pension rolls OF tho Territory for the purpose

The most fruitful time for the com m lsslon OF
frauds against the Government was during the

Tuesday Rev. John II. James of Lou
doun county, Va, made an attempt
to smash the rum power. Walking
into the agricultural building at the
Worlds Fair grounds he came upon
the handsome whiskey exhibit made
by Sir John Powers of Dublin, Ire
land.
Suddenly he raised heavy hickory
cane he was carrying aud smashed
away at the bottles arranged in the
form of the famous Round Towers of
Ireland. Three times he smote the
exhibit. bringing down about twenty
bottles and spilling the liquor on the
floor OF the building. Then he was
seized by two guards and the club was
wrenched from his hand.
A patrol wagon was summoned and
the clergyman had u ride 10 the patrol
barn, where he admitted smashing
the exhibit. He was kept Il prisoner

Their Rnrned the Vampire.

To most people the word vampire
only brings up visions of noxious South
American swamps, whose banks TEEN
with venomous creatures, legless and
otherwise, nightly visited by myriads OF
large, leathery winged bats, which are
reputed to have an Unsuitable taste for
human blood. To the ancients it meant
something far different. There was a
time when all Europe believed the vam-
pire to be blood sucking ghost of de-
funct human being. The most celebrat-
ed of these blood chilling vampire stories
is that of Arnold Paul. During life he
had resided near Madnerga, Hungary.
Within 80 days after his burial four per-
sons near the place Of interment had
died, each with the marks of vampire
small blush missions in the throat.
Another person had been awakened in
the night and recognizing PauIs ghost
in the room cried, "Avaunt, vampire!
in Jesus name" whereupon the appari-
ton instantly vanished.
When this story was told, the town
projects held meeting and determined
to open Paul's grave. This was accord
ingly done. Thee was blood on the lips
of the corpse, also.uron his hands. The
ambassador of Louis XIV, who was pres
ent at the disinterment, declared the
proof positive, and Arnold Paul's re-
mains were hoisted to the surface. burned
to ashes, and the ashes scattered to the
four winds. 1t is needless to add that

SOMEBODY BlUNDEREO.

The official report Of the disaster
by which the British war-ship Vic
toria was rammed and sunk by the
Camperdown, causing loss of nearly
four hundred lives, has been made
public. Admiral Tryon was response
BILE for the accident. He ordered the
ships to accomplish movement that
could not be made with safety. The
danger was shown him and he refused
to acknowledge his error. The COM
mander of the Camperdown hesitated
to obey the order, and was signalled
to comply with it. He did so, and the
mighty prov of his steel monster
crashed through the sides of the Vic
toria. Seeing the disaster, the other
ships of the fleet at once prepared
their small boats to go to the rescue
of the doomed men. With singular,
fatal perversity, or dense ignorance,
or perhaps mind unhinged, Admiral
Tryon ordered the boats back. In
obedience to that rigid discipline
which is paramount in the English
navy, the ships crew were ordered to
their posts, and not until the vessel
was sinking beneath their feet was
the order given to save themselves.
1t was then too late. They could not
save themselves, the other vessels
had been forbidden to rescue them,
and four hundred lives were sacri-
feed for one mans criminal incapac
ty.
Admiral Tryon went down with his
ship. 1t is believed that he preferred
death rather than to face the result
of his errors. Indeed, high English
official says that, had he lived, he
must have been court martialed, SEN
fenced to death and shot unless par
doned by the crown.
After all, what a monstrous thing it
is for Christian nations, in a Christian
era, to spend so much treasure, to
sacrifice so many lives, to cause so
many hardships, in preparation for
wars that ought never to be waged.
