The Pickwfck Papers.

In 1886 William Hall of the London
firm of Chapman & Hall, publishers.
had in mind an idea for new monthly
publication in which were to be pro
duced some humorous cockney sport
ing plates by Robert Seymour, an art
list then in much repute. Hall called
upon Dickens to talk the matter over
and suggested that the latter should
supply the letterpress, recounting the
comic adventures and misadventures
of the imaginary Nimrod club. AS
Dickens knew nothing Of sport, he felt
such q scheme would hamper him too
much to allow of his doing justice
either to himself or his publisher. 10
secure the unshackled freedom which
he desired for his pen he said it would
be better if the plates were to arise
out Of the text. This view DelnS
agreed to, Dickens says. II thought or

Der of the series now comprehensive!

The Austrian National Hymn.

The Austrian national anthem is one
of the most beautiful Of Haydn's melo
dies and of national hymns. The words
of the ''Emperor's Hymn" were writ
ten by the Jesuit priest L. L. HaschkI
and were set to music by Haydn. o.!
Jan. %, 1897, Count Won Saurau, gov
ernor of Vienna, issued a decree that
"GOtt erhalte Franz den Kaiser" should
be the Austrian national hymn, and Oh
Feb. II it was by order sung in ali
the theaters of Vienna. In England
it is familiar as the hymn tune Aus
tria." 1t is often sung to Newton
lines, "Glorious things of thee are
spoken" and sometimes also to Kemp
thorne's praise the Lord, We heavens
adore him."
Haydn's affection for this beautiful
melody is we'll known. He afterward
employed it for the variations In the
"Kaiserquartet," op. 76, No. 8, and
when he was near death and too weak
to stand he was carried across the
room to the clavier and sOlemnly play
ed the tune three times, according tc
Herr Pohl. as his farewell to art. VIII
liam Gardiner, the Leicestershire stock
ing maker and musical amateur, sent
Haydn six pairs Of stockings woven
with the air of "Gott erhalte" and 9th
er melodies.

Basflfsks and Dragons.

One of the peculiarities of the an
Gent writer's ON natural history sub
jects was the implicit faith which they
placed in the genuineness of the vari-
GUS basilisk and dragon stories which
were told to them. Brunette, for an
instance to the point, relates with all
soberness that 1.-The basilisk is the king
of serpents He wears white crest
upon his head, and such is the abun-
dance of his venom that the air is
poisoned wherever this dire reptile
passes. Trees in which he makes his
home exhale such poisonous odor
that birds in flying over are so over
come with it that they fall to the
ground dead.
'The dragon" says the same au-
thor. lis the very largest Of serpents
and inhabits especially India and Eth
opia. When he flies out of the caverns
In which he makes his home he fur
rows the air with such violence as to
make it CLEAN with fire. His mouth is
small. and he has not the power to in
flict deadly wounds with his teeth.
In his tail, however, his power lies.
and with it he can instantly strangle
the largest elephant"

The Story of n Hymn.

The following is the story of how
the famous missionary hymn, From
Greenland's Icy Mountains" came to
be written, as related by Heber's biog-
rapher, George Smith: 1T was Whit
sunday in the year 1919. His father
in-law, the dean of St. Asaph, was
vicar of WreXham and arranged to
preach the missionary sermon on the
day appointed. On the Saturday.
when preparing for the services, the
dean asked his sOn-in-law to write
something for them to sing in the
morning. The almost immediate result
was the composition, as if by an in
SEPARATION, of what is still the greatest
hymn in the chief missionary language
of the race. Retiring to corner Of
the room, Heber at once wrote down
the first three verses, beginning From
Greenlands icy mountains when the
dean called out, What have you writ
ten!' Heber read over the lines, when
the dean exclaimed, There, there; that
will do very WE'LL No. replied the
poet; the sense is not complete and
added the fourth verse. He would
have gone on with fifth, but the
dean was memorable to his request,
Let me add anOther-Oh, let me add
anotherr And the hymn was sung
next morning in Wrexham church."

Hidden Jewels.

The quantity of turquOises that lie
hidden in jewelry, combined with 9th
er stones and with gold or by them
selves, is so extensive in the cities OF
eastern Europe that it is believed that
more of them are bought by gem mer-
chants in this way than are at present
secured from the principal mines.
This is not strange, however, for not
only turquoises, but other precious
stones, are known to exist in remark
ably large collections in COnstantinople
as well as in cities in Turkestan, Per-
STA and communities Of southeastern
Europe. They are hidden away in GIN
ger jars, rugs, old boxes and other re-
ceptacles Of the household, where the
owner believes there is little prospect
Of search being made for them. Gem
collectors who have searched for stones
in this part of the world say that no
one can tell how many and what valu-
able specimens are thus hidden away,
only to be brought to light when the
owner is absolutely forced to part with
them through dire necessity. Undoubt-
edly many a gem brought from the IA
nous mines of India, Egypt and Per
sia has been thus secreted.-Peopic's
Magazine.

