THE ORDER OF THE GARTER.
It's Members Men of Great Personal Dis
tinction.

It's Members Men of Great Personal Dis
tinction.
Lord Melbourne used to say that
there was only one order in the world
worth having. and that was the Gar
ter, because there was no merit at
tached to it at all, and that was what
made it the first or,icr ii Lurope. And
therein Lord Melbourne showed his
usual shrewdness. The distinction
men love best is the distinction which,
instead of making man distinguished,
merely singles him out as already be-
ing SO distinguished that no reason
needs to be given for Distinguishing
him further. The Garter practically
says: "Here is the man whom every
one will agree to think distinguished.
The Garter receives distinction from
him, rather than gives distinction to
him"
And that is precisely the kind Of tes-
timony which men covet most, says the
Spectator. What they de ire to think
of themselves is that they do not need
that any external reason should be as
signed for the honor in which they are
held; that that honor is, indeed, in
evitable, and is natural consequence of
their being what they are. Merit is
something earned by effort and labor.
But what people love most is distinc-
ton which is quite independent of eff
fort and labor, which is im5edded in
their nature, like genius or manner or
breeding. To be well bred is not at q
mans own command.

The Festival Closes,

The Connecticut Music Teachers as- sociation festival is over and the coun- try cousins with their lunch boxes and scores have departed. The fine weather of yesterday brought out large audiences at all the days concerts and the festival was concluded with every appearance of prosperity and success. The excellent business management of the festival deserves especial praise. The successful accomplishment of such a large scheme as the festival this year involved necessitates good business management and this the Connecticut Music Teachers association certainly has, The festival undoubtedly yielded large profit this year, which goes into the treasury as a guarantee of next prises are such failures financially, the fact that this enterprise is so prosper ous is surely worthy of note. The con- certs this year have been uniformly good and several of the events have been of the highest character. The annual festivals are the source of great enjoyment to the music lovers of this city and the city owes the association a debt of gratitude. The idea is to continually raise the standard and, if next year it should be decided to in- crease the price, the popularity of the festival will be in no wise diminished.

"rRUE MOTn ER LODE."
Rich Discovery in the Wonderful Pand
 Basin -KIondike Ec1ipsed.

Seattle, May 1S.-Has the "True mother lode'' been found at last on American territory? Intelligence comes from Sitka, that the facts concerning the wonderful Pande basin have at last leaked out The Basin" is a wide canon, 600 feet deep, with the exposed end of gigantic glacier at it's head and a landslide dam a mile below. The glacier, moving with slow but irresisti- ble force, has been through countless ages grinding, like stupendous Ar rastra," surfaces of quartz filled with gold and pushing the detritus into this basin, which is now full. No such con- ditions exist anywhere else in the world. This vast deposit of gold bear ing gravel contains more than 100,00O 900 tons. Exhaustive assays of the gravel, selected by General Wiley, former chief of geological survey of California, from many points, at depths varying from to 25 feet, show an av- craze yield of $690 gold to the ton. Deeper down it is undoubtedly richer. These figures show that it's gold con- tents exceed the coined gold in the world to-day, eelipsing all the Klondike expectations. It is reported here that the property has been trusteed to MT. Maurice L. Muhleman of the United States sub-treasury at New York, the eminent authority on finance, whose name is fayorably known to every sbanker in the world.
