English Ignorance of Americans.

My first experience in England, says
Colonel T. w. Htgginson in the Decem-
Der Atlantic, was of course to ascer-
tain my proper position as an Ameri-
can and to know what was thought OF
us. This was easier % years ago than
now, since the English ignorance of
Americans was then even greater tn2u
today, and perhaps even more frankly
expressed. One OF the first houses
where [ spent { n evening was the. very
hosDitable home of a distinguished
scholar, then the president of the PhiIo-
logical society, and the highest author
ty on the various dialects of the Eng
lish language; but 1 was led to think
that mis- sweet and kindly wife had not
fully prot1ted by his learning. She said
to me, rs it not rather strange that
you Americans, who seem such q
friendly and cordial race, should in
variably address a newcomer as
stranger while we English, who are
thought to be cold and distant, are
more likely to say my friend'?" She
would scarcely credit it when L told her
that had hardly ever in my life been
greeted by the word she thought so
universal; and then she added, Il was
told that Americans began every SEN
tence with We'll, stranger, [ guess. -
l was compelled to plead guilty to the
national use of the first and last of
these two words, but still demurred as
to the stranger" Then she sought
for more general information, and
asked if it was really true, as she had
been told. that railway trains in
America were often stopped for the
purpose of driving cattle off the track.
explained to her that in some regions
Of the far west, where cattle abounded
and fencing material was scarce, this
might still be done; and L did not
think it necessary to say that 1 had
seen it done, in my youth. within 20
miles of Boston. But l explained to
her that we Americans, being a very
inventive race, had devised little ap-
paratus to be placed in front of the
locomotive in order to turn aside all
distractions; and 1 told her that this
excellent invention was called a cow
catcher. She heard with interest. and
then her kindly face grew anxious and
she said hesitatingly But, isn't it
rather dangerous for the boy?" 1 said
wonderingIy, What boy?" and she
reiterated, For the boy, don't you
know-the COW catcher" Her mother
ly fancy had depicted an unfortunate
youth, balanced on the new contriv-
ance, probably holding on with one
hand, and dispensing dangerous herds
by the gesture from the other

What Are Historical Nove1sP

An atmosphere can be as historical
as an occurrence, says Paul Leicester
Ford in the December Atlantic, and a
created character can transmit a
truer sense of a. generation than the
most labored biography of some actual
person. It is scarcely possible to obtain
a more vivid idea Of the 18th century
life and people than is to be found in
Fieldings TON Jones'" and in this
sense it is the best of historical fiction.
In the three volumes of the Littlepage
MSS. Cooper took as his central theme
the history of the great land grants of
New York; Satanstoe relates the mo-
tives of state which induced the grant
ing of the patents the means taken to
secure them, and finally the struggle
with the Indians for their possession;
1.-THE Chainbearer" carries the history
one point further by showing the
method of settling of these land grants,
and tells of the struggle for possession
between the owner and the sauatters;
and finally the third Of the series, "Phe
Redskins" deals with the fierce anti
rent war which broke out on the same
estates some so years lataer. 1t is ap-
parent, therefore, that these three
books are historical novels. But, as a
fact, they are not more truly historical
than the early works of Bret Harte.
and it is a safe assertion to make that
if the day ever comes when his stories
of California are no longer held to be
the classics of the west, they will still
be read as pictures of the upbiulding
of the Sierra states, or as historical
novels.

Milford Firm Going Out of the For
warding Business.

Milford, Dec. 11.-Letters are out an
nouncing that the P. B. McKeon For
warding company will discontinue
business in that line on the 1st of jan
uary This company has been for
warding freight for many of the coun-
try towns, and it's business will natu-
rally fall to the other company en-
gagged in that business here. Increased
capacity for other kinds of business
and increased business in other ca
pacities are the reasons given for dis
banding the McKeon Forwarding COM
pany. The Captain De Lamar freight
alone will be handled by McKeon.
Miss Fife Mathews of Beaver was
today appointed assistant postmaster
at Milford. The appointment was
made by the newly appointed post
master. Miss Mathews secured her
new situation by her aptitude for the
work and her brilliant career as a
saleslady.

IFrom The Herald Correspondence
Huntington, Dec. 11.-Today at about
p. M the people of this place were
startled by what seemed TO be a shock
of earthquake, which lasted several
seconds. The noise reminded one OF a
huge snows1ide or the falling of a
heavy mountain side
The wave started in the south and
seemed to die away in the east. Many
people claim that their windows and
dishes in the suburbs ratified percep-
tibly, and many are the conjectures
as to what caused the commotion.
Some think it was caused by the cav
ing in and explosion of the burning
coal mine in the south end of the
county, while others think it was an
earthquake.
The Y. NJ and Y. L. NJ. 1. a. con-
ference of the Emery stake will be
held at this place tomorrow, and a
good time is anticipated.
