The Knight. and the Ki.s.

William Watson. the distinguished au. thor of the official Coronation Ode" to Edward VII. thus describes the situa. ton between the czar and his Russian subjects In the Daily Chronicle of Lon don:
 The knights rode up with gifts for the
 king.
 And one was jeweled sword, And one was a suit of golden mail,
 And one was golden word. He buckled the shining armor on, And he girt the sword at his side, But he flung at his feet the golden word And trampled it in his pride. The armor is pierced with many spears, And the sword Is breaking in twain, But the word hath risen in storm and fire To vanquish and to reign.

speare student. He has many pecul- iarities. Ore is that he dislikes bells will not have telephone or call bells about him if he can help it. Another is that he is very absentminded. Once he wore his nightshirt-under his coat, of course-to a big banquet and recep- tion. He likes to help out his old friends who are in straitened circum- stances. He Is gruff, but kindly, q bad man to meet in anger, fires his em- ployees without warning, makes his sons work as hard as any man under him and keeps everything moving. He is stockily built, with long white hair and tangled beard, hypnotic eye and a prominent, gleaming brow that wan. ders all over the top of his head. He is Protestant. but gives to Roman Cath. ollie charities as much as to those of his own church. This is on account of Mrs. Hill, who was a poor Catholic girl, whom Mir. Hill educated in con vent. They have large family, two of the sons being thorough railroad men. One of them, Lewis W. Hill, is slated to succeed his father as presi- dent of the Great Northern.
 At the time of the famous Northern Securities decision Jim Hill said pen sive.y to a friend: "They may spoil 1t all, and may be beaten this time; but, whatever happens, I've made my mark in the world. Here 1t is." And he point ed to a large wall map of the Great Northern. LA. EDGERT0N.
