the proceedings are recorded by means
of one of the embers of the brand. The
roll of fourteen tenants is then called
over and answered TO in n whisper. and
then they kneel down and swear al
legiance. Very many years ago the
lord of the manor. after an absence
from his estate, was returning home
by night. On the way he accidentally
heard some OF his disconnected ten
antry plotting his assassination. Thus
warned, he returned home by an unex-
pccted route. Then he ordered that
each year his tenants should assemble
at the same time to do him homaeJ
around post which he erected on the
spot where the plotters met.

salad of the Shoes.

Freshmen have troubles the world
over. The consents" rs they are call
cd at the famous Ecole Polytechnlqur
In Paris, are subjected to an amusing
Initiation called the salad of shoes.
The freshmen report some days be-
fore the upper class men so that they
can receive their uniforms and become
familiar with the routine Of the school
The first morning after their torment
ors return the freshmen are aroused
by demand that they throw their
shoes out of the windows into the court
yard The shoes are gathered into a
heap. and, kneeling in n big circle
around this. the freshmen are' obliged

st. Elizabeth Of Hungary.

1t Is curious that st. Elizabeth OF
Hungary should have spent only the
first four years of her life in the coun-
try which always distinguishes her
name. She was only Just four when
her father, the king VI Hungary, sent
her to Thuringia TO be betrothed to
the nine-year-old Prince Louis. and
there she remained all through her
childhood and married life until her
death in 1881. Perhaps. says the Lon
don Chronicle, because she Is one Of
the few saints whose holiness did not
preclude love and marriage sly, always
seems particularly human saint, and
the tales that are told OF her--how, for
instance, she gave away her toys and
dolls to poor children when she was
but baby herself, how the food she
was taking to beggars in covered
basket turned to red and white roses
when her husband lifted the lid. how
she heard a bird singing to her on her
deathbed and sang to 1t in rcp!y--all
point to the poetry and charm which
are associated with her name.

ORANGE CROP SAFE.

While Ehe recent cold snap reached
generally throughout the State and
resulted in some damage, the West
Coast peninsula suffered less than any
other section, so far as reports received
from that section indicate. These re-
ports are not merely on paper, but are
in evidence in the substance.
Division Superintendent H. a. Ford
Of the Atlantic Coast Line has received
samples OF oranges from the various
sections south OF Trllby, as far as st.
Petersburg, and investigation demon
strated the fadt that this fruit was
not atall injured, The fruit was per-
fectly sound and juicy, possessing an
excellent flavor.
II. z. Dickens, agent Of the Atlantic
Coast Line at 81. Petersburg, tele-
graphed Superintendent Ford that
a careful inspection Of nine groves re-
yealed the fact that the fruit in that
section was uninjured.
snperlntendent Ford stated that,
from the best information obtainable,
considerable fruit north Of Trilby was
damaged, but the trees are unhurt.
The younger trees, however, may shed
their leaves, but this will be the only
result.
This will be gratifying Information

throughout that section was destroyed.
