BREAD AND BEER FREE.
Given Without Question or Price to
 Whoever Asks.

Connected with the Church of tho Holy Cross, near Winchester, England, is a charity hospital where a manchet of bread and a measure Of beer" have been given without question or price to everyone who has asked it for near 1y SGO years. The endowment which makes this possible is in better shaps than ever today, and the building usef for the purpose will no doubt last IS long as the old Normans and Transi- ton architecture of the times of the Conquest and later builders.
 Legend tells us that on the site or the hospital there existed a religious fraternity which perished after the Danish ravages. But the earliest rec ords Of the place are its mentions II two Dapal bulls, dated 1137 and 1144, respectively. confirming the endow- ments. the actual foundation having been made in 1136. The founder was Henry de BIois. bishop of Wincheste>, brother of King Stephen, their father being Stephen, Count of Blois.
 In making the grant, De Blois wrote: For the health of the souls of myself, my predecessors and the kings of Eng land. have newly instituted without the walls of Winchester, and forever to sustain thirteen poor, impotent men to be lodged, cared for, fed and nursec and properly so, another to be intro- duced as soon as any one shall be suf1l- ciently recovered as to be dismissed with comfort and respect. Over and above these thirteen, corresponding to the number of Christ and His apostles, 100 rien shall be provided with dinner in the hall daily and a manchet of bread and a measure of beer shall be given to all wayfarers presenting at the hospital to the end of time."- Ieslie's Weekly.

electing State Senator j. Frank
Alice (union republican, to the long
term senatorship which expires in

Ball Irregular republican, to the
short term, which ends in 1905. Alice
was congratulated by his colleagues,
and by the assembly generally. Con-
gresham Ball was in Washington

The result is regarded here as an
Addicks victory. Pressure brought
to bear upon the regular republicans

FLOOR OF THE PACIFIC.
Lofty Submarine Mountains Beside
Which the Andes Would Look
Like HillOcks.

If the waters of the Pacific could be
drained, there would be revealed vast
stretch of territory comprising enorm-
Gus plateaus, great valleys for which
no parallels exist on the land surface
lofty mountains, beside which the
Himalaya and the Andes would look
like hillocks, and tremendous hollows
.or basins, only to be compared with
those on the face of the moon, says Les
lies Monthly. ..@
While there are great mountains,
and huge basins or "deeps,' the pla-
teau areas are by far the most extern
sive. Relatively speaking, the floor Of
the Pacific as now at last revealed on
jhe pleateau areas, is level. There are
nndulations and depressions, but the
general area is about the same depth
below the surface.
Soundings develop mean depth Of
from $500 to 2,7OO fathoms. In shoaler
spots there is mean depth Of from
$500 to 2,400 fathoms. Deeper spots
show from $500 to 1900 fathoms.

Whatever the quality of American

cans buy more books than people of
any other nation. Put we are not

hints for the wealthy and cultivated,

A gentleman. he says. does not give
his daughter a dowry of half million
and forget to provide her with book
case. He does not have a full cellar
and empty book shelves. He does not
borrow good books which he is in a
position to buy.
A gentleman does not cut books with
his fingers or touch them with soiled
hands. He does not talk about the
latest literature when he is acquainted
only with what has been said about it
in the newspapers. He does not make
presents only of things which are with
out intellect ual value. .......-.. 49,.

LAND LOST TO TEXAS.
As Result OF the Recent Surveys Of
-' the Lone Star States Disputed
D .. Boundaries. s.. g..

'"Three portions of the boundary
Hines of the state of Texas are under
dispute, and in each instance the ter
ritory of the lone star state is cut
into," said Marshall T. Golden
ito Washington Star man, re-
gently. There was recently filed
in the land Office of the state
"a report of the work under the
act of congress requiring the secretary
sOf the interior to establish the Tooth
meridian which forms part of the
eastern boundary of Texas. 1t was at
first believed that Texas would gain
AN eight-mile strip from Indian terri
tory, but on the contrary, according
to the report, Texas will probably loose
"a strip three-quarters of a mile wide.
Should this report be considered as
final people holding property on what
was always considered the Texas side
will lose their title as Texas deed to
the land will not be legal.
1.-The same condition prevails along
the entire panhandle on the western
end of the state. Surveyors have fixed
the lO3d meridian so as to cut off strip
three miles wide, embracing 100000
acres, from the lone star state and it
has recently been brought to light that
New Mexico disputes the boundary line
extending from the westernmost point
eof Texas, and the lone star state is
about to lose more land to New Mex

