Facts About Gravesend.

Gravesend, now smarting under
her treatment by the admiralty in re-
lation to the disposition of the war
ships in the coming Thames review,
has been always more or less a spoiled
child of fortune. AS the great out
post of London her privileges in the
matter Of customs and pilotage, have
been considerable. When the town
was burnt and plundercd by the
French and Spaniards in the reign of
Richard II. the king compensated the
citizens by giving them 'theHexclusive
right to carry passengers to London
by water at Cd. a. head Cor as. per
boat. Twopence, of course, was no
mean sum in those days. GraTesend
has also the distinction, among Eng
fish towns, of having been the first to
organize a river steamboat service to
London. This she did as long ago cs
1929. The gloomy name she bears
loses its sombreness when we remem-
Der that it is derived from the Saxon
~"gerefa." and indicates the limits Of
the jurisdiction Of q p~ort-reeve. In
Domesday Book she is recognizable
under the na,pe IF GraTcsham.-LcH-
don Chronicle.

Pope Plus and the Guards.

It would seem to de the ambition OF
Pope Plus x. to pass down to pos
terity as the Reformer. He has al
ready Instituted several notable ro-
forms, in the total reorganization of
the financial departments Of the Vat
lean, in the ecclesiastical corsrega-
tions, in taxes, and in the ceremonial
music. At present the Pope is con-
templating a number Of important
changes within the walls OF the Vat
lean with a View to reducing need
less expenditures. Ee has expressed
the opinion that there are far too
many idle people about the premises
Officials who are costly, but whose
Offices are pure %sinecures. The
guards, for instance, are practically
valueless. The Guards of Mobiles, the
Swiss Guards, the Palatine Guards,
the Gendarmerie-all alike necessi-
tate a vast expenditure for which
little is obtained in return. II his
holiness acted i'll accordance with his
real wishes, he would abolish all
these, but consideration of historic
interest will probably induce him
to confne himself to a mere reduc-
tion in numbers.-Rome Correspond
ence Of the London Globe.

"That is impossible" said Senator
Aldrich of a socialistic proposition.
he laughed. (
SIN its timpossibility, he went on,
sit reminds me Of Joe Jobson's mid
Gle splash.
4. ".Joe Jobson, a very ignorant and
p~ig-headed chap. presented himself
at the church with his infant son for
the christening. The following dia-
logue then took place between job
scr and the minister:
"'What name do you give this
chilaeo'
"'Peter .Ananias Jobson.'
"tAnanias? I refuse to christen
the child in that name. Do you know
who Ananias was?'
"I don't know who he was, and
WHAT'S more 1 don't care
"'But Ananias was the greatest
liar in all biblical history

baby amt no liar, so what's the diff

Mas because I like the sound of it,
81 won't do it. I will christen
the child Peter Jeremiah Jobson.
And the minister was as good as
his word, and as he repeated each
name he sprinkled a little water on
the infants face.
"'Aad l rub out that middle
splash said the father, heatedly. He
rubbed his sleeve across his child's
wet face and sprinaled a little more
water over it. 4 rub out that middle
splash. substitute this one for it, and
christen him Peter Ananias Jobson.

Largest Animal in the World.

What is claimed as the largest AM
NAL in the world is represented by a
colossal skeleton in the museum OF
Christ Church, New Zealand. This is
the remains of a large specimen of the
blue whale stranded on the coast OF
that country. This whale is probably
the largest of all living animals. The
length Of the skeleton is eighty-seVen
feet, and the head alone is twenty
one feet. The weight of the bones is
estimated at nine tons. This gigantic
whale gets it's name of blue whale
from the dark blush gray of it's up
per surface. The tinge of yellow on
its lower part has led to the name
Sulphur bottom" by which it is
known on the western side of the At
lantic. 1t is otherwise known as Sib-
bald's roqual (Balenoptera sibbaldii).
The chief food of this gigantic ami
NAL is a small marine crustacean
(Thysanopoda inermis), known to
the whalers as "kril." Another spe-
.cies OF the same shrimpllke group
has been obtained in thousands from
the stomachs Of mackerel caught on
the Cornish coast. The nearly re-
lated oppossum shrimps found in
enormous numbers in the Greenland
seas form the chief food of the COM
mon whale. Some Of the thysano-
poda are phosphorescent and contrib
ute to the luminosity of the sea-

lost. Stolen or strayed.

A story is told Of a certain MAJ liv-
ing in a New England village who lost
a horse one day, and failing to find
him he went down to the public
square and offered a reward of So
to whoever could bring him back. A
half-witted fellow VINO heard the offer

he returned in half an hour leading
him by his bride. The owner was
surprised at the ease with which his
hals-witted friend had found the
beast. and, on passing the So to him,
he said: TELL me, how did you find

Parliamentary pretensions.

Parliamentary repartee, as illus
trated by recent anecdotes in the
Office Window, was ably upheld by
Lord Brougham, especially during
the great reform debates of the last
century. On one occasion, when an
ti-reformers were trying to howl him
down by initiating the~sounds made
by various animals. among which the
braying Of the ass was most recur-
rent, he waited for q pause. and then
remarked jnperturbably that by a
wonderful disposition of nature every
animal had it's peculiar mode OF ex-
pressing itself, and he was too much
of a philosopher to quarrel with any
of those modes. This was no less Sc
we're than the famous libel on the
Earl of Limerick. calling him "a
thing with human professions
which. appeared in tee Times in 1881,
and TO-: which the printer was fined

period in Newgate.-Lcndon Chroni'
