Charles James Fox, the English
statesman, was even more notorious in
the gumlug world than be was famflu«
In the world of politics. He bad
squandered »200.000 before coming of
age. He became one of the most profli­
gate gamesters of the vicious days in
which lie lived. Some of bls finest dis­
plays In debate were sandwiched be-
tweeu excitement such as would un­
nerve most men who had no serious
business on hand. Walpole has given
a glimpse of a typical passage In this
extraordinary man’s life. He had to
take part in the discussion on the
thirty-nine articles in parliament on a
certain Thursday. He bad sat up play­
ing hazard from Tuesday evening until
r> o'clock on Wednesday afternoon. Au
hour before be had recovered »(>(1,000
that he bad lost and by dinner time,
which was 5 o’clock, ended losing »55,-

debate, went to dinner at past 11 at
night; thence to a club, where be
drauk till 7 the next morning; thence
to a gambling house, where he wou

afternoon lie set out on a Journey to
Newmarket.
A Buttsrsd Book.
How the Rev. Mr. Johnston, a Scot­
tish minister aud the author of nu­
merous books, succeeded iu getting
one of bis works reviewed by Alex­
ander Russel, the distinguished editor
of the Bcotsmau. Is told by the writer
of "Famous Editors."
A member of Mr. Johnston's congre­
gation was an old and valued servant
in Mr. Russel's family. When the
preacher published bls new be k he
asked this member to bring it under
the notice of her master, with the re­
quest to ret lew It in the columns of
the Scotsman. Glad to lie of service
to her master, the good woman lost
no time in making her wish known to
the celebrated editor and next morn­
ing placed “The Gospel Roll" beside
his breakfast cup.
When at breakfast Mr. Russel took
up the book and remarked, with a
merry twinkle hi his eye, "Helen, this
Is an awful dry roll which you have
given me this morning.”
"Perhaps ft Is, sir," the servant
quickly replied, “but you can butter
It weel on both sides."
Next morning an excellent review
appeared.
Pirates and Strategy.
The virtuous Island of Sark was not
always so. When Edward III. was
king, Bark was a haunt of pirates nnd
wreckers. Sir A. Conan Doyle In “Sir
Nigel” tells how they lived not upon
the island, "but from what they can
guther upon the sea around it. They
are broken folk from all countries
justice fliers, prison breakers, reavers,
escaped bondsmen, murderers and
staff breakers who have made I licit-
way to this outland place and hold It
against all comers." The merchants
of Rye and Wluchelsea fitted out an
el|>edltloD against those scourges of
the narrow seas. A landing was ob­
tained by strategy
Leave was ob­
tained to bury a supposititious dead
sailor on the Island, the burying party
to come unarmed. Hut that apparent
coffin wus Hlletl with weapons, and so
was Bark cleansed of Its evil Inhabit­
ants.—London Standard.
Conkling and Thurman.
Senator Iloscoe Conkling was once
addressing the senate in an impassion­
ed manner and seemed to direct his
remurks to Senator Thurman, At
length the latter got irritated.
"Does the senator from New York,”
he roared, "expect me to answer him
every time he turns to me?"
For n moment Mr. Conkling hesitat­
ed, and everybody expected a terrific
explosion. Then, with an air of ex­
quisite courtesy, he replied:
"When I speak of the law I turn to
the senator from Ohio ns the .Mussul­
man turns toward Mecca. I turn to
him as I do to the English common
law as tlie world's most copious foun­
tain of human Jurisprudence."
The usually decorous senate broke
Into n storm of applause, and the
Thurman eye moistened a little. The
two statesmen were the best of
friends and greatly enjoyed each oth­
er's society when "off duty."
A Story of Mathews.
Charles Mathews one day previous
to the |>erlod of tils publicly proclaimed
dire bankruptcy luvlted a friend to
dine with him. The walnuts were
washed down by some rare sherry.
"That's a delicious wine," bls friend
exclaimed. "It must have cost you a
lot of money."
“It «Udu't coat me anything that I
know of,” the flighty comedian un-
■wered, with a shrug
"You had It given to you, then?” the

friend suggested.
"Oh, no,” answered Mathews;
bought It from Ellis, in Bond street.
“But he will charge you something
for It?" the friend exclaimed in aston­
ish meat.
"I believe he does write something
down In a book," Charles retorted
gravely. "left’s have another glass,
my boy.”

Fearful Fate of Ravaillac,
In these days when executions,
held at all. are mostly carried out
private, It Is difficult for us to under­
stand the feelings of savagery with
which an old time mob witnessed a
popular execution. Here is Bloundelle
Burton's account—from “The Fate of
Ilenr.v of Navarre”—of the scene when
Itiivalllnc. the assassin of the. king,
had. after shocking tortures, been torn
asunder by wild horses: "The execu-
tloner had begun to dismember him
and was about to cast bis remains into
the* second caldron when the vast
crowd prevented him from doing so.
They each required a portion of the
body of the king's assassin, nnd most
of them obtained one. That night
many bonfires blazed in and around
I’uris, and In their midst were con­
sumed pieces of Ilavalllac's frame; ou
barn doors in other places were nailed