The Danish minister of the interior
has stated that the government Of
Denmark will not be represented at
the st. Louis exposition. This means
that only q few Danes will send exhib-
it's to St. Louis.
The city council of Copenhagen has
made special appropriation of $13,-

for certain length of time. Great
care will be taken to have the money
distributed only among those who
really deserve it.
The Liberal party has suffered a
great defeat in the city council of
Copenhagen. Mr.. Rump, member of
the city council, had left the Liberal
party, which had elected him, and had
Joined the Social Democrats. The
Liberal members claimed that he
ought to lose his seat because he no
longer represented his constituents;
but as he did not resign of his own
accord a vote was taken. The result
was that only II votes were cast in
favor of BUSTING him, while those who
were in favor of keeping him muster
ed 10 votes. This victory for the So
cial Democrats forebodes the election

Copenhagen.

United States Navy's New Mes. Jaoke

United States N&vy's New Mess Jacket
 It is believed by the officers of the bureau of navigation that the new mess jacket just adopted for the navy will prove popular with the men, says the New York Commercial Advertiser. The jacket is similar in design to the one worn during the civil war, and its use by the men-of-war's men will again justify their description as "'blue- jackets" which is somewhat of a mis- homer as applied to their present uni- form of shirt and trousers of blue. The new jacket is loose fitting and is cut away more at the bottom than the old war jacket. It is intended to be worn principally on shore when the men are at liberty. It presents a neat appear ance and will give the men a more dressed up look than is possible with the present style of shirt tucked in trousers.

It Nas held in W0terloo's mammoth new eoncrete d1a1n pipe, said to be the Rrgest sewer constructed by any mu- Aicipality. Mayor F. J.

When the tewer was nearing completion 1t was lectded that the scheme was feasible, md it was determined to carry it out.
 The sewer Is 4,0oe feet long and was built at a total cost of $9O,OO0. In its construction 4O,O0o,0o0 feet of material Vere used.

 After many weeks of illness there l died at the family residence in Water town this morning one of the best known citizens in that village. John keilty was one of the pioneer, settlers in the Watertown district and one of the first of the Catholics to locate in this part of the state. It is estimated that at least fifty years of his life were passed in and around WatertoWn and the name of Keilty was as fe!nil> , jar one as any in any city or town ill the state. Respected by every per- son in the village he naturally had many friends, some of them the lead ing citizens in Watertown. His chil- dren were at his bedside continually when the fatal illness struck him and were present when he died at half-paS s this morning. He was 76 years of age and is survived by five children, John and Edward Keflty, Mrs Michael Brahan and Kate Kealty, all of Water town. and Mrs Walter B. Lannen of Waterbury. The funeral arrangements have not yet been made, but it will take place probably on Thursday morn ing.

The Hunting Season.

Iris now the modern Nimrods Put on their hunting togs And to the woods go hiking With guns and frisky dogs, For 'tis the open season,
 When they're allowed to slay The creatures of the forest
 That chance to come their ways For squirrel, quail and pheasant The hunters eyes are peeled As wearily they're trudging
 Through wooded tract and field, But often when they're seeing The signs of game appear They bump against a notice That says, Don't Trespass Here" Most bitterly they censure
 The grouchy farming man. And onward they go plodding As eagerly they scan. At last there's seen a movement Iris squirrel or a quail!- And shot are perforating
 A COW that wagged it's tail. Quite nasty is departure;
 In fact, 'tis speedy run Until mile is covered
 From where the deed was done There's sudden exclamation:
 Another "bang" Is heard, And in 8 horse Is lodging
 The charge that missed a bird. Again a reckless Nimrod
 Is sprinting far away, ys- We'll knowing If he fingers There'll be the deuce to pay. He later sees a pheasant; A ''bang" is heard again, And in the road is dropping
 A dead and mangled hen. Of course there are some hunters Who know just when to shoot, But many are the others
 Who blaze away, then scoot, And therefore 'tis no wonder
 That worried farmers knock And swear that all the gunners
 Make targets of their stock. Theodore H. Boice in Flttsburg Caron. Ml@~Talaaxanh-
