"a patiiotlc song was then sung by
the schooi children of Madison. A
NEST interesting address was then
given by Mrs. Evie H. Robinson
State regent of the Daughters of the
American Revolution and a member
of Ruth Cragin Chapter. The history
| of the expedition relative to this place
was given by Judge Augustine Sim
mons of North Arson, who is deputy
governor of the descendants of the
Maytlower of Maine.
After Falmouth was DESTROYED by
III" British the Central Court sent 400
soldiers to ala in guarding the coast
of Maine General Washington pro-
iected an expedition against Quebec.
The force consisted of about 100 men,
mainly infantry. Col Benedict
Arnold, whose patriotism was then
unsulled was placed in command The
troops sailed for Fort Weston which
was at the head of the tide-water on
the Kennebec river. They assembled
the river still farther in boats and
marched along painless banks en-
countering the most exhausting diff
culties until they reached a point
about 30 miles above Norridgewock.
IT was then about the 18th of October
Here small fort was built and a
small division left in garrison. There
was reason to fear that the whole
army would actually perish of hum
ger in the wilderness. Many barrels
of food were lost with guns and am
munition. On the Goth of October, he
reached the northern end of Lake
Megantis. Their distress was then
to press on regardless of military or
der in search of Canadian villages.
Often man would drop down in such
utter misery that in less than five
minutes he would be dead. On the Sth
of November, they reached Point Levi

American troops emerging from the
vast and dreary wilderness as unex-
pected as if they had descended from

Quebec might have been taken. but
the men were greatly exhausted.
Boats could not readily be secured.
Thus the golden opportunity was lost.
The British authorities fortified the
city. Arnold had about 700 men at
Point Levi. On the first of December,
General Montgomery arrived with
three armed schooners, 600 men and a
supply of food, clothing and ammuni-
ton. They made a united attack up
oh Quebec on the 31st of December.

is now Mrs. Henry Clews, Jr.) would dine at
the Baltimore Country Club on certain date.
This most cheering news. Mr.. Perins
spirits rose to meet the occasion. Mrs Lily
Langtry was in Baltimore and Mr.. Perrin had
been entertaining her his fathers private
trolley car. Mr.. Perrin remembered, as most
newspaper readers do, that long ago Mr.. Gerhard
had been very attentive to the Jersey Lily"
The opportunity obvious.
He lost no time in calling up the manager of
the Country Club and ordering fine dinner for
two on the day that Mr. Gerhard was to dine
there with his bride He neglected to mention
the name of his guest
Young Mr.. Perrin took geeful pains not to be
early in arriving at the club with his charming
guest. Doubtless, he pictured to himself the fine
dramatic effect of accompanying Mrs. Langtry
into the club dining room where Mr.. and Mrs
Gerhard would be already seated at their table
Perhaps he had delectable visions of pausing at
that table to give the two ladies the pleasure Of
each others acquaintance.
At any rate, he said to be in very cheer
full mood when he conducted Mrs Langtry into
the reception room.
But the club manager had seen them enter
and foresaw tragedy. He beckoned Mr.. Perrin
tC one side and said:
II am very sorry, Mr.. Perrin but you and your
guest will have to select another day for your
dinner here"
Mr. Perrin was properly indignant. Was he
not member of the club in good standing? He

But the prudent manager was adamant Mr.

The Mayor of Ronda interested. He had

Ronda was to have its share-a magnificent
mausoleum a modern monument of art The
Mayor of the city of Ronda was delighted
Certainly everything should be done by the
city authorities to encourage and assist the
young American millionaire. Would Mr.. Perrin
be satisfied if a special park laid out as
site for the proposed memorial?
When Mr.. Perins fame had been sufficiently
spread abroad in the community, the time was
ripe for the real joke. He went to high official
of King Alfonso's Cabinet and said:

For Lawrence Perrin to be at large may mean
trouble a&d embarrassment for crowned heads
and others without notice in almost any part of
the world. Lawrence is such merry wag, and
so active in his efforts to upset the established
order of things, that from tine time he has
had the interested attention Of the whole world
focused unCG MIN.
I'll February, 1910, shortly after diplomacy at
Washington had rescued him from the
perated Spanish nation he was carefully deposit
led within the iron-barred doors of Bloomingdale
Asylum, New York. This, doubtless accounts
for the subsequent serenity of the habtable
globe. But that peaceful period of nearly three
years may now be followed by almost any sort
of nerve-racking upheaval, for Justice of the
New York Supreme Court has declared Mr..
Perrin sane, and ordered him released.
Naturally, King Alfonso and others will i'm.
mediately inquire: What next?" For nobody
who has ever served a subject for Mr. Perin's
ocular experiments imagines that while he is at
large he will miss any golden opportunity that
occurs to his active mind
Mr.. Perrin is a rich man, of a rich family
the Perins, originally of Maryland-and, there
fore, does not need to seek financial aid in his
5ocular enterprises. He is not hampered by do
mestiC ties. His wife-who was the beautiful

Mr., Perrin to effervesce about once in so often.

In fact the White House doorkeeper could not
seem to see young Mr.. Perrin at all.
But they got him into carriage, and from
the carriage into another period of retirement.

U. s. WAREHOUSES; FAIRLY BURSTING
 WITH TREASURES

Washington, Aug. 5-Bonded ware houses at various points in the United States are fairly bursting with the great stocks of foodstuffs and mer- chandise awaiting withdrawal by their owners. The fact is set forth in a statement, today, by the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce which declares that goods to the value of $105, ,928, 884 were in the warehouses June 80, last. Two-thirds of the treasure is in the governments posses sion in the port of New York. Sugar, leaf tobacco and raw wool make up a heavy part of the stores. Chemicals,
 manufactures of cloth, fruit and nuts and manufactures of iron and steel also are heavily represented. The ap- preaching enactment of tariff Fegisla- ton by Congress is held responsible for the great stocks on hand.
