New Use for the Subway |.
First pub, July 10, 1901.

A visitor to this city who car ried satchel stamped "J. B. S.. Topeka, Kansas" was riding north on a Fourth-avenue car last Friday, when he nudged the conductor and asked:
 "Where will this sewer empty that they're digging through the town?" The conductor rang up a-couple of fares, and answered:
 ''That's no sewer. That's the underground railroad"
 "You don't be telling me-" exclaimed J. B. $. "But why are they digging it so near the sidewalks?"
 The car had now reached Six teenth street, near Fourth ave- nue, where the excavation is partly under the sidewalk.
 "That's so the saloon keepers can put their late customers aboard from the cellar and send them hOme."
 The Topeka man gazed down into the black hole for a moment and then, as his face suddenly frightened, he said: 'NThat decides it, Ever since Mrs. Nation began splintering things out our way I've had a mind to move. But this here in- ventiOn settles it."
 ''SettleS what?" asked the con- ductor, as if he did not exactly understand.
 Moving" answered the man with a satchel; "I'm going to move to this town now. New York Tribune.

A LORRAINE CROSS FOUND.

A very interesting relic of the tribal
wars between the Huron and Iroquois
Indians in the seventeenth century
reached Montreal a short time since in
the shape of lorraine cross. This
was found about three months ago by
an Indian named Michael Cat, on an
island in Sucker Gut lake. in the Lake
Temiscamingue district of northern On
tario The cross is about five inches
in length by three in width, is made of
solid silver and resembles in shape the
old fashioned achbishop5s crozier. In
other words. it looks like Roman cross,
with the addition, however, of a second
arm, which is placed Immediately below
the upper arm. The latter is little
shorter than the one beneath, and the
ends of each, as we'll as those of the up
right center, are delicately carved and
shaped. The cross has been pronounced
by Father Jones, Of the Jesuit college,
to be one of fifty given by the Countess
of Lorraine, to the chiefs of the Huron
tribe of Indians in the early years of
the seventeenth century, to induce them
to become allies Of the French armies,
then in Canada. At that time the Iro-
quois We're the active allies of the Brit
ish troops in the American colonies, and
had been supplied by the British officers
with modern implements of war, which
they used with terrible execution against

their deadly and hereditary enemies, the
Huron Indians.
With view Of securing the sympathy
and cooperation of the Huron chiefs for
and with the French king then in Cam
ada, the Countess of Lorraine presented
fifty of the Lorraine Crosses" to the
French officers for distribution among
the chiefs. The form of these crosses
was limited in it's use to the Lorraine
kings of France.
The particular cross found by Michael
Cat must have been given to it's owner
some time before the year 1649, for in
that year the Hurons were eXterminated
Oy the lroquOis The fact that the cross
was found in part of the country oc-
cupied by the Algonquin Indians-of
which tribe Longfellow's Hiawatha was
member-is regarded as proof that
the Huron chief towhom it belonged had
escaped from his enemies, the Iroquois,
and had taken up his abode with the AL
sonquins. An effort will be made this
year to locate his body, as it is believed
that It must be buried somewhere in the
vicinity of where the cross was found.
| The latter is at present in the possession
or Harry G. Woods, who Is the Hud-
sons bay agent at Bear Island Post.
The identity of the cross was ascertain
; ed by the officials Of the colonization
department of the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way who referred the matter to Father
Jones.-Montreal Star.

MRS. PECKOVER'S PAPER.

Mrs. Peckover's paper on Queen Anne
was in part as follows:
THE reign of Queen Anne Q1O2-l1D,
was long regarded as the Augustan age
of English literature, on account of its
supposed resemblance in intellectual
wealth to the age of the Emperor Au
sustus. Pope, Addison, Steele, Bolin-
broke. Sterne, Defoe. Dean, Swift and
Richardson were the characteristic writ
ers of the time, and with one eXcep-
ton are to be considered in later papers.
Therefore the field left to this paper
seems to be study of the influences
which affected these men.
1T will be shown that nearly all the
influences considered tend toward the
same results. While authors basked in
the sunshine of royal patronage the time
had come when the success of books no
longer depended on some one wealthy
person, but were bought by a reading
public.
welsh says, Without pathos or fine
frenzy the prevailing style was neat,
clear, epigramatic.' Legends of saints
had amused the middle ages, and the ro-
manccs of chivalry had been popular in
the seventeenth century, but a new
social reform was now developing, in
! which people desired to see themselves
| and talk of themselves. The world Of
| legend and of romantic grandeur had
grown dim and unreal, and a fiction was
| wanted that should be domestic and
practical, telling the story of common
| life only.
Natural peace and wealth had occa-
| stoned the rise of a middle class of re-
| spectacle persons, literary idlers who
| had money to buy and leisure to read
books, but who wished to be entertained,
not reused to think, gently excited but
| not deeply moved.
The article quoted assumes that the
| style of writing is wholly an outcome of
| the spirit of the age and goes on to say
| when a heartless cynicism is fashion
| able. when brilliancy is preferred to
| sobriety, when morality tends to sys-
| tenn of abstract rules, when sermons be-
come diagrams, theorems and corollaries.
| what will be the character of poetry?'
evidently it must express the temper
of the age, instead of strong passions,
elevated emotions, and sublime aspira-
| tions. The poet will give US critical ac-
/ curacy of thought, elegance of phrase,
| symmetry of parts and measured har-
monies of sound. The relative position
| of prose was never higher than at that
date.
1.-THE drama Of the restoration had been
so outrageously immoral that the intel

THE BIRDS SENTINEL.

One Of natures sharpest sentinels Is
the blue heron. Not only does he stand
guard for himself and immediate rela-
tives, but he is unwittingly a sentry for
other birds. Ducks and geese use him.

men, particularly duck and geese hunt
ers, do not employ decoy resembling a
heron, or crane, as they are often err
roneously called. l can assure the read

blue heron as a lure for the feathered
gobble.s.
