SAVED BY A SONG.
Familiar Tune the Means of Rescuing
Youth from Slavery.
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,” a3 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 deslra 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
landing at Buenos Ayres is its docks,
which extend for five miles along the
river front, says St. Nicholas. They
were built by an English firm, and
were completed in 1897. They are
most solidly constructed, supplied
with numerous modern steam cranes
and are brilliantly lighted with elec
trdty at night. They cost the city
and nation seven million pounds
sterling, or $35,000,000. So great is
the amount of shipping, however, that
not the docks alone, but the small
river Riachuelo is crowded with ves
sels. Indeed, one wonders how a
ship, once entered, can ever manage
to get out.
High Prices for Antiques.
Old furniture collectors in this city
have lately been driving prices higher
and higher. The rage for Chippen
dale and Sheraton patterns of the
finer lines is greater than ever. Chairs
especially fetch astonishing prices.
Even dealers are paying in some
cases as much as $50 for a single
Chippendale chair of rare pattern,
though it be out of repair. A col
lector in this city paid the other day
$275 for a Chippendale armchair..
Chairs ot less unusual pattern are
sold every day tor $40, $50 and $100.

Lot* of Work for Idle Hand*.
Lioud and urgent are the calls from
Western farms and orchards for
scores of thousands of wage earners
for the harvesting of the crops and
the 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”
desire to get along without working,
Is too conspicuous everywhere.—New
York Tribune.

“I sometimes think that If I had

cashier. “Some of their mistakes

shame. Among the checks handed

Before Rome Was Founded.
In one of the tombs recently ex
cavated fca the Roman Forum a vase
was discovered, the Inscriptions on
whieh stew that It beleags to the
twelfth century before Christ, or 400
yean badore the reputed date of the
founding of Borne. Signor Beni, the
director of the evoevttteas, believes
the tomb to be a reHe of a city which
existed and had disappeared before
Rome was founded.
