on a great strain for many days and
nights, and this rich mans evident
hesitation to incur any financial loss
to save life iTritated him. 1t was mad
dening to Gordon to realize as he had
in the short time he had been at Hope
House, the INSTRUCTED energies of
money makers. The love Of humanity
with which he had begun his knight
hood was already such passion in
him that it leaped with giant bounds
over all smaller objects. He was not
able to realize the slow steps with
which such men as Mr.. Marsh have to
be coaXed and terrified and even
driven toward little philanthropy.
John Gordon was beginning to have
the same absence of feeling for indif
ference toward social needs that per-
fectly sound physical nature has to-
ward confirmed dyspeptic or hypo-
chondriac. The logic of the situation
around Hope House was so absolutely
thought out to John GordOns mind
that any slow, cautious, hesitating
steps toward Il conclusion seemed like

"Ill do something, Of course: I'll do
something" Mr.. Marsh said apollo
getically.
"When? What?"
81 SUPPOSE
Gordon interrupted, not with excite,
ment, but calmly:
''This is your life opportunity Mr..
Marsh. Tell me frankly, if you were
to donate to Hope House outright the
property where No. 81 stood for park
purposes would it seriously cripple
your business"
mo, l don't think it would cripple
me-"
'Then, will you give US that much? 2"
Gordon asked boldly and almost blunt
ly. But he was not in any mood to
wait or coax.
do you know how much that prop
erty is worth?"
'No'
at cost me $4,000 to buy the lots
and put up the tenement" Mr.. Marsh
s0id imperiously.
John Gordon was silent.

donate $4,000 to Hope House"
"Minus the insurance on No. o."
said John Gordon quietly.
ut was insured for $GOO0O," Mr..
Marsh said, while his face grew a lit
tie red.
Gordon made no remark, and Mr..
Marsh fidgeted in his chair and drum
med with his fingers on the edge of the
table.
why would it not be better to put
" a model tenement on the lots?"
"A park would do more good"
"8ut the people who were burned
out
"They must be cared for, that is
true. The interest excited by the ca
lamity may lead to the tearing down
of other areas and the building of good
tenements. But park the size of the
whole burned area would be Of more
value to Hope House than even such
model tenement as you might put up
in place of No. o."
There was silence again. Mr.. Marsh
got up and went into the bank. He
was gone several minutes, Gordon
never moved. When Marsh came back,
he brought some papers.
"I'll have the property made oyer to
Hope House." he said briefly.

The weeping willow tree came 10
America through the medium or Alex
ander Pope, the poet, who planted Il
willow twig on the banks of the Thames
at his Twickenham villa. The twig
came to him in box Of figs sent from
Smyrna by IA friend who had lost all in
the south sea bubble and had gone 10
that distant land to recoup his fortunes.
A young British officer who came TO
Boston with the army to crush the re-
bellion Of the American colonies brought
with him twig from Pope's now beau

in America when he should comforta'

from the conquered Americans. The
young officer, disappointed in these ex'
pectations, gave his willow twig, wrap

Mrs. Washington's son, who planted II
on his Abingdon estate, in Virginia. II
thrived and became the progenitor OF
all our willow trees.

The Heat OF Lava.

The lava streams from the eruption
of Vesuvius in 1858 were so hot twelve
years later that steam issued frol9
their cracks and crevices. Those thai
flowed from Etna in 1877 were found
to be steaming hot just below the cru$i
as late as 1910. The volcano Jorullo,
in Mexico, poured forth in 1859 lava
that eighty-sevcn years later gave Off

English Deer Hunting.

The running of the deer begins IN
November. and it is said they often
take as keen an interest in the hunt as
their pursuers. The hounds are never
allowed to kill them, and the same
ones are often run for several success
sive years. twenty-five of the heiferS
and does are selected for the season:
sport. and two are usually run in q
week. The one chosen for the day Is
drawn in a queer looking two wheeled
covered cart to the appointed place.
The back of the cart is lowered until
it is level with the ground. When the
door is opened. the deer steps out, shifts
the air, with his head up, and takes
sweeping glance around before he is
away like a shot. He Is given five
minutes "law," while the well trained
hounds and horses stand trembl1ngly
impatient to be off in pursr't.
The old English staghounds have be,
come extinct, and foXhounds. bred for
the purpose of the chase, have sue
ceeded them. So feet are they that
the horses become jaded in their ef
forts to keep up With them.-Century
