BRITISH REGIMENTS.
the Royal Rifles Organized
in New York.

The names of the British regiments
are not TO be taken as indicating much.
The Royal Dublin fusiiiers, 10 which,
according to one dispatch, the credit
for the capture of the Beers position
should be accorded, is regiment raised
in India some 200 years ago, which in
all probability has never been in Ire
land. 1t got the name probably for
the reason that at the time of the re-
organization of the army in 1881 three
battalions of Irish militia were attached
to 1t as its reserve.
The Royal Rife corps, which is re-
ported to have lost heavily in its charge
on the Beers, is a famous regiment
which was organized in New York in
1775. 1t was originally known as the
"SiXty-second Royal American regi-
ment of foot" One hundred years ago
the regiment was famous for the
craftsmanship of its members. To-day
1t is famous for the same reason, and no.
torious from the fact that il includes
any number of "bad boys" who were en-
listed to be Strengthened out. 1t is an
interesting reminder of our own little
trouble with Great Britain.

Ingersoll on Glover.

The late Colonel Ingersoll once
sen: the following letter Of regret in
answer to an invitation to Dime by
the Clover Clubs
81 regret that it is is impossible for
me to be in "clover' with you to-
morrow, first anniversary dinner, 1888.
A wonderful! thing is "clover." 1t
means honey and cream--that is to
say, industry and contentmen,, that is
to say, the happy bees is perfumed
felds-and at the cottage gate "Old
Boss" the bountiful, serenely chewing
satisiaction's cud in that blessed twi-
light pause that, like a benedlction
falls between all toll and sleep. This
clover makes me dream of happy
hours, of childhood's rosy cheeks, of
dimpled babes, Of wholesome, loving
wives, of honest men, of springs and
brooks and violets, and all there is of
stainless JOY in peaceful human life.
A wonderful word is clover Drop
the &c" and you have the happiest of
mankind. Take away the &C" and 'r"
and you have left the only thing that
makes heaven of this dull and bar
ren earth. Cut off the "r" alone, aud
there remains a very deceitful bud
that sweetens the breath and keeps
peace in countless homes whose
masters frequent clubs. After all,
Bottom was right, Good hay, sweet
hay, hath no fellow"

EAGLE AND LOBSTER.
Rider Hagsnrd's nrother Tells of n
Most Remarkable Battle
in the Air.

Lieut.. Col. Andrew c. p. Haggard, an
elder brother of Rider Haggard. the
novelist, recently returned from trip
to Newfoundland, and tells OF re-
markabe sight he saw while sitting on
the seashore with a guide with whom
he had been fishing for salmon in the
Terra Nova river. They had been
watching for some time the evolutions
of white-headed eagle, called by the
Newioundlanders grip" After soar
ing round in several circles above and
in front of them the eagle suddeyly
dashed down into n pool of water near
them on the beach and rcappeared hold
ing an enormous lobster in his talons.
1t was an old lobster, with huge
claw, white with barnacles. The eag1o
had him clutched firmly around the
back, and at first the huge claw hung
helplessly down, the barnacles shining
white in the sunlight. This was only
for second, though. The ripples on
the recently disturbed pool had not yet
died away when the captive lobster sud-
denly awoke TO the seriousness of the
situation, and to think was to act. Up
moved the great white barnacled claw
until it seized the eagle round the neck
There was furious fluttering and beat
ing of the eagles wings, a melancholy
squawk from his choking throat, and
then, tumbling and rolling head over
heels in the air in n confused mass,
down came the eagle and lobster again
splash back into the pool.
The two spectators of the scene
rushed forward, thinking that they
could perhaps in some way secure both
combatants, for the splashing of the
conflict continued in shallow water.
But they had hardly time to pick up
stone apiece to throw at the eagle
before the lobster, feeling himself at
home again, let go his hold. With his
neck all torn and devoid of feathers,
away flew the bedraggled eagle, in most
melancholy guise, to a neighboring
cliff, while the lobster, to give Col. Hag-
CARDS own words, still brandishing
his enormous claw in defiance, re-
mained smiling at the bottom of the
pool"

TARLAC TAKEN.
AguinaIdO's Whereabouts Stin n
Mystery.

MANILA, Nov. 13.-Colonel Bells reg.
iment and small force of cavalry en-.
tered Tarlac last night without oppos.
ton. Where Aguinaldo with his army
and the so called government have fed is
mystery.
General Macarthur took Bamban Sat-
urday This is supposed to he the strong
est position held by the Filipinos except
Tarlac. The brief accounts of the en-
gagement received indicate that the reb-
els fought according to their recent tao
ties, retreating after firing a few volleys.
One officer of the Thirty-sixth regiment
is the only American reported killed.
General Lawton's headquarters are still
at Cabanatuan.
General Young with his cavalry and ar
tillery is still pushing ahead through the
fearful mud, but his exact whereabout is
not known.

Yesterday was another of the
many days that the world end was
predicted. But it didn't come, and
as result part of the population
of Virginia, who had disposed Of
their earthly possessions, in antici-
patton of the end, are now kicking
themselves because they were 50
foolish as to believe certain long
haired chap, who called himself a
prophet. Too bad. They have our
sympathy.

A Monarch Indeed.

The emperor Of China has some
strange duties. One of these is the or,
dering OF the seasons. In China il is
summer when the emperor says 1t Is
summer. All domestic arrangements
are made to suit the season, as pro.
claimed by the emperor although they
may not suit the individual at all.
