There has been a rathor persistant , rumor atloat about town of late to t ho effect that the shops of tho Btirling'on J would bo moved to this placo l foro I long. Whilo it is Jim Hill's policy to mako long freight divisions on Ids sys tem, Rod Cloud is hardly tho logical point for such an extension. Oxford j would bo moro likoly to seouro the ' Bhops, cutting out McCook on tho west than Wymoro on tho east.

Thoro havo boon persistent rumors of Into of tho proposed establishment of an ieo plant here, to provide against such dangor of ico famine as Rod Cloud has been facing during the past few weeks. Tho idea is feasible and should bo pushed, it need not bo an oxponslvo undertaking, nnd a mar ket could bo found nil along the lino. Guide Rock has shipped ico from Chester by car loads this winter tiud other points have been obliged to go nway from homo for their summer supply. Why not push it along? That Settle's It.

TWO SCOTCH STORIES. Origin of the .Mncliitvi-cn nnd thm Uloody llnnd IifRcnd. My father, says u writer In Black wood's Magazine, had no end of anec dotes about our tncestors, pnrts of which I remember, though I was only a schoolroom child of under fourteen when 1 heard him relating them. I wus, however, old enough to feel keen ly Interested Iu them. One story that impressed me very much was related to account for the origin of tho Clan Maclntyre. A party of Macdonclls on one occasion were out In n boat when a knot of wood sprang out, causing a serious leak, whereupon one of the par ty stuck In his finger to fill tho hole and then cut It oft" with his dirk, thus saving tho life of tho wholo party. From this circumstance his descend ants were called tho Maelntyres, or eons of the carpenter. Another story which I heard my fa ther tell relates to the bloody hand which appears In our coat of arms. A doubt having arisen as to which of two brothers a certain estate belonged, It was agreed that he whose flesh and blood should first touch the property was to bo regarded as the rightful own er. Accordingly the two young men started In two boats for the lund in question. One of them, seeing that ho was losing the race, when near the shore pulled out his dirk, cut off his hand and throw it on land, thus estab lishing his right to the property, as his flesh and blood had touched It first. SLAVERY IN ENGLAND. In 1773 It IVnn Tlint the Court De clared It to lie IHckiiI. In 1772 slavery was declared by the Judges to bo contrary to the law of England. But during the years Im mediately preceding this date slaves were commonly sold in England. In the previous year a Birmingham paper advertised for sale "a negro boy, sound, healthy and of mild disposi tion," while lu the same year another paper records (and condemns) the sale n short time previously at Richmond of a negro boy for 32. This is be lieved to have been the last actual sale of u slave that took place In England. White slavery was very common In the English colonies In the seventeenth century. Cromwell seized Irlsn boys, girls and women "by the thousand" and "sold them In the slave markets of Barbados," as may bo seen In num berless places In the state papers of tho period. He treated some of his royalist opponents In England and Scotland In the same way. A similar fate befell many of the supporters of Monmouth's rebellion in the west of England. In the latter case, as Macaulay tells us, the ladles of tho court, including the queen, made lurge profits on tho sales. London Standard. Smith m, Greek God. In the grammar department of one of our public schools the teacher, after talking with her class on tho subject of mythology, read to them as follows: "Vulcan, smith, architect and chariot builder for tho gods of Mount Olym pus, built their houses, constructed their furulture," etc. The following day tho subject of tho preceding day was given as a languuge lesson, and as no mention was made of Vulcan the teacher asked tho class who built the houses for the gods of Mount Olym pus. For awhile" the children seemed to bo lost In deep thought, when sud denly a gleam of Intelligence Illumi nated the face of ono little girl, and she replied: "I can't think of his first name, but his last name la Smith." Magazine of Fun. Seven Dayi In n Year. At fho examination of pupils In a primary school the Inspector put ques tions at random to the scholars. Among the latter was a towheaded lad who on being asked how many days there are In a year answered, "Seven." When the Uttering of the rest of the class sub sided tho Inspector remarked: "I ijald a year, not a week. Now, try again. How many days are there in a year?" Tho lad appeared nonplused and vex ed for n moment, then ejaculated: "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs day, Friday, Saturday, Sunday; Just seven. If there's others I never heard of 'em.' London Mall. Mexican Conrtuhlp. A Mexican glrL is courted by a unique process. Her would be lover walks up and down tho street on tho opposite side and stares at her win dow by the hour.

Tho preliminary tramping and staring are called "doing tho bear." Indisputable. Mabel But, papa, I know that he must havo money. lie doesu't attempt to conceal It. Papa That settlos it.
