A remarkable Incident is that of a Scottish youth who had learned at home to sing the old psalms that were then as household words to them in the kirk and by the fireside. When he grew up he wandered away from his native country, was taken captive by the Turks, and made a slave in one of the Barbary states. But he never forgot the songs of Zion, although he sung them in a strange land and to heathen ears. One night he was solacing himself in this manner, when the attention of some sailors on board of an English man-of-war was direct ed to the familiar tune, “Old Hun dred,” as it came floating over the moonlit waves. At once they surmis ed the truth that one of their country men was languishing away his life as a captive. Quickly arming them selves, they manned a boat, and lost no time in effecting his release. What a joy to him, after eighteen long years passed in slavery. NO MONEY IN TRANSLATION. Little Demand for the Best Works of Foreign Authors. ‘Translating Is an art,” said an Instructor at the university. "Car lyle translated some fairy tales from the German, and these tales from Tleck and Musaeus are examples of English prose as beautiful as the heart could desire. Swinburne trans lated Villon, and so did Rossetti, who gave us, furthermore, paraphrases of the Italian poets that equal the origi nals in charm. That is the test of translation—that it shall equal in beauty the original—and I think there should be a law requiring every great writer to translate at least one great book. But our good men can’t afford to make translations; the pay is too miserable. It is impossible to get for translating a novel of 125,000 words more than about $250. There is only $2 per 1,000 words, and there Is no living in it at such figures.”— Philadelphia Record. “Old Wine” Theory Exploded. There is hardly a man who does not believe that the old wine is the best wine, yet a short time ago some cases of claret were sold in London at $25 a bottle, of the famous “Comet” vintage of 1811, and the wine was found to be utterly worth less. It was simply worn out with age. Wine experts and wealthy con noisseurs had come from great dis tances to buy the wine at any price, and were edified upon opening it to find it was as flat as soda water. In the same way, not long since, a quan tity of hock from the cellars of a country house, of the year preceding Napoleon's retreat from Moscow, fetched $20 per bottle, and was found to have lost everything except color. Buenos Ayres’ Great Docks. The first thing that strikes you on S landing at Buenos Ayres is its docks, 3 which extend for five miles along the ^ river front, says St. Nicholas. They 3 were built by an English firm, and 3 were completed in 1897. They are 3 most solidly constructed, supplied J with numerous modern steam cranes 3 and are brilliantly lighted with elec- 3 trclty at night. They cost the city 3 and nation seven million pounds 3 sterling, or $35,000,000. So great is 3 the amount of shipping, however, that 3 not the docks alone, but the small 3 river Rlachuelo is crowded with ves- 2 sels. Indeed, one wonders how a 3 ship, once entered, can ever manage 3 to get out. 3 High Prices for Antique*. £ Old furniture collectors In this city C have lately been driving prices higher £ and higher. The rage for Chlppen- ; dale and Sheraton patterns of the < finer lines is greater than ever. Chairs |J especially fetch astonishing prices. £ Even dealers are paying in some 2 cases as much as $50 for a single < Chippendale chair of rare pattern, 2 though It be out of repair. A col- f lector in this city paid the other day ^ $275 for a Chippendale armchair. Chairs of loss unusual pattern are sold every day for $40, $50 and $100. —New York letter. Lota of Work for Idle Hands. Ix>ud and urgent are the calls from Western farms and orchards for scores of thousands of wage earners for the harvesting of the crops and tho garnering of the fruits. But too many Idlers, tramps and beggars In our cities, and in the country regions also, turn deaf ears to such appeals and refuse tempting opportunities to earn honest and comfortable livings. * The vagrant spirit, the "dead-beat” 2 desire to get along without working, 2 Is too conspicuous everywhere.—New 2 York Tribune. 2 -!< How She Signed the Check. 2 “I sometimes think that if I had 2 my way in the matter I would make 2 It a law that women should not have * bank books,” said the tired-looking £ cashier. “Some of their mistakes jj would put a sensible schoolboy to * shame. Among the checks handed * In to me to-day was one for quite a < large amount which the woman who 2 drew it out had signed ‘Your loving 2 Carrie.’ ” '* -2 Before Rome Was Founded. * In one of the tombs recently ex- m cavated in the Roman Forum a vase 2 was discovered, the inscriptions on 2 which show that It belongs to the j twelfth century before Christ, or 400 < years before the reputed date of the ij founding of Rome. Signor Boni, the 2 director of the excavations, believes J the tomb to be a relic of a city which 2 existed and had disappeared before J Rome was founded.
