In 1096 the crusade was creatingmuch talk, and Robert, who had ex-

Will the Conqueror was not onlyremembered bitterly in the broken heartsof his people, but in history his namewill stand out forever because of hisstrange and grotesque designs on pos-

and for five years he was not restored tohis kingdom. In the meantime Matilda,the widow of Henry L encouraged bythe prelat??. landed in England to layclaim to the throne, and after a greatdeal of ill feeling and much needed

her son Henry, who had be-

come quite a lsrge property owner inFrance, invaded England and finallysucceeded in obtaining recognition asthe rightful successor to Stephen. Ste-phen died in 1153. and Henry becamekinfr.

HOW THE GREAT MILITARY MAN MA-

NEUVERED FOR TIME.

Threw Trout From the Wagon to AppeaseBrcis's Appetite The Bears Wasted Big-

ger Game, hat Didst Get It The Old3IcKHe County Guide's Story.

"General Grant was a great lover oftrout fishing,' said a guide, "and thegreatest of all his outings' was at Kane,McKane county, Pa., in August, 1869.I received a letter late in July of thatyear requesting that I get everythingready for a two weeks' fishing tour onthe Oswayo creek.

'This stream flows through the north-western part of Potter county, one ofthe wildest forest sections. At that timeI was living at Kane and spent all mytime in the woods hunting and fishing.

"General Grant usually was accom-panied by one or more companions, butrhTs time he came to Kane alone. Itwas then, prior to leaving Kane far Os-

wayo creek, that General Grant wrotehis letter to Secretary of State Fishconcerning the belligerency of Cuba."We were delayed 24 hours on accountof that letter, because General Grantspent the whole day in thinking thesituation over. The general was glad toget the subject off his mind far the timebeing, as he remarked to me, '"Well,that settles Cuban matters with me un-til I return from this trout fishing trip.

"I had the general's rod and flies inshape. We got on my old spring wagonand started for a farmhouse near SharonCenter. The roads were rough, and bythe time we had covered the distance of37 miles we were tired out, and the oldhorse lay down. It was about 10 o'clockat night when we reached John Haber-steen- 's

home in the country. He hadbeen expecting us and assisted in put-ting up the horse and showed us therooms we were to occupy. "We did notgo to the trout stream the followingday. 'Rest is more desirable than trout,is the way the general put it.

"While Habersteenwas not acquaint-ed with Grant prior to our arrival, hewas a fast friend of mine, as we hadgone to school together. General Grantsoon made a warm friend of Habersteen.

"The first day's fishing along Os-

wayo creek was successful, and we re-

turned with a number of trout. It wasa difficult place to reach, and the coun-try simply abounded with wild game.The general was fond of seeing deer gothrough the weeds and was not a bitafraid of bears.

"General Grant was an expert fisher-man and could whip a stream with anyof the pot fishers. He would never fishfor trout with bait. But if it so hap-pened that he had lost all his flies, hewould put on whatever he could findand continue to whip the stream. Thetwo of us in five days' fishing caught712 trout, all good sized ones. We atesome of them, and the rest were packedin ice to be sent to friends.

"I shall never forget our return fromSharon Center to Kane. We had every-thing on the spring wagon, includingthe iced trout. After traveling aboutfour miles we passed through an excep-tionally heavy wcodland, and when wewere about 200 yards from the woodstwo bears made fheir appearance. Theytrotted along after us at a gait thatshowed us that they were gaining onthe horse. They evidently had scentedthe fish and were wishing- - for a goodmeaL

"We did not feel much afraid untilwe came to discover that our guns andrevolvers were left behind at Haber-steen s house. The bears were gradual-ly gaining on us, and it was time to bethinking about doing something.

" ' What's to be done in a case of thiskind?" queried the generaL

'"The ouiy thing I know of is todrive so fast that they can't catch up, 'I replied. Bnt the faster we drove themore rapidly the bears ran.

"'1 know how to get away fromthem, exclaimed Grant. 'We will throwtrout to the ground, a few feet apart,and as the bears stop to pick them upwe will gain so much by every fish.

"Weill that looked like" a greatscheme. We began throwing the fishout, two or three at a. rime. The bearsbegan to pick them up, but I'll be con-twist- ed

if they didn't start to give thetrout the go by and hasten their steps tocatch up to the wagon. All the timewe kept throwing choice trout into theroad to coax them bears to quit thechase.

