months Of each other. It was shortly
after the Queens attention was called
to the young boy under rather peculiar
circumstances.
One day while Benton was gather

make pincushions, which he sold to the
summer visitors, n young boy, nicely
dressed ana about his own age. appear
ed upon the scene and scattered with a
vigorous kick the accumulated shells.
Benton gathered up his treasures, and,
placing them again In pile, warned
the intruder that II he repeated the trick
he would give him good licking"
The kick was repeated with even
ore vigor than before and the shells
sent flying In every direction. True
to his word, the poor boy" soundly
thrnslicd the stranger. 1t was close

evenly matched, but the more fully de.

Just as the melee was over gentle.

the aggressor. and received the thrash.

questions were asked the lad as to him.

parents had brought poverty to himself
and his brothers and sisters.

to the Prince, he continued: you must

Thus 1t was that "TOm" Benton met

to school about midway between Port.

studies there he was taken into Her
