HENRY CLAY WAS RATIFIED.

But He Remembered q Quotation That
Did just as Well as the Missing Words.
In the early twenties of this century
Mr.. Clay was appointed by the legisla-
ture of Kentucky a commissioner to
Virginia to ask Of that state that COM
mission be appointed to make definite
line Of demarcation between the two
states. Upon his arrival in Richmond he
was received with great courtesy by it's
most distinguished citizens. He said
that his profession, politics and affairs
of government had occupied his time so
exclusively that he was aware Of know
ing little of polite literature or the IA
vorite publications of the day. This
prompted him to ask an old friend
whom he knew to be literary man to
select some lines to introduce when ad-
dressing the legislature as quotation
expressive of his feelings to the state of
Virginia as his birthplace. His friend
suggested stanza from Scott's clay
Of the Last Minstrel" which he high
~ approved and memorized.
The day appointed for his address
found the galleries, halls and every
available space crowded with eager, ex-
pectant auditors, and many beautiful
women in bright attire gave brilliancy
to the scene. He held the attention of
his audience with entire success until
he came to the part where he meant to
introduce the quotation. Then his men,
DRY failed him. The shock was appalling
for moment. He stood rigid and pale
before thousand watchful eyes, in his
mind only blank, before him turbu-
lent sea of upturned faces. With char
acteristic gesture he threw up his hands
to his forehead, and in his most sono-
rous tones he recited the following
words:
Breathes there the man with soul SO dead
Who never to himself hath said,
This Is my own, my native land9
concluding his speech amid deafening
applause.
Every one present had supposed that
he was overcome by emotion, and none
but the friend who had selected the quo
tation for him perceived the cause Of
his momentary panic. -Louisville Cou-
rier-Journal.

Ask any physician his opinion of this

We take great pleasurein recommending the
Braddock Pure Rye to all seeking or desiring
to obtain an absolutely pure rye whiskey as
beverage or for medicinal uses Ask your
dealer for it; don't be induced to take some
thing else. If he does not keep it, order di-
rectly from us.
A prominent physician of Macon, Ca,
writing us few weeks ago, says:
In point of purity, flavor. strength and
delicate tone, have never seen your Brad
dock Pure Rye equaled and shall take great
pleasure in recommending it to my sick"
To those who are so unfortunate as to be
sufferers from indigestion, dyspepsia, or any
pulmonary trouble, we beg to recommend
our own Braddock Pure Barley Malt, dis
titled from Canadian Barley Malt and noun.

DIDN'T KNOW THE ROPES.
An English Editors Experience With an
Adirondack Railroad Train.

Adirondack Railroad Train.
When Mr.. Gust, editor of William
Waldorf Astor's Pail Mall Gazette, was
in New York at the time Of the Val
kyrie-Defender finish, foul and fizzle, he
went up to the Adirondacks for some
fishing and shooting. Mr.. Gust travelled
with good deal Of luggage, and the
backwoodsmen at Childwold, where he
left DR.. Webb's railroad, were inclined
to grin at the sight ct man going into
the woods with so many gripsacks and
bundles. But the Englishman was not
disturbed. He had good time and got
some good game. When he got ready to
come out Of the woods, he went back to
Childwold with all his boxes, bags and
portmanteaus. He intended to take the
day train for New York, which was due
at Childwold about 10 o'clock. When
the train pulled into the station, Mr..
Gust stood on the platform with his lug
gage piled up around him. Conductor
Clarke saw him there, but when Mr..
Gust made no motion to board the train
Clarke gave the signal to Pat Gum
mings, the engineer, to go ahead, and
Pat did, leaving Mr.. Gust standing on
the platform.
Now it happened that Mr.. Gust was
the guest Of DR.. Seward Webb, who
owns the Adirondack railroad. When
the train pulled out and left him, he
told the station agent who he was and
then followed some lively telegraphing.
When the train got to Horseshoe Pond,
Conductor Clarke got orders from head
quarters to uncouple his engine and go
back to Childwold for Mr.. Gust. The
run back up the road was made in lively
time. Mr.. Gust and his boxes were put
into the cab, and the engine raced back
to Horseshoe Pond, where the surprised
passengers were wondering what on
earth had happened. Mr.. Gust wasn't at
all put out. 1t was new experience for
him, and he rather enjoyed it.
II was rightly left," he said to Con-
ductor Clarke. "It was quite right. I
was there with my luggage, you know,
but when the train came in I saw no
porter or guard, and there was no one to
put me aboard. I've not been here be-
fore, you know, and I'm not familiar
with your id American methods of
railroading. I was rightly left, rightly
left. New York Sun.

Since succeeding the above-named firm,
whose entire stock, fixtures and good will we
have purchased, we have remodeled the ceIe-
brated Braddock Distillery in all its APP
purtenances, until it now stands without
rival as one of the most complete plants in
the United States for the manufacture of a
perfectly pure all-rye Whiskey for medicinal
or other purposes, free from fusel or other
poisonous oils so frequently found in less
reliable goods.
We have testimonials from leading phys
icians IN all parts of the country commencing
the Braddock for its medicinal properties
Among the latest is one from Professor
J. H. Mallet. the distinguished chemist of
the University of Virginia, who, at our re-
quest, made very careful analysis of it, and
writes as follows:
THE sample of Braddock sent me upon
analysis contains no sulphates nor heavy
metals such as copper, lead or zinc, and APP

tain spring water. The medicinal properties
OF this whiskey are wonderful.
In this connection wellknown historical
writer who has been using our Barley Malt,
writes as follows
'The Malt Whiskey l have used for my
own pulmonary troubles and an indigestion
that seems to be sympathetic. Great relief,
more regular sleep and healthier digestion
are the results. My cough is so per cent
better and my rest at night is unbroken by
unpleasant efforts to expectorate Never,
while life lasts, will l cease to remember
its magical effect. No sick room should be
without it.'

our goods will please you. Together with
our celebrated Braddock we carry in stock
all kinds of foreign and domestic Wines,
Brandies, Gins, Runs, etc. In fact, every
thing pertaining to we'll stocked family

THE GOLDEN AGE OF FLORENCE.
Extension Lecture oil
Giotto and His Times.

GiOttO and His Times.
The second lecture of the university eX-
tension course was delivered yesterday af-
ternoon at MetZerotts Hall by Rev. w.
Hudson Shaw of Ballot College, oxford
The theme was "Giotto and the Golden
Age of Florence There was a distinguish
ed gathering of auditors, among them be-
ing Mrs. Cleveland. Mr.. Shaw spoke in
the gown of his university, and as far as
his audience could keep up with mis- rapid
utterance and imperfect familiarity with
the English language, as spoken in Amer
lea, was thoroughly enjoyed. He dWelt
with enthusiastic appreciation on the
period of which Giotto was an exponent in
art and architecture, picturing to his hear
ers the splendid achievements of the Flor
entines during the Renaissance. The match
less greatness of Dante. Machieyelli. Mich
eel Angelo and Savonarola and the i'm
press OF Lorenzo de Medici on the times in
which they lived afforded more than one
eloquent passage in the lecture. The biog-
raphy of Giotto was pleasingly drawn with
excellent stereoptcon pictures, illustra TIM
his work and the scenes where he spent
mis- busy and useful life.
Three large and exceptionally beautiful
Florentine tapestries were suspended across
the rear of the stage during the first part
of the lecture. AT the close of the lecture
Mr.. Shaw gave a list of works for reading
and reference in which the student of Flor.
entine literature and art may find great
help.
The next lecture in the course will be
given Tuesday afternoon, and the subject
will be 'Savonarola."
