Gladstone and Irving.

Mr.. Gladstone was great admirer
and never missed an opportunity of
seeing Irving in one Of his great char
acters. 1t CHANGED that after being
present at the first night of Ravens
wood" presented in September, 1890,
I had occasion to post off to Edin-
burgh to chronicle the proceedings in
the penultimatc Midlothian campaign.
At dinner on the night OF my arriva11
had the good fortune to find myself
seated next to Mr. Gladstone. 1t was
a time of great storm and stress in
the political world. Mr.. Gladstone
was leading the attack upon the Gov
ernmcnt which resulted in their deftNt
at the general election two years late...
When he heard that had been at the
first night of "Ravenswood" all other
topics were set aside. He overwhelm-
ed me with torrent of questions as to
how Irving had worked out particular
episodes. Il remember lie was par
ticularly anxious to know how the final
scene, where the hat of the drowned
Ravenswood is found forlorn on the
sands, was staged. He told me that
of all Scott's novels he most admired

Breathe THROUGH Your Nose.

In all kinds of atmosphere the
breath should only be inhaled through
the nose. An occasional breath of eX-
ira pure air through the mouth may be
good; but in cars and IN most Offices
and rooms nose breathing is essential.
A second rule is, since SO much time
is spent in cars and offices and rooms
In earning livelihood, and since these
places are overheated and under ven
tilatcd-the heating and ventilation
being left to the control of most of us
we mist take in fresh air whenever
possible, in order that Ne may restore
the balance. The best times to do
this will be early in the morning, when
the air is freshest. and late. night,
when deep breathing will help us to
get sleep. We may breathe correctly
while we are waiting in street. and
especially where streets meet We
can soon form an automatic habit of
breathing properly on such occasions.

STEEL RAILROAD TIES.
They Are Far More Commonly Used In
Europe Thnn in tho United States.

They Are Far Moro Commonly Used in
Europe Than in tho United States.
"Steel ties" said a railroad man,
(Which. as 10 width and length, are q
ordinary tie dimensions, are made OF
steel about three-eighths of an inch in
thickness pressed into trough shape;
and are laid with the convex side up
The rail is secured to the tie by means
of clip. passing through hole
punched in the tie, and fastening over
the flanges of the rail.
steel ties are far more commonly
used in Europe than they are here, This
being especially true as Ito Italy,
France and Germany, and most partic-
ularly so as to Italy, where many steel
tics are used.
wood is more costly in Europe
than here, and is used with greater
economy. Hero we drive the spikes
into wooden railroad ties, with more
or less danger of splitting them, and
with q consequent increased liability
to deterioration. In Europe they bore
holes first in which 10 drive the spikes,
and wooden tics are treated also with
some wood-prescrving process, as is
commonly done there, also with tele-
graph poles. fence posts, and wood in
other forms in similarly exposed sit
uations.
Here, while wood is dearer than it
was, and ties cost more than formerly
did, and we are using now more or less
tics of soft wood. wnare We never used
to think of using any but hard wood,
yet wooden Ties are still less expensive
than steel. And while mere preserv..
ing plants arc now being established.
still we cannot be said to have reached
yet in this country the stage of the
economical use of wood
"And thus the comparatively limited
use of steel ties here-I doubt If there
are laid in this country hundred
miles of them yet. altogether-which is
here more experimental" New York
Sun.

Ice Instead OF Dynamite.

A notable quarrying feat has just
been accomplished at the Rubinshaw
granite quarries, Aberdeen. A large
stone had been drilled ready for split
ting. when the thought struck the fore
man that nature might aid in the OBJ
iect to be attained. The~idea being
suggested by the severe frost that pre-
vailed. Water was poured into each
of the drill holes, ard it was founl
after a couple Of days that the block
of granite had completely burst open.
An idea of the immense power of
frost will be gathered when it is stated
that the stone thus detached has
weight of about SIX tons.

RERATED FOR HIS HONESTY.
Peculiar Way In Which the Sultan
Treats His Officials.

