THEY KEPT THEIR COOKS.

Celebrities Who Married Their Ser
 vants--Cne Took seven.
 William Cobbett the great writer
 and the "Liberator of the English
 Press" as he Is frequently called, was
 only 21 years of age when, early one
 morning while out walking at Halifax Nova. Scotia, he chanced to see a ser
 want girl busily engaged in washing clothes outside a small hut. The girl
 although only IS years of age, was very
 pretty, so Cobbatt spoke to her, learned
 her name and the same evening called
 upon her parents to obtain their assent to his marriage with their daughter.
 They politely informed him that he
 would have to wait until she reached a marriageable age. He accordingly gave her all the money he possessed, e150, and she crossed to Egnland and enter ed service in clergymans family as a domestic. Five years later Cobbett re- turned to England and married her, | Sir Henry Parkes, who emigrated to Australia with a solitary half crown in his pocket and afterward rose to be premier of New South Wales, is an- other case in point. One night when dining at a friends house has was struck by the appearance of the domes- tic who waited upon him, and persuad- ed his host to allow her to enter his employ This she did, and for a short time held the position of cook in his household, until at length his love for her overcame all scruples and he made her his wife.
 M Blondin the famous wire walker, for many years steered clear of matri- mony, until eventually he welded his nurse. He happened to be performing at the Raikes hall Blackpool, when he fell and sprained his back. In help less condition he was carried to the Station hotel and placed under the care of a young lady, who nursed him with such skill that long before he became convalescent he had proposed and been accepted, a romantic courtship that speedily led to the altar.
 Literary men have more than once married their servants, Shelley, after passionately wooing his housekeeper, who was the daughter of a republican, married her, and not long afterward de- serted her for Mary Goodwin. A more eccentric lover was Thomas Day, the author of the famous book, Sanford and Merton" He selected two young girs-one from Shrewsbury workhouse and the other from the founding asy- lum in London--and took them into his employ as domestics. He proposed to both in turn, but the latter rejected his addresses. while the former accepted him and then withdrew her decision, owing to his eccentricity. The great author, however, admired the girl for her courage and settled upon her a lowry of a5OO instead of making her his wife, at the same time deciding to | remain a bachelor.
 Even more curious were the matri- | nonial affairs of Sir Gervaise Clifton | whose history of Jamaica is among the l inest works of it's kind in existence. He vas married no fewer than seven times | md on each occasion selected his | 'pouse from among his domestics. The eventh outlived him. but the other six le buried in family vault. which he { quilt at a cost of $50, ,0OO,-Tit-Bits.

LINES SUGGESTED BY A SOJOURN
 ON BLOCK ISLAND What power sublime lies in the might, deep, | Forever restless running to and fro; l The wary mariner doth ceaseless vigi l keep, While landsmen sleep unconscious | down below. | See how the towing pillows in theil wild career | In rythmic order break upon the shore Man is but weakness, and has cause to fear When once he hears "Old Ocean's' fearful roar: the sea, Nor heed the dangers that surround them there; They court the dangers you or I would flee. Securing blessings we are glad to
 share. Therein the great leviathan doth play, Nor fears "Old Neptunes' ever chang
 ing mood The wings of commerce spread by night
 and day Reveals mans wisdom and secures him
 food, And see the shells with beauty over-
 spread, Revealing mind and power in every
 line. Proclaiming-even now they're dead The hand that formed us must have
 been divine. o, wondrous sea- and in thy wide em-
 brace Vast stores of food for all the human
 race, Encased in shell or dressed in shining
 scale. Adorned, propelled and followed by a
 tail Secrets profound, from mortals well
 concealed; If thou couldst speak would surely be
 revealed. But if the knowledge would increase
 our woe 'Twere better far for mortals not to
 know; And so by day we breathe the bracing
 air And sleep at night so free from toll and We know old ocean was not made in
 vain: We'll sing her praises and repeat the
 strain. J. M. P.

of Providence, R. T., superioy of the
 mission of St. Charles in this country;
 Rev. o. Alussi and Rev. A. Demo, both
 pastors of Italian churches in New York
 city, and others. The resident pastors l of St. Patrick's, St. Francis and St.
 Johns churches attended the services at St. Michael's in the afternoon.
 The Italians are the only Catholics in this country who are without a pa- 1 rochial school system. There is only one Italian parochial school in the | United States and that is in Buffalo. The bishop long ago conceived the idea of starting a movement in favor of Italian parochial schools in this coun- try, and that is mainly his purpose here at this time. In South America the parochial school system is very thor oughy established, and it is the bish- ops intention to excite the same inter- est here.
 In an interview yesterday the bishop said that the system of parochial schools which he would have estab- lished among the Italians here differed not at all from those in existence among Irish and German Catholics.
 
 have not been started among the Ital- ians is that they are very poor class, and in their struggle for a livelihood have neglected this most important phase of education
 The bishop feels that the time is now ripe to start parochial schools among Italians, especially in cities where the per cent. of Italian population is as large as it is in New Haven. As he travels on his way he will attempt to SOW seeds which he hopes will spring up and ultimately bear fruit. The bishop said that his tour of the United States was a continual revelation to him. Tt Is all very wonderful to me" he said
 Bishop Scalabrini is plain old fash toned appearing man. He has merry eyes and benign countenance. One feels that he is sincere in every word and movement. Occasionally he be- comes enthusiastic, and especially was his interest manifest when he dwelt on the importance of the Italians studying and remembering their native language and retaining the traditions of their country and religion. But he was sharp enough to add: "Of course, I be- lieve in a thorough English education. But the Italian citizen of the United States should learn both. There is no reason why in studying the language and customs of his adopted country he should forget the land that gave him birth.''

The children participated In croquet and other games, and all partook of q hountiful repast which was furnished through the generosity and actiev efforts of the ladies of St. Andrews guild. This pie nicking near home was probably enjoyed as much by the little ones as m excursion to the shore would have been, and 1t Is safe to say that no illness will result as Is too often the case when children are taken upon outings which are almost too tedious and wearying for even adults.
