Striking a Light.

Friction matches are a compare
lively modern invention. The first
really practical friction match was
made in the United States in 1886
by L. c. Allen of Springfield, Mass.
Before this time a clumsy form of
match was imported from France,
which had to be dipped into a bot
tie of sulphuric acid before it could
be lighted. This took a great deal
of time and trouble, and Allen, see
ing the necessity for friction
matches, set about to make them
and succeeded. He neglected to
patent them, however, and on finally
applying for letters patent found
that a man named Alonzo Phillips,
who was a peddler, had discovered
through a third person the secret OF
making the matches and had al
ready obtained a patent.

FOREIGN AMBASSADORS.
Above the Law of the Land to Which
They Are Accredited.

In every civilized country the per-
son of a foreign ambassador is held
to be inyiolable, the law of the land
being powcrless to touch him for
n offcnse. Immunity from arrest
extends also to an ambassadors
servants and the members Of his
suit.
There is, however, one case Of rec
ord in which an ambassadors as
sistant was really executed, and that
was in Great Britain. This was III
1853, and the victim was Pantaleon
Ss, who was the brother and one of
the train Of the Portuguese ambas-
sador. He quarreled with an ac-
ouaintance over a business matter
and wounded him, the life Of the
party attacked being saved only by
the intervention of bystanders.
But the next night PantaleOn Sa,
with fifty of his Portuguese friends,
all armed to the teeth, sought out
his enemy with the intention of kill
ing him. There was a desperate
struggle, and one person was killed
and several were wounded. The
guards we're called in, but the POr-
tugueSe fired on them also. Then
Pantaleon "a sought refuge in his
embassy. where he thought he was
safe. bat the ambassador surren-
dered him, and he was duly execut-
ed after some hesitation on the part
of the authorities.
The most extraordinary example
of ambassadorial privilege on record
occurred in 1861, when the French
and Spanish ambassadors at London
and their retinues fought a fierce
battle in the streets of that capital,
twelve persons being killed and for
tv wounded. On this occasion a
new Swedish ambassador was com
ing to London, and there was a dis
pute between the French and Span
ish ambassadors as to who should
have precedence in the procession
of welcome. When at last the
Swedish diplomatists arrived and
was proceeding from Tower hill to
Whitehall, the Spaniards, who had
a force of a hundred men on foot
and fifty on horseback, formed
across the road to bar the passage
of the French. The latter fred a
volley and charged the Spanish,
sword in hand. Three horses, the
position and the coachman of the
French ambassador were killed at
the outset, but the struggle lasted
for a long time after that. In the
end victory was with the Spanish.
Nobody was punished. Nor could
anybody be punished if such an
event should happen anywhere to-
day.-Harper's Weekly.
