Amusement 900 Years Aao.

Just 800 years ago King James l..
of England visited the liens then kept
in London tower-the show from
which is derived "the lions" in the
sense of the sights Of a place. The
king had an arena built on to their
cages for fights with bears, dogs and
bulls; but the two lions that entered
it on this day simply stood blinking.
Two tracks of mutton" and "a lusty
live cock" were successfully thrown
to them and devoured. after this the
king caused live lamb to be easily
let down unto them by rope, and
being come to the ground the lamb
lay ulpn his knees and both the lions
stood in their former places and only
beheld the lamb; but presently the
lamD rose up and went unto the lions,
whitn very gently looked upon him
and smelled on him, without sign Of
any further hurt" However, lion
an i-mastiff fight that followed was
be ter sport"

themselves Fersen, and afterward

rose to high position. The most Illus

the French service and played con-
siderable role in the life Of Marie An

couple in the fight to Varenne. He
was afterward murdered by a Stock

soned the crown prince of Sweden.

HISTORY WAS NOT TAUGHT.
Recognition by Colleges Of Importance
of American Story.

of American Story.
A little more than thirty years ago
boy could enter Harvard college and
after four years graduate with the
highest honors without knowing of
the existence of the declaration of in
dependence or when the constitution
of the United States was framed, says
Henry Cabot Lodge in the Reader
Magazine. What was true of Har-
ward was true of other universities
and colleges. American history was
not included in the scheme of the
higher education. Boys entering col
lege were required to know something
of the history of Greece and Rome,
but not of their own country. During
the four years of the college course
they had opportunity to study the his.
tory of England and Europe, but never
to learn aught of the United States.
This condition of education was mere
ly an indication of an attitude of mind
then passing away, but which had once
been predominant. The usual opinion
seems to have been during the first
half of the nineteenth century that
there was no American history worth
telling, apart from the adventures of
the revolution, which were both con-
rected so closely with the history of
Europe that they might be deemed of
Importance.

FRAUD ON LIFE COMPANIES.
Scheme Worked Successfully by Girl
Who Counterfeited Death.

A fraud scheme at the expense OF
life insurance companies was carried
out three times successfully as long
ago as 1870. A young woman with an
extraordinary power Of Stimulating
death had for confederate an elder
ly man, who passed for her uncle.
Twice in different parts of England
she insured her life in her uncle's IA
vor, went into commissions and to all
appearances died. The third time the
game was played with an ingenious
variation. The uncle went to life
insurance company, explained that he
was in financial straits and wished to
borrow money on his niece's estate.
To compensate for such loan he
would have to insure her life for its
value, but could not afford to have
this insurance become known, as It
would expose his financial condition
and ruin his credit. The company,
therefore, agreed to write the insur.
ance under a bond of secrecy. As
usual, the young woman went into
commissions and died. Before her
funeral she lay in state for all the
world to see. Her uncle was pros
trated.
He did not try to collect the insur.
ance for some months and when he
did the company paid him in full with
expressions of real sympathy. So did
nine other companies, which he had
silenced by the same ruse, and he
joined his niece on'the continent with
a very impressive fortune.

Square (Mr.) Root"-the story Of a COL
leae Nickname.

In the November Worlds Work Henry
Beach Needham has written a character
study of Elihu Root, the new secretary Of
state. One story of Mr.. Roots college
days is significant contribution to the
understanding of his character today SAYS
Mr.. Needham:
In college he was a consistent worker
He carried off the first prize in mathe-
matics. On his record in scholarship he
was appointed valedictorian of his class
and thereby hangs a tale. During his
junior year occurred what was called the
German rebellion" Because of dislike OF
and dissatisfaction with the instructor in
German his class withdrew from college
In body-eVery man save Root. The
class was out about two months, but dur
ing that time he went regularly to his
Rotations. The explanation vouchsafed
is that, because of his fathers official con-
nection with the college as a member of
the faculty, Root could not join in the
secession 1t was an unfortunate situa-
ton, for which he may have been entirely
blameless. At all events, he never lost the
nickname which had been given him, the
son of Cube" Root, early in his college
course 1t was Square" Root and of this
significant diminutive his fellow students
considered him worthy despite his lack of
popularity After ALL the only importance
attaching to the secession is that when
tempted-and sorely tempted he must
nave Deen-he would not desert his work,
This trait has followed him throughout
his career, as will be shown, and in con-
siderable degree has contributed to his
success.
Following his graduation in 1864 Mr..
Root became the head Of the co-educa-
tional academy of Rome, N. Y, in which
he taught the classics and mathematics.
He was popular with his students who
not only respected and admired the young
Hamilton graduate, but formed warm
affection for him which has lasted through
the years. Somewhat to his fathers dis
appointment he abandoned teaching as a
career after an experience OF one year and
turned to the law. Professor Root offered
his son letters of introduction to infiuen-
tial persons in New York city who could
help him; these he refused. II am going
to make my own friends without any
family pull. / want to find out whether /
am man or a mouse"

For darkness passes; storms shall not
abide;
A little patience, and the fog is past;
After the sorrow of the ebbing tide,
The singing floods return in joy at last
The night is long and pain weighs heavily,
But God will hold his world above
despair.
Look to the east where up the lurid sky
The morning climbs The day shall yet
be fair. -LCelia Thaxter.

One woman came with organic con-
dition OF years standing which the
medical faculty had repeatedly re-
fused to treat unless she would sub
NIT to an operation. Prof. Wilkins
dared to attempt the case and the
woman left his Office so much relieved
that she cried for joy.
Prof wilkins treated one of the
worst ruptures on a man 65 years
old. The rupture was as large as a
mans head and had not been
put back for years. Prof Wilkins
replaced 1t without injury or pain
to the patient. If suffering men and
women wish to be convinced let them
come to Prof. Wilkins's Offices and see
and learn for themselves.
1t wont cost you one cent to see
and consult the man who makes these
cures. A doctor came to see II this
power was what II was claimed to
be, and went home and brought his
wife for treatment.

Prof. wilkins asks for is the chance
to demonstrate. Lay aside your

What has made Japanese Ware
so POPULAR That's the question.
We've had it put to us several times.

deserves to be, and besides the Jap
Russ war has had its influence to
bring Japanese art out of compare

In this town Japanese ware will
reach high point in favor for the
above reasons, and because of the
