PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 14.-The Nor.

boy who has circled the globe without a

years ago, at the age of IA, and the tes-
timonials he carried with him are suf-
ficient proof of his travels.
Since Vincent left New York he has
visited every country of interest i'm

America to San Francisco and visited
the Hawaiian Islands. While there he
was entertained by the deposed queen,
whose photograph he carries. Written

In Russia he claims to have been EN-.

out his travels he says he was treated

gions where he has visited. Most of

PLENTY OF FIRE.

Forests All Ablaze ON the Red Lake
M Reservation.
CRooKsToN, Mimi, Sept. 14.--Ex-
tensiye fires are now raging on Red Lake
reservation, near Thief River Falls.
The fire was directly opposite the town
and for several hours it looked as though
the town was doomed. A perfect gale
blew all day and the flames travelled
rapidly. Ats o'clock the wind fell and
probably saved the town from ruin. AT
ST., Hillaire, eight miles from there, the
whole population was out fighting the
fire q mile from town, which is in no
immediate danger. The loss ON the
reservation is heavy. A great quantity
of timber and hay was burned. No loss
of life is reported.

sOnal Charm.
In reality, at thirtv-five a woman is
still pausing at the height of her per-
6onal charm. She gained the height
perhaps seven or eight years before,
but If she has been careful of herself,
has had small experience of sorrow and
pain and apprehension, has not had too
hard work for mind or body, has had
but little illness, has kept her temper
and spared herself worry, she has not
fairly begun the descent; or if she has,
then there is slight pathetic charm
about her, as about the golden tarnish
of rose that drops its first petal, bu,
is still a rose.
For into the beauty of twenty, grad.
ually unfolding and expanding up to
twenty-five or twenty-six, the soul un-
folding and expanding too, has in
filtered a new quality, one which is
wanting to youth except in extra
ordinary instances, and this beauty of
spirit and of intellect has been added
to beauty of flesh with ever increasing
power. And then just as the contours
begin to yield, and the beauty of the
flesh assumes a doubtful part, when
diet and exercise and massage and
sleep, and the right cOlors. and not too
much light, all have been carefully
considered and veil is needed to hide

GREAT GIBRALTAR.
how the Rocky Fortress Impresses One at
First Sight.

When approaching Gibraltar from
the Atlantic, the impression it creates
on the mind is one of grim forbiddance,
writes Cecile De La Nois in home and
Country, in spite of the cozy appear
ance of the two settlements the
Spanish Town" and the English
Town" which are nestled close to each
other, the great barracks, the signal
stations, and the sleepy-looking ship
ping, in the protected harbor. The
great rocky Columns of Hercules"
and Cape Centa, with its giant light
house, are the first things that catch
the eve of the tourist, and the extreme
point of the great rock is shown out to
him as the most southern extremity
of all Europe, and called Point
Europe" in Difference to that distinc-
ton. On the opposite side of the mar
row straits lies the coast of Africa; The
highest minaret of a Moorish palace
towering above the expresses and
palms, while from Gibraltar's shore one
catches the sound of martial music
waited softly across tie emerald
waters, and as one stops to listen, the
well-known strains of "Rule Britannia,
Britannia Rules the Waves" can be dis
tinguished.
The whole scene impressed me as
wondrously beautiful, as the P. and o.
steamer Bombay bore me towards Ma
pies last spring.
I was glad to stop at Gibraltar. I
had read SO much of its history-a his
tory that appeals so strongly to Eng
land, interviewer inexplicably with
memories of their greatest naval victo-
ries, and having justly inspired that
triumphal song, Britannia's freedom
and rulership of the sea.
England's colonies are not all pleas
Ing to the eye. She has been guided
by no aesthetic sentiments in choosing
and fighting for them. Alden, for ex-
ample, is the most barren, wretched
and suffocating hot place on the face of
the globe, according to my notion, and
has not one redeeming feature. But
Gibraltar is brimful of interest, and
gladly availed myself of the opportuni-
ty of going ashore.
