scrip Fact

Some interest was aroused IN tho
old country by the announcement
that n. R. H. the Duke OF Connaught
our guvernor-general, recently paid
visit to Ireland, no doubt to find out
for King George the axact position
of matters in the Emerald isle.
During his stay in Ireland the duke
was the guest Of Colonel John Leslie
veteran baronet who belongs to the
house of which the Earl Of Rothes Is
the head. Colonel Leslie, who was
formerly in the Grenadier Guards,
served In the Egyptian Expedition
and in South Africa. He Is q promi-
nent man in County Monaghan, which
his father formerly represented In the
house OF commons. There is an In
teresting legend-not accepted by the
family-concerning the motto which
Sir John Leslie and the Earl Of
Rothes have adopted-"Grip Fast. =
The story runs that as Queen Mar
garet of Scotland was crossing q
swollen river she was thrown from
her horse. A Leslie caught hold OF
her girdle, whereupon the Queen cried
out: Grip fast!" and, to mark her
gratitude, desired those words to be
retained as her rescuer's motto.

BOY sets new rage IN rd0eOys
A boy killed seven persons In q
farmhouse near Nantes, France, ono
night recently. The crime, which is
one of the most terrible recorded for
years was committed by boy Of flf-
teen, Marcel Redureau who murdered
the seven people, and then went home
to bed. Redureau was employed by
q farmer named Mabit in the village
of LIE Landreau He and the farmer
were working in the wine vat at ten
o'clock at night, when Mabit made an
observation to the boy which he re-
scented. Redureau, who had In his
hand ono OF the short sharp curved
knives used to trim the vines, imme-
diately stabbed tho farmer In the neck
This is tho boys own description Of
what happened, as the police took It
down from his lips when they had
saved him from being lynched by the
villagers: II did not deserve what
Mabit said to me. He had hts back
turned to me, and stabbed him with
the knife. Then l saw ned. I went
straight into the farmhouse and cut
old Madame Mabit's throat. She

servant came running. killed them

ALL PRAISE TO MARAALADE
Remarkably Capable Woman satisfied
She Owed Her Position 10 Tha<
Sweet Dish.

Two women-Queen Maud Of Mon
way and Queen Alexandra Of England
are geographically commemorated In
the new south polar region 20 lately
placed upon the map. Like honors
were accorded several women In the
far north many years ago. Lady
Franklin bay, named after the heroic
wife Of Sir John Franklin, p well
known through It's association with the
tragic story Of the Lady Franklin
Bay Expedition" under General
Greedy, thirty years ago.
Another distinguished woman, Lady
Franklin's friend, Mary Somerville, the
famous astronomer and mathemati-
clan, gave her name to tiny, frozen,
desolate dot in the Arctic seas. The
daughter of fine old fighting admiral.
Mrs. Somerville was always keenly In
terested in ships, sailors and explora-
lions. So when her friend, Sir Edward
Parry, was preparing for his third
arctic voyage, she laid in large sup
ply Of oranges, betook herself to her
kitchen, and made an amazing number
of jars of delicious orange marina
lade, which she sent to him as her
contribution to the ships stores.
Three years later, when the expedi-
ton returned Sir Edward informed
her that an island had been named In
her honor.
Because Of fame and friendship, he
says" she wrote, merrily. But l be.
lieve in my heart because Of some.
thing quite different-less sweet than
friendship, perhaps. but certainly, as q
woman's achievement, preferred by
most men to fame. My mathematics

rest of her sex In marmalade as In

none tho less q very capable house
wife, She was an economical man
ager, an exquisite needle-woman, and
an excellent cook. As young bride
she won the appreciation Of Doctor
Somerville's family, who shared the
contemporary prejudice against learn
ed ladies', by making, under the grave
difficulties presented by an ill-eQuip
ed, ramshackle country inn, the cleal
and delicious currant jelly that the
fancy Of q sick traveller craved.

The Very Human Worker.

A curious type Of labor dispute has
developed simultaneously in two DIFF
ferent directions In the shipbuilding
industry on the Clyde and among the
coal-trimmers at Cardiff. In each In
stance the trouble has been caused
by the fact that number of worx-
ers prefer the enjoyment Of their due
leisure to working overtime, even for
a considerable addition to their wages.
They are not willing to sacrifice their
half-holiday in order to gain more
money by doing more work, the less

to be a "precocious child. capable q

was strong and robust, with unusual
physical powers for child of his
age, and did render service to peti-

holds as a matter Of law that the child
thus described was not SO incapable
of performing such valuable services
that a defendant corporation would
not be liable in damages for the homo
eide of such child If 1t be shown on
the trial that the killing was through
negligence and not justified.
