Roderick O'Connor was crowned with great pomp m Dublin in the year 111 C , when his stormy reijrn began. All his life he \v;is engaged in h ostili- ties wjth piratical Danes and even more troublesome subjects. To insure peace he entered into a compac t wifh the Danish hordes who settled on the coast , never penetrating into the in- terior. The tribute was a sti pend in cattle of 4 , 000 cows, levied on his do- minion. But it was onl y the beg in- ning of Roderick' s troubles. Soon an event followed , insi gnificant in itself , but pregnant with impending conse- quences. He deposed one of the petty princes of Leinster , whose cruelty and mismanagement had . caused much complaint. The folly of this subject culminated in the offense of running off with his nei g hbors wife. History g ives undue prominence to this criino , which was onl y the li g htest charge laid at the door of Dermot MaMernag li. Exasperated at his deposition , Der- mot appealed to Henry II. , who sent over the Ang lo-Normans to assist in recovering his possessions. In return for the services rendered , the Earl of Pembroke , by a marriage with the daug hter of Dermot , obtained posses- sion of the Leinster princi pality, and thus laid the foundation of the Ang lo- Norman rule in Ireland. The dis- tracted condition of O'Connor ' s king- dom prevented him raising s utHcient, troops to expel the Norman invaders . Submitting to the inevitul .de. he came to terms with hisenemies. He did not even insist on the submission of Der- mot , lint appealed to his honor not to invite further auxiliaries in to the coun- try. Dermot promised fidelity, but broke his word uithu iivM opportunity. Roderick , in despair , appealed to his old enemies , the Danes , to assi s t him. In vain did Ko:le~i: - k strive •r_ ' H'r . - -i the inevitable. The fii - st united effort of the allied armies proved a disastrous failure , but the proud spirit of the king was not broken. Listening to the wily plans of Henry, the Irish king con- cluded a treaty with the Engl i sh monarch. So far from fulfilling the provisions of this contract , solemnl y agreed upon in Dublin , Henry, soon after , actually made a present of the whole of Connaug ht to William Fitzadlem de Burgo and his heirs. — Iri sh Times. A Famous Hymn. When Bishop Heber ' s famous mis- sionary hymn , \From G reenland' s ley .Mountains , '' which he wrote in 1 M 4 , when in Cey lon , first reached this country, a lad y in Charl eston was much impressed with the beauty of it , and was particularl y anxious to find a tune suited to it. She ransacked her music in vain , and then chancing to remember that in a bank down the street was a young clerk who had con- siderable reputation as a musical genius , she sent her son with the h ymn to the clerk with the re q uest that he write a tune to fit it. In just half an hour the boy came back with the h ymn , and the melod y thus dashed off in hot haste is today sung all over the worl d and is insepa rabl y connected with the h ymn. The young bank clerk was Lowell Mason. — ' Brooklyn Eagle. A Curious Incident.

A .subscri ption was taken up among the gunners pres- ent to buy Mr. Gushing a new gun. — Boston Journal. A Domesticated Ouall. Herbert Smith , of Brid geport , Conn., has a quail that flew in through his window about a year ago , and which he has tamed so successfull y that it eats from his hand and seems entirely domesticated. It is left at liberty in the bouse , where it is very apt to sit in the lap of some one of the famil y, and , when ' taken out of doors, never tries to escape. Cases of such com- plete domestication of a full grown nuail are believed to be .very rare. — Boston -Herald.

