Lord Strathcona, tho Cunadlan high commissioner In London, has hu mor of what Scotchmen call tho pawky variety, Four or flvo months ago an old man called at tho offices of the Do minion of Canada and asked to see Lord Strathcona, saying that ho was tho cabman who drovo young Donald Smith down to tho docks and his ship when years ago ho loft Caledonia to make his fortune in Canada. Lord Strathcona gavo orders that he should be shown In at once, and right pleasantly the two old men gossiped of "Auld Lang Syne" and "Bonnie Scotland." Suddenly the cabman heaved a portentous sigh. Lord Strath cona asked Its meaning. The cabman explained. He had not been prosperous, but had fallen on evil dayn. He had to sup port two grandsons, and one of them, to his grief, had Just died. He had little enough to bury him with and next to nothing with wh.lch to main tain himself and tho other. Lord Strathcona passed a five-pound note quickly Into tho waiting hand of the tearful grandfather. Now the cabman had Just made his second call and tho high commission er, not forgetful of his first visit, had the veteran driver brought Into his prlvato room. Onco more tho ntmos- phero of the office became thick with Highland reminiscences. Once more, too, tho cabman sighed, and then with breaking voice he related how in his old ngo he had to support his two grandsons, and now both of them were down with typhoid fever. Once more Lord Strathcona's purse strings were loosened and ho passed coins Into the old cabman's hands, who tottered out stammering his thanks. Now, Lord Strathcona's secretary had been an auditor of tho scene. When tho cabman had gone he came forward. "I hope, my lord," said he, "you did not give him anything. When he saw you some months ago he told you that of his two grandsons one was dead. Now he says both are down with ty phoid fever. It looks, my lord, as If he might be an impostor." Lord Strathcona eyed his well meaning secretary from underneath Ms bushy brows. "Thank you, thank you, very much, Mr. Jones," he purred, "but do you know that when I went out to Canada first I was not driven down to the docks In a cab nt all, but Just wheeled my own things to the ship In a wheel barrow?" . A Ilornl Bodjrgrnard. An ancient bodyguard Is that of tho honorable corps of gentlemen-at-arms, In England, which has celebrat ed Its 400th anniversary. The origin al duty of the bodyguard was to stand in a ring around the King of Eng land, should he go out on the battle field, and protect him with formidable battleaxes. It still has duties when the King Is in London. At levees In Bt. James' palace the men are required to be In attendance, standing solemn ly In quaint scarlet coats, and with white plumed helmets, officially keep ing clear a passage to the royal pres ence. It Is their duty also to be pres ent when there Is a court at Bucking ham palaco and when the King opens Parliament. Their battleaxes date far back to the days of the Spanish Armada. They were actually brought over on the ill-fated Spanish galleons, and tailing Into the hands of the English were given to tho King's bodyguard. It Depend. "How do you pronounce s-t-l-n-g-y??" the teacher asked the young gentle man nearest the foot of the class.

Most of those who say they do the best the? know how. dont The Increased cost of living In In dla generally and In Calcutta particu larly Is severely felt not onlyvby Euro peans, but also by Indians, according to a correspondent of the London Dally Mall. House rent In recent years has trebled, and even quadrupled. Ten years ago a family of half a dozen persons could live in fair comfort for 11,000 a year, excluding extras. With nothing less than $2,B00 can they live In tho same way now, Tnia is recog nizee by tho government, and the sal aries of subordinate officials have been revised'. Domestic servants' wages have Increased enormously. A good cook can not be had for less than (200 a year, whereas halt that sum was sufflr clent a decade ago, Bom of his.

Tho first services are to be held In the magnificent Cathedral of St. John tho Divine, crowning Mornlngstar Heights, New York, on St John's day, Dec. 27, as tho choir and crossing will be completed by that time, and Bishop Oreer will bo in charge. The magnificent memorial church being erected In Birmingham, England through the generous contributions of world-wide admirers of the late John Henry Newman, Is nearing comple tion. It has beon built outside the old Oratory, so dear to the heart of the late cardinal. The first chapter in a novel recently published contained the following "And so the fair girl continued to sit on the sands, gazing upon the briny deep, on Whose heaving bosom the tall ships went merrily by, freighted ah who can tell with how much Joy and sorrow, and coal, emigrants and hopes, nnd salt fish?" Tho "singing arc" has been so far perfected that It is made use of as an advertisement feature of a Paris shop, The lamp hangs in front of the store and at all times during the day and night there Is a continual concert of musical features interspersed with vo cal references to the virtues of the articles to be found on sale within the store. An ablo writer on missionary sub jects who is himself an African travel er of some distinction, ventured thus to prophesy in the year 1900, "There can be little doubt that before the close of the coming century heathen Ism will be practically extinct In the continent of Africa. The whole popu latlon will be either nominally Chris tian or nominally Mohammedan." Baron Wiyoshl, who died in Toklo, Japan, a few weeks ago, left $5,000 to three little German girls on condition of their wearing Japanese costumes until each ono reaches the age of 14 years. The baron formerly was at tached to the Japanese embassy In Berlin. He went bathing at a German summer resort, and Hans Kvessler, a mercantile clerk, the father of the girls, saved him from drowning. Kress- ler refused to accept any gift, but lightly remarked that the baron might remember the girls in his will. The automaticon is a new advertis ing device which Is designed for win dow display.

With the extension and development of the railroads of the eastern nart of Canada, the prospects grow brighter for the establishment of a new ocean route between tho Eastern and West ern continents. The terminus on this side will . be Green bay, Newfound land, and the other will be some con venient port of Groat Britain, and the projectors claim that this will nos- slbly Bhorten the transatlantic trip by thlrty-Bix hours between the United States and England. But little rail- road construction Is required to make the Green bay readily accessible from any point A great point In favor of this route Is that it is claimed to be practically free of fog, and at all sea sons of tho year vessels may ply this water with Bpeed and safety, Alma Holltngsworth of Portland.
