ANECDOTES OF THE QUEEN.


She Approved Of n Trouncing That Was
Administered to Wales.
Apropos of the queens recent sojourn
ut Balmoral north of Scotland news
paper has been cleaning from among
the Decsidc pcusantry some new stories
about her majesty's early visits to her
Highland residence. One OF these re-
latcs to the boyhood of the prince Of
Wales, says the Scottish American.
The prince on one occasion, when he
had temporarily escaped from the sur.
vcillance of tho parental eye, played a
trick on young country lad whom he
saw approaching with a basket of eggs
to break all or most OF the eggs The
lad was tough Abcrdonian and could
net brook this injury, M he turned to,
ard, doubling his fists, gave the prince
:hrashing, in spite of the latters pro-
test that he was the prince OF Wales.
prince an a though ye be-" said
the boy, "ye'd nae business tae break
my eggs" Just then the queen up
pcnred, having seen part Of the fray.
Size quietly said; You are quite right,
my lad he had no right to break your
eggs, and he richly deserves what you
have given him." Her majesty after
ward made inquiries about the boy and
sent him to school at her own expense.
Another story relates to her majesty's
visit to the cottagers in the neighbor-
hood. On ono occasion, when she had
been making calls among the cottage
women, she dropped in, on her way
back to the castle, at the house Of an
old woman who did not know her
visitor. Tho old lady was both talk
ative and querulous, and, referring to
o fete at which the queen had been
present that day, complained about
people, including her own household,
running like mad to see . common
clay woman" Her grievance was that
she had to wait till her folks returned
in order to get her tea, for she was too
feeble to make it herself.

Sot a Pleasant PeorIe.

An almost unknown race-or one
rarely visited by Europcans-is de-
scrihcd by Mr.. G.. 5. Robertson. These
people live in the sub-Ilimalayan region
and are called kniiristans. In many
respects they are not a pleasant people.
Their worst mental peculiarities are Gu
pidity, Jealousy, and intcrtribal hatred.
On the other hand they have a strong
family affection and are capable of acts
of hcroism when at war. For killing
one of their fellow tribcsmcn banish-

The pig thus killed weighed about
twenty-five pounds and was mate Of
some other pigs owned by said George

A MERE ACCIDENT.


Was Responsible for the Fact That Ten
nyson's "Timbuctoo" Got the Prise.
Mr.. James Payn tells an amusing
story Of the way in which Tennyson's
"Timbuctoo" won its prize at the uni
versity, says the New York Tribune.
The examiners for the year were
three-the vice chancellor, who had a
great reputation but a violent temper
and did not write very well; a classical
professor who knew no poetry that was
not in dead language, aad mathe-
matical professor. It was agreed that
each should signify by the letters "g"
and "b" (for good" and "bad") what
he thought Of the poems and the vice
had the manuscript first.
When the mathematical professor
got them he found "Timbuctoo" scored
all over with "g's," and though he
could not understand why, nor indeed
the poem itself, and did not think it
worth whilo as he afterward said; the
tho fact was that he was afraid TO ask
the vice his reasons, so he wrote e" on
the poem also. The classical professor
thought 1t rather funny that both his
predecessors should admire so unintel-
ligible q production; but, as he said,
''ho did not care one iota about the
matter" and so wrote ''g" on 1t also;
and rs no other poem had three "g's"
the prize was unanimously awarded to
the author Of "Timbuctoo."
After all was over the three examin-
ers happened to meet one day and the
vice, In his absolute fashion, fell to
abusing the other two for admiring
the poem. They replied very natu-
rally and with some indignation that
they should never have dreamt OF ad-
miring 1t II he himself had not scored
1t over with ''g's" "G's," he said,
'they were as for queries, and
could not understand two consecutive
lines Of it,"
Mr.. Payn says that there was a
queer resemblance between himself
and another Trinity man. mot only

took me for him, but people used to

Mr.. Jay says a favorite motto in
New Zealand is Eight hours work,
eight hours sleep and eight hours
play" The government is about to
experiment on the cooperative sys-
ten of public works, doing away with
contractors and dividing the surplus
among the workmen. The plan is to
establish n price, select by lot the
number of workmen required, pay
the workmen a certain sum per week,
and distribute what is left among
them when the work ia completed.
Mr., jay proEhesies the experiment
will not succeed.
The good workmen," said he,
twill soon find that the trifling men
are not bearing their share of the re-
sponsibility and trouble will be the
result. % operation in work, except
in special cases, lowers the standard
and brings the best men down to a
level with the worst. The loafers
and riil-raif will drive the country
back to the contract system, where
every man is paid, or should be paid,