This remed y is safe to take , certain' in its action , and adapt- ed to all constitutions. A good story comes to tho front on Sol Smith Russell. Some time ago he was p laying - in the towns along the Ohio river. There was one place tho advance agent was about to ski p; they had no theatre , but the people knew of Russell' s fun making propensities and were very anxious to have him there , and they told tho agent they would fix up the court house with s tage , cur tain and all the necessary ac- cessories if ho would come , and so it was finally arranged. The ni g ht came and tho court house was packed. Peop le crowded in until it became necessary to bar the doors. One individual came round rather late and , being somewhat intoxicated , became wrathy when ho was refused A dmission. HoV.tv ed Unci Sw O ro and th reatened , and finally in a mad frenzy went to the rear of the house and. fired -a bullet from a revolver throug h one of the windows. The shot passed through an improvised dressing room , just missing Mrs. , Russell, passea through a door and dropped , flattened and out of shape , on the center of the stage [floor. Of course ' some excite- ment was created , but , Mr. Russell came forward , p icked up ' ' the bullet , assured tho audience there was no dan- ger , and the play went on. The curtain fell on the l ast act ,and the comedian came out again and made a little speech. Ho said ho regretted tho little incident that had happened dur- ing tho evening and was sorry the people had been disturbed . Ho spoke of the ' tri ps he had made up and down the Ohio valley and an occurrence like it. He thoug ht it strange that such a thing should hav e taken p lace in a quiet little Ohio town. Had it been on tho other side of tho river , where recentl y that sort of filing had been common , it would not have been so surprising. This was a reference to the l;itc« war , and Mr. Russell said many tilings about it that he felt would be exceedin g l y p leasant and complimentary to the citizens of so loyal a state as Ohio . Mr. Russell was naturally somewhat surprised that when he concluded no one app lauded. Not a sound was heard but the rustle and bustle of peo- p le leaving, and when he got back of the curtain one of the citizens ' com- mittee met him with a look of intense amusement on his face and stud : \Mr. Russell , have you got a small map of the United States about you?\ \Wh y. no , \ , replied the actor ; \ what for?\ \Well , I thought if you had , it would be a good thing for you to study it. You made a nieo little speech out there for Ohio , but this tow n happens to be in Kentuck y. \ Telling the story himself , Mr. Russel l w iys that colli chills ran over him , and visions of bowi e knive. - . and p istols haunted him until he and the company had reall y crossed to the other shore. —Chicago Herald. • ' • The T - oeu s t s In LRerature.

Whether a ph ysician becomes illustri- ous through a patient ' s death , ora com- ic singer has p leased a London or Paris audience , whether an artist has painted a g inshop, or a scul ptor has carved a clown , whether a general has won a battle , a clergyman has been impris- oned by bis bishop, or a lad y been dis- tinguis h ed in a divorce suit , one and all of these will forthwith publish something, article , monograph , nov- elette , essay, reminiscence , or the let- ters of somebody else , without the sli ghtest regard to whether they pos- sess any literary capabilities for the work or not. If the public has ever heard of them in any capacity, whether marching through a savage country or sing ing a music hall ditty, whether speaking at a public meeting or rebutting a criminal charge in the dock , they will all write , and they will all find editors , publishers , and pub- lics read y to receive them. A war may become impossible throug h all nations being armed to the teeth ; it may also prove in the future that writing and publishing what is written will become so general that it will cease altogether. Other methods than (hose now used may most likelv supersede printing; but , whatever the practical means pursued in tho future to perpetuate and gener- alize human thought , it is certain that if tho \ making of books \ (or their equivalents) continues to increase at the rate at which it has increased in last twenty years it will become so fri g htful a burden , so sickl y a p lague , that it will ceaso to have any life or meaning in it , as a locust swarm per- ishes of famine from its multitude. — Ouida. M en ami l l t o e o v T li» Pass for Men. Often we find not more than five whole men in a town of 5 , 000 inhab- itants. Those who pass for men and who reall y do get married and have families , aro a hundred to ono frac- tional men or exclusivel y machines. Elihu Burritt cultivated the man that was in him until his trade and his bla c k sm ith s h o p c ould n ot stay with him. They ceased to be useful to him. He could get his living in a way that was better for him. Benjamin Frank- lin was an excellent printer , but he used his trade only ns a means. The development of his mind and his man- hood went on above it. Printing with him was not an end of life. If it had been we should have missed his words of wisdom ; some one else would hav e built tho kite that exchanged tho first kiss with electricity, and less able men would have been set to do the work which ho did so creditabl y in the management of the country ' s affairs. It is not necessary that you bo learned blacksmiths or philosop hical and di p- lomatic printers , but it is necessary that you oe a man before your call- in g , ' behind your calling, after your \ calling, outside of your calling, and inside of it; and that that calling mod- if y your character no more than it would were it your nei g hbor ' s. —J.

