He was a pretty old man; that was
apparent, nis hair was white and his
beard was white. He walked with a
canc. but, says the Chicago Tribune, he
was able to look out for himself and .
get around reasonably well.
"Most eighty-one," he said, as he took
a big black pipe out of his mouth.
"And you've smoked all your life?"
asked the young man who had stopped
to speak to him.
"Pretty much all," he replied. "I've
smoked some sixty-odd years."
"And it hasn't hurt you?" |
"Well, I don't know, young man, I
don't quite know about that. My wife
"MOST EIGHTY-ONE," HE 6AID.
has always told me that it hurt me, an'
my father when he was alive used to
say it was bad for my health."
"But it doesn't seem to have hurt
you?"
"Now don't be too hasty. I ain't just
sure about that. I set great store by
what my wife an' my father say, and I
don't advise any young man to begin
smokin'."
"Yes, of course, ftut you've smoked,
and you've lived to a good old age."
"Yes, that's aU right. But there's no
tellin', yoong man, how old I'd a' been
now if I hadn't smoked. It's a bad
habit that I sort o' worked into before
I knew it."
, Planted by Franklin.
On the old Boston and New Haven
turnpike in the southern part of New
London county, Conn., is an old mile
stone, notched and moss-grown, that
was set there by Benjamin Franklin.
When the highway was laid out Frank
lin got the job of setting its milestones,
and he did it in an original way. He
set out from Boston in a comfortable
chaise that he had built, and a gang of
men followed him with a team that con
veyed the stones. Franklin's vehicle
had a peculiar machine that marked
the miles according to the revolutions
of one of its wheels. He drove all the
way between Boston and the Elm city.
This historic stone is alongside of the
John Champion farm in Lyme.

THE
MISCKL ANKOt'S
REMAINS THE LEADER.
BirtingtotiU Will Not Affect
Ills political Position.
The position cf Lord llartmgton as :
leader of the ilis idents will remain on
altered on his poing into the house of
lords, writes the Chicago News' London i
correspondent. The papers teem with j
speculation as to whether Mr. .lo'cph
Chamberlain oi- Sir Henry James will
become the virtual head of the party.
The question, however, was really set
tled long ago, during the illness from
which the late duke of Devonshire re
covered. Under the concurrence of
Lord Salisbury, who was then vainljr
negotiating for the absorption of Lord
Hartington by the conservative party,
it was determined that Lord Ilartmg-
THE !TF.W DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE.
ton would retain the nominal and
actual leadership, Mr. Chamberlain
taking the lead in the house of com
mons. "Sir Ilenry James declined even
to place himself in competition with
Mr. Chamberlain.
The old liberals are forming a strong
wing of the dissidents, who distrust Mr.
Chamberlain's tendency to radicalism.
The conservatives continue to be shy
toward a politician with whom they
have little in common except unionism.
But the tory leaders have tested Mr.
Chamberlain's willingness and capacity
to work in unison with them. Conserv
ative members generally admit his
frankness and integrity as a coworker,
while the unionists equally recognize
his powers as a debater. His less
known qualities as a tactician and his
personal courtesy and mental alertness,
however, make him the only possible
commander of the party in tha house of
commons.
Lord Hartington, on assuming the
dukedom, obtains the garter which Mr.
Gladstone obtained for the deceased
duke and which is thus inherited in suc
cession. Such an honor is most un
usual. but Lord Salisbury, owing the
existence of his ministry to Lord Hart
ington and being unable otherwise to
repay his services, is desirous that the
new duke shall accept the garter.
The following is an outline of the
career of the duke of Devonshire: Born
1833; appointed a lord of the admiralty
March, 1863; under secretary for war
April, 1863; secretary for war February,
1660, and quitted office July following;
was postmaster general from Decem
ber, 1868, to January, 1871, and Irish
secretary from January, 1871, to Febru
ary, 1874; was Indian secretary from
April, 1880, to December, 1883, and sec
retary for war from latter date till
June, ISBS.
