An Old-TIme Invention That Made
100000 for the Inventor.

Yesterday was particularly disagree
able day and few hours OF the alter
noon were whiled away by party OF
gentlemen who had gathered down
town, in telling amusing stories about
ministers they have met or heard
about. one of these stories was related
OF very eminent clergyman who pos
sessed particularly penetrating voice
and who spent part of the past summer
ut well known watering place. He is
an early riser, and every morning his
calls to the hell boy and his greeting to
his neig hbors were heard through the
nails, driving away sleep. One morning
he received an sffectionate epistie from
his daughter. saying, "Please read Prov.
gala" The old gentleman, who enjoys
heartily telling the incident, turned his
we'll worn Bible and read verse that
was new to him. 1t was this: ''ie that
bIesseth his friend with loud voice,
rising early in the morning, 1t shall be
counted q curse to him.

Quite q sensation has been caused In

Lyviden. who is over 7c years of age and
a widower, his first wife having been

Diplomatic circles in Vienna have
been exalted and French political circles
have been incensed by the reported re-
ply, of the Arch Duchess Maria Dorotbea
of Austria, who was married on Thurs
day to the Duke OF Orleans, pretender to
the French throne, made TO 20 ladies OF
the French leglrimist arisiocracy, who
attended the wedding and presented the
brid, with a magnificent crown OF dIa-
monds. In returning thanks for this
gift, the arch-duchess said in French: 81
hope this crown will one day be placed
upon the head of my dear Philip. IL

to second my husband and do my whole
duty"
Truth, this week publishes the details
of another Of those scandals which
threaten to destroy the tradition that the
British officer Is gentleman. 1t appears
that Just before the goth, Husssrs went to
Indis,a newly joined subaltern was taken
by his Sreyh officers to the riding school
and put on a bareback horse. The snimal
was made TO gallop and the subaltern
was whipped until he fell, injured his
knee and became insensible, after which
he was on the sick list for weeks. The
object of this treatment, 1t is stated, was
to drive the subalterp out OF the regi.
ment. When the latter reached India, 1t
is further said, these practices were kept
up, the subaltern was made to dress In
the clothing of his native servant, to
salasm to this servant, to jump into bon
fires.with his pyjamas on, etc., ell In
order to disgrace the young officer in the
eyes of the natives.
Truth demands that bis tormenters
be tried by court martial, but adds that
it does not expect Lord Wolseley (the
comman der-in. chief to maintain the
honor of the Queens uniform.
