ORIGINAL of EaIataff.

Sir John Fastolf was the original of
Shakespeare's Falstaff and in his day
was a continual butt for the jests of
the town and borough of Southwark.
Though he had fought at Agincourt,
when Jack Cade invaded the borough,
he showed great cowardice. When
Cade was yet some way of Fastolf
had armed and fortified his house and
garrisoned It with veterans of the
French wars. On the arrival of Cade,
however, he withdrew his garrison and
fed to the Tower, leaving his neigh
bors to the mercy Of the rebels. Fas-
tolfs matrimonial adventures seem also
to have been another source of unpop.
ularty. for. having married a widow
named Scrope, he seized her property
and kept his stepson out of his inheri-
lance during his own lifetime.-Lon.

kniohtad Actora.


1t il an odd fact that of the English
actors knighted all but one had first
to legalize the names under which they
had won fame. The question arose
with the nrst proposition to confer
knighthood on a gypsy. 1t would be
absurd so to honor one John Henry
Brodribb. Yet legally no such person
as Henry Irving" existed. No such
obstacle had to be overcome when, on
the occasion of Victoria's diamond
jubilee, Squire Bancroft knelt before
his queen and arose sir squire. How
ever, the three actors knighted by
King Edward bore cognomens of their
own invention. Sir Charles Wyndham
was born Culverwell. and Sir John

When the late Pierre LorillaRd was
a boy, his mother. being annoyed by
moths that destroyed the wooden cloth
ing and other material Of the house
hold. agreed TO pay him a cent apiece
for every moth be would kill in the
house and bring to her. The same
bargain was made with his brothers,
Jake. George and Louis. In course Of
time Mrs. Lorillard noticed that, while
the other children collected from her
at intervals from 10 to % cents, Pierre
drew on her frequently for a 81 at a
time. indorsing his drafts with 100
dead moths. Investigation revealed
the bent of the future financier as
well as his early adaptability to meth
DDS governing the requirement Of
wealth. Having procured from a fur
rier some pieces OF fur thrown away
because they were infested with
moths, Pierre secreted them in an old
chest In an unused closet. There the
quickly accommodating moths were
banked. to be drawn upon whenever
the inventor and perfecter Of the en-
terprise required pocket money.

Til. Old Ensli.h Pri,. Rino.

In the latter days of the English
prize ring innumerable sxpedients had
to be devised to bring of fight. A
favorite plan was to pitch the ring on
the borders Of two counties, so that
the question of magisterlal Jurisdiction
might be rendered difficult. Another
plan was to charter a steamboat and
proceed down the Thames to some
lonely police forsaken spot in the
marshes Of Essex. For the memorable
contest between Sayers and Keenan, in
1860 special train was run from Lon
don bridge to a secret destination.
But the passengers. who comprised
members Of parliament, peers, pick
pockets, pugilists. clergy and. 1t is
said. few bishops, cheerfully took

They presently found themselves near
