read holding her hand, which, in the fervor
of recitation, he often pressed. The ship
put in at Copenhagen, and the Princess of
Wales and the Empress of Russia, then on a
visitto her old home, came On board. There
was luncheon, and after luncheon Tcnnyson
was asked TO read, and did, sitting between
the Empress on one side and the English
girl on the other. When it was over and
they had gone up on deck he asked the girl
whether she thought the Empress liked it.
We'll answered she, her majesty must

do you meant? Il mean that don't think

P. Jarvis, of Erporia, land while this is

ern Of the town. He was bent on getting
a quantity of booze in his system, having
already nade a good beginning, and de-

refused, saying that he could give no one
whisky without the permission of the
proprietor, who, by the way, was some

anecdote-only different" said the an
cient New England member of the club
this n orning. lit happened in Providence,
R. l.. forty years ago, when the city con-
tanned but one millionaire, who was an old
Scotchnan named Alexander Duncan.
One day Mr.. Duncan, in leaving his office,
dropped large roll OF banknotes In the
street. They escaped his eye, but not that
of the sn all boy who is around everywhere,
and who upon the Lillsim mctliately.
The roll contained $500. When Mr.. Dun
can received it he eagerly counted the
money. and, finding 1t correct, he turned
to the boy and said: L thank ye, my little
man Then, noticing the look of dsnay in
the poor lads countenance he felt in his
trousers pocket and fished out coin, which
he handed to the finder of his wealth And
the coin represented-what do you th:nk?"
''Five dollars?"
"a dollar"
"a half dollar"
"a quarter OF a dollar"

coin that We used to call a ninepence in New

Poor MOtherless Child.

Poor MOtherless Child.
Here is tragic as wen as pathetic

not only in New York. but in other great
cities.
Henry Bauer. eight years old, living in
Front street, was found dead in bed on
Wednesday night by his father, who came
home from work at O'Clock
The lads death was pathetic. His
mother died four months ago and the father
was not willing to send his children to any
Institution. Henry and his two sisters,
both younger than himself. kept house as
best they could.
They were lonely without their mother
and little Henry, who assumed charge of
the little girls, worried and pined over
his hard lot There was no escaping it,
however, and every day he gave them their
dinner, kept them as tidy as possible, and
wondered if he should ever have a good
time again
Wednesday afternoon he told Mrs. Wei
gand, neighbor who had shown a fond
ness for him that his head ached badly
Il guess m going to be sick, Mrs. Wei
gand,- said he, land mamma isn't here
to take care of me. Who'll take care Of
of them?" he asked, his eyes filling with
tears and his face growing paler.
Mrs. Weigand told him to lie down and
rest and his little sisters would be taken
care of all right.

He crawled into bed with his clothes
on and went to sleep, and when he woke
up it was with his mother" when his
father called his name at So o'clock
there was no response.
"Henry's asleep, papa" said the young
est child.
The father lighted the gas and went to
the bedside of the motionless boy One
look at the pale face showed him that little
Henry's complainings had been well
founded. Death is supposed to have been
due to some brain troub!e.-New York
