TEMPLE CUP is FAMOUS

To the lover OF history the Temple
cup affords much interest. both on
account OF the original giver. the occa-
sion OF the gift, and the vicissitudes
through which Il has passed. The tra-
dition in the Temple family OF Vir-
ginia. is that Charles ii. after his ad-
venture in the oak tree, was very
grateful to all who helped him to es-
cape. and on his restoration TO the
throne he gave little silver cups TO
each OF his courtiers who had stood
by him, as a rlemento OF the occasion.
The cup. which the Temples still
own. is small silver hunting cup, ii
has the real ''tumbler" shape. and is
very substantial II is two and one
half inches high. II is engraved with
an oak tree. on which hangs a royal
crown. Around the body Of the cup
these words are engraved In Latin:
Let us honor the tree whose shade
has protected US" There is still an
other motto around the rim. but II is
almost obliterated by the hand OF
time, and only letter shows out here
and there. Once the cup was nearly
lost by fire. II was In the house OF
Robert Temple. ancestor to the pres
ent family OF Temple. which was de-
stroyed by burning As good luck

a poor old negro servant was taken

lowing 1t he became so happy" that
he forgot to return the cup and thus
the little relic was saved from the
fire which that night destroyed the
great house of his owner. and every
article OF furniture contained therein.
Just before the great battle of Fred
states, the cup was saved a second
time by Mrs. Marie Temple Wolf,
who then resided in the city. The
town was about to be attacked by the
enemy. and the order came for the
women and children to leave the city
before the firing began. Mrs. Wolf
procured a small wagon in which she
slowed away her six children, togeth-
er with a few things that were abso.

Richmond. After she had climbed
into the vehicle she remembered the
tiny cup and ran back and took II
from cabinet OF curios in which I
was always kept. and put II in her
pocket. on her return after the bat.

swept of its contents.
The cup was left by Mrs. Maria

fish has no power OF directing his
flight after he has left the water.
However. Mr.. Allingham. who is a
nautical expert attached to the British
Meteorological Office. and is in con-
slant intercourse with seamen, re-
ports many observations that tend to
controyert this opinion. Certain OBJ
servers claim that the wing-fins are
in constant rapid vibration, and seem
actually to serve the purpose OF flight.
One vessel master watched a fish
that had attained an altitude OF 20
feet above the water, and was flying
toward the mizzen rigging of his ship
when, apparently noticing the obstruc-
tion, It changed its course about go
degrees, crossing the vessels stern to
regain the water. Many other similar
observations are mentioned. A series
of cinematograph pictures might solve
this question once and for all.

of the trouble.
