A SHIP OF TUDOR TIMES.
Timbers Unearthed Said to Be of the
Reign of Henry VIII.
From the Boston Transcript.

From the Boston Transcript
At the present time there is a contro-
versy raging IN England over some Old
ship timbers. Ono party contends that
the remains are those of a warship OF the
time of Henry VIII, the Henri Grace a
Dieu; while the other believes them L. b.
portions of Sir Francis brakes famous
flagship, the Golden Hind
J. Seymour Lucas, Royal Academy, the
British artist after seeing the relics has
come to the conclusion that they are
those of a sixteenth century vessel, posi-
bly, the famous Henri Grace a Dieu. This
craft was burned at Woolwich in 1853 1t
was little more than twelve months ago
that the borough council of Woolwich
In preparing site for new electricity
station on the south bank of the Thames
first unearthed the timbers of this old
ship. The late Sir William White then
inspected them and WAS of the opinion
that they came from an eighteenth
tury merchant vessel. The authorities
were not very keen. if this was SO, to
preserve the remains.
The theory of Mr.. Lucas. the artist who
painted THE Armada in Sight" has put
quite new aspect on the matter. He
considers that the cloSeness of the ribs
and size of the keelson are irrefutahle
evidence of the date of the hull. In :iddi-
ton he has seen two wheels evidently
from a gun carriage of the time OF Hen
ry VIII: some stone cannon balls aud
pieces of EliZabethan pottery, all taken
out of the hull. The theory that tn" ves-
sci is the Henri Grace a Dieu is put for
ward by the Woolwich Antiquarian So
ciety. There was a dock built at Wool
wich in 1o21, to which the hull OF the
Henri Grace Dieu was taken after the
fire which destroyed her upper works
and rigging. The question then arises.
How came the hull to be buried? 1t is
believed that after the hull had been
placed in the dock something in the ma
ture of a landslip occurred, which re-
moved both ship and dock bodily. This.
at any rate. is held to explain the cir
cumstance that part of the timbers are
still sunk beneath AN old house. Very lit
tie is known concerning the methods of
ship construction in vogue IN the reign
of Henry VIII, and it is not surprising
that expert opinion is divided as to
whether the Woolwich wreck may be
taken TO be that of the Henri Grace a
Dieu.
1t was the Henri Grace a Deu which
Henry VIII built in 1918 that was burned
at WoolWich in 155:i. In this vessel Hen
ry VIII embarked at Dover MAY n. l,1h,
to meet Francis ! at the Field OF the
Cloth of Gold the incident beIis thu Sai'-
ject Of a picture By ilolbein in llamptoI
Court Palace. For the present ihcr" + a
good deal of doubt about the identity nl
the relics at Woowicil. and il would
therefore be premature to accept the thu
ories put forward. but undoubtedly tire
possibility of ship of Tudor times be-
ing recovered is causing widespread in
terest and already there haze been sew
eral offers of financial help to reconstruct
the hun of the vessel.

Post Office Names.
From the Tacoma Ledger.


The history of the origin of post Office
names affords many amusing facts. Not
a few of the names grow out of blunders
in writing or spelling. The Post Office
Department presumably hasn't the time
to conduct special investigation in
every neighborhood. so 1t often jumps to
conclusions or draws upon its imagina-
tion. In the Princeton Press of West
Virginia we find a curious instance of a
name conferred upon a post office because
of an error in one letter OF a petition.
There is district in that state known
as Hill TOP. When the people of HLli
Ton decided to ask for "A post office "A
petition was drawn M, and forwarded To
Washington city The writer was not
careful to dot the ''i' in Hill Instead.
he made sort of loop that was inter
preted as an ''e." Call Il post office Hell
Top? That would never do. 1t shocked
the agents of Uncle Sam. But they
thought they would comply as closely as
possible with local sentiment so they
named the post office ''Tophet." Tophet
was q hill on which the refuse OF Jern-
salem was dumped and burned. The fires
were almost continuous, and hence To-
phet came to signify he'll. or place OF
endless pcrdition. Many post office names
are duplicated. but West Virginia boasti

his head and observe them.

at the top of his voice.
Mrs. Hickey, red and mortified, tried
everything she knew. She promised all
manner of pleasures If he would only
come away. He planted his feet firmly
and refused to bulge. 1t was only when
she thought to hail a passing taxi that
he condescended to accompany her.
Il like "A machine" he said. His tears
dried as if by magic. Papa lets me run

All of the ride home he was angelic.
Mrs Rickey's fears began TO subside.
"I guess I'll get along all right" she
thought to herself. Il always did with
children"
Toms toys and clothes had arrived the
day before. Mrs. Hickey changed his
suit and put him on the pleasant porch
to play. For time all went well. And
then arose cries such as she had never
heard She hastened to the door, her
old heart trumpeting alarm.
What is it? What is it," she cried.

And Mrs Hickey saw little Jerry Slaven.

fashion against the picket fence. why,

said "You couldn't make me think he
would. No, darling. Jerry has just been

Hickey, essaying to pick him UP in her
arms.
But Tom would not be picked UP. He
struggled and kicked until she was glad
to set him free.
The day wore away, with other out
breaks Some were larger and some
smaller but all were about nothing. and
Mrs Hickey was glad when bedtime
came Bedtime brought tears again, the
first with which Mrs. hickey could SYM
pathize. And she held him close until he
was comforted.
The first day was but the beginning of

she began to develop nerves. She started
at a sound. Her sleep was no longer
sweet Her neighboring friend watched
her with anxious eyes. They talked Tom
over together.
