Wolse.ey and Gordon.

But let us reeur now to the charm of intercourse with Lord Wolseley, and to the happy and kindly qualities which endear him to his friends. He is at his best when speaking of his war experi- 'enees whether in the New World or in the Old. No one has ever given more graphic sketches of Lee and of Stone wall Jackson than Lord Wolseley can give, as the French say, between the pear and the cheese; and his stories of the Crimea, of the Indian mutiny, of wars in China and Africa, are hardly to be equalled. Let,us take a Crimean story first, promising solely that mem- ory. however vivid, is not a phonograph and in this instance it is careless of in cldental details, which added little but local color to the picture. The tale was elicited by a question as to whether Lord Wolseley knew Charles Gordon in the Crimea and what he thought of him
 "Oh, yes, I knew Gordon; knew him very well. We were subalterns to- sether; young fellows just beginning life, full of spirits and go. In spite of all the hardships the road before us seemed bright, interminable-aiwa leading upward. Gerald Graham, Cor don, and I were together in the advance works in front of the Redan. We had already come to look on Graham's cour- age as something almost superhuman. You know his height, we'll on to six feet six inches, I should say We'll, he used to stand up on the trenches and pay no more attention to the Russian fire than if the bullets had been snow balls; and when he was relieved in the evening, instead of crawling along the trench under cover, he used to step out of it on to the open ground and make a bee line for his quarters At first the Russians were too astonished at this piece of cheek to take any steps to put an end to it, but as it was repeated grew more numerous, till at last per- feet mob of them used to wait for Gra- hams appearance and then let fly But he walked away, with his back to them, evening after evening, as cool as a eu- sumber, and was never touched, Again and again We remonstrated with him. told him he had no business to make a cock-shy of himself; but nothing we could say altered his resolution. He'd be hung, he said, before he'd take the trouble to crawl quarter of a mile out of his way to avoid the Russian fire let them shoot and be damned to them
 And you" we asked, interrupting the narrator, how used you to go to your tent?"
 "Oh," he went on modestly, with a gleam of humor in his eyes,'I crawled along the trench in the mud and slush till l was we'll out of gunshot. I sup pose my disposition was calculating and ambitious. I did not see what could be taken by getting a bullet in the back for no reason
 And Gordon?" - again we inter- rupted.
 That's the curious part of it." was the reply. ''One evening Charley Cor don would link arms with Graham and walk away as if a hailstorm of bullets had mo power to hurt him, and the very next evening he would crawl along the trench after me as if he would like to hide in the slush.

The thirty-second Baron Kingsale, who died recently, had the privilege of keeping his hat on his head in the presence of. the sovereign. No other npbleman in England had this privilege, which came to his ancestor, John de Courcy, TOO years ago. John de Courcy was a faithful friend of Richard the Lien-Haarted, and King John cruelty caused his imprisonment in a dungeon. When the King of France sent a challenge from his most valiant knight to the most valiant knight of Britain John de Courcy had to be released He won the battle, and then exacted as a reward the right for himself and his descendants to remain with covered heads in the Kings company, and to salute him only with a shake of the hand.

Herr von Halle, a German economist who has made an exhaustive study Of trusts in the United States, con- cludes that they are not as black as they are painted. He says that they do not control markets nor fix prices, and that they are no more able to make what dividends they please than railroad corporations are. Even the biggest of the trusts are far from hav- ing everything their own way. In fact, some of them have had great difficulty in making any money at all. Their an- tfcipations have been disappointed, and their royer-capitalization has not brought them remarkable returns.

as industriously to find their titled client
as they did to find the poor contractor.
After going to England and proving his
claim, Sir George remained in London for
some time, occasionally visiting Somerset
shire Then he decided to come to America
and renew old friendships. He sailed from
Liverpool about year ago and landed safe
ly in New York as is known by letter
written by him to lady in England short
ly after leaving the steamer. The lette
speaks of coming to Chicago, and expressl.s
hope that his English friends may visit
America while he is still here. From the

AN IDIOTlC JOKE.
Girl students Notify Their Parents
that They Have Become Insane.

NEW YORK, March 13.-When the un-
fortunates of Bloomingdale Insane Asylum
were removed to White Plains some fifty
of the nonresident girl students of the
Teachers College were given quarters in
the west wing of the old building in One
hundred and Seventeenth street The spirit
OF mischief led to serious results.
, One of the girls tells this story: There
must have been microbes of insanity in
the old asylum, for with the coming of
March we lost.our heads and did an utter
ly idiotic thing. Wednesday might've found
seine printed blanks, used when the pa
tients were removed to White Plains TO
notify their relatives of the change. Some
one suggested that We fill these out with
our names and send them home. We filed
the blanks and mailed them the next day.
1t was not long before kilograms began TO
arrive from home. Our parents and friends
wanted us to be held, If possible, until
they could arrive before we were sent to
White Plains"
Exciting scenes have been the rule for the
last few days at the Teachers College and
the Bloomingdale Asylum, Many parents
have called, demanding demented daughters
from astonished officials of the Teachers
College. There is no danger of any one
being expelled as the girls are united in
determination to share the guilt together
as they shared the fun.