"We concluded that the old horsewould have to hurry. The whip was ap-plied. We lost the bears, and in the vil-lage related the story of the bears fol-lowing us to several farmers, who gotguns and started after them.

"Do you know what those confoundedbears were doing when they foundthem? They stopped at the end of thetrout trail and for a distance of a mileand a half back had eaten nearly allthe trout. They evidently wanted big-ger game, and when they saw theycould not get it they were content to eattrout-- The bears were overtaken andkflled.

"At the Tillage we looked to see howmany trout we had left. To our surprisewe had only 250 out of the 700." NewYork Press.

Lnclc"There is no such thing as luck, "

said Colonel North once, "Everybodyin this world has chances yes, every-body, from the working collier whostrikes a seam of coal which was neverthought of by the mining engineer tothe colliery proprietor who gets infor-mation regarding that seam and re-solves to work it. What people callluck simply means that a man sees hischance, holds on to it and at the rightmoment works it for himself. Luck?Nonsense! Luck is simply the facultyof seizing passing opportunities. "

TRYING A CURIOUS PLAN.

Xeachlacr 3odera Science la the Oldest ofOrieatal XA&gHsge.

The Punjab province of India hasbeen for some years the scene of an in-

teresting academical experiment, thatof communicating western science, phi-losophy and literature to the peoplethrough their mother tongue, and to theeducated through their learned lan-guages, and not in an English dress, aselsewhere.

vprvrs asm Mjimnlrrc- - nndDuff destroyed the very different pernicious system ox DnDing native studentsof Sanskrit, Persian and Arabic to readtheir own sacred books. Gradually thelearned classes came to be left out ofour state system of public instruction,with evil results. Sir Donald McLeodaccordingly devised and Sir CharlesAitchison carried out the plan of atonce attracting these, in the Punjab atleast, by oriental titles and degrees,and of examining all students for theordinary university degrees through themedium of their own vernacular. ThePunjab university and its oriental col-

lege were founded at Lahore for thesetwo ends. . ..

The latest report of the Edinburghgraduate, Mr. J. Sime, M. A., who isdirector of the department, is not veryfavorable to the success of the doubleexperiment, now some 18 years old. Hedeclares that "the prospects of advancededucation through the medium of thevernacular are not improving" at least,and Sir Dennis Fitzpatrick, the lieuten-ant governor, has ordered a special re-port on the subject. In the Orientalcollege last year only 5 students werereading for the title of Shastri, or hon-ors in Sanskrit; 14 for Yisharada, orhigh proficiency in the same; 11 forManlavi Fazil, or honors in Arabic; 7for Manlavi Alim, or high proficiency;7 for Munshi Fazil, or honors in Per-sian ; 7 for Munshi Alim, and 7 for theGurmukhi title in the Sikh vernacular.Of the 117 candidates in the local uni-versity in Sanskrit a third passed. OfS3 in Arabic two-thir- ds passed, and soin Persian and Gurmukhi. The only en-

couraging fact is that every year thenumber of the Pundit class who takehonors and degrees in Sanskrit is ris-ing, and more than half of them go tothe Punjab examinations from the oth-er provinces where there are no suchtests. Edinburgh Scotsman.

LEGAL PLEA FOR HER HAND.

Able Argument of Coansel Involving Per-sonal Intercuts.

The judge's daughter was perturbed."Papa, " she said, knitting her pret-

ty brow, "I am in doubt as to whetherI have kept to the proper form of pro-cedure. In law one can err in so manylittle technicalities that I am ever fear-ful Now, last evening George"

The judge looked at her so sharplyover his glasses that she rnvoluntarilypaused.

'I thought you had sent him abouthis business, " he said.

"I did hand down an adverse deci-sion," she answered, "and he declaredthat he would appeal. However, I con-

vinced hrm that I was the court of lastresort in a case like that and that noappeal would lie from my decision."

"Possibly the court, was assuming alittle more power than rightfully be-

longs to it, " said the judge thoughtful-lv- ,"but let that pass. What did he do

then?""He filed a petition for a rehearing.""The usual course," said the judge,

"but it is usually nothing but a mereformality,"

So I thought," returned the girl,Mand I was prepared to deny it withoutargument, but the facts set forth in hispetition were sufficient to make me hes-

itate and wonder whether his case hadreally been properly presented at thefirst trial"

"Upon what grounds did he make theapplication?" asked the judge, scowling.

