William A. Eddy, the kite photogra-
pher, is much elated over the success
OF his most recent experiment. He
obtained seventeen practically perfect
negatives Of the great sound money
parade in New York in the short time
Of seven hours. The cameras were
elevated to a height Of 1900 feet by
lights Of six kites harnessed together
and the shutters worked perfectly by
electricity. The space covered is so
large in the picture that Mr.. Eddy
claims he has conclusively proved the
advantage Of kite photography in max
Ing pictures Of the movements Of
armies in warfare.

No less person than Julian Ralph,
ordinarily man Of strict common
sense, argues by special cable that the
reason why the Duke and Duchess of
Marlborough will undertake trip to
this country in order that their child
maybe born here, as because they wish
tAe child (whom Mr.. Ralph propheti-
cally refers to as "a member Of the
British peerage') to be safe from any
chance Of its being declared an alien,
and thus barred from lnheriting Ameri-
can land. This is sheer midsummer
madness-of whatever sex the child
may be, II will be English, no matter
where 1t is born, and should Mr..
Ralph's prophecy be correct, and the
child is boy, 1t will be hard to argue
that the Marquis of Blandford-which
will be his title-is anything else than
an alien in this country, no matter If
he be born in the capitol at Washing
ton.

Bhe EnterprisIng SChoOlbOy Who Slept
in the COrnatiOn Chair.
1t is long walk from the dining
room of the Westminster school to the
coronation chair, which stands behind
the old stone screen just back Of the
altar in the abbey, but there is an in
teresting connection between the two,
says st. Nicholas. This chair, as is
we'll known, is a rude, heavy oak
chair, much worn by time. 1t con-
tains the "Stone of Scone" and was
made the order of Edward !. in 1897
and every English sovereign since then
has sat in it to be crowned. A stout
railing in front of the chair restraints
the crowd Of visitors from coming near,
but If they were allowed to examine
it as closely as l was fortunate enough
to do they would find cut boldly into
the solid oak seat in such sprawlint
letters as the schoolboy's knife makes
upon his desk: "P. Abbott slept in this
chair Jan. 4, 1901" P. Abbott, it seems,
was a Westminster schoolboy and a
tradition, which there is every reason
to believe is true, tells that he made
wager with schoolmate that he dare
stay in the abbey all night alone. In
order to win his wager he hid in some
corner of the old building, until the
doors were locked for the night and
thus was left alone there. Fearing,
however, that when morning came the
boy with whom he had made the bet
would disbelieve his statement that
he had won it he determined to have
some proof of the fact, and so spent
the hours Of the early morning in carv-
ing on the coronation chair the SEN
tence which even now, nearly a CEN
fury after, bears witness for him. II
is disappointing that the tradition does
not record just what form and amount
of punishment was visited upon the Lad
for his escapade and that history doe
not tell us of his later years. I won
der whether the courage and grit which
this deed manifested foretold an ener'
getic, successful life or was dissipatet
in mere hrayado.

A Bright Boy.

Robbie Murden, years old, Of Ko-
komo, Ind, has built toy train, which
operates on circular track covering
an acre of ground. The engine, in
appearance and form, conforms to the
modern railway locomotive, with whis-
tie, bell and every necessary attach
ment. The train is propelled by the
little boy, who sits in the cab, with
his feet on pedals similar to those used
in propelling bicycles. The small
amount Of power required to operate
the train is surprising, the little fell
low carrying four passengers around
the track with ease. Robbie is earning
good salary in the passenger traffic
charging a penny trip. The depot
is provided with ticket office, waiting
room and all modern conveniences.--

A Jacksonville broker, while travel
ing in the Alabama mountains, was
invited by friend, local Judge, to
attend the trial OF O Cracker" FOR
shooting darky, and, the prisoner
having no money to hire lawyer, the
judge appointed the broker to defend
him, alleging that II the broker was
not a lawyer, che was an idiot be-
cause he wasn't one"--a judgment
amply supported by his conduct Of the
case, says the Argonaut. The broker
cross-examined the witnesses briefly,
sending In now and then a discomfit-
ing trajectory. When he came to make
a speech he said: Gentlemen of the
jury, l have taken great pains to show
you that my client was respectable
citizen. Ten witnesses have asserted
on oath, mind you-that he stands high
in his community" The defendant
was six feet three inches tall and the
jury smiled. "He stood high in his
community and that is sufficient. Now
for the law. We find in the thirtieth
verge OF the sixteenth chapter Of
'Chitty on Pleadings'-C gentle

the broker adjusts his glasses, holds
the book far off, elevates his chin and
reads: mo respectable white man can

looked at his neighbor, nodded, and,
without leaving their seats, they rem

Two more Vanderbilt divorces have
been passed through the New York
courts. William Nissan, a relative of
the millionaires, failed to get divorce
from his wife, but her counter suit was
granted; and Mrs. Mary Vanderbilt'a

Vanderbilt, was also granted. Other
families would lose social standing If

Members of Hunting Clubs on Whom
Big Fines Were Imposed.
Among the sports Of olden times the
hunting clubs were prominent every
where, says the Atlanta Constitution
In Camden County one of the most
famous clubhouses in this country was
built at Bear Hammock and kept I'M
der the supervision of Gen. John Floyd.
1t was there that the Camden County
Hunting Club, organized in 1882, held
its meetings, made its rules and i'm
posed its fines. The charter members
Of this club were Charles r. Floyd,
Richard Floyd, Henry Floyd, John
Floyd, Ben Hopkins, ]. H. Dilworth,
James Holzendorf, John Holzendorf,
Alexander Holzendorf, p M. Nightin-
gale, William Berrie and Henry du
Bignon. Several members joined at
terward. The club dress was scarlet
jacket and black pantaloons and a
fine Of 500 copper caps was imposed on
Alexander Holzendorf at one meeting
for not having on the regulation dress.
No member was to be absent from the
meetings unless by good excuse and
James Holzendorf was fined 1000 cop
per caps for one absence. After the
days hunt, sometimes with the luck Of
sixteen deer, an elegant dinner was
served before dispensing. The seven
teenth rule read: Game is considered
by the club to be deer, bear, hogs, cows,
bulls, wildcats and turkeys" Wild cat
tie and hogs abounded in the woods in
those days, the latter living to an old
age, which was told by the tusks, some
times eight to ten inches long.

From infancy to old age humanity
must have apr, ecIative words from
time to time. They are wholesome and
stimulating; but to depend upon praise
and fiattery for ones happiness, to sink
into gloom without them, to allow ones
cheerfulness to lapse when the outside
world seems to be unaware OF ones
important presence-this is simply de-
spicable.
