LINCOLN AND LONDON.
The Tower Dedicated to Our President
in One of Eng1and's Churches.


"With charity for all and malice to-
ward none''-these well-known words
of the great. brave. sagacious Lincoln
appear in large lettering in the creed
of Christ Church, Westminster road.
1t is fitting, then, that the imposing
tower of this superb structure, costing
over Esq., 1000 (S31O,O0O), should be dedi-
Gated to the liberator of a race. Row.
land Hill, whose name is linked with
the worlds great preachers, founded
Surrey Chapel eighteen years before
the close of the eighteenth century.
Newman Hall was one Of his success
sors, and under his leadership the
church secured this splendid temple
and center of Christian service. When
the building was still in the hands of
the architects, DR.. Hall conceived the
idea Of dedicating the tower to Abra-
ham Lincoln, the martyred President
of the United States; and to-day with
in the tower you may read tho follow
ing inscriptions:
LINCOLN TOWER.
Inaugurated 4th July, A. D. 1876, by
Sir Thomas Fowell Buxton Bart.
The memorial stone was laid 9th July,

buttons obtained by the

DOGS memory of a Bee sting.

Something must have stung your
dog said a resident of this city to a
suburbanite, whom he was visiting a
few days ago, as he noticed the antics
of a large collie which, after swapping
frantically at a flying insect, lowered
his head and carefully licked his right
forepaw.
mo" replied the owner of the dog,
that is only a little delusion of his.
When he was a puppy a bee stung him
ON that foot you see him attending to,
and ever since he has cherished a
standing grudge against flying insects.
Apparently the sight of one not only
arouses his anger, but recalls most
wildly his first experience with one,
for each time after running after one,
whether he catches it or not, he stops
and tenderly ticks the place where he
was stung two years ago. AS far as /
know he has never been stung since
then."-Philadelphia Press.

CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL.
Only One English King, Henry w..
Has Been EntOmbed There.

Has Been Entombed There.
The ancient cathedral at Canterbury
shelters the remains of only ONE Eng
lish king, Henry ". That his par
ticular monarch should have been en-
tombed there Is the more remarkable
since he breathed his last in the Jeru-
salem chamber of Westminster abbey,
and it might naturally have been sup
posed in the circumstances thai he
would have been laid to rest In the alb
bey. where so many other of England's
kings sleep their last sleep. 1t seems,
however, that Henry before his death
gave orders that he was to be buried
in the cathedral at Canterbury oppo'
site the tomb of his uncle, Edward,
the Black Prince.
For hundreds of years a story was
current that on the way down the rlv-
er a hurricane arose n that he peo-
pie on board the vessel, convinced that
the storm was caused by the fact that
a kings body was on board, cast the
corpse into the water in the dead OF
night and, filling the coffin with rub
Dish, brought it with all pomp and cir
cumstance to the cathedral. Some
years ago the dean and chapter resolv-
ed to get at the truth of the story.
So they opened the royal tomb and
the kings lead coffin. For n brief
moment dean and chapter gazed upon
the kingly lineaments of that monarch
whom Shakespeare describes as "sky
aspiring Bolingbroke." Only for a mo-
ment. however, as the body crumbled
to dust almost at once. But Canter-
bury now knows beyond all doubt that
an English king rests within its walls.

COED TO WE'D

Romance Which Started in Bucknell
University Glass Room Will Gull

Philadelphia Inquirer, Dec. "a, 1904.
A romance which began two years
ago at Bucknell University will cul-
inmate to-day in the marriage OF MISS
Grace Browning Roberts, who was
formerly a coed at that institution, II
Professor Enoch Perrine, who occupies
the endowed chair of English literature
at the university. A warm friendship
sprang up between Miss Roberts ana
her instructor while she attended Buck
nell which rapidly grew into a love
affair, but so quietly was the courtship
carried on that the announcement OF
the engagement, which was made
public soon after the closing of the
college term last year, when Miss
Roberts graduated, came as a complete
surprise to the hosts of students and
friends.
Miss Roberts, who is 25 years of age,
is the daughter of Rev. DR.. and Mrs. ID.
Roberts, of 1922 North Franklin street,
and a granddaughter of Rev. DIR. B. L..
Agnew, secretary of the Board of Relief
of the Presbyterian church. Professor
Perrine has been a widower since
August, 1903, and is 81 years old. The
position which he occupies at the
university is considered to be next in
importance to that of the presidency of
the college. He has occupied the en-
dowed chair of English literature for a
number of years.
The wedding will take place at noon
to-day at the Roosevelt and will be at
tended by only the family and most
intimate friends. The ceremony will be
performed by the BRIDES grandfather,
Rev. DIR B. L.. Agnew, who will be
assisted by DIR. John h. Harris, presi-
dent of Bucknell University. A we'd
ding breakfast will re served immediate
ly after the ceremony and the bridal
couple will start on an extended tour
abroad.

DID HIS BEST.
He Brought the Only Cant Hook
That He Could Find.

That He Could Find.
If the report of the Fulton Gazette Is
true a Missouri farmer, accompanied
by several of his hired men, went into
the woods one morning in the fall of
the year to cut down some trees. When
about to begin work it was discovered
that the cant hook had been left be-
hind. Turning to one of the men, an
Irishman not very long over, the farm
er instructed him to drive back to the
barn for the missing tool. The Irish
man did not know what a cant hook
looked like, but was ayerse to exposing
his ignorance, so drove off on his err
rand, trusting to find some one at the
farm who would enlighten him.
At the barn, however, there was no
one to help him out of his dilemma.
Casting his eyes about the place for
the thing that would be most likely
to bear the name of cant hook" he
saw a mulley COW with never a sign of
a horn upon it's head and concluded
1t was what he had been sent for.
Procuring a rope he fastened b cow
to the real end of his vehicle and ex-
ultingly drove back to the woods.
"What the Sam Hill have you got
there?" shouted the farmer on seeing
his messenger and the cow. Il sent
you for the AN hook to use in moving
the logs. What have you brought that
COW for?"
"Be jabers, boss, divil another thing
could | see around the barn that can't
hook but this"

Large Fruit Crop Expected

The state horticultural commits
sioner, A. Van Holderbeke, predicts
that Washington will produce the
banner fruit crop in its history the
present year. The comparatively
late spring and heavy snowfall in the
eastern and Central portions of the
state is regarded as very favorable,
keeping the buds back to prevent
damage from late frosts and insuring
AN abundance of new orchards com
ing into bearing, and the output of
fruit will probably break all previous
records.

Herbert w. Kent, of Vancouver,
general superintendent of the N. w.
& B, |. T. Co., accompanied by Capt.
Bridgeman, also of Vancouver, has
been here and. has visited other
points in the county to make pre-
liminary examination of the propos-
ed route, which Mr.. Kent frankly
says they much prefer to the gulf
route, which would be entirely in Ca
madam waters. 1t seems that he is
not in full accord with Mr.. Lain's
proposition to sell service coupons.
He had with him samples of cables,
one of American and one of English
make, and the great superiority of
the latter is so manifest that the
company's preference for it can be
very readily accounted for on grounds
of utility alone. If our government
can be induced to rebate the duty
upon it, or give a bonus sufficient to
Offset the duty, he says the cable will
be laid this way without asking any
local assistance from this county or
any individuals. The duty would be
from 81, 900 to so, 600.
