Great Britain. The law providing for
the issue OF passports upon application

years In order to avoid International

conclusive with the department, and
where the papers We're improper in
the event Of arrest in a foreign coun-

So in Rossa's case, though everything
appeared regular, IL was found upon

Over the New Method of Assemh,i,,
The force at the Washing ton ordnance
shops has nearly completed the assem-
ping OF the first nickel steel gun for the
navy, and the result is awaited with in
terest. The ordnance officers have been
engaged some time in the construction
OF furnace for heating the tube of
TINS gun, which is of inch caliber.
The furnace will apply the heat to the
gun IN horizontal instead of in per-
pendlcular position. The jacket, the
piece OF metal which fits over the base
OF the tube and gives it greater strength.
Will be forced over the tube while the
latter Is kept beyond the expanding in
nuences OF the heat by the constant ap-
plcatlon OF stream of water.
The delay in assembling the gun, the
forglnSs OF which have been ready for
some time, has been caused by the diff
hculty IN securing a pyrometer, a deli
cate instrument tor registering the fear
full heat of the furnace. This instru-
ment has been received, and everything
is ready for the assembling of the gun.
There IS naturally much interest among
ordnance experts over the result of the
new system OF putting great guns to-
gether, for, if the proposed method is a
success, it will take the place ct the old
way, which required a good deal of
shifting Of heavy weights and the use
of shrinking pit.
There is also much interest in the
trial CT the nickel steel gun. 1t is ex-
pected that it will prove stronger and Of

The costliest meal ever served, as far
as history shows, was supper given by
Aelin Verus, one of the most lavish of
the latter day Roman aristocrats. The
supper was only intended for a dozen
persons, yet its cost was 5000 sestertia,
which would amount to e4S, 900 in Eng
lish money, or nearly quarter of mil
lion dollars.
The celebrated feast given by Vitel-
lius, Roman emperor Of those degen-
crate days, to his brother Lucius cost q
fraction over 100000. Luetonius says
that this banquet consisted of 1000 diff
ferent dishes of fish and 1000 different
fowls, besides other courses in proper
tion. Vitellius, fortunately for the
world, did not reign very long; other
wise the game preserves of Libya, Spain
and Britain would have been exhausted.

THOMAS GopRePRAlsEp.
A Man who Bears That Peculiar Name
Tells How IL Originated.

The register OF the Girard House re-
Gently recorded the arrival in the city of
Thomas Godbepraised of Barrow -in-Fur-
ness, England. Being approached upon
the subject of the oddity of his surname,
Mr. Godbepraised said:
Eyes, | suppose the name does sound
very odd to Americans. although such
names are not altogether unusual in
England and especially in Lancashire,
which was a stronghold of the Round
heads or Puritans in Cromwell's time.
My home is in Barrow-in-Furness which
is in Lancashire. My ancestors prior to
Cromwell's time were all royalists. The
family name was Elliot. A younger son
renounced the religious faith and politi-
cal opinions of his forefathers and be-
came Puritan. As was usual in such
cases he abjured his carnal name of
Charles Elliot and took the inspired one
of Ezekiel Godbepraised.
"There is quite a romance connected
with this ancestor of mine. He fell in
love with the only daughter of Colonel
Fielding in the Cavaliers army, and not
being able to obtain her fathers consent
to their marriage Ezekiel abducted her
and for two years kept her hidden in a
dreary house that stood near the little
town of Formby, where a son was born.
After battle little TO the south of the
River Mersey between the Cavaliers and
Roundheads her brothers discovered her
and carried her off to old Furness abbey.
In the hurry the child was left behind,
but as a result of the mothers pleading
one of the brothers returned to Formby
to get it.
"In the meantime Ezekiel had discov-
cred his loss and removed the child.
Then the followed the brother back to
Furness abbey, but arrived too late. The
brother and sister had set sail from Bar
row beach for the isle Of Man. A storm
came up, and Ezekiel arrived just in time
to see the boat founder. He returned to
his child more bitter against the royalists
than ever and brought the child up with
the same sentiments.
"At the close of the war Ezekiel adopt
ed the trade of u weaver and settled in
Barrow-in-Furness. Thus the name was
perpetuated. the stern commands of the
father forbidding the son to throw off the
fanatical nickname when the heat of Pu-
ritanical zeal had given away."-Phila-
