: AS soon as king mounted the throne
he began making his funeral prepare
tions, and ordered the entire staff Of
stonecutters to chisel out hieroglyphics
explaining that he was great and good
and just, and that he never took off his
hat to anyone except the gods, and
then not ordinary picayune gods, but
only those of the very first magnitude.
According to the hieroglyphics, every
king that ruled in Egypt was as wise as
Solomon, as brilliant in military STRAIT
egy as Napoleon, and as hard on the
evildoer as our own beloved T. R. =.
This unanimous outpouring Of eulogy
is largely explained by the fact that
every memorial in honor of ruler was
erected and supervised by that ruler
himself. It's a fact! OF all the
countless temples and obelisks and god

chambers remaining in Egypt to testify
to the majesty and splendor Of the
ancient dynasties, every one was built
under the personal supervision Of the
man who gets the glory out Of the in

never got up subscription lists to build
monuments to statesmen or military
commanders. The dutiful and loving
son never ordered memorial in honor

T ONDON, May 5.-Lord Durham
has just denied the report tna1
- his famous seat, Lambton castle;

cause regret to the American mil
lionaires who have had their eyes
on it. Lambton castle is pre-
eminently one of the stately homes
of England. 1t is situated near Dur
ham and stands grandly on the edge
of sharp declivity running down to
the River Wear, which divides the
magnificent park. 1t has no properly
authenticated, blood-curdling ghost, but
this deficiency is more than compen-
stated for by the most wonderful legend
that ever made skeptics gasp.
Once upon time-so begins the
story, as all good stories should begin
the Youthful heir of the house of
Lambton went fishing on Sunday in
stead of going to Sunday school, de-
spite the pious admonitions Of the fam
lily chaplain that something awful
would surely happen as the result of
such sacrilegious conduct. He fshed
for a long time without getting so
much as bite, and then hauled up a
small worm or eft. Cursing his luck,
he ehucked the worm into a well and
returned home moody and disappointed.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1906-06-03

The people told him it was up to him
to rid them Of it somehow, because, If
he hadn' gone fishing on Sunday when
he ought to have been at Sunday school,
he wouldn't have caught the worm;
and if he hadn't caught the worm and
chucked it into the well, it wouldn It.

The young knight asked them how
they knew that if he hadn't caught
the worm it wouldn It have grown into:
just such q whopper anyhow. But they
said he couldn't get out of it by talk
ing any such foolishness as that; he
had Just got to kill that worm or there
would be trouble. So he buckled on
his armor and tackled the job. But he
couldn It make success Of it, because
every time he cut the worm in two,
the two ends reunited and the worm
was ready for business again and as
thirsty for milk as ever.
How He Slew the Monster.
Then the young knight sought the
advice of an old witch. She told him
that she would put him up to trick
by which he could kill the big worm,
but there was condition attached to
it, which was that he would have to

On the appointed day the customary
dole Of milk was withheld, and, reused

river, where young Lambton, incased in

The worm flung itself upon him and
/ coiled itself tightly around him, and

foreseen. 1t was cut up into sections by
the razors, and the fragments dropping

WEIRD LEGEND OF :.*.=
LAMBTON'S CASTLE
Terrible SEQUEL to Sunday Fishing Expedition of One
the Earlv Members of the House of Lambton---H How
the Tough Yarn Is Perpetuated. .

When he grew a bit older his sin be-
gan to prey on his conscience. In those
days the sovereign remedy for an I'M
easy conscience was trip to the Holy
Land and scrap with the Saracens.
So, after bathing himself in holy
water the heir started for Palestine by
the overland route.
Meanwhile the worm grew and grew
till the well became too small to hold
it. Then it left the well and took to
the River Wear, where it rapidly in
creased in bulk and became the terror
and scourge of the country. It drank
daily the milk of nine cows and raised
Cain if the milk was not promptly
forthcoming. When It wanted to
stretch it's muscles it would wind itself
nine times around a certain knoll a
short distance from the river. To prove
this statement true, people will show

a hound to his son, to obviate the dan
ger Of being himself the first living
creature to encounter the knight after
the path to give chase to rabbit, and
thus it happened that the first living
creature young Lambton spied after
killing the big worm was his own faith
er. AS he declined to do that he had to
abide by the penalty, which was that
no chief of the Lambtons should die in
bed for nine generations. Truth to tell
that was not much of penalty, for in
those old fighting days knights rather
gloried in dying with their boots on,
just as did the pioneers Of the wild and
woolly west in later times.
Now, whether this story be true OF
otherwise, it is nevertheless a fact that
the legend stares one in the face at
Lambton castle. On the great stained
glass window Of the huge hall, young
Lambton is depicted killing the worm.

place showing the same thing. There
