FAMOUS BATTLE SONGS.
Two Instances where the Tide Was
Turned by Singing TheIl.


Turned by Singing Them.
There are two instances on record Of
battle being won by war song In
the fifth century Germanus. bishop of
Auxerre, and Lupus, bishop of Troyes,
were sent into Britain to refute the
doctrines of Pelagius. During their
stay in this island the Picts and Scots,
been withdrawn, commenced hostili-
ties and drove the Britons from the
northern to the more southern parts of
the island. Germanus, at the request
of the hard pressed islanders led them
against the Picts and Scots, who had
advanced as far as Mold. in Flintshire
The bishop, having been a military
commander in his YOUTH placed his
men in an advantageous position and
then started one of the songs of the
church. This song began at the COM
mencement Of the battle, and SO vocif-
erously did the Britons sing the re
frain, "Halle1uiah,s that the hills, ech-
DING with the sound, terrified their en-
em1es and caused them to fee in all di-
rections. This was called the hallelu-
iah victory. The date is fixed by all
historians at A. D. 429.
The second instance occurred on the
9th Of November, 1902, when the
French, under Dumouriez, encountered
the Austrians at Jemmapes, In Belgi-
um. The day was going dead against
the French, when Dumouriez ran out
to the front and raised the "Marseil-
laise." Forty thousand voices instantly
j took up the chorus, and, inspired by
the magic of the battle song, the
French rallied and fell SO furiously
upon the Austrians that the tide OF
4 battle was completely turned and vic.
tory given for defeat.-Pearson's Week.

HAWTHoRNE's WORKS.
The High Standard They Have Set
For American literature

For American Literature.
Two things are to be remembered
when Hawthorne's name is mentioned
First, the glory he reflects upon Amer
lean literature. Little has been done
by us in letters or art that is quite of
the highest order except the works Of
Hawthorne. These have the clear
promise of perpetuity. The themes are
Of supreme and universal moment. He
rises to their meaning and depicts them
in commensurate form. He is not a
preacher to cry aloud, but an artist
who paints, yet not without heart
that throbs in pity and fancy that
muses. over the wonder of it and will
not suffer the pail of darkness to hang
over it forever That we have in Haw-
thorne an author whose work in these
high fields OF thought is crowned with
unimpeachable honor and is sure of
perpetual remembrance is constant
satisfaction as years go by.
But Hawthorne has a wider claim
upon our atitude-namely, the fact
that he has set the seal Of glorious
dcuIefemeHL III leLLSiS uPoH eAe Hoid1
laws Of our nature. The greatest
things done In literature have been of
this sort. They alone, from Job down,
are remembered and cherished in the
ages. Hawthorne is our only exponent
of genius in this field, and how superb
ly has he flied 1t! His message is that
Of Dante and st. Paul and all great
moralists-whateyer man does to an.
other he does to himself, whether it be
good or evil. Men will forever dwell
in this truth and will never forget
those gifted souls who see it clearly
and set 1t forth in perfect forms of lit
erary art.-Cantury.

Radiant Tropical Birds.
There are about seyen species OF
damingoes inhabitinG the tropical parts
Of both hemlspheres, three of which
are IN America, frequenting the BAHIA
mas, Florida and Cuba. In height the
bird averages about five feet, and il its
curved neck were stretched to its full
length it would tower above the head
Of an ordinary man. Flamingoes breed
in May and June. AT this period their
bright colored plumage is faded. 1t as,
sImes its most radiant hues in winter.
When first hatched, the young have
straight bill, which after time de-
velops into one OF bent shape. Their
drst plumage is grayish white and
passes through various tints of pink,
rose, carmine or yermilion to the full
scarlet of the adult, which reaches its
deepest shade on the wings. Several
years are necessary to perfect the
fnal gaudy plumage.
The eggs are white, showing blue
hnge when scraped under the surface
They are long, oval and have thick
shell, equaling in size that of the COM
mon goose. The flesh is not palatable
to the taste, being extremely oily.
They feed upon both animal and vege-
table matter from the ooze and soft
bottoms of the shallow waters and
lagoons selected by them both as a
feeding ground and nesting place.
When flying, their long legs are stretch
ed out behind and the neck becomes
straight. They have a peculiar voice
and sort Of one syllable outcry.
which they utter as an alarm signal
the moment they are approached or
believe themselves to be in danger.
On account Of their keen eyed and
wary nature it is almost impossible to
get within close range Of them. They
walk with slow and cautious tread.

A QUEER COACH ROAD.

4assengers Pay Their Fare and
Work Their Way as Well.
In the old days of canal voyaging
captains of boats were not infrequently
asked to give a wayfarer a lift The
man was asked If he was willing to
work his passage. If he said Yes" he
was put to work driving the horses. In
Europe, it seems, similar custom is
practiced on paying coach passengers
In the Pyrenees there is a coach r3,li
between two villages, one on each side
OF q mountain 10000 feet high. After
the coach has proceeded little dis
tance and reached the steep part of the
ascent the conductor begs the passen-
gers to get out so as to ease tile Eorses
They are even requested push be-
hind and help the poor animals to drag
the huge vehicle uphill.
When at last the summit is reached
the traveller wiping from his forehead
drops Of sweat as big as kidney beans,
congratulates himself on the breezy
ride down the steep slopes Of the de-
scent which awaits him.
There is where he makes mistake,
for the conductor, with sweet smile,
begs the gentlemen to be kind enough
to hang on to the coach behind and act
the part of Westinghouse air brake
or else the horses may be injured.
In this manner the terminus Of the
line is reached, the passengers having
pushed the coach all the way up one
side Of the mountain and held it back
all the way down the other.
In spite of this there is rush for
places on the coach daily, as there has
been for half century.-Spare Mo-
