MUZZLED THE PRESS.
Sir Roger L'Estranse Was the Worst
 Censor In History.

Sir Roger L'Estrange Was the Worst
 Censor In History.
 The severest press censor of which English history bears record was Sir Roger L'Estrange. This worthy was appointed to the post in 1868. and he threw himself whole heartedly into his duties. According to c. B. Roylance Kent. "he suggested that the number of master printers in London be reduc- ed from sixty to twenty. that printing offices be subject to inspection and have no back doors and that in addi- tion to the ordinary reasonable and seditious publications culprits convict ed of small infrastions of the law be condemned to wear some visible badge or mark of ignominy, as a halter 1n- stead of a hatband, one stocking blue and another red. blue bonnet with red letter T or s upon it.
 Rut L'Estrange went further. He was opposed to newspapers altogether, because the reading of them makes the multitude too familiar with the actions and counsels of their superiors. too pragmatical and censorious and gives them not only an itch, but kind of right and license to be meddling with the government" All newspaper criticisms on the government were vigorously suppressed during his cen sorship. Indeed. he succeeded so ef- fectively in muzzling the press that "his majesty said several times he wondered how it could be done."- London Chronicle.

ST. GAUDENS' GOLD COINS.
This Country Did Not Appreciate Their

This Country Did Not Appreciate Their
 Art, Says Critic.
 All the arts but one, says Layton Crippon in his book. "Clay and Fire" show degradation today, in many cases degradation so great that they have virtually ceased to exist We have not only forgotten how to make beautiful things, but we have even acquired an instinctive dislike of beautiful things. They seem to have become offensive to us.
 There was recently one curious It, tie instance to which am tempted to refer showing as 1t did that in our present stage of degradation beauty is not only ignored. but has actually be- come offensive, causes instinctive dis. like. The St. Gaudens ten and five dol lar gold pieces were undoubtedly the noblest coins produced in any country in 200 years Within couple of months the American public had howl ed them out of circulation.
 '"The explanation was afterward made that the coins were disliked be- cause the relief was inconveniently high, but reference to the files of the New York or Chicago papers will con- vince anybody that the original outcry was against the design and only the design of these exquisite examples of die cutting. But America has no mo- nopoly of this instinctive hatred of beauty. It is exemplifed in the van. dalism that is now common all over Europe, the destruction of ancient and glorious buildings. usually without val fd oYouSap

Pulling Out Posts.

The trick of lifting oneself by ones boot straps may appear somewhat ditfi- cult. but machine has been built which does that. It is intended to pull out piles which have been driven in so firmly by pile driver that they cannot be pulled up by ordinary means. The machine is clamped to the top of the pile. which it grips firmly and auto matically. Steam is supplied through hose. The steam lifts q heavy weight in the machine and lets it drop sudden ly. By an arrangement of levers the force of the blow. instead of being downward on the top of the pile. is up- ward.
 The main difficulty ill pulling up pile is to get it started. but a quick se- ries of these blows soon starts the pile. The machine keeps knocking it up until it moves easily. when no more prog ress can be made. and the pile must be lifted out with ropes.-Saturday Even ing Post

OXYGEN GAS.
Tho Value of Rev. Joseph Priestley's
 Momentous Discovery.

The Value of Rev. Joseph Priestley's
 Momentous Discovery.
 Oxygen was discovered in the year 1774. Joseph Priestley. dissenting English clergyman who had turned scientist, obtained the hitherto un. known gas by 1gniting mercuric oxide. The oxygen he thus produced he called "dephlogisticated air.
 He and Benjamin Franklin had often discussed the mysterious composition of air and water. No one up to that time had determined what element it was in both which so invigorated the physical energies of man. It is said that Priestley made his actual dis covery of the oxygen while experiment. ing in a brewery near his home in England. He spent the last ten years of his life in the United States. voluntary exile.
 Today a monument stands in Eng. land to commemorate Priestley's dis covery. Were he alive, he could read of thousands of lives saved by his work. Oxygen is the only gas capable of supporting respiration. and is re peatedly used in the sick chamber to pull patient through crisis. Hel- nets equipped with oxygen attach ments enable the diver to go to ocean depths, the aviator to ascend into rari- fed air. the fireman to stand in dense smoke, and rescuers to descend into gas filled mines. So wide are its uses that some 100000 cubic feet of this gas are bottled in the United States every year.--New York Post

COUNTIES FOR SOLDIERS.
Prices England Had to Pay In the Past
 For Army Recruits.

For Army Recruits.
 At one time the system of offering huge money bounties was quite fea- ture of army recruiting in Great Brit ain. Prior to the peninsular war, how ever. the amount of the bounty had been reduced considerably, but the wastage in human material caused by that war raised the bounty again. and from f13 to ZIG was a common price right up to "Waterloo year," when it dropped to 2 guineas.
 The stress of the Crimean campaign also caused the war office authorities to open wide their purses. and so we find that in 1855 the price of cavalry man was FLO. while an infantryman received f2 less. All manner of ruses were tried to tempt men to remain in the service. and they were even offered money for every spent shell (sixpence for a large one and fourpence for a small one, that they brought to the commanding officer of artillery.
 Even in recent years war has forced us to offer ample money prizes to keep military units up to strength. certain reservists receiving f20 each for re Joining the colors in 1898. while soon after the South African war the short service men were tempted to remain serving by the offer of from f1O to f15 each.-Dundee Advertiser.

CIoo AlmanacS,

In early times in England the people used what were called clog almanacs. which remained in use till the begin ming of the eighteenth century. An old writer thus describes them:
 This almanac is usually square piece of wood containing three months on each of the four edges. The mum. Der of days ill them are expressed by notches, the first day by a notch with a patulous stroke turned up from it and every seventh by large sized notch Over against many of the notches are placed on the left hand several marks or symbols denoting the golden number or cycle of the moon. The festivals are marked by symbols of the several saints issuing from the notches.''
