CITY KEEPS PENn'S PROMISE
Philadelphia Still Maintains Camping
Grounds for indians If They Care
to Visit Metropolis.

Historical Philadelphia we all know,
or should know, well, but there are
very few who have ever heard of some
of the old, t-of-the-ordinnry things
that go to form quaint Philadelphia.
One scarcely connects Indians with
the city nowadays. and yet at this
present time If tribe of Indians
should care to visit Philadelphia they
would find two camping grounds await
ing them in the very heart of the city.
One lies between Broad and Juniper
streets, in the rear of the Ritz Carlton
Hotel, while the other one is down on
Second street. Years ago, when Penn
made his treaty with the Indians, he
promised them that place would be
kept for them and their descendants
forever, where they could camp when
they came 10 PHILADELPHIA; and while
these plots of ground are not large,
yet they still stand there in fulfllment
of PENIS promise.
The old shot tower down on Second
street belongs, too. to Quaint Philudel.
phin. 1t dates back to the early days
Of The republic. In those days there
were none of our up-to-dutc methods
for making shot round, and the method
then employed was to drop the melted
metal from II height into water, thu.
forming 1t into round balls or shot.

Cast Dice for Bibles.

The Bible Orchard is piece of land
in the parish of st. Ives, Hants, Eng
land. DIR. Robert Wilde, who died in
August, 1878, bequeathed ESQ, the year
ly interest on which was to be expend-
ed in the purchase of six bibles, not
exceeding the price of rs Cd each,
which should be "cast for by dice" on
the communion table of st. Ives on
the last Thursday of May, by six boys
and six girls of the town. Hence the
day is known as Bible Thursday"
The capital sum was invested In
what is known as Bible Orchard.

~eird" Without His Feathers.

An amusing story is being related
n London reminiscent OF Gallipoli
lays. 1t tells of General Birdwood,
whose wont it was to move freely
about among his troops, often in the
heat Of the day. clad only in khaki
shorts and a shirt, and his coat, with
he customary stripes and insignia OF
his rank, discarded. He was talking
,ne day, with an Australian private
Who, quite ignorant of the generals
IDENTIFY, was losing casually against
he side of trench, and addressing
ais commander In chief quite as an
,qual, much to the dlsmay of nearby
iubaltern. When the general had
passed along, this Sub" took 1t upon
himself to enlighten the private of the
,normity of his ignorance. At the fin
sh of the Junior officers harangue
Iaid the private to the sub: VERY
sorry, sir, but how was / to know who
lie was? Why doesn't he wear his
feathers, like any other bird wouldT
