1t was just about ono year ago That
some workmen who were making ex-
cavations for government work with
in the reservation of Fort Hancock.
at Sandy Hook, uncovered the bones
of IA men, all apparently inferred
many years ago in the sands of the
beach There was much speculation
for a time as to the solution OF the
riddle.
The skeletons were gathered up re-
spectfully and turned over with mill
tary regularity to the custody OF the
quartermaster's department OF the
United States army. Then began an
investigation, conducted with the u.s.
ual military red tape, but, after all,
with the customary directness OF army
affairs. Rev. Charles II. Wells, gen.
tleman with a taste for antique things,
wrote a letter in which he suggested
that the solution of the puzzle might
well be found in the inscription on
mural tablet in the sacristy of Trinity
church, which in the archaic orthog-
raphy of more than a century ago,
was found to read as follows:
'At Sandy Hook I've inferred the
bones of the Honorable Hamilton
Douglas Hallyburton, son of Sholto
Charts, Earl of Norton, and heir of
the ancient family of Hallyburton, of
Pitcurr, in Scotland, who persisted on
the cost with twelve more young gen.
tlemen and one common seaman, in
the spirited discharge of duty, on the
30tb or 31st of December, 1888.
Born on the 10th of October, 1853,
a youth, who, in contempt of hard
ship or danger, possessed of an ample
fortune, served seven years in the
British navy, with a manly courage
and deserved better fate. This
plain monumental stone is erected by
his unhappy mother, katherine, Coun-
tess Dowager of Norton, to his dear
memory and that of his unfortunate
companions.
Investigation by the military au-
thorities of the department of the east
proved that the solution suggested by
Rev. DR.. Wells was correct Then the
question arose what should be done
with the bodies of the gallant heir of
the Earl of Norton, who had died a
hero's death when barely 20 years old,
and with the remains of his plucky
associates, who had found, with him,
untimely graves in the frozen sands
of Sandy Hook. The whole story was
finally laid before the war department
in Washington in the form of official
correspondence, and a few days ago
there came to Gen. Leonard Wood.

MARRIAGE and Meanness.

Some years ago there lived in Atch-

good works and gentleness. She was
always helping the poor and was pa
tent and kind and universally ad-
mired. She married a fairly good man
and abused him within three months.
She had been good and patient for
years, but a husband was too much
for her; she had never been cross to
any one until she was cross to her
husband. There is something about
marriage that stirs up hidden depths

The La6orer Eats Food That Would

Men who are actively engaged at
hard work can sometimes eat food
that would wreck a man who is more
closely confined.
This is illustrated in the following
story:

working actively and drank coffee all
the time without much trouble until
after / entered the telegraph service.
There 1 got very little exercise and
drinking strong coffee, my nerves
were unsteady and my stomach got
weak and / was soon a very sick man.
1 quit meat and tobacco and in fact
stopped eating everything which 1
thought might affect me except coffee,
but still my condition grew worse, and
was all but wreck.

menced to use Postum a few years
ago, and / am speaking the truth
when 1 say, my condition commenced
to improve Immediately and today /
am well and can eat anything l want
without any bad effects, all due to
shifting from coffee to Postum.
