ton and study the deeds of his land and
test the measurements.
In doing this he discovered that the
back of the church rested over on his
side of the line three feet. Armed with
this new argument he said to the church
owners, IF you will move your church
three feet | will move my store one"
This view of the case was a new one to
the church authorities, but recognizing
its force they made all haste to effect a

TO A STOLEN PORTRAIT,

Asyou gaze from my library table,
Mid manuscript, letters and books,
lis easy to see you're unable
To regulate all of yo'lr looks.
For could you suspect my transgression-
That stole you and had you up here
I'm morally sure the expression
You'd wear would be shocked and severe.
Yet why should you feel ii a duty
10 frown where your presence enthralls;
Where the radiant charm of your beauty
Sheds grace round my bachelor walls;
Where my pen droops DER renvoys and
proems,
And my eyes stray from Gibbon and Grote
10 study your eyes, and dream poems
Unwrit, save in cloud lands remote2
AS well might some goddess ungracious
Begrudge to votarys shrine
Her image, as thou deem audacious
The homage offer to thine.
But should Madame Grundy's dictation
Outweigh bohemian's plea,
And sentence of prompt confiscation
Be ruthlessy passed upon me,
Pray what if, on closer inspection,
This picture with which must part
Should prove to be but the reflection
Of one that is graved on my hearth

In a curious old book entitled 1.-THE
Wonders and Curiosities of London, -
there are the following particulars con-
corning a minute paddock: In the
twentieth year of the reign of Queen
Elizabeth, Mark Scarliot, blacksmith,
made a lock consisting of eleven pieces
of steel, iron and brass, all of which,
together with the key, weighed but a
small fraction over one grain. He also
made chain Of gold, consisting of forty
three links, which, after fastening it to
the lock and key above mentioned, he
put around the neck of common flea,
the whole being SO minute that the little
insect could draw them over silver
plate with perfect ease. All of these
together, lock, key, chain and flea,
weighed a slight fraction less than 2!
