The Hocking sentinel. [volume] (Logan, Ohio) 1871-1906, 1897-03-18

Americans are sometimes accused Of
having too great fondness for hot
bread, and are told that stale bread is
wholesome. If that is true the Assy-
rian loaf that was recently discovered
by French explorer ought to be a
particularly desirable bit of nourish-
ment.
It Is supposed to Lave been baked
somewhere about the year $50 B. c.,
and was in excellent condition when
found. He who should be fortunate or
unfortunate enough to partake of that
loaf, ought not to be troubled with
Indigestion. 1t Is sufficiently stale to
suit the most rigid upholder of a care
full system of diet.
The bread Is bun-shaped, and was
found wrapped in cloth in tightly
sealed sarcophagus.
Some decidedly ancient loaves were
found few years ago at Pompeii. An
oven, well-preserved, was unearthed.
and in it were resting several charred
loaves, upon which the bakers name
was still plainly to be seen.
The bakers Of Pompeii made their
loaves round, with indentations that
permitted them to be broken into eight
parts. Similar loaves are baked in the
present day in Calabria and Sicily.

her sixteenth birthday, and halls from
Troy, n. Y. On the stage she looks the
Child she really is. Her slim, gaunt,
undevcloped figure, with its serious
face and big, piercing eyes, by no
means reveals the fires that are be-
meath.
Her early paths in the dramatic art
were not different from those of ordi-
nary beginners. Amateur theatricals,
little plays at school and similar enter
tainments served to awaken in her
desire to do something serious. Mans
fields company was in the city one day,
and she went to his hotel and told him
of her ambition. The famous actor
must have been in particularly gra-
cious mood. for he listened to her re-
citing and then offered her place in
his company.
She has advanced with marvellous
rapidity, and in his New York produc-
ton of "The Merchant of Venice" was
cast for the part of Jessica. She has
played the part before during the pres
ent season, and the dramatic critics
have taken to her most kindly.
Mr. Mansfield personally coaches her
in her work, and he certainly would not
make the prediction he did unless the
prospects held out rosy promises for its
fulflment.

SIXTY YEARS A QUEEN.
Celebrations in England Soon to Bexin
and Others to Follow TSem

i
and Others to Follow Them.
Queen Victoria, born in 1919, is by no
means the oldest of living monarchs or
potentates. The King of Denmark,
Christian IX., is one year older; there
are three German sovereigns older than
Queen Victoria, and Pope Leo XIII.
was 3 years old when Queen Victoria
was born. But in respect Of the dura-
ton Of her reign, Queen Victoria is the
oldest living of sovereigns, for she as
| cended the throne of Great Britain in
1887, and on June 20 next will complete
the sixtieth year of her reign. The
| next oldest of the sovereigns of the
world Is Franz Joseph Of Austria-Hun-
gary, who ascended the throne in Wen
na in 1S4S.
Sixty years reign for one monarch Is
an unusual thing, even in England,
where revolutions have been rare and
where the present royal family is Of
great longevity. George l. reigned
twelve years; George H., thirty-three
years; George III, fifty-nine years and
three months; George ~, ten years;
William w., seven years; Edward I'LL,
reigned fifty years; Henry WILL, thirty
eight years; Mary, five years, and Eliz-
abeth, forty-four years. In honor Of
the queens sixty years reign many pat
r.Otic Englishmen are already prepar-
ing celebrations and festivities designed
to show the increase of England's in
fluence and her progress in commerce
and the mechanical arts since 1887.
Great preparations have been made for
the international electrical and engi-
neering exhibition at Newcastle-on-
Tyne. The progress and development
I'm electrical and other branches of in
dustry since 1887 will be illustrated
there. Newcastle is we'll chosen for this
purpose, because not only is it great
center Of manufacturing industry, but
1t is representative of many of those in
terests which have grown most notably
since 1887. Beginning in April, sim
liar exhibition will be held at Black
pool. This exhibition will be less repre-
sentative Of the mechanical advance
In England than of the growth of the
country in other directions. Since 1887
the increase in the population of Eng
land, including Wales, has been from
15,OOO,OOO to 29,OOO,OOO The popula-
ton of Scotland in 1887 was 100000,
is now 1000, 900; but Ireland. which had
at that time population of 100000,
has now only 100000.
From 1887 to 1897 the population OF
London has increased from 100000 to
100000. Liverpool has grown from
100000 to 100000; Manchester from
100000 to 405,O00, and Newcastle,
where the first of the celebrations is to-
be held, from $1,000 to 10000. The
commerce of England has increased in
even greater ratio and the material
wealth of England has more than dou-
bled during the sixty years. But the
value Of land, particularly agricultural
land, outside Of the great cities, is less
now than it was sixty years ago, and
the falling off is so great as to Offset
even the increase in some of the large.

