GLADSTONE.
What This Greatest of Statesmen Some
times Talked About

Gladstone was probably the best
talker of his time. His astonishing
yivacitv made him one of the most
lively and interesting # companions,
although sometimes his faculty for be-
ing interested in anything disappoiqt-
cd those who met at his table; for his
mind was very eager, and conferred
itself upon tile most trivial as upon
the gravest object Of human interest.
At Il breakfast at Downing street
some years ago u, lhevallier the
French economist, with n, de Law
elcye and others were invited to meet
Mr.. Gladstone and Mr.. Bright. The
conversation, by some unlucky twist,
happened to turn upon chiropody.
M. Bright is said TO have started II
by remarking that the charges Of
chiropodists were excessive. Mr..
Gladstone accordingly joined in, and
10 the utter bewilderment Of the for
eign guests the whole Of the converse
ton at that breakfast was devoted to
a vehement discussion on. the extrac-
ton Of coins and the prices charged
for the operation.
VI. Chevallier pricled up bis ears
when he first heard "corns," thinking
he was about to hear some reflection
q TO the effect Of the corn laws on ag-
riculture, but the hope vanished as
soon as it was raised; chiropody and
chiropody alone reigned supreme.
The distinguished guests left, greatly
marveling at the kind Of converse
ton to which they had been invited.
On another occasion, on the eve Of
Lord Wolesley's departure for Egypt,
Mr.. Gladstone mortified his guests,
who included Lord Wellesley, by talk
ing ebatinately about nothing but the
best binding for books.

LITERARY TRAMPs.
wsllKnOwn writers Who Were Fond Of
Travelling by Foot

Two Of the most thorough literary
tramps Of this century were probably
William and Mary Hewitt They
spent their honeymoon on the tramp
and continued to walk at suitable
seasons during tho remainder Of their
long lives, which far exceeded the ale
lotted age of man When one Mas "a
and the other so they were stillwalk-
ing in the Tyrol and even seven year;
later Mary Hewitt writes Of pleas
ant walk right into the country"
Many persons, no doubt remember
a famous passage i'm the Life of Mac
aulay," in which the historian says;
Il walked far into HerefordsAiro and
read, while walking, the last five
books of the Had, with deep interest
and many tears. l was afraid to be
seen crying by the parties Of walk
ers that met me as ! came back

hair, crying for Priam rolling on the

Eggs Judged in Popular Parlance by

He sat on a cracker box in a wins
dow in the rear of a warehouse, Al
intervals he placed a cylindrical
shaped article to his eye and glanced
through it with a practiced keen eye.
Though his face was stern and i'm
movable, common type at sea-coast
villages, there was yet something Of
anxiety in it as he sat there in the
breeze in his shirt sleeves, lie talked
necessarily to himself as he looked
through the cylinder.
"There's a wee bit of danger, but
not enough to do any harm" he muir

SURGERY ON SNAKES,
Operating on the Eyes of a Vicious and
Poisonous Cobra.

The London Sketch draEs atten-
ton to operations on snakes at Bonn
bay. Snakes in captivity, it seems,
sometimes find difficulty in getting
rid Of the skin which is shed every
year, and an Australian diamond
snake in the Bombay museum ap-
peared likely to succumb. 1t was
quite blind, and refused all food,
A European sympathizer, there
fore, pressed the native keeper into
service to hold tho snake, and himself
with pair Of sharp-pointed scissors
performed the delicate and risky OPP
Grafton Of clipping away the mem
brane which adhered to the eyes.
J. NJ. Phipson, editor Of the Jour
nal Of the Bombay Natural History
society, performed a far more danger
Gus operation a couple Of years ago.
His patient was large hamadryad, or
king cobra, the most vicious and poi
sonous Of all Indian snakes, and a
most powerful creature to boot.
Mr.. Phipson grippe1 the king cobra
round the neck, and a natlss literally
held on for his dear life further down,
and, when the reptiles struggles were
over. a third man, armed with sur
geon's scalpel, removed eight layers Of
membrane from each eve

ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY AND MURDER

Last Saturday night about 1880 o'clock a
brutal aud c~oward!y attempt was made to rob
and murder Mrs. Mary Z. Davies, an aged,
well-to-do widow, on Frederic street, who
lives hermit-lik life in n small cottage.
She heard a knocking on her back door, and
on opening it an unknown man thrust himself
in and demanded her money. On her making
an alarm he knocked her down several times.
Tying a rope around her neck, he demanded
where her money was hid. She told him II
was in her trunk, and while he was breaking
open and ransacking the trunk she made her
escape aud gave the alarm. The rubber Sc
cured Sc or 81 that was in her satchc'. A
| much larger sum VAS hid in her pillow case,
which he failed to find. Mrs. Davies was
bruised aud beaten in u shameful manner.
She says she does not know who her assail-
ant was. She can only say he was young and
wore light felt hat. She does not know
whether he was white or black. The day OF
robbery she received a remittance of SIZE
from England, which she had in the house
and which the thief failed to find. Mrs. Da'
vies is probably 10 or more wears of age and
has been living here since 1879, Her son,
Richard Davies, the well-to-do contractor and
builder, who built the present courthouse,
died of yellow fever in 1878. She left Wales
aud came to this country with her daughter
Nho died a few years afterward. During hel
daughters life tim, and since she has live'
like a hermit, having no companions, but hei

property in England or Wales, it Is general.
