pay master, II. d., got up a large,
finely appointed steamer. or pair of
steamers, for London, which, SO
successful were they, all ports then
set to initiating.
London alone still held back for
a good few years. London was not
ably shy of the steamship, great
as are its doings now in that line.
An old friend Of mine, the late Mr..
Strachey, has told me that in his
schooldays he at one time--early in
the nineties, ] should guess; say
1793-used to see in crossing West
minister bridge a little model steam
ship padding to and fro between
him and Blackfriars bridge, with
steam funnel, paddle wheels and
the other outfit, exhibiting and rec
ommending itself to London and
whatever scientific or other spirit
or marine adventure London might
have. London was entirely dead to
the phenomenon, which had to duck
under and dive across the Atlantic
before London saw it again, when
a new generation had risen.
"The real inventor of steamships

the maker and proprietor of that
fruitless model on the Thames-was
Mr.. Miller laird of Dalwinston in
Dumfriesshire (Poet Burns land

now to be heard Of in those parts,
having had to sell Dalwinston and
die quasi bankrupt-and, | should
think, broken hearted - and after
that completing his painful inven-
ton and finding London and man
kind dead to it.
"Miller's assistant and work hand
for many years was John Bell,
joiner in Sle neighboring village of
Thornhill. Miller being ruined, Bell
was out of work and connection,
emigrated to New York, and there,
speaking much of his old master

Mrs. Hume was rather genteel in ap-

that she comes of a family of profess

at Spokane so indicate. though there
was nothing about her 10 sugges her

ewice apprehended here for some petty
pilfering. though IL was supposed at the
time that the thefts were due TO her
personal distress and not to her adept
ness at the crime OF shoplifting. From
mere herself n children went TO Spo-
kane. where she is said To nave married
a man named Robert Kidd. The Spo-
