The See of Durham.

Al tho time OF tho Norman conquest the
see Of Durham was one Hi the richest IN
all England. It's territorial possessions
had been increased by successive boncfao
tors until the riches Of tho succession a.
the apostolic fathers CCn.rasted singularly
with the poverty and iowlinoss of hint
who, when on earth, had not whore 10 lay

which was 50 cheoriulIy endured by the
great apostle 60 the gentiles, IN order that
he might prearB the gospel Of the Nazai

Lest any miSconception should arise con
corning the term "palatine," 1t may be
proper here 60 remark that 10 originated
In the palace Of the byzantine emperors
and signified, in its simple and restricted
sense. nothing more than an inhabitant of
the palace. Subsequently, the term came
to denote an officer of the household, "A
governor OF a province witch extensive del
egated powers Finally, when those po-
tentates grew sufficiently powerful to
make themselves feared by their masters,
a ''palatine" came TO mean n feudal prince
who owed little more than a nominal sub
lection 10 the paramount sovereign. The
testimonies of a long line of great author
titles, beginning with Camden and ending
with Surtecs, has demonstrated the fact
that the palatine franchise Of Durham be-
gan after the Norman conquest. From
the time of Watcher, who was appointed 10
the see of Durham previously 20 10S2, the
successive prelates of the see were half
warrior half ecclesiastic. For 400 years.
within tho limits OF the county palatinate,
the bishops of Durham, owned no earthly
superior and exercised every right which
belonged to a distinct and independent

A common tory was 70 the effect that
q Muramasa sword was once ON a time
pledged 60 a pawnbroker. The fellow
thought this "a fine opportunity to parade
himself as gentleman, and, according
", on festival day he wore the sword.
Quarreling with some IDLE fellows, he
eSsayed 10 use the weapon, but his IN
familiarity with it excited the derision
Of the bystanders, who numerically
ridiculed his bungling manner. But the
merriment Of these individuals was
short lived The sword itself took the
matter in hand. as though the taunts
impugned its own skill. and soon laid
low all its traducers Then il turned
against the unfortunate pawnbroker and
killed him
Another story is the basis of popular
japanese drama, and tells of the adven-
lures Of a samura; with a strange sword
which he had borrowed from a pawn
broker. He lightly hit man with the
blade without apparently wounding
him in the least. Some time after the
man suddenly dropped dead, and it was
found that the sword had inflicted q
mortal wound even when il had scarcely
drawn blood. Upon examination this
was found 10 be a Muramasa, which,
though coming from the dishonor OF q
pawnshop and carried in the hands of
an incompetent, had thus made mani
fest its power. Lyman Horace Weeks
