Mr.. Shipman found this duty much

Mr.. Shipman was compelled to send
all TO Gen Miles. sending with them

Charge Is Made That "The Marseii-
laise" Was of German Origin.
The world has heretofore given to
Rouget De rIsle the honor of having
composed both the words and music of
the "MarseillaiSe," but Karl Blind in a
recent article endeavOrS to rob him of
that distinction. 1t appears. according
to Blind, that the melody was really
composed in Germany and was the tune
of the rcredo" of an old mass. The
mass in question was written in lTT6
by HOFFMAN, the kapellmeister of the
Palatinate and the original was dis
covered by Mr. HANNA in the musical
library of the towns church at Meers-
burg. From the Palatinate. where
HOltZmann composed the air. ii is not
a far cry to AlSace, and from Alsace
the music easily got into other parts
of France, 1t appears. then, that Rou-
get DE rIsle only wrote the words of
the "Marseillaise'' and set them to the
s-9ld mass tune, introducing quickened
tempo for the purpose Of martial effect
in battle song.
G. A. Sala about eight years ago
wrote in a London paper that the emf
nent French musical critic, NJ. Castil-
Blaze. in his work entitled "MoleFe,
Musician" published in 1852, absolute
ly denies that Rouget dc lIsle wrote
the music of the "MaTseillaiSe, He as

tempo church airs and secular airs are
often interchanged, but 1t is Il curious
thing that the great battle and revolu-
tionary song of France should really
have been composed in Germany.

The Pursuit of Happiness.

All who run after the gilded chariot
of joy get covered with dust, and are
left limping along the road quite be-
reft of that degree of comfort with
which they started on the mad race.
Yet sometimes, when the quest for
ones own happiness is quite out of
mind, when one is absorbed in making
some one else happy, down like a biro
from the highest heavens comes joy,
and settles as if at home, in the heart
that has forgotten itself.
Happiness is never touched by the
hand that reaches out for it too eager
". 1t flies into some hand open to
give, not stretched out to receive.
The angels always appear unexpect-
eddy, as did the angel who sat by the
tomb when Mary visited it at dawn.
Going out to mourn, she was met by
unimaginable joy.
How often does the long anticipated
feast turn out to be a famine, gaiety
having fed from the house overborne
by much ponderous preparation.
He who seeks happiness for its own
sake shall lose it, and he who loses
happiness for another's sake shall find
it, even in the hour when he thinks it
is gone from him forever, and is con-
tent to have it so.-Woman's Home

BUILDING A SCHOONER.
| How Southern Man Became the
Owner of a Large Yacht.


| planned a schooner yacht of
ocean-going tonnage, yet of such light
draught she could find her way amid
the labyrintns of sand shoals, mud
fats, marshes and creeks that make
the home of the wild-fowl in tidewater
Virginia.
Five things l tried to express in
this boat-solid comfort, safety,
economy, utility and beauty l plan
ned her eighty feet long, twenty feet
beam and three feet draught, and the
lowest estimate l could get on her in
New York and vicinity was eleven
thousand dollars without sails. This
sum was beyond my purse. I came
down to the Chesapeake and found an
efficient builder of merchant work
boats. He built her hull. Her iron
and brass work / had done in New
York, and her sails were made at
Crisfield. When she was finished and
launched she had cost me thirty-five
hundred dollars and l put naphtha
tender on her davits at an additional
cost of six hundred dollars.
This Buckeye rig gave me the most
economical yacht that could be built.
1t only costs thirty dollars TO put a
new set of running rigging on her,
and l never hire more than two men
and a boy for the crew. l pay one of
these men, the first mate, fifty dollars
month. He is an experienced sea-
dog and an expert hunter and guide.
The cook, the second man, costs six
teen dollars a month, and a cabin boy
six dollars. We can keep her in COM
mission six months of the year at a
total cost, including provisions, OF
seven hundred and fifty dollars, which
is cheaper than we can live ashore.
Such craft is the most useful
boat any man can build. She will 60
into more places and do more things
than any other boat of her size
afoat. She is so powerfully built
that she stands up straight on a sand
bar or mud fiat as comfortably as
afioat and without damage. We can
anchor on the feeuIng grounds of wild
FOWL where the tide leaves her high
and dry twice day, and stay as long
as we like. She is a powerful sea
boat when she drops her center board
and draws ten feet of water, and ii
overtaken in such a storm at sea that
she could not live, she can lift her
BOARD in three feet of water, walk up
on the beach, and land her pass engers
in safety to them, if she lose her own
life
