Charles 1 11 fow Hhllllng "on principle."
Ho fought for his convictions In tho courts,
and later on appealed from law to arms,

Prince Rupert's cavaliers ran his sword

patriot commoner died of the wound a
week afterward, hut the cause, ho advo
cated lived and triumphed under tho direc
tion of his cousin, Oliver Cromwell.
Tho English people recognized Hump
ilen'H services to tho extent of praising his
deeds and respecting his tomb for the
iipacoof aOO j earn. Thon they had onu of
those anniversary spasms so common to
civilization. They erected a ineinorlrl at
Chalgrove, which was a proper thing to do,
nud qulto creditable In Its way. Hut they
didn't stop there. They dug open a grave
which was wild to bo Hampden'H, took out
the skeleton there reposing and relntorred
It elsuwhere. Tho highly respectable par
ties in charge of the nlTnlr compensated
themselves for their trouble by pulling a
few teeth out of the skeleton's Jaws.
These thoy took homo as genuine relies of
tho stainless citizen and knightly hero
who could defy kingly aggression, but who
couldn't ave his own bones from tho de

who, having nothing else to do, wrote a
pamphlet about it. Naturally Home other
equally unoccupied inumlier of tho "upper

tion it is said that the poor skeleton was
again unearthed ami subjected to tho

controversies equally important to thofrco

whether King Charles I knelt at tho exe

It must Is! admitted In this eonnrctlon

In America as well as elsewhere. One pe
culiarly shocking example has to do with
the death and Initial of George Frederick
Cooke, a famous English actor, whoso ca
reer was cut short at Boston by dissipation
He died tu September, 181'J, and the doc
tors made an autopsy, as they said, to dis
cover tho nature or hlsdlseaso. One of the
surgeons, named Frauds, cut olT the poor
fellow's head and kept It. Some years
later, when "Hamlet" was on the hoard
at tho Park theatre, tho ptoperty man
found himself without 11 skull for use in
tho grave) mil scene lie applied to Fran
cis, who loaned htm tho skull of Cookol
Tho mutilated remains were, given sepul
ture In St Paul's churchyard, New Yorlc
city. There they lay until IS'.'I, when Ed
mund Kean, also a celebrated English no
tor, caused them to lie dug up and rein
terred under a monument which lie erect
ed at his own expense.
While the headless corpse was Mug
transferred from lt old to Its new resting
place Mr. ICean abstracted a toe bone,
which ho reverenced as a priceless souve
nir. He took It to London and ma lo it tin
objtct of worship in the hoursof lil maud
lin frenzy. He declared that It would
prove a fortunu to his sou Charles, but It
didn't, for Mrs. ICean, tired of her hus
band's ridiculous rautlugs, one day picked
up tho rocrod rulls ntnl pitched It out of
tho window. Kenn went frantic over tho
loss ami said to his wife, "Mary, your son
Charles wits worth 10,000; now ho is a
Is-ggar." Tho sum mentioned was the
actor's estimate of the value of tie too
bone.
What there is left of Cooke's skeleton,
bo far as known, hits not been dlsturbid.
The monument erected by Edmund Keau
In 1KJ1 was repaired by his sou Charles
twenty-live years afterward, renovated by
E. A. Sothern 11 quarter of u century later,
and finally restored by Edwin Booth In IN'.MI.
Not many weeks back n poor wretch of
an assassin named Keiniulorsuirored death
by electricity In 0110 of New York's state
prisons. It Is said that nearly every per
son present at tho execution lugged 11 way
some portion of tho man's body or clothes
ns a memento of the event. The same pas
sion for souvenirs has destro)ed root and
branch the "famous apple tree" under
which Oram didn't receive Leo's surren
der, and scattered the furniture of tho
house In which hu did. Were It not for
careful guardianship the souvenirs of
Washington would l.o dispersed in twenty
four hours, and the Declaration of Inde
pendence torn into bits by "pickers up of
unconsidered trllles.''
I know one of this class of people. Ho
figures with half a do.eu others as the
"Co." In a big dry goods house. Ills In
come Is a lair one; he Is an excellent busi
ness man and an itircctionutc father and
husband. But he never enters a public
building without surreptitiously writing
his name oil tho walls. He devices statues
In the same way. and slyly tries to chin
hits for relics. -When Iniciiir lie eutsdg-J
natures rrom Hotel registers nud other
books In widen noted men write their
names. At the Hotel Lafayette, Lake Miu
ueiouka, Minn., one season those who
knew his weakness entered In tho reg'ster
"autographs" of II. Rider Haggard, Hob
urt Louis Stevenson and similar worthies.
These now adorn his "collection," and uro

earth from the battle Held of (ic ityshurg,
a Husk of .Ionian water and a phial con
taining a tear which fell from the eye of
the statue of St. .lanuarias, Like the men
already mentioned he wouldn't hesitatu a

A Trench Nmellst's liiiiiuelerliiK,
Tlie assertion that literary men know
little about financial alTuirs hardly holds
good in the case of Balzac, the famous
French novelist He w'us approached lu
the interest of a forthcoming book by M.
Ctirmur. H.ilzuu agrex'd to aid the project
on comlltinu that tho work should include
a study of himself and his work, to bu
written by Theophllu fiauiler. Curmer
agreed. Balzac rushed to the Rue do Nn
vurlii, where Haulier was then living, and
offered him tho commission, which was ae
copted with Joy.
"Tho price," wild Balzac, "will lie sou
francs." Theophllu soon wrote the article
and took It himself to the publisher, but
was too modest to ask for payment. A
week passed, n fortnight passed, and ho
heard nothing moro of the article or of
Balzac. One (lay Balzac came to see him,
ami said, "I do not 'know how to thank
)0ti. Your article Is n masterpiece. As I
thought ready money might not come
amiss to ) 011, I have brought thu amount
agreed 011 with me." So saying he put
down 250 f r incs.
"But," said (Jautler timidly, "I thought
) on said It was to bo W0 francs. Of course
it was in) mistake."
"Not a; all," Balzau replied; ")ou are
perfectly right. It was to bu 500 francs.
But just Ih-iik a moment. If t had neer
lived you could never hnvu said all the
flnu tlilugi )oii hnvu said of me. That Is
obvious. Without my existence there
would have been no article; without tho
article there would have Is-eu no money.
Very well, I take half the money as thu
subject of tho article. 1 give you half as
its author Is not this Justice'"