Said Pasha. the grand vizier of Tur-
key, is believed to be an honest man
He Is one of the few prominent off,
cials Of the government who has not
amassed fortune while in office. For
that and other reasons he has many
bitter and revengeful enemies. Six
years ago. when he was grand vizier,
he endeavored to punish certain in
fluential pashas for robbing the gov
ernment. They engaged in con-
spiracy against him and got the car of
the Sultan. He believed their state
ments, and sent the Kapu-aghasi, chief
of the white cunuchs and first officer
Of the imperial bed chamber-the Sui
tan's most confidential man-to sum.
mon Said Pasba to his presence. The
Kapu-aghasi is always an unwelcome
messenger, because the Sultan trusts
him when he will tr''ct nobody else
When he carries message it has un-
usual significance.
Said Pasha understood the situa-
tion, and, instead Of going to the pal.
ace, sought an asylum at the British
embassy, where Lord Dnfferin, then
ambassador, gave him protection. No
body knew what had become Of the
grand rizier until after seven days,
when he sent a carefully prepared re-
port Of his proceedings and the mo.
tive for conspiracy against him to the
Sultan by the hand of the British am.
bassador. The latter explained to the
Sultan his ideas of the case, and
vouched for Said Pasha as an honest,
truthful and loyal man. The Sultan
was not convinced, but agreed to &C.
cept Said Pasha's resignation without
further proceedings, and gave for
NAL assurance that If his former
Prime Minister left the embassy and
returned to his own home ne would
not be injured. Lord Dufferin notified
the Sultan that the British govern
meDt would hold him responsible for
any injury that Said Pasha might suf-
fer, and that in case Of his death not
even plea Of sickness would be ac-
cepted.
From that hour Said Pasha was the
safest man in Turkey. The Sultan
sent his own physician and two of his
most trusted aids-de-camp to live in
his house to protect him, and adopt
ing Lord Dufferin's suggestion, made
an investigation of the charges against
him. Nobody knows how he got at
the facts, but he executed some of his
new favorites, sent others into exile
and finally restored Said Pasha to
power He is still Prime Minister

but evidently he must have ben quite
close-sometimes, no doubt, between
the furious brutes. Besides these o0-
vious risks, there was a strong prob
ability that he might strike his antag-
onist's horse, or even the antagonist
himself, and, whether this were done
by accident or by an impulse OF pas
sion, signified little. In either case the
blow must be avenged. unless the RI
walls were personal friends. A certain
Eygulf hit his own stallion, and the
stick, rebounding, hit Bjarnis shoulder
showing, by the way, how very close
they must have been, horses and men,
in the heat of the fray.
He instantly apologized, offering 10
sheep if Bjarni would overlook the ac-
cident, and The latter replied that it
was his own fault; for there was no ILL
feeling between them. But, Of course,
he expected the sheep. In due time Ey-
gulf locked them out, and Bjarni came
to receive them. Thermod, Eygulfs
father was present, and remarked,
quite mildly, as we should think, that
60 sheep were a "lot." Actually no
moro than that-but Bjarni struck him
dead. A bic ,e'ld followed But it

ing fellow" struck Greti, who, diving
under his horse, which was on its
hind legs, delivered such a thrust that
he knocked Odd into the river, break
ing three of his ribs. The result was
a small civil war; Thus. horse fights
often ended in man fights. But that

Havana's Most Famous Theatre Was
Founded on Flood Money.
The Tacon theatre, in Havana, one
Of the largest and most famous in the
western hemisphere, was built by an
old reprobate, Marti, who was a no.
torious pirate in his day, and obtained
immunity for himself by betraying his
comrades into the hands of the Span
ish authorities, says the Army and
Navy Journal. One dark and rainy
night Marti slipped by the sentry
guarding the palace in Havana and en-
tered the apartments of the captain
general, who was writing at a table.
When the captain-geHeral raised his
eyes and saw the cloaked figure before
him, he reached for the bell. Stop,

every pirate on the Cuban coast upon
one condition, q pardon for myself"
"You shall have it" was the answer,
"but who are you?" Il am Marti, and
I rely upon the promise you have CIV
en- me.
Preparatory to this interview Marti
had appointed rendezvous for the
different bands, to which he conducted
the Spanish force, and every pirate
was captured and righteously garroteG.
AS for Marti. he was not only par
doned, but was given monopoly Of
the sale of fish in Havana, which made
him a rich, and thus an eminently re-
spected citizen, who ended his days in
the odor of sanctity. 1t will be rcmem
bered that another famous buccaneer,
the Welshman, Henry Morgan, showed
such remarkable military talent that
he was knighted by Charles H., and
made governor of Jamaica, which he
had previously captured.
