Tho Situation of PlaUamouth,
This .town is now in need of
active ami cordial cooperative of
its business men more than any
thing else. Ihe hot weather' is
about ended and all will feel more
like turning out now. One good ses
sion of the board iif trade will do
more good right now than any other
one thing. If at nucha gathering
a two-thirds attend. mceof members
could be' secured much good would
be accomplished. The board of
trade and council committees have
labored very earnestly agaiuts what
weeined, for a time, ovewhelniin g
odds. They liave been victorious.
The discouragement that for a
while wax indisputable, owing to
the rumors in regard to the It. M.
shops, has been thoroughly over
come and the tide is now Htrongly
llowing toward I'lattsmoutli.
This is .as we knew it would be
and for what we contended. Aided

The Hotel Del Monte ut Monterey,
Cal., is stirred up over a ludit mus miV
take by which a prosaic Lugli.sli iner
chant was lioniedas Kobert L'lichanan,
poet and dramatist.
The llrit c hi arrived at the hotel thrm
days ago with two friends, lie regis
tered in a line, literary hand, and as he
hero a strong resemblance to the author
several ladies present declared he must
he the author of "The Shadow of the
Sword." So several ladies desired him
to write his autograph in their albums
with Mime poetical sentiment. He re
ceived nil their flattery complacently,
hut grinding out poetry for them kept
him up all night ami the result was
Bimiething to shako confidence in their
idol. ,
The next day ho was the center of an
admiring group. His companions be
came suspicious anil nsked tho hotel
clerk why so much attention was paid
their friend. They were ntnazed when
they learned the trim reason, because
they declared their friend hud never
heard of lluchanun. T -j broke the
news gently to him, tint ' s conceit re
ceived a great shock. A' .'.iree packed

it is not generally known that the
brothers Oscar and Willie Wilde first
canu to public notice on the occasion of
the centenary of Thomas Moore at Dub
lin about fifteen years ago. It was pro
posed to perform tin ode spe ially writ
ten for the occasion by Mr. S, N. Klring
ton and compos, d by the well known
Irish composer, John William (ilovcr.
The Wilde brothers, assisted bv Mr.
Sexton, the member for West lielfa-t,
and then on the stafT of The Nation, led
u furious and successful opposition
against the official adoption t,f the
Nolan-tilover ode.
It may be only a coincidence that the
niui-ie to "The Poet and Puppets" at the
Comedy theiitir is written by a grand
noil of the rejected composer. Irish

The practice of binding- religious per
nous still exists in India, ius is evidenced
by tho following from the Allahabad
(Iuiha) Pioneer. The incident occurred
recently at Meerut:. A fakir, wearing
nearly fho maiinds . (lull pounds) of
iron chains ami baiuls on him, recently
left the cantonment station. The rail
way authorities declined to allow him to
travel as a passenger, but sent him iu
goods by weight, in pite of his argu
ment that native womn were never
charged for their anklets and bangles.
The iron absorbed the heat so much
that tho man had to be imess-mtlv
sprinkled with water. He is an old
man anu nearly cited at the station.
