Bo far as knighthood is to be regarded as a marK of eminence in literature, science or art, the result appears pretty ninth the same as that which Thackeray describes in one of his "Roundabout Papers" as likely to- have ensued if Georce HI had instituted the Order of Merit, which he once had in serious con templation. That order was to have been dedicated to Minerva, and Dr. Johnson himself was to have been the first president or grand cross or grand owl of the society. The iwmibcrs were to be adorned with a star of sixteen points and a yellow ribbon, and all the recognized luminaries of the literary, scientific and artistic worlds were to be enrolled among them. But how, Thack eray asks, whea they had all of them been admitted, could the door be shut against inferior claimants? How could you have excluded Sir Alexis Sover, Sir Alessan- dro, Tamburini. Sir Agostino Velluti, Sir Antonio Pasanini (violinist). Sir Sandy M'GolTog (piler to the most hon orable the Marquis of FannUisa), Sir Alcide Flic-flue (premier d.-.nstnr of her majesty's theater). Sir Barley Qmn and Sir Joseph Grimaldi ifroai Covent Gar den)? They," he adds, "have all the yellow ribbon. They are all honorable, clever aud distinguUhed artists. Let us elbow through the rooms, make a bow to the ladv of the house, give a nod to Sir George Thrum, who is leading the or cli -stra, and go in and get tome cham pagne aud seltzer water from Sir Rich ard, who is presiding at the buffet- This was intended to be a caricature when Thackeray wrote it. But it cer tainly reads a great deal more like 1 prophecy now. London World. Margaret Medium's . Managers. By Mrs. II. A. STANLEY. CHAPTER VIL "Jlotd one of these note up where the light will not jail airccuu on 11." "The provisions of this will command me to issue letters testamentary to Mr. Charles Blite. who is hers present, I ment, saYing nis money to aetena mm-' self with. He was acquitted by a jury of his neighbors. It was a merry and thankful company that assembled at the Med bury house that evening after the hearing before the surrogate, and when Mr. and Mrs. Simmons and John Hazeley left at a late hour the office problem had been settled satisfactorily to all concerned. Jack was to be business manager and dictate the editorial policy of the paper, for Simmons and Margaret seemed confi dent he could make no mistake. During the afternoon an arrangement had been made by wire whereby a talented edito rial writer from a neighboring city had been secured and placed in the position made vacant by Rnggles, the associate editor, who was promoted to the position made vacant by Mr. Blite's dismissal. As for Mr. Simmons, all he wanted was "the bookB," and he got them. It remains but to be said that Jack's policy was vigorous and wise, and that The Herald took an active part in the last political campaign, doing much for its party candidates. Always an ob server and a student. Jack has im proved vastly, rising equal to every emer gency. The year eighteen nnndred and ninetv-one was the most prosperous The Herald had ever known. In fact both the paper and its manager are so popu lar as to have influence even among op ponents. Jack is mentioned for con gress, and will without doubt go there in three years. It was recently annonnced that he was to marry the lady by whom he is employed, which proves conclu sively how she appreciates his manage ment. THE END. DR.

The piece had been going on fur some time in the. 01a nana to monin way, ana Thorne suddenly conceived the idea that he would like to see it himself.

As he paused in professional way he gazed over his spec tacles at a group of a dozen, among whom were Margaret, Jack, Simmons the Blites aud several court loungers including the shci-itx. There was momentary pause, and the surrogate had already motioned for his clerk tx come forward wheu Jack's steady tone! broke the silence: "There are some papers which bear 01 the issue cf letters, your honor, and as s representative of the sole heir at law demand that the court see them befort their holder is appointed executor and auditor of his own claims against Samuel Medbnry's estate. I n-fer to three notes aggregating f 12,000." Mr. Charles, whe looked somewhat uneasy, stepped for ward. "I suppose," he ventured, "I am not obliged to show these at present, but in asmuch as Miss Margaret has seen fit tc question their validity, and to discharge, or rather attempt to discharge, my brother aud myself for daring to an nounce our possession of them, I here with present them for your honor's in spection.

