Kentish squire, who was Interested
in giving his tenants an intelligent idea
of what be had seen abroad.
He had made a journey IN Palestine,
and being an admirable craftsman, had
brought home a number of excellent
sketches. One winter evening after his
return the squire gave a lecture to his
village, and showed a number of his
drawings. Among them was cart
very similar to that which l drew at
Jodhpur.
The squire explained to his audience
that 1t was a type of the most primitive
conveyance known, and that it had ex-
listed in precisely this same form in
Palestine from the earliest times; in
deed, that it was probably a cart or
wagon of this description that Joseph
had sent down from Egypt to bring his
father and his household goods from
Canaan.
Afterward an old farmer came up and
expressed his great interest in what he
had heard, adding that there was one
thing above all others which had inter
ested him, and that was the cart. For

CUMBED TO APOPLEXY.
His Record in Playing Embodied Game
Reached twenty-five Games
at Once

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, June 1S.-
Harry Nelson Pillsbury, the chess mas
ter, died here Sunday of apoplexy, after
an illness of many months pillsbury

vile. Mass, where the body will be

Pillsbury learned the ruaimcnts Of
chess when he was Is years old at the
Deschappclcs Chess club in Boston His
first notable victory was a score of five
to four in Il match with John +. Barry
of Boston in 1891. In 1873 he won the
New York City tournament ana in 1899
won first prize ut the Hastings tourna-
mcnt against many of the strongest play
ers of the world. This victory made him
one of the quartctte of thr i,ou most fu-
nous players named to compete at St
rsburg-Lasker, Steiuitz, Tchigorin
and pillsbury. His score with the world
champion, LasSer, was 81 to 2la.
In 1897 Pillsbury won from ShOwalter
the American chess championship which
h" confirmed 10y a second match with

Rose Farm Of Twelve Acres.

One of the most interesting sights in

work now being done by the California
Rose company on its rose farm at the
foot of White avenue, Here may be- seen
literally acros of roses, the slips being
planted n few weeks ago, GOVERN. the
entire l2-acre tract, in rows about 3 feet
apart.
The plants are about i inches in
height and here and there over the tract
many of them are in bloom, 1t will be a
beautiful sight when the rose bushes are
grown to > or 3 feet in height, all in
blossom.
The work of rrigating and tending the
plants at this time of year requires
about twenty-five men. From December
until April, during the shipping season,
probably fifty to seventy-tve people will
be kept busy. At this season the young
plants are being pushed as rapidly MS
tender care, good soil, the available
amount of sunshine and constant irrigat-
ing will accomplish it.-Pomona Times.

Mr.. Hadley has only once travelled
beyond the confines Of Greater Boston.
That was more than forty years ago.
when, on invitation Of an employe Of
his brick yard, he consented TO spend
a few days in New Hampshire. Thirty
years ago he made his first and only
visit to Revere Beach. With this ex
ception he has never seen any of the
summer recreation resorts about Bos-
ton. All told, he has not spent more
than 81 for car fares, and, with the
exception of one-day clam bake out
ing at Revere Beach and few days In
the Granite State, he has never enjoyed
a holiday-and he Is proud of his rec
ord for thrift, industry and remarkable
economy.
He says he has not had time to vote

all of them wear hats, and pretty ones,
except perhaps an occasional beggar,
or a foreigner with a shawl upon her
head, who is selling crocheted iaces
from basket. Another fact to be re
membered is that our American police
men walk one by one, while in Italy
they will be found always marching
about in twos. The skyscrapers are of
course a distinctive feature. There is
not anything like them in Europe, one
group covering the most valuable ten
ace lot in the world
The initial prospect OF the steamer
that is to give the tourist his first run
from home is not particularly attrac-
tive. The great ship does not look en-
ticing in the docks. The sailors make
a great task of cleaning it up after
coaling, and everything IS in confusion
over the handling Of freight and bag
gage. The place is noisy, too. and the
staterooms are close and musty, redolent
of odors of the wharf. The best friend
to make at starting Is the deck steward,
who is always pleased to advise the
inexperienced traveller where he will
most enjoy sitting on deck during the
voyage. This is the more important,
because ones first choice OF a place
will hold throughout the trip at sea
The great hour comes when the steam
er leaves its wharf, ana the tourist re-
allies that he is off for Europe The
crowds on the docks below wave their
hats, handkerchiefs and paIasols In
adieu, and the big ship moves slowly
