A Lovers CowardIce.


All Paris is talking of the brutal be-
havior of some of the men during the
panic caused by the disastrous fire at
the Charity bazaar. They seem to have
lost all self-controi, and to have strug-
gled, and hit and bruised and knocked
down the women in order to save
themselves. On all sides we hear tales
from the friends of those who were
saved of these mems selfish and cruel
efforts to save themselves. One man,
whose name is suppressed, was present
at the bazaar with his young fiancee
When the fire broke out, she naturally
flew to him for help and protection.
He pushed her roughly aside, and leav-
ing her to her fate, saved himself.
This young girl, though bruised and
SCARED, was ultimately saved (by the
eXertions of some poor man, it is said)
In the evening, tina sn-called gentle
man., her betrothed, came to inquire
after her health, and was told by the
man servant at the door that he need
not ever trouble himself to enter that
house again. Surely mere death would
be simple in comparison to the exist
ence on this earth banded with the
name coward" for the rest of mortal
life!

"a por OF THE BEST cHAw.'
The Earliest Mention of Tea in the
Year 1918.


The Earliest Mention Of Tea in the
Year 1918.
The earliest mention of tea by an
EnglishmaO is probably that contained
in a letter from Mr.. Wickham, an
agent of the Est India company.
written from FirAndo, in Japan, on the
9th of June, 1915, to Mr.. Eaton, an
other officer of the company, resident
at Macao, asking him to send "a pot of
the best chaw," says Lippincott's. In
Mr.. Eaton's accounts of expenditures
occurs this item: Three silver por-
ringers to dring chaw in" 1t was not
until the middle of the seventeenth CEN
tury that the English began to use tea.
The first impoTtations were from Java
and the price ranged from f6 to flO
per pound. In the Mercurius Politicus
of September, 1885, appears the fol-
lowing advertisement: "That excellent
and by all physicians approved China
drink, called by the Chineans Tcha, by
other nations tay, or tea, is sold at the
Sultaness Head, a cophee-house in
Sweetings Rents, by the Royal Ex-
change, London" Pepys enters in his
diary on the 25th OF September, 1880:
II did send for a cup of tee, China
drink, of which l had never drunk be-
fore" This is proof of the novelty OF
the drink in England at that date. In
1864 it is recorded that the East India
! company presented the king with two
pounds and two ounces of thea
About this time, however, the con
sumption Of tea and coffee became
fashionable and the importations larg'
in proportion.

he is well preserved and perfectly
healthy. To show how well preserved
he really is It is only necessary to state
that the doctor practices his profession
as actively and with as much success
as might a man of half his years. His
father was surgeon in the army Of
Germany, He was killed at the age Of
SO while riding a horse attending to
his duties on battlefield. The aged
Ohioan was educated at Guestrow and
Parchini. He was a schoolmate OF
Won Moltke. He practiced medicine in
his native land until 1885, when polit-
ical troubles caused him to emigrate to
America. After spending a few years
in the East, he came West, and settled
in Ohio. The doctor has smoked regu-
larly since he was SO, but never in
dulged in tobacco before that age. He
is up to date in his knowledge OF
medicine, and looks forward to many
more years of active life.

Calling the Clock so order.

Once, while MIR. Webster was adj
dressing the senate, the senate clock
commenced EtTiIling, but instead OF
striking twice at 2 p. m, continued to
strike without cessation more than for
ty times. All eyes were turned toward
the clock, and Mr.. WetSter remained
silent until the clock hae struck about
twenty, when he thus appealed to the
chair: ''Mr. President, the clock is out
Of order! I have the hoor!"

then rest three days; more work would
break their big hearts. Although ap-
pearing to the uninitiated yeritable
monuments of innocence and dOcility,
these workers are amazingly tricky.
They don't need trade union, every
elephant being very well able to look
after his own interests. A heavy chain
is sometimes fixed TO elephants that
are turned loose to feed in the jungle
that night; this is in order that wan
derers may be traced by the trail left
by the chain in the jungle. Well, It
has been known that when an elephant
has made up his mind to bolt, he has
carefully gathered up the tell-tale
chain and carried it for miles on his
tuGkS.

NORFOLK, VA, January l6.-(Spe-
ciaI)-The steamer Huxby, from Liver
pool to Norfolk, consigned to Barber "
Co. to load, went ashore near Dam
Neck, off the Virginia coast in the heavy
fog that prevailed this morning. The
wrecking steamer William Cole Is at
work on her, and will probably get her
off early tomorrow. She is in no I'M
mediate danger. The steamer Staifo,
home port and destination unknown,
went ashore to-day two miles north or
Washwoods llfe-saving station. She
is lying easily, and at o'clock to-day
it was thought she would float tonight
at hightide.
A large steamer came almost within
hailing distance of the hotel at Virginia
Beach to-day. when the lucky lifting
of the fog enabled the captain TO rea-
lie that he was nearly ashore, and to
change his course. Six steamers nave
gone ashore on this coast within
month The fogs have been denser than
