TO the farmer to hurry. One Of bis

member Of the Eureka's crew had ever
witnessed before. he roused the Somer-
set mans slow temper and made him
show what was real activity.
He was out on deck In four seconds
and went for his negro assailant, bel
lowing like an angry bull. He picked
the man up, as any one else might have
picked up a doll, and flung him like
full corn sack at one Of his duaky mates
who was just popping up through the
companion to see what all the noise was
about.
Something clattered on the deck
planks and lay glistening in the moon
light. It was nickel plated revolver.
Mrs. Jelly rushed across and picked it
up, while Guthrie slammed to the doors

IT had occurred TO him that there
might be others Of the schooner's crew
in the fore peak, and as there was no
immediate use for them on deck just

THE LATE SENIOR CASTELAR,.

THE LATE SENIOR CASTELAR,.
the American and British peoples.
Senior Castelar, was eminent as an au-
| thor as well as a statesman. Among
his works may be named art, Re-
ligion and Nature in Italy" QS74), and
History of the Republican Move
ment" (1875), besides a number of nov
els. biographies and works upon poll
tics and literary criticism Castelar's
patriotism and high personal charac-
ter were never questioned. That the
fallen dictator earned respect and not
ridicule is due to his success in CON
vincing his countrymen of his honesty
Castelar,, in fact, raised the level Of
what was expected from Spanish poll
ticians, and thereby did his country no
contemplate service. During the late
war with the United States he main
tanned quiet, patriotic attitude. He
was returned to the Cortes at the late
election, but it was by a small ma
jority, which caused him to intimate
that he would not take an active part
In politics. Senior CASTELAR, had a mar
Vicious gift of oratory. When ONLY %
years of age he awoke one morning to
find himself famous as an orator. A
meeting at the Teatro del Oriente in
Madrid supplied the opportunity. The
occasion was military uprising under
Gen. Dulce against one Of the unstable
ministries which followed the down
fall of Narvaez in 1851. At the meet
ing in the theater, there had been an
abundant consumption of eloquence.
and the satiated audience was begin
ming to dispense CASTELAR, had sat
silent while his elders were speaking
but now he sprang to his feet. The
audience was first arrested, then drawn
back. When CASTELAR, sat down. he
had taken his place as the most popu-
lar orator Of the day. This great Gift
of oratory he retained to the end Of
lis life.

Black stockings have gold and silver

For red dress, the stockings will be

WHEN HOME is SWEET.
How to Make 1t Attractive to the

How to Make 1t Attractive to the
Fewer wives won sit lonesomely at
home while their husbands roam else
where in search of entertainment if
more wives realized that home should
be something besitas a clean place to
eat and sleep in, says the Gentle
woman. Men hate" women's tea par
ties and large show functions but they
like little dinner and supper parties.
Many families refrain from entertain
ing because they cannot do so on an
expensive scale. II is, however, posi-
bic to give small dinners and suppers
that are both enjoyable and inGxpen-
siVe. Ask people who either do or will
like each other, and if you wish the
women to have good time have just
as many men guests as women guests.
IL the men are to have q good time
make sure that some of the women are
pretty and flattering. Men like to be
fiattered. Oh, yes, they do. One of the
surest ways to be awkward lin COM
pany' is TO try to act differently from
ones accustomed manner. II ones
everyday manner is not good enough
for a company then it should be
changed, but the most delightful COM
pany manner is the natural manner
when it is natural to be charming. One
of the charms of an agreeable manner
is to seem unaffected; another is to
have something to say worth hearing.
and to say it easily and interestingly:
another is to listen appreciatively
when others speak.

TOmfOolery at Court.

Great dissatisfaction is felt at tn,
new rule in England as to presenta-
lions at court, by which those who are
included in the selected 200 at each
drawing room are decided upon by ball
lot. This rule has been made under
Lord Hopetoun's regime. and, although
the daughters of peers and peeresses
are not included in it, some awkward
complications have already arisen.
Thus the daughter-in-law of a duke
had arranged to present her handsome
young daughter, and, in addition. a
lady of middle age, with whom she is
slightly acquainted. A freak of the
ballot has obtained that the elderly
lady shall go to court, while the
youthful debutante is excluded-nat-
urally, to the great annoyance of her
mother, who had arranged to attend a
drawing room on purpose to present
her daughter. 1t seems clear that a
rule which can lead to such anomalies
will have to be modified sooner or
later.

which seems to prove that the original
ROCK OF Ages is in Darlington Coombe,
winch is on the edge of my place, and
AFTER careful investigation of the mat
ter am satisfied that the story is true
IN every particular. 1t appears that
one day the distinguished author was
caught in heavy thunderstorm in
harrington Coombe, and there taking
shelter, between two massive piers OF
our native limestone rock, he penned
MS famous hymn that has immortal
lied him" In all England there is
probably no more beautiful, weird, or
romantic spot than Darlington Coombe
"a deep indenture in the dark, swell
ing hill known as Black Down which
rising to the height of / 100 feet forms
the summit of the Mendip Range. The
road winds through Darlington
Coombe. between lofty, and in some
places, precipitous slopes. where the
gray rock shows boldly among the
bracken. At one point there is a con-
splcuous crag Of mountain limestone
seventy or eighty feet in height, o
prominent object on the right hand to
any one approaching from Bladgon
road. Right down the center of this
mass OF stone is deep flssure, in the
recess of which grows many a fern,
while on the hillside around are trees
whose stunted growth and wind-worn
appearance tell of the scanty soil and
the exposed situation. This was the
assure in which Toplady took refuge,
and it was this cleft" and this rock
which suggested the central idea OF his
beautiful hymn.
