for New York. Not until the vessel was we'll on
her way did he realize how strange a figure he
presented in his dress coat, which he had en-
tirely forgotten to change in the heat of his de-
parture.
Oxenford used to say, however, that his
plight was not so grotesdue as that of a friend
who, while enjoying himself at masked ball in
the garb of an Italian brigand, received tele

A well known actor at the beginning of the
last century, Bensley, distinguished for his fine
performance of Malvoio in Twelfth Night" !"
undertook for wager to travel from London to
York attired as Oivia's steward. The journey
was to be made on horseback so that, as he
proceeded on his way, his outlandish costume
might be in full evidence at all times. Bensley
had troublesome time of it. His progress was
constantly impeded by mobs. whose derision
was well nigh intolerable; but finally the play
ers identity and object being made known, he
was enabled to continue unmolested
In 1870 one Lenoir started to walk from
Paris to Bayonne incased in barrel from
which his head, arms, and legs protruded.
During the greater part of the Journey he made
fine progress; but when he reached Bordeaux
he was knocked down by runaway horse,
which so shook Lenoir that he was forced to
abandon his undertaking.
An uncommon garb to encounter IN these
modern days is medieval suit of armor. A
year ago an antiquarian named Dessmer pur-
chased at Berlin fine specimen Of such Middle
QUESTION that, in order to avoid any possibility
of its being lost, he carried it on his person un-
til he arrived home, to the amazement of the
railway officials and all others at the station.
