Sarcasm About the Clergy.

Lighter Moments. is the title of a
modest little book. chiefly anecdotes Of
the clergy, recently published in Lon.
don by the executors of the late Bishop
Walsham How. He relates u couple Of
anecdotes Of Archbishop Magee- When
that dignitary was Bishop Of Peter.
borough he was walking with the Bish-
op Of Hereford by the Wye, and said:
"If you will give me your river 1 will
give you my see." There is this other
story also in Bishop How's collections:
"a lady who was a great admirer of a
certain preacher took Bishop Magee
with her to hear him. and asked him
afterward what he thought Of the ser.
mon. 1T was very long, the Bishop
said. Yes said the lady, but there
was a saint in the pulpit And a mar.
tyr in the pew rejoined the Bishop"
DR.. How had the following definition:
"Dr. B of Oswestry has three
horses. which he has named High
Church. Low Church and Broad
Church, The reason he gives is that
the first is always on his knees the Sec
ond never, and as for the third you
never know what he will do next"

A we'll developed specimen OF the vii
tage butler is an imposing parsonage.
a story is told of II whose taste for
he impressive was too much for the
family whose service he had entered.
He was n newcomer, and almost his
first duty was to announce the arrivals
at his employers first Mt home of the
season. The earliest guests to appear
were Mr.. and Mrs. Penny and their
daughter, and familiar friends of the
family. The new butler announced
them in measured tones and with ma
jestic mien: mir. Edwin Algernon
Pembroke Penny, Mrs. Edwin -Alger-
non Pembroke Penny, and Miss Maud
Victoria Penny" Other arrivals were
announced at equal length and with
equal solemnity. Before the next at
home, the master of the house suggest
Ell that SO much repetition and elabora-
ton was unnecessary; that lie would
prefer to have his guests announced
more briefly. The magnificent being
bowed grave assent and said nothing.
But his feelings had been wounded;
and lie vas unlike most of his kind,
Us clever rs he was majestic. AS be
fore, the first to arrive were Mr.. aIM
Mrs. Penny and Miss Penny. When
they had assembled the stairs, they
paused an instant at the drawing
door; the next, the butler flung
1t abruptly open, and they heard them,
selves briskly announced to their dis
mayed hosts in the comprehensive
formula: "Threepence!"

His FACE Said Yes.

1t is related of Jefferson that. while
riding, in company with two young
men, he came to Il creek so swollen by
a shower that the water was up to the
s~addlegirths.
y man, standing on the bank with a
saddle on his shoulders, looked Mt the
young men as they rode into the stream,
but said nothing. AS MI. Jefferson came
along, the stranger asked if he could
not be allowed to mount behind and
thus be carried across.
The President refined his horse up
to Il stone; the man mounted and, when
across. expressed his thanks and
walked away. Several men who had
seen the novel ferry asked:
What made YOU let the young men
pass, and why did you ask the old gen.
tleman:"
WAL, if you want to know. Ill tell
you. l reckon a man carries Yes or
NO in his face. The young chaps
faces said No. the old un's Yes

party, who would have asked the
President Of the United States for q

Thomas Jefferson Knew What He Was
About When He Bought ItChsap.
The fact that the Natural Bridge tract
Is to be sold has opened the way for
some writer's to romance about it.
1t is stated that it was q part Of the
Inheritance of Thomas Jefferson, but
that is not our information, says the
Richmond Dispatch. We have always
thought that Mr.. Jefferson patented the
land-i. e., bought it from the crown
at about a shilling an acre.
Nj. jefferson and George Washing
ton both were far-seeing men and good
judges Of land and lookup" num-
beers of valuable tracts. Washington.
particularly, owing to his personal
knowledge Of our Western Wirginial
lands. was fortunate in his selection.
Mr.. Jefferson acquired the bridge
tract in 1874. OF the bridge itself, he
wrote that it was worth q trip across
the ocean to see; but for o long time its
inaccessibility caused it to be seldom
visited. even by u OWE people. The
construction of the old James River
and Kanawha canal put it near a high
way of travel. Later, railroad lines
canle within q few miles of it, and
row thousands visit it annually.
Since Jefferson's time the bridge has
had many owners. AT IL period it be-
lonsed to the Hartman family. Colonel
Henry Clay Parsons bought it about
1851, and formed d stock company to
run" it. His residence there led up
to his death at the hands of Conductor
Goodman, at Clifton Forge, on June
20, 1894. To What extent he or his
family held stock in the bridge com
pany ut that time we are not Informed.

have been considerable.

ue Profession of Forestry.

A comparatively new profession in
America, and one that offers substan-
tial inducements to young men Of spe-
cial aptitudes, is that Of forestry. The
fact that the Federal Government is in
crcasing the + of its forest preserves
largely every year. and that many
State governments are following this
laudable example suggests the ever
widening field already open to students
and specialists in the science of for.
estry. It Is now generally recognized
that every large forest reservation or
preserve needs for its proper care and
supervision Q corps of men trained for
this special purpose. Germany. France
and other European countries have had
their schools Of forestry for yeara and
their graduates are found in charge of
forest lands in every part Of the old
world.

Unclaimed.

Every year there are picked up in the
cutters of London, or taken from pawn,
brokers' shops, jewels amounting In
value from fifteen to twenty thousand
pounds. These are duly advertised; but
for many reasons even people who rec.
ognize the description Of their own
property in the advertisements do not
care to claim it, and it thus comes
about that the proportion Of property
left unclaimed is a large one. 1t Is tho
rule, indeed, that where such waltz
ables have not previously been report
ed to the police by their n as
missing they are seldom claimed after
wards. The London police keep all
such property fer twelve months, ad-
vertising it in three daily papers dur
ing that period. If no nj claims it,
and the account of the finder seems rea-
sonable, it is handed v e to the latter,
the police deducting the cost Of the adj
vertisements only. If a pawnbroker has
detained the article and NO ono claims
it, the police at the end Of twelve
months give the pawnbroker a reward;
and here let 1t be said that these re-
wards often amount IN a year to q large
sum. In this latter case the article is
sold, and the surplus money. after the
reward has been paid. is handed over,
not to the police funds, as most people
imagine, but to the relief and mainten.
ance Of discharged prisoners. 1t has
been put as n paradox that a thief may
in this way ultimately be led to a new
way of life by his own original theft.
