Slightly Embarrassed Him.

A good story is told on certain
minister not a thousand miles from
here. He made call recently at a
home which had not long before been
blessed by the arrival of new baby.
He was met at the door by the lady Of
the house, and after the usual saluta-
tion. asked after the baby's health.
The lady, who was little hard Of
hearing and suffering with the grip,
did not quite understand him, and
thinking he was asking about her cold,
answered that although she usually
had one every winter, this was the
worst one she had ever had; it kept
her awake nights good deal, and at
first confined her to her bed. Then,
noticing that her visitor was getting
nervous, she said that she could tell
by his looks that he was going to have
one just like hers, and asked him to

Poetry With a Sting In 1t.

On ono occasion when William
Hamilton Hayne was visiting Sam
uel Minturn Peck at the latter's
home in Tuscaloosa the two poets
strolled into the woods and paused
to rest beneath the shadows of the
pines.
"Here are your favorite pines,
Hayne," said Peck. "Let's dream
few poems beneath them.
The languid summer day had its
effect on them, and they were soon
snoring and dreaming away.
But suddenly both awoke and
both, started down the home road at
top speed, shouting as they ran.
An army of yellow jackets had
discovered them, and, not being par
tial to poetry, had forcibly and feel
ingly resented its intrusion on their
domain.
Later, at supper, Peck asked:
did you make poem, Haynea"
NO." was the meek reply. II

The First Round Bale.

The first ''round" bale of cotton has
been on exhibition on the floor OF the
Cotton Exchange for the past few
days, and while its neat appearance is
often spoken of there seems little
praise of more substantial character.
Capt. Thomas Young, recognized
authority on cotton exporting, said
yesterday that the bale would not do
for the Transatlantic trade. The
bale shown is from the press of Col.
Mike Brown, Barnwell, and contains
356 pounds of cotton. 1t is covered
with heavy jute cloth, the top, bottom
and side being sewn with hemp cord.
But, according to Capt. Young. it
would occupy more space in ship S
hold than square compressed bale
weighing 500 pounds. Attention was
also called by several cotton men to
the fact that it was almost impossible
to get satisfactory samples from the
round bale. An end sample was not
desired, and to slit the bagging would
mean the bursting of the bale, as it
carries no hoops of any kind. 1t is
said that the round bale would occupy
more room in freight cars and would
be more troublesome to handle than
an ordinarily put up bale, for the rea-
son that hooks could not be used with
any safety upon cotton simply confn-
ed in cloth without bands.

Inen ne TOOK from lis pock1I q Copy
of Rivington's Gazette, which con-
tanned long account of his capture,
the nature of the dispatches he had
carried and the use Sir Henry was
making of the information he had
gained.
Suddenly, as the guard finished
his reading, Montagnie laughed
aloud. "What are you laughing
ats" asked the angry guard as he
left. IT don't see anything funny
in that.
But the prisoner did, and all his
bitterness toward Washington had
vanished in a moment. Now he un-
derstood it all. Washington had in
tended all the time to have him TAX
en- prisoner with those dispatches
on his person and thus to hold the
British in New York while he start
ed for Virginia.
How well he held them we know
from the fact that when Sir Henry
next heard of him he was already
beyond the Delaware, too far away
to be pursued, and it was too late to
send word or aid to CORVALLIS.
AS for Parson Montagnie, he was
not long kept prisoner, for the war
was soon ended, but for years it was
his delight to tell the story Of his
capture. II Lad read about the

OLD MAIDS i'm BERMUDA.
Marrying an Alien Means Loss of WON
ans Landed Estate.

Marrying an Alien Means Loss Of a Wona-
ans Landed Estate.
In spite Of the pre-eminence of the
spinster in New England, the pro-
portion of unmarried women is
greater in the British colony of Ber-
muda than anywhere else on this
side of the Atlantic ocean. The
Bemitropical climate of the islands,
together with their isolation, has
made of the white inhabitants of
English stock quiet, almost slug
gish, people of a simplicity nearly
Arcadian. The women especially,
many of whom have led very cir
cumscribed lives, never leaving the
islands, cultivate an old fashioned
hospitality and possess a natural
ease of manner that seems to rise
from perfect faith in other people.
Crime is very rare in Bermuda, part
ly because it is extremely difficult
for criminal to get off the islands.
Bermudan women are excellent
housekeepers and bring up large
families of children, the favorite
chicks of a flock being sent, in some
cases, to the states for education.
In matters of etiquette these focks
are much more exact than Ameri-
cans. They are comfortable, we'll
to do set of people, with here and
there a family possessing ample
means. AS in England, property,
especially real estate, remains in the
same family for long period, some
of the descendants of the original
settlers still possessing lands that
never have passed out of their fam
lies
1t is conservatism as to real estate
ownership that keeps up the supply
of spinsters No alien can acquire
a title to land in Bermuda either by
purchase or inheritance. This law
is directed mainly against the Por-
tuguese, who have flocked to the
colony and taken to growing onions.
So long as these intruders own no
land they have no vote, and the
difficulty of naturalization and the
property qualifications combine to
make a double barrier, protecting
the natives in their control of things.
But the law provides, further,
that if a woman owning land mar
ries an alien she forfeits her real es
tate and becomes incapable Of in
heriting any. They have no "squaw
men" in Bermuda. This law is not
very popular with young women,
who see their brothers and sweet
hearts paying court to American
girls with comfortable incomes.
The number of Americans who have
become residents of Bermuda is
smaller than it would be under diff
ferent land laws, but the winter
colony is large one, and the most
energetic business men of Hamilton,
the capital of the islands, are from
the States. Marriages result of Ber-
mudan men with American girls,
but in a community where so large
large proportion of all property is
land Bermudan girls are prevented
from retaliating. There are in
tances where girls renounce their
birthrights, but penniless bellies are
not universally attractive. - New
York Tribune.

for a sprained wrist is to let cold
