A Trick OF the Camera.

The Catholics of Hastings and St.
Leonards are going toeelebrate the Au-
gustine thirteenth century by paying a
visit to the ruined chapel of ST. Mary
in Hastings castle. In former days this
chapel was place of considerable i'm
portance, being served by a, dean and
~ prebendafies. At the reforma tion it
met the fate of so many similar institu-
tions, and was given by Henry VIII. to
one of his favorites. 1t is now in the
possession of Lord Chichester, whose
family have done much to preserve the
tottering walls which crown the old
Cinuue Port Considerable curiosity
has been aroused in local Catholic cir
cles by the discovery that in most, if not
all, of the photographs of the ancient
chapel trick of light discNoses the
figure of woman in flowing garment
and veil, standing in an tttitude of de-
votion before what appears to be a
statue of the Madonna and child. A
closer inspection shows the group to be
nothing more than a broken buttress
and part of door, but the illusion at
first sight is distinctly remarkable, and
in Italy and France would probably be
regarded as miracle-Westmins

The Last Loop Excursion

OF the season will be run by the Gulf
Road Sunday, Sept 10th. The same
cheap rates as have been made for for
mer excursions of this character will pre-
vail and the train service will be con.
venient as usual. Those who have failed
to take this trip heretofore should not on
any account miss this last opportunity.
This is generally conceded to be the
grandest one day trip in the world, and
pictures or word descriptions fail utterly
TO adequately give an idea of its grand
eur. The Gulf Road has issued a beau
tiful book descriptive of this marvellous
road and splendidly illustrated. called
"a Day in the Canons," copy of which
may be had free upon application to any
agent OF the Gulf. If you have not seen
the bills announcing the rates and train
arrangements for this occasion, please
ask the nearest Gulf agent about it.

Death of a Cat Annuitant,

. AS well as losing Sultan, Paris has
Just lost her famous cat. His name was
Bis, and he enjoyed an income of 10000
francs His mistress. Nine. Lelievre,
who lived in the Rue Quatre Fills, on her
deathbed drew up will in Bis favor,
and died happy. By French law she
could not leave the money directly to
Bis, SO she hit upon the plan of leaving
10000 francs to the schools of her dis
trict on the condition that her grave
should be kept green, and that Bis be
allowed to trim his whisl5ers in peace
and comfort as long as he lived. Natur-
ally the bequest was not refused Bis
was placed in charge of Z concierge in
the Rue du Platre, between whom and
the school managers a contract was
drawn up in due form to the effect that
the concierge was to receiyc IS fraucs
every three months. in return for which
she was to take good care T.. rs and guy
him meat and milk daily. But now Bis
is dead. and the schools viii get the

THE BIG THINGS.
A Claim That Women Have Never
Done Them.

Done
Hundreds of college-bred women have
been and are capable and efficiently en-
gagged in teaching, and a few have
gained a certain distinction as presi-
dents and professors in colleges for
women, but no great and original edu-
Gator has come from among them. Oc-
casionally n determined young gradu-
ate gets ioothold in newspaper office,
and usually keeps it. with credit to her
self and her higher education, yet the
few women editors of eminence have
not been college bred, and there is moth
ing to be gained b. coEceaiing the fact
that the college women who have under
taken Journalism seem, az get. to have
had no influence il sweetenMg the
flood of sensational, and nasty print for
which the newspaper women of the
country must bear their share of dis
credit with the newspaper men.
The number of college women who
have taken up medicine is considerable
some of them, no doubt, from real
love of science and some for love of Il
career While their work has been able
and their success undoubted, it is just
to say that they have not contributed
originally to medical science. There are
a few women collegians in law, in liter
ature, in the pulpit and in ether pro-
fessions, and their helpfulness and en-
thusiasm have been especially notice
able in educational and philanthropic
works In all these fields of usefulness
the work of college women, taken by
and large" has been good. honest, com
petent work, about like that of the
average industrious man; but it has
been derivative, not creative; compile
mental, not brilliant; offering little op-
portunity for sex celebration on the
part of those enthusiasts who believe
that women have needed only a diploma
and a ballot to be brilliantly equipped
for conquering all the world that men
have left unconquered-Scribner's.

LONG LIFE IN NORWAY.
Another View of a Question Much
Disputed Nowadays.

DlbputeO NO"nOuyb.
Some figures have appeared recently
based upon the returns to American in
surance companies from their branches
in Europe which show that in Norway
the average length Of life is greater
than in any other country in the world,
and this fact is ascribed to the cool
ness and uniformity of the temperature
in that country. 1t has long been con-
ceded that the proportionate number of
old men is greater in Norway than
in other countries of which detailed rec
ords are kept.
In table which appeared few years
ego it was shown that of 1000 persons
born, the number who lived beyond the
age of so was as follows in the coun-
tries named: Hungary, A; Italy. 65;
Spain and Switzerland, co; Germany,
70; England, 90; Belgium, 101; Sweden,
139, and Norway, 161. Accepting as cor
rect this table, it would appear that the
duration of human life in the two Scan
dinavian countries, Norway and Swe-
den, is certainly greater than it is else
where, and denial of the truth of the
contention set up in the insurance fig
ures would be difficult But an exam
nation into some of the facts of the
case discloses some conditions which
impair the accuracy of these figures
There is, in the first place, very little
immigration into either Norway or
Sweden, and very considerable immi-
grafton from these two countries. The
class of older inhabitants, and indeed
all those who have passed the age of
50, does not furnish many emigrants,
and on this account the number of oc-
togenarians is unduly large in these
countries. Again. Norway is conspicu-
ously pastora: as regards the pursuits
of its inhabitants. and life on the farm
is certainly concuclve to longevity
decidedly more so than in large cities
Norway is peculiar among the coun-
tries of Europe in having few cities,
either large or small. Christiania
claims a population of $50 600 and Ber-
gen a population of $4,000, but in a
country the total population of which
is nearly 100000 urban population is
certainly inconsiderable. Moreover. the
longevity of a people is not to be taken
arbitrarily from the number of persons
living beyond a given number of years,
but rather from the genera, duration
Of life, which is not longer in Norway
than in other countries of Europe, and
is very little, if any, longer than the du-
ration of life in New England. outside
of the big cities and manufacturing
towns.
According to the established percent
ages of the life insurance companies. of
1,400 persons in good health at the age
of 21. 1900 live to be 80. and it is com
puted that person of 70 in good health
has three chances in eight to be so. and
person of so in good health has one
chance in seventeen to be 90. What
chance person of 90 has to reach 100
the insurance tables do not state.-N. Y.
