Thoroughly Chcckmatcd.

An amusing story is told of an Eng
lish officer who determined 20 enter
Chinese Tibet by stratagem. lie man
aged TO cross the frontier at night, and
so escaped the guard. On the following
day, however. while the officer was
journeying deeper into Tibet, the Tib-
etan soldiers overlook him. and in
formed him that. as the country was
unsafe because of robbers, they would
go with him in order to protect him;
TO which arrangement the traveller was
compelled TO agree. In a few hours
they came TO the river, which was
crossed by rope bridge. The Tibetans
PASSED over first, in order to show that
the bridge was safe, and then the Off
Ger got into the moose and was pulled
along by the Tibetans. Suddenly, how
ever, they ceased pulling and left the
Englisman hanging in midair above
the rushing torrent. In vain the officer
shouted to the Tibetans TO pull; they
merely smoked and nodded their heads.
Three hours passed and still the officer
hung above the torrent. At last the
Tibetans agreed TO pull him back IL
he would leave Tibet Immediately.
This, of course, he was compelled TO do,
and took his departure from the for
hidden land.-Gentleman's Magazine.

At Least the Story About 1t Is wonder

Most people have heard of the hang.
ings gardens of Babylon, the modern
roof gardens and the gardens or float
ing islands in which vegetables used 70
lie grown for the citizens of ancient
Mexico, but probably few have heard of
a garden on Board n ship, with farm
ward attachment. The splendid ship
Mowhan. now in port, and the largest
vessel which has ever been here, had
such an arrangement on board during
her trip TO Oregon. On leaving Belfast
for Portland she took on board as bal
last 1000 tons of Irish soil, which, when
lcvelsd off, made quite a stretch OF
proverbially fertile the ships company
proceeded to put 1t to good use by plant
ing a stock OF garden truck in it-cab-
bages, leeks, turnips, -adishes, lettuce,
peas, beans, etc. The seeds came up all
right and the plants fiourishcd finely,
and when the ship was in the tropics,
grew with great rapidity. As they
progressed towerd the Horn and the
weather grew colder things came 10
perfection rapidly. The crew and
ships apprentices amused themselves
by wedding and cultivating the plants
and the captain and officers took
regular walks in the garden daily and
all had green vegetables to their hearts
content.
AS they came around the Horn the
garden was replanted and by the time
they reached the equator everything
was abloom and all hands feasted on
fresh vegetables daily. The only draw
backs TO the garden were the weeds,
which grew so rapidly that they could
hardly be kept down, and the drove of
pigs, which were kept in the farmyard
attachment. and which on several oc-
casions, when the ship was bucking into
a nor'easter and rolling heavily, broke
out of the bounds and made serious
inroads on the garden. 1t is n serious
matter TO call all hands on board ship,
and is only done in emergencies, but
when the pigs got into the garden there
was more pounding on forecastle scut-
ties and handspikes and blowing of
boatswain's whistles than if the ship
had been laid aback by typhoon or all
the masts had been carried away, and
every sleeper was aroused TO help get
the pigs out of the garden.
The last pig was killed and served up
with green vegetables just before the
Mowhan entered the Columbia. On the
arrival of the Mowhan here the Irish
soil was discharged on the elevator
company's dock and piled up neatly. 50

A Great Master Thief.

So long as Hind kept to the road his
life was one long comedy. His wit
and address were inexhaustible and
fortune never found him at loss. He
would avert suspicion with the tune
of a psalm, as when, habited as a
pious shepard, he broke a travellers
head with his creolx and deprived him
of his horse. An early adventure was
to force pot-valiant parson, who had
drunk a cup too much at a wedding,
into a rarely farcical situation Hind,
having robbed two gentlemen's SER
wants of a round sum, went ambling
along the road until he encountered a
parson. 'Sir," said he, 81 am closely
pursued by robbers. You / dare swear,
will not stand by and see me plumber
ed" Before the parson could protest
he thrust pistol into his hand and
bade him fire it at the first Gomez,
while he rode off to raise the county.
Meanwhile, the rifled travellers came
up with the parson, who, straightway
mistaking them for thieves, fred with
out affect, and then riding forward
flung the pistol in the face of the near
est Thus the parson of the parish
was dragged before the magistrate,
while Hind, before his dupe could
furnish an explanation, had placed
many a mile between himself and his
adversaries.-Macm Magazine.

The Noted Catholic Prelate Involved In
Financial Difficulties.
New YORK, May 1S-A Journal spe-
cial from st. Paul states that Arch
bishop ireland, who three years ago
was worth 81, 500, 900, is almost bank
rupt. He admitted that he had been
caught on large amount of real es-
tate at the end of the boom, and that
he had bought property at figures
which no one else would pay. In no
way will the church be affected di-
rectly, but indirectly it means loss to
the church of a magnificent cathedral
or a well endowed schsol, or both. 1t
has been Ireland's life dream to be
able to erect with his own funds and
present to the church a cathedral equal
to, if not greater, than any in the
United States. Up to the time of the
panic of 1898 everything appeared IA
vorable to the realization of his dream
Since then his hopes have received a
severe shock with the impairment of
his fortunes, yet if there is anything
to be saved of the estate it will be
