He Liked scotchmen.

The late Meredith Townsend had ar
affection for Scotsmen as contributors
to the Spectator, of which he was fol
SO many years proprietor and coeditor.
Mr.. Townsend's liking for the Scots
was based on an experience he had in
Leith when boy. He was on holi-
day and had run short Of money fol
his return to London. He boldly board
ed London passenger boat, intimated
his desire to the captain to go south

he was without funds. Seemingly IA
vorably impressed by the lads tale and
appearance, the captain. Scot, said
that would be all right and showed
him to cabin. "But," said young

from hengstman (Anglo-Saxon). horse

men were in the first instance young
mobiles who at state ceremonies attend
ed on the king as mounted pages. His
tory speaks of these henchmen In this
capacity, for we read that Henry vi
had three and Edward Nv. six of them
We find. too. that they were mention
ed in the royal ceremonies as belong
ing ito the riding household" and took
part in tournaments. The last time
"henchman'' Is mentioned In connec'
ton with the court is in the reign Of
Henry VIII. and gradually it came tc
mean an ordinary page. The word Is
used by Ben Jonson and Shakespeare
in this sense.

aMad Anthony" Wayne.

The nickname of Mad Anthony" at
tached to the name Of General Wayne
Of Revolutionary fame was due to no
trace of insanity, but instead to the
mans wild. reckless courage in plung-
ing into battle where the odds against
him seemed hopeless. He had other
nicknames too. Dandy Wayne" was
one of them. because Of his absurd
love for wearing fine clothes in the
wilderness and in battle. The Indians
gave him the nickname Of Black
Snake from the swift and deadliness
of his attack. At the outbreak Of the
Revolutionary war Sir Henry Clinton
said of Wayne: Wherever Mad An
thony Wayne is there's always fight.
That's what he is there for And
Clinton had sufficient experience to
know whereof he spoke.

Another corlmon method pf prevent

a. MEAL FOR A. TIGER.
The Ram Was Fighter, Though, and
Furnished q Surprise.

The Ram Was Fighter, Though, and
4 Furnished Surprise.
Nature has made the tiger unequaled
in the combination Of speed, strength,
cunning, daring and physical beauty.
A tigers first bounds are so rapid as to
bring it alongside an antelope, and a
blow of its paw win stun charging
bull. 1t has been known to spring over
a wall i've feet high into cattle pen
and to jump back with full grown
animal in its jaws. Sportsmen say
they have known it to carry away the
bait while they were putting up the
shelters from which to shoot 1t.
1t is fact, however, that the tiger
makes no pretense to invinMble cour-
age. as may be seen In the instance Of
one kept in the Calcutta geological
gardens. which was butted to death by
a ram. A soldier owned a fighting
ram. which became so troublesome it
had to be sent to the zoo. There 1t
caused so much annoyance it was de-
cided to give tito the great tiger.
The tiger was SO ferocious its food
was let down through sliding graf
ing in the roof Of its cage. The ram
was lowered down. The tiger, doing
in one corner, saw the ram descend
and. rising, began to stretch itself. The
ram, not knowing he was intended to
be food for the big beast. supposed the
stretching was the signal for fight.
Stepping nimbly back to the farthest
corner Of the cage. it put down its
head and went straight at the tiger
and in a few minutes butted it to
death.-New York Press.
