lifelike and quite artistic. There was
no little discussion of how the sketch

her two brothers and a youn. r sister,
was left in churge of the house while
their parents uttendeda funeral in the
country. In tho evening the girl's
sweetheart cal led. As she was alarmed
at noises which slio fancied she heard,
ho stayed at the house all uight to re
assure her. During the uight he
dreumed he saw the girl wulk past
him, beckoning him to follow. He
awoke, and becoming alarmed went
iuto tho passage. Having dressed ho
went to tho door of the girl's room
and knocked. Recfiving no answer
ho then awoke the others. On tho bed
room door being opened the girl was
found lying on the lloor with blood
issuing from her mouth. From a doc

tho girl died at about the time tliut
her sweetheart dreamed she beckoned

Ehif Geonte and Shakespeare,
A fashionable authoress of the hut
century was Miss Fanny Bui-iim
whose "Evelina" delighted Dr. Jolui'
son and Sir Joshua Reynolds. VV10n
she had become famous she was t,t
guest of Mrs. Deluney, a venerable
cultured ludy. who lived al Windsor
not far from the castle where Georee
111 and Queen Charlotte resided. The
king ami queen frequently called on
their neighbor, and shy Miss Fanny tl
such times sought her own room.
But one aflernoon she and Mrs. De
luney were in thedrawing room, when
suddenly the door opened. A lurge
man entered, who shut the door will,
out flpeuking. .The star on his breast
revealed to Miss Iiurney that she stood
in the presence of the king. She re
treated lo the wall. The king ad
vanced to his hostess and in a loud
whisjierasked if that was Miss Burner,
tfpoh being assured that H was ne
drew near and entered into con vers
tion with her.
"Dut what what how was it-how
came you how happened it-what-what
what?" he asked, in his usual
odd manner. Believing he referred
to "Evelina." she replied thai il had
been written at odd hours for amuse
ment. "But your publishing your prim
ing how was that what whatf he
asked: to which she answered: "I
thought, sir, il would look well in
print," at which he was vastly amused.
Soon sho became familiar with the
presence of royalty, and on one occa
sion had the advantage of hearing his
majesty's criticisms on some famous
men. Voltaire he pronounced a mon
stcr, and Shakespeare he considered
little better than a fool.
"Wus there ever," cried out this
royal Solomon, "such stuff as great
part of Shakespeare? only one must
not say so.. But what think you-wliat
whut is there not sad stuff what
what-what?"
Fanny Burney ventured to assert
that the sad stu tl' was mixed with many
excellencies; but he interrupted her to
ejaculate:
"Oh, I know it is not to be said -but
it's true only it's Shakespeare, and
nobody dares abuse him; one should
be stoned for savin? so"
Sung; at the Holy Sepulcher.
Recently the Duke of Norfolk wrote
from the holy- lund to inform her
majesty of an Interesting and unique
incident hi connection with the visit
of the English pilgrims to Pales
tine. On St. George's day, for the
first time since the age of the Cru
sades, Pontifical high mass 'was sung
at the silver altar in front of the
Holy Sepulcher by an English prelate,
tho Hon. and Right Rev. William Clif
ford, bishop of Clifton, and his lord
ship also preached, after which the
anthem, "Doinine Salvain fae Regi
nam Nostram" in other words, "God
Save the Queen" was sung by the
pilgrims. This was the first instance
that the queen or other British sover
eign had been publicly prayed for in
that place probably since the thue of
Richard Coeur-de-Llon, and certainly
the first since the Reformation. Hx
