AZ a Royal academy dinner In Lon
non on one occasion several artists
were expressing their enthusiasm
about Titan. Carlyle and Thackeray
were among the guests.
Ills glorious coloring Is a fact about
Titan" said one man, striking the Ia
BILE TO give emphasis to the remark
"And his glorious drawing IS another
fact about Tihanw cried another artist.
And 30 they went on until Carlyle,
who had been listening in silence to
their rhapsodies, interrupted them by
saying. with a slow deliberation which
had it's own impressive emphasis;
"And here sit, man made IN the
Image OF God, who knows nothing
about Titan and cares nothing about
Titan, and that's another fact about
Titian."
Thackeray was slipping claret at tho
moment. He paused and bowed cour-
teously 70 Carlyle Pardon me-" he
said; "that appears to me to be not a
fact about Titan. but a fact, and a
lamentable one, about Carlyle"

Handel was blessed with a wonder
ful appetite, and many are the anus
ing accounts, true or otherwise, as to
the means taken by its owner for its
indulgence. His gastronomic propensi-
ties were frequently the object Of sa-
tires, and in one. caricature the com
poser is represented as sitting on a
beer barrel. A ham and a pair Of
fowls are attached to the pipes OF an
organ, a turbot lies upon pile Of
books, and the floor Of the apartment
is strewn with oyster shells. 1t is
more likely that his adversaries in
vented and propagated many Of the
wild stories concerning his eating and
drinking powers than that they had
any foundation in literal fact. No one
would probably order a dinner for
three persons for instance, and be
cause It was being kept back for the
company to arrive blurt out to the as
tonished waiter: Il ana de company.
Bring up de timer bretissimo."

indicates that you have had to hustle
around pretty lively to get the money

The method of sniping In warfare is
as follows: Three men set out two
in one direction and one IN another.
The single man, when he believes he IS
In the neighborhood Of the enemy, lets
of his rife, no matter in what direc-
ton. and thus draws the fire Of the
sentry. Immediately the two other
stalkers fire into the space lit up by
the discharge When this goes on, all
round the camp the result is constant
alarm at night time. Soldiers are
warned not to reply to a sniper, but
the temptation is well nigh irresistible.
Their exertions, however, meet with
little success, foE snipers generally
stalk the sentries from behind stones.

When one Of the large benefactors Of

When the English government de-
nounced John Paul Jones as a pirate
the American naval hero neatly coun-

Ireland and Spain. Galway and Wa
