KlRKSTALL ABBEY.
Brief History of an Edifice That Is Famous
In England.

Brief History of an Edifice That Is Famous
In England.
MAGNIFICENT in its decay and study
alike in it's mass and its details, Kirk
stall abbey was founded for the Cister-
clan order by Henry de Laci in 1859.
Its founder had the rare felicity OF see
ing the work completed.
With his own hands he began the edi-
fee, and he gave unstinted aid i'll its
construction and in the promotion OF its
religious work, and he did not rest con-
tent until he saw on the meadow land
selected for the purpose a thoroughly
we'll organized mOnastlc establishment.
The abbey proper, as seen today, IS
but one out Of series OF buildings
erected as compact and lntsrWorkAng
whole 1t twas the opinion OF Sir Gilbert
Scott that all the essential features OF
the combined structure-the church,
the chapter house, the clolsters, the re-
fectory, the dormitory and other build
ings, whose foundations at least may
still be traced, were the work Of one and
the same period and the same mem
struck, as it were, from single die. +"
Of no other important ecclesiastical
edifce Of the Norman or early English
period can as much be said. The abbey
became the mausoleum of its founder.
In it he and his son were given sepul-
ture. For nearly four centuries the work
of the abbey was conducted with more
or less influence.
Some of it's heads made their power
felt in parliament, and the line OF their
succession had run to the twenty-ninth
abbot when the dissolution changed the
character and fortunes of the place. The
monastery and the estate around ltwere
then granted by Henry VIII to Arch
bishop Cranmer and his heirs IN ex-
change for other possessions.
The grant was confirmed by Edward
VI. but in Elizabeth's time the property
had in some way reverted back to the
crown 1t next passed to private owners
and was secured eventually by the Sa-
villes of Howley Hall, from whom it
was transferred by marriage to the
Cardigans.
In the hands Of the Cardigans it re-
manned until 1889, when "the unexpect-
ed'' happened, and the abbey, with its
grounds, was purchased by Colonel j. T.
North at the price Of about 500, 600,
and by him handed over as gift to
Leeds his native town. Kirkstall abbey
is about three miles from Briggate and
is within the borough. - Cassell's

why Does She Always Do 1t?

'Did you ever notice woman mail
ing a letter." asked a postman, who
was talking to an acquaintance on the
street car. "Well, I don't care who she
is whether she's your wife or mother,
she'll go up to the mailbox just as if it
was an internal machine look all
around, and drop that letter in as if she
wouldn't have anybody see her for the
world. That's why some man will al
ways step up and offer to help her; he
thinks she wants assistance. It's the
same if woman hands letter to a
postman-she'll act as if she hates to
have it go out of her hands. -
'How do you account for it?"
II don't try to account fer it. It's
like the way most women pay their car
fare-as if they were most surprised to
death at having to pay it at all, and
then hanging on to it till the conductor
drags it away. 1 guess it may be for the
reason that girls aren't raised like boys
to do things offhand in business way.
But it's so anyway. detroit Free

soLUIER's SONG.

The camp is hushed, the fires burn low.
Like ghosts the sentries come and go.
Now seen, now lost upon the height
A keen drawn sabor glimmers white.
Swiftly the midnight steals away
Reposez-vous, bon chevaliers.
Perchance into your dreams shall come
Visions of love or thoughts of home.
The furtive night wind hurrying by
Shall kiss away the half breathed sigh
And softly whispering seem to say,
Reposez-vous, bon chevallers.
Through starlit dusk and shimmering dew
1t is your lady comes to you.
Delphine, Lisette, Annette-who knows
BY what sweet hayward name she goes?
Wrapped in white arms till break OF day,
Reposez-vous, bon chevaliers.

The action of the Armory Board yes

Louis T. Fitzgerald in favor of furnish
ing the ~seventy-frst Regiment Armory

to furnish all armories In ash and oak
said he. I'VE will not discriminate In
favor Of any regiment. That Is all there
Is to It,"
Whenever the civil and military ends
OF the Board clash the civil end always
wins, and that Is why there Is a belief
that bad feeling exists in the Board,
President Barker usually has his way.

ment has paid of the mortgage on Its
