Game To tho Last,

The pluck for which English people
are noted is an admirable quality. It
has carried them through good many
tough matches at home and abroad. A
sketch Of the late Lord Drsyton shows
us an amusing exhibition of this pa-
tional characteristics.
The author of the sketch was accom-
panying the carl, then eighty-five years
of age, down the stairs to see him safe
ly into his cab On descending the
stairs they were met by CHEEKY old
gentleman, little OF stature, Mr.. John
Levien, who was slowly ascending. hat
in hand, mopping the dew of his bald
head with his pocket handkerchief.
The writer, knowing that both his
friends, strangers TO each other, were
proud of their ages, said to them as
they met on the stairs: "Let me intro
duce gentleman Of eighty-five to o
gentleman of eighty-two." Eighty
two, .sir!" echoed tho earl, slightly lift
ing his hat TO Mr.. Levien. 'pll run
you round the square for fyer." Some
days afterward Mr.. Levien called on
the writer again, and remarked slowly
and with much solemnity: 1--WE been

AN EARLY INSTITUTION.
Godfathers and GodInothers in England
In Medieval Times. .

GodfatherS and GodInothers in England
In Medieval Times. .
We must, doubtless, look to the Jews.
for the origin Of godfathers and god
mothers. The use Of them in the prim-
tive church is SO early that it is not
ca ~ to fix Il time for their beginning.
Some of tho most ancient fathers make
mention of them, and through all the
successive ages afterward we find the
use of them continued without apy in
terruption. BY constitution Of Ed
mund, archbishop of Canterbury, 1895,
and in a synod held at Worcester. l240,
n provision was made that there should
be for every maio child two godfu, hers
and one Godmovhcr. and for every fe-
male one godfather and two godmoth-
ers. King Henry VIII, referring to the
Princess Elizabeth. says:
my Lord Of Canterbury,
have suit which you must not deny me,
That is, . fair young maid that yet wants bap-
tism,
You must be godfather, and answer for her."
Henry Will, Act w., Scene 5.
A constitution of 1881 makes pro-
vision for a Christian name being
changed at confirmation; this is prac-
tically remaining of the child. The
manner in which 1t was done was for
the bishop to use the name in the invo-
cation, and afterward for him to sign a
certificate that he had SO confirmed a
person by such new name. 1t is posi-
BILE that this practice might have been
in Shakespeare mind when he wrote:
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized,

From the Park Ridge depot the
thieves carried the slot machine, which
weighs over two hundred pounds, nearly
a quarter OF a mile below the station
and broke 1t open and cut off the lower
end of the bag that contained the
pennies.
At Montvale and Pearl River a num-
Der of express packages were rihed, but
nothing OF any value was secured:

MISS GERRISH PREVAILS.
Henry G. Hilton Refuses to Settle
His Suit for SI25,0OO.


Sylvia Gerrish has issued her ukase,

has promptly declined 5000. which his
father, Judge Hilton, has offered him
on behalf Of the firm OF Hilton, Hughes
& Co., in settlement of Henry G.'s suit
for $500, 900.
When the younger Iiilton's devotions
were sidetracked some time ago from
his wife and children and the rest OF the
family, to Miss Gerrish, the actress, II
was simultaneously found that his ex-
penditures were taking him too far out
upon the financial sea, and consequently
the great dry-goods Arm, OF which he
was a member, treated him like another
Jonah, and threw him overheard on
Miss Gerrish thereupon advised this
discarded member to sue the firm for
$500, 900, which he did.
After many delays Judge Hilton, see
ing that his son was bound TO take the
matter into court, invited that young
gentleman's counsel to investigate the
Arms books and see just how much
was due to his client. The investigation
proved that, with the 100000 per year
which his client had been spending for
some years, his share re would Up the
