AN ODD DANQUET.
At Which a Fahiooui:e Londoner Borlad
III 1'achclorhooiL
Most men experienced in dining out
have attended what might be aptly
called "crank dinners" where some
hobby came into play or an odd eccen
tricity was grotesquely indicated. One
of the queerest banquets of this char
acter took place a few years ago at a
fashionable restaurant in London,
where an acquaintance engaged a cab
inet particulier to celebrate what he
called the "burial of his bachelor
hood." The table was laid with a black satin
cloth, the flowers in the epergnes were
immortelles, the menu was written in a
dead language on mimic tombstones,
the name of each guest was inscribed
on a cardboard coffin which opened and
contained a dark cigar to represent a
corpse and the wine appeared draped in
crape and was served by mutes.
When the guests arrived they came
in two mourning coaches drawn by huge
black horses with long tails, such as
one sees wending their way to the
cemeteries. The host was dressed in
deep mourning, with sables around
each arm. He was evidently in some
respects a morbid man who reveled in
his mortuary wit, for when the mana
ger of the restaurant knocked at the
door (it was getting late) and desired
to know if the obsequies were quite
over the giver of the feast was reading
the burial service with mock solemnity
over an empty claret bottle.
ne auuressea me manager as a
"potent, grave and reverend seignior,"
requested one of his guests to play him
out to the strains of the "Dead March
in Saul" and protested that the dinner
could not be completed "until it was
half mourning." This comedy or farce,
interlude or whatever one may call it,
was kept up to tho very end by the
convives departing as lugubriously and
solemnly as thev had entered.

Pilot Charles II. Lawson keeps a
valuable scrap-book, wlch, among
other records, contains the following
on cold winters in this country and in
Europe. The information, says tho St.
Louis Republic, was obtained from
records of the St. Louis Cathedral over
forty years ago. In the year 403 the
Mack sea was frozen over. In 781 the
Black sea and straits of Dardanelles
were frozen. In 803 the Danube and
Elbe froze over and boro heavy teams
for a month. In 800 tho Adriatic sea
was frozen. In 901 general freezes oc
curred all over Europe. Crops failed
tho following season, and famine and
pestilence closed the year. In 10GT
travelers were frozen on tho roads in
nearly all sections of Europe. In 1133
the Itiver Po was frozen from Cremona
to the sea, wine casks burnt and trees
wero split by the frost. In 1230 the
Dunube was frozen to tho bottom. In
1403 the wines furni.ihed to the ooldiers
in tho army of Flanders were frozen

1084 the ice was 11 inchea thick on
the Thames river, and coaches drove
ncross on the ice. In 171C booths were
erected on the ice of tho Thames river,
in which fairs wero held. In 1744 and
1745 the strongest ah, when exposed

The Churchman has given us Illlty's
Idea, which Is anrety valuable enough
to be spread abroad. Ills mother was
going ti the seashore, and while she
wsa pat-king her trunks he was pop
ping In about every five mirutrs with
something of his that must be parked
al.
"I'll like Ui help y, mother," he
said oner, preparing to pilch his Ashing
tai-kle in on hie mother's lac gown,
" Vauee you liU a., llr-ll.
Never mind. Hilly." said his mother,
raU hliig the la kia. - shall rest after
awhile. Talking Is hard work f.ar a

Whr.- said Hilly, with hi hands In
hi ia keta and his head m ona side,
'why don I y.m put tn tmna upon
something? Hullo, I know; htsraea.