A couNTERFElTER CAUGHT.
The Police Of Syracuse Make an Inn
Dortant Ca nture.

portant Capture.
On Monday. the 18th, Harold Marqui-
see, of Utica, n. Y. was arrested in Syra-
cuse. \. V. on warrant sworn out by
the DR.. Williams Medicine Co.. charging
him with forgery. On the 18th of De-
cember Marquisee visited a photo-engrav-
er iu Syracuse, saying he was the repre-
sentative of the DR.. Williams Medicine
Co.. and arranged for the making of a
full set of plates for the direction sheets,
labels, ETC., of the famous DR.. Williams
Pink F;hs for Pale People. News of
this reached the home office, and no time
was lost in arranging for his arrest when
he should return for the plates. He re-
turned on the 10Th and was accordingly
arrested and is now in jail in Syracuse
awaiting examination, which occurs on
March >.
This arrest proves to be an important
one. In addition to various plumber, such
as medical books. typewritcrs, rugs. etc,
found in Marquiscc's trunk when arrest
ed. the police also found counterfeit coin
both in the trunk and on his person: and
in search of his apartments at Utica
found a complete outfit for counterfeit
ing, consisting of crucihles, bellows. nick
el, lead, bismuth, antimony, small black
smith forge, charcoal furnace, and
several plaster-of-paris mOulds. The
United States marshals want him just as
soon as the DR.. Williams Medicine Co.
are through with him, and, no doubt, he
will be sentenced for long period.
In selecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for his counterfeiting operations. he
showed his knowledge of the proprietary
medicine business; for these pills are in
such great demand that they are easily
sold at any drug store in the United
States. His scheme was to work the
country druggists and sell his limitations
at a discount of from per cent. to ) per
cent explaining the reduced price by the
fact that he had picked them UP in small
lots and at discount from dealers who
were OverstOcked. BY working fast and
making long jumps. he would have Sc
cured many hundreds of dollars in short
time. The proprietors of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills are most fortunate to have
caught the rogue before he had fairly
started and to have thus kept these spu
riOus goods out of the market.

Field Diversions,

General Horace Porter tells the fol-
lowing anecdote in Campaigning with
Grant" in the Century: During the ten
days of battle through which we had
just passed very little relief, physical
or mental, had been obtained; but there
was one staff-officer. Colonel b,
who often came as bearer of messages
to our headquarters. who always man
aged TO console himself with novel
reading, and his popularity in this re-
spect became Il standing joke among
those who knew him. He went about
with his saddle-bags stuffed full of
thrilling romances, and was seen sew
eral times sitting on his horse under a
brisk fire, pOring over the last pages
of an absorbing volume to reach the
denouement of the plot. and evincing
a greater curiosity to find how the hero
and the heroine were going to be ex-
tricated from the entangled dilemma
into which they had been plunged by
the unsympathetic author than to learn
the result of the surrounding battle.
One of his peculiarities was that he
took it for granted that all the people
he met We're perfectly familiar with
his line of literatur and he talked
about nothing but the merits of the
latest novel. For the last week he had
been devouring Victor Hugo's Les
Miserables" 1t was an English trans
lation, for the officer had no knowledge
of French. AS he was passing house
, in rear of the angle" he saw young
lady sea ted on the porch, and. stop
ping his horse, bowed to her with all
the grace of a Chesterfield, and en-
dea vored to engage her in conversation
Before he had gone far he took occa-
sion to remark: by the way, have
you seen Lees Miserables'?" angliciz-
ing the pronunciation Her black eyes
snapped with Indignation as she tartly
replied: Don't you talk to me that
way; they're good deal better than
Grants miserables anyhow" This
was retold so often by those who heard
it that, for some time after. it's repeti.
ton seriously endangered the Colonel's
peace of mind.

A Euiure Ellen Terry.

Richard Mansfield has discovered a
girl in whose bosom burns the fires OF
dramatic genius, and he has the ga-
ciousness not only to say that she will
SONS day make great actress, but
that she NAV become to him what Ellen
Terry is to Sir Henry Irving.
This from Mr.. Mansfield means
much. He has never been noted for his
lavish commendation of the work OF
his fellow-artists, acd when he conde-
scends TO voluntarily rise and remark
shat second Ellen Terry is on the
horizon it means that the recipient of
1he compliment must indeed have more
than ordinary talent.
Alice Pierce is the name of the young
woman who has won such high praise.
She is mere slip of girl, 5.st past
