A STRENUOUS RULER.
Daring, ceolness and Bravery -
James w. Of Scotland.

Daring, Ceelneoo and BRAVERY ~
James w. Of Scotland.
One Of the interesting characters OF
history is James w. king Of Scotland
from 1473 10 1913. He was athletic,
courageous and fond OF adventure. In
putting down Instructions and i'm
proving the criminal administration OF
the country he was foremost in the
ranks and did not shun hand to hand
contest. He married daughter Of
Henry VII. Of England and made a
treaty which secured peace between
the two countries, He labored to build
mp navy and develop commerce and
showed skiliful diplomacy ia dealing
with other nations. He was killed in
battle at Flodden, where his army
was disastrously defeated by Henry
VIII.
Those were strenuous times, when Il
was necessary for king to be fight
er and to inspire his obstreperous sub
jects with some degree Of terror. King
James used often TO 90 about the coun-
try In different DISCUSSES. not only be-
cause he loved adventure, but because
he could thus secure information on
the state Of the nation at FIRST hand.
II is related Of the vigorous Scottish
king that once when wandering through
the hills during the night he was over
taken by a violent storm and was
obliged to take shelter in a cavern near
Wemys. which is one of the most re-
markable antiquities OF Scotland. Hav-
ing advanced some way in, the king
discovered number OF men and wo-
men ready to begin to roast sheep FOR
supper. From their appearance be sus-
pected that he had fallen into evil COM
pany, but as II was then too late he
asked hospitality from them TIL the
tempest was over They granted It
and invited the king. who was un-
known to them, to sit down and join
them at supper. They were a notori-
GUS band Of robbers and cutthroats,
and this fact soon dawned upon James.
As soon as they had finished their
supper one Of them presented a plate
on which two daggers were laid In the
form OF st. Andrews cross, telling
the king that this was the dessert they
always served to strangers; that he
must choose one Of the daggers and
fight him whom the company selected
as his antagonist The king, realizing
that he was to be murdered, instantly
seized both daggers, one In each hand,
and plunged them into the hearts OF
the two robbers nearest to him. He
then dashed out Of the cave and made
bis escape, returning as soon as pos
sible with body Of soldiers, by whom
the whole band was arrested and pub
licly hanged. -Punxsutawney Spirit.

the Great Composer.
Among the Brahms anecdotes which
are popular IN Germany this one was
contributed by Frau Luise Pohl.
Brahms liked Baden Baden and took as
much pleasure In a winter visit to the
place as In the crowded summer time.
The residents knew this when they In
vlted him In 1915 to come and direct
some OF his works After the CON

bled at Goldemen Kranz by invitation

drink glass Of wine." The session
lasted long, but gradually the company
grew smaller, Presently they had all
gone except Brahms and Cornelius
Ruhner, After awhile even Brahms
suggested home, and his young com.
panlon eagerly agreed to adjourn the
session. On the way home Brahms
asked his companion, whose name he
had not heard. by the way, do you
know this young director Rubnerg"
"Are you interested in hlmr he ask.
cd by way OF answer.
Certainly. Adolf Jensen thinks he
IL not only great. but genial. Don't you
know hlm3r
Il know him very we'll He Is an ar.
rogant, ooneeited fellow, who can do
nothing and knows nothing"
The pleasure Of the evening was
spoiled by this harsh opinion as to a
man whom Brahms had made up his
mind to like. The next morning he at
tended. with some others. breakfast
at Jensen's, where he told the story.
Tie had hardly finished when the door
opened and Rubner walked In.
That's the man who slandered your
friend" said Brahms, and when ev.
eryhody laughed he suspected what
was told to him as soon as the first
man recovered.
