The Man From Whom Mrs. Stanton In

The Nan From Whom Mrs. Stanton In
herited Her Militant Character.
It is not generally known that Eliza
beth Cady Stanton was grandchild
of that Colonel James Livingston
whose independent action while in COM
mand of the batteries at West Point
rendered Benedict ArnoId's treason
fruitless, and proved the turning point
in the Revolutionary cause. Yet such
is the fact, her mother, Margaret Liv-
ingston, woman of great beauty and
self-reliant character, being daughter
Of that energetic young artillery officer
who fired on the British sloop-of-war
Vulture.
Colonel Livingston was stationed at
West Point when Benedict Arnold
| made the attempt to deliver that
stronghold into the hands of the en-
envy. In the absence of his superior
officer, he took the responsibility Of
firing into the Vulture, a suspicious
looking British vessel that lay at
anchor near the opposite bank of the
Hudson River. 1t was fatal shot for
Major Andre, with whom General Ar
mold was then in direct communica.

treason he had contemplated for many

with his papers, to be captured by an
outpost of American irregulars, while
General Arnold made his escape
through the lines before his treason
was suspected.
On General Washington's arrival at
West Point he sent for Colonel Living
ston and reprimanded him for acting
in so important matter without or
ders, thereby making himself liable to
court-martial; but, after fully Impress
ing the young officer with the danger
of such self-sufffciency in ordinary oc-
casions. he admitted that most for
tunate shot had been sent into the
Vulture. 1--WE are in no condition." he
explained, after ending his military
admonition, ito defend ourselves
against the British forces now quar-
tered in New York, and the capture of
Major Andre has saved u.s."

rub up mustard plaster to perfection
in the quickest possible time. And
bind up hurt finger and heal any irri-
tation to the feelings in way that
was an art. Besides, she had a genius
for keeping track of the things in a
household apt to go astray. The mas

MUM receipts, ETC..
In many regards, however, she was
absurdly in the wake Of her self

She never would have dreamed of in

or having any money transactions
whatever without masculine assist
ance. In fact, she looked upon checks
and all business papers with awe as
entirely out Of her world. 1t is doubt
full If in her whole life she ever bought
a railway ticket or any other ticket
for herself, or made even the smallest
purchase without consulting some
body.
In her clinging dependence the old
maid was a tame sort Of creature COM

acter something akin to Thackeray's
Amelia, with the heart quality for a
dominating characteristic. Formed on
neutral, almost negative, lines, with
unobtrusiveness and unselfishness so
welded in together that it took familiar
acquaintance to appreciate her real
worth. The old maid living under the
protection of male relative would
have scorned to ask or receive pay for
her services as ardently as the bache.
lor woman nowadays would scorn the
giving of her work for nothing "The
laborer is worthy Of his hire" is the
bachelors belief. and the difference
between her creed and the old maids
is in the nature Of the compensation.
The old maid took out her pay in love
love that she lavished without
thought of return. And the value of
her ministrations. even if summed up
entire, could certainly never have been
paid for in any coin ever devised ~
The old maid believed in man as a
natural authority and ruler much more
firmly than the bachelor maid believes
in him to-day. Probably because the

Quickly and thoroughly he did his
work and the tree was stripped and
the toys divided among them in an in

With these words she left the room
and Godfrey turned back to complete
the ruin he had wrought.

The Next Paris Exposition.

1t is a far cry from the present date
to the year 1911. but already some of
the persons who are interested in such
matters are beginning to discuss the
chances of another great worlds show
being held in Paris then. After the
last big worlds show, with which
certain amount of disappointment was
mingled, the fashionable cry was that
there would not be another for long
while. But prediction one direction
would be a very risky business just
now. Those, however, who are in
favor of arepetition of the ventures are
pointing to the fact that during 1900

years are deposited in banks by means

visiting the exhibition. The inference
that all or most of the money was
spent in Paris seems fair enough, as
such statistics go. The last great

had been formed of it, but If the figures
which are now given are really accu-

and together in tragic silence they per-

For the last timer Godfrey told
himself as he helped her cold and
trembling fingers tie on the toys which
had been bought for little Reginald so
long before. 1t seemed monstrous that
these playthings, made for a child's
delight, could be thus perverted from
their purpose and used again and again
as instruments of torture for wom-

THE LARGEST WATCH.
Built Like the Most Delicate Pocket
Timepieee at an Enormous Cost.

T1mepleee at an Enormous Cost.
There has just been finished at the
American Waltham watch factory a
mammoth watch the largest in the world
To build this gigantic timepiece cost
several thousand dollars and several
weeks time. Special machinery and
tools were required for its construction.
The watch is a model of quarter plate
watch, enlarged ten times. perfect in
every detail and as highly finished as the
finest watch.
The diameter of the pillar plate is seven
teen inches. and the movement is two and
one-half inches thick. The balance wheel
is six and one-half inches in diameter and
the breguet spring which controls its ac-
ton is eight feet long, .0S of centimetre
thick and .25 of centimetre wide. When
running, the balance makes a vibration
in Z of second. The pallet stones are
OF sapphire and exquisitsly polished The
actuatins, or handspring. is twentythree
feet long II of n centimetre thick and
30 centimetres wide.
The mammoth model Is as completely
jeweled as a watch Of the finest Grade.
The plate jewels. which are as large as
the smallest movement made, or about
the size of a scent piece, are fine rubies,
about ten lines in diameter, but pushed
with sapphires. The polish of the
wheels, plnions and other steel work is
perfect and the damaseening on the
plates is most beautiful. The pendant
and winding crown are of fine bronze.
brilliantly polished. Every portion is
made on the exact scale of the watch 1t
represents No dial has been made for
this movement. as it is designed to show
not only tho action of the train, hut the

ism as well.
The moven emit stands OF a bronze pc