MEDFORD HI SERY ItalMlliM of Tlllle Smith's MnrHcrtr. All newsp;KT reatlers will remember the celebrated Tillie Smith innnler iu New Jersey. Tillie Smith, a your.g erv ant girl, was killed iu defending herself against some man whom the police gave np all hope of discovering. James Creel man, of The World, and C. W. Tyler, of The Sun. worked together as detectives on the case. They couvicted Titus, the janitor of the institution where Tiilie Smith lived. He was sentenced to le hanged, but the sentence was afterward commuted to imprisonment for life. In addition to the good detective work which these two brilliant reporters did they wrote such simple, touching, straightforward accounts of the girl's heroic defense and atrocious death that the tearful public subscribed plenty of money to erect a monument to Tillie Smith's memory. This was probably the first money ever put np in honor of a murdered servant girl. It was cer tainly a creditable monument to human sympathy. Xew York World. What Qnlckund la. The reason a person sinks in qnick- sand is because the latter is composed chiefly of small particles of mica mixed lareelv with water. The mica is so smooth that the fragments slip upon each other with the greatest facility, so that any heavy body which displaces them will sink and continue to sink until a solid bottom is reached. When particles of sand are ragged and angular auy weight pressing ou thorn will crowd them together until they are compacted Into a solid mass. A sand composed of mica or soaps tone when mixed with sufficient water seems incapable of such consolidation. Detroit Free Press. Ride and Seek. ijj "I just bet Jimmy Mnggin's looking all over r me. I Turning, he ordered his clerk to lead the way to the great vaults below. In j which were filed ail the county records j of the surrogate's office. Jack and Sim- J Eious brought np the procession. Ia j Simmons' arms were the cahbook and ! journal, which, as they turned about to survey the crowd, the brothers recog nized as tbe volumes they supposed they bad burned the Saturday evening pre vious. The gas had been lighted, and by the glare of it tho faces of the two guilty wretches looked ghastly indeed. Were ever two knaves ia closer quarters? The proof of one attempted crime before their eyes, and tbe proof of another. greater, and the primary crime of ths lot. promised, and they in the presence of their accusers in au iron vault and with a stalwart sheriff at the door! Your honor will please hold one of these notes r.p where the light will not fall directly on it so," said Jack. The judge did as requested, and an ex clamation cf wonder escaped every per son present except Jack and Simmons aad the brothers. The former wers smiling triumphantly. The latter, with looks of terror on their faces, were slinking toward the door, leaving their notes iu the hands of their accusers. "Sheriff, stop those two men." com manded Jack, and that official made a siguilicaut motion which brought the Blites to a staud. "You will notice," continued Jack, "that while the body and signatures of those notes are here green the sums or faces and the dates are a decided blue. Mr. Siinmons, please tell the court your story." Simmons did so, and the sheriff as he listened got out his bracelets. The surrogate listened attentivelv. and at the conclusion of Simmons' tale, which Jack had supplemented from time to time, said, "I must say that 1 have never known of a case similar to this, and my dnty is hardly clear to me at this moment. Yon will pardon the snggestion, your honor," interposed Jack, "but in behalf of my employer. Miss Medbnry, allow me to say she has no desire to punish these wretched servants further than by the discharge they received Saturday, If they will leave the city she will de cline to prosecute. "I do not know that I have a right to allow them to go. Technically they are not guilty of forgery, bnt they are of fraud, and of an attempt to utter fraud nlent paper. They have raised these otherwise harmless blanks, however, and the law can and will handle them severely for it if I do my duty." "I most earuestly request that they be allowed to go," said Margaret, here breaking in. "No one can lose by their freedom bnt myself, and I have not the least desire for vengeance." "Granted," exclaimed the judge, "and if all employers were as lenient as you rascality would be more plentiful aud lawyers would have less business." Ho nodded to tho sheriff, who stepped to one side and allowed the precious pair to hurry ont and down the street. They were not heard of for more than a year afterward, and then only by a brief news dispatch announcing the death of Charles and the serious wounding of Arthur by a western fanner whose naras they had secured to an innocent looking order for a patent right.
