The Father Of American Coli.

Robert Lockhart, New York linen
merchant. who died recently in his
native Scotland, may well be spoken
of with reverence and gratitude on
every links IN this country, for he
was COLTS missionary to the United
States. He arrived in New York when
he was 20 Years old. He was devoted
to tennis. in its brief term of favor.
and when that wanted he brought
back from trip to Scotland two sets
of golf clubs, from Tom Morris, called
"the grand old man of Scottish golf."
He brought his neighbors together I'M
der an apple tree in Yonkers, instruct
ed them in the game, exhibited its
points in action, and the "Apple-tree
gang" soon formed the st. Andrews
Golf club, the first in this country.
And American golfers will go out OF
their way, when visiting the other
side, to see the tomb of Robert Lock
hart in Dunfermline abbey.

Adventures Of rhousand-Frane Mote.

Adventures of Thousand-Frane Note.
A lady passing down the Rue Rich
ellen had the misfortune to lose a
pocketbook containing, among other
valuables, a 1,0OO-franc note. The
pocketbook was picked up by a chair
member named Renaud, who lives at
Montreaux; and he placed it very
carefully in his pocket and proceeded
home. 1t is not often that a chair
member has occasion to change a note
for that amount, and Renaud, recog-
nizing the impossibility of turning it
into gold without detection, agreed
with friend to do the business for
the consideration of 100 francs.
This friend, Lucien Mathern, also a
chair member, was in his turn filled
with apprehension. The difficulty was
solved by the aid of a horticultural,
named Simmonnet, who kindly con-
scented to buy himself horse for 300
francs and return the change. Renaud
thus became richer by 500 francs All
might have gone well if, two days
later, 1t had not been discovered that
the horse had been stolen from deal
er at Meaux. This lea to the arrest
of the trio. and later in the day the
police put their hands on the horse

and a companion entered the place
and did some pistol practice with the

the second shot the practice was
brought to a sudden close by groans
coming from under the bench. The
young men found Lawrence writing
in pain from a wound in the abdomen.
The man was taken to the hospital.
where he died.

Sailors Of Different NatIonaIIties Vary

The privilege of keeping pets is
very much appreciated by bluejackets,
who lavish their spare time and cash
on some very strange animals. The
British warship Centurion once had a
monkey that used to eat with spoon
from plate and drink from glass,
with dinner napkin tucked under
his chin the while The Caesar had
a pet goose some time back. Cats
and dogs, of course, are common on
board ship. The French warship Mar
ceau had a bantam cock named Bou-
LANCER as pet, which crowed whenever
The guns were fired. The German
Prinz Wilhelm had a grey stork, and
the United States Chicago had pig.
Doves, pigeons, blackbirds and pea.
cocks are popular with Italian sea
men, and the unfortunate Almirante
Oquendo Of Spain had pair of casso-
varies as pets.
