Harrison's Modest Lunch.

Ex.President Benjamin Harrison,
one Of the ablest men who has figured
in our public life, has always been
handicapped by his unresponsive,
cold manner. When he was in the
senate at Washington. D. @. in the
early SOS he always brought his
luncheon to the committee room. He
carried it in his coat pocket and
would eat 1t while he went on with
his work. One day when he got it
out as usual from his pocket he
looked it all over ruefully, for it did
look rather fat and dubious, he f.
nally remarked to those near by that

Scraps of History.

1t has been long time since Eng
land has had an Edward ON the
throne. Edward vi was the son Of
Henry VIII, and Jane Seymour the
third wife of that Illustrous william.
His mother died when he was born
and he succeeded his father on the
throne in 1547 and though king in
name (being only ten years old) his
reign was virtually that Of his uncle
the Earl Of Hertford who made him.
self Duke Of Somerset and ruled as
Protector. Dudley, the earl Of War
wick became his enemy and drawing
off part Of the council and charging
Somerse. with treason sent him to
the tower and then to the block.
The Duke of Northumberland fear
ing the re-establishment of Romanism
in the event of Mary's succeeding her
brother Edward, laid plans for the
succession to go to Lady Jane Grey,
the daughter Of the Duchess Of Suf-
folk who was descendant of Henry
VII. Edward vi died July 6, 1858
at the age Of seventeen and was sue
ceeded by the unfortunate Lady Jane
Grey, who held the throne for ten
days and then retired to private life.
But alas for the civilization Of those
times, she was tried Nov. 13, of the
same year and beheaded Feb. 12,
1854, when but II years old. Then
came the reign Of Bloody Mary,
daughter Of Henry VIII and bis first
wife, Catharine Of Aragon. Mary was
half sister of Edward vi.

Busy Life Of Victoria.

The queen learned from her Ger.
man mother the excellent habit OF
early rising, which stood her in good
stead during busy and laborious
life.
Not later than seven was the hour.
Her dressers were not literary women,
like Fanny Burney, nor did they add
to their other duties that of reading
to the queen herself or to the court
,;.,,o
Like the women OF her suite in q
higher rank-ladies in waiting, bed.
chamber women, etc.-many of the
queens dressers grew gray in her ser.
vice.
She always breakfasted privately.
From the commencement of her reign,
and notably after her marriage with
the prince consort, it is well-accred-
tied fact that Victoria would sign no
paper which was not a mere certif-
cate of an appointment or commits
sion unless she made herself &C.
quainted with the contents by having
them read and discussed in her hear
ing.
As . climax to the ordinary bust.
ness Of every lawful day at intervals
the queen received her ministers and
held her cabinet councils. Here, as
at her first council, she sat at the
head of the council board, the only
woman present.
She was the Oldest member of her
cabinet, and presided over every
government, Liberal or Conservative,
during her reign of upward of sixty
years.
If the real business of the queens
day-her household duties and her
official work-was dispatched quick
ly enough, she went out for donkey
drive in the grounds. Luncheon was
. less primitive meal than breakfast,
when the queen, ,'if SO disposed, met the
members of her household, the guests
staying at the palace, or the privileged
visitors who arrived for luncheon.

The residence OF c. r. Richart, on
North Iron Street was discovered to
be on fire Tuesday morning about
two O'Clock, but the flames had gained
such headway that it was impossible
to stay them. The fire companies
responded to the alarm quickly, but
not in time to save the building. The
house was story and half frame,
and was owned and occupied by Mr..
Richart and family. They were pre-
pairing to move to Wllliamsport, and
all their household goods were packed
ready for Shipment. Mrs. Richart
and her daughter had gone to William
sport on Monday and Mr.. Rlchart
remained here to look after the gools.
He was in the house until about
eleven o'clock, and then went to a
neighbor's to sleep. Three hours
later the fire broke out The only
fire in the house was IN the kitchen
range, and that had nearly burned Out
at O o'clock. The fire seems to have
started in a small out-kitchen, and
can be accounted for only by the
theory that 1t was Intentionally done
The household goods were all destroy

quantities. He has samples OF ore
taken from these premises that are
rich in mineral. He also has certif-
Gates OF analysis showing over 33 per
cent of copper, and nearly 4 ounces
of silver per ton, while other samples
of ore show 9 ounces of silver per ton
and a trace of gold. Mr.. Taylor de-
sires to sell a one-fourth interest in
his lease, which he values at $4,000.
The money will be used in developing
the property, and from the analysis
it would seem that there can be nc
doubt but what it will prove paying
investment. The one fourth interes
will be sold as desned. either as