"Well,' she replied, blushing a lit-tle, "you see, he proposed by letter, andhis contention was that the case was ofthat peculiar character that cannot beproperly presented by briefs, but de-

mands oral arguments. The fact thatthe latter had been omitted, he held,should be held to be an error, and thepoint was such a novel one that I con-

sented to let him argue it. Then his ar-

gument was so forceful that I grantedhis petition and consented to hear thewhole case again. Do you think"- -

"I think," said the judge, "that thecourt favors the plaintiff. " ChicagoPost

IN HARD LUCK.

Two 33n Who Were Peculiarly CheatedOut of Square Meals.

"Yes," said the reformed miner, "Iam back from Cripple Creek, and thatis the best of my luck. I got away.Here is a sample of the ill fate I hadto contend with: I struck the campwithout a cent, for I hadn't done any-

thing but lose all along the line. I hunt-ed up Johnnie Costello, and the best hecould do was to get me a meal ticket atthe Blue Bell one of those 21 mealsfor 4 affairs and every time you eatthey punch a figure. I wasn't long us-ing it, and stepped out on the sidewalkcontaining the first resemblance to asquare feed I had held for some days. Agust of wind came down from betweenTenderfoot and Mineral hills, where allthe puffs originate, and blew the mealticket out of my hands. It landed faceup on the sidewalk, ten feet or so away,and before I could recover it a big 00pound Cornish miner stepped on it. Heware heavy boots, with hobnails in 'em,and as sure as I'm a living man thenails in his heel punched out the re-

maining 20 squares."A similar melodrama, whose plot

swung and rattled about a restaurantticket, had its scene in Chicago. It was ;

before the days when gold cures offeredtemporary relief to those addicted tothe rosy. One young man, naturally ofa thriffer habit, reached, a jxnt in his .

life when he learned that rf he becamethirsty he became very much so. Inquelling this thirst he was apt to squan-der all the money he had saved sincethe last time. So it came that, beingphilosophic, he rose superior to his pro-pensity for thrift and disposed of hissalary as fast as he earned it Therebyhe got due and proper action for hismoney, and also appreciably shortenedthe length of his drunks. Having noreserve fund, he could not continue hisliquor consuming career for long. OneMonday he detected the stealthy ap-

proach of the thirst. He had become sowise that he could tell it 18 hours away.It was his salary day, and, knowingfull well his weakness, the first invest-ment he made was in a meal ticket.

On the Thursday following the nexthe saw the sun. The interval was partblank and part confusion cf red lights,cabs and schooners. He had not a centin his clothes, and was as hungry as ashipwrecked sailor. He dug up his mealticket and went around to Calhoun place

the restaurant was situated thereinbut Calhoun place was blockaded. Fire-men were half way up the alley play-ing their hose on the smoldering ruinfrof the restaurant. Chicago

THE GAME BUTCHERS' WORK.

Wanton Slaughter by Hunters In the Jack-son Hole Country.

The American Field jumps upon theforeigners who come to the UnitedStates, seek out those localities wheremost of the big game is to be found,and then lay themselves down to thework of slaughtering it with rifles. Afavorite resort of these game butchersis the Teton basin. Here are found elk,deer and antelope, which are being killed off rapidly. The Teton basin, Jack-son's Hole, is much lower than the Na-tional Yellowstone park, and much ofthe big game migrates south to it, as awarmer climate is to be found in thevalley. It is here that the hunters fromabroad congregate, and in spite of theWyoming state laws kill game wanton-ly. If these men would kill a couple ofheads of each kind, taking care of themeat, and following up wounded game,little or no objection would be made.

These hunters, some of whom areAmericans, pass through the Nationalpark on their way home with wagonloads of skins and horns. The law inrelation to transporting game readsthat "possession within the park of thedead bodies or any part thereof of anywild bird or animal shall be prima fa-cie evidence that the person or personshaving the same are guilty of violatingthis act." With this act behind himthe superintendent could squelch thewholesale slaughterers of game in theregion of the Yellowstone park, accord-ing to The American Field. CaptainAnderson, the superintendent, is urgedto make an effort to enforce the law.What would be better yet would be theannexation of the Jackson's Hole coun-try to the Yellowstone park.
