the most widely quoted trade publica-

fame simply by printing an occasional
editorial paragraph criticising in tech
nical fashion the habiliments Of royal
personages as they appear at public
functions, etc Its latest utterance Of
this sort is as follows: I'VE think it
was a pity his royal highness the Duke
of York on his visit to Ireland decided
to have breast pocket in his coat, as
it is apt to give the left forepart rath-
er crowded. oyerdone appearance, and
as he has not yet attained to the proper
tions Of his father we do not think the
forepart was wide enough to allow OF
this, and though it has been arranged
as judiciously as could be yet the end
of the pocket and the top button are
too near together to be in keeping with
good taste Undoubtedly his royal high.

their lives and so their marriage was
more matter of fact than romantic.
Both are still almost in the boy and girl
stage, as far as age is concerned, and II
is said that the grand duke began ms
married life by trt Iting his wife more
as a male boon companion than as a
delicately reared and exceptionally
naughty princess, with the imperial
blood of Russia as we'll as the royal
blood of England coursing through her
veins. He invented ghost for her eS-
pecial benefit at Schloss Heiligenberg
and nearly frightened her out OF her
wits at a time when she was entitled TO
his very deepest consideration. On an
other occasion he placed a nest Of mice
in her embroidery basket, and he IN
dulged in conspicuous, although, as IL
proved, entirely harmless. tiirtatlons
with the ladies Of the court. Finally at
one particular festiyity the grand duke
suddenly ordered all the lights 70 be
turned out and then he and couple OF
young noblemen who are his closest
friends kissed every woman that they
could come across in the great chamber
1t is even whispered that the grand
duchess herself was kissed in the dark,
and she insists that it was not by her
husband. or she would have recognized
the perfume he is in the habit Of wear
ing Oh his mustache. The result was

with his wife. The brother Of the grand
duchess, Prince Alfred of Coburg. seems
to be Just as lively young man as his
brother-in-law He point blank refuses
to marry until, as he explains it, he has
"enjoyed himself bit, " and ut every
opportunity he paints the capital Of his
fathers little duchy as brilliant red
as he can possibly manage. As he is an
only son it would be rather a dreadful
thing if be contracted one Of those mes

young royalties of the present day, and

however, has been done by Mr. BOndu-

There is no doubt whatever that to-
bacco can be profitably grown in all the
Australian colonies The product may
never rival Vuelta Abajo, not even
equal that Of our New England states,
but the fact that the governments have
decided to push the enterprise for all
that it is worth means that tobacco in
large quantities will eventually be pro-
duced and placed on the markets Of Eu-
rope. The latest reports from Victoria
place the new crop at $50 tons, but the
average annual yield has been double
that for some years past. The great
drought that afflicted Australasia in
the latter part of 1896 accounts for the

these 250 tons will be shipped abroad is
not stated, but fair quantity is des-

once more on the borders of the living

have the name of Toplady recalled to
Us, for, although everybody knows his
famous hymn, the man himself is all
but forgotten. Yet Toplady was nota-
BILE character in the theological circles
of his time Toplady was the son OF a
major in the army and was born in

Bate, the rector of st. Paul's, Deptford.
Like Charles Wesley, be was a pupil at
Westminster school, from which he
passed in due time to Trinity college,
Dublin, his mother having removed to
Ireland. According to Toplady's own
account his conversion was brought
about when he was only 10 by hearing
a workingman preacher named Morris
in a barn at place called Codymain.
He died of consumption in 1878.
Toplady, besides being a labOrious
student, had early employed himself in
the diversion Of yersemaking. Indeed,
he printed a little volume in Dublin in
1859, when he was only 49,. Later on,
while at Broad Hembury, be issued a
collection of no fewer than 4l9 " Psalms
and Hymns For Public and Private
Worship" a considerable number OF
which were from his own pen. There
are something like 1873 hymns attrib-
uted to Toplady, but only very few
of these have attained TO anything like
popularity. Indeed, if we except " Rock
of Ages, -" Your Harps, Ye Trembling
Saints" and perhaps object of My
First Desire, we shall be safe in say
ing that Toplady's hymns have quite
passed into oblivion. or at least are re-

matters.
Curiously enough this favorite hymn
was written by Toplady for Il contro-
versial purpose, and it was the Wesleys
against whose doctrine the author de
sired to protest.

Duke and Duchess Of Coburg did not

but nobody seemed to know or have any
idea what the quarrel was about All
sorts of stories were soon circulated.

the part Of the grand duke of a hand
