"Paron Kelly isa besuilng variation on

brought to the composition Of this novel so
much historical lore, so much insight into the
Jacobite comedy, so much sympathy Tor the
actors in It. both major and obscure, that the
book Is alive with true romance. The Prince
scarcely appears, yet the air Of plot and eoun-
terplot, OF brave deeds and shabby intrigue, in
which he and his house are enveloped,
breathss from every page. The easy flow Of
the narrative, the Ingenious development Of
the plot we must credit probably to Mr.. Ma

happy. Historical knowledge and mag
NATIVE power are in 'Parson Kelly blended
into remarkably compact and plausible
unit. New York Tribune.
This is an extremely clever novel; witty,
humorous, animated and picturesque, and so
full Of dramatic situations that II would make
a line play. The characterization Is
strong, the narrative brisk, and In style and
incilent the novel possesses highly attractive
qualities A very pretty love story runs
through the book.

Henry l.. Dawes OF Pittsfeld. Mas.

senate. told the following story:
"when was a judge In Pittsfn}c,
Morrissey and Yankee Sullivan fought
q prize fight at n neighborinS place
called Boston Corners. Sullivan was
arrested and fined $1,000. He handed
over the money and went his way. A
day or two later. while was sitting on
the bench. fine looking man entered
the courtroom and sent letter up TO
me. Ii was from a friend OF mine In
PRODUCING John Morrissey. He. too.
was fined $1,000 and said to me that
he would send me his check on bis re-
turn to New York.
"well, I didn't know what might
happen IL he was let go on that under
standing. but I said TO Morrisssy that
my arrangement for settlement which
he made with the sheriff would be sat

did. insisted upon having the fine paid
In cash. and since Morrissey didn't
happen to have that much cash with
him the sheriff locked him Up until
the amount was sent on from New
York.
IL fancied that Morrissey felt he
owed me a grudge because Of this In
cident. Years afterward In Washing

were brought up 70 be introduced to
me. Among them was Morrissey.
When he came forward. he smiled

One OF the priced curios OF the Phila-

years old and which was coined at the
ancient mint Of that other Philadelphia
of the far east mentioned In the Bible.
1t Is still In good condition. and the
inscription Is perfectly Iegible. The
design on the face Of the coin bears a
striking resemblance to the Goddess
Of Liberty OF our own currency. and
underneath is the one word Demos
which means "the people" On the
other side Is the figure Of Diana, with
her bow arched, and the inscription.
Diana, Friend of the Philadelphlans."
When this coin was struck OF, Phlla-

THE HEREFORD IN ENGLAND.

The victory Of Her Msjesty's Hereford

particularly gratifying ~ supporters OF
the famous teef breed OF the West Mid
lands. The triumph Of the Flemish
Farm bullock WAS satisfactory in that
IL was well deserved and unanimously
approved Of; In short, that it Was ipdis-
putsble and complete. But for Here
ford breeders IL possessed q far deeper
and more abiding cause for rejoicing
In 1881 and 1882 the Bingley Hall shows
were championed by Hereford bullocks
fed by John Price, Court House, Penn
bridge, but since the latter year no rep
resentxtive Of the local variety had
won the supreme honor until the
Queens wonderful steer achieved II on
Saturday. More than once the white
faces have fought their way 10 the hnsi
combat; but In the end the reserve, In
stead OF the more convicted card, has
been their reward. So persistent had
become the overthrow OF the Hereford
representative at the vital moment that
