Cost of Boat Ride.

The Boatman-How much will you
give me?
Mr.. HerZ-AH I've got S44.6O
The Boatman-YOu're on; get in
And Mr. Herr got in but he failed
to mention the fact that besides the
$4460 in his vest pocket he also had
roll of bills in his watch pocket The
boatman demanded his $44. 60 before the
passenger reached the Oakland pier
and got it.
When Mr.. Herr reached the pier he
struck the first good luck of his trip.
He climbed along the stringers to the
Southern Pacific rOundhouse and
caught an engine bound for Sacra-
mento as a helper and rode to that
city as a special passenger. There he
got into communication with the pres
ident of the chamber of commerce, told
his story and got the people of the city
interested in a campaign for eggs that
beat anything California had ever seen
in that line.
From there, as related he went to
Reno and set all the ovens in town to
working overtime on bread for the suf-
ferers. Then he hit the trail for Salt
Lake and went into the 'spud" bust
ness with the result set forth above.

Bigger patches in our pants.

Send your mite, however small

We shall have no pants at all.

SEARCH FoR A QUEEN.
Romantic Attempt to Find Body and

London.-A romantic search for the
body OF q sainted queen and the mar.
veiously rich shrine In which II was
inclosed is about to be Instituted in
the hoary cathedral OF Ely. Nearly
500 years ago. when Henry VIII. sup.
pressed the monasteries and issued
an edict for the removal OF all relics,
images aud shrines. Ely cathedral pos.
sessed venerated relic OF great
value In the jewel.bedecked shrine OF
st. Etheldreda. the virgin queen. The
shrine mysteriousiy disappeared. and
Notwithstanding all their exertions
tho kings men were unable to re
cover It. From that day to this no
one has seen the relic.
Tradition has II that the shrine
had been placed In some cunningly.de.
vised hiding place within the cathe-
dral. and from time to time search
has been made for Il. Walls have
been tapped. the floor has been dug
up. and numerous likely places have
been thoroughly explored. but disap.
poIntment has always attended these
efforts.

But while In the west tower the

In tho east the staircase extends only
