TOOK THE MINISTER'S WATCH.
Last Action of Pickpocket Typical of,
 His Life.

Rt. Rev. Dr. Chadwick. Bishop of Derry and Raphoe. in speech at the, synod of the Irish Protestant church, referred to the story of a pickpocket having been found dead with the watch of the clergyman who had come to attend him in his hand. The cler- gyman in whose experience this strange incident occurred was the late, Rev. w. H. White. chaplain of the Savoy and chaplain to the speaker of the British house of commons in tho reign of Speaker Brand. Mir. White was aroused in the small hours of the morning from his sleep by a sick call when, early in his ministry. he was a curate in a Brighton parish. He was summoned to, bad quarter of the town and was led to the bedsideI of a man who was rapidly sinking. amid surroundings of Restitution and squalor. The man passed away while Mir. White was offering prayer in his behalf, and MT. White. on rising from his knees, discovered to his astonish-I ment that his watch had been removed from his pocket and was held tightly In the grasp of the dead man

PRIsoNERs IN "A CAVE.
Party Of PIcnIoksrs Has ExoItino " venture In Basutoland.

A remarkable incident occurred inl Basutoland recently, writes the Lon- don Mails Durban correspondent. A picnic party decided to make trip into the Basuto country, which theyI entered by pass known as the Lahls Ingubo, on the Natal frontier, and en1 camped for the night in cave in tho Drakensberg. Proceeding on their journey the following day they asked
 native to direct them to cave In
 which they. could take their midday meal. The Basuto appears to have given information of their presence. for toward evening, the party was in- tercepted by number of natives. the old man who appeared to be in charge carrying a gun. The Europeans were. then arrested, accused of being white mems spies," and taken ts . placo which had the appearance of noun tain stronghold beneath an oyerhang- ing cliff. Here the visitors horses were turned astray, and the headman. telling them that they would not be allowed to re-enter Natal, signifled that they would have to continue with. out their horses, and would have to carry their saddles. After night spent under surveillance in cave the Basutos maintaining a close watch upon their captives. the party made their escape by means of a strategem. in which they were assisted by the Basuto guide, who helped them to cap ture the horsres and led them back to, the pass by which they entered. Af- ter furious ride in the darkness, the preciptous nature of the country lead ing to several exciting adventures. the party reached the Natal side early on the morning after their escape. thor. oughly spent and unnerved. |

Llf. Of French Mechanic.

All mechanics fin France are obliged to serve an apprenticeship of from two to three years. during half of which period. at least. they receive no ways and must board themselves. In addii ton to this. each one must give u7l two years of his life for military ssrv- fee, for which he receives cent day and board and clothes. It will be seen that every mechanic in France must expend four or five years of bis life without wages. before he is prepared to earn from s7 cents to si.17 day.
