wall needed support. AS he spake a gust

HOW TO DRINK WINE.
straight Tips by an Unquestionable
b


Wine ought to be pressed at the prop
err temperature, and champagne as cold
as it can be made without absolutely
freezing. No ice should ever be used in
champagne or in s%prinkling wine. The
bottle should be put under or covered
with ice before serving. Champagne
drank with ice in it is merely drinking
for show, It leaves no pleasant taste,
makes the wine fiat, destroys its fla
vor, and depresses its beautiful spark
ling qualities,
Claret and Burgundy, on the contrary,
should be drank moderately warm. A
gentle warmth drings out an apprecia-
ton of body, diminishes the astringency
and develops all the finer qualities prom
surprising to note fhe carelesSness or
cras ignorance with which good clarets
are served and drank.
White &WineS such an Sauterne and
Rhine wines and others of similar char
acters, should be drank comparatively
cold or cool. While a chilling tempera-
ture destroys the flavor of claret, it has
wines, bringing out the bouquet and
giving them an agreeable. fresh, spicy
Port. sherry and Madeira should be
partaken of at a moderately warm de-
gree of Temperature n If used in
winter should be gently heated. These
wines loose in body and flavor by being
severely under such lowering temporal
ture, when exposed to cold, acquiring
a harsh, then acid taste, nearly akin to
bitterness. Swine and Spirit sGazette."

HEREDITARY EVILS.
The Victim Can Not BE Held Re
spOnsfble for Their Effects.


Some insane instincts, as a mater OF
fact. do exist among us, revealing theft
destructive ferocity in a thousand forms
of suffering sins, shame and temptation.
Not a living soul has entirely escaped
some injury, hereditary or immediate,
direct or Indirect, from their lordships.
Yet we are instructed to regard them as
scarcely modifiable factors of existence.
They recall to emo the fabulous
monsters of ancient story, who used to
ravage and destroy whatever crossed
their path. carrying terror to the hearts
of men, until at length some hero went
forth to STAY them.
The monsters of today, unhappily, do
not permit themselves to be slain so
easily. They spit fire, as of yore, they
rend and pierce and tear, but they are no
longer to be overcome in one sharp
struggle, after the fashion of their more
worthy ancestors. 1t is through the my
sterious forces of heredity that the evil
gathers such unholy strength. 1t seems
as if nature had some mystic storenouse
wherein she earned secretly, moment by
moment, the thousand influences of daily
life; the lurings and c~ompulsions OF cir
cumstances; and that these, accumulat-
ing silently and inexhorably, became
transmitted into living passions, imper-
Gus needs, which we are wont to call
%suatural impulses" and to accept in the
same resigned spirit as that in which
the German welcome typhoid fever as q
part of the divine scheme.
There is something appalling in the
knowledge that because a man's grand
father allowed evil habits to grow upon
him. that man|4s to be cursed all his life
with some awful punishment; tormented,
perhaps, with a strength of mere crude
instinct entirely out of harmony with his
whole character, causing him hin
struggles, unless the worse thing hap
penEagain through the existence of some
hereditary weakness-and he surrenders
the human side of him to the encroach-
ments of the animal.-Westminster Re-
view.

BRIDAL R HURT
Painful Accident TO tho Grand Dnk
Mfchaclovftch and Princess XenIa.

Vt Vtttn ANA hfAahNGsH
BERLIN, Aug. 10, 1SY4.-Mail dispatches
from St. Petersburg tell this story of an &C.
cident which befell the Grand Duchess Xenia
and the Grand Duke Michallovitch shortly
after their marriage on August G:-
The Grand Duchess and her husband were
driving from the Imperial Palace to Chateau
Kopscha, near Krasnoe-Selo, where they
were to pass the next three days. They had
just left the wedding dinner party and drove
along the highway with q small escort and u
few members of the Imperial Russian family.
The whole district along the route was
ablaze with fireworks which rendered the
horses restless and blinded the c~oachnlan.
Upon nearing a bridge upon which Greek
fire was burning the horses bolted the coach
man could not see to guide them and the
carriage was thrown over the enibank-
ment near the bridge and upset IN the
ditch.
The bridal couple were thrown TO the
ground with great force. Both of the
Grand Duchess's arms were sprained, her
face was scratched, her body was bruised
and her clothing torn. The Grand Duke
suffered less severely. The coachman
was injured internally. The bridal couple
were helped to another carriage
and taken to Chateau Kopscha. The Car
and Czarina were summoned in haste, but
when they arrived at the Chateau were in
formed by the doctors that their daughter
was not dangerously injured. The Grand
Duchess was kept in bed three days, but is
now recovering rapidly.

BETRAYED BY HIS SWORD.

When Napoleon the First entered Cairo,
on the ed of July, 1898, he was presented
with three swords of honor, richly laid with
precious stones. He brought them back to
Europe. and in 1902 he gave one of them to
Marshal Ney and another to Murat, keeping
the third for himself.
Ney received his at an Imperial reception
the sword passed from one to another OF
those present among whom was a young
subaltern of the Auvergne regiment.
When Napoleon escaped from Elba Ney
left the King and took sides with his former
chief. After the Allies entered Paris the
place became too hot for him, and he made
preparations to get out of the country wltha
pass procured for him under a false name,
but his wife and a friend persuaded him that
there was really no danger, and he decided
to say in France.
Then came the order for his arrest. He
fed to a castle in the possession of some
friends, and succeeded in reaching it with
out his whereabouts becoming known.
But he was destined to be betrayed by the
sword of honor given to him thirteen years
previously.
He was one day looking at the paintings
in one Of the more public rooms OF the
castle, which he usually avoided, and feel
ing tired he threw himself on a couch,
first taking off his Oriental sword, which he
always wore out of affection for the En-
peror.
Suddenly he heard voices; he sprang up
aud hurrledly left the room, forgetting his
sword A minute later a party of ladies and
gentlemen entered the room, one of them be-
ing the young subaltern of the Auvergne
regiment. now a colonel.
He at once recognized the sword, and in
spite of all the owner of the castle could do,
he called in some gendarmes and proceeded
to make a search Tor Marshal Ney.
Finding that he was discovered Ney gave
himself up quietly. On December Z, 1915.
the Marshal was shot, scarcely two months
after the owner of the second sword-Murat
met his fate in the same way.

BANGED BY HAILsTONEs.

Boston, Aug. 10, 1e94.-The worst hail
Revere yesterday afternoon. Hailstones
fell that by actual measurement varied from
a to TO II inches in diameter. In an in
credlbly short time the streets and fields
were as white as they ever are
in winter. The hail fell five min
utes before the rain came. Garden
plants were stripped of their leaves and
foliage, fruit was. cut from the trees and
many window panes were broken. More
than 1000 panes of glass were smashed IN
one greenhouse. The teamsters had a hard
time with their horses, and runawavs we're
numerous, but the only damage resulting
was the death of one horse, which fell and
broke his neck.