Electricity is the good genius of this century. Those who know most about it say that what we have done with it in the past is but a trifle compared with what wo may hope to do with it in the future. There aro people who expect some day to bo able to call a distant friend by wire , seo his image in a mirror , hear his voice , and , if de- sired , get his exact si gnature to a sub- scri ption paper or a check. These things may all come. At present we get along with an inter- mittent and exasperating repetition of the voice over tho wire, having ii\ means of determining tho identity of our interlocutor , no certainty of get- ting his words accuratel y \ and n n record of what ho says. Cases arc re- ported where ingenious rascals have secured considerable sums by cleverly imitating over the telep hone the voice of wealth y business men ; in other eases orders to buy or soil goods or securities have been repudiated by those who gave them b y telep hone , while the simple blunders caused b y faulty telep honic transmission would fill volumes. EhshaGray, the well known Illinois inventor , recentl y patented a device to insure accuracy and accountabilit y over the electric wire. The. sender of a message can write it out at his desk , and an exac t reproduction of the writ- ing will be made at the other end of the circuit , - T ^ ieie have been previous attempts OT l ransmit ting fae-smiiles of writing, but inventions which de- pended upon a variation in the in- tensity of the current or upon revolv- ing cy linders proved unsatisfactory. Mr . G ray ' s device consists of two current interrupters at the sending end and a pair of electro motors at the re- ceiving end. The sender uses either pen or pencil , near the point of which are attached two threads running at ri ght ang l es to each other. These threads are kept at an even tension automaticall y, and each one passes tn a current interrupter set into the tele- graphic circuit. When the pen moves to the ri g ht the current is broken a grea t number of times tor a small mo vement. When it moves to the left the current is reversed and issimilarl y interrupted. The same arrangement prevails on the movement of the pen up and down. The writer can write or sketch as rap idly and as freely as if he had no telegraphic attachment. At the receiving end there are two electro magnets fitted with rods set at ri g ht ang les to each other , so p ivoted as to give any motion desired to the pen which they carry at their inter- section. When a series of breaks in tin\ current is caused by a umiiou of tin! sending pen to the ri ght , t he mag- net draws the latera l rod also to the right. Similarl y upward motion is g iven by the vertical rod. Lett hand- ed or downward strokes of the sending pen are reproduced by the receiving pen in the same manner. Conse- quentl y every motion made on the paper at one end of the wire is cop ied with faultless exactness at the other end. When the pen is taken oil' or a new line is begun an automatic device operates with the same result on the receiving pen. The telautogra p h , as Mr. Gray calls his invention , therefore not onl y in- sures accuracy, but it so exactl y cop ies the sender ' s handwriting as to hold him accountable for what ho has writ- ten , while he retains for his own guidance the ori g inal of the message transmitted. The experiments made show that there is no diffe rence in the handwriting at the two ends of the wire , except that which is incident to the use of tho stylog ra phic pen at the receiving end. —New York Herald. The Pino Tree State. The assertion has frequentl y been made that the title \Pine Tree State \' has become a misnomer for Maine, and , althoug h there are lots of p ine trees still standing in the northern part of the state , there is some ground for objection to the old time sobri quet. Tho statistics of tho amount of p ine lumber surveyed ttt the port of Bangor yearl y show that the cut of that kind of timber on the Penobscot has fallen off from 123 , 000, 000 feet in 1853 to 20, 000 , 000 in 1SS7. In the four years from 1853 to 1857 th e re was a falling off in the pine survey of 47 , 000 , 000 feet , and in 1877 , twenty years later , pine had got down to 15 , 000, 000 feet. Tho total survey of p ine at this port from 1855 to 1887 , inclusive , was 1 , 510 , 000 , 000 feet , or considerabl y less than ouo-half of the spruce survey , and about three times the cut of hem- lock , juniper , etc. Pine used to lead all other kinds of lumber , but now spruce heads tho list. In 1855 tho pino survey was 123 , 000 , 000 feet , the spruce 78 , 000 , 000 feet , but during tho war spruce took tho lead , and these two kinds of lumber graduall y changed p laces , until now the cut of spruce averages 120 , 000 , 000 feet , or four times the output of pine. Nearl y till of our large near by pino has been cut , and most of the logs now driven down the Penobscot aro second growth. There is plenty of bi g p ino away to the north , but in the face of western and Cana- di an competition in tho leading mar- kets it would hardl y pay to cut it and drive it long distances. Spruce is king on the Penobscot , and all other Maine rivers now , and this is really more of a spruce tree state than anything else. —Bangor (Me.) Cor. New York Sun. A Border Drama In Earnest.
