NELSON'S FIGHTING MEN.
■at r«w aa* Firrd Death
Wild • J eat.
Of the "wooden waiU of England."
tbe great nailing ablpa In whleii Admi-
ral Nelaon won bia victories, and of tbe
men wbo worked tbem, a critic write*:
"Tbongti beautiful to bebold and twri-
ble to Qgbt with, tboae old men-of-war
were more often titan not abode* of
tyranny and wretcbedneaa. Tbe vio-
lence of tbe preaa fane*, wbirb seized
men of all age* and ocrapatioua, waa
twt a prelude to tbe oppr^sion tbat
followed. Decent men were iierded in-
diaerlmiuately witb ruffians, tbe rigbta
of free l oru Englishmen were rudely
anatcbed from tbem -for tbetn thence-
forward there waa no law aave the
will of tbe captalu and tbe dread arti-
cle* of war. Shore going leave waa
aooex latent, tbe food waa atrocious
and scanty, peuiabuieuta were barbar-
ous, snd the only thing nerved out with
aay liberality was rum. on wfaicb tbe
oieu gut drunk and tben were flogged
for tbat often** at tbe grating* next
morning.
"In Nelaon'a^time the aeuman had
few pleaaurea aave tbe proapeet of a
hot fight and bia daily pint of rum.
Bat to theae uiuat be added the vain-
glorious aatisfaetion be took in his
eiotbes. When rigged out In bis beat
be frequently wore ring* in bia ears and
silver bucklea on bia low shoes, bia
abort blue Jacket would be decorated
wttb gold buttons snd colored ribbons
sewed down the aeama to give an addi-
tional gayety. hia waiatcoat might lie
red or canary, and a black silk hand-
kerchief would lie knotted loosely
round bia throat. Aa the finishing
touch hia bair would be hanging in a
cue down bis tack. Tbe broad collars
were first worn as a protection against
tbe greaae and potnutuui used in dress-
ing the pigtail.
"But ull these fripperies were dis-
carded when tbe guna were cast loose
from their laaliiuga and tbe linstock*
were lighted It wss tbe custom of tbe
men when going into action to atrip to
tbe wu 1st. They took tbeir black ailk
handkerchief* and bound tbem very
tightly round their beada over their
oars, so that tbe roar of tbe gun* might
not deafen tbem for life. It was re-
marked tbat men going Into action al-
ways wore a xulleu frown, however
merry they were in their talk.
"Method* followed in tbat day were
curlou*|v primitive and toilsome, but
tbe result* were undoubtedly satisfac-
tory save to the nnmelca* and number-
less sailor* wbo met grim death on tbe
black and blood stained decks or in the
dark horror of the cockpit. That those
hardy and careless men often faced
death or disablement with n Jest or a
cheer only renders tbeir unconscious
heroism the more Impressive."—Chica-

An a musing incident happened the
•iber T.ay nt a club which had hospi-
tably thrown open its doors to two
other clubs. A certain well known offi-
cer In the brigade of guards was guilty
of the offense of smoking In the morn-
ing room. As a mutter of fact, be was
andcr tbe taprMeioo tbat It was tbe
smoking room. A brother officer told
him of his mistake. He went up to tbe
only other occupuut of tbe room, nu
old gentleman dozing in a corner, aud
apologized for having inadvertently
broken one of tbe rule* of tbe club
Tbe old gentleman replied, without
baste, as follows: "My dear sir. pray
do not apologize. In tbe lirst place, I
am sure you would not have smoked
had you knowu tbat It was prohibited;
In the second, I should l>e the last per-
son to blame you If you bad done so*,
ia the third, I am not n member of tbe
dnb. and in the fourth, I have Just
been smoking myself."- l/oudoa <iiot-e

A young lady endowed with the
most sensitive nerves mentioned one
evening to a few friends assembled in
ber drawing room tbat sbe had a hor-
ror of tbe rose. "Tbe perfume of this
Sower," said she, "gives me a severe
headache and faintness." Tbe conver-
sation was interrupted by tbe visit of
u fair friend wbo wore a rosebud in
ber headdress. Oar fair heroine turned
pale directly, tossed ber arms and Mi
gracefully in a swoon u|ton tbe otto-
man.
"What a at rouge nervous suscepti-
bility! What a delicate aud Impres-
sionable organization!" cried tbe spec-
tators. "For mercy's sake, madam, go
away! Don't you see tbat you have
caused this attack Y'
"I?" replied tbe astonished lady.
"Yes, of course it Is tbe perfume of
tbe rosebud in your balr."
"Really, If It Is so I will sacrifice tbe
guilty flower, but Juoge before you
sentence."
Tbe (lower, detached from tbe bead-
dress. was passed from bund to hand
among the spectators, but their solici-
tude soon gave way to a different emo-
tion. The fatal rosebud was an arti-
ficial oue!—I ndon Leader.

A Bra va Sallar.
There Is a tablet In tbe sailors' borne
at Melbourne to Jamea Marr. He was
a sailor bef>>re the mast ou tbe Bip.
On July 15. 187a, tbe Uip was caaght
lu a squall. Marr sat astride of the
gaff when a great wave broke over tbe
boat and brought down the mainmast
There was only one chance to save the
Uip. Tbat was to cut away the litter.
But Marr clung to tbe broken spur, and
to cut away meant to send biin over-
board to death. So, looking at biin
doubtfully, tbe men bedtated. their
axes in tbeir hands. Marr, helpless,
pondered. He saw that bia deaib
would be the boat's salvation, and be
shouted:
"Cot away, mates! Good by!"

According to John Stow, chronicler
aud antiquary, about 15nn. who wrote
and published "ftatnmarie of Knglysh
< brouicles," Sir William Csllingwood
was executed in 14S4 for writing the
following political squib. In a manner
wbicb. In hia day. was considered most
excellent wit:
The rat. the cat and Lovel the do*
Rule all England under the Hog
This was during the reign of Bicb-
ard III., at a time when tbe chief
agents of his evil schemes were Cates-
by, Katcliff and Lovel. Lovel was tben
a common name f ir a d >g and aa a
white boar was displayed ou tbe king's
escutcheon the reference to a "hog'
was obvious and so offensive that it
brought about the writer's death.

color to those who spend their lives
there. It has even a sort of patriotism
-' wolf honor"—which brings Its citl
Kens together at times in defense of
th dollar and of property rights. The
empire of dollars Is not altogether a
noble spectacle We are not thrilled at
tbe mere thought of those Venice bank

do not like to tbiuk of those Wall
