NELSON'S FIGHTING MEN." Had Few Pleaaura*. and Faced Death With a Jest. Os tne “wooden wails of England.” the great sailing ships in which Admiral Nelson won his victories, and of the men who worked them, a critic writes: “Though beautiful to behold and terrible to tight with, those old men-of-war wer» tnare often than not abodes of tyranny and wretchedness. The violence of the press gangs, which seized men of all ages and occupations, was but a prelude to the oppression that followed. Decent men were herded indiscriminately with ruffians, the rights of free born Englishmen were ruuely snatch d from tbeffi—for them thenceforward there was no law save the will of the captain and the dread articles of war. Shore going leave was nonexistent, the food was atrocious and scanty, punishments were barbarous. and the only thing served out with any liberality was rum. on which the men got drunk and then were flogged for that offense at the gratings next morning. “In Nelson's time the seaman had few pleasures save the prospect of a hot tight and his daily pint of rum. But to these must be added the vainglorious satisfaction be took In his clothes. When rigged out in his best he frequently wore rings in Lis ears and silver buckles ou his low shoes, his short blue jacket would be decorated with gold buttons and colored ribbons sewed down the seams to give an additional gayety, his waistcoat might be red or canary, aud a black silk handkerchief would be knotted loosely round his throat. As the finishing touch his hair would be hanging in a cue down his back. The broad collars were first worn as a protection against the grease aud pomatum used in dressing the pigtail. “But all these fripperies were discarded when the guus were cast loose from tbeir lashings and the linstocks were lighted. It was the custom of the men when going into action to strip to the waist. They took their black silk handkerchiefs and bound them very tightly round their heads over their ears, so that the roar of the guns might not deafen them for life. It was remarked that men going into action always wore a sullen frown, however merry they were in their talk. “Methods followed in that day were curiously primitive and toilsome, but the results were undoubtedly satisfactory save to the nameless and numberless sailors who met grim death on the 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 a jest or a cheer only renders their unconscious heroism the more impressive.”—Chicago News. Four Good Remoni. An amusing incident "happened the other day at a club which had hospitably thrown open its doors to two other clubs. A certain well known offictr in the brigade of guards was guilty of the offense of smoking in the morning room. As a matter of fact, he was under the impression that it was the smoking room. A brother officer told him of his mistake. He went up to the only other occupant of the room, an old gentleman dozing in a corner, and apologised for having inadvertently broken one of the rules of the club. The old gentleman replied, without haste, as follows: “My dear sir. pray do not apologize. In the first place. I am sure you would not have smoked had you known that it was prohibited: in the second. I should be the last person to blame you if you had done so; In the third. I run not a member of the club, and in the fourth. I have just been smoking myself."—London Globe. The Empire of Dollars. Wall street is the capital of the empire of dollars. Like all other capitals, it has its intrigues, its favorites, its duels, its cabals and its camarillas, and, like all other capitals, it gives its color to those who spend their lives there. It has even a sort of patriotism —“wolf honor”—which brings its citizens together at times in defense of the dollar and of property rights. The empire of dollars is not altogether a noble spectacle. We are not thrilled at the mere thought of those Venice bankers who “financed” the crusaders. We do not like to think of those Wall street manipulators who tried to corner the gold supply during our civil war, when the nation needed gold.—Samuel Merwin In Success Magazine. Time For a Change. What shall we do with our parents? There is my father ruining himself and me by his willful ignorance and my mother ruining us by her extravagances. It is a great development of the times that the ordinary child who is past twenty is altogether better educated, more experienced and wiser than are his parents! It has occurred to me to suggest that after the eldest child reaches twenty the parents should therefore come under the control of the children.—Letter in London Graphic. : . Belgium Shrimp Horses play an important part in I shrimp fishing along the Belgian coast. A procession of weather beaten fishermen starts from the shore, each man mounted upon the back of a trained horse, dragging the triangular purse shaped net which scoops in the shrimp as it passes over the sands. These fishermen on horseback frequently make hauls of several hundredweight tn a single trip. “David Harum,” the novel written ; by the late Edward Noyes Westcott, netted the author’s estate about $125,000, according to a statement made in the surrogate's court, Syracuse.

The original Walter Fitzalan, brother of the ancestor of the dukes of Norfolk, was lord high steward of Scotland, and from this circumstance his branch of the family appears to have adopted the name of Stewart. When the change began is not certain, but it was probably not later than the time of Alexander, the great-grandson of Walter Fitzalan, for both his sons—James, the grandfather cf Robert 11. and all the Scottish Stewart kings, and John, the ancestor or Lord Darnley—appear to have borne the name of Stewart. — Notes and RAILROADS.
