New England Justice.

Ebenezer Smell the grandfather Of
the poet William Cullen Bryant, is
described as good type of the New
England farmer, In whose nature
Puritanism, with its stern rigors OF
conduct and conscience, was overlaid
with many of the amenities Of Yam
kee humor Bryant preserved several
anecdotes of his grandfather. one Of
which. quoted by W. A. Bradley, in
his biography of the poet, may serve
to indicate the way in which he exer-
cised his humor, and also TO show
the patriarchial conception of justice
that was held in a remote New Eng
land community at the end of the
eighteenth century.
Ny grandfather, said Bryant, once
found that certain pieces of lumber,
intended by him for the runners of
sled. and called in that part Of the
country sled -crooks, had been taken
without leave by a farmer who lived
at no great distance. These timbers
were valuable being made from a
tree the grain Of which was curved
so as to correspond with the curve
required in the runners.
The delinquent received notice that
his offense was known, and that IL
he wished to escape a prosecution he
must carry a bushel of rye to each Of
three poor widows living in the neigh
borhood, and tell them why he
brought it.
He was only too glad to comply
with this condition.

| massacre of the Christian Indians,
March s, 1772 Concerning this no.
table history making period of the
Revolutionary war; William Dean
Howells has said: 1.-THE annals of the
Moravian Church link in the same
chain of sorrows and calamities the
burning of John Illus in 1415 at Con-
stance and the murder Of the hapless
Christian Indians at Gnadenhutten on
the Muskingum." Mr.. Heckewelder
was missionary among the Indians
for more than fifty years, and was at
ton to make treaties with them. Mr..
Heckewelders' ancestors were exiles
from Moravia who fled to Saxony,
leaving behind them all they posses
sed for conscience sake. His parents
settled in Bedford, England and en-
gagged in the work of the Moravian
Church. John was born on March u,
1743. In 1854 the family came to
America in q vessel owned by the
Moravian church, and eight years
later John began missionary work
among the Indians at the Indian capt.
tai of Tuscarawas. In 1T72 Hecke-
welder and Zeisberger, another we'll
known Indian missionary, established
settlement in the valley of the Mus
kingum river, and within a few years
thereafter a cluster of Christian com
munities of converted Indians arose

ted that in the West Indies the women
are the willing workers: the men for
the most part prefer to loll under the
shade. 1t may be that most of them
inherit all the failings and Weaknesses
of the African savage, but though they
are not too anxious to work at all, they
make good enough laborers If they are
forced to earn their daily bread
The West Indian white man is a
Briton who might just as easily be
seen walking about The tea planta-
tons In distant Ceylon. His face is
very brown or else a deep mahogany
red; in the country he wears a SLOUGH
hat and walks only when 1t is impossi-
bic for him to get his sao1 -yrse
or buggy. But In the cities he is par
ticular about the cut of his coat and
the condition of his linen. AS rule
he is a heavy cigar smoker, and he is
the most hospitable man in the world.
If you come across him at his house
you will find it difficult to tear your
self away, even though the man is a
stranger to you. If you go to stop with
him for day you will probably find
1t impossible to get away under a fort
night. You will find that your host is
pretty good hand at golf, pigeon
shooting, cricket, tennis or billiards,
and there will never be any reason for
you to complain of dizziness.
The islands have a little army of
their own, and the black Tommies and
white officers who go to make up the
West Indian regiments are not the
least efficient or brilliant of the sol

A Eren,h PEASANTS Find.

Not long ago a French peasant
named Maurin, while pottering about
between Mende and Chateauneuf-sur
Random. in the Lozere, made a re-
markable archaeological discovery.
His pick, at one particular stroke
sank into the soil with an ease that
excited his suspicious. Carefully pro-
ceeding he dug down into the rains
of a dwelling that speedily betrayed
itself as very ancient. When fully
uncovered it proved to be the remains
of a Roman villa once luxuriously fur
nished. The walls still bear traces
of rich frescoes. And behind the
cuckoo clock on the mantlepiece the
peasant M~urin came across the lit
tie tin savings bank CT the late in
FAINT Calus Lucullus, b. It contain
ed a large number of valuable coins,
bearing efigies of Roman emperors
and such like, and Maurin came out
Of the adventure naturally in the
humor of little Jack HOrner.

of any more tin savings banks, uncov-
cred more fragments of walls, all APP

An Intelligent Horse.

In the city of Oakland, Cal, lived,
a few years ago, horse as beautiful,
intelligent and affectionate as ever a
horse could be- Prince" was his
name, and we'll it fitted him.
The readiness with which he under
stood what was said to him was re-
markable, says Our Dumb Animals.
Prince" his mistress would say, Il
would like you to visit Mrs. Y,
and, as Mrs. y was a particular
friend of his, Prince would trot most
readily and rapidly to her house.
Again, Miss c. would tell him
to go to the bank for money, and
there he would go; or to the stable
where oats, bran and hay were to
be ordered, and he would trot there
at lively rate.
He was always spoken to exactly
as a person would have been. Once
a lady who was riding with Miss
C was surprised to have him
take her home and stop before the
house.
ooh, Prince she said, won't you
give me a little longer rider"
He shook a knowing head and rae
ed around the block twice, stopping
then as before, as if to inform her
that the trip had been of a reasonable
length.
No end of little incidents of like
nature might be related of him.

Warsaw and Springfield, III. He was
graduated at Brown University in
1858.
In 1861 he went from Springfield,
H., to Washington to become Presi-
dent Lincoln's secretary and later he
served in the civil war. He reached
the rank of colonel and was at Lin
coins bedside when the President died.
He then went to Europe and filed sub
ordinate diplomatic positions at vari-
Gus capitals. Ia 1896 he was appoint
ed ambassador to England
In the seventies. when Mr.. Hay was
acting editor of the New York Tribune,
he wrote fanciful verse of the soil,
which became more celebrated than
his more serious literary efforts-one
of which is a life of Lincoln. for which
he received $4,000. Mr.. Hays house
in Washington was one Of the most
beautiful residences in the city, and
his library was filed with rare pic
lures and rarer books.
AS a literary man John Hay would
have won fame sufficient for the most
ambitious. His life of Lincoln is an
able work and his poetry was of a
high order. But as secretary of state
under Mckinley and then under Roose-
welt, Mr.. Hay brought the diplomacy
Of the United States into the first
rank. His ability was splendidly
shown during the Boxer troubles in
China. Hay alone kept China out Of
the Russo-Japanese war. Limiting the
zone Of conflict was one OF his great
est diplomatic victories.
