Had you pressed them for a res- son, perchance they knew not why they ‘were there at all, If it were not that Roy of Calverton had bidden them. And the humor of their employment was not to be forgotten by any man.

Almost in a flash, says the dispatch relating the affair, fourteen flasks of whisky were exposed and offered in the crowd, one flask having written on it the prescription: 'Good at any drug store.” A Chicago dairyman, charged with sell- ing Impure milk, breught into court six women with bables too young to talk, but whose looks bespoke good health. The mothers testified that the bables were fed on milk furnished by the defendant, and the bables themselves were put in evidenco as exhibits A to F inclusive. When two of the exhibits cried the court had to admit that their lung power afforded presumptive proof that thore were no tuberculosis germe in the milk.

Here, you shall see a bevy of urchins to herald it. They wave boughs; boughs cover their nakedness. Or look wgain and number that naked bevy whose Tags stream as banners, whose very faces are smeared with dirt! Wil such win “If my lord of Pembroke be yet out of petticoats, he hath this Wyatt, surely! Nevertheless, I mistrust him, comrades. There is a man’'s work to do In London; belike our hands shall be needed there!™ He pressed on at a canti upon the main high road as though the echo of the distant clamor were some signal to him, and being come to Charing, he asked vainly for tidings of my lord’s men. The din of riot was not here. Such rebels as over their foes. For God and Queen Mary this day—now at lemgth the prayer is answered. For yonder is Wyatt sinking impotent before Ludgate, and yonder is Sir Morris Barclay, who ehall carry him to St. James and the scaffold. “I have kept touch,” he says. Touch hath he kept, indeed, but the band is clammy as the fingers of death. “What shall I say of thee If it is not that thou are a worthy daughter of himn who ruled at Ollerton? God send thee light, my daughter. Thou wilt yet be of our holy faith."” My lady would not make him any answer, but to Queen Mary she said very prettily: “Aye, of the faith which has won your majesty’s love today!" At sundown the forty rode out of London to Sherwood and their home. The city lay magistrate the other day for persistent at- tempts to fiirt with a respastable young woman of that eity who was waiting at the doer of a etore for her husband. In de- livering sentence the court stated that it would be very dangerous hereafter for mashers to ply their contemptible trade in that town, At a beetsteak dinner given recently at Palm garden, Greene and Hamburg avenues, 1(‘Iol‘llCA(iO NEW YORK Three Trains wry ta pitons?

To these ever and anon a single horseman, fiying as from pursuit, gave assurance of Wyatt's victory, or was named a boaster by one that followed him. Malds watched from the windows of the houses or carried water to the wretched laggards who craved for God's sake. Bells were still tolling in the Minster cburch, cannon were heard from London bridge. But go a bundred paces to the flelds and all is of the common day again.

With destiny this man had wrestled, to destiny must he pay the price. Men sald that his bead would grin from Loundon bridge before the week had run. Those who had feared him greatly an hour ago would have torn him limb from limb if the archers had per- mitted. But the forty out of Sherwood closed about that pitiful figure; they beat the heralds of the night winged in the silent | woods. As some tragedy which twilight velled the story of the peril was blotted out | the best appetite, the contest belng for a in that’ gladness of victory, the day for- gotten in the morrow's hope. They rode for Sherwood and the north—aye, content, with what mutual consolation with what & tale to tell! Outlaws no lox the very law admitted their soverelignty. Henceforth no man should guestion their dominion; no sheriff mock them. They had staked all, won all Ip that fearsome throw. The feast alone remained—the beacons they would kindle, the cups they would pass, the bells they would ring in Sherwood's heart.

The others dlnner watched the contest with much enjoyment. The referee selected was Frank Ross, & partner of Hochwart, who claims to be the champlon steak eater of the country. The contestants started off eating three dozen little neck clams, six plates of chowder, thi loaves of rye bread and then the steaks were tackled. When Hochwart had finlshed seven and a half pounds of steak he withdrew from the contest, for Schmidt hatl just finished eight pounds. The umbrella was then awarded to Schmidt amid much applause.
