The Yellowstone journal. [volume] (Miles City, Mont.) 1893-1901, 1893-04-05

The most costly book iii the world
is the missal sent by Pope Leo x t.
Henry VIII of England at the time
when the title Defender of the Faith
was conferred on that much married
monarch. For a number of years
the book remained crown property,
but Charles II, who had little Use for
missals, gave it to the ancestor OF the
Duke of Hamilton. in whose family
it remained until a few years ago,
when the library of the duke was
sold at auction. The missal was pur
chased by the German government,
which paid for it in cash the cnor
nous sum of so, 900. A much higher
price than this. however, was once
offered for a single volume.
In 1912 Pope Julius II was in need
Of money and endeavored to borrow.
He was at that time the possessor of
q Hebrew Bible. which for some
cause the Jewish people of Venic.
desil~d to purchase. They offered
to pay weight i'll gold for the book,
which was so heavy that the united
strength of two men could barely
lift it. The book was weighed and
the estimate made of its weight in
gold was SEQ 200. Julius deemed
this sun inadequate and declined r.
sell, so that the Vatican Hebrew Bi.
BILE is justly entitled to the distinc.
ton Of being the most valuable book
in the world. Million.

A Telephone in Her Cabin.

Perhaps but one vessel afioat-the
police tug Stckley-can boast of tele.
phone connection with the world at
large. A regular telephone has a
place on the wall Of the main cabin.
and when at anchor off Vine street
the instrument is connected with a
switchboard on the wharf by a heav-
lily insulated wire. When thus con,
nected those aboard can talk to any
part of the city. Or to any point
reached by long distance telephone
without leaving the vessel. -Phila'
delphta Record.

Betrayed by the Spanish.

Queer fix old Dredger got himself
into, wasn't it,"
What was that"
Formed a company to raise a
Spanish galleon that sunk i'll the Pa
cific in 1898. He doomed the stock
on the strength of a bag of guineaa
that the diver brought up and then
some prying idiot looked at the dates
On them and found they were coined
in Madrid in 1876. Dredger said the
date must be a misprint, but the
stock Topped all the same. and now
he's going to size the Spanish govern
ment for damages."-New Yorg

A Tart Reply.

You sit on your horse like Z
butcher" said a pert young officer,
who happened to be of royal blood,
to a veteran general who was some

1T is highly probable" responded
the old warrior. with a grim smile
''it is because all my life I've been
leading calves like you to the slaugb-
tel. "-Texas Siftings.

CARPENTER. Judge Young did not
drive up to the toll gate aud get the
child where it was left on the 14th OF
March, 1884; but Mrs. Young her.
self went out from owingsville (when
they wesV FesidiHg) after having heard
Of the desertion of the babe, aud tool
it home. This was on March Is,
1884. The guardian Of the child has
Iot~b been put undera ruling to produc,
he youngster in Washington. Mrs
Young lives in Mt. Sterling, not in
Bath county. In short, there is scarce
" q particle of truth in the story.
Mrs. Young authorizes us TO deny the
story, and for her make the statement
hat beyond the fact that a child wa
ieft at the toll gate and at once adopt
VI by Judge Young and herself, il
aas no foundation in fact.
