No Love Lost Between the Arnolds.

Edwin Arnold. Some years ago. he

Arnold on the banks of the little river
Test, near Romsey abbey. conversation
turned on Sir Edwin Arnold and The
Light of Asia published four or five
years previously. 1t is o necessary
to enter into Mr.. Arnold's opinion of
the poem. During the conversation |
took occasion to ask him if he We're
related to Sir Edwin. He paused a
moment, as if shocked at the sugges-
ton, and then said: No. we are not OF
kin. Indeed. l doubt If he had any
right to the name of Arnold. | have
been told that he is of Jewish descent
A few weeks later l happened to meet
Sir Edwin at a dinner in London and,
prompted by, l hope, a not unpardon-
able curiosity, ~propounded a similar
query to him. No. he replied quickly,
with what seemed a shade Of asperity
in his tone. I am not related to Mat
thew Arnold. We are of wholly differ
ent families Then, his face breaking
into his peculiar smile, he added:
Matthew Arnctd is an intellectual
dyspeptic. His brain does not digest

The Summer Season.

When one reflects upon the delightful weather which pre-. vailed so generally in October, says Four-Tfack News, and the even more perfect weather in No. vember, it naturally calls forth the query, "why do we call the sum- mer season from July to Sep tember Il" It is absurd! June and september-even October and often November gives us more delightful weather than July and August. I, for one, vote unani. mously for a longer summer sea, son, for a fuller period in which to enjoy the beauties of nature, for nature is so varied in her moods, and so lavish with her charms that she deserves more of our attention, and the more atten. tion we bestow the more we learn to admire her every phase and fancy, and the more we admire the better off we are, for every in fluence which nature e erts is for the good. @

SIGNS OF EARLY SPRING.
Some Seen by Prof. Won Jogslsby
 from His Study Window Backyard SAensA

"1 know when spring is at nand." said Prof. von Joggleby, according to the New York Sun, ~by the things l see in the range of backwards in view from my study window.
 "In the sheltered corner of some of these yards, where it is pro-, tected from the cold winds and where 1t gets not only the direct, but from the sheltering fences, the reflected rays of the ad7anc. ing seasons warmer sun, the grass begins to grow green while yet there may be in other parts of the yard patches of snow and ice. The eager grass responds to the first call of spring.
 "And 50 do the dwellers in the houses to which these yards are at. tached. On that same day in some of these yards there were people out raking up the winters debris; the scraps and pieces of paper, and the twigs and the sticks, left on the ground after the melting away of it's winter covering. They had sensed the approach of spring and they were cleaning up; and on the first occasion, anyway, they were moved no doubt not so much by a desire for neatness and trim ness in their several yards as by an inward prompting to get back to them once more; to mother earth.
 "It doesn't matter to me what the ground hog may say, or how many other indications may point, I always know when spring is at hand by these two signs, by the coming green of the tufts of grass in the sheltered corners of my back yard, and by the appear ance of my neighbors at work cleaning up."

Forgot tho Chimney.

A short time ago a public cere- mony was to be carried out at Landshut, an important town in Lower Bavaria. A new public school was to be formally opened, and all Landshut quivered with pleasurable anticipation. Unfor. tunately the festivities had to be put off at the last moment. The school could not be opened. No scholar could take his seat upon the brand-new forms. The land was in the grip of winter, and the architect had forgotten to provide a single chimney throughout the building.

SHARK AS A MESSENGER
Carried Newspaper to Sydney outdis- tancing Steamer Conveying Im-
 portant Item of News.

The story of the discovery of human bones and bangles in the interior of the crocodile captured at Fort Johnson, Rhodesia, brings to mind another story which may appositely be recalled at the present juncture. Every. body has heard of "Mrs. Macquar. rie's chair," as they call the east, ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney harbor. There, says the St James, Gazette, it was that poor emigrant, in pre-cable days, killed and lowed ashore shark, cut him up, and found London newspa. per in the internals. In the paper was the announcement of the war between France and Germany. The shark had outdistanced the steamer by which the mail was coming, and here the discoverer had the fact to himself. He gave his information to a wealthy wool dealer, who bought all the sea. sons clip at 9d. per pound, and sold at 3s. after the news of the war had arrived by the ordinary channel. He cleared, it is said, four millions sterling by the deal. The man who killed the shark and extracted the news of price-well, he received a battered silk hat and a five shilling piece and unre. strained liberty as to the disposal of the shark.

NOT THE ORIGINAL BOAT.
Shell Seen by Visitors at Columbia Not the One in Which Her
 Crew Won ct Henley.

Columbia students and gradu. ates will be disappointed to learn that the old shell hung in the uni versitNl trophy room on Morning side Heights is not the original boat in which the Columbia crew won the Visitors Challenge cup at Henley in 1878. The shell, says the New York Sun, occupies the most prominent position in the room and has been pointed out to every visitor as the only American boat manned by college crew to win at Henley.
 The first doubt as to the authen- ticity of the boat was expressed several months ago by Francis Sedgwick Bangs, a trustee of the university, who has always been prominent in Columbia's rowing interests. Subsequent investiga. tions have shown that on the day before the Henley crew sailed foz America Capt. Goodwin sold the two shells which Columbia had taken to England to Cambridge university, where they were used till a very few years ago, when they were broken up.
 There is some consolation for the Columbia men in the fact that the oars used by her crew in this race, which are also on view in the trophy room, are the real ones brought back by the crew and sub. sequently presented to the uni. versity.

WAS WASHINCTON'S STAFF.
Interesting History of Cane Once Owned by Father of His
 Country.

One of the things that passed through the Baltimore fire un- scathed was cane once owned by George Washington and now the property of Maj. H. H. Raleigh. The cane reposed during the fire in the vault of the Merchants Credit and Collection Bureau at Liberty and German streets, says the New York Sun.
 "In Gen. Washington's will," said Mai. Raleigh, 1.-two canes are mentioned. One was bequeathed to Robert Washington, of Chop tank, Va, who gave it to Robert Thompson, a relative.
 "Later it passed to Miss Kittie Thompson, a sister of Robert Thompson, and finally Peter Ora. son Washington os New York, who was assistant secretary of the treasury under Guthrie, was the owner of the stick.
 "Peter Grason Washington be. queathed the cane to the oldest male heir of Gen. George Wash ington who was living at the time of his death. The late Mrs. Ra. leigh was a granddaughter of a Mrs. McPherson, of Washington, D. C., who before her marriage was a Miss Washington. After some contention it was proved that Mrs. Raleigh's brother, whose family name was Edwards, was the person entitled to the pos. session of the cane. I purchased the relic for my wife, and when she died it became my property" Although described as a cane. the relic is really a staff. It is of bamboo, about four and a half feet long and just such stick as Washington might have used in tramping over his broad acres in Mount Vernon. The Washington coat-of-arms adorns it's gold head, anditis encircled with a gold band, upon which is inscribed:
 "Willed to Robert Washington and by him to descend to Peter Grason Washington, of New York"
 As soon as the embers had cooled, Maj. Raleigh hastened to the vault and was much relieved to find after the cane had been re- moved from the chamois skin case that it had not been scorched.