NARROW Escape From Death In Ita
Fathomless Cavern.
Anthony Fiala, in his records Of
Two Years In the Arctic In Nc.
Clure's Magazine, tells of his rescue
from deep crevasse on Hooker island.
He was crossing an ice cap when the
snow gave way beneath him. He be-
gan a frightful descent and then lost
consciousness.
On recovering consciousness. he
writes. found myself wedged between
two curves in the walls Of the crevasse.

breast and back. My left arm was
bent over my breast and had prevent
ed me from falling through the neck
Of the funnel. Beneath was a great
cavern in which l could move my legs
without finding the walls. Had STEP

should have dropped in depths un-

asked how deep l had fallen. I shout

SO 1t seemed to me. Just then heard
an awful sound in the crevasse. 1t
appeared to come from below. MY
first thought was that pack Of dog
had fallen In with me. Soon the noise
turned into articulate speech, and l
learned that Steward Spencer, who
had tried to save me. had fallen in too.
At last l saw above me The end of
rope, which gradually neared. My
right arm was free, and at last the
precious line was in my hand. 1 pain

steward was hauled up next. No bones

On measuring the rope Seaman Duffy

short distance farther to the north,
where the crevasse widened. we
should have descended beyond the

Hebrew Poetry In Earnest.


Hebrew poetry has power over oul
feelings because it Is always in dead
earnest. There is no play acting here
When one sees or reads Hamlet" OF
Macbeth" or king Lear" one is alb
sorbed in the distress and suffering, but
behind the absorption is the sense OF
detachment from real affairs. Uncon
sciously we feel that we can afford to
take part by Imagination in the suffer
ing because, after all, it Is not real
To understand and appreciate the
poetry of the Old Testament one must
remember that it Is always real. The
sufferings or the joy or the faith is
the experince Of real men utterine
forth the depths Of their soul. The
poetry had always the direct and prac-
teal purpose of unburdening real feel
ing. There is no make believe here
Even in Job the apparent form of q
drama is the thinnest of masks for the
deep and real feelings which lie under
meath. The book is not an effort Of the
author to imagine how such a man as
Job. suffering such trials, would have
felt but rather the expression Of actual
distress over the hopeless plight of his
people. The mental tortures under
which Job writhes are therefore those
of real people in real and narrowing
perplexity and the overwhelming pow
er of the answer of the Almighty, the
direct witness of faith which could
not be daunted by the most grievous
trials.-J. H. Gardiner in Atlantic

Street Car Smash -Up-Car No. Q of
the Astoria Electric Company, in charge
of Motorman G. r. Wray, was forced
into collision with light single rig yes
terday afternoon, by the careless driv-
ing of one OF the four boy occupants
OF the wagon. The trouble occurred at
about 4;30 o'clock at Fifth and Bond
streets. The car had started down the
hill from Fourth street and was running
slowly and ringing the rig off the car
line half way down the block. The
boys turned off the track all right and
would have been out of harms way,
had not one of them, little smarter
than the rest, begun whipping the
horse and swinging him in toward the
car at the junction of Fifth and Bond
streets. Despite the pounding of the
gong on the car the wagon was delib-
erately driven on the track in front of
it, with the, result that the rig was
partially demolished, the horse broke
loose and ran away, and the car was
derailed, thrown across the line and had
to be put on the rails by the company's
wrecker. No one was injured, happily
but that is due to the traditional good
luck that clings to youngsters and the
care employed by Motorman Wray, who
is said to be an exceptionally cautious
and skiilfui operator. The fault was
wholly with the boys, according to the
statements of bystanders, who saw
the entire affair.

Death of Mr.. Johansen-The many

side, and widely known and respected
throughout the whole county, were
shocked by the intelligence of his sud-
den death at the Oregon State Asylum
for the Insane yesterday morning,
telegram to that effect having been re-
ceived here by Dr. Jay Tuttle, from the
superintendent Of that institution, Dr..
Calbraith. Mr.. Johansen was for some
years prominent figure in the bust
ness and political world Of Astoria and
fairly successful in all he undertook
until his mental and physical health
broke down. He leaves widow and
three young children and brother in
the Bay City. The remains Of the late
merchant will be brought to this city
and buried with Masonic honors at a
day and hour yet to be determined.
