Mr.. Joseph Upton was bachelor of
exceedingly methodical habits. Prim
and neat in appearance. he never affect
ed any new fashions, but always looked
exactly the same day after day-pepper
and salt colored trousers. with black
cutaway coat. No one had ever seen
him in different attire. Not even when
he was supposed to be indulging in n
holiday did he condescend to more
comfortable looking costume. he was
SO much the creature of routine that it
would have been no comfort to have
been in any other garments than those
he usually wore He was short, his fig
ure had slight idea of developing into
rotundity, but evidently it was only a
half formed idea, for he remained COM
paratively thin. He had mild, ordina-
~ looking face, which he tried to make
severe by cultivating his rather thick
eyebrows well over his eyes, but if you
took the trouble to look underneath them
and behind the gold trimmed glasses
you would have discovered that his eyes
were of dull grayish hue, the reverse
of what he desired to make them ap-
pear. Still the little irritable, narrow
lines about the mouth and chin prevent
ed his face from wearing that benevo-
lent look which would have made chill

Gen. &. e. Lee.

Capt. Jacob Roderick, one OF the

dent which well illustrates one of the
characteristics of the greatest soldier
of modern times. During the war,
Mr.. r. was quite young and was one
of Gen. Lees couriers. While the
Confederate army was in Pennsyl-
vania he was carrying dispatch to
Gen. Lee. He was informed that
the Gen. had his headquarters in a
large field of timothy. The courier
rode around two sides Of the field,
bat seeing no entrance hastily threw
several rails of the fence, jumped his
horse over il and was Looping through
the timothy when he saw in another
part of the field the tall form of Gen.
Lee, who motioned to him TO go back
and go around in certain direction.
He found an entrance through a
barn yard, and when he reached the
General, he mildly reproved him,
saying, q never destroy anything un-
necessarily. If we cannot use this
grass, the people living here will.

rbe wr,tInr Of .eBen-nur.v

General Lew Wallace In his lecture
ON 'tBen-Hur" recounts some facts in
connection with the writing of that fa-
nous novel. At the time he wrote the
story General Wallace had never visited
the Holy Land, and under the circun-
stances his accurate pictures are little
short of marvellous. All the information
he had was obtained from personal ac-
quaintances who had travelled through
Palestine and from reading the writings
of other authors. a large map was be-
fore him as he wrote, and he constantly
had to draw on his Imagination, but in
this respect he was always fortunate
and never made blunder in his descrip-
tions. In fact, the Palestine of BEN
Hur'' is generally regarded as authori-
tative, and General Wallace relates with
keen relish how younger author wrote
a story, the scene Of which was laid in
the Holy Land, and stole all his descrip-
tions bodily from "Ben-Hur. - General
Wallace says that his hardest task in
writing the book was to find hero.
His favorite passage in the story is the
scene of Ben-Hur's house, where he de
scribes the miracles of Christ. General
Wallace believes that more ert is dis
played in this passage than even in the
famous chariot race, which is generally
regarded as the strongest passage Of the

Where three bent yew trees cover.

The pale blue yiolets that love the chalk
Cling light round the liehen stone,
And starlings chatter and gray owls talk
In the belfry o. nights alone.

To the church where the wild thyme hears

fact of the matter is that all signs
point to a business activity and
industrial revival unprecedented in
recent years. The country has suf-
fered from the effects of an odious
economic policy. The Mckinley

revenue to meet the pronigate ap-
preparations of the Reed Congress,
and a panic was the logical and
inevitable consequence. Industrial
paralysis, business stagnation and
