 The Murmurer remembered and used az a quotation the expression referred to as having been read by him many years ago in a speech delivered in the United States Senate by Senator Benjamin Harvey Hill in his memorable debate with Senator William Malone, who had just taken hls seat as the Readjuster Senator from Vir- ginia. Students of political history will recall to mind that Hill sought to make Malone declare himself as to whether he would vote with the Democrats or the Republicans, the Senate being then very nearly tie between the two parties. Ma hone appeared to be lodging the issue. and that seemed to convince Hill that the Virginian had made a bargain with the Republicans, an assumption of the Geor- gian that time proved to be absolutely true.
 In his last speech of the debate - the best speech ever made by the best orator of our time-Hill denounced Malone in fierce and noble rage, and declared, prac- tically to Malone, that
 He who dallies is dastard, he who doubts Is damned" f-
 Mahone replied with strong spirit to Iiilrs onslaught of rhetoric, and in the course of his speech he quoted Scott:
 ( If thou says't I am not the peer Of any lord of Scotland here, S Highland or lowland, far or near
 Lord Angus, thou hast lied'
 The Murmurer does state it as fact that the imperishable words quoted by Mrs. Baskerville were uttered first by the immortal Hill. He merely states the source of his own authority for the quo tation, and adds that he has been unable to discover any use of it or any phrase or sentence resembling it in any writing pre- vious to Hills speech of 1881. Bartlett s does not give it at all, nor does any other book of quotations that has been exam ined.
 Mrs. Baskerville is herself scholarly and brilliant woman and graceful writer, as well as being a leader of Mississippi society, and thus there is special pleasure In Serxyinp her

charged. If the twenty-seven large sea- ports of the United States were each pro- tected, as military men say they should be, with ten batteries of five rifles each, 1t is estimated that it would cost near ly half a million dollars to fire single round from all the guns in position single battleship or large cruiser costs millions. and yet it may be entirely de- stroyed by torpedo or by few shots if they happen to hit the right places. Every new discovery, either in the way of new engines or warfare or of more deadly and dangerous explosives, makes war more costly A dozen old ships of the line could be built and completely equipped for less than 1t costs to put a
 modern battleship into the water. A ton of gunpowder would not do as much damage as a few hundred pounds of melenite or any of the modern explosives

Little Danger and Much Pleasure in
 Para chute Drop.

Parachute Drop.
 Coming down from the clouds in a parachute is like dream, said a circus balloon artist Ever dream of falling from high place? You come down, alight quietly and awake, and you're rot hurt. Well, that's the par achute drop over again. No, there IS no danger. X parachute can be guided readily on the down trip, but you cant steer a balloon. To guide a par achute out of harm s way practiced hand can tilt it one way or the other, spill out air. and thus work it to where you want to land, or to avoid water, trees, chimneys or church spires. Circus ascensions are gener- ally made in the evening. When the sun goes down the wind goes down. The balloon then shoots into the air and the parachute drops back on the circus lot. or not far away. A bal loon is made of four-cent muslin. and weighs about 500 pounds. parachute is made of eight-cent muslin. The .rope that secures the parachute is cut with a knife. The aeronaut drops full ly 100 feet before the parachute begins to fill. It must fill, if you're up high enough. There are several hundred parachute men in the business and the accidents are less in ratio than rail road casualties. Our business is new at that After while the ratio will be less. A man cant shake out par achute if it doesn't open. A man in the air is simply powerless. Invariably the fall is head first. When the para chute begins to fill the descent is less rapid, and finally, when the parachute has finally filled, it bulges out with a pop. Then the aeronaut climbs on to his trapeze and guides the parachute to a safe landing. In seven cases out of ten you can land back on the lot where yGu started from

Queen yicsoria's Own Depot,

The fact is not generally known that the Queen has private railway sta- tion. This is at Gosport, and is used by her majesty when embarking for Osborne. The station consists of a long semicircular platform. the end of which is connected with a pontoon, against which the royal yacht is us- ually moored. It Is a strange fact that no other member of the royal family ever uses this station.
