4 Roman Peace Jubilee.

Probably the most gorgeous peace
jubilee that the world has ever seen
was that celebrating at Rome the four
triumphs of the first Caesar. So mag
niicent were these triumphs that they
were celebrated at intervals of several
days lest the populace should be cloyed
by very splendor. They oommemorated
the final conquest of all Gaul, the de-
feat of Ptolemaus, the subsection of
Pharmacies and the victory over Juba.
Never had the Eternal City, then stand
ing upon the threshold of empire, ever
seen the like. The Egyptian Princess
Arsinoe and the son of the king of Nu-
midia walked captives behind the car
of the conqueror.
Costly figures and portraits of the
slain enemies of the republic, represent
ing the manner of their death, were
borne by Gallo slaves or carried In lit
tiers by the men who had fought under
the originals. Scipio, too, was shown
plunging into the sea; Cato, burying
his sword in his own bosom, and Deme-
trius, wounded in the back in token Of
his flight. Nor did the celebration stop
with the professions. The most sumptu-
Gus banquets were served in the public
squares, in one of which citizens re-
olined before % 900 tables groaning
under the accumulated weight of the
most luxurious delioacies
Public games were given and gladia-
tors recruited from the most courageous
prisoners fought with wild beasts from
the ends of the earth ana the circus was
hung with huge awnings of silk brought
from India at time when a queen could
not afford that material for her corona
ton robes. -Fhiladelphia Press.

CONSIGNED TO THE GRAVE.
Without Unnecessary POmp or FOrmality
Col. S-xton'S Remains Are Laid TO
Rest in Rose Hill Cemetery.

CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-WithOut unneces-
sary formality or pomp the remains of
the late Col. Sexton, commander-in-
chief of the &. A. r.. were laid at rest
Wednesday at Rose Hill cemetery.
Comrades of Columbia post conducted
the services at Memorial hall, in the
public library building, and at the
grave, while other posts of the city at
tended and assisted in the simple rites
of the order.
Escorted by the G. A. R. and by de-
tails of letter carriers and post office
clerks, the body was taken from the
residence, 561 La Sale avenue, at 9
o'clock. and was conveyed to Memorial
hall. There it lay in state, viewed by
hundreds of old soldiers and friends
until 1:30 o'clock, when the ritual SER
vice of the G. A. r. was read by
National Chaplain Daniel Lucas, of
Indianapolis. After the 40 posts of
Cook county had viewed the remains,
the funeral procession formed and the
body was borne to Rose Hill, where
again the religious ritual of the q. A.
r. was read.

"Come, come" chided the doctor,
"you are thinking of that letter andthe
bomb again."
''Not that exactly" the detective
said; ''but all at once it has occurred
to me that I haven't given my anony-
nous correspondent a fair showing.
He says Caruthers has been murdered
and we haven't really bit of actual
proof that he is lying"
"But, cried Lampkin, demonstrating
ly, 1.-The letter was written week ago,
and to-day's paper says he was at the
Horse Show last night"
Papers are not infallible," said
Hendricks, tapping his call bell. Some
thing in the general tone of this COM
munication makes me think that the
writer really meant to furnish me with
a grewsome exhibition in Caruthers'
apartments. Ny invitation comes late,
but am going to accept"
The Office boy came in.
Bring me to-day's Herald, quick!"
| Hendricks commanded with quite
| change of tone.
This time, as the detective took the
paper and began to open it, all his Gus
tomary calmness and deliberate
shrewdness seemed to settle on him.
For a moment his penetrating gaze
rested on the 'Notes of the Horse
Show" Then he grunted significantly
as he took up a pencil and drew a circle
around short paragraph.
| "There!" he calculated. "You see
this paper says Caruthers did not oc-
cupy his box last night; that, as he was
out of town, the box was courteously
extended to Count Bantinni and his
party-Miss Huntington, her aunt, and
other ladies'"
| Lampkin rose, an incredulous express
sion on his face, and leaned over the
paper. He started to speak, but Hen
bricks had suddenly dropped his hand
on the call-bell with considerable
force.
"What is it, sir?" asked the boy, from
the portals of the door leading into the
ante-room.
'To-day's Sum-" said the detective,
giving his friend a strange look.
When the boy had brought the pa

Show news most deliberately.
"No mention of Caruthers here what
ever" he said, finally. Doctor, what
time is it?''

''Do you want me to leave?"
The detective, reached fol; his over
coat.
"Come walk over to the Palace hote
with me-"
"Are you going to make inquiries
there?"

has returned" rejoined Hendricks, re

flectively, just touch of evasion in his
tone. "You see, he may have an enemy
who really intended to harm him in
some way, a week ago, and in such
matter a man ought to be put on his
guard"
"Of course" answered Lampkin.
You are quite right"
The detective thrust his hand into his

out in a disreputable wad.

You see, I'd GO a good many lengths to

AS the two friends turned into sight
of the twelve-story hotel, they saw in
front of it a long line of fashionable
carriages from which were alighting
men and ladies in evening dress
"Swell blowout" commented Hen
bricks. Doctor, we ought to have on
our swallow-tails and white neckties."

eastern chap, Kola, hadn't won your
heart so completely, I'd have given Up

F'You are that already, old man." re-

be depended on. When it suits him he

tant matters on hand find him in his
old rat-hole of a den drugged to his

hours before their execution was to

and said: Gen. Mejia, have been
three times your prisoner, and three
times you have spared my Efe. My

horse, and you are free to go where you
please"
And the emperor" asked Mejia.
"WiI be shot in two hours" an

"And you dare to come to me with
such a proposition! Leave the room!''
reioined the prisoner. Alatorre did so,
and Mejia and the emperor fell together.

had a glimpse of the white and gold
ballroom. The music of Hungarian
orchestra swelled out from a balcony
overhead, and throngs of men and wom-

ridors. Hendricks sank into a big

NAVAL IMPUDENCE.
The Humorous Expedient of an Eng
Iish Naval officer to Secure
Paint for His Ship.

Fifty years ago the allowance Of paint
in the British navy was very small, and
sometimes the officers had to pay large
sums in order that their ships might
maintain decent appearance. One of
them resorted to humorous eXpedient,
either to soften the heart of the navy
board, or if that proved impossible, to
express his opinion.
Sir John Phillimore painted one side
of his old yellow frigate black and
white, and used the rest of the black
paint in printing on the other side, in
large letters: No more paint"
The navy board wrote to call his at
tention to the improperly of his con-
duct, and signed themselves, as they
did, officially: "YOur affectiOnate
friends"
To this Sir John replied that he could
not obliterate the Objectionable letters
unless he was given more paint. and
signed himself, in turn; Your affec-
tionate friend, John Phillimore."
The navy board then called his at
tention to the improperly of the sig
nature, to which Sir John replied, ac-
knowledging the letter. stating that he
regretted that the paint had not been
sent, and ending:
81 am no longer your affectionate
friend, John Phillimore."
HIS frigate was allowed to retain her
original yellow; and perhaps the navy
board did right thus to punish Sir
Johns impertinence.-Youth's Com
